Method for separating an optical film bonded to an adherend with a pressure-sensitive adhesive optical film

摘要

There is provided a method for separating an optical film bonded to an adherend with a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer interposed therebetween from the adherend. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed using an optical pressure-sensitive adhesive. The optical pressure-sensitive adhesive of the invention comprises a base polymer having a functional group (F); and a coupling agent that has a benzyl ester group and is represented by Formula (1): wherein A1 and A2 are different functional groups, one of A1 and A2 shows reactivity or interaction with the functional group (F) of the base polymer, R1 is an optionally substituted alkylene group of 1 to 12 carbon atoms and/or an optionally substituted phenylene group, and R2 and R3 are each a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group of 1 to 12 carbon atoms and may be the same or different.
