Patent ID: 12006575

Abstract:
Provided is a barrier film comprising a base layer, and an inorganic layer including Si, N, and O, and including a first region and a second region, which have different elemental contents (atomic %) of Si, N, and O from each other as measured by XPS, wherein the film has a water vapor transmission rate of 5.0×10−4 g/m2·day or less as measured under conditions of a temperature of 38° C. and 100% relative humidity after being stored at 85° C. and 85% relative humidity conditions for 250 hours, or wherein the inorganic layer has a compactness expressed through an etching rate of 0.17 nm/s in the thickness direction for an Ar ion etching condition to etch Ta2O5 at a rate of 0.09 nm/s. The barrier film has excellent barrier properties and optical properties and can be used for electronic products that are sensitive to moisture and the like.
