Abstract

Crosslinkable adhesive compound comprising at least a first base polymer component having functional groups suitable for covalent crosslinking and for coordinative crosslinking, and comprising at least one covalent crosslinker and at least one coordinative crosslinker, wherein the coordinative crosslinker is present in molar excess in relation to the covalent crosslinker.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A crosslinkable adhesive comprising
at least one first polyacrylate having functional groups suitable for covalent crosslinking and for coordinative crosslinking,
at least one covalent crosslinker,
and at least one coordinative crosslinker,

wherein
the coordinative crosslinker is present in a molar excess over the covalent crosslinker;
the covalent crosslinkers are present in a total amount of 0.015 to 0.04 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the polyacrylate;
the coordinative crosslinkers are present in a total amount of 0.03 to 0.15 part by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the polyacrylate; and
the molar ratio of covalent crosslinkers to coordinative crosslinkers is in the range from 1:1.3 to 1:4.5.

2. The crosslinkable adhesive as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said crosslinkable adhesive is a pressure sensitive adhesive.

3. The crosslinkable adhesive as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the molar ratio of covalent crosslinkers to coordinative crosslinkers is in the range from to 1:2 to 1:4.

4. The crosslinkable adhesive as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the covalent crosslinkers used are polyfunctional glycidylamines, polyfunctional epoxides, polyfunctional aziridines, polyfunctional isocyanates, or combinations thereof.

5. The crosslinkable adhesive as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the covalent crosslinkers are selected from the group consisting of N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(2,3-epoxypropyl)cyclohexane-1,3-dimethylamine, N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(2,3-epoxypropyl)-m-xylene-a,a′-diamine, 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol, (3,4-epoxycyclohexane)methyl 3,4-epoxycyclohexylcarboxylate, trimethylolpropane tris(2-methyl-1-aziridinepropionate), tolylene diisocyanate (TDI), 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate dimer, naphthylene 1,5-diisocyanate (NDI), o-tolylene diisocyanate (TODI), diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), triphenylmethane triisocyanate, tris(p-isocyanatophenyl) thiophosphate and polymethylenepolyphenyl isocyanate.

6. The crosslinkable adhesive as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coordinative crosslinkers are polyvalent metal chelate compounds.

7. The crosslinkable adhesive as claimed in claim 3 , wherein Al(III), Zr(IV), or Ti(IV) chelate compounds, or combinations thereof, are selected as coordinative crosslinkers.

8. The crosslinkable adhesive as claimed in claim 1 , consisting of:
(a) at least the first base component having
(a1) as first polymer component, a base polymer component composed of a homopolymer, a copolymer, or a homogeneous mixture of two or more homopolymers, two or more copolymers, or one or more homopolymers with one or more copolymers,
with at least one of the homopolymers or at least one of the copolymers of the base polymer component having functional groups for crosslinking,

(a2) optionally further constituents, homogeneously miscible with or soluble in the base polymer component,

(b) optionally a second component having
(b1) polymers not homogeneously miscible with the base polymer,
(b2) optionally further constituents not homogeneously miscible with and not soluble in the base polymer, with such further constituents being wholly or partly homogeneously miscible with the optional further polymer component (b);

(c) crosslinkers
(c1) at least the one covalent crosslinker,
(c2) at least the one coordinative crosslinker,

and
(d) optionally solvents or solvent residues.

9. The crosslinkable adhesive of claim 1 , wherein functional groups for covalent crosslinking and for coordinative crosslinking, acid groups are utilized.

10. A crosslinked adhesive obtainable by crosslinking the crosslinkable adhesive of claim 1 .

11. The crosslinked adhesive as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the maximum shear travel “max” in the microshear travel test (method), under the measuring conditions specified therein, on repeated microshear travel measurement, changes by not more than 5% within a period of 48 hours when the adhesive is stored at room temperature (23° C.) under otherwise standard conditions.

12. The crosslinkable adhesive of claim 7 , wherein the coordinative crosslinker is Al(III) acetylacetonate.
