Abstract
Abstract An optical information recording medium of two disc substrates, which are adhered directly or through a convex portion formed on at least one of the substrates or a spacer provided between the substrates by an adhesive layer, and a recording layer which is capable of recording and/or reading information by laser beam and which is provided on a surface of at least one of the substrates facing the other substrate, wherein the adhesive layer is formed by an ultraviolet-curing epoxy adhesive composition comprising a light-initiator which produces a cationic polymerization initiator upon irradiation with ultraviolet rays and an epoxy compound having two or more epoxy groups per molecule.
