Definitions

  • This disclosure relates generally to liquid optically clear adhesives and more particularly to polysiloxane urethane compounds for use in liquid optically clear adhesive compositions.
  • UV radiation is in the range of 100 to 400 nanometers (nm).
  • Visible light is in the range of 400 to 780 nanometers (nm).
  • UV radiation is in the range of 100 to 400 nanometers (nm).
  • visible light is in the range of 400 to 780 nanometers (nm).
  • UV radiation is in the range of 100 to 400 nanometers (nm).
  • visible light is in the range of 400 to 780 nanometers (nm).
  • complicated and special designs and opaque parts, such as those caused by ceramics and metals result in areas transparent to UV radiation and shadow areas that UV radiation and visible light cannot penetrate in display panels and touch panel devices. This is especially true for displays used in automotive display panels and other panels. These large shadow areas make it difficult to utilize adhesives that are cured by exposure to actinic radiation.
  • LOCA compositions are also used in other displays such as mobile phone screens, tablet screens and television screens and in formation of HHDD.
  • Any adhesive utilized must also be as optically clear as possible, these adhesives are typically known as Liquid Optically Clear Adhesives (LOCA). Because of the difficulty in using a radiation only curable LOCA, in some cases manufacturing processes have moved to use of LOCA that are curable by exposure to both actinic radiation and thermal energy.
  • moisture curable LOCA adhesives can bond various kinds of substrates used in these systems. These LOCA compositions can be cured by exposure to moisture in the air or on the substrate to be bonded.
  • Silicone based actinic radiation and moisture curable LOCA compositions that are currently available tend to have very low modulus and low glass transition temperatures. While they have reasonable temperature range stability they have low compatibility with current visible light photoinitiators and moisture cure catalysts making it difficult to control adequate curing. These adhesives also tend to have high moisture permeability which results in development of excessive haze under high temperature and high humidity conditions.
  • Organic acrylate based LOCA compositions have good compatibility with photoinitiators and can have low moisture permeability; however they always exhibit high shrinkage and a wide range of glass transition temperatures which causes defects or delamination from plastic substrates during thermal cycling from -40° C to 100° C.
  • silicone based and organic acrylate based LOCAs together the resulting adhesive composition has an objectionably high level of haze because of incompatibility of the two polymers.
  • any adhesive used to assemble these devices must meet several requirements including: an ability to cure in the large shadow areas where actinic radiation cannot penetrate; the ability to cure acceptably even when the actinic radiation is minimized by having to first pass through overlying plastic substrates; the ability to bond to a variety of materials including those formed from polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polycarbonate (PC) and/or polyethylene terephthalate (PET) a temperature ranges of from -40 to 100° C; optical clarity in the cured state and very low hazing and yellowness values under conditions of high temperature, high humidity and strong UV radiation.

  • the block organic-silicone co-polymers have terminating ends that comprise isocyanate functional groups which can be further partially or fully reacted to provide the final co-polymer with terminal (meth)acrylate and/or isocyanate functional groups.

Description

Polysiloxane Urethane Compounds and Optically Transparent Adhesive Compositions
TECHNICAL FIELD
[01] This disclosure relates generally to liquid optically clear adhesives and more particularly to polysiloxane urethane compounds for use in liquid optically clear adhesive compositions.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[02] This section provides background information which is not necessarily prior art to the inventive concepts associated with the present disclosure.
[03] Currently, in many electronic industry fields, such as the manufacture of LCD touch panels and display panels, adhesives are used to bond various substrates and assemblies together. Conventional adhesives used in such applications are cured by exposure to actinic radiation such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation or visible light. UV radiation is in the range of 100 to 400 nanometers (nm). Visible light is in the range of 400 to 780 nanometers (nm). However, complicated and special designs and opaque parts, such as those caused by ceramics and metals result in areas transparent to UV radiation and shadow areas that UV radiation and visible light cannot penetrate in display panels and touch panel devices. This is especially true for displays used in automotive display panels and other panels. These large shadow areas make it difficult to utilize adhesives that are cured by exposure to actinic radiation. These LOCA compositions are also used in other displays such as mobile phone screens, tablet screens and television screens and in formation of HHDD. Any adhesive utilized must also be as optically clear as possible, these adhesives are typically known as Liquid Optically Clear Adhesives (LOCA). Because of the difficulty in using a radiation only curable LOCA, in some cases manufacturing processes have moved to use of LOCA that are curable by exposure to both actinic radiation and thermal energy.
[04] In addition to the radiation curable adhesives and thermally curable adhesives, conventional moisture curable LOCA adhesives can bond various kinds of substrates used in these systems. These LOCA compositions can be cured by exposure to moisture in the air or on the substrate to be bonded. [05] Silicone based actinic radiation and moisture curable LOCA compositions that are currently available tend to have very low modulus and low glass transition temperatures. While they have reasonable temperature range stability they have low compatibility with current visible light photoinitiators and moisture cure catalysts making it difficult to control adequate curing. These adhesives also tend to have high moisture permeability which results in development of excessive haze under high temperature and high humidity conditions. Organic acrylate based LOCA compositions have good compatibility with photoinitiators and can have low moisture permeability; however they always exhibit high shrinkage and a wide range of glass transition temperatures which causes defects or delamination from plastic substrates during thermal cycling from -40° C to 100° C. When one combines silicone based and organic acrylate based LOCAs together the resulting adhesive composition has an objectionably high level of haze because of incompatibility of the two polymers.
[06] Any adhesive used to assemble these devices must meet several requirements including: an ability to cure in the large shadow areas where actinic radiation cannot penetrate; the ability to cure acceptably even when the actinic radiation is minimized by having to first pass through overlying plastic substrates; the ability to bond to a variety of materials including those formed from polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polycarbonate (PC) and/or polyethylene terephthalate (PET) a temperature ranges of from -40 to 100° C; optical clarity in the cured state and very low hazing and yellowness values under conditions of high temperature, high humidity and strong UV radiation. There remains a need for a LOCA adhesive composition that can fulfill these criteria and that is curable by both exposure to actinic radiation and moisture.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[025] The present disclosure is directed toward preparation of polysiloxane urethane polymers that comprise terminal functional groups selected from (meth)acrylate, isocyanate, or mixtures thereof and use of these polymers in liquid optically clear adhesive (LOCA) compositions. The LOCA compositions preferably comprise: (A) the terminally
functionalized polysiloxane urethane polymers according to the present disclosure; (B) optionally, (meth)acrylate monomers; (C) at least one photoinitiator; (D) optionally, an organometallic catalyst; and (E) optionally additional processing aids. The LOCA
compositions prepared according to the present disclosure are curable by exposure to at least one of and preferably by both ultraviolet (UV)/ visible light and moisture.
The polysiloxane urethane polymers that are terminally functionalized with (meth)acrylate, isocyanate, or mixtures thereof according to the present disclosure incorporate multiple organic segments and multiple silicone segments in the same polymer backbone. They are formed by reacting a hydroxyl terminated organopolysiloxane with an excess of equivalents of organic polyisocyanate or diisocyanate to form an organic-silicone block co-polymer that has a clear appearance.
[026] The block organic-silicone co-polymers have terminating ends that comprise isocyanate functional groups which can be further partially or fully reacted to provide the final co-polymer with terminal (meth)acrylate and/or isocyanate functional groups. These terminal (meth)acrylate and/or isocyanate functional groups provide photocuring and moisture curing, respectively, to the polymers. The formed polysiloxane urethane polymers that are terminally functionalized with (meth)acrylate, isocyanate, or mixtures thereof and LOCA compositions formed from them have surprisingly improved compatibility with
photoinitiators and moisture cure catalysts compared to conventional LOCA adhesives. They also have lower moisture permeability than the silicone polymers and lower shrinkage compared to the organic acrylate polymers. These features make them ideal for many applications such as bonding of automotive displays and other structures, especially where both radiation curing and moisture curing are desirable.
Component (A)
[027] The compositions include the terminally functionalized polysiloxane urethane polymers. The terminally functionalized polysiloxane urethane polymers can be prepared by reacting a hydroxy terminated organopolysiloxanes and an organic polyisocyanate to form a polysiloxane urethane intermediate. The equivalents balance of OH to NCO moieties during the reaction should be chosen to provide the polysiloxane urethane intermediate with isocyanate functionality. Preferably an excess of isocyanate moieties is used to ensure that the polysiloxane urethane intermediate has only terminal isocyanate groups.
[028] Some useful hydroxyl terminated organopolysiloxanes have the following structure:

Each R1 is independently chosen from C1-C12 alkyl, preferably Ci-C6 alkyl, C2-Cl2 alkylether e.g. one or more O atoms between the C atoms, C3-C6 alicyclic and phenyl. Any R1 can be independently substituted in any position by alkyl, alkoxy, halogen or epoxy moieties. Each R2 is independently chosen from Cl -Cl 2 alkyl, preferably C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C6 alicyclic and phenyl. Any R2 can be independently substituted in any position by alkyl, alkoxy, halogen or epoxy moieties n can be an integer up to about 2,000, but n is more typically an integer from 1 to 200, preferably 5 to 200 and more preferably 10 to 150. Exemplary hydroxyl terminated organopolysiloxanes include the carbinol terminated polydimethylsiloxanes available from Gelest, Inc. and the linear polydimethylsiloxane propylhydroxy copolymers available from Siltech Corp and KF 6001, KF 6002 and KF 6003 available from Shin-Etsu Chemical. The Shin-Etsu Chemical materials are believed to have molecular weights from 1,000 to 10,000 and n values from 12 to 120.
[029] The organic polyisocyanate is preferably an organic diisocyanate monomer.
Some suitable organic diisocyanate monomers include aliphatic diisocyanates. Useful aliphatic diisocyanates include hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), methylene dicyclohexyl diisocyanate or hydrogenated MDI (HMDI) and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI). Aromatic diisocyanates can develop haze and/or coloration and are not preferred for applications where optical clarity is desired.
[030] The isocyanate functional polysiloxane urethane intermediate is reacted with compounds containing a group reactive with isocyanate moieties (e.g. hydroxy, amine, mercapto). Some useful compounds containing an isocyanate reactive group can have the formula:
HmZ-R3-R4 where m is an integer from 1 to 2; Z is selected from O, N and S; R3 is selected from a covalent bond, alkyl, alkylether, ether, polyether, ester, polyester, carbonate, polycarbonate; and R4 is selected from (meth)acrylate and C1-C12 alkyl. Some useful methacrylate containing compounds are hydroxyl group containing mono(meth)acrylates and hydroxyl group containing polyether mono(meth)acrylates.

Test Methods
[038] The viscosity of each polymer was measured at 25° C at 12 reciprocal seconds using a cone and plate rheometer. The results are reported in units of millipascal seconds (mPa s).
[039] “The ultraviolet (UV) curing was conducted using a metal halide lamp or a
UV-LED array (405 nm) with UV irradiation energy of about 3000 mJ/cm2 or more. Shore 00 hardness was measured according to ASTM D2240. Laminated samples were prepared by placing a layer of adhesive between two glass slides, the layer having a coating thickness of 300 microns (m), and then curing the adhesive by UV light as described previously. After the samples were cured they were tested for transmittance and the yellowness b* value using a V- 660 UV/vis spectrophotometer available from JASCO Corporation and haze value using HM- 150 hazemeter available from Murakami Color Research Laboratory in compliance with ASTM D1003. Thereafter the samples were subjected to reliability testing conditions and the measurements were repeated. The laminated samples were then placed at high temperature, 90 ° C, high humidity/high temperature, 85 0 C/85 % RH and QUV condition, 1 W/m2, using QUV/se available from Q-Lab Corporation, for up to 1,000 hours to observe if any defects developed after aging.”
[040] Moisture curing was conducted in a humidity chamber at 23±2° C., 50±l0% relative humidity (RH). UV and moisture dual curing was performed by first curing the compositions with the mercury arc light and then the adhesives were placed in a humidity chamber and moisture cured for the indicated period of time. Shore 00 hardness was measured according to ASTM D2240.
[041] The photo rheometer measurements were performed at 25° C using an Anton
Paar rheometer MCR302 using Light guide Omnicure 2000 with an intensity of 100 mw/cm2.
[042] Unless otherwise specified molecular weight is weight average molecular weight Mw. The weight average molecular weight Mw, is generally determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC, also known as SEC) at 23 °C using a polystyrene standard. This method is known to one skilled in the art. Example 1
