Abstract

The present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition, an optical member, a polarizing plate, and a display device. The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition according to an embodiment of the present invention may form a pressure-sensitive adhesive which has excellent general physical properties such as coating properties, endurance reliability, or the like, and which may stably maintain the physical properties for the long term. Further, the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition may be particularly applied to various optical films, thereby forming the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer which exhibits excellent adhesion with the optical film, and when the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is applied to the polarizing plate, bending properties may be effectively prevented.

First claim

What is claimed is:

a block copolymer which has a first block having a glass transition temperature of 50° C. or more, and a second block having a crosslinkable functional group and a glass transition temperature of −10° C. or less;
a multifunctional aziridine compound, in an amount of 0.01 to 10 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the block copolymer; and
a multifunctional isocyanate compound, in an amount of 0.01 to 10 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the block copolymer,
wherein the block copolymer comprises a range of 5 to 45 parts by weight of the first block and a range of 55 to 95 parts by weight of the second block,
wherein the crosslinkable functional group is not included in the first block, and only included in the second block,
wherein the first block consists of a homopolymer derived from a methacrylic acid ester monomer,
wherein the block copolymer is a diblock copolymer having the first block and the second block, and
wherein the block copolymer has a molecular weight distribution in a range of 1.7 to 2.5.

2. The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the crosslinkable functional group is a hydroxy group or a carboxyl group.

3. The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the second block comprises a range of 90 to 99.9 parts by weight of a polymerization unit of an alkyl (meth)acrylate, and a range of 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a polymerization unit of a copolymerizable monomer having the crosslinkable functional group.

4. The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the first block has a number average molecular weight in a range of 2,500 to 100,000.

5. The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of claim 1 , wherein the block copolymer has a number average molecular weight in a range of 50,000 to 300,000.

6. A pressure-sensitive adhesive optical member comprising:
an optical film; and
a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer which is formed on one side of the optical film, and includes the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of claim 1 .

7. The pressure-sensitive adhesive optical member of claim 6 , wherein a carboxyl group is present on a surface of the optical film, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is adhered to the surface on which the carboxyl group is present.

8. The pressure-sensitive adhesive optical member of claim 6 , wherein a corona-treated layer is present between the optical film and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is adhered to the corona-treated layer.

9. A pressure-sensitive adhesive polarizing plate comprising:
a polarizer; and
a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer which is formed on one side of the polarizer, and includes the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of claim 1 .

10. The pressure-sensitive adhesive polarizing plate of claim 9 , wherein a polarizer protective film in which a carboxyl group is present on a surface is present between the polarizer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is adhered to the surface of the protective film on which the carboxyl group is present.

11. The pressure-sensitive adhesive polarizing plate of claim 9 , wherein a polarizer protective film in which a corona-treated layer is present on a surface is present between the polarizer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is adhered to the corona-treated layer.

12. A display device comprising the pressure-sensitive adhesive optical member of claim 6 .

13. A display device comprising the pressure-sensitive adhesive polarizing plate of claim 9 .
