Abstract: The present invention discloses a display panel substrate assembly and an apparatus and method for forming a display panel substrate assembly, wherein the substrate assembly includes a first substrate and a second substrate. At least one of the first substrate and the second substrate is optically clear. The method includes the steps of screen printing a non-sag adhesive composition onto a surface of the first substrate, bringing the non-sag adhesive composition into contact with a surface of the second substrate in an environment having a pressure of less than or equal to about 5000 pascals, and curing the non-sag adhesive composition to yield an adhesive layer. The non-sag adhesive composition is of a type which is optically clear after curing.

Abstract: There is a method for forming a laminated product having a first substrate and a second substrate. The method may comprise applying a liquid adhesive on a surface of the first substrate for bonding the first substrate to the second substrate. The liquid adhesive located on a circumferential periphery of the first substrate for limiting movement of the liquid adhesive within the circumferential adhesive wall structure. Pressure may be applied on a bond area between the first substrate and the second substrate in a vacuum environment to incrementally increase the bond area between the first substrate and the second substrate to incrementally bond the first substrate to the second substrate. The liquid adhesive may be cured to bond the first and second substrates.
