  • Patent number: 9394465
    Abstract: Provided is a novel transparent adhesive sheet with which the cut edge is not sticky over time when a laminated body that has been bonded via the adhesive sheet is cut, which can be adhered without generating residual air bubbles, even when the surface of an adherend is uneven, and which can be adhered without foaming, even when the adherend is a material such as plastic that can generate outgas. Suggested is an adhesive sheet that has one or more layers of a first adhesive layer and one or more layer of a second adhesive layer that exhibit different viscoelastic behaviors, and has an integrated structure whereby these layers are laminated, with a dynamic shear storage modulus G? of 2×104 to 5×105 Pa for G?(20° C.) and 1×104 to 1×105 Pa for G?(150° C.) when measured with a 1 Hz frequency temperature dispersion.
