Abstract
A method for producing a product, the method including: a placing step of placing an adhesive composition, including a thermosetting resin and a foaming agent, between a first member and a second member; and an adhering step of adhering the first member and the second member by foaming and curing the adhesive composition by heating, wherein the foaming agent is a thermally expandable microcapsule; the adhesive composition has predetermined properties; and the adhesive composition is heated under predetermined heating conditions in the adhering step.
Claims5
A method for producing a product, the method comprising:
- a placing step of placing an adhesive composition, including a thermosetting resin and a foaming agent, between a first member and a second member;
- and
- an adhering step of adhering the first member and the second member by foaming and curing the adhesive composition by heating,
- wherein the foaming agent is a thermally expandable microcapsule;
- A<B when following conditions are satisfied,
- in a foaming ratio-time curve where time is on a horizontal axis and a foaming ratio of the foaming agent is on a vertical axis, when a differential scanning calorimetry is carried out to the foaming agent, using a differential scanning calorimeter including a camera, under heating conditions in the adhering step, a slope of a tangent line to the curve at a top of a peak, on a longer time side of the peak, is regarded as A, and
- in a DSC curve where time is on a horizontal axis and a heat flow is on a vertical axis, when a differential scanning calorimetry is carried out to the adhesive composition under the heating conditions in the adhering step, a slope of a tangent line to the curve at a top of an exothermic peak, on a longer time side of the exothermic peak, is regarded as B;
- and
- the adhesive composition is heated so that T1<T2 when following conditions are satisfied in the adhering step,
- in a foaming ratio-time curve where time is on a horizontal axis and a foaming ratio of the foaming agent is on a vertical axis, when a differential scanning calorimetry is carried out to the foaming agent, using a differential scanning calorimeter including a camera, time corresponding to a top of a peak is regarded as T1, and
- in a DSC curve where time is on a horizontal axis and a heat flow is on a vertical axis, when a differential scanning calorimetry is carried out to a composition where the foaming agent is excluded from the adhesive composition, time corresponding to a top of an exothermic peak is regarded as T2.
An adhesive composition comprising a thermosetting resin and a foaming agent,
- wherein the foaming agent is a thermally expandable microcapsule;
- C<D when following conditions are satisfied,
- in a foaming ratio-time curve where time is on a horizontal axis and a foaming ratio of the foaming agent is on a vertical axis, when a differential scanning calorimetry is carried out to the foaming agent, using a differential scanning calorimeter including a camera, under heating conditions of rising temperature from room temperature to a maximum foaming temperature of the foaming agent in 5 minutes, and holding at the maximum foaming temperature of the foaming agent, a slope of a tangent line to the curve at a top of a peak, on a longer time side of the peak, is regarded as C, and
- in a DSC curve where time is on a horizontal axis and a heat flow is on a vertical axis, when a differential scanning calorimetry is carried out to the adhesive composition under the heating conditions described above, a slope of a tangent line to the curve at a top of an exothermic peak, on a longer time side of the exothermic peak, is regarded as D;
- and
- the adhesive composition is used by heating thereof so that T1<T2 when following conditions are satisfied,
- in a foaming ratio-time curve where time is on a horizontal axis and a foaming ratio of the foaming agent is on a vertical axis, when a differential scanning calorimetry is carried out to the foaming agent, using a differential scanning calorimeter including a camera, time corresponding to a top of a peak is regarded as T1, and
- in a DSC curve where time is on a horizontal axis and a heat flow is on a vertical axis, when a differential scanning calorimetry is carried out to a composition where the foaming agent is excluded from the adhesive composition, time corresponding to a top of an exothermic peak is regarded as T2.
