Heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet and method for processing adherend using the heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet

摘要

Disclosed is a heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet that can prevent the deformation of a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer due to pressurization in a pressing process and can be easily peeled off from the processed article. The heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet includes a substrate, and a heat-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer arranged on or above at least one side of the substrate and containing a foaming agent, in which the heat-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer has a shear modulus (23° C.) in an unfoamed state of 7×106 Pa or more. The heat-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer preferably has a shear modulus (95° C.) in an unfoamed state of less than 7×106 Pa. The foaming agent in the heat-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer preferably has a foam initiating temperature higher than 80° C.
