Definitions

  • Exemplary embodiments relate generally to optical adhesives and methods for using the same to bond glass components.
  • the bonded glass components may be used in the formation of LCD stacks, glass front plates, lamination of touch panels, and other glass features found in LCD displays.
  • glass components are bonded using an optical adhesive interposed between the glass components.
  • Traditional adhesives and bonding processes are time consuming and are subject to problems/defects resulting in a display unfit for consumer use.
  • adhesives for display glass components have a two part design. A first part being a resin and a second part being a catalyst. The first and second parts are then mixed together. As the first and second parts of the adhesive contact one another they undergo a reaction and begin to cure. This immediate curing significantly reduces the workable time of the mixture. The short workable time of the material may lead to various defects in the display.
  • halo effect may be caused by using an insufficient amount of adhesive to maintain glass component coverage during the curing phase. As the optical adhesive cures and experiences shrinking, the adhesive may pull away from the edges of the bonded glass components, resulting in both mechanical and optical failures.
  • UV cured adhesives may include one or two parts.
  • the adhesive may be applied to the glass component for bonding. After the adhesive is applied, it is cured by using a UV light source to direct UV toward the adhesive.
  • these adhesives may provide benefits over traditional mix cured adhesives, some problems still exist.
  • One such problem is the increased cost of production due to the need to maintain the UV light during the curing phase.
  • Another problem is that display features such as grid heaters, anti-reflective layers, or other devices may prevent the UV light from reaching the entire adhesive. The result may be that portions of the adhesive are not cured properly and thus weaken the bond. This weakness may result in increased mechanical separation and image distortion as a result of the uncured adhesive.
  • an encapsulated two part photo-initiated adhesive may be used to bond glass components of a display.
  • the adhesive may comprise a first part being a resin (hereinafter "part A”, “resin portions”, or “resin”) and a second part being a catalyst (hereinafter "part B”, “catalyst portions”, or “catalyst”) (collectively "components").
  • part A a resin
  • part B “catalyst portions”
  • catalyst catalyst
  • the adhesive resulting from the combination of resin and catalyst may be used to optically bond glass components of a display, the adhesive would preferably be substantially transparent and provide minimal image distortion.
  • Platinum catalysts have been found to provide a suitable optical adhesive.
  • each part may be encapsulated.
  • the term 'encapsulated' is used herein to define at least a portion of a mixture which is substantially surrounded by an envelope to prevent the portion from prematurely mixing with other portions.
  • the encapsulated parts A and B may then be mixed together creating a viscose material.
  • the mixture may then be applied to a glass component of a display for bonding. After a sufficient amount of the encapsulated mixture has been applied to the glass component, the mixture is exposed to a UV light source. Upon exposure to UV light, the capsules surrounding parts A and B release the resin and catalyst. Parts A and B then proceed to mix together creating an adhesive. After the adhesive has been formed it may then begin to cure. Another glass component may then be placed on the adhesive, such that the adhesive is interposed between two glass components. The adhesive may then be allowed to cure forming the bond between the glass components.
  • the glass components may be any component used in an electronic display or any other type of glass components which may require optical bonding.
  • the adhesive may cure simply at room temperature. In some embodiments, it may be desirable to cure the adhesive at an elevated temperature.
  • the UV light source may be required only to release the encapsulated portions and may not be required for the actual curing of the mixed adhesive. Once the adhesive is cured, the remnants of the encapsulating element may be present.
  • part A may be encapsulated and mixed with part B.
  • part B may be encapsulated and mixed with part A.
  • the adhesive formed by parts A and B may be able to penetrate the capsule shield. In this manner, capsules not exposed to the UV light may still release their contents, and the resin or catalyst contained therein may be incorporated into the adhesive.
  • the described exemplary embodiments provide several advantages over traditional optical adhesives.
  • the ability to premix the resin and the catalyst without adhesive formation increases the production time by eliminating the mixing process.
  • the ability of the adhesive to release the contents of adjacent capsules allows a more uniform bond between the glass components.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un procédé pour lier des composants en verre par utilisation d'un adhésif optique photoinitié encapsulé facultatif, et sur un procédé d'assemblage de verre utilisant ledit adhésif facultatif. Un mélange contenant un catalyseur et une résine est fourni, dans lequel soit le catalyseur, soit la résine (soit les deux) sont encapsulés. Le mélange est appliqué à un composant de verre. Le mélange peut être exposé à une lumière ultraviolette amenant les capsules à libérer les parties contenues dans celles-ci et à se combiner pour former un adhésif (ceci peut être réalisé avant ou après l'application du mélange au composant de verre). Un second composant de verre est ensuite placé sur l'adhésif de telle sorte que l'adhésif est interposé entre les composants de verre. En variante, le mélange peut être exposé à une lumière ultraviolette après que le second composé de verre a été déplacé. Un procédé à titre d'exemple utilise un cadre pour créer une épaisseur uniforme de l'adhésif. Des revêtements de protection et des rubans peuvent aussi être utilisés.
