Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a silicone-based pressure-sensitive adhesive composition that exhibits stable adhesiveness to a silicone-treated airbag base fabric for various fiber substrates and has no component transfer to the base fabric, which is suitable for difficult-to-adhere materials.
Background Art
[0002] As a safety device for automobiles, in the event of a collision accident, a sensor senses the impact, generates high-temperature and high-pressure gas from an inflator, and rapidly deploys the airbag with this gas to prevent the bodies of the driver and passengers, particularly the head, from colliding with the steering wheel, windshield, door glass, etc. In recent years, it has become common for automobiles to be equipped with multiple airbags, such as not only driver and passenger airbags but also knee airbags, side airbags, curtain airbags, etc.
[0003] Generally, a base fabric woven from synthetic fibers is used for airbags. As the synthetic fiber, polyamide fibers such as nylon 66, nylon 6, nylon 46, and nylon 12 are often used. When these fabrics are used as they are, they are referred to as non-coated base fabrics, and when coated with silicone, they are referred to as coated base fabrics.
[0004] Patent Document 1 is a publication regarding a coated base fabric for airbags that ensures sufficient low air permeability. In terms of low air permeability, the latter has higher performance than the non-coated base fabric and the coated base fabric.
[0005] The coated base fabric coated with silicone has high low air permeability performance. On the other hand, since silicone has a low surface free energy, it is very difficult to adhere, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a difficult-to-adhere material.
[0006] Patent Document 2 relates to a silicone rubber composition for a sewing airbag caulking material that is used as a caulking material at the location where the base fabrics of an airbag formed in a bag shape by overlapping and sewing the treated surfaces of coating base fabrics coated with silicone, which is a difficult-to-adhere material, are overlapped and sewn, exhibits excellent adhesiveness to the base fabric, and is excellent in storage stability and heat resistance change after curing. In this case, it is required that the caulking material cannot be easily peeled off.

[0026] <180° peel test> A silicone-based pressure-sensitive adhesive composition solution was applied onto a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film with a thickness of 50 μm using an applicator so that the cured thickness would be 40 μm, and then cured by heating at 130 °C for 3 minutes to produce a pressure-sensitive adhesive film. The film was cut into a width of 25 mm to form a tape shape. This pressure-sensitive adhesive tape was attached to a nylon base fabric coated with silicone, and crimped by reciprocating a roller covered with a rubber layer weighing 2 kg twice. After leaving it at room temperature for about 20 hours, the force (N / 25 mm) required to peel the tape from the nylon base fabric at an angle of 180° at a speed of 300 mm / min was measured using a tensile tester. It is the average of n = 10. A peel strength of 0.5 N / 25 mm or more was considered qualified, and less than 0.5 N / 25 mm was considered unqualified. The results are shown in Table 3 and Table 4.

[0027] <Glass paste residue test> In the paste residue test using a nylon base fabric coated with silicone, since the migration of the silicone composition was difficult to confirm, a test using glass was conducted to improve visibility. In the same manner as the 180° peel test, a 25-mm-wide pressure-sensitive adhesive tape was produced and clamped to the glass by reciprocating a 2-kg roller twice. When the film was pulled at a speed of about 300 mm / min, it was visually confirmed whether the components of the silicone composition migrated to the glass surface. Those without migration were considered qualified (:〇), and those with migration were considered unqualified (:×). The results are shown in Table 3 and Table 4. Note that Comparative Example 2 did not cure, so it is represented by (-).
