Abstract

A method of producing a laminated structure includes: a laminated structure that has high adhesion strength between resin layers and that is excellent in respect of working efficiency, the method including: a lamination step of preparing an intermediate laminate in which a first resin layer and a second resin layer are laminated with an adhesive resin layer interposed between the first resin layer and the second resin layer; a first molding step of molding the intermediate laminate; and a second molding step of forming a resin member on a surface of the molded intermediate laminate by injection molding using a raw material resin to obtain a laminated structure in which at least a part of the adhesive resin layer is thermally cured to be an adhesion layer. An adhesive resin composition constituting the adhesive resin layer contains at least an acrylic-based polymer, a crosslinking agent, and a thermal polymerization initiator.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of producing a laminated structure, the method comprising:
a lamination step of preparing an intermediate laminate in which a first resin layer and a second resin layer are laminated with an adhesive resin layer interposed between the first resin layer and the second resin layer;
a first molding step of molding said intermediate laminate by press molding; and
a second molding step of forming a resin member on a surface of said molded intermediate laminate by injection molding using a raw material resin to obtain the laminated structure,
wherein
an adhesive resin composition constituting said adhesive resin layer contains at least (A) an acrylic-based polymer, (B) a crosslinking agent, and (C) a thermal polymerization initiator,
during the preparation of said intermediate laminate in said lamination step, a first separator is peeled from a structure having said first separator, a second separator, and said adhesive resin layer laminated between said first separator and said second separator; an exposed surface of said adhesive resin layer is stuck to one of said first resin layer and said second resin layer; then said adhesive resin layer is pressed via said second separator using a pressing roller before said second separator is peeled; said second separator is then peeled; and an exposed surface of said adhesive resin layer is stuck to another of said first resin layer and said second resin layer,
in said first molding step, a temperature of said adhesive resin layer is 100 to 250° C., and by heating for 30 seconds to 10 minutes, a part of said adhesive resin layer is thermally cured to be an adhesion layer,
in said second molding step, a melting temperature of said raw material resin is 100 to 250° C., said (C) thermal polymerization initiator has a 1-minute half-life temperature lower than the melting temperature of said raw material resin by 20° C. or higher, a temperature of a mold for injection molding is 100 to 300° C.,
said adhesive resin layer has an adhesion strength to said first resin layer or said second resin layer of said intermediate laminate of less than 20 N/25 mm,
said adhesion layer has an adhesion strength to said first resin layer or said second resin layer of said laminated structure of 20 N/25 mm or more, and
said first resin layer, said second resin layer, and said resin member include polyester as a raw material resin.

2. The method of producing the laminated structure according to claim 1 , wherein at least an internal surface is decorated in at least either one of said first resin layer and said second resin layer.

3. The method of producing the laminated structure according to claim 1 , wherein said adhesive resin composition further comprises an acrylic-based monomer or an acrylic-based oligomer.

4. The method of producing the laminated structure according to claim 1 , wherein
said adhesive resin composition further comprises an acrylic-based monomer, and
said acrylic-based monomer is a monomer containing a hydroxyl group.

5. The method of producing the laminated structure according to claim 1 , wherein
said adhesive resin composition further comprises an acrylic-based oligomer and contains curable urethane acrylate as said acrylic-based oligomer.

6. The method of producing the laminated structure according to claim 1 , wherein said adhesion layer has a haze of 2.0% or less.

7. The method of producing the laminated structure according to claim 1 , wherein said adhesion layer has a haze of 1.0% or less and has a transmittance of visible light of 85% or more.

8. The method of producing the laminated structure according to claim 1 , wherein said adhesion layer has a thickness of 20 μm or more and 200 μm or less.
