Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to coating compositions and laminates. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, in the field of various packaging materials, various functions such as gas barrier properties, retort resistance (hot water resistance), etc., have been required. Therefore, as packaging materials, for example, laminates in which a plurality of films having various functions are laminated are used.

[0003] More specifically, a laminate including a substrate, a resin coating film obtained from a primer, an ink layer, an adhesive layer, and a sealant layer has been proposed as a laminate. Also, as a primer for forming a resin coating film, for example, a primer has been proposed in which methyl methacrylate (MMA), acrylonitrile (AN), β-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (β-HEMA), styrene (St), butyl acrylate (BA), and methacrylic acid (MAA) are copolymerized to prepare a base solution, and a trimethylolpropane adduct of xylylene diisocyanate (XDI-TMP) as a curing agent is mixed into the obtained base solution (for example, see Patent Document 1 (Comparative Example Primer 4)).

[0004] It has also been proposed to further incorporate 5-(1,5-dioxotetrahydro-3-furanyl)-3-methyl-3-cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride into the above primer (see, for example, Patent Document 1 (Primer 4 in Example)).

[0005] Furthermore, it has also been proposed to use a mixed solvent of methyl ethyl ketone, ethyl acetate, and propylene glycol monomethyl ether as the solvent in the above-mentioned primer (see, for example, Patent Document 1 (each of the Examples and Comparative Examples)). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0007] On the other hand, in the field of coatings, there is a demand for the use of alkyl esters alone as solvents in order to improve handling and workability.

[0125] In addition, when the monomer composition contains an aromatic vinyl monomer, the content ratio of the aromatic vinyl monomer is appropriately set so that the glass transition temperature of the acrylic polyol is within the range described below.For example, the content ratio of the aromatic vinyl monomer is, for example, 1 part by mass or more, preferably 20 parts by mass or more, and for example, 50 parts by mass or less, preferably 40 parts by mass or less, based on 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the monomer composition.

[0126] The acrylic polyol can be obtained, for example, by mixing the above-mentioned monomer composition with a polymerization initiator in a solvent and polymerizing the monomer composition.

[0127] The solvent is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include the above-mentioned alkyl esters. A preferred example of the solvent is ethyl acetate.

[0128] The polymerization initiator is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include water-soluble initiators, oil-soluble initiators, and redox initiators, and preferably water-soluble initiators and oil-soluble initiators.

[0131] These polymerization initiators can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0132] The mixing ratio of the polymerization initiator is appropriately set depending on the purpose and application.

[0136] The polymerization time is, for example, 1 hour or more, preferably 2 hours or more, and for example, 30 hours or less, preferably 20 hours or less.

[0137] In the polymerization of the polymer composition, known additives may be added from the viewpoint of improving the production stability.

[0139] The amount of additive and the timing of addition are appropriately determined depending on the purpose and application.

[0140] As a result, an acrylic polyol is obtained as a polymer of the monomer composition.

[0141] The acrylic polyol may also be obtained as a solution in the above solvent.

[0142] When the acrylic polyol is obtained as a solution, the solids concentration of the solution is, for example, 3 mass % or more, preferably 5 mass % or more, and for example, less than 100 mass %, preferably 90 mass % or less.

[0144] The glass transition temperature of the acrylic polyol is calculated by a known method based on the formulation of the monomer composition and the FOX equation.

[0149] Other macropolyols include, for example, polyether polyols, polyester polyols, polycarbonate polyols, polyurethane polyols, epoxy polyols, vegetable oil polyols, polyolefin polyols, and polymerizable monomer-modified polyols.

[0150] These other macropolyols can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0151] The low molecular weight polyol is an organic compound having two or more hydroxyl groups in the molecule and having a molecular weight of 50 or more and 400 or less, preferably 300 or less.

[0153] These low molecular weight polyols can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0154] The content of the optional components is appropriately set depending on the purpose and application.

[0155] For example, from the viewpoint of gas barrier properties, the content ratio of other macropolyols is, for example, less than 50 parts by mass, preferably 40 parts by mass or less, more preferably 30 parts by mass or less, and particularly preferably 0 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the total amount of polyol compounds.

[0156] In addition, from the viewpoint of adhesion, the content of the low molecular weight polyol is, for example, less than 50 parts by mass, preferably 40 parts by mass or less, more preferably 30 parts by mass or less, and particularly preferably 0 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the polyol compounds.

[0157] In other words, the content of the acrylic polyol is, for example, more than 50 parts by mass, preferably 60 parts by mass or more, more preferably 70 parts by mass or more, and particularly preferably 100 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the polyol compounds.

[0158] That is, the polyol component does not contain other macropolyols and low molecular weight polyols as active ingredients, but contains only the above acrylic polyol.

[0159] The polyol component may also contain an organic solvent.

[0160] That is, the above polyol compound can be diluted with an organic solvent.

[0161] The organic solvent may be any of the organic solvents described above. These organic solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0162] As the organic solvent, from the viewpoint of handling and workability, preferably, an alkyl ester is used, and more preferably, ethyl acetate is used.

[0163] When the polyol component contains an organic solvent, the solids concentration is appropriately set depending on the purpose and application.

[0164] More specifically, the solids concentration of the polyol component (the content ratio of the polyol compound) is, for example, 5 mass % or more, preferably 10 mass % or more, and for example, 100 mass % or less, preferably 80 mass % or less.

[0165] The coating composition may further include additives.

[0166] Examples of additives include phosphorus oxyacids or derivatives thereof, silane coupling agents, defoamers, epoxy resins, catalysts, coatability improvers, leveling agents, stabilizers (antioxidants, ultraviolet absorbers, etc.), plasticizers, surfactants, pigments, fillers, organic or inorganic fine particles, and antifungal agents.

[0167] These additives can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0168] The additives may be added, for example, to either or both of the polyisocyanate component and the polyol component, or may be blended separately from the polyisocyanate component and / or the polyol component.

[0169] The amount of the additives to be added is appropriately determined depending on the purpose and application.

[0170] In the coating composition, the content ratio of the polyisocyanate component and the polyol component is adjusted, for example, as the equivalent ratio (NCO / OH) of the isocyanate group of the polyisocyanate component to the hydroxyl group of the polyol component.

[0171] More specifically, the equivalent ratio (NCO / OH) of the isocyanate groups of the polyisocyanate component to the hydroxyl groups of the polyol component is, from the viewpoint of gas barrier property, for example, 0.9 or more, preferably exceeds 1.0, more preferably 1.1 or more, even more preferably 1.2 or more, even more preferably 2.0 or more, and particularly preferably 2.5 or more, and from the viewpoint of retort resistance, for example, 10.0 or less, preferably 8.0 or less, more preferably 6.5 or less, even more preferably 6.0 or less, even more preferably 5.0 or less, and particularly preferably 4.5 or less.

[0172] The coating composition is prepared, for example, as a two-component curing coating agent or a one-component curing coating agent.

[0173] In the two-component curing coating agent, the above-mentioned polyol component is prepared as the base agent, and the above-mentioned polyisocyanate component is prepared as the curing agent. Then, the base agent and the curing agent are mixed in the above-mentioned ratio when used.

[0174] An example of a one-component curing coating agent is a moisture-curing adhesive that cures with moisture or steam (such as amine vapor). Such a one-component curing coating agent contains a urethane prepolymer having an isocyanate group at the molecular end, which is obtained by reacting, for example, a polyisocyanate component and the above-mentioned polyol component in the above-mentioned ratio.

[0175] The urethane prepolymer used as a one-component curing coating agent has an isocyanate group at the molecular end, and the isocyanate group reacts with moisture or vapor (such as amine vapor) in the air to cure.

[0176] The coating agent preferably contains the above-mentioned organic solvent.

[0177] As the organic solvent, from the viewpoint of handling and workability, preferably, an alkyl ester is used, and more preferably, ethyl acetate is used.

[0178] As described above, the organic solvent may be blended in the polyisocyanate component and / or the polyol component, or may be blended separately when the polyisocyanate component and the polyol component are mixed.

[0179] In the coating composition, the content ratio of the organic solvent is appropriately set so that the total amount of solids (resin solids) of the polyisocyanate component and the polyol component is a predetermined ratio.

[0180] The solids concentration of the coating composition (the total amount of the polyisocyanate component and the polyol component. Note that, in the case where an organic solvent is separately blended when the polyisocyanate component and the polyol component are mixed, the organic solvent is included) is, from the viewpoint of handleability and workability, for example, 5 mass% or more, preferably 10 mass% or more, and more preferably 20 mass% or more, and for example, 50 mass% or less, preferably 40 mass% or less, and more preferably 30 mass% or less.

[0181] In addition, in such a coating composition, the monomer composition, which is a raw material of the acrylic polyol, does not contain (meth)acrylonitrile, and therefore the coating composition has excellent solubility in alkyl esters, and as a result, is excellent in handleability and workability.

[0182] The coating composition contains an aromatic ring-containing isocyanate as a polyisocyanate component, and contains a polymer of a monomer composition containing a hydroxyl group-containing polymerizable monomer and a carboxyl group-containing polymerizable monomer as an acrylic polyol.

[0183] Therefore, the above coating composition can provide a laminate having excellent gas barrier properties and retort resistance (hot water resistance).

[0207] As the inorganic material, from the viewpoint of gas barrier properties, preferably, aluminum, silicon, aluminum oxide, and silicon oxide are used, and more preferably, aluminum oxide and silicon oxide are used.

[0208] In other words, the inorganic thin film layer 3 preferably contains aluminum oxide and / or silicon oxide.

[0217] The polyurethane layer 4 contains the cured product of the above-mentioned coating composition.

[0218] The polyurethane layer 4 is formed, for example, by applying the above-mentioned coating composition to the inorganic thin film layer 3, and then drying and curing (curing).

[0219] More specifically, the polyisocyanate component (curing agent) and the polyol component (main component) are mixed in the above-mentioned ratio, and the mixture (coating composition) is applied to the inorganic thin film layer 3.

[0220] The application temperature of the coating composition is, for example, 5°C or more, preferably 10°C or more, and for example, 50°C or less, preferably 40°C or less.

[0221] The coating amount of the coating composition is, for example, 0.1 g / m 2 More than 0.3 g / m 2 For example, 10 g / m 2 Preferably, 5 g / m or less 2 The following is the result.

The drying time is, for example, 10 seconds or more, preferably 30 seconds or more, and for example, 1 hour or less, preferably 30 minutes or less.

[0223] The curing temperature (curing temperature) is, for example, 5° C. or more, preferably 10° C. or more, and for example, 50° C. or less, preferably 40° C. or less. The curing time is, for example, 10 hours or more, preferably 20 hours or more, and for example, 200 hours or less, preferably 100 hours or less.

[0224] As a result, a polyurethane layer 4 as a cured product of the coating composition is laminated on the inorganic thin film layer 3.

[0225] The thickness of the polyurethane layer 4 is not particularly limited, but is, for example, 5 μm or more, preferably 10 μm or more, and for example, 200 μm or less, preferably 100 μm or less.

[0226] As a result, a first film 10 comprising the resin film 2, the inorganic thin film layer 3 and the polyurethane layer 4 is obtained.

[0227] The thickness of the first film 10 is not particularly limited, but is, for example, 50 μm or more, preferably 100 μm or more, and for example, 2000 μm or less, preferably 1000 μm or less.

[0228] The second film 20 includes, and preferably consists of, a sealant layer 6 .

[0229] The sealant layer 6 is a heat seal layer that imparts heat sealability to the laminate film 1.

[0230] The sealant layer 6 may be, for example, a thermoplastic polyolefin film.

[0231] More specifically, examples of the thermoplastic polyolefin film include a polyethylene film and a non-oriented polypropylene film (CPP film).

[0232] These thermoplastic polyolefin films can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0233] As the thermoplastic polyolefin film, preferably, a non-oriented polypropylene film (CPP film) is used.

[0235] Furthermore, the second film 20 (sealant layer 6) may be surface-treated as necessary. Examples of surface treatments include corona discharge treatment and primer treatment.

[0236] The adhesive layer 5 is a layer that is interposed between the polyurethane layer 4 of the first film 10 and the sealant layer 6 of the second film 20, and bonds the first film 10 and the second film 20 together.

[0237] The adhesive layer 5 is obtained by applying and drying a known laminating adhesive.

[0246] Next, the coated surface is attached to the other film (preferably the second film 20) and cured (aged) at room temperature or under heating. The curing conditions for the laminating adhesive are appropriately set depending on the purpose and application.

[0247] As a result, an adhesive layer 5 is obtained as a cured product of the laminating adhesive.

[0248] The adhesive layer 5 has a thickness of, for example, 10 μm or more, preferably 20 μm or more, and for example, 200 μm or less, preferably 150 μm or less.

[0251] Such a laminate film 1 can be obtained using the above-mentioned coating composition, and therefore can be obtained with good workability and has excellent gas barrier properties and retort resistance.

[0252] Therefore, such a laminate film 1 is suitable for use as a packaging material in various industrial fields such as food, beverages, medicines, and quasi-drugs. EXAMPLES

[0279] <Evaluation> (1) Retort processing The laminate film was subjected to hot water sterilization (retort treatment) at 120° C. for 30 minutes under a pressure of 0.2 MPa.

[0280] (2) Measurement of oxygen permeability Using an oxygen permeability measuring device (OX-TRAN2 / 20, manufactured by MOCON), the oxygen permeability of each laminate film before and after hot water sterilization was measured at 20°C and 80% relative humidity (80% RH) for 1 m 2 , oxygen transmission rate per day and atmosphere (OTR: cc / m 2 -24hr.atm) was measured.

[0281] In addition, the OTR reduction rate due to the retort treatment was calculated based on the oxygen transmission amount before and after the retort treatment according to the following formula.

[0282] OTR reduction rate = oxygen permeability before retort treatment / oxygen permeability after retort treatment

[0283] (3) Measurement of adhesion (lamination strength) The lamination strength (N) between the inorganic thin film layer and the polyurethane layer of each laminate film was measured by a T-peel test (15 mm width) in accordance with JIS K 6854 (1999) at a peel speed of 300 mm / min.

[0284] (4) Blocking property The polyurethane layer and the resin film are in contact (area 20 cm 2 ) and stored at 40°C for 24 hours.

[0285] Next, the polyurethane layer and the resin film were peeled off in the shear direction at a speed of 300 mm / min using a tensile tester.

[0286] The blocking property was evaluated based on the following criteria. ◯: The strength was 1N or less. △: The strength was 1N or more and it could be easily peeled off by hand. ×: The strength was 2N or more.
