The base member is capable of bonding to an opposite substrate (object) through the bonding film. Such a bonding film contains a Si-skeleton constituted of constituent atoms containing silicon atoms and elimination groups bonded to the silicon atoms of the Si-skeleton. The Si-skeleton includes siloxane (Si—O) bonds. The constituent atoms are bonded to each other. Further, the bonding film is formed by a plasma polymerization. Furthermore, in a case where energy is applied to at least a part region of the surface of the bonding film, the elimination groups existing on the surface and in the vicinity of the surface within the region are removed from the silicon atoms of the Si-skeleton so that the region develops a bonding property with respect to the opposite substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 2, 2008Publication date: December 23, 2010Applicant: SEIKO EPSON CORPORATIONInventors: Yasuhide Matsuo, Kenji Otsuka, Kazuo Higuchi, Kosuke Wakamatsu

Patent number: 7811669Abstract: There are provided a gas barrier laminated film, which is transparent while possessing excellent gas barrier properties and, at the same time, has excellent impact resistance, and a process for producing the same. The gas barrier laminated film comprises a base material, a vapor deposited film of an inorganic oxide provided on the base material, and a gas barrier coating film provided on the vapor deposited film. The gas barrier laminated film is characterized in that the base material on its side where the vapor deposited film is provided, has been subjected to pretreatment or primer coating treatment, and the gas barrier coating film has been formed by coating a gas barrier coating liquid onto the inorganic oxide film and then heating the coating.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2005Date of Patent: October 12, 2010Assignee: Dai Nippon Printing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hitoshi Fujii, Norio Akita, Ayumi Shibata, Daidou Chiba, Koichi Mikami, Hisashi Sakamoto
