具体实施方式
下面将结合本公开实施例中的附图,对本公开实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本公开一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本公开中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
在柔性显示模组的制作中当采用光学胶将各膜层结构进行粘合时,由于相邻的膜层之间均通过光学胶进行粘合,且柔性显示模组在弯折的过程中,膜层与膜层之间会发生一定的相对位移(应变);在此情况下,如果 该光学胶的弹性模量过大,则膜层与膜层之间发生相对位移比较困难,且在同等的弯曲应变情况下需要的应力比较大,即柔性显示模组整体弯曲需要的力度较大,无法适合可弯曲的产品结构和机械结构设计,并且在应力较大的情况下,容易导致光学胶膜层的脱落,以及其他功能膜层的功能受损。如果该光学胶的弹性模量过小,则该光学胶的粘附力就比较小,不容易满足要求,并且该光学胶与相邻的界面的弹性模量的差值较大,在弯曲应变中,应力主要集中在交界面,形变也主要发生在交界面,从而会降低该柔性显示模组的信赖性。
本公开一些实施例提供一种胶膜,如图1所示,在沿该胶膜100的厚度方向O-O’上,该胶膜100的弹性模量K呈中间小、两侧大分布,其中图1中胶膜100中颜色深浅代表弹性模量K的大小,具体的颜色较深的位置处表示弹性模量K较大,颜色较浅的位置处表示弹性模量K较小。
此处需要说明的是,上述胶膜100可以是应用于任何需要弯曲的产品中,作为粘合相邻结构之间的粘合层。例如可以是应用于柔性显示领域、具有较好透光效果的光学胶;也可以是其他领域的非透明的胶膜,对此不做限定。以下实施例均是以该胶膜100为光学胶为例进行相关的说明。
光学胶一般采用以下组分:聚氨酯丙烯酸、丙烯酸酯、光引发剂、偶联剂、其他助剂等组成。
上述光学胶膜的弹性模量K可以通过调整上述组分的具体成分以及含量来获取。例如,可以选用官能度较高的聚氨酯丙烯酸,和/或,分子链段较长的丙烯酸酯;也可以采用特殊改性的组分单体;还可以采用其他的方法,以获取实际需要大小的弹性模量K的光学胶膜。
在本公开的一些实施例中,上述胶膜100可以为双面胶膜。
综上所述,由于该胶膜位于两侧的粘结面处具有较大的弹性模量,而中间位置处具有较小的弹性模量,这样一来,在应用于柔性显示模组时,一方面,该胶膜与柔性模组中相邻的功能层进行粘合位置处的较大弹性模量能够保证该胶膜与相邻的功能层之间具有较大的粘附力,从而能够保证整个显示模组粘合组装的可靠性;另一方面,该胶膜中间位置的较小弹性模量能够保证在适当的应力下,该柔性显示模组具有足够的弯曲应变,也即保证了柔性显示模组的弯曲力度和弯曲半径,从而增加了该柔性显示模组的信赖性。
以下对上述在沿该胶膜100的厚度方向O-O’上,该胶膜100的弹性模 量K呈中间小、两侧大分布的具体情况做出说明。
例如,上述中间小、两侧大分布可以为阶梯式先减小后增加的分布。
胶膜100在沿其厚度O-O’方向上,可以如图2所示,包括至少三层子膜101,其中,同一子膜101的任一位置处的弹性模量K相同,图2是以该胶膜100包括六层子膜101(A、B、C、D、E、F)为例进行说明。
如图3所示(图2中子膜的弹性模量大小的条形分布图),该六层子膜101的弹性模量K沿其厚度O-O’方向上,位于外侧的A子膜101的弹性模量K最大为600Kpa,并向内侧的子膜101减小,位于中间的D子膜101的弹性模量K最小为20Kpa,然后向胶膜100的另一侧子膜101的弹性模量K增加,位于该侧的F子膜101的弹性模量K为500Kpa。当然图3中的具体数值仅为举例说明,本公开并不限制于此,在此情况下,胶膜100在沿其厚度O-O’方向上,由一侧向另一侧呈阶梯式先减小后增加的分布。
又例如,上述中间小、两侧大分布为渐变式先减小后增加的分布,该胶膜100在沿其厚度O-O’方向上,该胶膜100为整体结构,可以通过控制制备工艺来实现。
例如,通过控制胶层进行光固化时的光照强度,来实现对胶膜100的厚度方向O-O’上弹性模量K的控制,由于胶层中间位置距离光源相对较远,因此弹性模量K较小,而胶层两侧位置距离光源相对较近,因此弹性模量K较大,从而使得胶膜100在沿其厚度O-O’方向上,呈渐变式先减小后增加的分布;例如,如图4所示,从胶膜100的表面S1的弹性模量K的大小从最大值600Kpa开始递减,减小至中间位置的弹性模量K最小为20Kpa后,开启递增,增加至胶膜100的另一表面S2的弹性模量K的大小为500Kpa,其中,图4中的具体数值仅为举例说明;当然也可以控制其他制作参数,本公开对此不作限定。
需要说明的是,上述胶膜100的厚度方向O-O’上的中间位置,是指在厚度方向O-O’上除了胶膜100两侧的表面以外,位置两侧的表面之间的区域位置,并不是绝对意义上的中间位置。
本公开一些实施例还提供一种柔性显示模组,该柔性显示模组包括多个功能层,且至少一组相邻的功能层之间采用上述的主要由光学胶材料制成的胶膜100进行粘合,由于该柔性显示模组包括如上所述的胶膜,具有与前述实施例提供的胶膜相同的结构和有益效果。由于前述实施例已经对 胶膜的结构和有益效果进行了详细的描述,此处不再赘述。
在一些实施例中,如图5所示,该柔性显示模组可以为OLED(Organic Light-Emitting Diode,有机发光二极管)柔性显示模组,该OLED柔性显示模组包括多个相邻的功能层,例如,OLED显示器件01、以及位于OLED显示器件01的出光侧的圆偏光片02(Circular Polarizer,CPOL)、以及触控面板03(Touch)、封装盖板04(Cover)等、位于OLED显示器件01的背光侧的其他功能膜(石墨片、金属膜片等)等,其中,至少一组相邻的功能层之间采用上述光学胶材料的胶膜100进行粘合。
可选的,在柔性显示模组包括至少三组相邻的功能层的情况下,例如,图5中包括四组相邻的功能层;本公开可选的,该至少三组相邻的功能层中位于中间位置的一组相邻的功能层之间采用上述胶膜100进行粘合,这样一来,所有胶层中该胶膜100位于中间位置,从而能够使得该胶膜100的上下两部分各自形成体系且不同体系之间互不影响,中间的胶膜100在弯折过程中能够有效的起到吸收和平衡应力的作用,进而能有效的降低对各功能层的损坏。
此处需要说明的是,上述一组相邻的功能层是指,任一相邻的两个功能层,不同组的相邻的功能层之间可以具有相同的功能层,例如图5中包括五个功能层,则具有四组相邻的功能层,OLED显示器件01与圆偏光片02为一组相邻的功能层,圆偏光片02与触控面板03为一组相邻的功能层等。另外,上述中间位置的一组相邻的功能层是指,除了两侧的两组相邻的功能层以外,位于中间位置的相邻的功能层,例如图5中,OLED显示器件01与圆偏光片02、圆偏光片02与触控面板03,均可以视为中间位置的相邻的功能层,即可以在圆偏光片02与触控面板03之间设置胶膜100,或者在圆偏光片02与触控面板03之间设置胶膜100,从而能够使得显示器件01和触控面板03位于不同的体系,进而降低了对降低了对显示器件01和触控面板03的损坏。
可选的,所有相邻的功能层之间可以均采用上述胶膜100进行粘合,以最大程度的保证在适当的应力下,该柔性显示模组具有足够的弯曲应变,从而有效的保证了柔性显示模组的弯曲力度和弯曲半径,增加该柔性显示模组的信赖性。
此外,如图6所示,以上述相邻的功能层为第一功能层10和第二功能层20,且第一功能层10和第二功能层20通过胶膜100进行粘合为例,本 公开的一些实施例中,胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2与第一功能层10的弹性模量K1的差值小于或等于10Kpa,即|K1-K2|≤10;和/或,胶膜100粘合第二功能层20位置处的弹性模量K3与第二功能层20的弹性模量K4的差值小于或等于10Kpa,即|K3-K4|≤10。
示例性的,若|K1-K2|>10,即K1-K2>10,或者K2-K1>10;胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2与第一功能层10的弹性模量K1的差值过大,一方面,胶膜100与第一功能层10之间的粘合力较小,不能有效的保证两者之间的粘结效果;另一方面,K1-K2>10的情况下,胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2较大,会使得整个柔性模组的弯曲应力较大,不利于柔性模组的弯曲,因此本公开的一些实施例中可选的的,胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2与第一功能层10的弹性模量K1的差值小于或等于10Kpa,即|K1-K2|≤10。
此处需要说明的是,上述胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2与第一功能层10的弹性模量K1的差值小于或等于10Kpa,即|K1-K2|≤10的基础上,为了进一步保证柔性显示模组的弯曲,可选的,胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2比第一功能层10的弹性模量K1小,例如可以设置,胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2比第一功能层10的弹性模量K1小5Kpa。
同样在另一些实施例中的,胶膜100粘合第二功能层20位置处的弹性模量K3与第二功能层20的弹性模量K4的差值小于或等于10Kpa,即|K3-K4|≤10;胶膜100粘合第二功能层20位置处的弹性模量K3小于第二功能层20的弹性模量K4的弹性模量K4,具体理由同上,此处不再赘述。
此处需要说明的是,上述胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2与胶膜100粘合第二功能层20位置处的弹性模量K3可以相等,也可以不相等,具体设置情况需要根据第一功能层10和第二功能层20的弹性模量的大小而定。例如,若第一功能层10和第二功能层20的弹性模量相等,则可以设置胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处的弹性模量K2与胶膜100粘合第二功能层20位置处的弹性模量K3相等;当然,若第一功能层10和第二功能层20的弹性模量不相等,则可以如图3所示,设置胶膜100粘合第一功能层10位置处(A子膜)的弹性模量K2与胶膜100粘合第二功能层20位置处(F子膜)的弹性模量K3不相等;但本公开并不限制于此。
此外,示例性的,上述胶膜100的厚度可以为50μm~400μm。
可选的,若胶膜100厚度大于400μm,整个胶膜100厚度较大,会使得通过该胶膜100粘合的柔性显示模组的厚度过大,不利于实现显示面板的轻薄化设计理念;若胶膜100厚度小于50μm,该胶膜100的厚度过小,不能有效的在适当的应力下,使得该柔性显示模组具有足够的弯曲应变,因此本公开可选的,胶膜100的厚度为50μm~400μm,例如,可以是在100μm~350μm。
在此基础上,示例性的,胶膜100的弹性模量可以分布于10Kpa~1000Kpa的区间内。
可选的,若胶膜100的弹性模量大于1000Kpa,会对整个柔性显示模组的弯曲力度和弯曲半径造成不良影响,不利于柔性显示模组的弯曲应变;若胶膜100的弹性模量小于10Kpa,则粘结力受到限制,不利于柔性显示模组中各功能层之间的粘合,因此,本公开可选的,胶膜100的弹性模量分布于10Kpa~1000Kpa的区间内例如,可以是在20Kpa~600Kpa的范围内。
本公开一些实施例还提供一种胶膜的制备方法:
将依次设置的至少三层子膜通过层压的方式结合为一整体的胶膜,其中,沿胶膜的厚度方向O-O’上,依次设置的至少三层子膜的弹性模量呈中间小、两侧大分布,且同一子膜的任一位置处的弹性模量相同。
以紫外光固化光学胶为例,示例性的上述方法可以包括:首先可以通过混合不同配比或者不同组分的光学胶试剂,通过搅拌、除泡等工艺形成不同的液态光学胶;然后在基板上形成液态的光学胶膜;最后通过紫外光进行固化,分别形成不同弹性模量的子膜。
接下来,将不同弹性模量的子膜,沿厚度方向O-O’上,按照弹性模量呈中间小、两侧大分布,通过层压的方式结合为一整体的胶膜。
本公开实施例还提供另一种胶膜的制备方法:
将具有不同弹性模量的胶材,按照弹性模量先减小后增大的分布顺序依次进行涂布,以形成胶膜。
以紫外光固化光学胶为例,示例性的上述方法可以包括:首先可以通过混合不同配比或者不同组分的光学胶试剂,通过搅拌、除泡等工艺形成不同的液态光学胶(经紫外光固化后的胶膜具有不同的弹性模量)。
接下来,在基板上按照弹性模量先减小后增大的分布顺序依次进行涂 布,然后通过紫外光固化,形成胶膜。
以上所述,仅为本公开的具体实施方式,但本公开的保护范围并不局限于此,任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本公开揭露的技术范围内,可轻易想到变化或替换,都应涵盖在本公开的保护范围之内。因此,本公开的保护范围应以所述权利要求的保护范围为准。
