Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of decorative film sheets for vehicle interior surfaces, and in particular to a multilayer film with surface tactile sensation and a preparation method and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the development of society, household appliances, automobiles, mobile phones and other components have adopted a large number of plastic parts. The surface of plastic parts is decorated with molded films with surface tactile effects, which can show a high-quality decorative effect and meet the needs of high-end automobile decoration, especially the needs of automobile interior parts with highly stretched three-dimensional structures.

[0003] At present, the preparation method of multilayer films with surface touch is to emboss the surface of acrylic resin (PMMA) film, or to print a touch coating on the surface of PMMA layer, or to print the touch coating after pattern printing, so that the composite multilayer film has the effect of surface touch. However, due to the physical properties of PMMA, such as brittleness, low tensile strength, low hardness and poor high temperature stability, the touch effect film obtained by embossing on PMMA is difficult to meet the needs of automotive interior parts with highly stretched three-dimensional structure. The method of printing the touch layer on the surface of PMMA layer also has the above problems. In addition, during the injection molding process, the touch layer will show the problem of peeling off and reduced touch under the injection molding pressure. Even if the touch coating is printed after the pattern layer is printed on the PMMA surface, the touch coating on the inside will cause the surface of the multilayer film to be uneven in the subsequent composite process with ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer) base film, and problems such as blistering and unreal composite will occur during the composite process. Although increasing the composite pressure can reduce composite defects, it will also cause loss of touch.

[0004] Patents CN115320193A and CN218876535U print two tactile support layers after printing the pattern layer on the ABS base film. However, the tactile texture layer and the ink pattern film still need to be compounded through the adhesive layer, and there are still problems such as blistering and unreal compounding. In addition, the manufacturing cost is high, the process is complicated, and the production efficiency is low. In the subsequent processing, there is still the effect of reduced tactile sensation caused by injection molding pressure. Therefore, it is still necessary to improve the materials and manufacturing process to develop a new decorative film with surface tactile effect, which has the characteristics of high processing efficiency, good tactile effect, and continuous roll-to-roll production while ensuring that the existing injection molding process remains unchanged and the cost is controllable. Summary of the invention

[0005] In response to the above problems, the present invention provides a multilayer film with surface touch, and a preparation method and a use method thereof. By adjusting the structure of the multilayer film, the manufacturing cost is greatly reduced, and the tactile effect is excellent. It can be used for surface decoration with strong tactile effects such as high-stretch complex three-dimensional structure automobile interiors.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution provided by the present invention is: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a multilayer film with a surface touch, comprising an ABS base film and a background layer, a pattern texture layer, a tactile texture layer, and a surface protection film sequentially formed on the ABS base film; the raw material components of the tactile texture layer include a two-component coating material, and the two-component coating material includes a main agent and a hardener.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the multilayer film with surface touch provided by the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the multilayer film) adopts ABS as the base film, which has higher toughness, tensile resistance and thermal stability. The ABS base film is at the bottom layer of the multilayer film, which can better adapt to the subsequent embossing treatment and molding injection molding process, avoid the pattern texture layer and the touch texture layer from directly contacting the molten plastic workpiece, so that the multilayer film can be better molded into a finished workpiece with the molten plastic workpiece; the background layer provides an excellent base and lining color for the printing of the pattern texture layer, ensuring that the pattern texture layer can be uniformly and consistently transferred during printing, so that the color texture of the pattern texture layer is more obvious, the contrast is stronger, and it also plays a role in covering the injection molded workpiece; the pattern texture layer plays a role in decoration and beauty, and at the same time has a covering effect on the injection molded workpiece below; the touch texture layer makes the surface of the multilayer film have a strong real touch effect; the surface protection film is used to protect the touch texture layer. The present invention adopts a touch texture layer of a specific material, so that the touch loss of the multilayer film in the subsequent molding and injection molding process is lower, and the touch effect is easier to maintain.

[0008] Preferably, the thickness of the ABS base film is 250 μm to 500 μm.

[0009] Preferably, the raw material components of the background layer include polymethacrylic resin and polyurethane resin.

[0010] Preferably, the mass ratio of the polymethacrylic resin to the polyurethane resin is 10:(2-8).

[0011] Preferably, the background layer has a thickness of 3 μm to 12 μm.

[0012] The present invention has found through a large number of experiments that when the thickness of the background layer is less than 3 μm, the background layer cannot provide a good base and background color for the pattern texture layer; when the thickness is greater than 12 μm, the cost becomes high, and the amount of solvent in the background layer increases, which is easy to cause delamination and breakage in the subsequent processing process, affecting the service life of the multilayer film.

[0013] Preferably, the raw material components of the pattern texture layer include polymethacrylic resin, polyurethane resin and pigment.

[0014] Preferably, the mass ratio of the polymethacrylic resin, the polyurethane resin and the pigment is 10:(2-8):(0.9-3.6).

[0015] Preferably, the thickness of the pattern texture layer is 1 μm to 5 μm, more preferably 3 μm to 5 μm.

[0016] The present invention has found through a large number of experiments that when the thickness of the pattern texture layer is less than 1 μm, the pattern coverage will be low, and the thin coating will be easily damaged by impurities during printing, thereby affecting the printing effect of the pattern texture layer and the presentation of the pattern texture of the entire product; when the thickness is greater than 5 μm, the cost will become higher, and the residual solvent in the pattern ink will increase, which will easily cause the ink layer to break during subsequent processing, affecting the service life of the multilayer film.

[0017] Preferably, the mass ratio of the main agent to the hardener is 100:(3.8~4.2).

[0018] Preferably, the main agent includes at least one of polyester polyurethane or acrylic polyurethane.

[0022] The present invention has found through a large number of experiments that when the thickness of the tactile texture layer is less than 60μm, the tactile sensation will be partially lost during the subsequent lamination (the process of forming a surface protection film) and molding (including high temperature and high pressure molding and injection molding), resulting in a weak tactile sensation and difficulty in meeting customer requirements; when the thickness is greater than 125μm, the cost becomes high, and it is easy to cause adjacent pattern texture layers and surface protection films to be squeezed and damage the multi-layer film structure. At the same time, breakage or delamination between coatings is prone to occur during the processing process, leading to problems such as cracking of the multi-layer film.

[0023] Preferably, the texture depth of the tactile texture layer is 30 μm to 60 μm.

[0024] Preferably, the thickness of the surface protection film is 30 μm to 60 μm.

[0025] The present invention has found through a large number of experiments that when the thickness of the surface protection film is less than 30 μm, the protection of the tactile texture layer is insufficient, and the surface protection film is easily damaged, causing the tactile texture layer to be damaged and contaminated; when the thickness is greater than 60 μm, the cost is high, and the temperature and pressure required for subsequent molding of the multilayer film also become larger, resulting in energy waste.

[0026] Preferably, the surface protection film is made of polyethylene.

[0037] Further preferably, in S2, the solid content of the diluent main agent is 30% to 45%, and the viscosity is 60 mPa‧s to 200 mPa‧s.

[0038] The present invention processes the two-component coating material through the above steps, which can further ensure that cracking, deformation, delamination and blistering will not occur during the coating, pre-drying, drying and curing process and the subsequent injection molding process.
