AI Technical Summary
During the manufacturing process of laminated glass, high temperature and high pressure treatment based on autoclaves require a large amount of equipment investment, and there are problems such as large carbon dioxide emissions and deterioration of functional films. At the same time, without autoclave treatment, laminated glass is prone to blistering at the end or reducing transparency.
An intermediate film for laminated glass having a structure of one or two or more layers is used. The intermediate film can maintain a thickness change of 50 μm or more than 325 μm during the compression creep test. By including a thermoplastic resin and a plasticizer, it is ensured that the laminated glass does not bubble when produced under low temperature and low pressure conditions, and the transparency is improved.
It effectively inhibits the occurrence of bubbles at the ends of laminated glass, improves the transparency of laminated glass, reduces equipment investment and carbon dioxide emissions, and maintains production capacity.

[0035] (Interlayer film for laminated glass)
[0036] The interlayer film for laminated glass of the present invention (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "interlayer film") has a structure of 1 layer or a structure of 2 or more layers.

[0037] Compression creep test: In a state where a load of 410 g is applied to test sample A, the temperature is raised from 30 °C to 90 °C at 6 °C per minute, held at 90 °C for 5 minutes, and the absolute value of the difference between the thickness of test sample A at 30 °C just after holding for 5 minutes at 30 °C before starting the compression creep test and the thickness of test sample A at 90 °C just after holding for 5 minutes at 90 °C at the end of the compression creep test is defined as the change amount of the thickness of test sample A before and after the compression creep test.
[0038] Specifically, in an environment of 30 °C, a load of 410 g is applied to test sample A, and in a state where this load is applied, it is held at 30 °C for 5 minutes, and the thickness of test sample A at 30 °C just after holding for 5 minutes at 30 °C is measured. In addition, in an environment of 30 °C, a load of 410 g is applied to test sample A, and in a state where this load is applied, it is held at 30 °C for 5 minutes, then the temperature is raised from 30 °C to 90 °C at 6 °C per minute, and then held at 90 °C for 5 minutes, and the thickness of test sample A at 90 °C just after holding for 5 minutes at 90 °C is measured. A load of 410 g is applied to test sample A, and the thickness is measured in a state where the load is applied until the thickness of test sample A at 90 °C just after holding for 5 minutes at 90 °C is measured.
[0039] The interlayer film for laminated glass of the present invention (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "interlayer film") has a structure of 1 layer or a structure of 2 or more layers. The first layer of the interlayer film of the present invention has a thickness of 200 μm or more and 900 μm or less. In the interlayer film of the present invention, the thickness of the first layer is set as T B μm, for a test sample B with a diameter of 8 mm and a thickness of T obtained by cutting the first layer B μm, when the following compression creep test is performed on the test sample B, the change in the thickness of the test sample B before and after the compression creep test is 50 μm or more and 325 μm or less.
[0040] Compression creep test: In a state where a load of 410 g is applied to the test sample B, the temperature is raised from 30°C to 90°C at 6°C / minute, held at 90°C for 5 minutes, and the absolute value of the difference between the thickness of the test sample B at 30°C just after holding for 30 minutes before the start of the compression creep test and the thickness of the test sample B at 90°C just after holding for 5 minutes at the end of the compression creep test is defined as the change in the thickness of the test sample B before and after the compression creep test.
[0041] Specifically, in an environment of 30°C, a load of 410 g is applied to the test sample B, and in the state where this load is applied, it is held at 30°C for 30 minutes, and the thickness of the test sample B at 30°C just after holding for 30 minutes is measured. In addition, in an environment of 30°C, a load of 410 g is applied to the test sample B, and in the state where this load is applied, it is held at 30°C for 30 minutes, then the temperature is raised from 30°C to 90°C at 6°C / minute, and then held at 90°C for 5 minutes, and the thickness of the test sample B at 90°C just after holding for 5 minutes is measured. A load of 410 g is applied to the test sample B, and the thickness is measured in the state where the load is applied until the thickness of the test sample B at 90°C just after holding for 5 minutes is measured.
[0042] The interlayer film for laminated glass of the present invention (hereinafter, sometimes simply referred to as "interlayer film") has a structure of 1 layer or a structure of 2 or more layers. The interlayer film of the present invention includes a first layer. In the interlayer film of the present invention, the thickness of the interlayer film is 80 μm or more and 1600 μm or less. In the interlayer film of the present invention, the thickness of the interlayer film is set to T C μm, for a test sample C with a diameter of 8 mm and a thickness of T obtained by cutting the interlayer film C μm, when the following compression creep test is performed on the test sample C, the change in the thickness of the test sample C before and after the compression creep test is 50 μm or more and 325 μm or less.
[0043] Compression creep test: In a state where a load of 410 g is applied to the test sample C, the temperature is raised from 30°C to 90°C at 6°C / minute, held at 90°C for 5 minutes, and the absolute value of the difference between the thickness of the test sample C at 30°C at the start of the compression creep test and the thickness of the test sample C at 90°C just after holding for 5 minutes at the end of the compression creep test is defined as the change in the thickness of the test sample C before and after the compression creep test.
[0044] Specifically, a load of 410 g was applied to test sample C in an environment of 30°C, and the thickness of test sample C at 30°C just after applying this load was measured. In addition, a load of 410 g was applied to test sample C in an environment of 30°C. In the state where this load was applied, immediately after applying the load, the temperature was raised from 30°C to 90°C at 6°C per minute, and then held at 90°C for 5 minutes. The thickness of test sample C at 90°C just after holding for 5 minutes at 90°C was measured. A load of 410 g was applied to test sample C, and the thickness was measured in the state where the load was applied until the thickness of test sample C at 90°C just after holding for 5 minutes at 90°C was measured.
[0045] In the interlayer film of the present invention, due to having the above-described configuration, even without performing high-temperature and high-pressure treatment using an autoclave, the occurrence of blisters at the ends of laminated glass can be suppressed, and the transparency of laminated glass can be improved.
[0046] In the interlayer film of the present invention, compared with high-temperature and high-pressure treatment using an autoclave, laminated glass can be manufactured under conditions of low temperature and low pressure (for example, 100°C or lower and 0.5 MPa or lower). Therefore, laminated glass can be manufactured without a large amount of equipment investment in equipment such as autoclaves, and the amount of carbon dioxide emissions during the manufacture of laminated glass can be reduced. In addition, the production capacity based on the conventional method for manufacturing laminated glass by performing autoclave treatment can be maintained.
[0047] In addition, in the case of the interlayer film of the present invention, the penetration resistance of laminated glass can be improved.
[0048] The interlayer film of the present invention has a structure of one layer or a structure of two or more layers. The interlayer film of the present invention may have a structure of one layer, may have a structure of two layers, may have a structure of two or more layers, may have a structure of three layers, may have a structure of three or more layers, may have a structure of four or more layers. The interlayer film of the present invention has a first layer. The interlayer film of the present invention may be a single-layer interlayer film having only the first layer, or may be a multi-layer interlayer film having the first layer and other layers.
[0049] The interlayer film may have a structure of two or more layers, and may have a second layer in addition to the first layer. In the case where the interlayer film has the second layer, the second layer is disposed on the first surface side of the first layer.
[0050] In the case where the interlayer film is a multi-layer interlayer film having a structure of two or more layers, the interlayer film has a first surface layer and a second surface layer.
[0051] In the intermediate film, it is preferable to have the first layer as the surface layer in the intermediate film. The first layer is preferably the surface layer of the intermediate film. In the intermediate film, it is preferable to have the first layer as the first surface layer, and more preferably to have the first layer as the first surface layer and the second surface layer. In this case, the effects of the present invention can be further effectively exerted. It should be noted that in the case where the intermediate film is a single-layer intermediate film having only the first layer, the first layer is the surface layer.
[0052] The intermediate film may have a structure of three or more layers, and a third layer may be provided in addition to the first layer and the second layer. When the intermediate film has the third layer, the third layer is disposed on the surface side of the second layer opposite to the first layer.
[0053] Hereinafter, the compression creep test performed in the present invention will be described in more detail.
[0054] Test sample A is a test sample having a diameter of 8 mm and a thickness of 0.8 mm obtained by cutting the first layer. The test sample A can be prepared by the following method: after peeling the layer to be measured (the first layer) from the intermediate film, it is compression molded at 150 °C. The test sample A is prepared for the compression creep test.
[0055] Test sample B is prepared using the first layer having a thickness of 200 μm or more and 900 μm or less. When the thickness of the first layer is set to T B μm, test sample B is a test sample having a diameter of 8 mm and a thickness of T B μm obtained by cutting the first layer. Therefore, the thickness of the first layer is the same as the thickness of the test sample B.
[0056] Test sample C is prepared using an intermediate film having a thickness of 80 μm or more and 1600 μm or less. When the thickness of the intermediate film is set to T C μm, test sample C is a test sample having a diameter of 8 mm and a thickness of T C μm obtained by cutting the intermediate film. Therefore, the thickness of the intermediate film is the same as the thickness of the test sample C.
[0057] In the compression creep test, test samples A, B, and C are arranged between a first jig having a circular surface with a diameter of 8 mm and a second jig having a circular surface with a diameter of 8 mm. While applying a load of 410 g in the thickness direction of test samples A, B, and C, the temperature is raised from 30°C to 90°C at a rate of 6°C per minute, held at 90°C for 5 minutes, and the absolute value of the difference between the thicknesses of test samples A, B, and C at 30°C, which had been held at 30°C for 5 minutes or 30 minutes immediately before the start of the compression creep test, and the thicknesses of test samples A, B, and C at 90°C, which had been held at 90°C for 5 minutes immediately after the end of the compression creep test, is defined as the change in the thicknesses of test samples A, B, and C before and after the compression creep test. It should be noted that generally, the thicknesses of test samples A, B, and C after the compression creep test are less than the thicknesses of test samples A, B, and C before the compression creep test.
[0058] As a device that can be used in the compression creep test, for example, a viscoelasticity measuring device (such as "RSA-G2" manufactured by T·A·INSTRUMENTS) can be cited. In addition, the thicknesses of test samples A, B, and C before and after the compression test can be measured by monitoring the gap between the compression measurement jigs of the viscoelasticity measuring device. When using RSA-G2, the measurement can be carried out by setting the sensor mode to a spring.
[0059] In the intermediate film, when the compression creep test is performed on test sample A, the change in the thickness of test sample A before and after the compression creep test is 50 μm or more and 325 μm or less. When the change amount is less than 50 μm, the transparency of the laminated glass tends to decrease. When the change amount exceeds 325 μm, bubbles are likely to occur at the ends of the laminated glass.
[0060] The change in the thickness of test sample A before and after the compression creep test is preferably 75 μm or more, more preferably 100 μm or more, preferably 300 μm or less, and more preferably 250 μm or less. When the change amount is above the lower limit, the transparency of the laminated glass can be further improved. When the change amount is below the upper limit, the occurrence of bubbles at the ends of the laminated glass can be further effectively suppressed.
[0061] In the intermediate film, when the compression creep test is performed on test sample B, the change in the thickness of test sample B before and after the compression creep test is 50 μm or more and 325 μm or less. When the change amount is less than 50 μm, the transparency of the laminated glass tends to decrease. When the change amount exceeds 325 μm, bubbles are likely to occur at the ends of the laminated glass.
[0062] The change in the thickness of test sample B before and after the compression creep test is preferably 75 μm or more, more preferably 100 μm or more, preferably 300 μm or less, and more preferably 250 μm or less. When the change is above the lower limit, the transparency of the laminated glass can be further improved. When the change is below the upper limit, the occurrence of blisters at the ends of the laminated glass can be further effectively suppressed.
[0063] In the interlayer film, when the compression creep test is performed on test sample C, the change in the thickness of test sample C before and after the compression creep test is 50 μm or more and 325 μm or less. When the change is less than 50 μm, the transparency of the laminated glass tends to decrease. When the change exceeds 325 μm, blisters tend to occur at the ends of the laminated glass.
[0064] The change in the thickness of test sample C before and after the compression creep test is preferably 75 μm or more, more preferably 100 μm or more, preferably 300 μm or less, and more preferably 250 μm or less. When the change is above the lower limit, the transparency of the laminated glass can be further improved. When the change is below the upper limit, the occurrence of blisters at the ends of the laminated glass can be further effectively suppressed.
[0065] It should be noted that as a method for controlling the change in the thickness of test samples A, B, and C before and after the compression creep test within the preferred range, the following methods can be cited. (1) When the average degree of polymerization of the thermoplastic resin contained in the first layer or the interlayer film increases, the change becomes smaller. (2) When the content of the plasticizer contained in the first layer or the interlayer film increases, the change becomes larger. (3) When the hydrogen bond force of the resin contained in the first layer or the interlayer film becomes stronger, the change becomes smaller. By appropriately combining these methods, the change can be controlled within the preferred range.

The intermediate film 11 is an intermediate film for laminated glass. The intermediate film 11 includes a first surface layer 1, an intermediate layer 3, and a second surface layer 2. The intermediate film 11 has a three-layer structure. The intermediate layer 3 is disposed and laminated on the first surface 1a of the first surface layer 1. The intermediate layer 3 is disposed and laminated on the first surface 2a of the second surface layer 2. The first surface layer 1 and the second surface layer 2 are each the first layer. The second layer, which is the intermediate layer 3, is disposed on the first surface side of the first layer, which is the surface layer. The intermediate layer 3 is disposed and sandwiched between the first surface layer 1 and the second surface layer 2. Therefore, the intermediate film 11 has a multilayer structure (first layer / second layer / first layer) formed by laminating the first layer, the second layer, and the first layer in this order. In this case, the two first layers can be distinguished and referred to as the first layer A and the first layer B.

A functional film, which is a light control film in the present embodiment, is disposed and sandwiched between the second intermediate layer 4B and the third intermediate layer 5B. Therefore, the intermediate film 11B has a multilayer structure (first layer / second layer / functional film / third layer / first layer) formed by laminating the first layer, the second layer, the functional film, the third layer, and the first layer in this order. In this case, the two first layers can be distinguished and referred to as the first layer A and the first layer B.
[0073] The glass transition temperature of the first layer or the surface layer is preferably 20°C or higher, more preferably 25°C or higher, further preferably 30°C or higher, preferably 45°C or lower, more preferably 40°C or lower, and further preferably 35°C or lower. When the glass transition temperature of the first layer or the surface layer is above the lower limit and below the upper limit, the effects of the present invention can be further effectively exerted. In addition, when the glass transition temperature of the first layer or the surface layer is below the upper limit, the penetration resistance of the laminated glass can be further improved.
[0074] The softening point of the first layer or the surface layer is preferably 45°C or higher, more preferably 50°C or higher, preferably 70°C or lower, and more preferably 65°C or lower. When the softening point of the first layer or the surface layer is above the lower limit and below the upper limit, the effects of the present invention can be further effectively exerted. In addition, when the softening point of the first layer or the surface layer is below the upper limit, the penetration resistance of the laminated glass can be further improved.
[0075] The glass transition temperature and the softening point can be obtained by viscoelasticity measurement. The viscoelasticity measurement is specifically carried out in the following manner.
[0076] The test piece was stored for 12 hours in an environment of 23 ± 2°C at room temperature and 25 ± 5% humidity. Then, using a viscoelasticity measuring device "ARES-G2" manufactured by TA INSTRUMENTS, the viscoelasticity was measured. A parallel plate with a diameter of 8 mm was used as the fixture, and the measurement was carried out in shear mode under the conditions of a temperature decrease rate of 3°C / minute from 100°C to -20°C and conditions of a frequency of 1 Hz and a strain of 1%. In the obtained measurement results, the peak temperature of the loss tangent was set as the glass transition temperature Tg (°C). The temperature at which the value of the loss tangent becomes the minimum in the temperature region between Tg (°C) and 100°C was set as the softening point.
[0077] The viscoelasticity can be measured using the intermediate film itself. In this case, the peak of tanδ derived from the first layer can be read according to the measurement results. For an intermediate film having a structure of two or more layers, the layers can be peeled off from each other, and the glass transition temperature of the layer to be measured can be measured. In addition, in the case of laminated glass, after cooling the laminated glass with liquid nitrogen or the like, the laminated glass component can be peeled off from the intermediate film, and the viscoelasticity can be measured using the peeled intermediate film.

[0248] The obtained first layer (intermediate film) was cut into a diameter of 8 mm to obtain test samples. Using the obtained test samples, a compression creep test was carried out by the above method. It should be noted that the thickness of the first layer (intermediate film) was 0.8 mm, and the test samples thus obtained belonged to test samples A, B, and C. In addition, the thickness of the test samples after the compression creep test was less than the thickness of the test samples before the compression creep test.

The obtained laminate was placed in a rubber bag and degassed at a vacuum degree of 2660 Pa (20 torr) for 20 minutes. Subsequently, in the degassed state, the laminate was heated at a heating rate of 4 °C / min to 90 °C, held at 90 °C for 5 minutes, and then cooled to 30 °C. Then, the normal pressure was restored. Thus, laminated glass was obtained.
[0251] For the obtained laminated glass, an iron ball with a diameter of 82 mm and a weight of 2260 g was dropped from a height of 4 m at a position 150 mm inward from the end of the laminated glass.
