  • Patent number: 10550296
    Abstract: A thermally conductive sheet in which an adhesive thermally conductive layer and a non-adhesive resin layer are stacked. The adhesive thermally conductive layer includes an acrylic resin formed by curing an acrylic compound and a thermally conductive filler, a glass transition temperature of the acrylic resin is from ?80 to 15° C., a tack property of the adhesive thermally conductive layer is higher than a tack property of the non-adhesive resin layer, the tack property of the non-adhesive resin layer is from 6 to 30 kN/m2. The non-adhesive resin layer has a glass transition temperature from 60 to 110° C. The tack property is measured by pressing probe on a layer and peeling the probe under conditions of pressing speed of 30 mm/min, peeling speed of 120 mm/min, load of 196 g, pressing time of 5.0 sec, pulling distance of 5 mm, probe heating of 40° C. and sheet stage heating of 40° C.

  • Patent number: 10340201
    Abstract: Peeling due to interfacial fracture between a tack-free layer 11 and a heat-conductive layer is prevented. In the tack-free layer, an inorganic filler having a median diameter of 0.5 ?M or more is contained in a thermoplastic resin having a glass transition temperature of 60° C. or higher to form concaves and convexes on an adhesive surface. Then, the heat-conductive layer being in contact with the adhesive surface is disposed. The adhesion between the tack-free layer and the heat-conductive layer is strengthened by an anchor effect caused by the concaves and convexes of the adhesive surface, without strengthening the adhesion of the surface opposite to the adhesive surface.

  • Patent number: 10040979
    Abstract: A thermally conductive sheet having an adhesive layer and a non-adhesive layer laminated together. The adhesive layer contains an acrylic resin formed from an acrylic compound and a thermally conductive filler, and has a tack property higher than a tack property of the non-adhesive layer. The non-adhesive layer is formed from a resin having a glass transition temperature of 10° C. or more and at least one functional group selected from a hydroxy, a carboxyl and a glycidyl, a curing agent and a flame retardant filler. The tack property of the non-adhesive layer is from 6 to 30 kN/m2 measured by pressing and then peeling an aluminum cylindrical probe from the non-adhesive layer with a pressing speed of 30 mm/min, peeling speed of 120 mm/min, load of 196 g, pressing time of 5.0 sec, pulling distance of 5 mm, probe heating of 40° C. and sheet stage heating of 40° C.
