Abstract
To produce high performance optical adhesives, adhesives were prepared by mixing triethoxy vinylsilane (TVSi) as a silane coupling agent into basic compositions consisting of 15 wt% 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), oligo-siloxanyl dimethacrylate (SiMA) and acrylicacid tricyclo [5,2,1,02,6] decane (TCDA). When the composition includes TCDA from 43 to 69 wt%, copolymers polymerized from the composition exhibit high adhesion strength to glass, good optical transparency and excellent water-resistance. The high quality of the adhesives comes from microscopically homogeneous structures of the copolymers in which all components are mixed randomly.
