The adhesive film generally has good wettability to the surface of an adherend and in general can be easily attached without creating air bubbles, to the extent that, even if air bubbles are created, the air bubbles can be easily dissipated. Further, even though the adhesive film is generally not easily peeled, peeling is generally possible with a small adhesive force during high speed peeling.
