Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a two-component curable composition and a waterproofing material using the same. The present invention also relates to a method for manufacturing a waterproofing structure using a two-component curable composition. [Background technology]

[0002] Coating waterproofing is a waterproofing method that involves applying a solution or emulsion of synthetic rubber or synthetic resin, consisting of one or more components, to the substrate of a building to form a continuous waterproof layer of a predetermined thickness. As described in JIS A 6021, various materials are used in coating waterproofing, including urethane rubber, acrylic rubber, chloroprene rubber, rubber asphalt, FRP, and silicone rubber.

[0003] Incidentally, it is known that organic polymers containing reactive silicon groups can be crosslinked at room temperature through the formation of siloxane bonds accompanied by hydrolysis reactions of the reactive silicon groups due to moisture, etc., resulting in a rubbery cured product.

[0004] The use of a curable composition containing an organic polymer containing reactive silicon groups as a waterproof coating material has been investigated, for example, in Patent Document 1. Patent Document 1 discloses a curable composition for use in waterproofing methods, which contains an organic polymer (A) having silicon-containing groups, an epoxy resin (B), and an epoxy resin curing agent (C). Patent Document 1 also discloses that the main chain of the organic polymer (A) can be selected from oxyalkylene polymers and (meth)acrylic acid ester polymers, etc. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2014-227427 [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0006] However, the prior art as described above had room for further improvement in terms of tear strength. One aspect of the present invention aims to realize a two-component curable composition capable of obtaining a cured product with improved tear strength.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, the two-component curable composition according to one aspect of the present invention is -Si(R) 3-a (X) a (1) (In the formula, R represents a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. X represents a hydroxyl group or a hydrolyzable group. a represents 2 or 3.) It contains a polyoxyalkylene polymer (A) having a reactive silicon group represented by, an epoxy resin curing agent (B), and a (meth)acrylate copolymer (C), and the epoxy resin curing agent (B) and the (meth)acrylate copolymer (C) are contained in separate solutions from each other. It is a two-component curable composition, and the (meth)acrylate copolymer (C) contains structural units derived from a (meth)acrylate monomer having a glycidyl structure and a (meth)acrylate monomer having a hydroxy structure.

Effects of the Invention

[0008] According to one aspect of the present invention, it is possible to provide a two-component curable composition capable of obtaining a cured product with improved tear strength.

Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0009] One embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below. Note that (meth)acrylic acid represents acrylic acid and / or methacrylic acid. All the documents described in this specification are incorporated herein by reference.

[0010] 〔1. Two-component curable composition〕 A multi-component curable composition according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a polyoxyalkylene polymer (A) having a reactive silicon group represented by general formula (1), an epoxy resin curing agent (B), and a (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C), wherein the epoxy resin curing agent (B) and the (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C) are contained in separate solutions, and the (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C) comprises structural units derived from a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having a glycidyl structure and a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having a hydroxyl structure. In this specification, the solution containing the epoxy resin curing agent (B) is also referred to as the first agent, and the solution containing the (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C) is also referred to as the second agent.

[0011] The inventors' independent research revealed that simply combining a polyoxyalkylene polymer (A) having reactive silicon groups with a conventional (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer as a waterproof coating material left room for improvement in tear strength. For example, there was room for improvement from the viewpoint of making the waterproof coating material a walkable coating film. As a result of diligent research to solve the above problems, the inventors found that tear strength could be improved by using a (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C) containing structural units derived from a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having a glycidyl structure and a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer having a hydroxyl structure as the second agent.

[0012] Furthermore, it was found that the multi-component curable composition according to one embodiment of the present invention provides tackiness and weather resistance equivalent to or better than conventional compositions.

[0013] While inexpensive two-component urethane products (containing residual isocyanate) are commonly used in waterproof coating materials, according to one embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to provide a two-component curable composition that can provide a cured product with the above-mentioned advantages without using highly toxic isocyanate. This can contribute to achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as Goal 12 "Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns" and Goal 11 "Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and inclusive, safe

[0014] Hereinafter, the polyoxyalkylene polymer having reactive silicon groups (A) will also be referred to as component (A), the epoxy resin curing agent (B) as component (B), and the (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C) as component (C).

[0015] (1-1. Polyoxyalkylene polymer having reactive silicon groups (A)) The polyoxyalkylene polymer (A) has a reactive silicon group represented by general formula (1). -Si(R) 3-a (X) a (1) In the formula, R represents a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. X represents a hydroxyl group or a hydrolyzable group. a represents 2 or 3.

[0016] The hydrocarbon group R preferably has 1 to 10 carbon atoms, more preferably 1 to 5, and even more preferably 1 to 3. Specific examples of R include methyl, ethyl, chloromethyl, methoxymethyl, and N,N-diethylaminomethyl groups, with methyl, ethyl, chloromethyl, and methoxymethyl groups being preferred, and methyl and methoxymethyl groups being more preferred. This configuration makes it easier to achieve both storage stability and reactivity.

[0017] Examples of X include hydroxyl groups, halogens, alkoxy groups, acyloxy groups, ketoximate groups, amino groups, amide groups, acid amide groups, aminooxy groups, mercapto groups, and alkenyloxy groups. Among these, alkoxy groups such as methoxy and ethoxy groups are more preferred due to their mild hydrolysis and ease of handling, with methoxy and ethoxy groups being particularly preferred. From the viewpoint of room-temperature reactivity, a in general formula (1) is preferably 2 or 3, and more preferably 2.

[0018] The reactive silicon groups of component (A) include, but are not limited to, trimethoxysilyl, triethoxysilyl, tris(2-propenyloxy)silyl, triacetoxysilyl, methyldimethoxysilyl, methyldiethoxysilyl, ethyldimethoxysilyl, (chloromethyl)dimethoxysilyl, (chloromethyl)diethoxysilyl, (methoxymethyl)dimethoxysilyl, (methoxymethyl)diethoxysilyl, (N,N-diethylaminomethyl)dimethoxysilyl, and (N,N-diethylaminomethyl)diethoxysilyl. Among these, methyldimethoxysilyl, trimethoxysilyl, triethoxysilyl, (chloromethyl)dimethoxysilyl, (methoxymethyl)dimethoxysilyl, (methoxymethyl)diethoxysilyl, and (N,N-diethylaminomethyl)dimethoxysilyl groups are preferred because they exhibit high activity and yield cured products with good mechanical properties. Since a highly rigid cured product can be obtained, a trimethoxysilyl group and a triethoxysilyl group are more preferred, and a trimethoxysilyl group is even more preferred.

[0019] Component (A) may have more than one reactive silicon group on average at one terminal site. Having more than one reactive silicon group on average at one terminal site means that component (A) contains a polyoxyalkylene having two or more reactive silicon groups at one terminal site as represented by the following general formula (4). That is, component (A) may contain only a polyoxyalkylene having two or more reactive silicon groups at one terminal site, or may contain both a polyoxyalkylene having two or more reactive silicon groups at one terminal site and a polyoxyalkylene having one reactive silicon group at one terminal site. Also, as the plurality of terminal sites of one molecule of polyoxyalkylene, there may be both a terminal site having two or more reactive silicon groups and a terminal site having one reactive silicon group. Furthermore, component (A) may contain a polyoxyalkylene that has, as a whole, more than one reactive silicon group on average at one terminal site but has a terminal site without a reactive silicon group.

[0020] The terminal site of component (A) is preferably represented by the general formula (4):

[0021] [Chemical formula]

[0022] (In formula (4), R 7 , R 9 are each independently a divalent linking group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms which may contain a hetero atom. R 8 , R 10 are each independently hydrogen or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms. n is an integer from 1 to 10. R 11 are each independently a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. X is each independently a hydroxyl group or a hydrolyzable group. c is an integer from 1 to 3.) R 7 、R 9This may be a divalent organic group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, which may contain an oxygen atom, or it may be a hydrocarbon group. The hydrocarbon group preferably has 1 to 4 carbon atoms, more preferably 1 to 3, and even more preferably 1 or 2. 7 Specific examples include CH2OCH2, CH2O, and CH2, with CH2OCH2 being preferred. 9 Specific examples include CH2 and CH2CH2, with CH2 being preferred.

[0023] R 8 , R 10 The number of carbon atoms in the hydrocarbon group is preferably 1 to 5, more preferably 1 to 3, and even more preferably 1 or 2. 8 , R 10 Specific examples include hydrogen atoms, methyl groups, and ethyl groups, preferably hydrogen atoms and methyl groups, and more preferably hydrogen atoms.

[0024] The terminal portion represented by general formula (4) is, in a particularly preferred embodiment, R 7 is CH2OCH2, and R 9 CH2 is, R 8 and R 10 Each of these is a hydrogen atom. n is preferably an integer from 1 to 5, more preferably an integer from 1 to 3, and even more preferably 1 or 2. However, n is not limited to a single value, and may be a mixture of multiple values.

[0025] The reactive silicon groups in component (A) preferably number more than 1.0 on average at each terminal site, more preferably 1.1 or more, even more preferably 1.5 or more, and even more preferably 2.0 or more. Furthermore, the number of reactive silicon groups in each terminal site preferably number 5.0 or less on average, and more preferably 3.0 or less.

[0026] The number of terminal sites containing more than one reactive silicon group in one molecule of component (A) is preferably 0.5 or more on average, more preferably 1.0 or more, even more preferably 1.1 or more, and even more preferably 1.5 or more. Furthermore, the number of such terminal sites is preferably 4.0 or less on average, and more preferably 3.0 or less.

[0027] Component (A) may have reactive silicon groups in locations other than the terminal portion, but it is preferable to have them only in the terminal portion, as this makes it easier to obtain a rubbery cured product with high elongation and low elastic modulus.

[0028] The average number of reactive silicon groups per molecule of component (A) is preferably more than 1.0, more preferably 1.2 or more, even more preferably 1.3 or more, even more preferably 1.5 or more, and particularly preferably 1.7 or more. Furthermore, the average number of reactive silicon groups per molecule is preferably 6.0 or less, more preferably 5.5 or less, and even more preferably 5.0 or less. If the average number of reactive silicon groups per molecule is more than 1.0, a high-strength cured product is more likely to be obtained. If the average number of reactive silicon groups per molecule is 6.0 or less, a cured product with high elongation is more likely to be obtained.

[0029] <Main chain structure> There are no particular restrictions on the main chain skeleton of component (A), and examples include polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene, polyoxybutylene, polyoxytetramethylene, polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymer, and polyoxypropylene-polyoxybutylene copolymer.

A number-average molecular weight of 3,000 or more is preferable in terms of manufacturing cost because it prevents the amount of reactive silicon groups introduced from becoming too large. A number-average molecular weight of 100,000 or less is preferable in terms of workability because it prevents the viscosity from becoming too high.

[0031] The molecular weight of component (A) can also be expressed as the end-group-reduced molecular weight, which is determined by directly measuring the end-group concentration of the organic polymer precursor before the introduction of reactive silicon groups using titration analysis based on the principles of the hydroxyl value measurement method specified in JIS K 1557 and the iodine value measurement method specified in JIS K 0070, and considering the structure of the organic polymer (degree of branching determined by the polymerization initiator used). Alternatively, the end-group-reduced molecular weight of component (A) can be determined by creating a calibration curve between the number-average molecular weight obtained by general GPC measurement of the organic polymer precursor and the above-mentioned end-group-reduced molecular weight, and then converting the number-average molecular weight obtained by GPC of component (A) to the end-group-reduced molecular weight.

[0032] The molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) of component (A) is not particularly limited, but is preferably narrow, preferably less than 2.0, more preferably 1.6 or less, even more preferably 1.5 or less, particularly preferably 1.4 or less, and most preferably 1.2 or less.

[0036] In 100% by weight of component (A), component (A), which has a linear main chain structure and alkoxy group termini, is preferably present in an amount of 75% to 95% by weight, and more preferably in an amount of 80% to 90% by weight. This further improves the tear strength.

[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, component (A) may further include (iii): (iii) A polyoxyalkylene polymer (A) having a linear chain with a reactive silicon group at only one end and an alkoxy group end (preferably a dialkoxy group end).

[0038] In (iii) above, the average number of reactive silicon groups per molecule of component (A) is preferably 0.4 or more, more preferably 0.5 or more, even more preferably 0.6 or more, and particularly preferably 0.7 or more. An example of a polyoxyalkylene polymer (A) as described in (iii) above is the polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-2) described in the examples.

[0041] Component (A) may be included not only in the first agent but also in the second agent. If component (C) is solid at room temperature, and liquid component (A) is included in the second agent, then component (C) can be dissolved in component (A).

[0079] The other monomers constituting the main chain of component (C) are not particularly limited, and various (meth)acrylic acid monomers can be used. In this specification, (meth)acrylic acid monomers mean a general term for (meth)acrylic acid, (meth)acrylic acid ester monomers, and other monomers having a structure derived from (meth)acrylic acid.

[0080] Specifically, (meth)acrylate monomers include methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate, n-propyl (meth)acrylate, isopropyl (meth)acrylate, n-butyl (meth)acrylate, isobutyl (meth)acrylate, tert-butyl (meth)acrylate, n-pentyl (meth)acrylate, n-hexyl (meth)acrylate, cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, n-heptyl (meth)acrylate, n-octyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate, nonyl (meth)acrylate, decyl (meth)acrylate, dodecyl (meth)acrylate, phenyl (meth)acrylate, toluyl (meth)acrylate, benzyl (meth)acrylate, 2-methoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, and 3-methoxyethyl (meth)acrylate.

[0081] Other usable (meth)acrylic acid monomers include, for example, (meth)acrylic acids such as acrylic acid and methacrylic acid; monomers containing an amide group such as N-methylolacrylamide and N-methylolmethacrylamide; and monomers containing a nitrogen group such as diethylaminoethyl acrylate and diethylaminoethyl methacrylate.

[0082] As component (C), a polymer obtained by copolymerizing a (meth)acrylic acid monomer with a vinyl monomer copolymerizable therewith may also be used. The vinyl monomer is not particularly limited and includes, for example, styrene monomers such as styrene, vinyltoluene, α-methylstyrene, chlorostyrene, styrenesulfonic acid and its salts; fluorine-containing vinyl monomers such as perfluoroethylene, perfluoropropylene, and vinylidene fluoride; silicon-containing vinyl monomers such as vinyltrimethoxysilane and vinyltriethoxysilane; maleic anhydride, maleic acid, monoalkyl and dialkyl esters of maleic acid; fumaric acid, monoalkyl and dialkyl esters of fumaric acid; maleimide, methylmaleimide, ethylmaleimide, propylmaleimide, butylmaleimide, hexylmaleimide, oc Examples include maleimide monomers such as cylmaleimide, dodecylmaleimide, stearylmaleimide, phenylmaleimide, and cyclohexylmaleimide; nitrile group-containing vinyl monomers such as acrylonitrile and methacrylonitrile; amide group-containing vinyl monomers such as acrylamide and methacrylamide; vinyl ester monomers such as vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, vinyl pivalate, vinyl benzoate, and vinyl cinnamate; alkenyl monomers such as ethylene and propylene; conjugated diene monomers such as butadiene and isoprene; and vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, allyl chloride, and allyl alcohol.

[0083] Component (C) may have a reactive silicon group represented by general formula (1) as described in component (A). In component (C), a in general formula (1) is preferably 2 or 3, and more preferably 2, from the viewpoint of room temperature reactivity. The method for introducing the reactive silicon group into component (C) is not particularly limited, and for example, the following method can be used. Method (iv): A compound having a polymerizable unsaturated group and a reactive silicon group is copolymerized with the monomer described above. Using this method, the reactive silicon group tends to be randomly introduced into the main chain of the polymer. Method (v): A mercaptosilane compound having a reactive silicon group is used as a chain transfer agent to polymerize a (meth)acrylic acid ester polymer. This method allows the reactive silicon group to be introduced to the polymer ends. Method (vi): A compound having a polymerizable unsaturated group and a reactive functional group (V group) is copolymerized, and then reacted with a compound having a reactive silicon group and a functional group that reacts with the V group. Specifically, examples include copolymerizing 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate and then reacting it with an isocyanate silane having a reactive silicon group, or copolymerizing glycidyl acrylate and then reacting it with an aminosilane compound having a reactive silicon group. Method (vii): The terminal functional groups of (meth)acrylic acid ester polymers synthesized by living radical polymerization are modified to introduce reactive silicon groups. (meth)acrylic acid ester polymers obtained by living radical polymerization readily accept the introduction of functional groups at the polymer ends, and by modifying them, reactive silicon groups can be introduced at the polymer ends.

[0084] For example, compounds having a polymerizable unsaturated group and a reactive silicon group used in method (iv) include (meth)acrylate 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl, (meth)acrylate 3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl, (meth)acrylate 3-(methyldimethoxysilyl)propyl, (meth)acrylate 2-(trimethoxysilyl)ethyl, (meth)acrylate 2-(methyldimethoxysilyl)ethyl, (meth)acrylate (trimethoxysilyl)methyl, (meth)acrylate (triethoxysilyl)methyl, (meth)acrylate (methyldimethoxysilyl)methyl, and (meth)acrylate 3-((methoxymethyl)dimethoxysilyl)propyl. From the viewpoint of availability, (meth)acrylate 3-(methyldimethoxysilyl)propyl and (meth)acrylate 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl are particularly preferred.

[0085] The number-average molecular weight of component (C) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 500 to 50,000, more preferably 500 to 30,000, and particularly preferably 1,000 to 10,000, based on polystyrene-equivalent molecular weight measured by GPC.

[0086] The glass transition temperature of component (C) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 50°C or higher, more preferably 60°C or higher, even more preferably 80°C or higher, and particularly preferably 100°C or higher. If the glass transition temperature of component (C), which is an acrylic resin, is within the above range, the surface tackiness and stain resistance will be improved when the curable composition is used as a coating film. The upper limit of the glass transition temperature is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of handling, for example, 180°C or lower is preferred.

[0087] In the aforementioned two-component curable composition, the content of component (C) is preferably 5% to 60% by weight, and more preferably 30% to 50% by weight, of the total 100% by weight of the liquid components (A) and (C), from the viewpoint of achieving manageable viscosity and high concentration. Alternatively, if the aforementioned two-component curable composition contains a liquid component (F) described later, the content of component (C) is preferably 5% to 60% by weight, and more preferably 30% to 50% by weight, of the total 100% by weight of the liquid components (F) and (C).

[0088] (1-4. Aminosilane (D)) The two-component curable composition preferably further contains aminosilane (D). The inclusion of aminosilane (D) in the two-component curable composition makes it easier to achieve both improved tear strength of the cured product and reduced costs. Hereinafter, aminosilane (D) will also be referred to as component (D).

[0089] Examples of component (D) include 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, and N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropylmethyldimethoxysilane. These may be used individually or in combination of two or more. Commercially available products such as Silkquest A-1120 (manufactured by Momentive Performance Materials Japan LLC), Silkquest A-1110 (manufactured by Momentive Performance Materials Japan LLC), KBM-602 (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.), KBM-603 (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.), and KBM-903 (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.) may also be used.

[0090] In 100% by weight of the two-component curable composition, component (D) is preferably present in an amount of 1% to 5% by weight, and more preferably in an amount of 1% to 3% by weight. Within the above range of component (D) content, it is easier to achieve both improved tear strength of the cured product and reduced costs. Component (D) is preferably contained in a separate solution from component (C), specifically in the first agent.

[0091] (1-5. Hydroxyl group-containing polyoxyalkylene polymer (F)) The two-component curable composition preferably further contains a hydroxyl group-containing polyoxyalkylene polymer (F). In the two-component curable composition, the hydroxyl group-containing polyoxyalkylene polymer (F) functions as a plasticizer. By including the hydroxyl group-containing polyoxyalkylene polymer (F) in the two-component curable composition, it is possible to reduce the viscosity and cost of the composition, as well as adjust the properties such as hardness and elastic modulus of the cured product obtained from the composition. Hereinafter, the hydroxyl group-containing polyoxyalkylene polymer (F) will also be referred to as component (F).

[0092] Component (F) may be included in the first agent, in the second agent, or in both the first and second agents. Since component (F) is used as a plasticizer for component (A), it is preferable that it does not contain any groups that can be crosslinked at room temperature, such as the reactive silicon groups present in component (A). If component (C) is solid at room temperature, and liquid component (F) is included in the second agent, component (C) can be dissolved in component (F).

[0093] The main chain of component (F) preferably has 60% or more, more preferably 80% or more, of the monomer units constituting the main chain having repeating units represented by general formula (8): -R f -O- (8) (In formula (8), R f (Although it is a divalent hydrocarbon group, it is most preferable when the majority of it is an alkylene group having 3 or 4 carbon atoms.) R fSpecific examples include -CH(CH3)CH2-, -CH(C2H5)CH2-, -C(CH3)2CH2-, -CH2CH2CH2CH2-, etc. The molecular chain of component (F) may consist of only one type of repeating unit, or it may consist of two or more types of repeating units. f -CH(CH3)CH2- is particularly preferred.

[0094] Component (F) is not particularly limited, but specific examples include polyoxyethylene, polyoxypropylene, polyoxybutylene, polyoxytetramethylene, polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymer, and polyoxypropylene-polyoxybutylene copolymer. Among these, polyoxypropylene is preferred from the viewpoint of suppressing bleeding that occurs over time.

[0095] Since component (F) acts as a plasticizer for component (A), its number-average molecular weight must be smaller than that of component (A). The number-average molecular weight of component (F) is preferably 300 or more, more preferably 800 or more, and even more preferably 1,000 or more. The upper limit is preferably 15,000 or less, more preferably 10,000 or less, even more preferably 8,000 or less, and particularly preferably 5,000 or less. When the number-average molecular weight of component (F) is 300 or more, it has the effect of being less volatile. Also, when the number-average molecular weight of component (F) is 15,000 or less, it has the effect of making the two-component curable composition easier to reduce viscosity. The number-average molecular weight of component (F) is the molecular weight corresponding to the number-average molecular weight obtained by end-group analysis.

[0096] A smaller molecular weight distribution of component (F) is preferable, as it results in lower viscosity. For example, the molecular weight distribution of component (F) should be such that Mw / Mn is 1.6 or less, preferably 1.5 or less. The molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) of component (F) is measured using GPC (polystyrene equivalent).

[0097] The content of component (F) is preferably 5 parts by weight or more, more preferably 10 parts by weight or more, and even more preferably 20 parts by weight or more, based on 100 parts by weight of the total of components (A) and (C). The upper limit is preferably 150 parts by weight or less, more preferably 100 parts by weight or less, and even more preferably 50 parts by weight or less. When the content of component (F) is 5 parts by weight or more, its effect as a plasticizer can be fully exhibited. Furthermore, when the content of component (F) is 150 parts by weight or less, an appropriate mechanical strength can be obtained in the cured product. Note that component (F) can also be blended during polymer production.

[0098] Component (F) may be produced by a conventional polymerization method using caustic alkali, but it may also be produced by a polymerization method using a complex metal cyanide complex such as zinc hexacyanocobaltate as a catalyst.

[0099] (1-6. Inorganic fillers) The aforementioned two-component curable composition preferably further contains an inorganic filler. Since the inorganic filler is an inexpensive material, it enables cost reduction.

Titanium dioxide is also preferred from the viewpoint of weather resistance, and rutile-type titanium dioxide is more preferred. These inorganic fillers may be used individually or in combination of two or more types.

[0101] The inorganic filler content is preferably 20 to 300 parts by weight, more preferably 20 to 250 parts by weight, even more preferably 25 to 200 parts by weight, particularly preferably 30 to 180 parts by weight, and especially preferably 28 to 200 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the total of components (A) and (C). If the inorganic filler content is within the above range, it is easier to achieve both low viscosity and low cost for the two-component curable composition.

[0102] The inorganic filler may be included in the first agent, in the second agent, or in both the first and second agents.

Furthermore, if the amount of dehydrating agent is 3.0 parts by weight or less per 100 parts by weight of the total of components (A) and (C), it is easier to achieve both storage stability and cost reduction.

[0118] <Adhesive-granting resin> The aforementioned two-component curable composition may contain a tackifying resin to enhance adhesion and bonding to the substrate, or as needed. There are no particular restrictions on the tackifying resin used; commonly used resins can be used.

[0119] Specific examples include terpene resins, aromatically modified terpene resins, hydrogenated terpene resins, terpene-phenol resins, phenol resins, modified phenol resins, xylene-phenol resins, cyclopentadiene-phenol resins, coumarone-indene resins, rosin resins, rosin ester resins, hydrogenated rosin ester resins, xylene resins, low molecular weight polystyrene resins, styrene copolymer resins, styrene block copolymers and their hydrogenated products, petroleum resins (e.g., C5 hydrocarbon resins, C9 hydrocarbon resins, C5C9 hydrocarbon copolymer resins, etc.), hydrogenated petroleum resins, DCPD resins, etc. These may be used individually or in combination of two or more.

[0121] <Low molecular weight plasticizer> A low molecular weight plasticizer can be added to the aforementioned two-component curable composition. Specifically, preferred low molecular weight plasticizers include diisonoyl phthalate, 2-ethoxyethanol, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, and diisodecyl phthalate. These low molecular weight plasticizers may be used individually or in combination of two or more. If component (C) is solid at room temperature, a liquid low molecular weight plasticizer can be dissolved in the low molecular weight plasticizer if it is contained in the second agent.

[0122] The content of the low molecular weight plasticizer in the two-component curable composition is not particularly limited, but is preferably, for example, 5 to 150 parts by weight, more preferably 20 to 100 parts by weight, and even more preferably 30 to 80 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the total of components (A) and (C). With this configuration, it is easy to achieve both low viscosity in the two-component curable composition and high tear strength in the cured product.

[0123] (1-10.Applications) The aforementioned two-component curable composition can be used in a variety of applications, including waterproofing materials, building elastic sealing materials, siding board sealing materials, double-glazed glass sealing materials, vehicle sealing materials, and other building and industrial sealing materials; electrical and electronic component materials such as back-surface sealants for solar cells; electrical insulating materials such as insulating coatings for wires and cables; adhesives, elastic adhesives, contact adhesives, tile adhesives, reactive hot-melt adhesives, structural adhesives, heat dissipation adhesives; paints, powder coatings, coating materials, foams, sealing materials such as can lids, heat dissipation sheets, electrical and electronic potting agents, films, gaskets, marine deck caulking, casting materials, various molding materials, artificial marble, and sealing materials for rust prevention and waterproofing of wired glass or laminated glass edges (cut sections); vibration isolation, vibration damping, sound insulation, and seismic isolation materials used in automobiles, ships, home appliances, etc.; and liquid sealing materials used in automobile parts, electrical components, and various machine parts.

[0124] [2. Cured product] A cured product according to one embodiment of the present invention is formed by curing the above-described two-component curable composition. That is, the cured product is formed by curing the above-described two-component curable composition. In one embodiment of the present invention, the cured product is formed by curing the above-described two-component curable composition at room temperature without heating.

[0125] The tensile elongation of the cured product is preferably 200% or more, more preferably 300% or more, even more preferably 350% or more, and particularly preferably 400% or more. A tensile elongation of 300% or more of the cured product provides the effect of being resistant to tearing. The greater the tensile elongation of the cured product, the better, and there is no particular upper limit, but for example, it is 900% or less. The tensile elongation of the cured product can be measured by the method described in the examples below.

[0126] The tensile strength of the cured product is preferably 1.8 MPa or higher, more preferably 1.9 MPa or higher, even more preferably 2.0 MPa or higher, and particularly preferably 2.5 MPa or higher. A tensile strength of 1.8 MPa or higher provides the effect of being resistant to tearing. A higher tensile strength of the cured product is preferable, and there is no particular upper limit, but for example, it is 10 MPa or lower. The tensile strength of the cured product can be measured by the method described in the examples below.

[0127] The tear strength of the cured material is preferably 9 N / mm or more, more preferably 10 N / mm or more, even more preferably 11 N / mm or more, and particularly preferably 12 N / mm or more. A tear strength of 9 N / mm or more of the cured material provides the effect of being difficult to tear. A higher tear strength of the cured material is better, and there is no particular upper limit, but for example, it is 40 N / mm or less. The tear strength of the cured material can be measured by the method described in the examples below.

[0128] [3. Waterproof material] In one embodiment, the curable composition of the present invention can be used as a waterproofing material. Because this waterproofing material forms a seamless coating film and offers high reliability in waterproofing, it is particularly useful as a breathable coating waterproofing material for roofs that require high waterproofing performance. For example, in underground waterproofing materials such as underground parking lots where weather resistance is not required, it is cost-effective to use a two-component curable composition waterproofing material containing a (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C) that does not contain structural units derived from (meth)acrylic acid ester monomers having a hindered amine structure and / or (meth)acrylic acid ester monomers having a benzotriazole structure. Furthermore, for waterproofing materials on outdoor ceilings, rooftops, verandas, water channels, garages, etc., it is preferable to use a two-component curable composition waterproofing material containing a (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C) that contains structural units derived from (meth)acrylic acid ester monomers having a hindered amine structure and / or (meth)acrylic acid ester monomers having a benzotriazole structure.

[0129] Waterproofing materials can be used as both a waterproofing layer and a topcoat layer. The curable composition according to one embodiment of the present invention combines the performance of both a waterproofing layer and a topcoat layer. The waterproofing layer has the physical properties of the JIS A6021 urethane rubber high-elongation type standard, which has the longest track record, and the topcoat layer needs weather resistance to suppress deterioration due to sunlight and rainwater. However, with current technology, there is no material that can achieve both the JIS A6021 urethane rubber high-elongation type standard and weather resistance for the waterproofing layer, so a structure in which the waterproofing layer and topcoat layer are laminated is used.

[0130] In one embodiment of the present invention, the curable composition can be applied as a topcoat and laminated onto a conventionally known waterproof layer. That is, the curable composition according to one embodiment of the present invention has an application as a topcoat material. By laminating the curable composition as a topcoat on top of an inexpensive waterproof material or a waterproof material with excellent adhesion on the lower layer of the waterproof layer, a waterproof material with excellent cost-effectiveness or workability can be obtained.

[0131] Furthermore, in another embodiment of the curable composition of the present invention, it can also be used as a waterproofing layer. When the curable composition is used as a waterproofing layer, it has excellent weather resistance and other properties, so there is no need to laminate another topcoat layer. That is, the curable composition of the present invention may be a topcoat-free waterproof coating material in which no other layer is laminated on a waterproofing layer containing the above-described two-component curable composition. In this specification, "waterproof coating material" means that the above-described two-component curable composition has been applied to a substrate and cured. Also, "topcoat-free" means that no topcoat has been applied on the waterproof coating material. Furthermore, a waterproof coating material in which a topcoat-free waterproof coating layer containing the above-described two-component curable composition is laminated on a waterproof coating layer that does not contain the above-described two-component curable composition is also included in one embodiment of the present invention.

[0132] The aforementioned waterproofing material may contain, in addition to the cured product described above, any other components that waterproofing materials generally contain. Such components may be one type or two or more types. Furthermore, the content of such components is not particularly limited and can be appropriately determined by those skilled in the art as long as the effects of the present invention are achieved.

[0133] [4. Method for manufacturing waterproof structures] A method for manufacturing a waterproof structure according to one embodiment of the present invention includes the step of applying the above-described two-component curable composition to a building substrate. Since the two-component curable composition can provide a cured product with improved tackiness, the application process to the substrate can be carried out quickly. Furthermore, since the two-component curable composition can provide a cured product with excellent tensile properties and tear strength, applying the two-component curable composition to a building substrate can provide a waterproof structure with excellent waterproofing function.

[0134] The method for applying the two-component curable composition to the substrate of a building is not particularly limited, but examples include applying the two-component curable composition directly to the substrate of the building, or applying it after a primer has been applied to the substrate.

[0135] A method for manufacturing a waterproof structure according to one embodiment of the present invention involves not applying a topcoat to the coating film obtained by curing the above-mentioned two-component curable composition. By not applying a topcoat to the coating film obtained by curing the two-component curable composition, it is possible to shorten the construction period and reduce labor costs by eliminating the topcoat process. This makes it possible to obtain the above-mentioned topcoat-free coating waterproof material.

[0136] A method for manufacturing a waterproof structure according to one embodiment of the present invention involves applying a waterproof layer with a thickness of 1 to 4 mm, without applying the aforementioned topcoat on top of the waterproof layer. The waterproof layer may be the aforementioned topcoat-free coating waterproof material. In other words, the process involves forming a waterproof layer with a thickness of 1 to 4 mm, without laminating any other layer on top of the waterproof layer. Here, the waterproof layer is subjected to conditions of 63°C, 50% relative humidity, and 125 mW / cm² illuminance. 2 In a weathering test in which a cycle of holding the material for 1 hour and 58 minutes followed by spraying it with a shower of pure water for 2 minutes is repeated, the time until cracks are observed can exceed 1000 hours. By not applying a topcoat to such a waterproof layer, weather resistance, construction time reduction, and labor cost reduction can be improved. The specific method of the weathering test is described in the examples.

[0137] The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the claims. Embodiments obtained by appropriately combining the technical means disclosed in different embodiments are also included in the technical scope of the present invention.

This constituted one cycle, and this cycle was repeated until cracks were observed. The presence or absence of cracks was checked every 70 hours. The time until cracks were observed was measured as the crack time.

[0148] [Synthesis Example 1] An example of the synthesis of polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-1) is shown below.

[0149] Using a polyoxypropylene triol with a number-average molecular weight of approximately 4,500 as an initiator, propylene oxide was polymerized with a zinc hexacyanocobaltate glyme complex catalyst to obtain polyoxypropylene (P-1) with a number-average molecular weight of 24,600 (end-group equivalent molecular weight of 17,400) and a molecular weight distribution Mw / Mn = 1.31, with hydroxyl groups at the ends. 1.2 molar equivalents of sodium methoxide in a 28% methanol solution were added to the hydroxyl groups of the obtained polyoxypropylene (P-1). After removing methanol by vacuum defoliation, an additional 1.5 molar equivalents of allyl chloride were added to the hydroxyl groups of polyoxypropylene (P-1) to convert the terminal hydroxyl groups to allyl groups. Unreacted allyl chloride was removed by vacuum defoliation. The obtained unpurified polyoxypropylene was mixed with n-hexane and water and stirred. Water was removed by centrifugation, and the metal salts in the polymer were removed by vacuum defoliation of the hexane from the resulting hexane solution. From the above steps, polyoxypropylene (Q-1) having allyl groups at its termini was obtained. To 500 g of this polyoxypropylene (Q-1), 50 μL of platinum divinyldisiloxane complex solution (3% by weight isopropanol solution in terms of platinum) was added, and 6.4 g of methyldimethoxysilane was slowly added dropwise while stirring. After reacting at 100°C for 2 hours, the unreacted methyldimethoxysilane was removed by distillation under reduced pressure to obtain polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-1), a polyoxypropylene with a number average molecular weight of 26,200 and methyldimethoxysilyl groups at its termini. It was found that polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-1) has an average of 0.7 methyldimethoxysilyl groups at each termini and an average of 2.2 groups per molecule.

[0150] [Synthesis Example 2] The following shows an example of the synthesis of a polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-2).

[0151] Using butanol as an initiator, propylene oxide was polymerized with a zinc hexacyanocobaltate-grime complex catalyst to obtain polyoxypropylene (P-2) with a number-average molecular weight of 7,800 (end-group equivalent molecular weight of 5,000) and a molecular weight distribution Mw / Mn = 1.48, with a hydroxyl group at one end. Subsequently, 1.2 molar equivalents of sodium methoxide in a 28% methanol solution were added to the hydroxyl groups of this polyoxypropylene (P-2). After removing methanol by vacuum defoliation, 2.0 molar equivalents of allyl chloride were added to the hydroxyl groups of polyoxypropylene (P-2) to convert the terminal hydroxyl groups to allyl groups, and the unreacted allyl chloride was removed by vacuum defoliation. The obtained unpurified polyoxypropylene was mixed with n-hexane and water and stirred, then the water was removed by centrifugation, and the metal salts in the polymer were removed by vacuum defoliation of the hexane from the resulting hexane solution. From the above steps, polyoxypropylene (Q-2) having an allyl group at only one end was obtained. To 500 g of the obtained polyoxypropylene (Q-2), 50 μL of platinum divinyldisiloxane complex (a 2-propanol solution with 3% by weight of platinum) was added, and 9.5 g of methyldimethoxysilane was slowly added dropwise while stirring. After reacting the mixed solution at 100°C for 2 hours, the unreacted methyldimethoxysilane was removed under reduced pressure to obtain polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-2), which is polyoxypropylene having a methyldimethoxysilyl group at only one end. It was found that polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-2) has an average of 0.8 methyldimethoxysilyl groups at only one end.

[0152] [Synthesis Example 3] The following shows an example of the synthesis of a polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-3).

[0153] Using polyoxypropylene glycol with a number-average molecular weight of approximately 4,800 as an initiator, propylene oxide was polymerized with a zinc hexacyanocobaltate grime complex catalyst to obtain polyoxypropylene (P-3) with a number-average molecular weight of 28,000 (end-group equivalent molecular weight of 18,000) and a molecular weight distribution Mw / Mn = 1.21, having hydroxyl groups at both ends. Subsequently, 1.0 molar equivalent of sodium methoxide in a 28% methanol solution was added to the hydroxyl groups of this polyoxypropylene (P-3). After removing methanol by vacuum defoliation, 1.0 molar equivalent of allyl glycidyl ether was added to the hydroxyl groups of polyoxypropylene (P-3) and the reaction was carried out at 130°C for 2 hours. Then, methanol was removed by adding 0.28 molar equivalents of sodium methoxide in a methanol solution, and further 1.79 molar equivalents of allyl chloride were added to convert the terminal hydroxyl groups to allyl groups. The obtained unpurified polyoxypropylene was mixed with n-hexane and water and stirred. After removing the water by centrifugation, the hexane in the resulting hexane solution was deflorated under reduced pressure to remove the metal salts from the polymer. This process yielded polyoxypropylene (Q-3) having multiple carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds at its ends. It was found that polyoxypropylene (Q-3) had an average of 2.0 carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds at each end.

[0154] To 500 g of the obtained polyoxypropylene (Q-3), 50 μL of a platinum divinyldisiloxane complex solution (3% by weight of isopropanol solution in terms of platinum) was added, and 9.6 g of methyldimethoxysilane was slowly added dropwise while stirring. After reacting the mixed solution at 100°C for 2 hours, the unreacted methyldimethoxysilane was removed by distillation under reduced pressure to obtain polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-3), a polyoxypropylene with a number average molecular weight of 28,500 and multiple methyldimethoxysilyl groups at its terminals. It was found that polyoxyalkylene polymer (A-3) has an average of 1.7 methyldimethoxysilyl groups at each terminal and an average of 3.4 groups per molecule.

[0155] [Synthesis Example 4] The following is an example of the synthesis of (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C-1).

[0156] To 48 g of isobutyl alcohol heated to 105°C, a solution containing 8 g of methyl methacrylate, 8 g of 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl methacrylate, 15 g of stearyl methacrylate, 41 g of isobornyl methacrylate, 20 g of glycidyl methacrylate, 1 g of γ-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, and 7.0 g of azobis-2-methylbutyronitrile (manufactured by Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd., V-59) dissolved in 25 g of isobutyl alcohol was added dropwise over 4 hours. This yielded an isobutyl alcohol solution of (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C-1). It was found that (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C-1) has an average of one methyldimethoxysilyl group per molecule.

[0157] [Synthesis Examples 5 to 7] (C-6) was obtained from (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer (C-2) using the same method as in Synthesis Example 4, except that the monomer composition listed in Table 1 was used. The units of the numerical values ​​in the specific compositions in Table 1 are in grams. Note that for component (C) where the number average molecular weight is not listed, it means that the number average molecular weight has not been measured.

The degassed mixture was then poured into a mold (a mold consisting of a Teflon® sheet surrounded by a 2 mm thick backer) and the thickness was uniformly spread to 2 mm using a spatula. These operations were carried out to be completed within 10 minutes.

[0162] Subsequently, curing was performed under conditions of 23°C and 50% RH. Tensile properties, tear strength, tackiness, and weather resistance were evaluated for the cured material (sheet) obtained after 7 days of curing. The results are shown in Table 2.

The first agent was then prepared by adding the amounts of component (B) JEFFADD® MW-760, diluent EXXSOL D80, component (D) Silke A-1120, vinylsilane coupling agent A-171, and curing catalyst Sn catalyst: NEOSTANN U-810 as shown in Table 2, stirring by hand.

[0167] A solution of component (F) and (C-3) as component (C) in isobutyl alcohol was blended in a solid content ratio (by weight) of 36:35, and the isobutyl alcohol was removed under reduced pressure and heating to obtain a clear, viscous liquid. The obtained liquid was mixed with (A-3) as component (A), A-171 as a vinylsilane coupling agent, and calcium carbonate (Nanox #30) and carbon black (Asahi Thermal) as inorganic fillers in the amounts shown in Table 2, and stirred by hand. The mixture was then passed through a ceramic triple roll three times to prepare a second agent.

[0168] [Example 6] The first agent was prepared by adding the amounts of components (A) (A-1) and (A-3) and titanium dioxide (R-820) as shown in Table 3, stirring by hand, and then passing the mixture through a ceramic three-roll system three times. After adding the amount of anti-sagging agent (R974) as shown in Table 3, the mixture was stirred in a stirrer (model 5XDMV-01-r, model number 13-A16, manufactured by Dalton) at 23°C, 90 rpm, and 10 minutes. Then, the amounts of component (B) JEFFADD (registered trademark) MW-760, the diluent EXXSOL D80, component (D) Silke A-1120, the vinylsilane coupling agent A-171, and the curing catalyst Sn catalyst: NEOSTANN U-810 as shown in Table 3, and stirring by hand.

[0169] A solution of component (F) and (C-3) as component (C) in isobutyl alcohol was blended in a solid content ratio (by weight) of 36:35, and the isobutyl alcohol was removed under reduced pressure and heating to obtain a clear, viscous liquid. The obtained liquid was mixed with (A-3) as component (A), A-171 as a vinylsilane coupling agent, and calcium carbonate (Nanox #30) and carbon black (Asahi Thermal) as inorganic fillers in the amounts listed in Table 3, and stirred by hand. The mixture was then passed through a ceramic three-roll system three times, and the amount of anti-sagging agent (R974) listed in Table 3 was added. The mixture was then mixed in a stirrer (model 5XDMV-01-r, model number 13-A16, manufactured by Dalton) at 23°C, 90 rpm, for 10 minutes to prepare the second agent.

[0170] For the preparation of sheets in Examples 4 to 6, the first and second agents were added to disposable cups in the amounts listed in Tables 2 and 3, respectively, and stirred by hand. The mixture was then mixed and degassed using a Super Mixer (Sinky Co., Ltd., ARE-250). Specifically, mixing and degassing were performed by stirring at 500 rpm for 20 seconds, 1500 rpm for 20 seconds, and 2000 rpm for 40 seconds, followed by degassing at 1500 rpm for 40 seconds. The degassed mixture was then poured into a mold (a mold consisting of a Teflon® sheet surrounded by a 2 mm thick backer) and the thickness was uniformly spread to 2 mm using a spatula. These operations were completed within 10 minutes.

[0171] Subsequently, curing was performed under conditions of 23°C and 50% RH. Tensile properties, tear strength, tackiness, and weather resistance were evaluated for the cured material (sheet) obtained after 7 days of curing. The results are shown in Tables 2 and 3.

[0172] [Evaluation Results] Tables 2 and 3 show the compositions and evaluation results of the examples and comparative examples. The units of the numerical values ​​showing the compositions in Tables 2 and 3 are grams.

[0173] [Table 2]

[0174] [Table 3]

[0175] Tables 2 and 3 show that the curable compositions of Examples 1 to 6, which used (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymers (C) having glycidyl and hydroxyl structures, exhibited greater tear strength when cured compared to the comparative examples. In other words, one embodiment of the present invention demonstrates that a curable composition can be provided that yields a cured product with improved tear strength. On the other hand, the cured compositions of Comparative Examples 1 to 3, which used (meth)acrylic acid ester copolymers (C) without glycidyl or hydroxyl structures, showed inferior tear strength compared to Examples 1 to 6. [Industrial applicability]

[0176] A multi-component curable composition according to one aspect of the present invention can provide a cured product with excellent tear strength and can therefore be used in waterproofing materials and the like.
