Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a membrane material and a method for producing the same. [Background technology]

[0002] In the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred in Japan on March 11, 2011, ceilings of buildings with large spaces such as gymnasiums collapsed, causing damage and losing lives in some facilities. In order to prevent damage caused by ceiling collapse during earthquakes, Japan amended the Building Standards Act Enforcement Order in July 2013 and promulgated the "Series of Technical Standards Notifications Concerning Measures Against Ceiling Collapse (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Notification No. 771 of 2013, etc.)" in August of the same year (effective from April 1, 2014). As a result, if a building falls under the category of a "special ceiling," it is mandatory to take measures to prevent falling in accordance with these technical standards. In response to these developments, membrane ceilings made of glass fiber fabric, which is fireproof and relatively light, have been attracting attention in recent years.

[0003] A known glass cloth for membrane ceilings is made by weaving warp and weft yarns, in which one yarn is a non-bulky glass fiber yarn and the other yarn is a bulky glass fiber yarn, the sum of the weave density of the non-bulky glass fiber yarn and the weave density of the bulky glass fiber yarn is 80 to 93 yarns / 25 mm, the ratio (B / A) of the weave density A of the non-bulky glass fiber yarn and the weave density B of the bulky glass fiber yarn is 0.65 to 0.95, the weave structure of the glass cloth is a double weave, and the opening ratio of the glass cloth is 0.02 to 1.0% (see, for example, Patent Document 1). This glass cloth for membrane ceilings uses bulky glass fiber yarn, has a double weave structure, and has a specific weaving density, which gives it excellent sound absorption properties, including excellent sound absorption in the low frequency range that is the frequency range of human voices, and is said to suppress echoes of human voices when used as a ceiling membrane.

[0004] Also, a sound-absorbing noncombustible sheet is known, which is a laminate comprising a fiber fabric woven from multifilament yarn as an air-permeable diffusion layer, and a thermoplastic resin layer covering at least one side of the fiber fabric, and a large number of vent holes with a hole diameter of 0.5 to 2.5 mm are formed in a scattered manner on the entire surface of the laminate, the total area of ​​the vent holes has an open area ratio of 2.5 to 12.5% ​​per unit area of ​​the laminate, and the thermoplastic resin layer contains thermally expandable particles in an amount of 1.5 to 10% by mass relative to the thermoplastic resin layer. According to the sheet, a noncombustible interior material having sound absorption properties as a ceiling area component and sound absorbing component installed on the ceiling of a building, or an accessory of a ceiling area component, is obtained, and these membrane materials are lightweight and flexible so that they are unlikely to cause serious human damage even if they collapse due to an earthquake, while having excellent echo suppression and sound attenuation effects. For this reason, the sheet is said to be widely usable as a membrane ceiling in indoor stadiums, gymnasiums, indoor pools, event halls, public halls, wedding and funeral halls, station lobbies, airport lobbies, shopping mall atriums, etc. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] WO2014 / 171188 Brochure [Patent Document 2] JP 2016-186533 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] The glass cloth for membrane ceilings disclosed in the examples of Patent Document 1 is made of only woven glass fibers and does not contain resin, which causes problems such as poor surface smoothness and poor ability to remove dirt once attached to the membrane material (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as "anti-fouling property").

[0007] On the other hand, the sound-absorbing non-combustible sheet of Patent Document 2 has antifouling properties because the surface of the glass fiber contains resin. In order to enhance sound absorption, the membrane material of the membrane ceiling is designed to have a specific aperture ratio. However, the inventors of the present invention have found that the membrane material of Patent Document 2 has a problem that, when installed as a membrane ceiling of an indoor pool, for example, it cannot suppress the generation of mold, resulting in a poor appearance.

[0008] Therefore, the main object of the present invention is to solve the above problems and to provide a membrane material for membrane ceilings which has excellent sound absorption, stain resistance, and mold resistance even when installed as a membrane ceiling for an indoor swimming pool, for example. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] As a result of the inventors' study, the membrane material of Patent Document 2 has air holes with a specific porosity ratio to provide excellent sound absorption, but the presence of the air holes has made it particularly susceptible to mold. Specifically, the inventors have found that water that evaporates from the pool and comes into contact with the membrane ceiling is likely to accumulate in the small air holes in the membrane ceiling, and mold is likely to occur from the air holes. In other words, the inventors have found that a membrane material with excellent sound absorption properties that has air holes requires particularly high antifungal performance, more specifically, antifungal performance to the extent that no hyphae are observed after 4 weeks in a mold resistance test measured in accordance with JIS Z 2911-2018 7 wet method.

[0010] Here, if one were to simply impart high antifungal performance to the membrane material, one might consider increasing the amount of antifungal agent. However, when increasing the amount of antifungal agent, it is also necessary to increase the amount of resin that serves as the binder component of the antifungal agent. The inventors have found that if the amount of binder resin is increased excessively, the air holes necessary for achieving excellent sound absorption performance will be filled with resin, resulting in poor sound absorption performance. In addition, the total organic matter amount (g / m2) including the antifungal agent and the resin that serves as the binder component 2It was found that if the amount of resin is relatively reduced and the amount of antifungal agent is relatively increased while leaving the above-mentioned properties unchanged, the smoothness of the resulting film material tends to deteriorate and the antifouling properties cannot be maintained. In other words, it was found that there is a trade-off between sound absorption performance and antifouling properties on the one hand and antifungal properties on the other.

[0011] As a result of extensive research, the present inventors have found that the amount of resin that can achieve both antifouling and sound absorption properties in a film material containing a glass fiber fabric and a resin contained on the upper surface of the glass fiber is 20 to 60 g / m 2 and by making the antifungal agent contained in the resin exist relatively more on the surface side of the resin, it has been found that it is possible to simultaneously achieve sound absorption, antifouling properties, and the high antifungal performance required for installation as a membrane ceiling for an indoor swimming pool, for example. The present invention has been completed based on this knowledge and through further investigation.

[0012] That is, the present invention provides the following aspects. Item 1. A membrane material used as a membrane ceiling in a building, Glass fiber fabric; A resin that coats glass fibers constituting the glass fiber fabric; A fungicide contained in the resin, The membrane material has a breathability of 1 to 40 cm 3 / cm 2 / sec, The total mass of the resin is 20 to 60 g / m 2 and A membrane material in which no mycelium growth is observed even after 4 weeks of incubation in a mold resistance test measured in accordance with the wet method described in the "7. Testing of textile products" section of the Japanese Industrial Standard JIS Z 2911-2010 "Mold resistance test method." Item 2. The membrane material according to Item 1, wherein the antifungal agent is a pyridine-based antifungal agent. Item 3. The membrane material according to item 1 or 2, wherein the resin comprises a polyurethane-based resin, and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and / or a vinyl chloride-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer. Item 4. A membrane ceiling comprising the membrane material according to any one of items 1 to 3. Item 5. Use of the membrane material according to any one of items 1 to 3 as a membrane ceiling. Item 6. A method for producing the membrane material according to any one of items 1 to 3, comprising the following steps (1) to (3): (1) A step of preparing a glass fiber fabric. (2) A first resin application step in which a resin is applied to the surface of the glass fibers constituting the glass fiber fabric to obtain an intermediate membrane material. (3) A second resin adhering step of adhering a resin having a higher content of antifungal agent than the resin adhered in the first resin adhering step to the membrane material intermediate. Effect of the Invention

[0013] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a membrane material for membrane ceilings which has excellent sound absorption properties, antifungal properties and antifouling properties even when installed as a membrane ceiling for an indoor swimming pool, for example. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0014] The membrane material of the present invention is a membrane material used as a membrane ceiling in a building, and includes a glass fiber fabric, a resin that coats the glass fibers constituting the glass fiber fabric, and a fungicide contained in the resin. The membrane material has an air permeability of 1 to 40 cm. 3 / cm 2 / sec, and the total mass of the resin is 20 to 60 g / m 2 The membrane material of the present invention is characterized in that no mycelium growth is observed even after 4 weeks of culture in a mold resistance test measured according to the wet method described in the section "7. Testing of Textile Products" of the Japanese Industrial Standards JIS Z 2911-2010 "Mold Resistance Test Method." The components of the membrane material of the present invention will be described in detail below.

[0015] <Glass fiber fabric> The membrane material of the present invention contains a glass fiber fabric. This makes it easier to improve fire resistance while making the membrane material of the present invention relatively lightweight when used for a membrane ceiling, and also improves sound absorption properties.

[0016] The glass material constituting the glass fiber is not particularly limited, and known glass materials can be used. Specific examples of the glass material include alkali-free glass (E glass), acid-resistant alkali-containing glass (C glass), high-strength, high-elasticity glass (S glass, T glass, etc.), and alkali-resistant glass (AR glass).

[0017] The form of the glass fibers (warp and weft) constituting the glass fiber fabric is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include long fibers such as monofilaments and multifilaments, and short fibers such as spun yarns. Among them, from the viewpoint of improving the bonding between two woven fabrics to be bonded to increase the area of ​​the membrane material of the present invention, it is preferable to use a yarn in which a plurality of single fibers, which are long fibers, are twisted together. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of effectively adjusting the gaps between the warps and the wefts even with a relatively low weaving density and making it easier to improve the sound absorption and fire resistance when the membrane material is used as a membrane ceiling, the glass fibers constituting the glass fiber fabric are preferably a plied yarn in which a plurality of the above-mentioned yarns are twisted together in the opposite direction to the twist direction of the yarn, and more preferably a plied yarn in which 2 to 4 of the above-mentioned yarns are twisted together in the opposite direction to the twist direction of the yarn. The number of twists (first twist number) of the plied yarn is preferably 2 to 5 times / 25 mm, and more preferably 3.0 to 4.5 times / 25 mm. The glass fibers constituting the glass fiber fabric may be bulky-textured yarns obtained by processing the above-mentioned yarns to be bulky with an air jet or the like. Among the bulky-textured yarns, a bulky-textured yarn obtained by processing a double-twisted yarn obtained by twisting a plurality of the above-mentioned yarns in the direction opposite to the twisting direction of the yarns to be bulky with an air jet or the like is preferable. Among the above-mentioned bulky-textured yarns, from the viewpoint of further achieving both the suppression of wrinkles in the membrane material, sound absorption properties, and non-flammability, a bulky-textured yarn obtained by twisting a double-twisted yarn obtained by twisting 2 to 4 of the above-mentioned yarns twisted in the S direction or Z direction in the direction opposite to the yarns to be bulky with an air jet or the like is more preferable.

[0018] The combination of warp and weft yarns in the glass fiber fabric is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include a combination in which the warp and weft yarns are both ply-twisted yarns, or a combination in which one of the warp and weft yarns is a ply-twisted yarn and the other is a bulky-textured yarn.

[0019] The number of single fibers in the yarn is not particularly limited, but is preferably 30 to 800, and more preferably 100 to 800. The diameter of the single fiber in the yarn is, for example, 3.0 to 12.0 μm, and preferably 5.0 to 9.0 μm. The yarn count is, for example, 10 to 1000 tex, and preferably 100 to 500 tex.

[0020] When the above-mentioned ply-twisted yarn is used as the glass fiber yarn constituting the glass fiber fabric, the yarn count of the ply-twisted yarn can be, for example, 50 to 500 tex, preferably 50 to 200 tex, and more preferably 100 to 180 tex. When the above-mentioned bulky-textured yarn is used as the glass fiber yarn constituting the glass fiber fabric, the yarn count of the bulky-textured yarn can be, for example, 100 to 500 tex, preferably 200 to 400 tex, and more preferably 250 to 350 tex.

[0021] In the present invention, the weave of the glass fiber fabric is not limited, and examples thereof include plain weave, satin weave, twill weave, basket weave, rib weave, warp double weave, weft double weave, double weave, etc. Among them, plain weave is preferred from the viewpoint of further suppressing the occurrence of wrinkles and swelling of the membrane material and further enhancing the aesthetic appearance when used as a membrane ceiling.

[0022] In the present invention, the weave density of the glass fiber fabric is not particularly limited. For example, it can be appropriately adjusted for the purpose of further improving the non-combustibility and sound absorption when made into a membrane ceiling, and for example, 10 to 200 threads / 25 mm can be mentioned, 10 to 100 threads / 25 mm can be mentioned, and 15 to 40 threads / 25 mm can be mentioned more preferably. In this case, if the interval between the warp threads and the interval between the weft threads are set to 0.5 mm or less, it is easy to obtain a fabric with better non-combustibility. In addition, the ratio of the weave density of the warp threads to the weft threads (weave density of the weft threads / weave density of the warp threads) can be 0.50 to 0.99, preferably 0.75 to 0.99, and more preferably 0.94 to 0.99, from the viewpoint of further improving the sound absorption when made into a membrane ceiling.

[0023] In the present invention, from the viewpoint of achieving better sound absorption when the membrane material is used for a membrane ceiling, the glass fiber fabric preferably has a cover factor of 2000 to 2400, more preferably 2100 to 2300. In the present invention, the cover factor Cf of the glass fiber fabric is a value calculated according to the following formula. Cf = T × (DT) 1 / 2 +W×(DW) 1 / 2 ...(Formula 1) Here, T and W respectively indicate the warp density and weft density (threads / 25 mm) of the fabric, and DT and DW respectively indicate the count (dtex) of the warp and weft threads constituting the fabric.

[0024] The mass of the glass fiber fabric used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of further improving the fireproofness, sound absorption and stain resistance when used as a membrane ceiling, it is preferably 250 to 500 g / m 2 and 300 to 400 g / m 2 are more preferred.

[0025] The glass fiber fabric used in the present invention may contain polyvinyl alcohol and / or starch on the surface. Polyvinyl alcohol and / or starch are used, for example, as sizing agents for glass fiber fabrics, and can usually be removed (de-oiled) by a heat cleaning treatment in which heat treatment is performed at a temperature of about 400° C. On the other hand, in the present invention, by using a glass fiber fabric from which the sizing agent has not been removed, i.e., a glass fiber fabric that has not been subjected to a heat cleaning treatment, the mechanical strength of the membrane material can be further improved.

[0026] <Resin> The membrane material of the present invention includes a resin that covers the glass fibers that constitute the above-mentioned glass fiber fabric. That is, the membrane material of the present invention includes a resin that is included on the upper surface of the above-mentioned glass fibers. If the membrane material is made of only glass fiber fabric, as in the membrane material disclosed as an example in Patent Document 1, it is difficult to remove dirt such as dust that has entered the gaps between the single fibers in the glass fibers by wiping it off. On the other hand, according to the membrane material of the present invention, since the surface of the glass fiber is covered with a resin, the intrusion of dirt into the gaps between the single fibers in the glass fibers is reduced, and the smoothness of the membrane material is improved, making it possible to provide a membrane material with excellent anti-fouling properties. In addition, in the membrane material of the present invention, the resin also plays a role in adjusting the size of the gaps (openings) formed by the warp and weft threads of the glass fiber fabric, thereby making the membrane material excellent in sound absorption. Furthermore, in the membrane material of the present invention, the resin also plays a role in preventing water that has evaporated from the pool and come into contact with the membrane ceiling from accumulating in the gaps between the single fibers in the glass fibers, and preventing mold from easily occurring from the gaps between the glass fibers.

[0027] The type of resin used in the film material of the present invention is not particularly limited. Examples of resins include curable resins such as vinyl ester resins, urethane acrylate resins, fluorene acrylate resins, and unsaturated polyester resins; vinyl chloride resins (including homopolymers of vinyl chloride and copolymers of vinyl chloride and other monomers), acrylic resins (including polymers and copolymers of acrylic acid, acrylic acid esters, acrylamide, acrylonitrile, methacrylic acid, methacrylic acid esters, etc.), polyurethane resins, fluorine resins, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, saturated polyester resins, and thermoplastic resins such as polyamide resins. These resins may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Among these resins, from the viewpoint of achieving better antifouling properties, polyurethane resins, fluorine resins, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, vinyl chloride resins, and acrylic resins are preferred, and it is more preferred to use polyurethane resins in combination with ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers and / or vinyl chloride-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymers. That is, when a membrane material is used to form a membrane ceiling, the membrane material may be enlarged in area, and the enlargement is usually achieved by bonding the membrane materials together by heat welding or the like. Polyurethane resins are preferred in that they can further improve the bonding property by heat welding and the antifouling property. Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers and vinyl chloride-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymers are preferred in that they can improve the water repellency of the membrane material while improving the bonding property, and can easily prevent water that has evaporated from the pool and contacted the membrane ceiling from accumulating in the gaps (openings) formed by the warp and weft of the glass fiber fabric. Therefore, by using polyurethane resins in combination with ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers and / or vinyl chloride-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymers, the bonding property by heat welding, the antifouling property, and the antifungal property can be further improved.

[0028] When a polyurethane resin is used in combination with an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and / or a vinyl chloride-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer as the resin, the ratio of the total amount of the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and / or the vinyl chloride-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer contained in the membrane material of the present invention to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the polyurethane resin contained in the membrane material of the present invention is, for example, 5 to 500 parts by mass, preferably 5 to 400 parts by mass.

[0029] In the present invention, the polyurethane resin is a resin having a urethane bond in the repeating unit of the main chain. Examples of the isocyanate component constituting the polyurethane resin include aliphatic diisocyanates such as ethylene diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, and decamethylene diisocyanate, alicyclic diisocyanates such as xylylene diisocyanate, bis(isocyanomethyl)cyclohexane, hydrogenated diphenylmethane diisocyanate, and hydrogenated tolylene diisocyanate, diisocyanate compounds such as aromatic diisocyanates such as phenylene diisocyanate, tolylene diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, dimethyldiphenylene diisocyanate, and naphthylene diisocyanate, and isocyanate compounds such as isophorone diisocyanate, 1,3-cyclohexane diisocyanate, tetramethylene diisocyanate, and triphenylmethane triisocyanate. Examples of the polyol component constituting the polyurethane resin include polyester polyols, polyether polyols, polycarbonate polyols, polyesteramide polyols, and acrylate polyols.

[0030] The total mass of the resin in the membrane material of the present invention is 20 to 60 g / m 2 The total mass of the resin is 20 g / m 2 If the total mass of the resin is less than 60 g / m, the stain resistance will be poor. 2If it exceeds this range, the gaps formed by the warp and weft of the glass fiber fabric become too small, resulting in poor air permeability and poor sound absorption. From the viewpoint of achieving even greater balance between sound absorption, mildew resistance, stain resistance, and non-combustibility of the film material, the total mass of the resin in the film material of the present invention is preferably 20 to 50 g / m 2 , more preferably 30 to 50 g / m 2 In the present invention, the "total mass of resin" refers to the total mass of all resins coating the glass fiber, and for example, when two or more resin layers are provided as the resin coating the glass fiber as described later, it refers to the total mass of resin contained in all the resin layers.

[0031] In addition, in the membrane material of the present invention, the mass (g / m 2 ) to the total mass of resin (g / m 2 The ratio (total mass of resin / mass of glass fiber fabric) is, for example, 0.05 to 0.2. From the viewpoint of achieving a balance between sound absorption, mildew resistance, and stain resistance of the film material, the ratio (total mass of resin / mass of glass fiber fabric) is preferably 0.08 to 0.15.

[0032] In addition, in the membrane material of the present invention, the total mass (g / m 2 ) to the total mass of resin (g / m 2 The ratio (total mass of resins / total mass of membrane material) is, for example, 0.05 to 0.2. From the viewpoint of achieving even better balance between sound absorption, antifungal properties, and antifouling properties of the membrane material, the ratio (total mass of resins / total mass of membrane material) is preferably 0.08 to 0.12.

[0033] <Anti-mold agent> In the film material of the present invention, the resin coating the glass fiber fabric contains an antifungal agent. As described above, in a film material having excellent sound absorption properties due to the provision of voids (openings), mold is likely to grow, so it is necessary to have a particularly high antifungal performance, more specifically, the antifungal performance described below. Therefore, in order to provide the film material of the present invention with high antifungal performance, the resin coating the glass fiber fabric contains an antifungal agent.

[0034] The type of antifungal agent is not particularly limited, but a suitable example is a pyridine-based antifungal agent, which is an antibacterial agent containing a pyridine compound as a main component. Examples of pyridine compounds include 2-pyridylthiol-1-oxide zinc, 2-chloro-4-trichloromethyl-6-(2-furylmethoxy)pyridine, 2-chloro-4-trichloromethyl-6-methoxypyridine, 2-chloro-6-trichloromethylpyridine, di(4-chlorophenyl)pyridylmethanol, 2,3,5,-trichloro-4-(n-propylsulfonyl)pyridine, 2-pyrindinethiol-1-oxide sodium, 1,4-(1-diiodomethylsulfonyl)benzene, 10,10'-oxybisphenoxyarsine, 6-(2-thiophenecarbonyl)-1H-2-benzimidazolecarbamic acid methyl ester, and 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one. These pyridine-based fungicides may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Among these pyridine-based antifungal agents, 2-pyridylthiol-1-zinc oxide is preferred from the viewpoint of realizing antifungal properties excellent in resistance to moist heat.

[0035] In the membrane material of the present invention, the total mass of the antifungal agent (g / m 2 ) is not particularly limited as long as it satisfies the antifungal properties described below, but may be, for example, 0.5 to 3.0 g / m 2 From the viewpoint of achieving a better balance between sound absorption, antifungal, antifouling, and non-combustibility of the membrane material, the total mass of the antifungal agent (g / m 2 ) is preferably 1.0 to 3.0 g / m 2 , more preferably 1.5 to 2.5 g / m 2 In the present invention, the "total mass of antifungal agent" refers to the total mass of the antifungal agent contained in the resin coating the glass fiber, and for example, when two or more resin layers are provided as the resin coating the glass fiber as described below, it refers to the total mass of the antifungal agent contained in all the resin layers.

[0036] In addition, in the membrane material of the present invention, the total mass of the resin (g / m 2 ) relative to the total mass of the fungicide (g / m 2 The ratio (antifungal agent / resin) is, for example, 0.010 to 0.100. From the viewpoint of achieving an even better balance between sound absorption, antifungal properties, antifouling properties, and nonflammability of the film material, the ratio (antifungal agent / resin) is preferably 0.030 to 0.070, and more preferably 0.040 to 0.060.

[0037] <Other ingredients> The film material of the present invention may contain other components in addition to the antifungal agent in the resin, such as additives including a crosslinking agent, a coloring pigment such as an organic pigment or an inorganic pigment, a dye, an ultraviolet absorber, and an infrared absorber.

[0038] <Membrane material structure> The membrane material of the present invention has a structure in which the glass fibers constituting the glass fiber fabric are covered with a resin containing a fungicide. In addition, in order to provide the membrane material of the present invention with breathability and excellent sound absorption properties as described below, at least a part of the gap formed by adjacent warp yarns and adjacent weft yarns in the glass fiber fabric is not completely covered with the resin, and an opening (vent) is formed.

[0039] <Layer structure of resin coating glass fiber> In the membrane material of the present invention, the resin coating the glass fiber may form a single resin layer, or may form two or more resin layers (preferably a two-layer structure or a three-layer structure) using resin compositions having different compositions.

[0040] In the film material of the present invention, when the resin coating the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, it is sufficient that at least one of the resin layers contains an antifungal agent, but it is preferable that at least the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface of the film material contains an antifungal agent. In particular, when the resin coating the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, it is preferable that the content ratio of the antifungal agent in the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface of the film material is higher than the average content ratio of the antifungal agent in the other resin layers. That is, in the film material of the present invention, the resin coating the glass fiber has a portion in which the content ratio of the antifungal agent differs in the thickness direction of the resin, and the content ratio is preferably highest on the surface side of the resin. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to preferably provide the antifungal properties described below and to fully provide the antifungal performance required when installed as a membrane ceiling of an indoor pool.

[0041] In the membrane material of the present invention, when the resin coating the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, the constituent resin of the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface (the surface opposite to the glass fiber) may be any of the resins exemplified above, but preferably contains a polyurethane-based resin. By forming the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface with a polyurethane-based resin, the bonding property and antifouling property of the membrane material can be further improved.

[0042] In the membrane material of the present invention, when the resin coating the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, the content ratio of the antifungal agent in the resin layer disposed on the outermost surface (mass of antifungal agent contained in the resin layer disposed on the outermost surface / mass of resin contained in the resin layer disposed on the outermost surface) is preferably 0.060 to 0.30, more preferably 0.080 to 0.30, and even more preferably 0.100 to 0.250.

[0043] In the membrane material of the present invention, when the resin coating the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, the ratio of the mass of the resin contained in the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface to the mass of the glass fiber fabric (mass of the resin contained in the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface / mass of the glass fiber fabric) is, for example, 0.005 to 0.04, and preferably 0.01 to 0.03.

[0044] In addition, in the film material of the present invention, when the resin covering the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, the constituent resin of the resin layer arranged other than the outermost surface may be the resin exemplified above, but preferably contains a polyurethane resin, and more preferably contains a polyurethane resin and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and / or a vinyl chloride-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer. In this way, at least one layer of the resin layer arranged other than the outermost surface is formed of a resin layer containing a polyurethane resin and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and / or a vinyl chloride-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer, thereby improving the water repellency of the film material and making it more excellent in antifungal properties, while the film material has excellent flexibility, making it easier to prevent wrinkles from occurring during construction of the membrane ceiling.

[0045] In the film material of the present invention, when the resin coating the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, the average content ratio of the antifungal agent in the resin layers arranged other than the outermost surface (total mass of the antifungal agent contained in all the resin layers arranged other than the outermost surface / total mass of the resin contained in all the resin layers arranged other than the outermost surface) is, for example, 0 to 0.05, preferably 0.01 to 0.04, and more preferably 0.02 to 0.04. Here, the average content ratio is the ratio of the mass of the resin contained in the resin layer to the mass of the antifungal agent contained in the resin layer when there is one resin layer arranged other than the outermost surface. In addition, when there are two or more resin layers arranged other than the outermost surface, the average content ratio is the ratio of the total mass of the resin contained in all the resin layers arranged other than the outermost surface (two or more resin layers) to the total mass of the antifungal agent contained in all the resin layers arranged other than the outermost surface (two or more resin layers).

[0046] In the membrane material of the present invention, when the resin coating the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, the ratio of the mass of the resin contained in the resin layers arranged on the other than the outermost surface to the mass of the glass fiber fabric (total mass of the resins contained in the resin layers arranged on the other than the outermost surface / mass of the glass fiber fabric) is, for example, 0.05 to 0.15, preferably 0.05 to 0.12. Here, when there is one resin layer arranged on the other than the outermost surface, the ratio is the mass ratio of the glass fiber fabric to the mass of the resin contained in the resin layer. When there are two or more resin layers arranged on the other than the outermost surface, the ratio is the mass ratio of the glass fiber fabric to the total mass of the resin contained in all of the resin layers arranged on the other than the outermost surface (two or more resin layers).

[0047] Furthermore, in the film material of the present invention, when the resin coating the glass fiber forms two or more resin layers, the content ratio of the antifungal agent in the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface (mass of antifungal agent contained in the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface / mass of resin contained in the resin layer arranged on the outermost surface) is preferably 3 to 10 times higher, and more preferably 5 to 10 times higher, than the content ratio of the antifungal agent in the other resin layers (total mass of antifungal agent contained in all resin layers arranged other than the outermost surface / total mass of resin contained in all resin layers arranged other than the outermost surface).

[0048] <Characteristics of membrane materials> (1) Breathability The membrane material of the present invention has a breathability of 1 to 40 cm 3 / cm 2 By setting the air permeability in this range, the sound absorption of the membrane material can be excellent. As mentioned above, if the amount of resin and the amount of antifungal agent are increased simply to improve the stain resistance and antifungal properties, the gaps formed by adjacent warp yarns and adjacent weft yarns that constitute the glass fiber fabric will be filled, and the air permeability will be reduced to 1 cm. 3 / cm 2If the amount of resin is reduced or the weaving density of the glass fiber fabric is reduced too much, the air permeability will be reduced to 40 cm 3 / cm 2 If the air permeability exceeds 3 to 20 cm / sec, the resulting membrane material will have poor sound absorption properties. 3 / cm 2 / sec is more preferable, 6-15cm 3 / cm 2 / sec is more preferable, 8-15cm 3 / cm 2 The air permeability is a value measured and calculated according to the method described in "7.13 Air permeability of cloth" of the Japanese Industrial Standard JIS R 3420:2013 "General test method for glass fibers."

[0049] In order to set the air permeability of the membrane material within the above range, the mass of the resin used, the weaving density of the glass fiber fabric, the count of the glass fibers, etc. may be appropriately adjusted.

[0050] (2) Mildew resistance The membrane material of the present invention is one in which no mycelium growth is observed even after 4 weeks of culture in a mold resistance test measured according to the wet method described in "7. Testing of Textile Products" of the Japanese Industrial Standard JIS Z 2911-2010 "Mold Resistance Test Method". As described above, the membrane material of the present invention contains an antifungal agent on the surface side of the resin, so that even if the membrane material is a membrane material with excellent sound absorption properties as the above-mentioned breathability, it can ensure high mold resistance required when installed as a membrane ceiling of an indoor pool, while also being excellent in dirt resistance.

[0051] In order to provide the above-mentioned antifungal properties, it is sufficient to include an antifungal agent on the surface side of the resin. However, the type and mass (g / m) of the antifungal agent may vary. 2 ) can be more easily achieved by appropriately adjusting the composition of the resin (mass, type, etc.).

[0052] (3) Nonflammable From the viewpoint of providing excellent non-combustibility, the membrane material of the present invention preferably satisfies the following requirements. <Requirements> According to "4.10.2 Box Test Method" of the "Fire Resistance Testing and Evaluation Procedure Manual" (revised on March 1, 2014) of the General Incorporated Foundation Building Materials Testing Center (a Japanese corporation), a radiant electric heater is used to apply 50 kW / m to the surface of the membrane material. 2 In the heat generation test, the maximum heat generation rate is 200 kW / m for 10 seconds or more continuously for 20 minutes after the start of heating. 2 and the total heat generation amount for 20 minutes after the start of heating is 8MJ / m 2 In the heat generation test, it is preferable that no through holes of 0.5 mm square or more are present for 20 minutes after the start of heating.

[0053] In order to provide the membrane material of the present invention with the above-mentioned requirement of non-combustibility, for example, the amount of resin may be adjusted or a flame retardant may be added to the resin.

[0054] (4) Sound absorption Furthermore, in order to obtain superior sound absorption properties when used in a membrane ceiling, the membrane material of the present invention preferably has an NRC (Noise Reduction Coefficient) value measured according to a method conforming to Japanese Industrial Standard JIS A 1409:1998 "Method of measuring sound absorption coefficient in a reverberation room" of 0.5 or more, and more preferably 0.6 to 0.9.

[0055] The specific method for measuring the NRC value is as follows. In accordance with the Japanese Industrial Standard JIS A 1409:1998 "Method for measuring reverberation room sound absorption coefficient", the reverberation room sound absorption coefficient is measured at 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, and 2000 Hz.

In this state, the reverberation chamber sound absorption coefficient is measured at 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, and 2000 Hz under conditions of a temperature of 24.7°C and a relative humidity of 59.6%. In addition, when calculating the reverberation chamber sound absorption coefficient, correction is made for the temperature and humidity conditions of the air using formula (6) described in Appendix E (Reference) "Method of correction for the effect of changes in temperature and relative humidity in a reverberation chamber on the reverberation time" of the Japanese Industrial Standard JIS A 1409:1998 "Method of measurement of sound absorption coefficient in a reverberation chamber". The average of the reverberation room sound absorption coefficients at 250Hz, 500Hz, 1000Hz, and 2000Hz is taken as the NRC value.

[0056] In order to provide the membrane material of the present invention with the above-mentioned NRC value, for example, the air permeability may be adjusted, but it is also possible to more easily provide the membrane material with the above-mentioned NRC value by adjusting the cover factor of the glass fiber fabric and the amount of resin attached to the surface of the constituent glass fibers.
