Abstract:
A method of overheating and releasing a chip cut piece from a thermal release type pressure sensitive adhesive sheet is a method by which a chip cut piece stuck onto a thermal release type pressure sensitive adhesive sheet having a base material, and a thermally expandable microsphere-containing thermally expandable pressure sensitive adhesive layer provided on a surface of the base material is thermally released from the thermal release type pressure sensitive adhesive sheet and which is characterized by including the step of overheating while restraining the overheat and release type pressure sensitive adhesive sheet to thereby release the chip cut piece. A means for restraining the thermal release type pressure sensitive adhesive sheet may be an absorption means using suction or may be a bonding means using an adhesive agent. In this manner, the chip cut piece can be thermally released from the overheat and release type pressure sensitive adhesive sheet while position displacement in a horizontal direction can be prevented.
Abstract:
A heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet which, even when used for temporarily fixing electronic parts having poor resistance to static electricity, such as magnetic heads, is effective in preventing the yield of such electronic parts from being reduced by electrostatic breakage, while ensuring its functions of adhesiveness before heating and peelability after heating. The heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet comprises a substrate and formed on at least one side thereof a heat-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer containing heat-expandable microspheres, wherein the heat-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer has a surface resistivity of 1012 Ω/□ or lower. In this heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet, the heat-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer before heating may have a center line average surface roughness of 2 μm or less and a maximum surface roughness of 5 μm or less. The adhesive sheet may have a rubber-like organic elastic layer interposed between the substrate and the heat-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.
Abstract:
A radiation-curable heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet is disclosed which has tackiness enabling adherends to withstand transportation and other steps, with which cutting can be conducted without flinging up an adhesive waste or causing chipping, and from which the cut pieces can be easily separated and recovered. The radiation-curable heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet comprises a substrate and, formed on at least one side thereof, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer containing heat-expandable microspheres and a radiation-curable compound. A work to be cut is placed on the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the radiation-curable heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is irradiated with a radiation to cure the adhesive layer. The work is cut into pieces and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is then thermally foamed, before the cut pieces are separated and recovered from the adhesive sheet. Thus, cut pieces can be efficiently produced without arousing troubles in processing steps.
Abstract:
A cleaning sheet including a cleaning layer which has a microasperity shape having an arithmetic average roughness Ra of 0.05 μm or less and a maximum height Rz of 1.0 μm or less. Preferably, a substantial surface area of the cleaning layer per a flat surface of 1 mm2 is 150% or more of a substantial surface area of a silicon wafer mirror surface per a flat area of 1 mm2. The cleaning sheet may be provided on at least one surface of a transfer member so that the transfer member has a cleaning function. When the cleaning sheet or the transfer member having a cleaning function is transferred in a substrate processing apparatus in place of a substrate to be processed therein, the cleaning sheet contacts and cleans a site of the substrate processing apparatus.

Abstract:
A method of thermal adherend release, wherein a part of adherends adherent to a heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet having a heat-expandable layer containing a foaming agent are selectively released from the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet by partly heating the heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet, wherein the method comprises previously heating a sticking site of an adherend to be released at a temperature at which the heat-expandable layer of the heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet does not expand and then heating the sticking site of the adherend in the heat-peelable pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet at a temperature at which the heat-expandable layer expands to thereby selectively releasing the adherend.
