Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is a cover film and an electronic component package that uses the cover film as a lid material for a thermoplastic resin carrier tape, the cover film having at least a substrate layer, an intermediate layer, and a heat sealing layer having a thermoplastic resin which can be heat-sealed to a carrier tape, the intermediate layer including a metallocene straight-chain low density polyethylene, the metallocene straight-chain low density polyethylene having a TMA softening temperature of 90 to 109 ° C. according to JIS K7196, and the cover film in some instances having a release layer between the intermediate layer and the heat sealing layer.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A cover film comprising at least: a substrate layer, an intermediate layer, a heat seal layer comprising a thermoplastic resin capable of heat sealing to carrier tape, and a peel layer between the intermediate layer and the heat seal layer, wherein the intermediate layer comprises a metallocene linear low-density polyethylene, the metallocene linear low-density polyethylene has a softening temperature of 98 to 109° C. by a TMA method according to JIS K7196, and the peel layer comprises a hydrogenated automatic vinyl-conjugated diene copolymer resin that has an aromatic vinyl group content of 15 to 35 mass % with respect to 100 mass % for the entire resin, and a density if 0.890×10 3 to 0.935×10 3 (kg/m 3 ). 2. The cover film according to claim 1 , wherein one of the heat seal layer or the peel layer comprises a conductive material. 3. The cover film according to claim 2 , wherein the conductive material is conductive microparticles, in the form of either acicular or spherical microparticles, or a combination thereof. 4. An electronic component package using the cover film according to claim 1 as the lid material for a thermoplastic resin carrier tape. 5. The cover film according to claim 2 , wherein the heat seal layer comprises a conductive material. 6. The cover film according to claim 5 , wherein the heat seal layer comprises at least one of conductive tin oxide particles, conductive zinc oxide particles, or conductive titanium oxide particles that are conductive fillers, and the peel layer comprises at least one of talc particles, silica particles, alumina particles, mica particles, calcium carbonate, or magnesium carbonate.
