Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a one-part curable composition. [Background technology]

[0002] Polymer molecules having alkoxysilyl groups form siloxane bonds with other polymer molecules as a result of hydrolysis of the alkoxysilyl groups. This crosslinking reaction produces a rubber-like cured product. Curable compositions containing such polymer molecules are used in sealing materials, adhesives, paints, etc. (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0008] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail, but the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

[0009] Unless otherwise specified in this specification, "A to B" representing a numerical range means "A or more and B or less." In this specification, "(meth)acrylic" means "acrylic and / or methacrylic."

[0010] [1. Curable composition] The one-part curable composition according to one embodiment of the present invention contains (A) an alkoxysilyl group-containing (meth)acrylic copolymer, (B) a compound having an amino group and a moiety in which 6 or more carbon atoms are linked, and (C) a curing catalyst. The one-part curable composition may contain (D) a phosphoric acid ester and / or (E) a polyoxyalkylene polymer having a silyl group as an optional component. Each component contained in the one-part curable composition will be described in detail below.

[0011] [1.1. (A) (Meth)acrylic copolymer] [1.1.1. Structure of (meth)acrylic copolymer] The (meth)acrylic copolymer has an X block and a Y block, and contains an XY diblock structure or an XYX triblock structure in the molecule. The structure of the entire molecule of the (meth)acrylic copolymer is not particularly limited as long as it contains an XY diblock structure or an XYX triblock structure, and may be, for example, an XYXY tetrablock structure.

[0012] Here, the term "XYX triblock structure" refers to what is generally known by those skilled in the art as an "ABA triblock structure." The ratio of X / Y in the (meth)acrylic copolymer is preferably from (5 / 95) to (60 / 40), more preferably from (15 / 85) to (40 / 60).

[0013] In one embodiment, the (meth)acrylic copolymer molecule has an XY diblock structure. In the molecule of the XY diblock structure, the X block can be a region of 40% or less, 30% or less, or 25% or less from one end of the molecule (all repeating units contained in the molecule are taken as 100%). Here, the X block is the block on the side where alkoxysilyl groups are distributed in a relatively large amount.

[0014] In one embodiment, the (meth)acrylic copolymer molecule has an XYX triblock structure. In the XYX triblock structure molecule, the X block can be 40% or less, 30% or less, or 25% or less of the region from the end of the molecule (all repeating units contained in the molecule are taken as 100%). Here, the X block is a block located at both ends of the molecule.

[0015] The (meth)acrylic copolymer has a repeating unit derived from a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group. The repeating unit derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group is contained relatively in large amounts in the X block. The repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the X block are more than 2.0 on average per molecule of the (meth)acrylic copolymer. When the (meth)acrylic copolymer has two or more X blocks in one molecule, the total number of repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the multiple X blocks is more than 2.0 on average. On the other hand, the repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the Y block are 0% by weight or more and less than 5% by weight based on the weight of all repeating units contained in the Y block.

[0016] The repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the X block are on average more than 2.0 per molecule of the (meth)acrylic copolymer, preferably 2.1 or more, more preferably 2.2 or more, even more preferably 2.3 or more, and particularly preferably 2.5 or more. Similarly, the repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the X block are preferably 0.5% by weight or more, more preferably 2.0% by weight or more, and even more preferably 3.0% by weight or more based on the weight of all repeating units contained in the X block.

[0017] The upper limit of the repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the X block is preferably 90% by weight or less, more preferably 60% by weight or less, and even more preferably 30% by weight or less. The upper limit of the repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the Y block is less than 5% by weight, preferably 4% by weight or less, more preferably 3% by weight or less, even more preferably 2% by weight or less, and particularly preferably 1% by weight or less, based on the weight of all repeating units contained in the Y block. The lower limit of the repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the Y block is preferably 0% by weight or more, and more preferably more than 0% by weight, based on the weight of all repeating units contained in the Y block.

[0018] Specific examples of (meth)acrylic acid ester monomers having an alkoxysilyl group include 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldiethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane, and 3-acryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane.

[0019] The (meth)acrylic copolymer may contain a repeating unit derived from a (meth)acrylic monomer having a long side chain. In this specification, the "(meth)acrylic monomer having a long side chain" refers to a repeating unit derived from a (meth)acrylic monomer having a long side chain, represented by the formula: R 1 CH=CHCOOR 2 In the formula, R 1 R is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 2 is a group having 9 or more carbon atoms.

[0020] The content of the repeating unit derived from the (meth)acrylic monomer having a long side chain is preferably 1% by weight or more of the total constitutional units contained in the (meth)acrylic copolymer. The (meth)acrylic copolymer containing such a repeating unit may have improved compatibility with the polyoxyalkylene polymer, or the physical properties of the resulting cured product may be improved. The upper limit of the content of the repeating unit derived from the (meth)acrylic monomer having a long side chain is preferably 5% by weight or less, more preferably 3% by weight or less, and even more preferably 1% by weight or less. If the content is within the above range, the production cost of the (meth)acrylic copolymer does not rise excessively.

[0021] Examples of (meth)acrylic monomers having a long side chain include nonyl (meth)acrylate, decyl (meth)acrylate, undecyl (meth)acrylate, dodecyl (meth)acrylate, tridecyl (meth)acrylate, tetradecyl (meth)acrylate, pentadecyl (meth)acrylate, hexadecyl (meth)acrylate, heptadecyl (meth)acrylate, octadecyl (meth)acrylate, icosyl (meth)acrylate, docosyl (meth)acrylate, oleyl (meth)acrylate, linoleyl (meth)acrylate, and isobornyl (meth)acrylate.

[0022] Among the above-mentioned monomers, one or more selected from octadecyl (meth)acrylate, oleyl (meth)acrylate, and linoleyl (meth)acrylate are preferred. These monomers have the advantage of being liquid at room temperature and having high polymerization stability. In addition, by blending these monomers, a (meth)acrylic acid copolymer having high compatibility with a polyoxyalkylene polymer can be obtained.

[0023] In this specification, the term "(meth)acrylic monomer having a non-long side chain" refers to a (meth)acrylic monomer having a non-long side chain in the above formula, R 2represents a monomer having 8 or less carbon atoms. Examples of such monomers include methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate, n-propyl (meth)acrylate, n-butyl (meth)acrylate, isobutyl (meth)acrylate, tert-butyl (meth)acrylate, pentyl (meth)acrylate, n-hexyl (meth)acrylate, cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, heptyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate, octyl (meth)acrylate, 2-methoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-butoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, isopropoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, benzyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl (meth)acrylate, glycidyl (meth)acrylate, 1-ethylcyclopentyl ether (meth)acrylate, and dimethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate.

[0024] Among the above-mentioned monomers, one or more selected from methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate, n-butyl (meth)acrylate, and 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate are preferred. These monomers have low procurement costs and are suitable for the purpose of reducing the production costs of the (meth)acrylic copolymer.

[0025] Furthermore, from the viewpoint of glass transition point, one or more selected from n-butyl acrylate and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate are preferred. (Meth)acrylic copolymers obtained from these monomers have low glass transition points and low polymer viscosity. Therefore, a one-part curable composition that is easy to use in low temperature environments can be obtained.

[0026] [1.1.2. Alkoxysilyl groups in (meth)acrylic copolymers] The (meth)acrylic copolymer has an alkoxysilyl group. The alkoxysilyl group of the (meth)acrylic copolymer may be derived from a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group. In one embodiment, the alkoxysilyl group is represented by the following general formula: -[Si(R 4 ) 2-b (Y) b O] m -Si(R 5 ) 3-a (Y) a

[0027] In the formula, R 4 and R 5 are independently an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aryl group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, an aralkyl group having 7 to 20 carbon atoms, a methoxymethyl group, or a triorganosiloxy group represented by (R')3SiO-. R' is a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. The three R's may be the same or different. R 4 or R 5 When two or more are present, they may be the same or different. Y is an alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. When two or more Y are present, they may be the same or different. a is 0, 1, 2 or 3. b is 0, 1 or 2. m is an integer of 0 to 19, provided that the relationship a+mb≧1 is satisfied.

[0028] Generally, the fewer the carbon atoms in an alkoxy group, the higher its reactivity. In other words, the reactivity decreases in the order of methoxy group, ethoxy group, propoxy group, etc. Therefore, an appropriate alkoxy group can be selected depending on the production method and application of component (A).

[0029] The specific structure of the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group is not particularly limited. An example is a monomer represented by the following general formula: H2C=CR 6 C(=O)O-(CH2) m -SiR 7n (OR 8 ) 3-n

[0030] In the formula, R 6 is hydrogen or a methyl group. 7 and R 8 R is at least one selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, a methyl group, and an ethyl group. 7 and / or R 8 When a plurality of are present, they may be the same or different. m is an integer of 0 to 10. n is an integer of 0 to 2.

[0031] Specific examples of the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group include 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldiethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane, and 3-acryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane.

[0032] The number of alkoxysilyl groups introduced into the (meth)acrylic copolymer is more than 2.0 on average, preferably 2.2 or more, more preferably 2.6 or more, even more preferably 3.0 or more, and particularly preferably 3.4 or more, in the whole molecule. The upper limit of the number of alkoxysilyl groups introduced into the (meth)acrylic copolymer is preferably 10.0 or less, more preferably 8.0 or less, even more preferably 6.0 or less, and particularly preferably 5.0 or less. If the number of alkoxysilyl groups is within the above range, a one-liquid curable composition and a cured product with good physical properties can be obtained.

[0033] [1.1.3. Physical properties of (meth)acrylic copolymers] In one embodiment, the lower limit of the number average molecular weight of the (meth)acrylic copolymer is preferably 2,000 or more, more preferably 10,000 or more, and even more preferably 15,000 or more. The upper limit of the number average molecular weight of the (meth)acrylic copolymer is preferably 50,000 or less, more preferably 30,000 or less, and even more preferably 20,000 or less. When the number average molecular weight of the (meth)acrylic copolymer is within the above range, the viscosity of the one-component curable composition does not become too high, and sufficient workability can be ensured.

[0034] In one embodiment, the molecular weight distribution of the (meth)acrylic copolymer is 1.8 or less, preferably 1.5 or less, 1.4 or less, 1.3 or less, or 1.2 or less. If the molecular weight distribution is within the above range, the viscosity of the polymer tends to decrease and the workability tends to improve. The molecular weight distribution is a value given by "weight average molecular weight ÷ number average molecular weight".

[0035] The weight average molecular weight and number average molecular weight are measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). For GPC measurement, chloroform is used as the mobile phase and a polystyrene gel column is used as the stationary phase. The molecular weight obtained by measurement is the molecular weight converted into standard polystyrene.

[0036] [1.1.4. Method for producing (meth)acrylic copolymer] The polymerization method of the (meth)acrylic copolymer is not particularly limited, and known polymerization methods can be used (radical polymerization method, cationic polymerization method, anionic polymerization method, etc.). The polymerization method called SGO (Solid Grade Oligomer; high temperature continuous bulk polymerization) is preferred because it is a method that can obtain a (meth)acrylic copolymer without using a polymerization solvent, a polymerization initiator, a chain transfer agent, etc. A living polymerization method is preferred because it can introduce a functional group near the end of the polymer molecule and can synthesize a (meth)acrylic copolymer with a small molecular weight distribution. Examples of living polymerization methods include living radical polymerization method, living cationic polymerization method, and living anionic polymerization method, and among them, living radical polymerization method is suitable for polymerization of a (meth)acrylic monomer. Examples of living radical polymerization methods include the following. Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP) (see J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1995, 117, 5614; Macromolecules. 1995, 28, 1721) Single Electron Transfer Polymerization (SET-LRP (see J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2006, 128, 14156; JPSChem 2007, 45, 1607)) Reversible Chain Transfer Catalyzed Polymerization (RTCP) (see "Living Radical Polymerization Controlled by Organic Catalysts" Polymer Journal Vol. 68, 223-231 (2011); JP Patent Publication No. 2014-111798) Reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT polymerization) Nitroxy radical method (NMP method) Polymerization using organotellurium compounds (TERP method) · Polymerization method using organoantimony compounds (SBRP method) Polymerization method using organobismuth compounds (BIRP method) -Iodine transfer polymerization method

[0037] An example of a method for introducing a silyl group into a (meth)acrylic copolymer is the method described in JP 2018-162394 A. The method disclosed in the document introduces a silyl group into a (meth)acrylic copolymer by copolymerizing a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer and a silyl group-containing (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer. More specifically, a silyl group is introduced near the end of a (meth)acrylic copolymer molecule by controlling the input amount of a silyl group-containing (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer according to the progress stage of living polymerization. The silyl group-containing (meth)acrylic copolymer obtained by these methods has a silyl group locally at or near the end of the molecule. The effect of achieving both strength and elongation of a one-component curable composition is remarkably exhibited in a (meth)acrylic copolymer into which a silyl group has been introduced by such a method.

[0038] [1.2.(B) Compounds having an amino group and a moiety with six or more carbon atoms attached] The content of (B) the compound having an amino group and a moiety having 6 or more carbon atoms linked thereto is preferably 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, relative to 100 parts by weight of the total amount of (A) the (meth)acrylic copolymer having an alkoxysilyl group and (E) the polyoxyalkylene polymer having a silyl group.

[0039] The portion where 6 or more carbon atoms are linked may have a straight-chain structure, a branched structure, or a ring. The bond between the carbon atoms may be a single bond, a double bond, or a triple bond. This portion may contain a substituent containing a heteroatom (oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, halogen, etc.) as long as the carbon-carbon bond is not broken. The upper limit of the number of carbon atoms contained in this portion is, for example, 30 or less or 20 or less. In one embodiment, the compound consists of only one or more amino groups and a portion where 6 or more carbon atoms are linked. In one embodiment, the compound consists of one or more amino groups and a hydrocarbon group. The hydrocarbon group is a functional group consisting of only carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms.

[0040] In this specification, an amino group is a functional group represented by -NH2. Substituted amino groups in which one or both of two hydrogen atoms are substituted are not included in the amino group in this specification. Therefore, the compound has a structure as a primary amine. The number of amino groups contained in the compound is not particularly limited. Therefore, the compound may be a monoamine or a polyamine (diamine, triamine, tetraamine, etc.). The amino group may be directly bonded to a portion where six or more carbon atoms are linked, or may be bonded to a site other than the portion. In one embodiment, the amino group is directly bonded to a portion where six or more carbon atoms are linked.

[0041] Examples of the compound include aliphatic amines, alicyclic amines, and aromatic amines. More specific examples include monovalent aliphatic primary amines (hexylamine, 2-ethylhexylamine, octylamine, laurylamine, stearylamine, tetradecylamine, pentadecylamine, etc.); monovalent alicyclic primary amines (cyclohexylamine, cycloheptylamine, cyclooctylamine); monovalent aromatic primary amines (aniline, o-toluidine, benzylamine, etc.); polyvalent aliphatic primary amines (ethylenediamine, diethylenediamine, etc.); polyvalent alicyclic primary amines (1,2-cyclohexyldiamine, 1,4-cyclohexyldiamine). The compound may also be a polymer having one or more amino groups.

[0042] [1.3.(C) Curing catalyst] The content of the (C) curing catalyst is preferably 0.1 to 5 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the total amount of the (A) alkoxysilyl group-containing (meth)acrylic copolymer and the (E) silyl group-containing polyoxyalkylene polymer.

[0043] Examples of the curing catalyst include tin-based curing catalysts. Specific examples of the tin-based curing catalyst include dialkyltin carboxylates (dibutyltin dilaurate, dibutyltin diacetate, dibutyltin diethylhexanolate, dibutyltin dioctate, dibutyltin dimethyl maleate, dibutyltin diethyl maleate, dibutyltin dibutyl maleate, dibutyltin diisooctyl maleate, dibutyltin ditridecyl maleate, dibutyltin dibenzyl maleate, dibutyltin maleate, dioctyltin diacetate, dioctyltin distearate, dioctyltin dilaurate, dioctyltin diethyl maleate, dioctyltin diisooctyl maleate, etc.); dialkyltin oxides (dibutyltin oxide, dioctyltin oxide, a mixture of dibutyltin oxide and phthalic acid ester, etc.); tetravalent tin compounds (dialkyltin oxide, di ... Reaction products of tin diacetate, etc.) with low molecular weight silicon compounds having alkoxysilyl groups (tetraethoxysilane, methyltriethoxysilane, diphenyldimethoxysilane, phenyltrimethoxysilane, etc.); divalent tin compounds (tin octylate, tin naphthenate, tin stearate, etc.); monoalkyltin compounds (monobutyltin compounds (monobutyltin tris-octoate, monobutyltin triisopropoxide, etc.), monooctyltin compounds, etc.); chelate compounds (dibutyltin bisacetylacetonate, dioctyltin bisacetylcetonate, dibutyltin bisethylacetonate, dioctyltin bisethylacetonate, etc.); tin alcoholates (dibutyltin dimethylate, dibutyltin diethylate, dioctyltin dimethylate, dioctyltin diethylate, etc.).

[0044] [1.4.(D) Phosphate ester] The incorporation of a phosphoric acid ester improves the storage stability of the one-part curable composition, for example, by decreasing the rate of increase in viscosity of the one-part curable composition after storage.

[0045] The content of (D) the phosphoric acid ester is preferably 0.01 to 10 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the total amount of (A) the (meth)acrylic copolymer having an alkoxysilyl group and (E) the polyoxyalkylene polymer having a silyl group.

[0046] A phosphate ester is a compound represented by O=P(OR)3. Each of the three R's is independently selected from an organic group or a hydrogen atom. The organic group is, for example, a functional group having 1 to 40 or 1 to 20 carbon atoms. A compound in which two R's are hydrogen atoms is called a phosphate monoester, a compound in which one R's is a hydrogen atom is called a phosphate diester, and a compound in which no R's are hydrogen atoms is called a phosphate triester.

[0047] Examples of phosphoric acid monoesters include monomethyl phosphate, monoethyl phosphate, mono-n-propyl phosphate, monoisopropyl phosphate, mono-n-butyl phosphate, mono(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate, monolauryl phosphate, phenyl phosphate, cresyl phosphate, xylenyl phosphate, and benzyl phosphate. Examples of phosphoric acid diesters include dimethyl phosphate, diethyl phosphate, di-n-propyl phosphate, diisopropyl phosphate, di-n-butyl phosphate, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate, dilauryl phosphate, diphenyl phosphate, dicresyl phosphate, dixylenyl phosphate, and dibenzyl phosphate. Examples of phosphoric acid triesters include trimethyl phosphate, triethyl phosphate, tri-n-propyl phosphate, triisopropyl phosphate, tri-n-butyl phosphate, tri(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate, triphenyl phosphate, tricresyl phosphate, trixylenyl phosphate, and tribenzyl phosphate. Among the phosphoric acid esters, phosphoric acid monoesters and phosphoric acid diesters are preferred. This is because these phosphoric acid esters have a suitable balance between acidity and viscosity.

[0048] [1.5. (E) Polyoxyalkylene polymer having silyl group] The lower limit of the content of the polyoxyalkylene polymer having a silyl group (E) is preferably 5 parts by weight or more, more preferably 30 parts by weight or more, and even more preferably 40 parts by weight or more, when the content of the (meth)acrylic copolymer having an alkoxysilyl group (A) is 100 parts by weight. The upper limit of the content of the polyoxyalkylene polymer having a silyl group (E) is preferably 300 parts by weight or less, more preferably 280 parts by weight or less, and even more preferably 250 parts by weight or less, when the content of the (meth)acrylic copolymer having an alkoxysilyl group (A) is 100 parts by weight. If the content ratio of the (meth)acrylic copolymer having an alkoxysilyl group (A) and the polyoxyalkylene polymer having a silyl group (E) is within the above range, a cured product with excellent weather resistance can be obtained. In order to ensure weather resistance for a longer period of time, it is preferable to contain more of the (meth)acrylic copolymer having an alkoxysilyl group (A) than the polyoxyalkylene polymer having a silyl group (E).

[0049] [1.5.1. Main chain of polyoxyalkylene polymer] The molecular structure of the polyoxyalkylene polymer may be linear or branched. It may also be a mixture of molecules having these structures. Among these, the main chain derived from one or more selected from the group consisting of polyoxypropylene diol and polyoxypropylene triol is particularly preferred.

[0050] Examples of the main chain structure of the polyoxyalkylene polymer include a structure represented by the following general formula: 9 is a divalent alkylene group. -R 9 -O-

[0051] The repeating units described above preferably account for 50% by weight or more of the total weight of the polyoxyalkylene polymer, more preferably 70% by weight or more, and even more preferably 90% by weight or more.

[0052] R 9 The structure of R is not particularly limited as long as it is a divalent alkylene group.9 is preferably an alkylene group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms, and more preferably a linear or branched alkylene group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms.

[0053] Specific examples of the repeating unit include -CH2O-, -CH2CH2O-, -CH2CH(CH3)O-, -CH2CH(C2H5)O-, -CH2C(CH3)2O-, and -CH2CH2CH2CH2O-. Among these, it is preferable that the main chain of the polyoxyalkylene polymer is polypropylene oxide consisting of -CH2CH(CH3)O-.

[0054] The main chain structure of the polyoxyalkylene polymer may be a commercially available product. Examples of commercially available polyoxyalkylene polymers include Kaneka MS Polymer (registered trademark) S810, S257, S327 (all Kaneka Corporation); Silyl (registered trademark) SAX220, SAT400, SAX510, SAX520, SAX580, SAX750, SAT145 (all Kaneka Corporation); Exestar (registered trademark) ES-S2410, ES-S2420, ES-S3630 (all AGC Corporation); and HMS-1603, HMS-1207 (all Hua Ma Technology).

[0055] [1.5.2. Silyl group possessed by polyoxyalkylene polymer] The structure of the silyl group contained in the polyoxyalkylene polymer is not particularly limited. The silyl group contained in the polyoxyalkylene polymer may be the alkoxysilyl group contained in the (meth)acrylic copolymer described in Section [1.1.2.].

[0056] In one embodiment, the structure of the silyl group contained in the polyoxyalkylene polymer is represented by the following formula. -Si(R 3 ) 3-a (X) a

[0057] In the formula, one silyl group is R 3When multiple R are included, they may be the same or different. 3 R represents a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. 3 When R is substituted, it may be substituted with a heteroatom-containing group. When multiple silyl groups are present, R 3 may be different for each silyl group. 3 Examples of X include an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aryl group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, and an aralkyl group having 7 to 20 carbon atoms. When one silyl group contains a plurality of Xs, they may be the same or different. X represents a hydroxyl group or a hydrolyzable group. When a plurality of silyl groups are present, X may be different for each silyl group. An example of the hydrolyzable group is an alkoxy group. a is 1, 2, or 3.

[0058] Examples of the silyl group contained in the polyoxyalkylene polymer include a dimethoxysilyl group, a trimethoxysilyl group, a diethoxysilyl group, a triethoxysilyl group, a triisopropoxysilyl group, a dimethoxymethylsilyl group, a diethoxymethylsilyl group, and a diisopropoxymethylsilyl group.

[0059] The number of silyl groups introduced into the polyoxyalkylene polymer is preferably more than 1.2 per molecule, more preferably 1.2 to 4.0, and even more preferably 1.5 to 2.5. When the number of silyl groups is within the above range, good curability can be imparted to the one-component curable composition.

[0060] In addition to the above, it is also possible to use a polyalkylene polymer having only one silyl group at the end. When used in combination with the above polymer, it is possible to replace the plasticizer component. Furthermore, it is possible to use a polyalkylene polymer obtained by the synthesis method described in JP 2021-75722 A.

[0061] The silyl group of the polyoxyalkylene polymer is preferably located at at least one end of the molecule, and more preferably located at both ends of the molecule. If the silyl group is located at the end of the molecule, good elongation can be imparted to the cured product.

[0062] [1.5.3. Other physical properties of polyoxyalkylene polymers] The lower limit of the number average molecular weight of the polyoxyalkylene polymer is not particularly limited, and is preferably 3,000 or more, more preferably 10,000 or more, and even more preferably 20,000 or more. The upper limit of the number average molecular weight of the polyoxyalkylene polymer is preferably 70,000 or less, and more preferably 50,000 or less. By using a high molecular weight polymer having a number average molecular weight of 20,000 or more as the polyoxyalkylene polymer, the elongation of the cured product can be improved.

[0063] The molecular weight distribution of the polyoxyalkylene polymer is preferably 1.6 or less, more preferably 1.5 or less, and further preferably 1.2 or less. If the molecular weight distribution is too large, the viscosity of the one-component curable composition increases, and the workability tends to decrease.

[0064] Such a polyoxyalkylene polymer can be obtained by the method described in

[0011] to

[0058] of JP2021-55010A.

[0065] [1.6. Other ingredients] The one-part curable composition may contain various additives in addition to the above-mentioned components. By adding these additives, various physical properties of the one-part curable composition and the cured product can be adjusted. Examples of additives include the following.

[0066] (Adhesion promoter) The one-part curable composition may contain an adhesion promoter. By adding an adhesion promoter, the risk of the sealant peeling off from the adherend such as a siding board can be reduced (this peeling occurs when the joint width changes due to an external force). In addition, there may be cases where the need to use a primer to improve adhesion is eliminated. In this case, simplification of the construction work is expected.

[0067] An example of an adhesion promoter is a silane coupling agent. Specific examples of silane coupling agents include isocyanate group-containing silanes (γ-isocyanate propyl trimethoxysilane, γ-isocyanate propyl triethoxysilane, γ-isocyanate propyl methyl diethoxysilane, γ-isocyanate propyl methyl dimethoxysilane, etc.); amino group-containing silanes (γ-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyl triethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyl methyl dimethoxysilane, γ-aminopropyl methyl diethoxysilane, N-(β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane, N-(β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyl methyl dimethoxysilane, N-(β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyl triethoxysilane, N-(β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyl methyl diethoxysilane, γ-ureidopropyl trimethoxysilane, N-phenyl-γ-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane, N-benzyl-γ-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane, silane, N-vinylbenzyl-γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, etc.); mercapto group-containing silanes (γ-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane, γ-mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane, γ-mercaptopropylmethyldimethoxysilane, γ-mercaptopropylmethyldiethoxysilane, etc.); carboxysilanes (β-carboxyethyltriethoxysilane, β-carboxyethylphenylbis(2-methoxyethoxy)silane, N-(β-carboxymethyl)aminoethyl-γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, etc.); vinyl-type unsaturated group-containing silanes (vinyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane, γ-methacryloyloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, γ-acroyloxypropylmethyltriethoxysilane, etc.); halogen-containing silanes (γ-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane, etc.); isocyanurate silanes (tris(trimethoxysilyl)isocyanurate, etc.).In addition, derivatives obtained by modifying silane coupling agents, such as amino-modified silyl polymers, silylated amino polymers, unsaturated aminosilane complexes, phenylamino long-chain alkylsilanes, aminosilylated silicones, and silylated polyesters, can also be used as silane coupling agents.

[0081] (light curing substance) The one-liquid curable composition may contain a photocurable substance. A photocurable substance is a substance that undergoes a chemical change in a short time by the action of light, resulting in a change in physical properties (such as curing). By including a photocurable substance, the tackiness (residual tack) of the surface of the cured product can be reduced. A typical photocurable substance can be cured by leaving it at room temperature for one day in a sunny position indoors (such as near a window). Many photocurable substances are known, such as organic monomers, oligomers, resins, and compositions containing these, and the types are not particularly limited.

A one-part curable composition is a composition in which all ingredients are mixed in advance and then sealed and stored. The one-part curable composition is cured by moisture in the air after use. In contrast, a two-part or multi-part curable composition is prepared by separately preparing a base agent containing a silyl group-containing polymer and a curing agent containing a curing catalyst, and mixing the two when used.

Step 1: (A) a (meth)acrylic polymer having an alkoxysilyl group and (B) a compound having an amino group and a moiety having six or more carbon atoms linked thereto are mixed together. Step 2: (C) the curing catalyst is added to the mixture obtained in step 1 and further mixed.

[0098] In this manner, by mixing (A) the (meth)acrylic polymer having an alkoxysilyl group with (B) the compound having an amino group and a moiety in which 6 or more carbon atoms are linked, before mixing with (C) the curing catalyst, the increase in viscosity of the resulting mixture is reduced, and a product that can withstand practical use as a one-component curable composition can be obtained.

When the one-part curable composition contains (D) a phosphoric acid ester, it is preferable to add (B) a compound having an amino group and a moiety where 6 or more carbon atoms are linked, (D) a phosphoric acid ester, and (C) a curing catalyst in this order to the composition and mix them.

[0100] [3. Cured product] A cured product is obtained by curing the one-part curable composition obtained by the above-mentioned manufacturing method. For example, the one-part curable composition can absorb moisture from the surroundings and spontaneously change into a cured product by the above-mentioned manufacturing method. The use of the cured product is not particularly limited. Examples include architectural and industrial sealants, electrical and electronic component materials (such as solar cell back sealants), electrical insulating materials (such as insulating coating materials for wires and cables), pressure sensitive adhesives, adhesives, elastic adhesives, contact adhesives, tile adhesives, paints, coating materials, sealing materials for can lids, etc., potting agents for electrical and electronic use, films, gaskets, casting materials, various molding materials, artificial marble, rust-proofing and waterproofing sealants for cut parts of wired glass or laminated glass, and waterproofing agents.

[0101] In one embodiment, the cured product is in the form of a film. Therefore, the present invention also includes a method for producing a film, which comprises a step of curing the one-part curable composition obtained by the above-mentioned production method. The lower limit of the thickness of the produced film may be 0.1 mm or more, 0.5 mm or more, 1 mm or more, 5 mm or more, or 10 mm or more. The upper limit of the thickness of the produced film may be 100 mm or less, 90 mm or less, 80 mm or less, 70 mm or less, 60 mm or less, or 50 mm or less.

[0102] The film-like cured product can be produced, for example, by applying a one-liquid curable composition to a substrate and then curing it. The film may be used in a state where it is peeled off from the substrate, or in a state where the substrate and the film are integrated. Examples of applications of the film-like cured product include sealing materials, coating agents, and adhesives.

[0112] [Production Example: Synthesis of Silyl Group-Containing (Meth)acrylic Copolymer (A-1)] A silyl group-containing (meth)acrylic copolymer (A-1) was synthesized by the following procedure. This copolymer satisfies the requirements for (A) a (meth)acrylic copolymer having an alkoxysilyl group. [Preparation] 1. A 2000 mL three-neck flask was prepared. 108 g of ethyl acrylate, 707 g of n-butyl acrylate, and 186 g of octadecyl acrylate were charged into the flask and mixed. This mixture is referred to as "(meth)acrylic acid ester monomer mixture." 2. Another stirring vessel was prepared. 52.7 mg of cupric bromide (CuBr2), 54.4 mg of hexamethyltris(2-aminoethyl)amine (Me6TREN) and 1.82 g of methanol were charged into the stirring vessel and stirred under a nitrogen stream until a homogeneous solution was obtained. This homogeneous solution is referred to as the "copper solution." The amount of copper contained in the copper solution was equivalent to 15 ppm relative to the total amount of the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer mixture. 3. Another stirring vessel was prepared. 30.8 mL of methanol, 1.0 g of ascorbic acid, and 1.6 mL of triethylamine were charged into the stirring vessel and stirred under a nitrogen stream to obtain a homogeneous solution. This homogeneous solution is called "ascorbic acid solution." [1st step] 4. 5.60g of ethyl α-bromobutyrate (initiator; 0.029 mol), 20% by weight of the total amount of (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer mixture, 10g of 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane (0.045 mol; 1.5 molar equivalent to the initiator), 107.68g of methanol, and the total amount of copper solution were added to the stirrer, and stirred for 30 minutes under a nitrogen stream to obtain a homogeneous solution. The stirrer used at this time was a stirrer with a jacket temperature control, and the jacket temperature was set to 45°C. 5. When the temperature in the polymerization system reached 40°C or higher, the ascorbic acid solution was continuously dripped to start the polymerization reaction. The dripping rate of the ascorbic acid solution was set to a rate at which 144 mg of ascorbic acid was added to the polymerization system per hour. 6. The temperature in the polymerization system was monitored and it rose as soon as the dropping of ascorbic acid started, reached a maximum temperature, and then gradually decreased. When the temperature difference between the temperature in the polymerization system and the jacket temperature reached 1°C, a small amount of the reaction solution in the polymerization system was sampled and analyzed by gas chromatography. As a result, 90% by weight of the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer mixture initially charged had been consumed. [Second process] 7. The remaining (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer mixture that was not added in the first step (80% by weight of the total amount) was continuously added dropwise to the polymerization system over a period of 90 minutes. The ascorbic acid solution was added dropwise at a rate of 48 mg of ascorbic acid per hour to the polymerization system. Sampling was also carried out sequentially and analyzed by gas chromatography. The polymerization was continued until 88% by weight of the total (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer mixture added to the polymerization system was consumed. [3rd step] 8. 11 g of 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane (0.049 mol; 1.6 molar equivalents relative to the initiator) was added to the polymerization system. The ascorbic acid solution was continuously added dropwise until 98% by weight of the total amount of the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer mixture added to the polymerization system was consumed. Thereafter, the addition of the ascorbic acid solution was stopped to terminate the polymerization. 9. The jacket temperature was changed to 80°C, and the solvent was then volatilized. A diaphragm pump was used first, and then a vacuum pump was used. After volatilization was completed, the jacket temperature was cooled to 60°C or less. [purification] 10. 1000g of butyl acetate was added to a jacket temperature-controlled stirring device and mixed with the polymer after devolatilization until a homogeneous solution was obtained. An adsorbent was added to this homogeneous solution and stirred for 1 hour. As the adsorbent, 10g of Kyoward 500SH (Kyowa Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) and 10g of Kyoward 700SEN-S (Kyowa Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) were used. 11. After the stirring was completed, the mixture was filtered through a filter equipped with a bag filter cloth. This resulted in a clear polymer solution. 1.5 g of an antioxidant (Sumilizer GS; Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.) was added to the solution and mixed until homogenous. Thereafter, the solvent was removed from the solution using a diaphragm pump first and then a vacuum pump. In this way, a (meth)acrylic copolymer (A-1) was obtained.

[0113] The (meth)acrylic copolymer (A-1) was an XYX type block copolymer, with a number average molecular weight of 5,5000, a molecular weight distribution of 1.11, and a number of silyl groups introduced per molecule of 2.1. The X block of the (meth)acrylic copolymer (A-1) had an average of 2.1 repeating units derived from a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group per copolymer molecule. The Y block of the (meth)acrylic copolymer (A-1) had 1.1% by weight of repeating units derived from a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group (based on the weight of all repeating units contained in the Y block). The repeating units derived from a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the Y block were extremely small. Therefore, when calculated with two significant digits, the number of repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the entire molecule, and the number of repeating units derived from the (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having an alkoxysilyl group contained in the entire X block are both 2.1.

[0114] [Examples 1 to 6, Comparative Examples 1 and 2] A cured product was prepared according to the following procedure. 1. Prepare each component in the amount (unit: g) shown in Table 1. 2. These ingredients were added to a 150cc plastic cup and mixed using a spoon after each addition. The ingredients were added to the cup in one of the following orders: ●Order A (A) (Meth)acrylic polymer having an alkoxysilyl group (B) Compounds having an amino group and a moiety with six or more carbon atoms (if contained) (D) Phosphate esters (if contained) Dehydrating agent Adhesion promoter ·(C) Curing catalyst ●Order B (A) (Meth)acrylic polymer having an alkoxysilyl group Dehydrating agent Adhesion promoter ·(C) Curing catalyst (B) Compounds having an amino group and a moiety with six or more carbon atoms connected thereto 3. Using a planetary stirring and degassing device (ARE-310, Thinky Corporation), the mixture was stirred (1600 rpm x 90 seconds) and degassed (2200 rpm x 300 seconds) to obtain a curable composition. 4. The obtained curable composition was cured under conditions of 23°C and 50% RH to obtain a cured product.

[0115] 〔result〕 The results are shown in Table 1. [Table 1]

[0116] As can be seen from Table 1, the one-part curable compositions according to the examples contained all of the components: (A) a (meth)acrylic polymer having an alkoxysilyl group, (B) a compound having an amino group and a moiety having 6 or more carbon atoms linked thereto, and (C) a curing catalyst. The one-part curable compositions according to the comparative examples did not contain (B) a compound having an amino group and a moiety having 6 or more carbon atoms linked thereto.

[0117] When comparing the strength of the cured products, the cured products of the Examples had the same or higher stress at 100% elongation and tear strength as the cured products of the Comparative Examples. When comparing the elongation of the cured products, the cured products of the Examples had significantly higher elongation at break than the cured products of the Comparative Examples. These results show that the cured products of the Examples have both high levels of elongation and strength.

[0118] Furthermore, when Examples 1 to 3 are compared with Examples 4 to 6, it is found that the storage stability of the curable composition is further improved by adding the (D) phosphoric ester.

[0119] As can be seen from Comparative Example 2, when the composition was prepared without mixing (B) the compound having an amino group and a moiety where 6 or more carbon atoms are linked before (C) the curing catalyst, curing started immediately after mixing. This shows that the mixing order of (B) the compound having an amino group and a moiety where 6 or more carbon atoms are linked with (C) the curing catalyst is important in order to prepare a one-component curable composition. [Industrial Applicability]

[0120] The one-part curable composition according to one embodiment of the present invention can be suitably used for pressure sensitive adhesives, sealing materials, adhesives, mold release agents, vibration isolators, vibration dampers, soundproofing materials, foam materials, paints, spray materials, and the like.
