Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to organic fine particles, and more particularly to non-fluorinated organic fine particles. Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, by performing chemical treatment such as coating with a fluororesin or a silicone resin, water repellency is imparted to the surface of a substrate such as metal, glass, paper, cloth, or plastic. For example, by coating with a fluororesin, a water-repellent substrate surface having a water contact angle of about 120° can be obtained.

[0003] In addition, by a method of forming a fine concavo-convex structure on the substrate surface or a method of combining the formation of such a fine concavo-convex structure on the substrate surface with the above coating treatment, super water repellency with a water contact angle of 150° or more is imparted to the substrate surface. In the production of the concavo-convex structure, a method using fine particles or a method of patterning such as etching can be mainly cited. The range and substrates that can be used for patterning methods such as etching are limited.

[0004] When hydrophobic inorganic fine particles are used as fine particles, a large amount of a dispersant such as an emulsifier is required to obtain an aqueous dispersion of the hydrophobic inorganic fine particles. If hydrophobic inorganic fine particles with a reduced hydrophobicity, that is, hydrophobic inorganic fine particles having hydrophilic groups remaining, are used, although the dispersion in water becomes slightly easier, the hydrophobicity of the fine particles themselves is reduced, and thus the performance as a water repellent is reduced.

[0005] On the other hand, there are also soap-free polymerization or organic fine particle synthesis methods with a small amount of emulsifier. In these methods, since there is no emulsifier or a small amount of emulsifier is dispersed in water, hydrophilic monomers are generally almost always used, and the fine particles also exhibit hydrophilicity. Since it is difficult to use monomers with high hydrophobicity, it is difficult to synthesize organic fine particles exhibiting water repellency using soap-free polymerization or organic fine particle synthesis methods with a small amount of emulsifier.

[0006] Past literature (especially patent gazettes) has disclosed imparting water repellency to organic fine particles, but the examples are limited to inorganic fine particles.

[0007] Patent Document 1 discloses a method for manufacturing a water-repellent coating film, which is characterized by including a first step of forming an abrasion-resistant base film using fine particles (A) having an average particle diameter of 15 to 500 μm, a resin composition (B), and a solvent (C); and a second step of forming a super water-repellent finishing film using fine particles (a) having an average particle diameter of 5 to 500 nm and being hydrophobic, a resin composition (b), and a solvent (c). In the examples of Patent Document 1, the fine particles (a) used to form the super water-repellent finishing film are silica, which are inorganic fine particles.

[0008] Patent Document 2 discloses a non-fluorinated polymer containing a structural unit derived from a (meth)acrylate monomer and a structural unit derived from a silicone oil having a (meth)acryloyl group.

[0009] In the past, there has been a problem of dark coloration. Generally, in fiber products, synthetic fibers, especially polyester fibers, are widely used in various applications. However, compared with natural fibers such as wool or silk, they are inferior in terms of characteristics such as the shade, depth, and vividness of the color in dyed products. Therefore, there is a tendency for the commercial value of products on the market to be evaluated lower.

[0010] As a countermeasure against such problems, various proposals have been made to improve the characteristics such as the shade, depth, and vividness of the color of dyed products obtained from synthetic fibers such as polyester fibers. For example, a darkening agent has been proposed, which is composed of an aqueous dispersion of a polymer obtained by polymerizing an ethylenically unsaturated monomer in the presence of a cationic surfactant, and contains a polymer having a refractive index of 1.50 or less and a glass transition temperature exceeding 110 °C and a polymer having a refractive index of 1.50 or less and a glass transition temperature below 20 °C (for example, refer to Patent Document 3). It is said that this darkening agent can impart a good darkening effect to fiber products. However, in fibers that require water repellency, the darkening agent tends to reduce the water repellency.

[0145] Effects of the Invention

[0146] The organic fine particles and water-repellent composition of the present invention can impart excellent water repellency (especially high strong water repellency) to substrates such as fiber products. In the case of fiber products treated with the water-repellent composition of the present invention, the slipperiness of water droplets is excellent. In addition, especially the sliding speed is high, so it is suitable for uses requiring high water repellency.

[0147] In the organic fine particles, by making the main chain softer than the inorganic fine particles, the particles themselves can have motility by heating. Therefore, when in water, by positioning the hydrophilic group on the outermost surface, they can be stably dispersed, and after being coated on the substrate and dried, the hydrophobic part with a small surface free energy can be positioned on the outermost surface. Even for the fine particles imparted with hydrophilicity, by the segregation of the hydrophobic part on the surface after coating, they can become fine particles showing high water repellency.

[0148] The colorant has a tendency to reduce the water repellency, but the organic fine particles of the present invention can exhibit a color intensifying effect without impairing the water repellency. Description of the Drawings

[0155] Organic fine particles (A) + aqueous medium (B),

[0156] Organic fine particles (A) + aqueous medium (B) + binder resin (C),

[0157] Organic fine particles (A) + aqueous medium (B) + surfactant (D),

[0160] Organic fine particles (A) + aqueous medium (B) + binder resin (C) + surfactant (D) + crosslinking agent (E)

[0161] (A) Organic fine particles

[0162] The organic fine particles act as an effective component for imparting water repellency. The organic fine particles are preferably formed of a non-fluorine polymer.

[0163] From the viewpoints of water repellency and the stability of the aqueous dispersion, the average particle diameter of the organic fine particles can be 30 to 1000 nm, preferably 50 to 700 nm or 200 to 600 nm. The average particle diameter refers to the average particle diameter of the particles measured by the dynamic light scattering method (DLS).

[0164] The organic fine particles maintain their particle shape on the substrate and exhibit water repellency.

[0165] The exhibited water repellency means that:

[0166] (i) When attached to a glass substrate, the contact angle of water is 100 degrees or more;

[0167] (ii) When attached to cloth, the contact angle of water is 120 degrees or more; or

[0168] (iii) The sliding speed when attached to cloth is 100 mm / s or more.

[0169] On a glass substrate coated with a composition containing organic fine particles, the contact angle of water (i.e., the contact angle of water on the glass substrate coated with organic fine particles or the contact angle of water on the glass substrate coated with organic fine particles and an adhesive (and other components)) is 100 degrees or more, for example, it can be 110 degrees or more, and particularly can be 118 degrees or more and 180 degrees or less. Specifically, the contact angle of water on the glass substrate coated with the composition containing organic fine particles can be measured by the following operation: that is, the composition containing organic fine particles is drop-cast on a glass substrate (slide glass: made of soda-lime glass), heated at 150 °C for 3 minutes to prepare a substrate coated with organic fine particles, 2 μL of water is dropped on the glass substrate coated with organic fine particles, and the static contact angle 1 second after dropping is measured using a fully automatic contact angle meter (Drop Master 701 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science).

The glass transition temperature of the homopolymer is, for example, 120 °C or higher, particularly may be 150 °C or higher, and may be 250 °C or lower.

[0295] The glass transition temperature (glass transition temperature) of the homopolymer is calculated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). By heating 10 mg of the sample at 10 °C / min, a DSC curve is obtained, and it can be determined as the temperature represented by the midpoint of the intersection of the extension lines of the respective baselines before and after the secondary transition of the DSC curve and the tangent line at the inflection point of the DSC curve.

[0344] In the polymer, the molar ratio of the hydrophobic monomer (1) or (meth)acrylic acid monomer (2) / reactive-hydrophilic monomer (3) / high glass transition temperature monomer (5) can be 20 to 100 / 0 to 50 / 0 to 70. Alternatively, the molar ratio of the hydrophobic monomer (1) or (meth)acrylic acid monomer (2) / reactive-hydrophilic monomer (3) / high glass transition temperature monomer (5) can be 20 to 99.9 / 0.1 to 50 / 0 to 70, preferably 20 to 99.5 / 0.5 to 50 / 0 to 68. The molar ratio of the hydrophobic monomer (1) or (meth)acrylic acid monomer (2) / reactive-hydrophilic monomer (3) can be 50 to 99 / 1 to 50, preferably 55 to 98 / 2 to 45. The molar ratio of the hydrophobic monomer (1) or (meth)acrylic acid monomer (2) / high glass transition temperature monomer (5) can be 50 to 99 / 1 to 50, preferably 55 to 98 / 2 to 45. The crosslinkable monomer (4) can be 0.1 to 30 mol parts, for example 0.1 to 25 mol parts, based on the total 100 mol parts of the hydrophobic monomer (1), (meth)acrylic acid monomer (2), high glass transition temperature monomer (5) and reactive-hydrophilic monomer (3).

[0345] Alternatively, the molar ratio of one or both of the hydrophobic monomer (1) or (meth)acrylic acid monomer (2) / reactive-hydrophilic monomer (3) / high glass transition temperature monomer (5) can be 50 to 95 / 0 to 30 / 0 to 30, 60 to 95 / 0 to 30 or 1 to 20 / 0 to 30 or 1 to 20, 80 to 95 / 0 to 15 or 1 to 10 / 0 to 15 or 1 to 10, 85 to 95 / 0 to 15 or 1 to 10 / 0 to 15 or 1 to 10.

[0346] The amount of the other monomer (6) can be 0 to 10% by weight, for example 0.1 to 5% by weight, based on the polymer.

[0347] The water-repellent polymer can be a random polymer or a block copolymer, preferably a random polymer.

[0348] (B) Aqueous medium

[0349] The water-repellent composition contains an aqueous medium. The aqueous medium is water or a mixture of water and an organic solvent.

[0350] The water-repellent composition is usually an aqueous dispersion in which a polymer is dispersed in an aqueous medium (water or a mixture of water and an organic solvent).

[0351] The aqueous medium can be water alone or a mixture of water and a (water-miscible) organic solvent. The amount of the organic solvent can be 30% by weight or less, for example 10% by weight or less, relative to the liquid medium. The aqueous medium is preferably water alone.

[0352] When the water-repellent polymer and the aqueous medium are set to a total of 100 parts by weight, the amount of the aqueous medium can be 50 to 99.5 parts by weight, particularly 70 to 99.5 parts by weight.

[0353] (C) Binder resin

[0354] The binder resin functions as a binder that binds the organic fine particles to the substrate. A water-repellent resin is preferably used as the binder resin. The water-repellent resin also functions as an active ingredient that exhibits water repellency. Examples of the binder resin are acrylic polymers, polyurethane polymers, polyolefins, polyesters, polyethers, polyamides, polyimides, polystyrenes, and silicone polymers.

[0355] The water-repellent resin is a non-fluorinated polymer having a hydrocarbon group with 3 to 40 carbon atoms in the side chain or a fluorinated polymer having a fluoroalkyl group with 1 to 20 carbon atoms in the side chain. The water-repellent resin is preferably a non-fluorinated polymer.

[0356] In the non-fluorinated polymer having a hydrocarbon group with 3 to 40 carbon atoms, the hydrocarbon group is preferably a branched hydrocarbon group or a long-chain (or long-chain linear) hydrocarbon group. The —CH 3 group has a lower surface free energy than —CH 2 — and exhibits water repellency. Therefore, a branched hydrocarbon group (e.g., a branched alkyl group), particularly a structure having more branched —CH 3 groups, such as a structure of tert-butyl, isopropyl, 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl, etc., is preferred. In the branched hydrocarbon group, the number of —CH 3 groups is preferably 2 to 15, for example 3 to 10 or 4 to 8. The number of carbon atoms of the long-chain hydrocarbon group (or long-chain linear hydrocarbon group) can be 7 to 40 or 12 to 30, for example 16 to 26, particularly 18 to 22.

[0357] Examples of the water-repellent resin are polyurethane polymers, silicone polymers, acrylic polymers, and polystyrenes.

[0358] Examples of non-fluoropolymers include amidoamine dendrimers having long-chain hydrocarbon groups, as described in US Patent No. 8,703,894. The disclosure of this document is incorporated herein by reference.

[0359] Polyurethane polymers having a hydrocarbon group with 3 to 40 carbon atoms in the side chain can be produced, for example, by reacting an isocyanate group-containing compound (e.g., a monoisocyanate or polyisocyanate, specifically a diisocyanate or triisocyanate) with a hydroxyl group-containing compound having a hydrocarbon group with 3 to 40 carbon atoms.

[0360] Polyurethanes having a branched structure such as a tert-butyl group, isopropyl group, 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl group, etc. in the side chain can be produced, for example, by reacting an isocyanate group-containing compound (e.g., a monoisocyanate or polyisocyanate, specifically a diisocyanate or triisocyanate) with a hydroxyl group-containing compound having a branched structure such as a tert-butyl group, isopropyl group, 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl group, etc.

[0361] Examples of polyurethane polymers include polyurethane compounds having long-chain hydrocarbon groups, which contain sorbitan tristearate, sorbitan monostearate, and polyfunctional isocyanurate, as described in US Patent Publication 2014 / 0295724.

Examples of polyurethane polymers include polyurethanes having long-chain hydrocarbon groups, as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2019-519653 (International Publication No. 2018 / 007549). The disclosure of this document is incorporated herein by reference.

[0362] Organosilicon polymers having a hydrocarbon group with 3 to 40 carbon atoms in the side chain can be produced, for example, by reacting a dichlorosilane compound containing a dichlorosilane having a hydrocarbon group with 3 to 40 carbon atoms.

[0363] Polyorganosilicons having a branched structure such as a tert-butyl group, isopropyl group, 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl group, etc. in the side chain can be produced, for example, by reacting a dichlorosilane compound containing a dichlorosilane having a branched structure such as a tert-butyl group, isopropyl group, 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl group, etc.

[0364] An example of an organosilicon polymer is long-chain alkyl-modified polydimethylsiloxane.

[0365] Acrylic polymers having a hydrocarbon group with 3 to 40 carbon atoms in the side chain can be produced by polymerizing monomers containing acrylic monomers having a hydrocarbon group with 3 to 40 carbon atoms in the side chain. Examples of acrylic monomers are the same as those described in the above hydrophobic monomer (1). Specific examples of acrylic monomers are, for example:

[0366] (Meth)acrylic acid stearyl ester, (meth)acrylic acid docosyl ester,

[0367]

[0368] (especially (meth)acrylic acid stearic acid amide ethyl ester)

[0369] [In the above formula, n is a number from 7 to 40, and m is a number from 1 to 5.].

[0370] An acrylic polymer having a branched structure such as a tert-butyl group, an isopropyl group, or a 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl group in the side chain can be produced by polymerizing a monomer containing an acrylic monomer having a branched structure such as a tert-butyl group, an isopropyl group, or a 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl group in the side chain. Examples of the acrylic monomer are the same as those described in the above hydrophobic monomer (1). Specific examples of the acrylic monomer are, for example, (meth)acrylic acid tert-butyl ester, (meth)acrylic acid isopropyl ester, and 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl acrylate.

[0371] As an example of the acrylic polymer, there is a polymer containing a repeating unit derived from an acrylic monomer having a long-chain hydrocarbon group such as (meth)acrylic acid docosyl ester or (meth)acrylic acid stearyl ester, and a repeating unit derived from vinylidene chloride and / or vinyl chloride.

[0372] As an example of the acrylic polymer, there is a polymer containing a repeating unit derived from an acrylic monomer having a long-chain hydrocarbon group such as (meth)acrylic acid docosyl ester or (meth)acrylic acid stearyl ester, a repeating unit derived from vinylidene chloride and / or vinyl chloride, and a repeating unit derived from styrene or α-methylstyrene. This acrylic polymer can be used in admixture with paraffin. This example is described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-522062 (International Publication No. 2010 / 115496). The disclosure of this document is incorporated herein by reference.

[0373] As an example of the acrylic polymer, there is a polymer containing a repeating unit derived from an acrylic monomer having a long-chain hydrocarbon group such as (meth)acrylic acid stearyl ester, a repeating unit derived from vinylidene chloride and / or vinyl chloride, and a repeating unit derived from a reactive emulsifier such as polyoxyalkylene vinyl ether. This is described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2017-25440 (International Publication No. 2017 / 014131). The disclosure of this document is incorporated herein by reference.

[0374] In a fluoropolymer having a fluoroalkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms in the side chain, the fluoroalkyl group is preferably a perfluoroalkyl group.

[0375] Examples of the fluorine-containing water-repellent resin include fluorine-containing acrylic polymers containing repeating units formed from (meth)acrylates having a perfluoroalkyl group with 4 to 8 carbon atoms in the side chain and long-chain alkyl (meth)acrylates such as docosyl (meth)acrylate or stearyl (meth)acrylate.

[0376] Other monomers can also be used in polyurethane polymers, silicone polymers, acrylic polymers, and polystyrene, which are non-fluorine polymers and fluorine-containing polymers.

[0377] Examples of other monomers include, for example, ethylene, vinyl acetate, acrylonitrile, vinyl chloride, poly(ethylene glycol) (meth)acrylate, poly(propylene glycol) (meth)acrylate, methoxypoly(ethylene glycol) (meth)acrylate, methoxypoly(propylene glycol) (meth)acrylate, (meth)acrylates having a polydimethylsiloxane in the side chain, and vinyl alkyl ethers. Other monomers are not limited to these examples.

[0378] (D) Surfactant

[0379] The water-repellent composition may or may not contain a surfactant (emulsifier). Usually, in order to stabilize the particles during polymerization and the aqueous dispersion after polymerization, a small amount (for example, 0.01 to 15 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the monomer) of a surfactant can be added during polymerization, or a surfactant can be added after polymerization.

[0380] When the object to be treated is a fiber product, particularly in the water-repellent composition, the surfactant preferably contains a nonionic surfactant. In addition, the surfactant preferably contains one or more surfactants selected from cationic surfactants, anionic surfactants, and amphoteric surfactants. A combination of a nonionic surfactant and a cationic surfactant is preferably used.

[0381] Each of the nonionic surfactant, cationic surfactant, and amphoteric surfactant can be one kind or a combination of two or more.

[0382] The amount of the surfactant can be 15 parts by weight or less (for example, 0 to 15 parts by weight or 0.01 to 15 parts by weight) relative to 100 parts by weight of the organic fine particles (A), and is preferably 8 parts by weight or less. Generally, if a surfactant is added, the stability of the aqueous dispersion and the permeability to the cloth are improved, but the water-repellent performance is reduced. In order to balance these effects, it is preferable to select the type and amount of the surfactant.

[0383] (E) Crosslinking agent

[0384] The crosslinking agent (E) is preferably a substance that undergoes crosslinking upon heating after treating the fabric with an aqueous dispersion of organic fine particles. Additionally, it is preferred that the crosslinking agent itself is also dispersed in water.

[0385] Preferred examples of the crosslinking agent (E) are blocked isocyanate compounds. Blocked isocyanate compounds can be produced by reacting

[0386] [which may be A(NCO) m (wherein A is the group remaining after removing the isocyanate group from the polyisocyanate, and m is an integer from 2 to 8).] isocyanate with

[0387] [which may be RH (wherein R may be a hydrocarbon group that can be substituted by a heteroatom such as a nitrogen atom or an oxygen atom, and H is a hydrogen atom)] blocking agent.

[0388] A(NCO) m For example, it is benzylidene diisocyanate (TDI), diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), etc.

[0389] Examples of the blocking agent that forms the R group are oxime, phenol, alcohol, thiol, amide, imide, imidazole, urea, amine, imine, pyrazole, and active methylene compounds.

[0390] As the crosslinking agent (E), blocked isocyanates such as oxime-blocked toluene diisocyanate, blocked hexamethylene diisocyanate, and blocked diphenylmethane diisocyanate are preferred.

[0391] The amount of the crosslinking agent (E) can be 0 to 30 parts by weight or 0.01 to 20 parts by weight, for example, 0.1 to 15 parts by weight, relative to a total of 100 parts by weight of the organic fine particles (A) and the binder resin (C).

[0392] (F) Additive

[0393] In addition to containing the organic fine particles (A), the aqueous medium (B), and, if necessary, the binder resin (C), the surfactant (D), and / or the crosslinking agent (E), the water-repellent composition may further contain an additive (F).

[0394] Examples of the additive are: other water-repellent agents, oil-repellent agents, drying rate adjusters, film-forming aids, compatibilizers, anti-freezing agents, viscosity adjusters, ultraviolet absorbers, antioxidants, pH adjusters, defoaming agents, texture adjusters, slipperiness adjusters, antistatic agents, hydrophilic agents, antibacterial agents, preservatives, insect repellents, fragrances, flame retardants, and so on.

[0395] The amount of the additive can be 0 to 20 parts by weight or 0.05 to 20 parts by weight, for example, 0.1 to 10 parts by weight, relative to a total of 100 parts by weight of the organic fine particles (A) and the binder resin (C).

[0396] The polymer (the polymer constituting the organic fine particles and the polymer constituting the binder resin) can be produced by any conventional polymerization method, and the conditions of the polymerization reaction can also be arbitrarily selected. Examples of such polymerization methods include solution polymerization, suspension polymerization, and emulsion polymerization. Emulsion polymerization is preferred.

[0397] The production method of the polymer is not limited as long as a water-repellent composition in the form of an aqueous dispersion can be obtained. For example, the polymer (organic fine particles) can be produced by polymerizing the monomers for the organic fine particles in an aqueous medium in the presence or absence of a surfactant. Alternatively, after producing the polymer by solution polymerization, a surfactant and water are added and the solvent is removed to obtain an aqueous dispersion.

[0398] When the water-repellent composition contains organic fine particles and a binder resin, the water-repellent composition containing organic fine particles and a binder resin can be produced by separately producing an aqueous dispersion of the organic fine particles and an aqueous dispersion of the binder resin and mixing the aqueous dispersion of the organic fine particles with the aqueous dispersion of the binder resin. Alternatively, in the aqueous dispersion of the organic fine particles, the monomers for the binder resin are polymerized to produce a water-repellent composition containing organic fine particles and a binder resin. In addition, in the aqueous dispersion of the binder resin, the monomers for the organic fine particles are polymerized to produce a water-repellent composition containing organic fine particles and a binder resin.

[0399] In emulsion polymerization without using a surfactant, in an aqueous medium, it is preferred to polymerize the monomers at a low concentration (for example, the monomer concentration is 1 to 30% by weight, especially 1 to 15% by weight).

[0400] In emulsion polymerization using a surfactant or a reactive emulsifier, it is preferred to add a small amount (30 mole parts or less, for example, 0.1 to 20 mole parts relative to 100 mole parts of the total monomers) of monomer (1) whose static contact angle of water of the homopolymer is 95 degrees or more or monomer (2). Thereby, polymerization can be carried out at a high concentration and the water repellency of the polymer is improved.

[0401] Examples of the additional monomers are tert-butylstyrene, stearyl (meth)acrylate, docosyl (meth)acrylate, 2,6,8-trimethylnonan-4-yl acrylate, 2,4-di-tert-butylstyrene, 2,4,6-trimethylstyrene, stearic acid amidoethyl (meth)acrylate, CH 2 =CHC(=O)OC 2 H4 NHSO 2 C 18 H 37 , 4-tert-butylphenyl (meth)acrylate, 2,3,4-trimethylphenyl (meth)acrylate, and

[0402] (meth)acrylic monomers having a polydimethylsiloxanyl group,

[0403] CH 2 =C(−R 92 )−C(=O)−Y 91 −R 91 the monomers shown

[0404] [wherein, R 91 is a group having a polydimethylsiloxanyl group,

[0405] R 92 is a hydrogen atom, a monovalent organic group, or a halogen atom,

[0406] Y 91 is a 2- to 4-valent group composed of at least one selected from a C1 hydrocarbon group having 2 to 4 valences, −C 6 H 4 −, −O−, −C(=O)−, −S(=O) 2 − or −NR'− (R' is H or a C1-4 hydrocarbon group).].

[0407] When the ratio of monomer (5) and monomer (3) is 35 mol parts or more as all the monomers constituting the organic fine particles, the monomer (1) in which the static contact angle of water of the homopolymer is 95 degrees or more is preferably 1 to 70 mol parts, for example, 1 to 60 mol parts.

[0408] In solution polymerization, a method is adopted in which, in the presence of a polymerization initiator, monomers are dissolved in an organic solvent, and after nitrogen substitution, heating and stirring are carried out at 30 to 120 °C for 1 to 10 hours. As the polymerization initiator, for example, azobisisobutyronitrile, benzoyl peroxide, di-tert-butyl peroxide, lauryl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, tert-butyl peroxyneopentanoate, diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, etc. can be cited. The polymerization initiator can be used in the range of 0.01 to 20 mol parts, for example, 0.01 to 10 mol parts, relative to 100 mol parts of the monomers.

[0409] An organic solvent is a substance that is inert to monomers and can dissolve or uniformly disperse them. For example, it can be an ester (such as an ester having 2 to 30 carbon atoms, specifically ethyl acetate, butyl acetate), a ketone (such as a ketone having 2 to 30 carbon atoms, specifically methyl ethyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone), an alcohol (such as an alcohol having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, specifically isopropyl alcohol, ethanol, methanol). Specific examples of the organic solvent include acetone, chloroform, HCHC225, isopropyl alcohol, pentane, hexane, heptane, octane, cyclohexane, benzene, toluene, xylene, petroleum ether, tetrahydrofuran, 1,4 - dioxane, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, 1,1,2,2 - tetrachloroethane, 1,1,1 - trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene, tetrachlorodifluoroethane, trichlorotrifluoroethane, etc. If the total of the monomer and the organic solvent is set to 100 parts by weight, the organic solvent can be used in the range of 50 to 99.5 parts by weight, for example, 70 to 99 parts by weight.

[0410] In the case of emulsion polymerization, a method is adopted in which monomers are emulsified in water in the presence of a polymerization initiator and an emulsifier, and after nitrogen replacement, they are stirred for 1 to 10 hours in the range of 30 to 80 °C to effect polymerization. As the polymerization initiator, water-soluble substances such as benzoyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, tert-butyl peroxybenzoate, 1 - hydroxycyclohexyl hydroperoxide, 3 - carboxypropionyl peroxide, acetyl peroxide, azobisisobutylamidine dihydrochloride, 2,2'-azobis(2 - methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride, 4,4'-azobis(4 - cyanovaleric acid), 2,2'-azobis[2 - methyl - N-(2 - hydroxyethyl)propionamide], 2,2'-azobis[2-(2 - imidazolin - 2 - yl)propane] dihydrochloride, 2,2'-azobis[2-(2 - imidazolin - 2 - yl)propane], sodium peroxide, potassium persulfate, ammonium persulfate, etc., or oil-soluble substances such as azobisisobutyronitrile, benzoyl peroxide, di-tert-butyl peroxide, lauryl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, tert-butyl peroxyneopentanoate, diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, etc. The polymerization initiator can be used in the range of 0.01 to 10 moles per 100 moles of the monomer. Reducing agents such as sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate (Rongalit), ascorbic acid, tartaric acid, sodium dithionite, isoascorbic acid, ferrous sulfate, etc. can also be used together as needed.

[0411] As the emulsifier, various anionic, cationic or nonionic emulsifiers can be used, and can be used in the range of 0.5 to 20 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the monomer. It is preferred to use anionic and / or nonionic and / or cationic emulsifiers. In the case where the monomers are completely immiscible, it is also preferred to add a compatibilizer that makes these monomers fully compatible, such as a water-soluble organic solvent. By adding the compatibilizer, the emulsifying property and copolymerizability can be improved.

[0412] Examples of the water-soluble organic solvent include acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, ethyl acetate, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, ethanol, methanol, etc., and can be used in the range of 0.1 to 50 parts by weight, for example, 1 to 40 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of water.

[0413] In the polymerization, a chain transfer agent can also be used. Depending on the amount of the chain transfer agent used, the molecular weight of the polymer can be changed. Examples of the chain transfer agent include thiol group-containing compounds such as lauryl mercaptan, mercaptoethanol, and thioglycerol (especially (for example, alkyl mercaptans having 1 to 30 carbon atoms)), and inorganic salts such as sodium hypophosphite and sodium bisulfite. The amount of the chain transfer agent used can also be in the range of 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, for example, 0.1 to 5 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the total amount of the monomers.

[0414] The water-repellent composition is usually preferably an aqueous dispersion. The water-repellent composition comprises a polymer (the active ingredient of the water-repellent composition) and an aqueous medium. The amount of the aqueous medium can be, for example, 50 to 99.9% by weight, particularly 70 to 99.5% by weight relative to the water-repellent composition.

[0415] In the water-repellent composition, the concentration of the polymer can be 0.1 to 50% by weight, for example, 0.5 to 40% by weight.

[0416] The water-repellent composition (and the aqueous dispersion of organic fine particles) can be used as an external treatment agent (surface treatment agent) or an internal treatment agent. The water-repellent composition (and the aqueous dispersion of organic fine particles) can be used as an oil-repellent agent, an antifouling agent, a dirt release agent, a peeling agent or a mold release agent.

[0417] When the water-repellent composition is an external treatment agent, it can be applied to the object to be treated by known methods. Generally, the following method is adopted: the water-repellent composition is dispersed and diluted in an organic solvent or water, and is attached to the surface of the object to be treated by known methods such as dip coating, spraying, and dip coating, and then dried. Additionally, if necessary, it can also be applied together with a suitable crosslinking agent (e.g., blocked isocyanate) for curing. Furthermore, an insect repellent, a softener, an antibacterial agent, a flame retardant, an antistatic agent, a coating fixing agent, a wrinkle-proof agent, etc. can be added to the water-repellent composition for use together. The concentration of the polymer in the treatment liquid in contact with the substrate can be 0.01 to 10% by weight (especially in the case of dip coating), for example, 0.05 to 10% by weight.

[0418] Examples of the object to be treated with the water-repellent composition (and the aqueous dispersion of organic fine particles) include: fiber products, stone, filters (e.g., electrostatic filters), dust masks, components of fuel cells (e.g., gas diffusion electrodes and gas diffusion supports), glass, paper, wood, leather, fur, asbestos, bricks, cement, metals and oxides, ceramic products, plastics, painted surfaces, and gypsum, etc. Various examples can be cited for fiber products. For example, animal and plant natural fibers such as cotton, hemp, wool, and silk, synthetic fibers such as polyamide, polyester, polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl chloride, and polypropylene, semi-synthetic fibers such as rayon and acetate fiber, inorganic fibers such as glass fiber, carbon fiber, and asbestos fiber, or their mixed fibers can be cited.

[0419] The fiber product can be in any form such as fiber or cloth.

[0420] The water-repellent composition can also be used as an antifouling agent, a release agent, a mold release agent (e.g., an internal mold release agent or an external mold release agent). For example, the surface of the substrate can be easily peeled off from other surfaces (other surfaces of the substrate or surfaces of other substrates).

[0421] The organic fine particles can be applied to a fibrous substrate (e.g., fiber products, etc.) by any known method for treating fiber products with a liquid. When the fiber product is cloth, the cloth can be immersed in the solution, or the solution can be attached to or sprayed on the cloth. The treated fiber product is dried in order to exhibit water repellency, and is preferably heated at 100°C to 200°C, for example.

[0422] Alternatively, the organic fine particles can be applied to the fiber product by a cleaning method, for example, applied to the fiber product in a washing application or a dry cleaning method, etc.

[0423] When heat treatment is performed at 170°C for 1 minute after attachment to a substrate, it is preferable that the average diameter of the organic fine particles after heat treatment is 50% or more of the average diameter of the organic fine particles before heat treatment. It is preferable that the average diameter (average particle size) of the organic fine particles after heat treatment is 60% or more, for example, 70% or more of the average diameter (average particle size) of the organic fine particles before heat treatment. Alternatively, after coating the particles on a substrate (including cloth), the average particle size of the fine particles observable on the substrate is preferably 50 to 700 nm.

[0424] The average diameter of the organic fine particles before heat treatment is determined by the particle size of the fine particles measured by dynamic light scattering method (DLS) from the aqueous dispersion of the organic fine particles (when two or more peaks are observed in the DLS measurement, it is not the average particle size of all the peaks, but the average particle size calculated only from the peak with a smaller particle size) or the average diameter of the organic fine particles before heat treatment attached to the substrate. When the values of the two are different, the smaller one is used.

[0425] The average diameter of the organic fine particles on the substrate means the average of the particle diameters of 10 randomly selected independent minimum units observed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) after attaching the organic fine particles to the substrate. Generally, the average diameter of the organic fine particles after heat treatment means the average of the particle diameters of 10 randomly selected independent minimum units observed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) on the substrate after coating the dispersion liquid of the organic fine particles on the substrate (for example, cloth) and performing heat treatment at 170°C for 1 minute. For example, when the substrate is cloth, after immersing the cloth in the aqueous dispersion containing the organic fine particles, tying the cloth with a cloth-tying machine, and passing it through a pin tenter at 170°C for 1 minute, a cloth with attached organic fine particles can be produced. The average diameter of the organic fine particles before heat treatment means the average of the particle diameters of 10 randomly selected independent minimum units observed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) on the substrate after coating the dispersion liquid of the organic fine particles on the substrate (for example, cloth) and air-drying for 1 hour or more.

[0426] The fiber products to be treated are typically cloth, including woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, and non-woven fabrics, cloth in the form of clothing and blankets, but can also be fibers or yarns or intermediate fiber products (for example, scraps or rovings, etc.). The fiber product material can be natural fibers (for example, cotton or wool, etc.), chemical fibers (for example, viscose rayon or lyocell, etc.) or synthetic fibers (for example, polyester, polyamide or acrylic fibers, etc.), or can be a mixture of fibers (for example, a mixture of natural fibers and synthetic fibers, etc.).

[0427] Alternatively, the fibrous substrate can be leather. In order to make the leather hydrophobic and oleophobic, organic fine particles can be applied to the leather from an aqueous solution or an aqueous emulsion at various stages of leather processing, for example, during the wet processing of the leather or during the finishing of the leather.

[0428] Alternatively, the fibrous substrate may be paper. The organic fine particles may be applied to a pre-formed paper, or applied at various stages of papermaking, for example, during the drying of the paper.

[0429] "Treatment" means applying a treatment agent to an object to be treated by impregnation, spraying, coating, etc. Through treatment, the organic fine particles, which are the active ingredients of the treatment agent, penetrate into the interior of the object to be treated and / or adhere to the surface of the object to be treated.

[0430] In the treated substrate (especially a fiber product), the slipping speed of water is preferably 100 mm / s or more, for example, 130 mm / s or more, further 150 mm / s or more or 200 mm / s or more.

[0431] The treated substrate exhibits an anti-frosting effect.

[0432] The above describes the embodiments, but it can be understood that various changes can be made to the embodiments and details without departing from the gist and scope of the claims of the patent.

[0433] Examples

[0434] Hereinafter, examples are listed to describe the present invention in detail, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

[0435] Hereinafter, parts or % or ratio means parts by weight or % by weight or weight ratio unless otherwise specified.

[0436] The order of the tests is as follows.

[0437] 〔Number-average molecular weight (Mn), weight-average molecular weight (Mw), molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn)〕

[0438] The number-average molecular weight (Mn), weight-average molecular weight (Mw), and molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) are determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). For GPC, tetrahydrofuran is used as the eluent, and KF-606M, KF-601, and KF-800D manufactured by Shodex are used as the chromatographic columns. The molecular weight and the like are calculated in terms of polystyrene.

[0439] 〔Thermal property measurement by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)〕

[0440] The melting point of the polymer was calculated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The DSC measurement was carried out in a nitrogen atmosphere. After cooling to -20 °C, it was heated to 200 °C at a rate of 10 °C / min, then cooled again to -20 °C, and then heated to 200 °C at a rate of 10 °C / min. The melting point observed during this process was measured. In polymers showing multiple melting peaks, the peak with the largest heat of fusion originating from the melting of the long-chain alkyl group was taken as the melting point. The glass transition temperature (glass transition point) was determined as the temperature represented by the midpoint of the intersection of the extension lines of the respective baselines before and after the secondary transition of the DSC curve and the tangent line at the inflection point of the DSC curve.

[0441] [Measurement of the particle size of the dispersion]

[0442] For the dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurement, ZEN1600 manufactured by MALVERN was used to determine the average diameter of the particles in the dispersion. The aqueous dispersion of the organic fine particles was diluted with pure water to a solid content concentration of 0.1%, and the measurement was carried out at 25 °C. The analysis of the particle size distribution was based on the scattering intensity standard.

[0443] [Measurement of the static contact angle]

[0444] (Synthesis Examples L1 - L5)

[0445] A chloroform solution of the polymer (solid content concentration 1.0%) was spin-coated on a silicon wafer substrate (high-purity silicon wafer for research AS ONE 2-960-55), and heated at 80 °C for 15 minutes to form a coating film. 2 μL of water was dropped onto this coating film, and the static contact angle 1 second after the drop was measured using a fully automatic contact angle meter (Drop Master 701 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science).

[0446] (Organic fine particles)

[0447] The contact angle of the organic fine particles was measured as follows: The aqueous dispersion of the organic fine particles was drop-coated on a glass substrate (made of soda-lime glass for microscope slides), and heated at 150 °C for 3 minutes to form a substrate with the organic fine particles attached. 2 μL of water was dropped onto the glass substrate with the organic fine particles attached, and the static contact angle 1 second after the drop was measured using a fully automatic contact angle meter (Drop Master 701 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science). The contact angle of the organic fine particles on the glass substrate is preferably 100° or more, more preferably 110° or more, and even more preferably 118° or more.

[0448] In addition, the static contact angle of water on a cloth (PET cloth) treated with the aqueous dispersion of the organic fine particles or the composition containing the organic fine particles and the binder resin was measured as follows: The PET cloth (unit area weight: 88 g / m 2, 70 denier, gray) is immersed in an aqueous dispersion of organic particles or a composition containing organic particles and a binder resin, then cloth is woven using a loom, and it is passed through a pin tenter at 170 °C for 1 minute to prepare a PET cloth with organic particles attached thereto. 2 μL of water is dropped onto the PET cloth, and the static contact angle 1 second after the drop is measured using a fully automatic contact angle meter (Drop Master 701 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd.). The contact angle of the organic particles on the cloth (PET cloth) is preferably 120° or more, more preferably 130° or more, and even more preferably 140° or more.

[0449] The contact angle of the aqueous dispersion of the binder resin is measured as follows: The aqueous dispersion of the binder resin is drop-coated on a glass substrate (made of soda-lime glass slide), heated at 150 °C for 3 minutes to form a coating film, 2 μL of water is dropped onto the coating film, and the static contact angle 1 second after the drop is measured using a fully automatic contact angle meter (Drop Master 701 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd.).

[0450] 〔Sliding speed test〕

[0451] In the sliding speed test, a PET cloth (unit area weight: 88 g / m 2 , 70 denier, gray) is immersed in an aqueous dispersion of organic particles or a composition containing organic particles and a binder resin, then cloth is woven using a loom, and it is passed through a pin tenter at 170 °C for 1 minute to prepare a PET cloth with organic particles attached thereto. Using a fully automatic contact angle meter (DropMaster 701 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd.), 20 μL of water is dropped from a microsyringe onto the PET cloth with a 30° inclination, and the manner in which the dropped water slides is measured using a high-speed camera (VW-9000 manufactured by Keyence Corporation). The average sliding speed over a distance of about 40 mm is taken as the sliding speed.

[0452] 〔Determination of solid content〕

[0453] 1 g of the obtained aqueous dispersion of organic particles is placed in an aluminum cup and dried at 150 °C for 1 hour. The solid content is calculated from the weights before and after drying.

[0454] Solid content % = (weight before drying - weight after drying) / weight before drying × 100

[0455] 〔Water repellency test〕

[0456] The aqueous dispersion of organic particles is adjusted to a specified concentration. After immersing the cloth in this test solution and tying the cloth with a cloth-tying machine, the test cloth after heat treatment is used to evaluate the water repellency. According to the spray method of JIS-L-1092 (AATCC-22), the water repellency of the treated cloth is evaluated. As shown in the table described below, it is indicated by Water Repellency No. The larger the score, the better the water repellency. The "+" of the marked number means better than that number, and "-" means worse than that number. Polyester cloth (PET) (unit area weight: 88 g / m 2 , 70 denier, gray) is used for evaluation.

[0457]

[0458] 〔Strong water repellency test〕

[0459] When testing by the spray method of JIS-L-1092 (AATCC-22), the ease of repelling water in contact with the cloth and the flow rate from the cloth are visually evaluated. The larger the score, the better the strong water repellency.

[0460]

[0461] 〔Water repellency and strong water repellency washing detergency (water repellency (after washing) and strong water repellency (after washing))〕

[0462] Washing is repeatedly carried out 20 times according to the JIS L-0217-103 method, and the water repellency and strong water repellency after that are evaluated. Preferably, after washing, the water repellency is 80 points or more and the strong water repellency is 2 points or more.

[0463] 〔Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation (particle size)〕

[0464] SEM observation is carried out by ELONIX Corporation's ERA 9000 at an acceleration voltage of 3.5 kV, Pt evaporation coating and a W.D. of 5.0 mm, and by Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation's SU8020 at an acceleration voltage of 3.0 kV, Pt evaporation coating. The particle sizes obtained by the two devices are the same.

[0465] After immersing the cloth in the composition containing organic particles and tying the cloth with a cloth-tying machine, it is passed through a pin tenter at 170 °C for 1 minute, thereby producing a cloth with organic particles attached, and the average of the particle diameters of 10 randomly selected independent minimum units observed on the cloth with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) is obtained.

[0466] The retention rate (%) of the diameter of the particles before and after heating was determined according to the following formula using the average particle diameter of the organic fine particles on the substrate after heating (the average diameter of the particles on the cloth heated at 170 °C for 1 minute) determined by SEM observation and the average particle diameter of the organic fine particles before heating (the smaller of the average particle diameter of the fine particle dispersion determined by DLS measurement or the average particle diameter on the substrate before heating determined by SEM observation).

[0467] Retention rate (%) of the average diameter of the particles before and after heating = (Average particle diameter after heating) / (Average particle diameter before heating) × 100

[0468] 〔Measurement of dark color property〕

[0469] Using a color difference meter (manufactured by Minolta Co., Ltd., Color Difference Meter CR-200, the detection part is a circle with a diameter of 8 mm), L was measured at three positions on each treated cloth. The color difference (ΔL) was calculated from the L of the cloth before treatment with the treatment liquid and the L after treatment according to the following formula.

[0470] ΔL = (L value of the cloth after treatment) - (L value of the cloth before treatment)
