Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a photosensitive resin composition, a liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film, and an inkjet recording head. [Background technology]

[0002] Fluorine-based water-repellent materials are generally known as materials for forming liquid-repellent and stain-resistant films. Compounds containing perfluoroalkyl or perfluoropolyether groups, in particular, have excellent liquid-repellent and durability properties and are widely used in a variety of applications. However, because fluorine-containing compounds are highly chemically stable and persistent, if they are continuously released into the environment, they may remain in the environment for long periods of time, potentially affecting human health and the habitat and growth of plants and animals through the environment and food chain. Therefore, in recent years, there has been a demand for a shift from fluorine-based water-repellent materials to non-fluorine-based water-repellent materials in order to realize a sustainable society, such as a recycling-oriented society.

[0003] Silicone compounds are fluorine-free water repellents that exhibit excellent liquid repellency and can be used as an alternative to fluorine-based water repellents. Silicone compounds can eliminate concerns about environmental impact and fluorine sources. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique using a silicone compound, particularly a siloxane-containing epoxy resin composition, as a non-fluorine-based water repellent material. In the composition described in Patent Document 1, the epoxy groups form a crosslinked structure upon curing, which can impart not only liquid repellency but also mechanical strength.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-158818 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] When a silicone compound has a functional group at only one end of the siloxane main chain, the siloxane main chain is likely to be oriented on the surface, enabling high liquid repellency to be achieved, as in Patent Document 1. However, according to the studies of the present inventors, since only one end of the siloxane main chain is fixed in the cured product, the mechanical strength may be insufficient. On the other hand, when a silicone compound having functional groups at both ends is used, the fixation in the cured product is strengthened, and the flexibility of the siloxane main chain is improved, making it possible to obtain high mechanical strength. However, in this case, the orientation of the siloxane main chain on the surface is reduced, which reduces the liquid repellency and may make it difficult to maintain the liquid repellency.

[0006] The present disclosure provides a photosensitive resin composition containing a silicone compound that can achieve both high liquid repellency and mechanical strength, and also provides a liquid-repellent, stain-resistant film and an inkjet recording head that use the photosensitive resin composition.

[0054] 1A and 1B has a substrate 1 on which energy generating elements 2 that generate energy used to eject liquid are arranged in two rows at a predetermined pitch. A liquid supply port 3 is opened in the substrate 1 between the two rows of the energy generating elements 2. On the substrate 1, ejection ports 5 are formed by an ejection port forming member 4 at positions facing each of the energy generating elements 2.

[0055] The shape of the discharge port 5 may be a so-called tapered shape in which the area of ​​the cross section parallel to the substrate 1 decreases from the substrate 1 side toward the discharge port 5. The discharge port forming member 4 is composed of a side wall 8 that forms individual flow paths 6 that communicate from the supply port 3 to each discharge port 5, and a top plate 9 on which the discharge ports 5 open. The discharge port forming member 4 may have the side wall 8 and the top plate 9 integrated together.

[0056] A liquid-repellent, anti-fouling film (liquid-repellent layer) 7 is provided on the ejection port forming member. For example, an inkjet recording head has the liquid-repellent, anti-fouling film 7 on the surface where the ejection ports are provided. The liquid-repellent, anti-fouling film 7 prevents ink ejected from the ejection ports 5 from adhering to the surface of the recording head. The shape, material, etc. of the substrate 1 are not particularly limited as long as it functions as part of the members that make up the flow path 6 and can also function as a support for the ejection port forming member 4. In this embodiment, a silicon substrate is used as the substrate 1 because it is easy to process.

[0057] This recording head is arranged so that the surface where the ejection ports 5 open faces the recording surface of the recording medium. Energy generated by the energy generating elements 2 is applied to ink filled in the flow paths 6 via the supply ports 3, causing ink droplets to be ejected from the ejection ports 5 and attached to the recording medium, thereby performing recording. The energy generating elements 2 can be elements that generate energy by heat, such as electrothermal conversion elements (so-called heaters), or elements that generate energy mechanically, such as piezoelectric elements.

[0058] The liquid-repellent, antifouling film 7 is a cured product of a photosensitive resin composition. Specifically, the liquid-repellent, antifouling film 7 can be formed as a cured product by applying a solution containing the photosensitive resin composition and curing the coating of the solution.

[0059] 2A to 2H, an example of a method for manufacturing an inkjet recording head will be described. In the inkjet recording head, known materials can be used except for the liquid-repellent and stain-proofing film 7.

[0060] 2A to 2H are schematic cross-sectional views showing an example of a method for manufacturing an inkjet recording head according to the steps, and the positions of the cross sections are the same as those in FIG. 1B.

[0061] First, as shown in Fig. 2A, a substrate 1 having energy generating elements 2 provided on its surface is prepared. Electrodes (not shown) for inputting control signals to operate the energy generating elements 2 are connected to the energy generating elements 2. Various functional layers may also be provided, such as a protective layer (not shown) for improving the durability of the energy generating elements 2 and an adhesion improving layer (not shown) for improving adhesion between the ejection port forming member 4 and the substrate 1.

[0062] 2B, an ink supply port 3 is formed penetrating the substrate 1. The supply port 3 can be formed by wet etching using an alkaline etching solution such as TMAH (tetramethylammonium hydroxide), or by dry etching such as reactive ion etching.

[0063] Next, as shown in FIG. 2C, a first photosensitive resin layer 10 containing a photosensitive resin and a photopolymerization initiator is formed on the substrate 1 including the energy generating elements 2. The first photosensitive resin layer 10 is a so-called negative photosensitive resin layer. The first photosensitive resin layer 10 is preferably formed by applying a photosensitive resin to a film substrate made of PET or polyimide and transferring it onto the substrate 1 using a lamination method. Epoxy resin is preferably used as the photosensitive resin contained in the first photosensitive resin layer 10 because it satisfies various performance requirements, such as high mechanical strength, adhesion to the substrate, ink resistance, and resolution for patterning the fine pattern of the ejection orifices 5.

[0064] The epoxy resin and photopolymerization initiator may be the same as those described above. The amount of the photopolymerization initiator added can be any amount that achieves the target sensitivity. The amount of the photopolymerization initiator added is preferably in the range of 0.5 to 5% by mass relative to the epoxy resin. If necessary, a wavelength sensitizer may be added, and an example of such a wavelength sensitizer is "SP-100" (trade name) manufactured by Adeka Corporation.

[0065] Furthermore, additives can be added to the photosensitive resin composition as needed, such as a flexibility-imparting agent to reduce the elastic modulus of the epoxy resin, or a silane coupling agent to improve adhesion to the substrate.

[0066] Next, as shown in FIG. 2D, pattern exposure is performed through a mask (not shown), followed by heat treatment to form side walls 8. The mask is a substrate made of a material such as glass or quartz that transmits light of the exposure wavelength, on which a light-shielding film such as a chromium film is formed in accordance with the pattern of the flow channel 6. As the exposure device, a single-wavelength light source such as an i-line exposure stepper or KrF stepper, or a projection exposure device having a broad-wavelength light source of a mercury lamp such as Canon's "Mask Aligner MPA-600Super" (product name) can be used.

[0067] On the substrate 1 on which the sidewalls 8 have been formed in this manner, a second photosensitive resin layer 11 is formed as shown in FIG. 2E. The second photosensitive resin layer 11 is a negative photosensitive resin layer similar to the first photosensitive resin layer 10. As the photosensitive resin contained in the second photosensitive resin layer 11, a bisphenol-type epoxy resin or a novolac-type epoxy resin is preferably used. The second photosensitive resin layer 11 can be formed by the same method as the first photosensitive resin layer 10.

[0068] 2F, a coating film 12 of a solution of a photosensitive resin composition for forming the liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film 7 is formed on the second photosensitive resin layer 11. The coating film 12 can be formed by applying the photosensitive resin composition by a method such as spin coating, roll coating, or slit coating.

[0069] Next, as shown in FIG. 2G, pattern exposure is performed through a mask (not shown) and the coating is cured to form a top plate 9 and a liquid-repellent, stain-resistant coating 7. The mask is a substrate made of a material such as glass or quartz that transmits light of the exposure wavelength, on which a light-shielding film such as a chrome film is formed in accordance with the pattern of the discharge ports 5. As the exposure device, a single-wavelength light source such as an i-line exposure stepper or KrF stepper, or a projection exposure device having a broad-wavelength mercury lamp as a light source such as Canon's "Mask Aligner MPA-600Super" (product name) can be used.

[0070] Next, as shown in FIG. 2H, the unexposed portions of the second photosensitive resin layer 11 and the coating film 12 are removed by a development process to form the discharge ports 5. By simultaneously exposing and developing the second photosensitive resin layer 11 and the coating film 12, the cationic polymerizable groups in the second photosensitive resin layer 11 and the coating film 12 react with each other, resulting in a highly durable, highly antistatic, liquid-repellent, and stain-resistant film 7. At this time, the unexposed portions of the first photosensitive resin layer 10 are also dissolved and removed at the same time, forming the flow paths 6.

[0071] Furthermore, if necessary, a heat treatment is carried out, and then bonding of members (not shown) for ink supply and electrical bonding (not shown) for driving the energy generating elements 2 are carried out to complete the inkjet recording head.

[0072] <Recording method> The recording method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure uses the inkjet recording head to record an image on a recording medium by ejecting a liquid, particularly an ink containing a pigment, from the inkjet recording head. When the inkjet recording head is filled with ink, the side surface of the liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film is always in contact with the ink. By using the inkjet recording head, even after long-term use, non-discharge can be suppressed because the liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film 7 has ink durability. [Example]

[0073] The present disclosure will be described in further detail below with reference to examples, but the present disclosure is not limited to the following examples.

[0074] <Formation of liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film> Example 1 A liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film was formed according to the procedures shown in Figures 3A and 3B. A photosensitive resin composition 1 shown in Table 5-1 was applied to a silicon substrate 13 to form a coating film 12, which was then heat-treated at 70°C for 3 minutes. Subsequently, the coating film 12 was exposed to 5000 Jm using an i-line exposure stepper (Canon Inc.'s "FPA-3000i5+"). -2 The film was exposed to light at 1000 K and then heat-treated at 90° C. for 5 minutes. After washing with PGMEA, the film was further heat-treated at 200° C. for 1 hour to form a liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film 7. The formulation of photosensitive resin composition 1 is as follows: a Epoxy resin: 100 parts by mass d Photopolymerization initiator: 1.5 parts by mass h Resin (A): 0.4 parts by mass n Resin (B): 0.4 parts by mass Solvent PGMEA: adjusted to a solids concentration of 20% by mass.

[0075] Incidentally, materials a to v used in the photosensitive resin compositions in the examples and comparative examples, including those below, are shown in Tables 4-1, 4-2, 4-3 and 4-4.

[0076] (Examples 2 to 118) A liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film 7 was formed in the same manner as in Example 1, except that photosensitive resin compositions 2 to 135 shown in Tables 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, and 5-4 were used. In the examples where a curing accelerator was used, the curing accelerator was used in an amount of 3 mass % relative to the epoxy resin. In the examples where no epoxy resin was used, the photosensitive resin compositions were prepared in the following amounts. Photopolymerization initiator: 1.5 parts by mass Resin (A): 0.4 parts by mass Resin (B): 0.4 parts by mass Solvent PGMEA: adjusted to a solids concentration of 20% by mass.

[0077] (Comparative Examples 1 to 8) In forming the liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film 7, a liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film was produced in the same manner as in Example 1, except that photosensitive resin compositions 136 to 143 shown in Table 6 were used.

[0078] <Fabrication of Ink Jet Recording Head> In addition to the liquid-repellent and stain-proofing film, an inkjet recording head was fabricated by the steps shown in FIGS. 2A to 2H. First, as shown in FIG. 2A, a substrate 1 having an energy generating element 2 provided on its surface was prepared, and an ink supply port 3 penetrating the substrate 1 was formed by etching using TMAH as shown in FIG. 2B.

[0079] Next, as shown in FIG. 2C, a cationic polymerizable resin composition shown in Table 1 was transferred onto the substrate 1 including the energy generating elements 2 by lamination to form a first photosensitive resin layer 10. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2D, pattern exposure was performed through a quartz mask (not shown), and side walls 8 were formed by heat treatment at 90°C for 5 minutes. An i-line exposure stepper (Canon Inc.'s "FPA-3000i5+") was used as the exposure device, and the exposure dose was 10,000 Jm. -2 It was decided.

[0080] On the substrate 1 on which the sidewalls 8 were thus formed, a second photosensitive resin layer 11 was formed as shown in Fig. 2E. The second photosensitive resin layer 11 was formed by transferring the cationic polymerizable resin composition shown in Table 2 by a lamination method. Next, as shown in FIG. 2F, the photosensitive resin composition having the formulation of Example 1 shown in Table 5-1 was applied onto the second photosensitive resin layer 11, and then heat-treated at 70°C for 3 minutes. Furthermore, the second photosensitive resin layer 11 and the coating film 12 were simultaneously subjected to pattern exposure through a mask (not shown) having a pattern of the discharge ports 5, and then heat-treated at 90°C for 5 minutes. An i-line exposure stepper (Canon Inc.'s "FPA-3000i5+") was used as the exposure device, and the exposure dose was 5000 Jm -2 (Figure 2G). Finally, the non-exposed areas of the photosensitive resin layer and coating were dissolved and removed using PGMEA, and the resulting product was heat-treated at 200°C for 1 hour to form an ejection port 5, a flow path 6, and a liquid-repellent and antifouling film 7 (Figure 2H).

[0081] [Table 1]

[0082] [Table 2]

[0083] (Examples 2 to 135) Inkjet recording heads of Examples 2 to 135 were prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that in the preparation of the inkjet recording head of Example 1, the coating solution used to form the liquid-repellent and stain-proofing film 7 was changed to photosensitive resin compositions 2 to 135 shown in Tables 5-1, 5-2, 5-3 and 5-4, respectively.

[0084] (Comparative Examples 1 to 8) Inkjet recording heads of Comparative Examples 1 to 8 were prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that in the preparation of the inkjet recording head of Example 1, the coating solution used to form the liquid-repellent and stain-proofing film 7 was changed to photosensitive resin compositions 136 to 143 shown in Table 6, respectively.

[0085] <Evaluation of liquid-repellent and stain-resistant films> The liquid-repellent and stain-resistant films prepared by the methods of Examples 1 to 135 and Comparative Examples 1 to 8 were evaluated as follows.

[0086] (Initial water repellency) The dynamic receding contact angle θγ of the liquid-repellent and anti-fouling film with pure water was measured using a microcontact angle meter (Microjet Corporation, product name: "DropMeasure") to evaluate the initial water repellency. A rating was given to cases where water repellency was good and the film exhibited a good receding contact angle θγ of 85° or more, a rating of B was given to cases where the film was usable as a liquid-repellent and anti-fouling film with a value of θγ of 70° or more but less than 85°, and a rating of C was given to cases where the film was insufficient as a liquid-repellent and anti-fouling film because the value was less than 70°.

[0087] (ink durability) The liquid-repellent and stain-resistant coating was immersed in a pigment-containing ink and kept at 70°C for one week. Then, θγ was measured in the same manner as above to evaluate ink durability. A rating was given to a θγ of 85° or greater, a rating of B to a repellent angle of 70° or greater but less than 85°, and a rating of C to a θγ of less than 70°, which was insufficient as a liquid-repellent and stain-resistant coating.

[0088] (wipe durability) The liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film was wiped using a pigment ink under the conditions shown in Table 3. Then, θγ was measured in the same manner as above using a microcontact angle meter (Microjet Corporation, product name: "DropMeasure") to evaluate the mechanical strength. A rating was given to cases where θγ was 85° or greater, B to cases where θγ was 70° or greater but less than 85°, and C to cases where θγ was less than 70° and the film was insufficient as a liquid-repellent and stain-resistant film.

[0089] [Table 3]

[0090] The evaluation results are shown in the following Tables 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 5-4 and Table 6. In the tables, n-Bu represents an n-butyl group, and Me represents a methyl group.

[0091] <Evaluation of inkjet recording head> The ink jet recording heads produced in Examples 1 to 135 and Comparative Examples 1 to 8 were evaluated as follows. Using a Canon MB5330 printer, the inkjet recording head was replaced with the one to be evaluated, and a continuous printing test was carried out in an environment of 30°C and 80% RH, and the presence or absence of dot distortion was visually confirmed. The continuous printing test consisted of printing 100 sheets of A4 solid print in succession. If distortion occurred in even one place within the A4 print, the print quality was deemed NG.

[0092] [Table 4-1]

[0093] [Table 4-2] [Table 4-3] In each compound in Tables 4-3 and 4-4, the arrangement of the parenthesized structures with m and the parenthesized structures with n is random.

[0094] [Table 4-4]

[0095] [Table 5-1]

[0096] [Table 5-2]

[0097] [Table 5-3]

[0098] [Table 5-4]

[0099] [Table 6]

[0100] As shown in Tables 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, and 5-4, Examples 1 to 135 were able to achieve excellent initial water repellency, ink durability, and wipe durability. In particular, the combination of resin composition p and resin composition v showed excellent ink durability and wipe durability. It is believed that the resin composition has three highly reactive 2-(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl)alkyl groups, which allows for sufficient curing.

[0101] On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 to 8, the θγ after ink immersion or wiping was 70° or less, indicating insufficient mechanical strength. When using only resin (A), a siloxane resin containing one epoxy group is likely to have excellent ink durability because the water-repellent group is likely to segregate on the surface, but it is thought that the wiping durability is poor because the resin is not cured sufficiently. On the other hand, when only resin (B) is used, a siloxane resin containing two or more epoxy groups has excellent wipe durability, but its liquid repellency is insufficient and the resin is thought to be deteriorated by the ink. Furthermore, in Comparative Examples 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 and 8, when A:B was out of the range of 3:1 to 1:3, the ink durability or wipe durability also decreased.

[0102] In the evaluation using an inkjet recording head, there was no distortion even in continuous printing and high print quality was achieved for Examples 1 to 135. On the other hand, distortion was observed after continuous printing for Comparative Examples 1 to 8.

[0103] As mentioned above, fluorine-based water-repellent materials exhibit good water-repellency, but there are concerns about their impact on the environment. On the other hand, the photosensitive resin composition according to this embodiment exhibits good water repellency even without containing a fluorine-based water repellent material. Therefore, the technology described in this specification can contribute to the realization of a sustainable society, such as a decarbonized / recycling-based society.
