Description

UV-CURABLE EPOXY RESIN COMPOSITION COMPRISING LACTONE MONOMER
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a UV-curable epoxy resin composition comprising a photopolymerizable epoxy oligomer, a photopolymerizable epoxy monomer, a photoimtiator and a lactone monomer, which is useful as an optical adhesive having improved moisture and heat resistance and adhesive properties.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Required of adhesives used in assembling optoelectronic devices are high reliability, accuracy, and high productivity. A photocurable adhesive is preferred over a thermosetting adhesive in such application because it can be set quickly at a low temperature using simple equipment and facilities, and, therefore, many UV-curable adhesives have been used in optoelectronic industries.
Conventionally, photocurable adhesives for assembling optical devices comprise an acrylate, epoxy, vinyl, or other resin as a main component, together with an epoxy oligomer, an epoxy monomer, a filler and additives. Most of optical adhesives made of photocurable epoxides deteriorate under a humid condition, e.g., when the temperature is cycled between -40°C and 75°C or -40°C and 85 °C under a relative humidity of 90%, due to moisture penetration at the adhesion interface, with consequential peeling and delamination. In order to solve such problems, there has been suggested a process of adding a ring-opened caprolactone polyol having a molecular weight of 200 to 3000 to a mixture of an epoxy oligomer, an epoxy monomer, a cationic initiator and other additives. However, adhesives manufactured by said process still exhibit unsatisfactory performance properties in a high temperature and humid environment (see J. Adhesion, 1991, Vol. 35, p.251-267; J. Adhesion Sci. Techol., No. 10, p.1343-1355 (1995); and Electrical Technology, March 1997, p.139-146).
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a UV-curable epoxy resin composition having improved performance characteristics including high moisture and heat resistance, adhesive strength and reduced shrinkage. In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a
UV-curable epoxy resin composition comprising an epoxy oligomer, an epoxy monomer, a cationic initiator and a lactone monomer.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, there is provided an optical article manufactured using said UV-curable epoxy resin composition.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The UV-curable epoxy resin composition of the present invention characteristically contains a lactone monomer, which is polymerized during UV curing by the action of a cationic initiator, as illustrated below:

Performance Test
The performances of the UV-curable epoxy resin compositions prepared in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were evaluated as follows.
(1) Shear adhesive strength
Each of the epoxy resin compositions was used to bind the longitudinal terminals of two quartz plates having a size of 35nτmx25mmx5mm by overlapping 3mm x 20mm, and cured using a mercury vacuum lamp(more than lOmW) for 5 to 10 minutes at room temperature, and post-cured under the condition of 60 to 85 °C for 4 to 10 hours. The specimen was tested using a conventional tension tester at 1 to lOmm/min in accordance with ASTM D-1144 to evaluate the shear adhesive strength. The results are shown in Table 1.
Table 1
Figure imgf000009_0001
Figure imgf000010_0001
As shown in Table 1, each of the UV-curable epoxy resin compositions comprising a lactone monomer according to the present invention has a shear adhesive strength comparable or superior to that of a conventional composition containing a ring-opened ε-caprolactone polyol.
(2) Shrinkage
Shrinkage during curing was calculated from the specific gravity of above examples, which were measured before and after curing according to ASTM D-792. UV and post-curing condition for preparing specimens is the same as the shear adhesive strength test. The results are shown in Table 2.
Table 2

Table 2 shows that each of the UV-curable epoxy resin compositions comprising a lactone monomer according to the present invention exhibits markedly smaller shrinkage than that of a conventional composition containing a ring-opened ε-caprolactone polyol.
(3) Moisture and heat resistance The moisture and heat resistance was determined using the same specimen as used in the shear adhesive strength. After the specimen was subjected to a pressure cooker test(PCT) under the condition of 121 °C, 2atm, and 100% relative humidity, shear adhesive strength was evaluated with a UTM(Instron) at 25 °C and a shear speed of 5mm/min. The results are shown in Table 3.

The results in Table 3 demonstrate that the moisture and heat resistance of the inventive UV-curable epoxy resin composition is greatly enhanced owing to the presence of a lactone monomer.
