Abstract

Provided are: a composite sheet comprising a silicone matrix and a first sheet including a reinforcement material impregnated into the silicone matrix, wherein the first sheet has a compression elongation of about 30% or more; a method for manufacturing the same; and a display device including the same.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A composite sheet comprising:
a first sheet comprising a silicone matrix, and a reinforcing material impregnated in the silicone matrix,
the reinforcing material comprising at least one selected from the group consisting of glass fibers, glass fiber cloths, glass fabrics, glass non-woven cloths, and glass meshes; and
the silicone matrix comprising a cured product of a matrix composition containing a linear silicone rubber, the linear silicone rubber prepared from a composition for preparing silicone rubbers comprising phenylmethyldimethoxysilane, dimethyldimethoxysilane and vinylmethyldimethoxysilane;
wherein the first sheet has a compressive elongation of about 30% or more;
wherein the compressive elongation is the percentage (s/t×100) of an indentation length (s) relative to the total thickness of the first sheet (t) wherein the indentation length is the length in which a micro indenter is indented with a force of 1000 mN/mm 2 at 0.1 mm/sec into a window portion of the first sheet prior to breaking the silicone matrix of the first sheet, wherein the window portion is a portion of the first sheet between portions of the reinforcing material and consisting of the silicone matrix such that the micro indenter does not cross the reinforcing material while being indented into the window portion.

2. The composite sheet according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first sheet has a transmittance of about 80% or more at a thickness of 100 μm at 25° C. and at a wavelength of 550 nm after being left at 250° C. for 1 hour.
