Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a novel pressure-sensitive adhesive composition which has a small change in cohesive force and adhesive force with time even under high temperature or high temperature and high humidity and is excellent in curved surface adhesive force. In particular, the present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition suitable for adhering an optical film and a substrate.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, conventionally used pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions or their applied products such as pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes and pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets can be adhered to various surfaces of an application body at room temperature under a pressure of about finger pressure. Is used for. However, when the composition or its applied article is exposed to high temperature or high temperature and high humidity conditions after being adhered to the adherend surface, it has a drawback of peeling from the adherend surface, and its application is also restricted. It is the actual situation.

In order to solve these problems, a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition exhibiting adhesiveness that can be used even under conditions of high temperature, high humidity, or water, for example, vinyl silane, epoxy silane, methacryl silane is added to an acrylic polymer. A pressure-sensitive adhesive composition containing at least one selected from the group (Japanese Patent Publication No. 62-30233), and an adhesive containing an epoxy group-containing silane compound in an acrylic resin having a hydroxyl group capable of reacting with an epoxy group. Composition (JP-A-61-7)
369), a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition obtained by blending an isocyanate group-containing organosilicon compound with an acrylic resin copolymerized with an ethylenically unsaturated monomer capable of reacting with an isocyanate group (JP-A-1-158080). Proposed.

[0004]

However, in the technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 62-30233, the bonding strength between the acrylic polymer and the silane compound is weak, so that the improvement of the adhesive strength is small and the cohesive strength is small. It is still unsatisfactory in terms of obtaining a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition whose change with time is small. Further, in the technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-7369, the reaction between the glycidyl group and the hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resin is slow, and it is difficult to cure at room temperature. When a catalyst is used, water resistance and moisture resistance are extremely reduced.

Further, in the technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1-158087, although the above-mentioned room temperature curability is improved, a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition which does not deteriorate in water resistance and humidity resistance with time is obtained. An adherend with a curved surface that requires adhesive strength,
For example, the adhesive performance to a curved surface portion of a film type liquid crystal or a liquid crystal display body having a curved surface in a label application or an optical application (adhesive application between an optical film and a glass substrate) in which a curved surface is selected as an adherend is described in the above publication. Including the above, no consideration is given, and the application of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is also restricted. As a result of a detailed study conducted by the present inventors on this point, in consideration of diversification of pressure-sensitive adhesive applications, the above-mentioned technique, that is, each component such as a silane compound in the acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive immediately before coating on each base material, Sufficient tackiness cannot be obtained only by the technique of blending an isocyanate group-containing organosilicon compound or the like, and there is still room for improvement in order to obtain a sufficiently satisfactory pressure-sensitive adhesive composition.

On the basis of the above background, therefore, there is little change in cohesive force and adhesive force with time even under high temperature or high temperature and high humidity, and a curved surface is selected as an adherend or a film type liquid crystal having a curved surface or It is desired to develop a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition that is excellent in the adhesive force (curved surface adhesive force) to an adherend having a curved surface such as a liquid crystal display. In particular, polarizing plate, retardation plate,
In optical applications such as elliptically polarizing plates, the application frequency thereof is high, and such adhesive compositions can be greatly utilized.

[0007]

However, the inventors of the present invention have conducted extensive studies to solve the above problems, and as a result, the acrylic-based monomer obtained by polymerizing an acrylic-based monomer in the presence of the silicone compound represented by Chemical formula 1 The present invention has been completed by finding that an adhesive composition obtained by mixing a resin with a curing agent solves the above problems.

EFFECT OF THE INVENTION The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of the present invention shows a small effect of cohesive force and adhesive force with time even under high temperature or high temperature and high humidity, and has an excellent effect on curved surface adhesive force. In adhesion of film and various substrates such as glass, not only is it excellent in durability such as foaming and peeling of the adhesive, but its optical characteristics deteriorate even when left in a high temperature and high humidity environment for a long time. It also has the effect of not doing it.
