Benefits of technology

[0045]The transparent coating film obtained by applying the compositions for forming a transparent coating film containing hollow silica microparticles and a binder according to the present invention has a low refractive index in the range from 1.25 to 1.45, and discoloring such as whitening hardly occurs in the compositions, and the compositions are excellent in the abrasion resistance and the adhesiveness. Furthermore the transparent coating film is also excellent in the chemical resistance and the water resistance, and for instance, when water droplets dropped on a surface of the transparent coating film according to the present invention are wiped off, advantageously no trace of the droplets is left.
[0046]With the production method according to the present invention, the hollow silica microparticles can efficiently be produced.
[0047]Of the substrates each with a transparent coating film according to the present invention, especially those having a transparent coating film in which a specific quantity of hollow silica microparticles are unevenly distributed in the layer state show the excellent characteristics based on the hollow silica microparticles (such as the capability of suppressing reflection and the antistatic property). Furthermore, in the transparent film-coated substrate according to the present invention, when prespecified hollow silica microparticles and prespecified metal oxide microparticles are unevenly distributed in the layered state respectively, in addition to the characteristics provided by the hollow silica microparticles, also the characteristics based on the metal oxide microparticles are easily and strongly shown. Especially, with the compositions for forming a transparent coating film according to the present invention in which prespecified hollow silica microparticles and prespecified metal oxide microparticles are contained, it is possible to obtain a transparent coating film in which hollow silica microparticles and metal oxide microparticles are unevenly distributed in the layered state respectively or a substrate having the transparent coating film.

Problems solved by technology

In the films containing the silica particles or the transparent coating films as described above, there often occurs the problem that the obtained films or the transparent coating films are whitened.

[Preparation of the Hollow Silica Microparticles According to the Present Invention]

[0139]200 g of the hollow silica sol A (with the solid silica concentration of 20 W %) was prepared and subjected to solvent substitution to methanol with a ultrafilter membrane to prepare 100 g of an organosol with the SiO2 concentration of 20 W % (and with the water content of 0.5 W % against the amount of SiO2).

[0140]Then a 28% ammonia aqueous solution was added to 100 g of the organosol so that the ammonia concentration would be 100 ppm, and the mixture solution was sufficiently mixed. Then 4 g of methacrylsilane (produced by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.: KBM503) (by about 20 weight portions against 100 weight portions of SiO2) was added to the mixture solution to obtain a reactant liquid (with the water content of 0.6 W % against the amount of SiO2). The reactant liquid was heated to 50° C. and preserved at the temperature for 15 hours with agitation. After the heating process was completed, the...

Then 4 g of methacrylsilane (produced by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.: KBM503) (by about 20 weight portions against 100 weight portions of SiO2) was added to the mixture solution to obtain a reactant liquid (with the water content of 1.0 W % against the amount of SiO2). The reactant liquid was heated to 50° C. and preserved at the temperature for 15 hours with agitation. After the heating process was completed, the reactant liquid was cooled down to the room temperature and cleaned with a ultrafil...

Then 1 g of acrylsilane (produced by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.: KBM5103) (by about 5 weight portions against 100 weight portions of SiO2) was added to the mixture solution to obtain a reactant liquid (with the water content of 0.75 W % against the amount of SiO2). The reactant liquid was heated to 50° C. and preserved at the temperature for 15 hours with agitation. After the heating process was completed, the reactant liquid was cooled down to the room temperature and cleaned with a ultrafilter...

Abstract

Hollow silica microparticles suppress whitening of a transparent coating film and show excellent abrasion resistance and adhesiveness. The microparticles having the average particle diameter of 5 to 300 nm and the specific surface area of 50 to 1500 m2/g, and also having an outer shell in which cavities are formed. The microparticles lose the weight by 1.0 W % or more at a temperature range from 200° C. to 500° C. when measured by the thermogravimetry (TG), and the microparticles have a positive DTA peak at the temperature range when measured by the differential thermogravimetric analysis (DTA).
