Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a peelable film and a method for producing the same. [Background technology]
[0002] BACKGROUND ART Peelable films are used in industrial fields such as manufacturing processes for electronic components and electronic substrates, and manufacturing processes for thermosetting resin members such as fiber-reinforced plastics, as well as in the medical field such as for compresses and adhesive plasters.
[0003] Various types of release films are known, including those used as surface protection films or adhesive tapes, release liners or separator films, separators used in the manufacturing processes of semiconductor products (dicing, die bonding, back grinding, etc.), carriers for forming unfired sheets in the manufacture of ceramic capacitors, carriers in the manufacture of composite materials, and protective separator films.
[0004] For example, silicone-based release films have excellent weather resistance, heat resistance, cold resistance, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation, and are widely used as release films. However, when using silicone-based release films, silicone may transfer (migrate) to the article to which the film is attached (this problem is also called the silicone migration problem). Therefore, efforts have been made to improve the silicone composition in silicone-based release films, minimize the amount of silicone used, or even to eliminate silicone altogether. For example, Patent Document 1 proposes a release film using a hydroxyl group-containing long-chain alkyl polymer. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2015-030795 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0006] However, the release film described in Patent Document 1 has insufficient heat resistance due to a large difference in peel strength before and after heating. As an example, we will explain the use of a release film as a carrier for forming an unsintered sheet during the production of ceramic capacitors. To produce the unsintered sheet, a coating layer is formed on the release film and then dried. If the heat resistance is insufficient due to a large difference in peel strength before and after heating, the unsintered sheet will be difficult to peel off unexpectedly from the release film after drying due to the heat of the drying process. Depending on the release film, the unsintered sheet may not only be difficult to peel off unexpectedly from the release film, but may also peel off unexpectedly from the release film. Due to these problems, this release film is difficult to use as a replacement for silicone-based release films.
[0007] Furthermore, similar to the problem of silicone migration caused by silicone-based release films, there is a problem in that if the components of the release film migrate to the surface of an article and remain on the surface of the article after the release film is peeled off from the article, the surface of the article will be contaminated. The remaining components on the surface of the article not only contaminate the surface of the article, but also lead to contamination of the surfaces of other articles that come into contact with the article thereafter. Therefore, release films used in the manufacturing processes of precision equipment such as electronic components and electronic substrates are particularly required to have the ability to prevent the components of the release film from migrating to the article.
[0008] Under these circumstances, a main object of the present invention is to provide a release film in which components of the release film are unlikely to migrate to an article and in which the difference in release force before and after heating is small. [Means for solving the problem]
[0009] The present inventors have conducted extensive research to solve the above-mentioned problems, and as a result, have discovered a peelable film having a surface layer on a substrate layer, wherein the main component forming the surface layer is a resin component, and the resin component includes a modified acrylic resin (A) having an alkyl component and a crosslinkable functional group, a resin (B) different from the modified acrylic resin (A), and a crosslinking agent (D), wherein the modified acrylic resin (A) is at least a compound represented by the following general formula (I): [ka] (In the general formula (I), R 1 represents a methyl group or a hydrogen atom, and R 2 represents an alkyl group having 10 to 18 carbon atoms. and the crosslinking agent (D) is a melamine compound having a structure in which all of the hydrogen atoms of the amino groups are substituted with at least one of an alkoxyalkyl group and an alkanol group, the components of the release film are less likely to migrate to the article, and the difference in release force before and after heating is small.

[Effects of the Invention]
[0011] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a peelable film having a surface layer on a substrate layer, in which components of the peelable film are less likely to migrate to an article and the difference in peel strength before and after heating is small. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0012] The release film according to this embodiment is a release film having a surface layer on a base layer, and the main component forming the surface layer is a resin component, and the resin component includes a modified acrylic resin (A) having an alkyl component and a crosslinkable functional group, a resin (B) different from the modified acrylic resin (A), and a crosslinking agent (D), and the modified acrylic resin (A) is at least a compound represented by the following general formula (I): [ka] (In the general formula (I), R 1 represents a methyl group or a hydrogen atom, and R 2represents an alkyl group having 10 to 18 carbon atoms.) and the crosslinking agent (D) is a melamine compound having a structure in which all of the hydrogen atoms of the amino groups are substituted with at least one of an alkoxyalkyl group and an alkanol group.
[0013] The release film according to the present embodiment, having such a configuration, exhibits the following characteristics: components of the release film are less likely to migrate to an article, and the difference in release strength between before and after heating is small. More specifically, (1) when an object (adherend) is attached to the surface layer of the release film and then peeled away from the surface layer, components contained in the surface layer of the release film are less likely to migrate to the surface of the object; and (2) the release film also exhibits the following characteristics: the difference in release strength between before and after heating to high temperatures, such as 90 to 160°C. Because of these properties, the release film according to the present embodiment can be particularly suitable for use in the manufacturing processes for electronic components and electronic substrates, the manufacturing processes for thermosetting resin components such as fiber-reinforced plastics, and in the medical field, such as for compresses and adhesive bandages. In addition to the above properties, the release film according to the present embodiment can be even more suitable for use in the aforementioned fields when it has a low release strength at room temperature (the release strength before heating to the aforementioned high temperature) and / or an excellent residual adhesion rate.
[0014] The release film according to this embodiment will be described in detail below. In this specification, the "to" in a numerical range means "greater than or equal to" or "less than or equal to." That is, the notation "α to β" means "greater than or equal to α and less than or equal to β," or "greater than or equal to β and less than or equal to α," and includes both α and β as a range. Furthermore, "(meth)acrylic" means "acrylic or methacrylic," and similar terms have similar meanings.
[0015] The peelable film according to this embodiment is a laminated film having a base layer and a surface layer on at least one side of the base layer.
[0016] [Base material layer] The substrate layer may be a layer containing a resin (e.g., a resin film), or a thin sheet of paper, nonwoven fabric, metal foil, etc. When the substrate layer is a layer containing a resin, for example, the resin may be a layer containing a polyester-based resin such as polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, polypropylene terephthalate, polypropylene naphthalate, polytrimethylene terephthalate, or polybutylene terephthalate; a polyolefin-based resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene; a polystyrene-based resin; an acetylcellulose-based resin such as triacetyl cellulose; an acrylic resin such as polymethyl methacrylate; a polyurethane resin; a polycarbonate resin; a polyamide-based resin; or a polyvinyl chloride-based resin.
[0017] When the base layer is a layer containing a resin, it may contain only one type of the above resin, or may contain two or more types in combination. From the viewpoint of processability of the surface layer, the base layer in the release film of this embodiment is preferably a layer containing at least one selected from the group consisting of polyester resins, polyolefin resins, and polystyrene resins as a main component, and from the viewpoint of adhesion to the surface layer (and adhesion to another layer if another layer is interposed between the surface layer and the base layer), it is more preferably a layer containing at least one selected from the group consisting of polyester resins and polyolefin resins as a main component.
[0018] In the present invention and this specification, the term "main component" means a component that is contained in an amount of 50% by mass or more, and the proportion of the main component is preferably 70% by mass or more, more preferably 80% by mass or more, even more preferably 90% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 95% by mass or more. The proportion of the main component may be 100% by mass.
[0019] The base layer may contain additives, similar to the surface layer described later. The types and components of the additives are the same as those described in the surface layer section below, and therefore will not be described here.
[0020] The substrate layer may be a layer formed of any of an unstretched film, a uniaxially stretched film, and a biaxially stretched film. From the viewpoints of processability, transparency, and dimensional stability, the substrate layer is preferably a layer formed of a biaxially stretched film.
[0021] The thickness of the substrate layer is preferably 15 μm or more, more preferably 20 μm or more, from the viewpoint of processability. The thickness of the substrate layer is preferably 125 μm or less, more preferably 50 μm or less, from the viewpoint of handleability during product use. The thickness of the substrate layer is measured using a micrometer (JIS B-7502) in accordance with JIS C-2151, specifically by the method described in the examples.
[0022] To enhance the adhesion between the substrate layer and the surface layer described below, one or both surfaces of the substrate layer may be subjected to a surface treatment, as desired. Examples of the surface treatment include roughening treatments such as sandblasting or solvent treatment, corona discharge treatment, plasma treatment, chromic acid treatment, flame treatment, hot air treatment, and surface oxidation treatments such as ozone or ultraviolet irradiation treatment.
[0023] [Surface layer] The release film of this embodiment has a surface layer on a base layer. The surface layer is a layer for imparting release properties to the release film. The surface layer may be formed on the base layer with various layers, such as an adhesive layer, interposed between the surface layer and the base layer, but it is preferable that the surface layer is formed so that the main surface of the surface layer is in contact with the main surface of the base layer.
[0024] The main component forming the surface layer is a resin component. The resin component includes a modified acrylic resin (A) having an alkyl component and a crosslinkable functional group, a resin (B) different from the modified acrylic resin (A), and a crosslinking agent (D). That is, the surface layer is composed of a cured product of a resin composition including the modified acrylic resin (A) having an alkyl component and a crosslinkable functional group, the resin (B) different from the modified acrylic resin (A), and the crosslinking agent (D). The modified acrylic resin (A), the resin (B) different from the modified acrylic resin (A), and the crosslinking agent (D) are described in detail below.
[0025] <Modified acrylic resin (A)> The modified acrylic resin (A) having an alkyl component and a crosslinkable functional group is a resin having an alkyl group as a side chain on an acrylic resin main chain. The modified acrylic resin (A) contains at least a structural unit represented by the following general formula (I) (formed from a monomer a described below): [ka]
[0026] In general formula (I), R 1 represents a methyl group or a hydrogen atom, and R 2 represents an alkyl group having 10 to 18 carbon atoms.
[0027] In the general formula (I), the alkyl group R 2 The number of carbon atoms is 10 to 18. If the number of carbon atoms is less than 9, it is generally difficult to make the modified acrylic resin (A) exhibit releasability. On the other hand, if the number of carbon atoms exceeds 18, the crystallinity becomes high, and the peeling force becomes too high, resulting in poor release performance as a release film. When the modified acrylic resin (A) has a long-chain alkyl group having 10 to 18 carbon atoms, the release performance becomes excellent. In order to improve the release performance, 2 is preferably a linear alkyl group. 2 The number of carbon atoms in R is preferably 12 to 18, and more preferably 12 to 14. 2has 12 to 1 carbon atoms Straight chain alkyl groups having 8 carbon atoms are even more preferred, and straight chain alkyl groups having 12 to 14 carbon atoms are particularly preferred.

The number of crosslinkable functional groups may be one or two or more. Furthermore, one type of crosslinkable functional group may be contained alone, or two or more types may be contained.
[0029] The modified acrylic resin (A) is a polymer obtained by polymerizing at least a monomer a (an acrylic monomer having a carbon-carbon unsaturated double bond and an alkyl group having 10 to 18 carbon atoms in one molecule) that forms the structural unit represented by the general formula (I). The modified acrylic resin (A) may be a copolymer obtained by copolymerizing the monomer a with at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of the below-described monomer b (a monomer having a carbon-carbon unsaturated double bond and a crosslinkable functional group in one molecule), monomer c (an acrylic monomer having a carbon-carbon unsaturated double bond and an alkyl group having 1 to 9 or 19 or more carbon atoms in one molecule), and monomer d (a monomer different from the monomers a, b, and c that is copolymerizable with at least one of the monomers a, b, and c). In particular, a copolymer obtained by copolymerizing at least the monomer a and the monomer b is preferred as the modified acrylic resin (A).

[0031] From the viewpoints of reducing the difference in peel strength before and after heating and further making it difficult for the components of the surface layer to migrate to the article, the content of the structural units derived from the monomer a in the modified acrylic resin (A) is preferably about 50 to 99.99 parts by mass, more preferably about 70 to 99.9 parts by mass, even more preferably about 85 to 99.8 parts by mass, and still more preferably about 85 to 99.5 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the total structural units contained in the modified acrylic resin (A). Only one type of monomer a may be used, or two or more types may be mixed and used.
[0032] [Monomer b] Monomer b is a monomer having a carbon-carbon unsaturated double bond and a crosslinkable functional group in one molecule. Because monomer b has a crosslinkable functional group, it can be suitably bonded to a resin (B) different from the modified acrylic resin (A) via a crosslinking agent (D) described below, thereby reducing the difference in peel strength between before and after heating of the release film and further suppressing the migration of surface layer components to the article.
[0033] Examples of crosslinkable functional groups (reactive functional groups) include carboxyl groups, isocyano groups, epoxy groups, N-methylol groups, N-alkoxymethyl groups, hydroxy groups, amino groups, thiol groups, and hydrolyzable silyl groups. Monomer b may be used alone or in combination of two or more types. Furthermore, the number of crosslinkable functional groups in monomer b may be one or two or more.

[0069] By including the resin (B) in the surface layer, the alkyl groups of the modified acrylic resin (A) can be easily segregated to the surface by taking advantage of the difference in compatibility with the modified acrylic resin (A), thereby reducing the difference in peel strength before and after heating and making it difficult for the components of the surface layer to migrate to the article.

When the number average molecular weight of the resin (B) is within the above range, the network structure tends to become dense when the surface layer is crosslinked with the crosslinking agent (D), and segregation of the modified acrylic resin (A) having an alkyl component and a crosslinkable functional group to the peel surface tends to occur.

[0114] [T-peel peeling force] At room temperature (25°C), a 50mm wide x 200mm long polyester adhesive tape (Nitto Denko Corporation No. 31B tape, acrylic adhesive) was applied to the surface of the surface layer of the release film by rolling a 2kg roller twice. The resulting film was heat-treated at 160°C for 90 seconds and then left to stand for 20 hours at a temperature of 70°C and humidity of 50%. Next, at room temperature (25°C), a 25mm wide sample was cut from the resulting film and used as the measurement sample. A T-peel test was performed at a speed of 1000mm / min using a tensile tester (e.g., Minebea Co., Ltd.'s Technograph TGI-1kN universal tensile tester), and the peel strength was measured. The value measured in this way was the T-peel peel strength (T-peel peel strength before heating).
[0115] Furthermore, it is preferable that the difference between the T-peel peel strength after heating and the T-peel peel strength before heating is small, and the value of (T-peel peel strength after heating) - (T-peel peel strength before heating) is preferably -0.20 to +0.20, more preferably -0.10 to +0.10, even more preferably -0.08 to +0.05, and particularly preferably -0.04 to +0.02.

[0116] [T-peel peeling force after heating] In a room temperature (25°C) environment, a 50mm wide x 200mm long polyester adhesive tape (Nitto Denko Corporation No. 31B tape, acrylic adhesive) is applied to the surface of the surface layer of the release film by rolling a 2kg roller back and forth twice to obtain a pre-treated adhesive product. The adhesive product is then heat-treated at 160°C for 90 seconds. Note that a hot air dryer is used for the heat treatment. Here, heat treatment at 160°C for 90 seconds means that the adhesive product is placed in a hot air dryer set at 160°C. Next, a weight is placed on the adhesive product so that a load of 5KPa is applied, and the product is left to stand for 20 hours in an environment of 70°C and 50% humidity. Next, in a room temperature environment (25°C), a sample cut to a width of 25 mm from the obtained film is used as a measurement sample, and a T-peel peel is performed at a speed of 1000 mm / min using a tensile tester (for example, a Technograph TGI-1kN universal tensile tester manufactured by Minebea Co., Ltd.), and the peel force at that time is measured. The value measured in this way is the T-peel peel force after heating.

In addition, when the above-mentioned adherend has an adhesive layer (for example, a solvent-based, emulsion-based, or hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive layer), the release film of this embodiment may be attached to the adherend so that the surface layer of the release film of this embodiment is bonded to the adhesive layer. The method for attaching the release film of this embodiment to an object is not particularly limited. The release film of this embodiment may be attached to the object by, for example, cutting the release film appropriately according to the area to be attached, or if both the release film of this embodiment and the object to which it is attached are wound up in a roll, they may be attached by roll-to-roll bonding.

[0123] [T-peel peeling force] A 50 mm wide x 200 mm long polyester adhesive tape (No. 31B tape, acrylic adhesive, manufactured by Nitto Denko Corporation) was applied to the surface of the film on the surface layer side of the peelable film by rolling a 2 kg roller back and forth twice to obtain a pre-treated adhesive product. Next, a weight was placed on the patch so that a load of 5 KPa was applied, and the patch was left to stand in an environment of 70°C and 50% humidity for 20 hours. Next, at room temperature, each of the resulting treated adhesive films was cut into 25 mm wide samples to be used as measurement samples. A T-peel test was performed at a speed of 1000 mm / min using a peel tester (Minebea Co., Ltd., Technograph TGI-1kN universal tensile tester), and the peel strength was measured. Each measurement was performed three times, and the average value was used as the T-peel strength (T-peel strength before heating) of each release film. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0124] [T-peel peeling force after heating] A 50 mm wide x 200 mm long polyester adhesive tape (No. 31B tape, acrylic adhesive, manufactured by Nitto Denko Corporation) was applied to the surface of the film on the surface layer side of the peelable film by rolling a 2 kg roller back and forth twice to obtain a pre-treated adhesive product. The patch was then subjected to a heat treatment at 160°C for 90 seconds. A hot air dryer was used for the heat treatment. Here, the heat treatment at 160°C for 90 seconds means that the patch was placed in a hot air dryer set at 160°C. Next, a weight was placed on the patch to apply a load of 5 KPa, and the patch was left to stand for 20 hours in an environment of 70°C and 50% humidity. Next, the T-peel peel strength after heating was obtained using the same method as the measurement and calculation method for T-peel peel strength in the above section [T-peel peel strength]. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0125] [Evaluation of residual adhesion rate] The polyester adhesive tape used in measuring the T-peel peel strength of the surface layer side of each release film in the above [T-peel peel strength] (the polyester adhesive tape after peeling during the above measurement) was attached to a stainless steel plate (SUS plate) by rolling a 2 kg roller back and forth twice. Next, a T-peel peel test was performed on the attached product having the stainless steel plate obtained by the above attachment at a speed of 1000 mm / min, and the peel strength (X) at that time was measured. On the other hand, a T-peel test was carried out in the same manner as in the above [T-peel peel force], except that a polyester adhesive tape was attached to the surface of a Teflon sheet (skived tape MSF-100, 100 μm thick, manufactured by Chukoh Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) instead of the film surface on the surface layer side of the release film, and the polyester adhesive tape after the peel test was attached to a stainless steel plate (SUS plate) by rolling a 2 kg roller back and forth twice. Next, a T-peel test was carried out on the attached product having the stainless steel plate obtained by the above attachment at a speed of 1000 mm / min, and the peel force (Y) at that time was measured. Next, the residual adhesion rate was calculated using the following formula. The smaller the residual adhesion rate, the more easily the components of the surface layer of the release film are evaluated to migrate to the polyester pressure-sensitive adhesive tape. A residual adhesion rate of 100% means that the components of the surface layer of the release film have not migrated to the polyester pressure-sensitive adhesive tape to the same extent as the components of the surface of the Teflon sheet have not migrated to the polyester pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, and is the most preferable release film according to this embodiment. The results are shown in Table 1. Residual adhesion rate (%)=(X) / (Y)×100
[0126] In the release film according to this embodiment, the residual adhesion rate is preferably 84% or more, more preferably 87% or more, even more preferably 90% or more, even more preferably 93% or more, and particularly preferably 97% or more. The residual adhesion rate may be 100%.
