Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present invention relates to a conductive silicone composition and a cured product thereof. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     Recently, a conductive adhesive agent has been increasingly used related to an electronic component such as a multifunctional mobile-phone unit, a personal computer, and a solar cell. Among them, a conductive silicone composition is excellent from the viewpoint of high reliability and high expansibility, and thus, has been widely used. 
     SUMMARY OF INVENTION 
     In JP 2006-335926 A (corresponding to US 2006/0,276,584 A), a conductive silicone composition containing an organopolysiloxane having an average of two or more alkenyl groups in one molecule, an adhesiveness improver, a curing agent, and metal-covered conductive particles is disclosed. However, according to paragraph 0059 of JP 2006-335926 A (corresponding to US 2006/0,276,584 A), it is disclosed that a cured product having high reliability is not obtained without being heated at 180° C. The temperature of 180° C. is an extremely high temperature condition, and thus, there is a problem that it is difficult to apply the conductive silicone composition to an application such as a liquid crystal image display element, an organic EL element, a solar cell element, and the periphery thereof, which are easily degraded by heat. 
     The present invention has been made in consideration of the circumstances described above, and an object thereof is to provide a conductive silicone composition that is cured at a low temperature in a short time and from which a cured product having excellent conductivity is obtained.

     From Examples 1 to 3 of Table 2, it is found that the present invention is a conductive silicone composition that is cured at a low temperature in a short time and from which a cured product having excellent conductivity is obtained. 
     On the other hand, Comparative Example 1 of Table 2 is a conductive silicone composition not containing the (D) component of the present invention, and it is found that a high resistance value is exhibited, and conduction properties are degraded compared to Examples. In addition, Comparative Examples 2 and 3 are out of the blending range of the (D) component, which is the characteristics of the present invention, and it is found that in the test of the conduction properties 1, the conduction properties are degraded compared to Examples. 
     In addition, in a case where Examples 1 and 3 of Table 2 (the addition amount of the (E) component is 66 mass % with respect to the entire conductive silicone composition) is compared to Comparative Example 3 (the addition amount of the (E) component is 68 mass % with respect to the entire conductive silicone composition), it is found that in Examples 1 and 3, more excellent conduction properties are attained in the test of the conduction properties 1. As described above, an effect that Examples 1 and 3 in which the content rate of the conductive powder is low have more excellent conduction properties than those of Comparative Example 3 in which the content rate of the conductive powder is high is not capable of being expected by a person skilled in the art. 
     Further, in the conductive silicone composition of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3, (3) Conduction Properties after 100%-Stretching Cycle Test and (4) Adhesion described below were evaluated. 
     &lt;(3) Evaluation of Conduction Properties after 100%-Stretching Cycle Test&gt; 
     The conductive silicone composition obtained in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 was applied onto a glass plate covered with a polytetrafluoroethylene sheet to have a width of 10 mm, a length of 50 mm, and a thickness of 200 μm, and the plate was put in a constant-temperature bath of 80° C. for 120 minutes, and thus, a test piece was prepared. 
     Next, the test piece was fixed to chucks, and by using an endurance tester (DLDM111LHB, manufactured by YUASA SYSTEM CO., LTD.), 100% (twice the initial length) stretching was performed 500 cycles at a period of 50 cycles per 1 minute. After 500 cycles, a case where the resistance was capable of being measured with a digital ohmmeter was evaluated as acceptable, and a case where the resistance is not capable of being measured (an insulated state) was evaluated as unacceptable. 
     &lt;(4) Evaluation of Adhesion (Creep Test)&gt; 
     Measurement was performed on the basis of JIS K6883-1 (2008). That is, the conductive silicone composition of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 was applied onto a gold-plated adherend to have an area of 5 mm x 50 mm and a thickness of 200 μm, and the adherend was put in a constant-temperature bath of 80° C. for 1 hour, and was cured, and thus, a cured product was obtained. 
     After that, a creep test was implemented by suspending a weight of 10 g from the cured product with a clip in an environment of 23° C. and 50%RH, and evaluation was performed by a falling time. Results are shown in Table 3. As the criterion of the falling time, in a case where it is visually observed that an adhesive agent (the cured product) is peeled off from the gold-plated adherend by greater than or equal to 10 mm in a length direction, it is considered that the weight falls. Note that, measurement was implemented every 30 minutes until 24 hours. In the present invention, it is indicated that adhesion is excellent as the falling time becomes longer.
