  • Publication number: 20140037940
    Abstract: A cover film including, at least, (A) a substrate layer, (B) an intermediate layer, (C) a release layer and (D) a heat seal layer is provided. The release layer (C) includes a resin composition which includes (a) a styrene-based resin composition and (b) an ethylene-?-olefin random copolymer, with the content of the copolymer (b) in the release layer being 20 to 50 mass %, and which has a Vicat softening temperature of 55 to 80° C., while the heat seal layer (D) includes an acrylic resin having a glass transition temperature of 55 to 80° C. By the cover film, a carrier tape of polystyrene or the like can be so heat-sealed even in a short time as to achieve sufficient peel strength. Further, the resulting heat-sealed carrier tape exhibits little variation in peel strength, so that when peeling, few components fly out of the carrier tape.

  • Publication number: 20130199961
    Abstract: Disclosed is a cover film which is used in combination with a carrier tape and comprises at least a base layer, an intermediate layer, a releasing layer and a heat seal layer that is capable of being heat sealed to the carrier tape. The intermediate layer contains, as a main component, a linear low density polyethylene that is polymerized using a metallocene catalyst and has a tensile modulus of 200 MPa or less. The releasing layer contains a conductive material and also contains, as a main component, a hydrogenated resin of an aromatic vinyl-conjugated diene copolymer having an aromatic vinyl group content of 15-35% by mass. This cover film is small in variation in peel strength when the cover film is released, and is thus capable of suppressing troubles during the releasing in a mounting process.

  • Patent number: 7097900
    Abstract: In order to prevent static electricity impairment of an electronic component, a layer at the surface of a container to be in contact with an electronic component is one having a relatively high surface resistivity, a layer having a higher electrical conductivity than that is laminated below it, and the surface resistivity of the layer at the surface is higher than that of the layer below it. It is considered that in an electronic component packaging container having such a constitution, static electricity electrified on an electronic component is gradually discharged from the electronic component to the surface of the electronic component packaging container without sudden discharge, thus preventing the static electricity impairment. The surface layer preferably comprises a material close to the electronic component in the series of frictional electrification.

  • Publication number: 20030183553
    Abstract: In order to prevent impairment due to static electricity in a container for an electronic component, generation of static electricity itself has to be inhibited. The peeling static electrification amount of a cover tape should be from −9 to +9 nC when the cover tape has a surface resistivity of at least 1011 &OHgr;, or it should be from −3 to +3 nC when the cover tape has a surface resistivity of less than 1011 &OHgr;. In a carrier tape body, a side of a cover tape which faces an electronic component should have a composition containing a resin on the positive polarity side and a resin on the negative polarity side relative to a side of the electronic component which faces the cover tape in the series of frictional electrification. For the surface of a container to be in contact with an electronic component, a material which is less likely to generate static electricity should be employed.
