The instrument used was a Perkin Elmer FT-IR (Spectrum Two), and the sample surface was pressed against the measurement area to carry out the measurement. After the measurement, automatic baseline correction was carried out using software. In this case, the absorbance of the peak α (α A ) to the absorbance of the peak β (β A ) ratio (β A / α A The values for ) were the average of three measurements. The obtained values are shown in Table 6.
[0058] Evaluation Test The following evaluation tests were carried out on the test plates of Examples 1 to 38 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5. The results of each evaluation test are shown in Table 6. From a practical standpoint, those without a D in each evaluation item shown in Table 6 were deemed to pass.
[0059] <Blood stain resistance> Five drops of pig blood (Tokyo Shibaura Organ Co., Ltd.) were placed on each test plate (1 drop: approximately 50 microliters). (Iron) was dropped onto the test plate and forcedly dried for 3 minutes in a hot air drying oven at 200°C to adhere to the surface. After cooling at room temperature, a 2.5 kg load was placed on a 1.2 cm diameter gauze, and the blood adhering to the coating film was wiped off five times. The gauze was replaced after each drop was wiped off. The area of blood remaining after wiping relative to the area of blood after drying and adhering for each drop was evaluated according to the following criteria. Table 6 shows the average evaluation values, excluding the best and worst evaluations among the five drops. It can be seen that the test pieces of the example exhibited excellent antifouling properties, even in a high-temperature environment of 200°C. On the other hand, the test pieces of the comparative example exhibited significantly inferior antifouling properties. AA: Less than 5% remaining A: Residual rate 5% to less than 15% B: Residual rate 15% to less than 30% C: Residual rate 30% to less than 45% D: Remaining rate is 45% or more or the coating is peeling off
[0060] <Film forming properties> The hardness of each test piece was measured in accordance with JIS K 5600-5-4:1999. The measurement results were evaluated according to the following criteria, and the results are shown in Table 6. It can be seen that a coating was formed on the test pieces of the examples even at drying temperatures of 20°C or 30°C. On the other hand, in some of the comparative examples, no coating was formed even at a drying temperature of 80°C. AA: Coating hardness 4H or higher A: Coating hardness less than 4H to more than H B: Coating hardness less than H ~ 2B or more C: Coating hardness less than 2B and coating formed D: No film formation
