Within a resin phase comprising a copolymer of the (meth)acrylic acid ester-based monomers and vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomers, the rubber component graft polymerized with the (meth)acrylic acid ester-based monomers and vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomers is dispersed in the form of islands. As the rubber component, for example, a conjugated diene-based rubber containing 1,3-butadiene (butadiene), 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene (isoprene), 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene, 1,3-pentadiene, 1,3-hexadiene, 2-methylpentadiene, or the like as a monomer is used, and among them, butadiene and isoprene are preferable. One or more types of such conjugated diene-based monomers can be used. (Meth)acrylic acid ester-based monomers are derivatives of acrylic acid esters and methacrylic acid esters, and include, for example, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, 2-methylhexyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, and the like. The (meth)acrylic acid ester monomers can be used alone or as a combination of two or more types thereof. Moreover, a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomer is styrene or a derivative thereof. Examples of the derivatives can include α-methylstyrene, p-methylstyrene, o-methylstyrene, p-t-butylstyrene, and the like. Preferably, the monomer is styrene.

The content of the conjugated diene rubber component within the rubber modified (meth)acrylic acid ester-vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon copolymer can be adjusted by a conventionally known method during the production stage of the rubber modified (meth)acrylic acid ester-vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon copolymer. Moreover, commercially available rubber modified (meth)acrylic acid ester-vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon copolymers containing conjugated diene rubber components within the range mentioned above can be used as-is. In the present invention, one or more types of rubber modified (meth)acrylic acid ester-vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon copolymers containing conjugated diene rubber components within the range mentioned above can be used.

(4) In one aspect of the present invention, the surface layer preferably contains only the (A) component. In addition, the surface layers on both sides of the substrate layer both preferably contain only the (A) component.

(5) Since the laminated sheet of the present invention comprises such surface layers, when it is used, for example, as a carrier tape, the variation in peel strength (difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the peel strength) with respect to not only heat seal cover tapes but also adhesive cover tapes, which serve as cover materials, can be minimized, resulting in a stable seal property.

(6) The vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymer ((B) component) contained in the substrate layer of the laminated sheet of the present invention is a polymer that contains, in the structure thereof, a block mainly composed of vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomers and a block mainly composed of conjugated diene-based monomers. Examples of the vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomers include styrene, o-methylstyrene, p-methylstyrene, p-t-butylstyrene, 1,3-dimethyl styrene, α-methylstyrene, vinylnaphthalene, vinylanthracene, 1,1-diphenylethylene, and the like, and among them, styrene is preferable. One or more types of vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomers can be used. Examples of the conjugated diene-based monomers include 1,3-butadiene (butadiene), 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene (isoprene), 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene, 1,3-pentadiene, 1,3-hexadiene, 2-methylpentadiene, and the like, and among them, butadiene and isoprene are preferable. One or more types of conjugated diene-based monomers can be used. The block mainly composed of vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomers refers to either a block composed only of a structure derived from vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomers or a block that contains 50 mass % or more of a structure derived from vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-based monomers. The block mainly composed of conjugated diene-based monomers refers to either a block composed only of a structure derived from conjugated diene-based monomers or a block that contains 50 mass % or more of a structure derived from conjugated diene-based monomers. The vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymer can be produced by a conventionally known polymerization method such as emulsion polymerization or solution polymerization.

(7) In terms of the balance between the strength, moldability, etc. of the laminated sheet of the present invention, the content of monomeric units derived from conjugated dienes in the vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymer contained in the substrate layer is 15 to 30 mass %, preferably 20 to 25 mass % with respect to the total mass of the vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymer. The content of monomeric units derived from conjugated dienes within the vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymer can be adjusted by a conventionally known method during the production stage of the vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymer. Moreover, commercially available vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymers containing monomeric units derived from conjugated dienes within the range mentioned above can be used as-is. In the present invention, one or more types of vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymers containing monomeric units derived from conjugated dienes within the range mentioned above can be used.

(8) Although the so-called general-purpose polystyrene (GPPS), which is a homopolymer of styrene, is the most common vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer for the (C) component contained in the substrate layer of the laminated sheet of the present invention, it may contain one or more aromatic vinyl monomers such as o-methyl styrene, p-methyl styrene, p-tert-butyl styrene, 1,3-dimethyl styrene, α-methylstyrene, vinylnaphthalene, vinylanthracene, and 1,1-diphenylethylene as trace components.

(9) Although the so-called high impact polystyrene (HIPS), which is obtained by polymerizing styrene monomers in the presence of a rubber components and in which the rubber component graft polymerized with the styrene monomers is dispersed in the form of islands within a resin phase comprising polystyrene, is the most common rubber modified vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer for the (C) component, it may contain one or more aromatic vinyl monomers such as o-methylstyrene, p-methylstyrene, p-tert-butyl styrene, 1,3-dimethyl styrene, α-methylstyrene, vinylnaphthalene, vinylanthracene, and 1,1-diphenylethylene as trace components. As the rubber component, for example, a conjugated diene-based rubber containing 1,3-butadiene (butadiene), 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene (isoprene), 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene, 1,3-pentadiene, 1,3-hexadiene, 2-methylpentadiene, or the like as a monomer is used, and among them, butadiene and isoprene are preferable. One or more types of such conjugated diene-based monomers can be used. The vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer and the rubber modified vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymers can be used by mixing them.

(10) In one aspect of the present invention, the (C) component contained in the substrate layer preferably contains at least a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer and preferably contains both a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer and a rubber modified vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer. When the (C) component contains both a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer and a rubber modified vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer, the content of the vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer is preferably 60 to 80 mass % with respect to the total mass of the (C) component.

(11) The substrate layer contains 30 to 70 mass %, preferably 35 to 60 mass % of the vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymer ((B) component) with respect to the total mass of the substrate layer. A content lower than this range will reduce the folding endurance of the laminated sheet of the present invention and a content higher than this range will reduce the tensile elastic modulus thereof. Moreover, the substrate layer contains 70 to 30 mass %, preferably 60 to 35 mass % of at least one polymer ((C) component) selected from the group consisting of the vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer and rubber modified vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer with respect to the total mass of the substrate layer. A content lower than this range will reduce the tensile elastic modulus of the laminated sheet of the present invention and a content higher than this range will reduce the folding endurance thereof.

(12) Furthermore, the substrate layer can contain 0 to 30 mass % of recycled material with respect to the total mass of the substrate layer. The recycled material is material obtained when producing laminated sheets with extrusion molding by pulverization and re-pelleting of parts called “ears”, which are generated by trimming the opposite ends of the sheet extruded by the die, and parts that cannot be used directly as a product, such as the beginning portion when winding the sheet. The recycled material is commonly reused by adding to the substrate layer raw material. Even if the recycled material is added in this way, it is extremely important that the laminated sheet has good properties in terms of productivity of the laminated sheet. If the recycled material contained in the substrate layer of the laminated sheet of the present invention exceeds 30 mass %, transparency decreases.

(13) In one aspect of the present invention, a material derived from the laminated sheet of the present invention can be used as the recycled material. In other words, a recycled raw material obtained by pulverizing and re-pelleting of the laminated sheet that includes the substrate layer and the surface layers of the present invention can be contained in the substrate layer of the present invention.

(14) The (A) component (rubber modified (meth)acrylic acid ester-vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon copolymer) contained in the surface layers of the laminated sheet of the present invention, the (B) component (vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon-conjugated diene block copolymers) and the (C) component (at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer and a rubber modified vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon polymer) contained in the substrate layer preferably have weight-average molecular weight (Mw) in the ranges mentioned below.

(15) (A) component: Mw=110,000-170,000

(16) (B) component: Mw=80,000-220,000

(17) (C) component: Mw=150,000-400,000

(18) By using resins with weight-average molecular weight (Mw) within the above ranges respectively, a laminated sheet having good transparency, moldability, and folding resistance can be easily obtained.

(19) Moreover, the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of each component refers to a value obtained through standard polystyrene conversion by using gel permeation chromatography (GPC).

(20) The laminated sheet preferably has a tensile elastic modulus in the sheet flow direction in a range of 1000 to 2500 MPa. The flow direction herein refers to the direction in which the laminated sheet is produced (MD direction) during creation thereof. If the tensile elastic modulus is lower than this range, the rigidity required of pockets when molded into a carrier tape is more likely to be reduced, and it is less likely to obtain a good molded article. If the tensile elastic modulus is higher than this range, the laminated sheet becomes fragile, and the folding endurance is more likely to be reduced.

(21) The folding endurance of the laminated sheet is preferably 30 times or more. If the folding endurance is less than 30 times, the laminated sheet is more likely to break.

(22) The total light transmittance of the laminated sheet is preferably in a range of 80 to 100%. If the total light transmittance is less than 80%, the transparency of the laminated sheet is more likely to deteriorate. Thus, when it is used as a carrier tape, the components stored in the pockets may become less visible. In order to obtain a laminated sheet with good transparency, the refractive index difference between the surface layer and the substrate layer is preferably 0 to 0.05.

(23) Note that the refractive index difference refers to a difference between the refractive indexes of the layers obtained by measuring with an evaluation method in accordance with JIS-K-7142.

(24) In one aspect of the present invention, haze value of the laminated sheet measured by an evaluation method in accordance with JIS-K-7105 is preferably less than 50.

(25) The method of producing the laminated sheet of the present invention is not specifically limited and the laminated sheet can be manufactured by a common method. For example, the sheet can be suitably manufactured by extrusion molding using a multi-layer T-die with a multi-manifold or by T-die extrusion molding using a feed block.

(26) Although the total thickness of the laminated sheet of the present invention and the thickness of the surface layer are not specifically limited, the total thickness is typically 100 to 700 μm, and the thickness of the surface layer is preferably in the range of 3 to 20% of the total thickness.

(27) By using a known sheet molding method (thermoforming) such as vacuum forming, pressure forming, or press forming, a free-form electronic component packaging container such as a carrier tape or a tray can be obtained from the laminated sheet of the present invention. In particular, it is extremely useful for manufacturing a transparent type carrier tape that is good in all aspects of transparency, folding endurance, and impact strength.

(28) An electronic component packaging container stores electronic component and as an electronic component package, is used to store and transport electronic components. For example, carrier tapes are used in the storage and transportation of electronic components as carrier tape bodies, in which the carrier tape, after having housed electronic components in pockets formed by the molding method mentioned above, is covered with a cover tape and then wound into a reel shape.

(29) Electronic components packaged in electronic component packages are for example, but not specifically limited to, ICs, LEDs (light emitting diodes), resistors, liquid crystals, capacitors, transistors, piezoelectric element registers, filters, crystal oscillators, crystal resonators, diodes, connectors, switches, volumes, relays, inductors, and the like. It may also be intermediate or final products that use these electronic components.

(4) Moldability Evaluation
At a heater temperature condition of 210° C., a pressure forming machine was used to mold a 24 mm-wide carrier tape. The pocket size of the carrier tape was 15 mm in the flow direction, 11 mm in the width direction, and 5 mm in the depth direction. The bottom and sides of the pocket of this carrier tape were each cut out and a moldability evaluation was performed by measuring the thickness, using a profile measurement laser microscope manufactured by KEYENCE CORPORATION. When the difference in the sheet thickness between the bottom and the sides of the pocket was +/−10% or more and 20% or less, it was noted as “acceptable”, when it was less than +/−10%, it was noted as “good”, and when it was more than +/−20%, it was noted as “poor.”
(5) Peel Strength Evaluation
Using PT-2012 manufactured by BOLIAN, a 13 mm-wide adhesive cover tape (adhesive cover tape manufactured by RUITAI) was sealed against a 24 mm-wide sheet sample with a sealing pressure of 0.4 MPa.

For each test body, a VG-35 peel tester manufactured by Vanguard Systems INC. was used to peel 100 mm of the cover tape at a peeling angle of 180° and a peeling speed of 600 mm per minute to determine the difference between the maximum and minimum values of the peel strength.
(6) Layer Thickness Accuracy
When the difference between the target thickness and the actually measured thickness of the surface layers and the substrate layer of the sheet at the time of film forming of the sheet was +/−10% or more and 20% or less, it was noted as “acceptable”, when it was less than +/−10%, it was noted as “good”, and when it was more than +/−20%, it was noted as “poor.” The thickness was measured at the opposite ends and the center of the cross-section in a direction (TD direction) that is orthogonal to the sheet flow direction.

(51) As shown in Table 2, the laminated sheets of the examples had sufficient transparency and strength, and good thickness accuracy in the surface layers and the substrate layers resulted in good moldability. Thus, due to the good sealing property not only with a heat seal cover tape but also with an adhesive cover tape, it was confirmed that the laminated sheets are suitable for use as carrier tapes.
