  • Patent number: 10173403
    Abstract: Provided is an a aramid-resin film laminate comprising an aramid paper comprising an aramid fibrid and an aramid short fiber, and a resin film laminated on each other. The aramid-resin film laminate is obtained by conducting a plasma treatment on a surface of the aramid paper, the surface having a skin layer portion whose heat of fusion measured with a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) is 25 cal/g or less, and bonding the aramid paper and the resin film to each other by heating, pressing, or heating under pressure, with the plasma treated surface of the aramid paper and a plasma treated surface of the resin film facing each other. This laminate is an aramid-resin film laminate in which the aramid paper and the resin film are laminated on each other without using any adhesive agent and without impairing characteristics of both the aramid paper and the resin film, and is excellent in heat resistance, electrical characteristics, chemical resistance, mechanical characteristics, and the like.

  • Patent number: 10109809
    Abstract: A flexible substrate includes a polymer substrate and a plurality of water and oxygen barrier layers provided on the polymer substrate. A planarization layer is provided between the adjacent water and oxygen barrier layers. The planarization layer includes a plurality of planarization units separated in a first direction and a second direction. A projection of the planarization unit in the planarization layer projected on the polymer substrate covers a gap between projections of adjacent planarization units in an adjacent planarization layer projected on the polymer substrate, and projection regions partially overlap. The adjacent planarization layers can cover the gap between the planarization units to prevent the water and oxygen horizontal from penetrating to ensure that the flexible substrate can be cut into any size within the range lager than the size of the planarization unit.
