Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a laminated film in which a cured fluororesin coating film is formed on the surface of a polyvinyl chloride resin composition film, a decorative film containing the laminated film, and an article decorated with the decorative film. [Background technology]

[0002] Adhering a decorative film to the surface of a structural component constituting an article, such as an automobile, building, furniture, or home appliance, has been proposed as a method for decorating or decorating the article (e.g., Patent Document 1). Such decorative films often have a cured coating formed on the surface of a film substrate to impart properties such as weather resistance, stain resistance, and corrosion resistance. The inventors considered that a cured coating formed using a paint containing a fluororesin, typically a fluororesin having a crosslinkable functional group and a curing agent reactive with the crosslinkable functional group, would be useful as the cured coating for such decorative films, because of its excellent properties such as weather resistance, water and oil repellency, and waterproof and moisture resistance (e.g., Patent Documents 2 to 4). Furthermore, films of polyvinyl chloride resin compositions are widely used as the film substrate for such decorative films. This is because polyvinyl chloride resin compositions allow for a wide range of flexibility adjustment by varying the amount of plasticizer, and have good moldability (when decoratively decorating the surface of a structural member using a decorative film) and mechanical properties, among other characteristics, and are also economically viable. Therefore, the inventors expected that a laminate film in which a cured fluororesin coating film is formed on the surface of a polyvinyl chloride resin composition film would be useful as a decorative film or decorative film component. However, it was discovered that a laminate film in which a cured fluororesin coating film is formed on the surface of a polyvinyl chloride resin composition film has a fatal drawback as a decorative film: it is prone to discoloration to red due to heat aging.

The term "plate" is used to refer to materials that cannot be industrially wound into rolls. In addition, in this specification, laminating one layer and another layer in order includes both directly laminating the layers and laminating the layers with one or more additional layers, such as an anchor coat, interposed between them.

[0010] In this specification, the term "more than or equal to" in relation to a numerical range means a certain number or more than a certain number. For example, 20% or more means 20% or more than 20%. The term "less than or equal to" in relation to a numerical range means a certain number or less than a certain number. For example, 20% or less means 20% or less than 20%. Furthermore, the symbol "to" in relation to a numerical range means a certain number, more than a certain number and less than another certain number, or another certain number. Here, another certain number is a number greater than the certain number. For example, 10 to 90% means 10%, more than 10% and less than 90%, or 90%.

[0086] The (α) polyvinyl chloride resin composition film may be transparent, opaque, colored and transparent, or colored and opaque or concealing.

[0087] When the (α) polyvinyl chloride resin composition film is transparent, the laminate film of the present invention can be suitably used as a material for constituting a decorative film having, from the surface, the (β) fluororesin cured coating film, a layer of the transparent (α) polyvinyl chloride resin composition film, a printed layer, and a concealing film substrate layer. When the (α) polyvinyl chloride resin composition film is colored and opaque or has concealing properties, the laminate film of the present invention can be suitably used as a decorative film having, from the surface, the (β) fluororesin cured coating film and a layer of the (α) polyvinyl chloride resin composition film colored in a desired color.

[0088] (β) Fluororesin cured coating: The laminate film of the present invention has the above-mentioned (β) fluororesin cured coating film on at least one surface of the above-mentioned (α) polyvinyl chloride resin composition film.

[0097] As the hydroxyl group-containing monomer and / or the carboxy group-containing monomer, one or more of these can be used.

[0100] The fluororesin may preferably contain a fluororesin having a hydroxyl group, and the hydroxyl value of the fluororesin having a hydroxyl group may be preferably 1 to 200 mgKOH / g, more preferably 10 to 160 mgKOH / g.

[0101] The fluorine resin can be obtained by polymerizing (copolymerizing) the above-mentioned fluorine-containing monomer, or the above-mentioned fluorine-containing monomer and the above-mentioned hydroxyl group-containing monomer and / or the above-mentioned carboxyl group-containing monomer, and, if desired, further using the above-mentioned other monomers, by a known polymerization method such as solution polymerization, emulsion polymerization, or suspension polymerization.

[0102] As the fluororesin, one or more of these can be used.

[0103] The curing agent may be, for example, a compound having two or more crosslinkable functional groups per molecule, such as an isocyanate group, an epoxy group, a carbodiimide group, an oxazoline group, a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a carbamoyl group, an amine group, an amide group, or a nitrile group.

[0104] When the fluororesin has a hydroxyl group, the curing agent may preferably contain a compound having two or more isocyanate groups per molecule. The hydroxyl group of the fluororesin reacts with the isocyanate group of the compound having two or more isocyanate groups per molecule to form a urethane bond, thereby imparting moldability to the cured coating film when decorating or decorating the surface of a structural member using a decorative film. This embodiment is particularly effective when the surface of the structural member has a three-dimensional shape, such as an uneven surface.

[0105] Examples of the compound having two or more isocyanate groups in one molecule include compounds having two isocyanate groups in one molecule, such as hexamethylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, tolylene diisocyanate, methylenebis-4-cyclohexyl isocyanate, and diphenylmethane diisocyanate; and trimethylolpropane adducts of compounds having two isocyanate groups in one molecule, such as trimethylolpropane adducts of tolylene diisocyanate, trimethylolpropane adducts of hexamethylene diisocyanate, and trimethylolpropane adducts of isophorone diisocyanate. compounds having three isocyanate groups per molecule; isocyanurate forms of compounds having two isocyanate groups per molecule, such as isocyanurates of tolylene diisocyanate, isocyanurates of hexamethylene diisocyanate, and isocyanurates of isophorone diisocyanate, compounds having three isocyanate groups per molecule; biuret forms of compounds having two isocyanate groups per molecule, such as biuret forms of hexamethylene diisocyanate; and blocked polyisocyanates thereof.

[0106] From the viewpoint of molding processability when decorating and decorating the surface of a structural member using a decorative film, and weather resistance, the compound having two or more isocyanate groups in one molecule is preferably a trimethylolpropane adduct of a compound having two isocyanate groups in one molecule, which has three isocyanate groups in one molecule; an isocyanurate of a compound having two isocyanate groups in one molecule, which has three isocyanate groups in one molecule; and a biuret of a compound having two isocyanate groups in one molecule, which has three isocyanate groups in one molecule. The compound may contain one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a trimethylolpropane adduct of hexamethylene diisocyanate having three isocyanate groups in one molecule, an isocyanurate of hexamethylene diisocyanate having three isocyanate groups in one molecule, and a biuret of hexamethylene diisocyanate having three isocyanate groups in one molecule.

[0107] Without intending to be bound by theory, it is believed that these films have a structural feature in which isocyanate groups are located at distant positions at the ends of hexamethylene chains, which results in an appropriate crosslink density and excellent moldability and weather resistance when using decorative films to decorate and decorate the surface of structural components. Therefore, it is believed that films that have a similar structural feature in which isocyanate groups are located at distant positions at the ends of alkyl chains can also be used preferably.

[0108] As the curing agent, one or more of these can be used.

[0109] When the curing agent is used, the amount of the curing agent to be added can be determined appropriately, taking into consideration the types of the fluororesin and the curing agent, from the viewpoint of ensuring that the crosslinkable functional groups of the curing agent are consumed in the curing reaction and do not remain unreacted in the coating film, and from the viewpoint of ensuring that the crosslinking reaction proceeds sufficiently.

[0110] An example will be described in which the fluororesin is a fluororesin having hydroxyl groups and the curing agent is a compound having two or more isocyanate groups per molecule. The ratio (q / p) of the number of isocyanates (q) derived from the compound having two or more isocyanate groups per molecule in the coating material to the number of hydroxyl groups (p) derived from the fluororesin having hydroxyl groups is preferably 2.0 or less, more preferably 1.6 or less, even more preferably 1.4 or less, and even more preferably 1.2 or less, from the viewpoint of preventing unreacted isocyanate groups from remaining in the coating film. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of sufficiently progressing the crosslinking reaction, it is preferably 0.1 or more, more preferably 0.3 or more, even more preferably 0.5 or more, and even more preferably 0.7 or more. For example, when the hydroxyl value of the fluororesin having hydroxyl groups is 5.6 mgKOH / g (the number of hydroxyl groups per unit amount is 0.10 mol / kg) and the number of isocyanate groups per unit amount of the compound having two or more isocyanate groups in one molecule is 1.0 mol / kg, the amount of the compound having isocyanate groups can be calculated to be preferably 1 to 20 parts by mass, more preferably 3 to 16 parts by mass, even more preferably 5 to 14 parts by mass, and still more preferably 7 to 12 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the fluororesin.

Examples of the solvent include water, methanol, ethanol, 1-methoxy-2-propanol, 1-ethoxy-2-propanol, 2-ethylhexyl glycol, and 2-ethylhexyl diglycol. One or more of these solvents can be used as the solvent.

[0113] The (β) coating material for forming a fluorine resin cured coating film may further contain optional components other than the fluorine resin, the curing agent, and the organometallic catalyst, as desired, within the scope of the object of the present invention.

In one embodiment, the amount of the optional components may be 50 parts by mass or less, 40 parts by mass or less, 30 parts by mass or less, 20 parts by mass or less, 10 parts by mass or less, 5 parts by mass or less, 1 part by mass or less, 0.5 parts by mass or less, 0 to 0.5 parts by mass, or about 0.01 to 50 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the fluororesin.

[0116] In one embodiment, the coating material for forming a cured fluororesin coating film (β) may not contain any one or more of the optional components described above.

[0117] In this specification, "not containing a certain component" means that the component is not intentionally blended. In the technical field of paints, when a component is intentionally blended, it is usually blended in an amount of 0.001 part by mass or more. Therefore, "not containing a certain component" can also be rephrased as meaning that the content of the component is usually less than 0.001 part by mass, preferably 0 to 0.0001 part by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the fluororesin.

[0118] The coating material (β) for forming a cured fluororesin coating film can be obtained by mixing and stirring these components.

[0119] The method for forming the (β) fluororesin cured coating film on the surface of the (α) polyvinyl chloride resin composition film using the (β) fluororesin cured coating film-forming coating material is not particularly limited, and any known web coating method can be used. Examples of the web coating method include rod coating, roll coating, gravure coating, reverse coating, kiss reverse coating, dip coating, spray coating, spin coating, air knife coating, and die coating. Among these methods, rod coating, roll coating, gravure coating, reverse coating, kiss reverse coating, and die coating are preferred from the viewpoint of applying the coating material productively by the roll-to-roll method.

[0120] The thickness of the (β) fluororesin cured coating film is not particularly limited as long as it does not contradict the object of the present invention. From the viewpoint of reliably achieving the purpose of forming the coating film, the thickness of the (β) fluororesin cured coating film may be preferably 0.5 μm or more, more preferably 1.0 μm or more, even more preferably 2.0 μm or more, and even more preferably 3.0 μm or more.

Here, the "surface" means the surface that is normally visible when the decorative film is used for the make-up and decoration of a structural member (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "actual use state").

[0122] In one embodiment, the decorative film of the present invention may have, from the surface, the above-mentioned (β) fluorine resin cured coating film, the above-mentioned (α) polyvinyl chloride resin composition film layer which is a transparent layer, a printed layer, and a concealing film substrate layer.

[0125] 3. Goods: The article of the present invention includes the decorative film of the present invention. In one preferred embodiment, the article of the present invention is an article such as an automobile, a building, furniture, or a home appliance (including parts of the article; the same applies hereinafter), in which the decorative film of the present invention is applied to the surface of a structural member constituting the article.

[0126] Examples of methods for applying the decorative film of the present invention to the surface of the structural member include flat lamination molding, wrapping molding, vacuum molding, pressure molding, vacuum pressure molding, membrane press molding, in-mold molding, insert molding, and overlay vacuum molding. The method for applying the decorative film of the present invention to the surface of the structural member can be appropriately selected taking into consideration the surface shape of the structural member (whether it is smooth or has a three-dimensional shape such as unevenness) and the type of product.

[0127] This section describes an example of applying a decorative film to the surface of a structural member having a three-dimensional shape, such as an uneven surface, by vacuum forming. Figure 2 is a conceptual diagram showing an example of a vacuum forming device. First, as shown in Figure 2(a), the decorative film 11 is heated and softened using a heating device 12, such as an infrared heater. Next, the decorative film 11 is removed from the heating device 12 and quickly placed over the structural member 13 (Figure 2(b)). At this time, the surface of the decorative film 11 opposite the (β) fluorine resin cured coating film is to be attached to the structural member 13. The structural member 13 may also be preheated. Next, the space 14 between the decorative film 11 and the structural member 13 is depressurized, and the decorative film 11 is brought into close contact with the structural member 13, resulting in an article 15 in which the decorative film 11 is attached to the structural member 13 (Figure 2(c)).

[0128] The pressure in the space 14 may be preferably 10 KPa or less, more preferably 1 KPa or less, from the viewpoint of ensuring sufficient adhesion without leaving any air between the decorative film 11 and the structural member 13. The adhesion force increases as the pressure in the space 14 decreases, but considering the mechanical strength of the decorative film 11 and the structural member 13 and the fact that reducing the pressure increases costs exponentially, the lower limit of the pressure in the space 14 is practically 10 -5 It may be about KPa.

[0150] The laminated film of the present invention is a laminated film in which a cured fluororesin coating film is formed on the surface of a polyvinyl chloride resin composition film, and it has been found that discoloration due to heat aging is suppressed.

[0151] The laminated film of Example 1 was further subjected to the following tests (c) and (e).

[0152] (c) Water contact angle (water repellency): The water contact angle (unit: degrees) of the (β) fluororesin cured coating surface of the laminated film was measured using an automatic contact angle meter "DSA20 (trade name)" manufactured by KRUSS Co., Ltd., according to a method of calculation from the width and height of the water droplet (see JIS R 3257:1999). The result was 93°.

[0153] (4) Dirt removal (oleic acid removal) Oleic acid (reagent grade, manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) and carbon black "FW-200 (trade name)" manufactured by Orion Engineered Carbons, Inc. were blended in a mass ratio of 10:1 and thoroughly mixed and stirred to prepare a contaminant. Next, 1 mg of the contaminant obtained above was applied to the (β) fluororesin cured coating surface of the laminate film in a 20 mm diameter circle and then rinsed with tap water. Rinsing was performed by simply directing running water at a flow rate of 1 liter per 10 seconds onto the coated contaminant, positioned 10 cm below the tap, for 20 seconds. The coated contaminant was observed to lift and peel off from the (β) fluororesin cured coating surface. The coated contaminant was completely removed from the (β) fluororesin cured coating surface, leaving no trace of the application. Based on these findings, the stain removal ability was determined to be excellent.
