Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a hot melt adhesive for vinyl chloride substrates. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventionally, as adhesives used in adhesive products having an adhesive layer on at least a portion of the surface of a base layer, such as adhesive sheets, adhesive films, and adhesive tapes, solvent-type adhesives made of a base polymer, such as a rubber-based adhesive or an acrylic-based adhesive, have been widely used.
[0003] On the other hand, particularly in recent years, there has been a growing trend to eliminate solvents from the standpoints of complying with environmental regulations, disaster prevention, preventing adverse effects on the human body, etc., and hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesives have been proposed. Among these, olefin resin-based hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesives have attracted attention in terms of heat resistance and durability. Prior Art Document 1 discloses a hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesive composition containing an amorphous polyolefin containing 20% by mass or more of a propylene component and a specific amount of a tackifier resin.
[0004] Applications of hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesives include interior pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets such as wallpaper and flooring materials. For such interior pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets, vinyl chloride substrates are often used because of their low cost and high durability. Since vinyl chloride substrates contain a large amount of plasticizer and are prone to deformation at high temperatures, hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesives for vinyl chloride substrates are required to have plasticizer resistance and low temperature sealing properties. Prior Art Document 2 discloses a hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesive composition having excellent adhesion to PVC substrates.
[0005] When the hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions described in Prior Documents 1 and 2 are used for vinyl chloride substrates, there is still room for improvement in low temperature heat sealability, holding power, coatability, plasticizer resistance, reheat peelability, etc. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0007] An object of the present invention is to provide a hot melt adhesive for vinyl chloride substrates that has excellent low-temperature heat sealability, holding power, coatability, plasticizer resistance and reheat peelability. [Means for solving the problem]

Effect of the Invention
[0009] INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention makes it possible to provide a hot melt adhesive for vinyl chloride substrates that has excellent low-temperature heat sealability, holding power, coatability, plasticizer resistance and reheat peelability. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0010] In this specification, any numerical range specified using "to" is intended to include the numerical values before and after "to" as the lower and upper limit values of the range. In this specification, the polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resin (A) polymerized with a metallocene catalyst may be abbreviated as "polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resin (A)" or "copolymer resin (A)".
[0011] In this specification, the softening point of the copolymer resin (A) is a value measured in accordance with JIS K6863:1994 "Testing method for softening point of hot melt adhesives".
[0012] As described in the "Effects of the Invention" section, the hot melt adhesive of the present invention is excellent in all of the following performances: low-temperature heat sealability, holding power, coatability, plasticizer resistance, and reheat peelability. General hot melt adhesive products have been on the market for a long time, and although there are some that satisfy each individual performance, it is difficult to satisfy all of these performances at the same time. For example, if a soft composition is used to provide heat sealability at low temperatures, the holding power evaluated in a high-temperature environment such as 50°C will decrease. Conversely, if holding power is prioritized, low-temperature heat sealability will deteriorate. In addition, low-temperature heat sealability and reheat peelability are similar but different performances, and those that have low-temperature heat sealability do not necessarily have reheat peelability. Low-temperature heat sealability refers to the performance of having adhesive strength even at a low heat seal temperature such as 80 to 120°C, and reheat peelability refers to the performance (easy dismantling) of being able to peel the substrate from the adherend even when heated to a general temperature (approximately 120 to 180°C) that melts the hot melt adhesive and allowed to cool for 60 seconds. For example, if a soft composition is used with priority given to low-temperature heat sealability, there are cases where the film re-adheres after cooling during reheat peeling and cannot be peeled off, making it difficult to achieve both.
[0013] However, as a result of extensive research, the inventors have discovered the surprising effect of being able to satisfy all of the above-mentioned performance requirements by using a polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resin (A) polymerized with a metallocene catalyst and having a specific structure and a specific softening point, and a tackifier (B).
[0014] <Hot melt adhesive> The hot melt adhesive of the present invention contains a polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resin (A) and a tackifier (B). It is preferable that the hot melt adhesive further contains an antioxidant (C) and a flame retardant (D). The viscosity of the hot melt adhesive is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the viscosity at 160° C. is 500 to 15,000 mPa·s. When the viscosity is in this range, the coating property becomes good. A viscosity of 1,000 to 10,000 mPa·s is more preferable.
[0015] <Polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resin (A)> The polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resin (A) contained in the hot melt adhesive of the present invention is a copolymer resin of polypropylene and polyethylene polymerized with a metallocene catalyst, the main component of the monomer constituting the copolymer resin (A) is propylene, and the softening point is 85° C. to 115° C. By having a softening point of 85 to 115° C., both low-temperature heat sealability and holding power can be achieved. A softening point of 85 to 100° C. is more preferable. It is known that resins polymerized with metallocene catalysts have a much narrower molecular weight distribution than resins polymerized with other catalysts. A narrow molecular weight distribution means that the molecular weight is uniform, and such resins have a low possibility of producing low molecular weight substances that cause a decrease in cohesive strength, resulting in good retention. Copolymer resin (A) is composed of polypropylene and polyethylene, which gives it optimal flexibility and softening point, allowing it to achieve both low-temperature heat sealability and holding power. When the amount of polypropylene constituting the copolymer resin (A) is greater than the amount of polyethylene, the density becomes low and the crystallinity decreases, so that the solidification time becomes long and reheat peeling becomes good.
[0016] The viscosity of the polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resin (A) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1500 to 10000 mPa·s at 170° C. When the viscosity is in this range, both coatability and holding power can be achieved. A viscosity of 2000 to 7000 mPa·s is more preferable.
[0017] The density of the polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resin (A) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.85 to 0.90 g / cm. 2 A density in this range makes it possible to achieve both reheat peeling and retention. 2 is more preferred.
[0018] The copolymer resin (A) is preferably contained in an amount of 30 to 90 mass% out of a total of 100 mass% of the copolymer resin (A) and the tackifier (B). By containing the copolymer resin (A) in an amount of 30 to 90 mass%, both coatability and holding power can be achieved. A content of 40 to 80 mass% is more preferable.
[0019] Specific examples of polypropylene / polyethylene copolymer resins (A) in which the main component of the monomer constituting the copolymer resin is propylene include Ricosene PP1502 (metallocene catalyst polymerization, softening point 86°C), Ricosene PP1602 (metallocene catalyst polymerization, softening point 88°C), Ricosene PP2502 (metallocene catalyst polymerization, softening point 103°C), Ricosene PP2602 (metallocene catalyst polymerization, softening point 98°C), Ricosene PP3602 (metallocene catalyst polymerization, softening point 111°C), and the like, all of which are manufactured by Clariant. These can be used alone or in combination.

Hydrogenated petroleum resins are preferred from the viewpoint of compatibility with the copolymer resin (A). The softening point of the tackifier (B) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 70 to 150° C. When the softening point is in this range, both coatability and holding power can be achieved. 75 to 140° C. is more preferable.
[0021] The tackifier (B) is preferably contained in an amount of 10 to 70% by mass out of a total of 100% by mass of the copolymer resin (A) and the tackifier (B). By containing the tackifier (B) in an amount of 10 to 70% by mass, both low-temperature heat sealing and holding power can be achieved. A content of 20 to 60% by mass is more preferable.
[0022] <Antioxidants (C)> The antioxidant (C) includes a radical scavenger and a peroxide decomposer. The radical scavengers include phenolic compounds, and the peroxide decomposers include phosphorus compounds.

[0036] <Measurement of viscosity of copolymer resin> The viscosity of the copolymer resin (A) at 170°C was measured according to JIS K 6862 (Method A). 300 g of the copolymer (A) melted in advance at 180°C in a heating bath was placed in a test vessel, and when the temperature reached 170°C while thoroughly stirring with a rod thermometer in the air, the viscosity was measured using a B-type viscometer (Tokimec Viscometer Model: BM, manufactured by Tokimec Sangyo Co., Ltd.). An appropriate rotor was used depending on the sample. In addition, since it is not possible to measure the viscosity of copolymer resins that are difficult to stir with a rod thermometer, the viscosity of copolymer resins that are difficult to stir with a rod thermometer was determined to be 20,000 mPa s or more, which is the upper limit of the viscosity that can be stirred with a rod thermometer.
