PRESSURE-SENSITIVE ADHESIVE COMPOSITION FOR USE ON AN OPTICAL FILM, PRESSURE-SENSITIVE ADHESIVE LAYER, PRESSURE-SENSITIVE ADHESIVE LAYER-CARRYING OPTICAL FILM, AND IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

A pressure-sensitive adhesive composition for use on an optical film, includes a (meth)acryl-based polymer obtained by copolymerization of 30 to 98.9% by weight of an alkyl(meth)acrylate, 1 to 50% by weight of an aromatic ring-containing polymerizable monomer, 0.1 to 20% by weight of a hydroxyl group-containing monomer, and 0 to 4% by weight of a carboxyl group-containing monomer, and a solvent. The (meth)acryl-based polymer has a weight average molecular weight of 300,000 to 1,200,000 as measured by gel permeation chromatography. The content of a solid including the (meth)acryl-based polymer is 20% by weight or more, and the content of the solvent is 80% by weight or less.
