Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an organopolysiloxane compound and a photocurable resin composition containing the same.

Background Art

[0002] As a method for imparting high water repellency, antifouling property, lubricity, etc. to a photocurable resin, a method of blending and copolymerizing an organopolysiloxane having a (meth)acryloyl group is known (Patent Document 1). However, many organopolysiloxanes having a (meth)acryloyl group have low compatibility with photocurable resins, and problems such as separation when blended in a photocurable resin composition or turbidity in the cured resin are likely to occur (Patent Document 2). In addition, many organopolysiloxanes having a (meth)acryloyl group have low photocurability, and problems such as unreacted organopolysiloxane bleeding out over time from the cured resin are likely to occur (Patent Document 3). Also, those with low photocurability are prone to inhibition of curing by oxygen. Although the introduction of a urea group is one of the techniques for improving photocurability, there is a concern that the viscosity will increase and the workability will deteriorate (Patent Document 4). Therefore, an organopolysiloxane compound that solves these problems has been urgently desired.

The mixing method and the apparatus used for mixing are not particularly limited, and known methods and apparatuses may be used. Also, the order of mixing the respective components is not particularly limited, and all the components may be mixed at once, or the respective components may be sequentially added and mixed in an arbitrary order. Since the organopolysiloxane compound of the present invention is excellent in compatibility with photocurable resins such as acrylic compounds, a photocurable composition containing the compound and an acrylic compound can be a cured product with high transparency and excellent appearance. Further, since the organopolysiloxane compound of the present invention has high photocurability, a composition containing the compound can be cured with less energy and is less likely to bleed. Furthermore, it is possible to save energy and shorten the process when producing a cured product. Also, since the organopolysiloxane compound of the present invention has a low viscosity and excellent workability, a composition containing the compound is also a composition with good handleability. Furthermore, a composition containing the organopolysiloxane compound of the present invention can be a cured product with excellent antifouling properties.

It was found that the organopolysiloxane compound of the present invention has a gelation point more than twice as fast as that of trimethylolpropane triacrylate. Furthermore, compared with the organopolysiloxanes of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 in which the polyoxyethylene chain is short (n in formula (2) is less than 9), and the organopolysiloxanes of Comparative Examples 6 to 10 that do not have the group represented by formula (2), the organopolysiloxane compound of the present invention was found to have very high photocurability.

[0050] In addition, compared with the organopolysiloxane of Comparative Example 7 that does not have the group represented by formula (2), has a polyoxyethylene group in the side chain, and has acryloyl groups at both ends, the organopolysiloxane compound of the present invention was found to be excellent in antifouling properties.

[0051] Furthermore, compared with the organopolysiloxane of Comparative Example 3 in which the polyoxyethylene chain is long (n in formula (2) is more than 12) and the organopolysiloxane of Comparative Example 4 in which the molecular weight of the one having the group represented by formula (2) is large, the organopolysiloxane of the present invention has a kinematic viscosity of 3,000 mm 2 / s or less, is easy to handle, and was found to be excellent in workability.
