Abstract

A protective film 10 of the present invention includes a base material layer and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, and is used by being attached to a resin substrate 21 at the time of performing heat bending on the resin substrate 21. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer contains a polyolefin having a melting point of lower than 125° C. The base material layer has a first layer which contains a polyolefin having a melting point of 150° C. or higher, and a second layer which contains an adhesive resin. In a case of heating the protective film 100 having such a configuration, in a state of being interposed between two attaching substrates which are formed of polycarbonate, at 145° C. for 30 minutes, peeling off one attaching substrate on the side of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer at 25° C., and then viewing a surface of the one attaching substrate in a plan view, a residual ratio of an area where the pressure sensitive adhesive layer remains is 5% or less.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A protective film for heat bending a resin substrate, comprising:
a base material layer; and
a pressure sensitive adhesive layer positioned on the base material layer and configured to be adhered to a resin substrate,
wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes a polyolefin having a melting point of lower than 125° C. as a main material, the base material layer includes a laminate having a first layer positioned on a side opposite to the pressure sensitive adhesive layer and comprising a polyolefin having a melting point of 150° C. or higher as a main material, and a second layer positioned on a side facing the pressure sensitive adhesive layer and comprising an elastomer as an adhesive resin and a polyolefin having a melting point of 150° C. or higher as a non-adhesive resin, the elastomer in the second layer of the laminate in the base material layer includes a styrene-olefin-styrene block copolymer. and a residual ratio of an area where the pressure sensitive adhesive layer remains is 5% or less when heating the protective film at 145° C. for 30 minutes in a state that the protective film is being interposed between two attaching substrates formed of polycarbonate and having a dimension of 30 cm in length×30 cm in width×2.0 mm in thickness, peeling off the attaching substrate on the side of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer under the conditions of a temperature of 25° C., a peeling angle of 90° and a pulling speed of 1,000 mm/min and viewing a surface of the attaching substrate in a plan view.

2. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein a melt flow rate of the polyolefin in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer, which is measured under the conditions of a heating temperature of 230° C. and a load of 2.16 kgf in conformity with HS K7210, is in a range of 0.5 g/10 min to 10.0 g/10.

3. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes an elastomer.

4. The protective film according to claim 3 , wherein the elastomer in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes a styrene-olefin-styrene block copolymer.

5. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the polyolefin in the second layer includes at least one of a polypropylene homopolymer and a propylene-ethylene copolymer.

6. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein a pair of protective films each comprising the protective film are respectively attached to both surfaces of the resin substrate.

7. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein a coating layer comprising a single layer or a laminate having at least one layer selected from the group consisting of a polycarbonate resin layer, a polyamide resin layer, and a cellulose resin layer is positioned on one surface or the other surface of the resin substrate, or a pair of coating layers each comprising the coating layer are respectively positioned on both surfaces of the resin substrate.

8. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the resin substrate is subjected to the heat bending by press molding or vacuum molding.

9. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes an elastomer.

10. The protective film according to claim 9 , wherein the elastomer in the pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes a styrene-olefin-styrene block copolymer.

11. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the polyolefin in the second layer has the melting point in a range of 150° C. to 170° C.

12. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein a pair of protective films each comprising the protective film are respectively attached to both surfaces of the resin substrate.

13. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein a coating layer comprising a single layer or a laminate having at least one layer selected from the group consisting of a polycarbonate resin layer, a polyamide resin layer, and a cellulose resin layer is positioned on one surface or the other surface of the resin substrate, or a pair of coating layers each comprising the coating layer are respectively positioned on both surfaces of the resin substrate.

14. The protective film according to claim 2 , wherein the resin substrate is subjected to the heat bending by press molding or vacuum molding.

15. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the polyolefin in the second layer has the melting point in a range of 155° C. to 170° C.

16. The protective film according to claim 3 , wherein a pair of protective films each comprising the protective film are respectively attached to both surfaces of the resin substrate.

17. The protective film according to claim 3 , wherein a coating layer comprising a single layer or a laminate having at least one layer selected from the group consisting of a polycarbonate resin layer, a polyamide resin layer, and a cellulose resin layer is positioned on one surface or the other surface of the resin substrate, or a pair of coating layers each comprising the coating layer are respectively positioned on both surfaces of the resin substrate.

18. The protective film according to claim 3 , wherein the resin substrate is subjected to the heat bending by press molding or vacuum molding.

19. The protective film according to claim 4 , wherein a pair of protective films each comprising the protective film are respectively attached to both surfaces of the resin substrate.

20. The protective film according to claim 1 , wherein the laminate in the base material layer is formed such that a wt % ratio of the adhesive resin and the non-adhesive resin in the second layer is in a range of 20:80 to 50:50.
