[0044] <Radio wave transmitting member>
[0045] The radio wave transmitting member disclosed in the present invention comprises an outer layer, an intermediate layer and an inner layer in this order.
[0046] The radio wave transmitting member has a region in which the thicknesses X of the outer layer and the inner layer in the radio wave transmitting direction satisfy the following equations (1) and (2), respectively.
[0047] Formula (1) Z-0.3mm≤X≤Z+0.3mm
[0048] Formula (2) Z=λ÷√ε r ×0.5×Y
[0049] In the formula, λ is the wavelength of the above radio wave in vacuum, ε r is the relative dielectric constant of each layer at the frequency of the above-mentioned radio wave, and Y is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0050] The radio wave transmitting component disclosed in the present invention has a structure in which an outer layer, an intermediate layer and an inner layer are stacked in sequence for reasons of ensuring strength and molding process. Therefore, if the materials of the layers are different, radio waves will be reflected at the boundaries of the layers, and the attenuation of radio waves passing through the radio wave transmitting component may increase.
[0051] In the radio wave transmitting member of the present disclosure, the attenuation of radio waves transmitted through the radio wave transmitting member is effectively suppressed by designing the outer layer and the inner layer to have regions where the thickness X satisfies equations (1) and (2), respectively.
[0052] Furthermore, by designing the thickness X of the outer layer and the inner layer to satisfy the formula (1) and the formula (2), even if the thickness X of the intermediate layer is not designed to satisfy the formula (1) and the formula (2), the attenuation of the radio wave can be effectively suppressed. Therefore, for example, by making the thickness of the intermediate layer thinner, the transmittance of the radio wave can be further improved.
[0053] Figure 1 This is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of the structure of a radio wave transmitting member.
[0054] Figure 1The radio wave transmitting member 10 shown includes an outer layer 1, an intermediate layer 2, and an inner layer 3 in this order, and transmits radio waves irradiated from a device (not shown) for irradiating radio waves, and transmits radio waves reflected from an object.
[0055] The outer layer 1 is disposed on the opposite side from the device that irradiates the radio waves to the radio wave transmitting member 10. The inner layer 3 is disposed on the side opposite to the device that irradiates the radio waves to the radio wave transmitting member.
[0056] The frequency of the radio wave transmitted through the radio wave transmitting member is not particularly limited. For example, the wavelength in a vacuum may be in the range of 20 GHz to 300 GHz (so-called millimeter wave).
[0057] When the radio wave transmitting member is used in an automatic collision avoidance system of an automobile, radio waves generally used in the automatic collision avoidance system include radio waves with a frequency of 24 GHz to 79 GHz, such as radio waves with a frequency of 24 GHz, 77 GHz, and 79 GHz. The wavelengths of these radio waves in a vacuum are 12.49135 mm (24 GHz), 3.893409 mm (77 GHz), and 3.794841 mm (79 GHz).
[0058] In the formula, Y is not particularly limited as long as it is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and can be set according to the desired shape and strength of the radio wave transmitting member.
[0059] From the viewpoint of more effectively suppressing the attenuation of radio waves passing through the radio wave transmitting component, the smaller the difference between the thickness X and Z of the outer layer and the inner layer in the radio wave transmitting direction, the better. That is, the thickness X of the outer layer and the inner layer in the radio wave transmitting direction preferably satisfies the following formula (1'), and more preferably satisfies the following formula (1").
[0060] Formula (1'): Z-0.2mm≤X≤Z+0.2mm
[0061] Formula (1”): Z-0.1mm≤X2≤Z+0.1mm
[0062] In the region where the thickness X of the outer layer and the inner layer respectively satisfy the equation (1) and the equation (2), the thickness X of the intermediate layer may or may not satisfy the equation (1) and the equation (2).
[0063] When the frequency of the radio wave transmitted through the radio wave transmitting member is 77 GHz and the wavelength in vacuum is 3.893409 mm, the value of Z (Y = 1 to 13, unit: mm) when the relative dielectric constant at 77 GHz is 2.574 and the value of Z (Y = 1 to 13, unit: mm) when the relative dielectric constant at 77 GHz is 1.0 (i.e., air) are shown in Table 1. The values in the table are values rounded off to the third decimal place.
[0064] [Table 1]
[0065]
[0066] From the viewpoint of obtaining a sufficient radio wave attenuation suppression effect, the ratio of the area of the regions where the thickness X of the outer layer and the inner layer respectively satisfies the equations (1) and (2) to the overall area of the radio wave transmitting component is preferably greater than or equal to 50%, more preferably greater than or equal to 60%, and further preferably greater than or equal to 70%.
[0067] The above ratio is a value based on the area of the radio wave transmitting member when the radio wave transmitting member is viewed from the outer layer side.
[0068] From the viewpoint of the balance between strength and radio wave transmittance, the outer layer and the inner layer are each preferably a layer containing a resin.
[0069] From the viewpoint of radio wave transmittance, the intermediate layer is preferably an air layer or a layer containing a resin, and more preferably an air layer.
[0070] When the outer layer, the inner layer or the intermediate layer is a layer containing a resin, the relative dielectric constant of the resin may be independently 2.0 to 3.3, 2.3 to 2.9, or 2.5 to 2.8.
[0071] Examples of the resin that may be contained in the outer layer, the intermediate layer, or the inner layer include thermosetting resins, thermoplastic resins, and synthetic rubbers.
[0072] Examples of the thermoplastic resin include polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, vinyl polymers, polyesters, polyamides, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer resins (ABS resins), (meth)acrylic resins, acrylonitrile-ethylene-propylene-diene-styrene copolymer resins (AES resins), and thermoplastic elastomers.

[0075] Among the above resins, PC, PP, ABS resin, (meth)acrylic resin and AES resin are preferred, and PC, PP and ABS resin are more preferred.
[0076] When the outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer is a layer containing a resin, the outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer may contain only the resin, or may contain the resin and a component other than the resin.
[0077] As components other than the resin, inorganic particles, a colorant, an antistatic agent, light diffusion particles described later, and the like are mentioned.
[0078] When the outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer contains a resin and a component other than the resin, the content of the resin contained in the outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer is preferably greater than or equal to 60% by mass, more preferably greater than or equal to 70% by mass, further preferably greater than or equal to 80% by mass, and particularly preferably greater than or equal to 90% by mass. The upper limit of the content of the resin is not particularly limited as long as it is less than 100% by mass.
[0079] The outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer may also have a light diffusion function.
[0080] If the outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer has a light diffusion function, the radio wave transmitting member can be irradiated with light to make the radio wave transmitting member emit light. Thus, various expressions using light can be realized.
[0081] Examples of a method for imparting a light diffusion function to the outer layer, the intermediate layer, or the inner layer include a method of incorporating light diffusion particles and a method of forming irregularities on the surface.
[0082] The outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer having a light diffusion function may have the light diffusion function entirely or partially.
[0083] Among the above methods, the method containing light diffusion particles is preferred from the viewpoint of productivity.
[0084] Examples of the light-diffusing particles include acrylic resin particles, silicone resin particles, titanium oxide particles, silicon dioxide particles, zirconium oxide particles, zinc oxide particles, and aluminum oxide particles.
[0085] The light diffusion particles may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0086] When the outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer contains light diffusion particles, the content of the light diffusion particles is not particularly limited. For example, the content of the light diffusion particles may be 0.3% to 10% by mass of the entire outer layer, the middle layer or the inner layer.
[0087] The thickness of each of the outer layer, the intermediate layer and the inner layer is not particularly limited as long as the thickness of the outer layer and the inner layer respectively satisfy the conditions of formula (1) and formula (2), and can be set according to the purpose of the radio wave transmitting member, etc.
[0088] The thickness of the outer layer may be 1.0 mm to 15.0 mm, 1.5 mm to 12.0 mm, or 2.0 mm to 10.0 mm.
[0089] The thickness of the intermediate layer may be 0.1 mm to 6.0 mm, 0.3 mm to 4.0 mm, or 0.5 mm to 2.0 mm.
[0090] The thickness of the inner layer may be 1.0 mm to 15.0 mm, 1.5 mm to 12.0 mm, or 2.0 mm to 10.0 mm.
[0091] The above thickness is the thickness in the region where the thickness X of the outer layer and the inner layer respectively satisfies the condition of the formula (1).
[0092] In the present disclosure, the thickness of the radio wave transmitting member and each layer constituting the radio wave transmitting member can be measured by a known method, for example, by observing the cross section of the radio wave transmitting member or by using a microtome or the like.
[0093] The radio wave transmitting member may include a metal layer that can transmit radio waves. By providing the radio wave transmitting member with the metal layer that can transmit radio waves, a metallic luster can be imparted to the radio wave transmitting member.
[0094] When the radio wave transmitting member includes a metal layer that can transmit radio waves, the metal layer that can transmit radio waves is preferably provided between the outer layer and the middle layer or between the inner layer and the middle layer.
[0095] As the metal layer capable of transmitting radio waves, a film containing metal particles can be mentioned. When the metal particles are in a state of containing metal particles, radio waves can transmit through gaps between the metal particles.
[0096] The metal layer may be a metal layer containing silver particles. The metal layer containing silver particles may be formed by, for example, a silver mirror reaction.
[0097] As a method for forming a metal layer by a silver mirror reaction, there is a method of bringing an aqueous ammoniacal silver nitrate solution into contact with an aqueous reducing agent solution on a substrate, thereby causing a redox reaction to precipitate silver particles, thereby forming a metal layer containing silver particles on the substrate.
[0098] When a metal layer is provided between the outer layer and the intermediate layer by the above method, the member forming the outer layer can be used as the base material, and when a metal layer is provided between the inner layer and the intermediate layer, the member forming the inner layer can be used as the base material.
[0099] From the viewpoint of radio wave transmittance, the thickness of the metal layer is more preferably 1000 nm or less, more preferably 500 nm or less, and further preferably 100 nm or less.
[0100] From the viewpoint of imparting sufficient metallic luster to the radio wave transmitting member, the thickness of the metal layer is preferably 10 nm or more.
[0101] When a metal layer is provided between the outer layer and the intermediate layer or between the inner layer and the intermediate layer, a primer layer may be provided between the outer layer or the inner layer and the metal layer in order to improve the adhesion between the outer layer or the inner layer and the metal layer.
[0102] Alternatively, in order to protect the surface of the metal layer, a protective layer may be provided on the metal layer.
[0103] Examples of the primer layer or the protective layer include layers containing resins, and examples of the resins include fluororesins, polyester resins, epoxy resins, melamine resins, silicone resins, acrylic silicone resins, acrylic urethane resins, and the like.
[0104] The thickness of the primer layer or the protective layer is preferably 1 μm to 50 μm. If the thickness of the primer layer or the protective layer is 1 μm to 50 μm, the radio wave attenuation suppression effect produced by controlling the thickness of the outer layer, the intermediate layer, and the inner layer can be fully obtained.
[0105] The type of radio waves transmitted through the radio wave transmitting member is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, millimeter waves. In the present disclosure, "millimeter waves" refer to radio waves with a frequency of 20 GHz to 300 GHz. The radio wave transmitting member of the present disclosure is particularly useful for reducing the transmission attenuation of millimeter waves.
