ACRYLIC FOAM PRESSURE SENSITIVE ADHESIVE AND PRODUCTION METHOD THEREOF

摘要

An acrylic foam pressure sensitive adhesive, having a low density and having cells finely and uniformly dispersed therein, and its production method. An acrylic foam pressure sensitive adhesive having a cell average diameter of no more than 300 &mgr;m and its standard deviation of no more than 115 &mgr;m. A production method of an acrylic foam pressure sensitive adhesive comprising: introducing an acrylic foam precursor composition and a cell forming gas into an agitation and mixing apparatus equipped with a casing provided with a flow path through which a fluid flows, and agitation blades disposed within said casing capable of vibrating in the axial direction of said casing, forming cells within the acrylic foam precursor composition by agitating and mixing the acrylic foam precursor composition and the cell forming gas in the agitation and mixing apparatus, coating the acrylic foam precursor composition containing the cells onto a substrate, and curing the coated acrylic foam precursor composition.
