Various types of edge seals for protecting electro-optic displays against environmental contaminants are described. In one type of seal (100), the electro-optic layer (106) is sandwiched between a backplane (102) and a protective sheet (110), and a sealing material (112) extends between the backplane (102) and the protective sheet (110). In other seals, the protective sheet is secured to the backplane or to a second protective sheet adjacent the backplane. The electro-optic layer can also be sealed between two layers of adhesive or between one layer of adhesive and the backplane. Other seals make use of flexible tapes extending around the periphery of the display. |
