Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a hydrophilic film, a laminate having a hydrophilic film, and a method for producing the laminate. [Background technology]
[0002] The present inventors have already proposed hydrophilic films that have hydrophilic properties and excellent antifogging, antifouling, antistatic, anticondensation, etc., and have a high concentration of hydrophilic groups on the surface (for example, Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, etc.). For example, if this hydrophilic film is applied to a bathroom window, it can make it difficult for limescale to accumulate, suppress the whitening of the window glass caused by limescale, and reduce the number of times it needs to be cleaned.It is an excellent material.
[0003] For transparent members such as the above-mentioned window glass that require improved visibility, it may be desirable to further cut light in a wavelength range known as yellow light. One method for cutting this specific wavelength range is to include in the hydrophilic film a dye compound capable of absorbing light in a specific wavelength range.

[0066] The compound (II) may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The compound (II) may be produced by a known method or a method similar to a known method, or may be commercially available.
[0067] The blending ratio of compound (I) and compound (II) is preferably 0.1 to 50 wt% of compound (I) and 99.9 to 50 wt% of compound (II) relative to the weight of compound (I) and compound (II), more preferably 0.3 to 30 wt% of compound (I) and 99.7 to 70 wt% of compound (II), and even more preferably 0.5 to 20 wt% of compound (I) and 99.5 to 80 wt% of compound (II).
[0068] [Surfactant (III)] The polymerizable composition (α) contains the above-mentioned compound (I) and compound (II) as well as a surfactant (III). However, the surfactant (III) does not have a polymerizable carbon-carbon double bond. The surfactant is usually a substance having a hydrophilic moiety such as an anionic hydrophilic group, a cationic hydrophilic group, or a hydroxyl group, and a hydrophobic moiety such as an organic residue.
[0069] By polymerizing the polymerizable composition (α) containing the surfactant (III), the sulfonic acid groups derived from the compound (I) are more likely to be concentrated on the surface of the polymer (cured product), and for example, the sulfonic acid groups are more likely to be inclined on the surface of a hydrophilic film containing the polymer.
[0070] Among the surfactants (III), surfactants (III') having a sulfonic acid group and a molecular weight of 200 to 1,000,000 are preferred. By polymerizing the polymerizable composition (α) containing the surfactant (III'), a polymer (cured product) can be obtained that not only has high hydrophilicity but also has high hydrophilic durability and high surface smoothness.
[0071] By including the surfactant (III') in the polymerizable composition (α), the surface energy of the surface of the composition that is in contact with the outside air is reduced, and the surface smoothness (leveling ability) of the polymer obtained from the polymerizable composition (α) can be improved without reducing the hydrophilicity.
[0072] As the surfactant (III'), when it is desired to improve hydrophilicity, a compound having a larger number of sulfonic acid groups tends to be preferred. When it is desired to improve leveling properties, a compound having a relatively small number of sulfonic acid groups and a large molecular weight of the organic residue portion tends to be preferred. The molecular weight of the surfactant (III') is usually in the range of 200 to 1,000,000, preferably in the range of 250 to 100,000, and more preferably in the range of 300 to 10,000. When the molecular weight is in the above range, a polymer having high hydrophilicity and excellent leveling properties, for example, a hydrophilic film containing the polymer, can be obtained.
[0073] Among the above surfactants, the compound represented by the following general formula (300) is preferred.
[0074] [ka] In the above formula (300), R represents an organic residue having 4 to 100 carbon atoms, FG represents a hydrophilic group containing at least one group selected from an anionic hydrophilic group, a cationic hydrophilic group, and a hydroxyl group, n represents the number of R bonded to FG and represents 1 or 2, n0 represents the number of FG bonded to R and represents an integer of 1 to 5, and when FG is a group containing one hydroxyl group, n0 represents an integer of 2 to 5.
[0075] Examples of the group containing an anionic hydrophilic group that serves as FG include hydrophilic groups represented by the following general formula (301).
[0076] [ka] In the above formula (301), M represents a hydrogen atom, an alkali metal, a half atom of an alkaline earth metal, or an ammonium ion, and #3 represents a bond bonded to the carbon atom included in R in formula (300).
[0077] Examples of surfactants in which FG is represented by the above general formula (301) include alkylsulfonic acid surfactants, alkenylsulfonic acid surfactants (however, the alkenyl group contained in the surfactant is not polymerizable), alkylacetic acid sulfonic acid surfactants, N-acylated sulfonic acid surfactants, hydroxyalkanesulfonic acid surfactants, arylsulfonic acid surfactants, sulfosuccinate surfactants, etc. Among these, alkylsulfonic acid surfactants and sulfosuccinate surfactants are preferred.
[0078] Examples of alkylsulfonic acid surfactants include sodium butylsulfonate, sodium pentylsulfonate, sodium hexylsulfonate, sodium heptylsulfonate, octyl sulfonic acid, sodium octyl sulfonate, potassium octyl sulfonate, ammonium octyl sulfonate, magnesium octyl sulfonate, calcium octyl sulfonate, nonyl sulfonic acid, sodium nonyl sulfonate, potassium nonyl sulfonate, ammonium nonyl sulfonate, magnesium nonyl sulfonate, calcium nonyl sulfonate, decyl sulfonic acid, sodium decyl sulfonate, potassium decyl sulfonate, ammonium decyl sulfonate, magnesium decyl sulfonate, calcium decyl sulfonate, sodium undecyl sulfonate, dodecyl sulfonic acid, sodium dodecyl sulfonate, potassium dodecyl sulfonate, ammonium dodecyl sulfonate, and magnesium dodecyl sulfonate. , calcium dodecyl sulfonate, sodium tridecyl sulfonate, tetradecyl sulfonic acid, sodium tetradecyl sulfonate, potassium tetradecyl sulfonate, ammonium tetradecyl sulfonate, magnesium tetradecyl sulfonate, calcium tetradecyl sulfonate, sodium pentadecyl sulfonate, hexadecyl sulfonic acid, sodium hexadecyl sulfonate, potassium hexadecyl sulfonate, ammonium hexadecyl sulfonate, magnesium hexadecyl sulfonate, calcium hexadecyl sulfonate, sodium hexadecyl sulfonate, sodium heptadecyl sulfonate, octadecyl sulfonic acid, sodium octadecyl sulfonate, potassium octadecyl sulfonate, ammonium octadecyl sulfonate, magnesium octadecyl sulfonate, calcium octadecyl sulfonate, sodium nonadecyl sulfonate, and sodium icosanyl sulfonate.
[0079] Among the surfactants in which FG is represented by general formula (301), compounds having an organic residue having 6 to 100 carbon atoms are preferred, compounds having an organic residue having 8 to 60 carbon atoms are more preferred, and compounds having an organic residue having 10 to 40 carbon atoms are even more preferred. Furthermore, among the above surfactants, sulfosuccinate surfactants are relatively preferred.
[0080] Among the surfactants (III'), a compound represented by the following general formula (301-A), which is a sulfosuccinate surfactant, is a preferred embodiment. In this compound, the sulfonic acid group is located relatively near the center of the organic residue, and the molecular weight of the entire organic residue is relatively large. Therefore, when a composition containing this compound is applied to a substrate or the like, the compound tends to be uniformly dispersed on the surface exposed to the air, which tends to reduce the surface tension and improve leveling properties.
[0081] [ka] In the formula (301-A), Z represents a hydrogen ion, an ammonium ion, an alkali metal ion, or a half-atom alkaline earth metal ion. Among these Z, an alkali metal ion is preferred, and a sodium ion or a potassium ion is more preferred.
[0082] In the above formula (301-A), R1 and R2 each independently represent an ester residue having 1 to 100 carbon atoms. Among these R1 and R2, an ester residue having 4 to 50 carbon atoms is preferred, and an ester residue having 6 to 30 carbon atoms is more preferred. As the ester residue, alkyl esters, alkylaryl esters, alkyl ether alkylene esters, and alkylaryl ether alkyl esters tend to be preferred, and alkyl esters tend to be more preferred.
[0083] Examples of the compound represented by the general formula (301-A) in which the ester residue is an alkyl ester include methyl sulfosuccinate, methyl sulfosuccinate sodium, methyl sulfosuccinate potassium, ethyl sulfosuccinate, ethyl sulfosuccinate sodium, ethyl sulfosuccinate potassium, propyl sulfosuccinate, propyl sulfosuccinate sodium, propyl sulfosuccinate potassium, butyl sulfosuccinate, butyl sulfosuccinate sodium, butyl sulfosuccinate potassium, pentyl sulfosuccinate, pentyl sulfosuccinate sodium, pentyl sulfosuccinate potassium, hexyl sulfosuccinate, hexyl sulfosuccinate sodium, hexyl sulfosuccinate potassium, octyl sulfosuccinate, octyl sulfosuccinate sodium, octyl sulfosuccinate potassium, nonyl sulfosuccinate, nonyl sulfosuccinate sodium, sulfosuccinate Nonyl potassium succinate, decyl sulfosuccinate, sodium decyl sulfosuccinate, potassium decyl sulfosuccinate, undecyl sulfosuccinate, sodium undecyl sulfosuccinate, potassium undecyl sulfosuccinate, lauryl sulfosuccinate, sodium lauryl sulfosuccinate, potassium lauryl sulfosuccinate, myristyl sulfosuccinate, sodium myristyl sulfosuccinate, potassium myristyl sulfosuccinate, cetyl sulfosuccinate, sodium cetyl sulfosuccinate, cetyl potassium sulfosuccinate, stearyl sulfosuccinate, sodium stearyl sulfosuccinate, potassium stearyl sulfosuccinate, oleyl sulfosuccinate, sodium oleyl sulfosuccinate, potassium oleyl sulfosuccinate, linolyl sulfosuccinate, sodium linolyl sulfosuccinate, and potassium linolyl sulfosuccinate.
[0084] The surfactant (III) may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0085] In the polymerizable composition (α), the surfactant (III) is typically contained in an amount ranging from 0.0001 to 50 wt %, preferably from 0.001 to 20 wt %, and more preferably from 0.01 to 10 wt %, based on the total amount of compound (I) and compound (II). Polymerizing a composition containing surfactant (III) in this range facilitates the concentration of hydrophilic groups derived from compound (I) on the surface of the polymerized product. For example, in the case of a hydrophilic film containing the polymerized product, the hydrophilic groups are more likely to be inclined toward the surface, enhancing hydrophilicity. Furthermore, the surface smoothness (leveling ability) of the product obtained from the polymerizable composition (α) can be improved. Furthermore, the leveling ability tends to improve with increasing surfactant (III) addition, but excessive addition may result in reduced transparency of the resulting cured product. Therefore, adding surfactant (III) in the above-mentioned range improves leveling ability while maintaining high transparency.
[0086] [Pigment compound (B)] The polymerizable composition (α) further contains a dye compound (B). The dye compound (B) has a water solubility of 1 g / 100 g or less. In this specification, the water solubility refers to the solubility in water at 25°C under atmospheric pressure. The water solubility can be determined by adding x g of the dye compound (B) to 100 g of water at 25°C under atmospheric pressure in a beaker, stirring with a stirrer for 1 hour, and then visually checking for any undissolved matter. By including a dye compound having such water solubility in the polymerizable composition (α), not only can the visibility of the polymer obtained from the polymerizable composition (α) be improved, but also the hydrophilicity of the polymer is not impaired.
[0087] Although the detailed mechanism is unclear, it is presumed that the following phenomenon occurs when the polymerizable composition (α) is applied to a substrate or the like. Specifically, the hydrophobic portion (organic residue) other than the hydrophilic portion (e.g., sulfonic acid group) contained in the surfactant (III) has a lower cohesive energy and is more hydrophobic than the hydrophilic portion. Therefore, when the polymerizable composition (α) is applied to a substrate or the like, the portion centered on the organic residue contained in the surfactant (III) is presumed to attempt to migrate to the surface exposed to the air and form some kind of ordered structure on that surface. This action of the surfactant (III) near the surface exposed to the air can improve surface smoothness (leveling). It is also presumed that the portion centered on the hydrophilic portion contained in the surfactant (III) faces away from the surface of the composition (toward the interior). As a result, the portion centered on this hydrophilic part interacts with the portion centered on the sulfonic acid group contained in compound (I), and the sulfonic acid group derived from compound (I) tends to concentrate near the surface of polymerizable composition (α) that is in contact with the outside air, making it easier to form a structure in which the sulfonic acid group is inclined toward the surface. In this case, if the solubility of the dye compound in water is high, exceeding 1 g / 100 g, and surfactant (III) prevents the dye compound from moving to the surface exposed to the air, the interaction between the sulfonic acid group-centered portion of compound (I) and the hydrophilic portion of surfactant (III) may be weakened, making it difficult to form the above-mentioned structure in which the sulfonic acid group is tilted toward the surface. On the other hand, when the solubility of the dye compound in water is as low as 1 g / 100 g or less, the dye compound does not adversely affect the surfactant (III) and the compound (I), and a structure in which the sulfonic acid groups are inclined on the surface is formed. Then, by polymerizing the polymerizable composition (α) having such a structure, this structure is fixed, and a polymer in which the sulfonic acid groups are segregated on the surface in contact with the outside air is obtained, and the water contact angle of the surface can be made low, for example, 30° or less.
[0088] From the viewpoint of the hydrophilicity of the resulting polymer, the solubility of the dye compound (B) in water is preferably 1 g / 100 g or less, more preferably 0.5 g / 100 g or less, and is usually 0.001 g / 100 g or more.
[0089] The coloring compound (B) is not particularly limited as long as its solubility in water is within the above-mentioned range, and may be, for example, either an inorganic compound or an organic compound classified as a dye or pigment. The range of the maximum absorption wavelength of the dye compound (B) is preferably 570 nm or more, more preferably 575 nm or more, even more preferably 580 nm or more, and is preferably 605 nm or less, more preferably 600 nm or less, even more preferably 595 nm or less, and still more preferably 590 nm or less. When the dye compound (B) has a maximum absorption wavelength in the above range, the appearance of the resulting hydrophilic film containing the polymer is improved, and the performance balance between transparency and visibility can be further improved.
[0090] The dye compound (B) preferably contains at least one selected from the group consisting of tetraazaporphyrin compounds and azo compounds, and more preferably contains a tetraazaporphyrin compound. The azo compound is a compound having an azo skeleton. The tetraazaporphyrin compound may have various substituents on the tetraazaporphyrin skeleton, and is preferably, for example, a compound represented by the following general formula (B1).

[0122] In order to use a hydrophilic film containing a polymer of the polymerizable composition (α) as, for example, an antifouling material or an antifogging material and to prevent deterioration even when exposed to the outside for a long period of time, it is desirable to prepare a weather-resistant composition by further adding an ultraviolet absorber and a hindered amine-based light stabilizer to the polymerizable composition (α).
[0123] The ultraviolet absorber is not particularly limited, and various ultraviolet absorbers such as benzotriazole-based ultraviolet absorbers, triazine-based ultraviolet absorbers, benzophenone-based ultraviolet absorbers, benzoate-based ultraviolet absorbers, propanediol-based ultraviolet absorbers, and oxanilide-based ultraviolet absorbers can be used.

Among these ultraviolet absorbers, triazine-based ultraviolet absorbers tend to be preferred.
[0125] The hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) is generally a general term for compounds having a 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine skeleton, and is broadly classified into low molecular weight HALS, medium molecular weight HALS, high molecular weight HALS, and reactive HALS depending on the molecular weight.

[0126] The amounts of the UV absorber and hindered amine light stabilizer added are not particularly limited. Based on the total amount of compounds (I) and (II), the UV absorber is typically 0.1 to 20% by weight, preferably 0.5 to 10% by weight, and the hindered amine light stabilizer is typically 0.1 to 10% by weight, preferably 0.5 to 5% by weight, and more preferably 1 to 3% by weight. When the amounts of the UV absorber and hindered amine light stabilizer added are within the above ranges, the weather resistance of the polymerized product obtained from the polymerizable composition (α), for example, a hydrophilic film containing the polymerized product, is significantly improved. When the amounts of the UV absorber and hindered amine light stabilizer added are less than the above ranges, the weather resistance of the resulting polymerized product, for example, a hydrophilic film containing the polymerized product, tends to be less improved. On the other hand, when the amounts of the UV absorber and hindered amine light stabilizer added are greater than the above ranges, the polymerization of the polymerizable composition (α) may be insufficient.
[0127] In addition, additives other than those described above may be added to the polymerizable composition (α) as needed. For example, titanium oxide, other metals, metal oxides, etc. may be added to the polymerizable composition (α) for the purpose of improving the mechanical and thermal strength of the resulting hydrophilic film containing the polymer, or for the purpose of imparting photoresponsiveness and bactericidal properties, etc. For example, a compound having a sulfur atom may be added to the polymerizable composition (α) for the purpose of increasing the refractive index of the resulting hydrophilic film containing the polymer. For example, metal salts such as silver and lithium, iodine, and iodonium salts may be added to the polymerizable composition (α) for the purpose of imparting bactericidal and antibacterial properties, etc. The amount of these additives added can be appropriately determined depending on the purpose, but is usually in the range of 0.01 to 200 wt %, preferably 0.1 to 100 wt %, of the total weight of Compound (I) and Compound (II).
[0128] The polymerizable composition (α) can be used, for example, in the production of a laminate having a hydrophilic film and a substrate, which comprises a step of applying the polymerizable composition (α) to a substrate to form a composition layer, and a step of polymerizing the monomers containing compound (I) and compound (II) of the composition layer.
[0129] [solvent] In consideration of the workability when producing a hydrophilic film, for example, a laminate having a hydrophilic film and a substrate, from the polymerizable composition (α), it is a preferred embodiment that the polymerizable composition (α) contains a solvent. The solvent is not particularly limited as long as the water contact angle of the hydrophilic film containing the polymer obtained from the polymerizable composition (α) is 30° or less, but solvents that have too strong an interaction, such as reacting with the components contained in the polymerizable composition (α) or forming a salt with the components, and solvents with too high a boiling point, for example, solvents with a boiling point above 200°C, are not preferred. For example, ethanolamine-based compounds having a hydroxyethylamino structure, such as ethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, N-ethylethanolamine, N-(2-ethylhexyl)ethanolamine, N-butyldiethanolamine, N-hexyldiethanolamine, N-lauryldiethanolamine, and N-cetyldiethanolamine [NRaRb(CH2CH2OH): Ra and Rb are independently hydrogen, an alkyl group having 1 to 15 carbon atoms, or a CH2CH2OH group] are preferred. ] interacts with the hydrophilic groups contained in compound (I), for example, with anionic hydrophilic groups such as sulfonic acid groups, and easily forms a salt or a salt-like form. Furthermore, it is difficult to evaporate, so even if you try to remove the solvent from the applied mixture, it tends to remain inside rather than moving to the surface exposed to the outside air. Therefore, the hydrophilic groups contained in compound (I) tend not to be inclined (concentrated) toward the surface exposed to the outside air of the applied material. Therefore, the above ethanolamine compounds are not desirable as solvents.
[0130] As the solvent, any appropriate solvent can be used, except for the solvents mentioned above, taking into consideration the solubility of compound (I), compound (II), surfactant (III), and dye compound (B), etc.
[0131] Examples of the solvent include alcohol-based solvents such as monohydric alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol (IPA), 1-propanol, 1-butanol, isobutanol, 2-butanol, 1-pentanol (1-amyl alcohol), isopentanol, methoxyethanol, isopropoxyethanol, n-butoxyethanol, 1-methoxy-2-propanol, and 2-methoxy-1-propanol, and polyhydric alcohols such as ethylene glycol, 1,3-propylene glycol, 1,2-propylene glycol, and glycerin; Ketone solvents such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, 2-pentanone, methyl isobutyl ketone, and cyclohexanone; Carboxylic acid solvents such as formic acid, acetic acid, and propionic acid; Carboxylic acid esters such as ethyl acetate, n-propyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, and isobutyl acetate; carbonate esters such as ethylene carbonate and 1,2-propylene carbonate; and other ester solvents; ether solvents such as diethyl ether, di-n-propyl ether, diisopropyl ether, di-n-butyl ether, and tetrahydrofuran; aprotic sulfonic solvents such as sulfolane; Aprotic sulfoxide solvents such as DMSO (dilauryl sulfoxide); Amide solvents such as N,N'-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N'-dimethylimidazolidinone (DMI), and N,N'-dimethylacetamide (DMAC); Nitrile solvents such as acetonitrile and butyronitrile; and water; and mixtures of the above solvents, such as mixtures of water and alcohol-based solvents. In one preferred embodiment, the solvent that can be contained in the polymerizable composition (α) includes at least one solvent selected from the group consisting of ester solvents, alcohol solvents, and ketone solvents.
[0132] The solvent is a relatively highly polar solvent. When a solvent is added to the polymerizable composition (α), a highly polar solvent tends to be preferred. When a highly polar solvent is included in the polymerizable composition (α), it is usually desirable to remove at least a certain amount of the solvent from the polymerizable composition (α) before polymerizing the polymerizable composition (α). During this solvent removal process, the sulfonic acid group-containing compound (I) is removed from the surface of the polymerizable composition (α) (a coated product of the polymerizable composition (α), such as the composition layer of the polymerizable composition (α) described below) that is exposed to the outside air. As a result, the compound (I) is inclined (concentrated) toward the surface of the polymerizable composition (α) that is exposed to the outside air, forming a gradient structure of hydrophilic groups toward the surface. Therefore, to facilitate this inclination (concentration), it is preferable that the solvent have a moderate interaction with the sulfonic acid groups contained in the polymerizable composition (α). It is also desirable that the inclusion of the dye compound (B) does not inhibit the above-mentioned function.
[0133] The solubility parameter (SP) is widely known as an index that represents such polarity. The solubility parameter (SP) value (hereinafter also referred to as "SP value") can be easily calculated using the following simple calculation method.
[0134] Solubility parameter (SP) calculation formula 1) Latent heat of vaporization per 1 mol Hb = 21 x (273 + Tb) (unit: cal / mol), Tb: boiling point (°C) 2) Latent heat of vaporization per mol at 25°C H25 = Hb × {1 + 0.175 × (Tb - 25) / 100} (unit: cal / mol), Tb: boiling point (°C) 3) Intermolecular bond energy E=H25-596 (unit: cal / mol) 4) 1 ml of solvent (cm 3 ) intermolecular bond energy per E1 = E × D / Mw (unit: cal / cm 3 ),D: Density (g / cm 3 ), MW: molecular weight 5) SP value σ = (E1) 1 / 2 (unit: cal / cm3 ) 1 / 2
[0135] The solvent contained in the polymerizable composition (α) has an SP value of 9.3 to 10.5 (cal / cm) calculated by the above-mentioned simple calculation method. 3 ) 1 / 2 The solvent (C) is preferably a solvent having an SP value of 9.3 to 10.5 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 The polymerizable composition (α) containing the solvent is also referred to as polymerizable composition (α1). When the solvent (C) is a mixture of a plurality of compounds, the SP value of the solvent is the sum of the products of the SP values of each solvent and the weight fractions of the solvents. For example, in a mixed solvent where solvent 1 has an SP value of σ1 and a weight fraction of W1, and solvent 2 has an SP value of σ2 and a weight fraction of W2, the SP value of the mixed solvent can be calculated as follows. SP value of a mixed solvent of solvent 1 and solvent 2 = (W1 × σ1) + (W2 × σ2) Similarly, in the case of a mixed solvent of three or more solvents, Solvent 1 to Solvent n (n is the number of solvents contained, which is three or more), the SP value of each solvent is calculated as σ1 to σ n , the weight fraction of each solvent is W1 to W n Then, it can be calculated as follows: SP value of mixed solvents of solvent 1 to solvent n = (W1 × σ1) + (W2 × σ2) + … + (W n ×σn) A polymer obtained from the polymerizable composition (α1) containing the solvent (C) having an SP value in the above range, for example, a hydrophilic film containing the polymer, has superior hydrophilicity and visibility.
[0136] From the viewpoint of the hydrophilicity and visibility of the obtained polymer, the SP value of the solvent (C) contained in the polymerizable composition (α1) is preferably 9.3 to 10.5 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 , more preferably 9.5 to 10.3 (cal / cm 3 ) 1 / 2 is.
[0137] In one preferred embodiment, the solvent (C) contained in the polymerizable composition (α1) has an SP value within the above-mentioned range and contains at least one solvent selected from the group consisting of ester solvents, alcohol solvents, and ketone solvents. Among these solvents (C), alcohol-based solvents such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, and 1-methoxy-2-propanol, ester-based solvents such as ethyl acetate, and ketone-based solvents such as methyl ethyl ketone, 2-pentanone, and methyl isobutyl ketone, mixtures of these solvents, and mixtures of these solvents with water are preferred. When the solvent (C) is a mixture of multiple compounds, it is sufficient that the SP value of the mixture calculated according to the above-mentioned calculation method is within the above-mentioned preferred range, and it is not necessary for the SP values of all of the compounds constituting the mixture to be within the preferred range.
[0138] The amount of the solvent contained in the polymerizable composition (α) can be appropriately determined taking into consideration the polymer obtained from the polymerizable composition (α), the physical properties of the hydrophilic film containing the polymer, economic efficiency, and the like.
[0139] The amount of the solvent used is typically 1% by weight or more, preferably 10 to 90% by weight, more preferably 20 to 80% by weight, and even more preferably 30 to 70% by weight, in terms of the concentration (solids / (solids+solvent)×100) of the solids contained in the polymerizable composition (α) (the total amount of components contained in the polymerizable composition (α) other than the solvent, i.e., compound (I), compound (II), surfactant (III), dye compound (B), silica (IV) which is contained as needed, and the above-mentioned additives).
[0140] The hydrophilic film containing the polymerized product of the polymerizable composition (α) can be obtained by polymerizing the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1). For example, the hydrophilic film can be formed by applying the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1) to the surface of a substrate, removing the solvent contained in the composition as necessary, and then polymerizing the composition. The suitable polymerization conditions for the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1) are the same as the suitable conditions for polymerizing the monomers containing the compound (I) and the compound (II) in the composition layer of the laminate described below. When the polymerizable composition (α1) is used, it is preferable to carry out the polymerization after removing the solvent (C), and the suitable conditions for removing the solvent (C) are the same as the suitable conditions for removing the solvent (C) from the laminate described below.
[0141] The water contact angle of the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure thus obtained is usually 30° or less, preferably 20° or less, and more preferably 10° or less. A hydrophilic film having such a water contact angle has excellent hydrophilicity.
[0142] The hydrophilic film of the present disclosure is usually provided on at least one surface of a substrate. The reason why such a highly hydrophilic film can be obtained is thought to be that when the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1) is applied to a substrate or the like and polymerized by heat, radiation (e.g., ultraviolet light), etc., the sulfonic acid groups self-assemble on the surface exposed to the air, and then a hydrophilic film containing the polymerized product is formed. Furthermore, when a dye compound with a solubility in water of 1 g / 100 g or less is added, the function of such sulfonic acid groups is not hindered, contributing to improved visibility.
[0143] As described above, the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure is believed to have a high concentration of the above-mentioned hydrophilic groups on its surface, and therefore has excellent antifogging properties, antifouling or self-cleaning properties, antistatic properties or dust-resistant properties, and the like, and also has excellent visibility due to the inclusion of the dye compound (B).
[0144] In this highly hydrophilic membrane, sulfonic acid groups are preferably distributed from the depth of the membrane on the substrate side to the surface, and have a concentration difference (gradient (hydrophilic group concentration ratio) (Sa / Da)) such that they are distributed in large numbers particularly on the outermost surface of the hydrophilic membrane that comes into contact with the outside air.
[0145] In the hydrophilic membrane of the present disclosure, the gradient (hydrophilic group concentration ratio) (Sa / Da) of the surface concentration (Sa) of sulfonic acid groups to the deep concentration (Da) of sulfonic acid groups at a point halfway through the membrane thickness of the hydrophilic membrane is preferably 1.1 or more, more preferably 1.2 or more, even more preferably 1.3 or more, and even more preferably 1.5 or more. The gradient (hydrophilic group concentration ratio) (Sa / Da) is preferably 20.0 or less.
[0146] The gradient (hydrophilic group concentration ratio) is determined by cutting a hydrophilic membrane sample obliquely, measuring the sulfonic acid group concentrations at the surface of the hydrophilic membrane exposed to the outside air and at a point halfway through the membrane thickness as fragment ion intensities using a time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometer (TOF-SIMS), and then calculating the values (relative intensities) of the sulfonic acid groups.
[0147] Hydrophilic films with a water contact angle below the above-mentioned value are highly hydrophilic and easily absorb (wet) water, making them excellent hydrophilic materials. Therefore, they are useful, for example, for anti-fogging materials, anti-fogging films (hereinafter also referred to as anti-fogging coats), anti-fouling materials, anti-fouling films, or self-cleaning coats, as well as anti-static materials, anti-static films, or dust-resistant coats. For example, when used as an anti-fogging coat, water droplets spread across the film surface, forming a water film, providing excellent anti-fogging effects. When used as a self-cleaning coat, water penetrates between the dirt and the coating surface, lifting and removing the dirt, providing excellent anti-fouling effects. Furthermore, in hydrophilic films, the evaporation area expands as water spreads, improving the evaporation rate and resulting in faster drying.
[0148] Furthermore, since the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure is believed to have a high concentration of sulfonic acid groups segregated (concentrated) on the surface, it has superior antistatic properties compared to conventional hydrophilic coatings in which hydrophilic groups are not segregated. Furthermore, since the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure has sulfonic acid groups as hydrophilic groups, it has superior antistatic properties compared to conventional coatings containing nonionic hydrophilic groups. Therefore, the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure is also useful as an antistatic material, antistatic coating, dust-proof coating, etc.
[0149] When the water contact angle is 30° or less, preferably 20° or less, and more preferably 10° or less, the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure is particularly preferably used as an anti-fogging material, an anti-fouling material, a quick-drying material, or an anti-static material. The water contact angle is usually 0° or more.
[0150] Polymerization of the polymerizable composition (α) or (α1) containing surfactant (III) allows hydrophilic groups derived from compound (I) to segregate (gradient) to the surface of the resulting hydrophilic film, and also allows hydrophilic films containing hydrophilic polymers to be obtained under a wider range of conditions. Furthermore, the inclusion of surfactant (III) relatively enhances the transparency of the resulting hydrophilic film, likely due to a compatibility effect that inhibits separation of compound (I) and compound (II). Furthermore, the inclusion of surfactant (III) allows hydrophilic films in which hydrophilic groups are segregated (gradient) to the surface to be obtained from compositions containing general hydrophilic polymerizable compounds (e.g., hydrophilic polymerizable compounds other than those claimed in WO 2007 / 064003), which could not be graded by conventional methods (e.g., WO 2007 / 064003) in which the hydrophilic groups are graded to the surface by accompanying the evaporation of a polar solvent. Furthermore, compositions containing the hydrophilic compounds described in the above publications tend to give hydrophilic films with higher hydrophilicity, in which hydrophilic groups are segregated (graded) on the surface.
[0151] Furthermore, by polymerizing the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1) containing the surfactant (III) (typically the compound (III')), a hydrophilic film having excellent leveling properties and high hydrophilicity, or a laminate having the hydrophilic film and a substrate, can be obtained. Furthermore, such a hydrophilic film having high surface smoothness (leveling properties) is resistant to external attack (for example, erosion by hot water, etc.), and its durability also tends to be improved.
[0152] The thickness of the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure can be determined appropriately depending on the application, but is usually in the range of 0.0001 to 500 μm, preferably 0.05 to 500 μm, more preferably 0.1 to 300 μm, even more preferably 0.5 to 100 μm, still more preferably 1 to 50 μm, and particularly preferably 2 to 30 μm.
[0153] The laminate of the present disclosure has a hydrophilic film containing the polymerizable composition (α) or a polymer of the polymerizable composition (α1) and a substrate. A preferred embodiment of the laminate of the present disclosure is a laminate in which the hydrophilic film is formed on the surface of a substrate. For example, when the hydrophilic film is an anti-fogging film, an anti-fouling film, a quick-drying film, or an anti-static film, a laminate in which the substrate is coated with the anti-fogging film, the anti-fouling film, the quick-drying film, or the anti-static film is obtained.
[0154] Examples of the substrate include substrates made of non-base materials such as glass, silica, metals, and metal oxides; Substrates made of organic materials such as polyacrylamide, polyisopropylacrylamide, polyacrylonitrile, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polycarbonate, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyurethane resin, epoxy resin, vinyl chloride resin, silicone resin, paper, and pulp; Organic-inorganic substrates such as SMC and BMC, which are composites of unsaturated polyester resin, fillers such as calcium carbonate, and glass fibers; and Examples of the substrate include a substrate having a coating layer made of a cured coating material, which is formed by coating the surface of a substrate made of these inorganic materials, organic materials, or organic-inorganic composite materials. When the laminate of the present disclosure is used by being attached to a transparent material (for example, glass), among the above substrates, a polyethylene terephthalate substrate is one preferred embodiment.
[0155] Furthermore, if necessary, the surface of these substrates may be subjected to physical or chemical treatments such as corona treatment, ozone treatment, low-temperature plasma treatment using oxygen gas or nitrogen gas, glow discharge treatment, oxidation treatment using chemicals, flame treatment, etc., for the purpose of activating the surface of the substrate. Furthermore, instead of or in addition to these treatments, primer treatment, undercoat treatment, or anchor coat treatment may be performed.
[0156] Examples of coating agents that can be used in the primer treatment, undercoat treatment, and anchor coat treatment include those containing, as the main component of the vehicle, a polyester resin, a polyamide resin, a polyurethane resin, an epoxy resin, a phenolic resin, a (meth)acrylic resin, a polyvinyl acetate resin, a polyolefin resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene, or a copolymer or modified resin thereof, a cellulose resin, etc. The coating agent may be either a solvent-based coating agent or a water-based coating agent.
[0157] Among these coating agents, modified polyolefin-based coating agents, ethyl vinyl alcohol-based coating agents, polyethyleneimine-based coating agents, polybutadiene-based coating agents, polyurethane-based coating agents; Polyester-based polyurethane emulsion coating agent, polyvinyl chloride emulsion coating agent, urethane acrylic emulsion coating agent, silicone acrylic emulsion coating agent, vinyl acetate acrylic emulsion coating agent, acrylic emulsion coating agent; Preferred are styrene-butadiene copolymer latex coating agents, acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer latex coating agents, methyl methacrylate-butadiene copolymer latex coating agents, chloroprene latex coating agents, rubber-based latex coating agents such as polybutadiene latex, polyacrylic acid ester latex coating agents, polyvinylidene chloride latex coating agents, polybutadiene latex coating agents, and coating agents consisting of carboxylic acid-modified latexes or dispersions of the resins contained in these latex coating agents.
[0158] These coating agents can be applied by, for example, gravure coating, reverse roll coating, knife coating, kiss coating, etc., and the amount applied to the substrate is usually 0.05 g / m after removing the solvent contained in the composition. 2 ~10g / m 2 , preferably 0.05 g / m 2 ~5g / m 2 is.
[0159] Among these coating agents, polyurethane-based coating agents are more preferred. Polyurethane-based coating agents have urethane bonds in the main chain or side chain of the resin contained in the coating agent. Polyurethane-based coating agents are coating agents containing polyurethane obtained by reacting a polyol such as polyester polyol, polyether polyol, or acrylic polyol with an isocyanate compound.
[0160] Among these polyurethane coating agents, polyurethane coating agents obtained by mixing a polyester polyol such as a condensation polyester polyol or a lactone polyester polyol with an isocyanate compound such as tolylene diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, or xylene diisocyanate are preferred because of their excellent adhesion.
[0161] The method for mixing the polyol compound and the isocyanate compound is not particularly limited. The compounding ratio is also not particularly limited, but since too little isocyanate compound may cause poor curing, it is preferable that the ratio of OH groups of the polyol compound to NCO groups of the isocyanate compound is in the range of 2 / 1 to 1 / 40 in terms of equivalents.
[0162] The substrate used in the laminate may have a substrate surface that has been subjected to the surface activation treatment.
[0163] The laminate of the present disclosure can be produced, for example, through a step of applying the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1) to a substrate to form a composition layer, and a step of polymerizing the monomers containing the compound (I) and the compound (II) of the composition layer. In particular, when a laminate is produced from the polymerizable composition (α1), A step of applying the polymerizable composition (α1) to a substrate to form a composition layer; removing at least a portion of the solvent (C) from the composition layer; and In one preferred embodiment, the laminate is produced by a production method including a step of polymerizing a monomer containing compound (I) and compound (II) in the composition layer after removal of the solvent (C).
[0164] In the method for producing the laminate, first, the polymerizable composition (α1) is applied to a substrate to form a composition layer. The method for applying the polymerizable composition (α1) to the substrate is not particularly limited, and for example, it can be applied by gravure coating, reverse roll coating, knife coating, kiss coating, etc. The amount of the polymerizable composition (α1) to be applied to the substrate can be determined appropriately depending on the application, but is usually 0.05 g / m in a state in which the solvent contained in the polymerizable composition (α1) has been removed. 2 ~10g / m 2 , preferably 0.05 g / m 2 ~5g / m 2 is.
[0165] In the method for producing the laminate, after forming a composition layer on a substrate, at least a portion of the solvent (C) is removed from the composition layer. This solvent removal from the composition layer is preferably performed thoroughly before polymerizing the monomers containing compound (I) and compound (II) of the composition layer described below. If the solvent (C) is not sufficiently removed from the polymerizable composition (α1), the sulfonic acid groups derived from compound (I) will migrate less to the surface of the composition layer exposed to the outside air, which tends to reduce the hydrophilicity of the resulting hydrophilic film. Even if the sulfonic acid groups migrate to the surface of the composition layer exposed to the outside air, if the solvent (C) remains in the composition layer, they tend to migrate more easily into the interior of the composition layer due to repulsive interactions with the air (hydrophobicity) present on the surface exposed to the outside air. This can result in insufficient concentration (gradient) of the sulfonic acid groups on the surface exposed to the outside air in the resulting hydrophilic film, reducing the hydrophilicity and further reducing adhesion to the substrate. Therefore, it is generally preferable to have as little solvent remaining in the composition layer as possible immediately before polymerization. The amount of the solvent (C) remaining in the composition layer immediately before polymerization is usually 10% by weight or less, preferably 5% by weight or less, more preferably 3% by weight or less, and even more preferably 1% by weight or less.
[0166] The temperature during removal of the solvent (C) is determined appropriately, but is usually in the range of room temperature to 200°C, preferably 30 to 150°C, more preferably 40 to 120°C, and particularly preferably 40 to 100°C.
[0167] The time required for removing the solvent (C) from the composition layer may be determined as appropriate, but a shorter time tends to be preferable when productivity is taken into consideration. For example, the solvent (C) can be removed in typically 30 minutes or less, preferably 10 minutes or less, more preferably 5 minutes or less, even more preferably 3 minutes or less, and particularly preferably 2 minutes or less. The atmosphere during solvent (C) removal may be air or an inert gas such as nitrogen, but a lower humidity atmosphere tends to be preferable, as it prevents deterioration of the appearance of the resulting hydrophilic film (e.g., orange peel, reduced transparency, etc.). Specifically, the humidity of the atmosphere is preferably 80% or less, more preferably 70% or less, even more preferably 65% or less, even more preferably 60% or less, and particularly preferably 55% or less.
[0168] When the solvent (C) is removed by wind, the wind speed is preferably 30 m / sec or less, more preferably in the range of 0.1 to 30 m / sec, even more preferably in the range of 0.2 to 20 m / sec, and particularly preferably in the range of 0.3 to 10 m / sec.
[0169] The pressure during removal of the solvent (C) is not particularly limited, and normal pressure or reduced pressure is relatively preferred, but slight pressure may also be used. As described above, when the hydrophilic membrane of the present disclosure itself is produced from the polymerizable composition (α1) or from the polymerizable composition (α) containing a solvent, it is desirable to remove the solvent according to the solvent removal conditions described above.
[0170] When producing the above laminate, a laminate having a hydrophilic film and a substrate can be obtained by polymerizing a monomer containing compound (I) and compound (II) of the composition layer after removal of the above-mentioned solvent (C). The polymerization method is not particularly limited, and for example, polymerization can be carried out using heat, radiation (for example, ultraviolet light), or a combination of both.
[0171] The polymerization can be carried out in the air, but is preferably carried out in an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen, since this shortens the polymerization time.
[0172] When polymerization is carried out using heat, the composition is usually made to contain a thermal polymerization initiator (thermal radical generator) such as an organic peroxide, and heated within a range from room temperature to 300°C or lower.
[0173] When polymerization is carried out using radiation (for example, ultraviolet light), the composition is usually made to contain a photopolymerization initiator and then irradiated with radiation. When polymerization is carried out using radiation (e.g., ultraviolet light), energy rays having a wavelength in the range of 0.0001 to 800 nm can be used. The radiation can be classified into α-rays, β-rays, γ-rays, X-rays, electron beams, ultraviolet light, visible light, etc., and can be appropriately selected and used depending on the composition of the mixture. Among these radiations, ultraviolet light is preferred, and the output peak of ultraviolet light is preferably in the range of 200 to 450 nm, more preferably in the range of 230 to 445 nm, even more preferably in the range of 240 to 430 nm, and particularly preferably in the range of 250 to 400 nm. When ultraviolet light having an output peak in the above range is used, problems such as yellowing and thermal deformation during polymerization are minimized, and polymerization can be completed in a relatively short time even when an ultraviolet absorber is added.
[0174] Furthermore, when an ultraviolet absorber or a hindered amine stabilizer is added to the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1), it is preferable to use ultraviolet light having an output peak in the range of 250 to 280 nm or 370 to 430 nm.
[0175] When polymerizing the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1) using radiation (e.g., ultraviolet light), in order to avoid polymerization inhibition by oxygen, the composition may be applied to a substrate or the like, and after removing the solvent contained in the composition as necessary, the coating layer may be covered with a coating material (e.g., a film) and irradiated with radiation to polymerize. When covering the coating layer with a coating material, it is desirable to ensure close contact between the coating layer and the coating material so that air (oxygen) is not trapped between them. By blocking oxygen, for example, the amount of (photo)polymerization initiator and the amount of radiation (e.g., ultraviolet light) exposure may be reduced.
[0176] The covering material may be any material and in any form as long as it blocks oxygen, but from the viewpoint of operability, a film is preferred, and among these films, a transparent film that is easy to polymerize by radiation (e.g., ultraviolet light) is preferred. The film thickness is usually in the range of 3 to 200 μm, with 5 to 100 μm being preferred, and 10 to 50 μm being even more preferred.
[0177] Examples of film materials that are preferably used as the above-mentioned covering material include polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), vinyl alcohol polymers such as ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, polyacrylamide, polyisopropylacrylamide, polyacrylonitrile, polycarbonate (PC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), and biaxially oriented polypropylene (OPP).
[0178] Although the equipment is expensive, using an electron beam in the range of 0.01 to 0.002 nm as radiation is a preferred embodiment because it allows polymerization to be completed in a short time. As described above, the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure itself may be produced by subjecting the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1) to the polymerization conditions described above.
[0179] A preferred embodiment of the laminate of the present disclosure is a laminate in which a hydrophilic film is formed on one side of a substrate and an adhesive layer is formed on the side of the substrate on which the hydrophilic film is not formed. For example, when the substrate is a film, a preferred embodiment is one in which the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure is formed on one side of the substrate film, and an adhesive layer is formed on the side on which the hydrophilic film is not formed, and a release film is also preferably provided on the surface of the adhesive layer. If an adhesive layer is laminated on the other side of the substrate film, the laminate film (laminate) having the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure can be easily attached as an anti-fog film and an anti-fouling film to glass, mirrors in bathrooms, the surfaces of display materials such as displays and televisions, signboards, advertisements, guide boards, signs on railways and roads, the exterior walls of buildings, window glass, etc.
[0180] The adhesive used in the adhesive layer is not particularly limited, and known adhesives can be used. Examples of adhesives include acrylic adhesives, rubber adhesives, vinyl ether polymer adhesives, and silicone adhesives. The thickness of the adhesive layer is usually in the range of 2 to 50 μm, and preferably in the range of 5 to 30 μm.
[0181] In the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure and the laminate including the hydrophilic film and the substrate, the surface of the hydrophilic film that is in contact with the outside air may be covered with a covering material, which can prevent the hydrophilic film from being damaged or soiled during transportation, storage, display, etc.
[0182] As the coating material, the aforementioned coating material that has been adhered to the coating film when the hydrophilic film of the present disclosure is formed on the substrate or the like by polymerization using radiation can also be used as the coating material as is.
[0183] Examples of film materials that are preferably used as the above-mentioned covering material include polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyacetyl cellulose (TAC), vinyl alcohol polymers such as ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, polyacrylamide, polyisopropylacrylamide, polyacrylonitrile, polycarbonate (PC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyacrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS), polystyrene (PS), and biaxially oriented polypropylene (OPP).
[0184] Furthermore, by polymerizing the polymerizable composition (α) or the polymerizable composition (α1) in molds of various shapes, it is also possible to obtain polymers (cured products) having various shapes, such as hydrophilic films and molded articles.
[0185] The hydrophilic film of the present disclosure and a laminate having the hydrophilic film and a substrate can be suitably used as an anti-fogging material, an anti-fouling material, a quick-drying material, an anti-static material, and the like.
[0186] The hydrophilic film and the laminate having the hydrophilic film and a substrate can be used in, for example, vehicles and vehicle materials, ships and ship materials, aircraft and aircraft base materials, buildings and building materials, windows, mirrors, exterior walls, exteriors, bodies, wheels, interior walls, interiors, floors, furniture and furniture materials for vehicles, ships, aircraft and buildings, etc., utilities such as piping and wiring and materials thereof, textile products such as clothing and cloth, home appliances such as sinks, bathrooms, dressing rooms, ventilation fans, and kitchens and materials thereof, electrical appliances such as washing machines, dish dryers, refrigerators, microwave ovens, ovens, and shavers and materials thereof, displays and materials thereof, optical films, optical discs, optical lenses, etc. The composition can be used to impart hydrophilicity, antifogging, quick-drying, and antifouling properties to optical articles such as eyeglass lenses, contact lenses, and goggles, dental materials such as dentures and dentures, lighting articles such as lamps and lights and their materials, heat exchanger parts such as cooling fins and their materials, recording and printing materials such as photoresists and inkjet recording plates, cosmetic containers and their materials, reflective materials such as reflective films and reflectors, sound-insulating plates installed on highways, display materials, printing or printing primers, other primers, flat panels, touch panels, sheets, films, tapes, transparent resins, and transparent materials such as glass. It can also be used to impart anti-condensation properties and anti-static properties. [Example]

The polymerizable composition (α1-1) was applied to one side of the PET film Lumirror U403 using a bar coater #12, and the film was placed in a hot air dryer for 2 minutes at 60°C to remove the solvent contained in the composition, thereby obtaining a PET film having an uncured composition layer. The PET film having the composition layer was passed through a UV conveyor once and then irradiated with UV light (electrodeless H bulb, illuminance 240 W / cm 2 , cumulative light intensity 200mJ / cm 2 ) to form a hydrophilic film (hydrophilic film formed from a cross-linked polymer) with a thickness of about 3 μm on the PET film substrate, thereby obtaining a laminate.
