[0007] <Terminology> In the present specification, for example, the expression "A to B" means A or more and B or less.

[0008] The following describes in detail the embodiments of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to these, and various modifications are possible without departing from the spirit of the invention. The various features shown in the following embodiments can be combined with each other. Furthermore, each feature can be an invention independently.

[0009] <Structure of bundling protection tape> The binding protection tape according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a substrate and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed on one side of the substrate. Each component will be described in detail below.

[0010] <Base material> The substrate according to one embodiment of the present invention is composed of a resin composition containing a polyvinyl chloride resin, a plasticizer, a filler, and a polyorganosiloxane, in which the content of the polyorganosiloxane is 1 to 10 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the polyvinyl chloride resin.

[0011] <Polyvinyl chloride resin> In one embodiment of the present invention, the polyvinyl chloride resin preferably has an average degree of polymerization of 1000 to 1500, and two or more polyvinyl chloride resins with different average degrees of polymerization may be used. If the average degree of polymerization is less than 1000, the entanglement of polymer chains may be insufficient, making it difficult to obtain sufficient strength (abrasion resistance). If the average degree of polymerization is higher than 1500, gelation may be difficult, which may result in poor film formability.

[0012] <Plasticizer> The plasticizer used in one embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it can impart flexibility to the substrate. Examples include trimellitic acid esters, adipate esters, phthalate esters, epoxy-based plasticizers, isophthalate esters, terephthalate esters, and phosphate-based plasticizers. Phthalate esters are preferred from the viewpoints of their plasticizing effect on polyvinyl chloride resins and minimal bleed-out. These plasticizers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0013] <Phthalate esters> Examples of phthalate ester plasticizers in one embodiment of the present invention include DINP (diisononyl phthalate), DHP (diheptyl phthalate), DOP (di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate), n-DOP (di-n-octyl phthalate), and diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP). From the viewpoints of plasticizing effect on polyvinyl chloride resin, less bleed-out, and less impact on the human body, diesters of phthalic acid and alcohols having 9 to 10 carbon atoms, such as DINP (diisononyl phthalate) and diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP), are preferred. These plasticizers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0014] In one embodiment of the present invention, the content of the plasticizer is preferably 38 to 50 parts by mass, more preferably 40 to 48 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of polyvinyl chloride resin. Specifically, for example, 38, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 48, or 50 parts by mass is preferred, and may be within a range between any two of the values ​​exemplified here. By using 38 parts by mass or more of the plasticizer, the flexibility of the substrate is improved, and for example, the conformability when wrapped around an electric wire or the like is improved, thereby reducing the occurrence of lifting in the bundling protection tape. By using 50 parts by mass or less of the plasticizer, the abrasion resistance of the substrate is improved, resulting in good protective performance. When a plasticizer is used in combination, the content of the plasticizer means the total amount of the plasticizer used in combination.

[0015] <Filler> The filler in one embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it can increase the amount of the base material and improve hardness. For example, inorganic fillers are preferred from the viewpoint of achieving both reinforcing effect and flexibility.

From the viewpoint of achieving both reinforcing effect and flexibility, calcium carbonate, silica, and carbon black are preferred. These fillers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0017] In one embodiment of the present invention, the content of the filler is preferably 10 to 60 parts by mass, more preferably 20 to 40 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of polyvinyl chloride resin. Specifically, the content is, for example, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or 60 parts by mass, and may be within a range between any two of the values ​​exemplified here. By using 10 parts by mass or more of the filler, the abrasion resistance of the substrate is improved, resulting in good protective performance. By using 60 parts by mass or less of the filler, the flexibility of the substrate is improved, and the improved conformability when wrapped around, for example, an electric wire can be improved, thereby reducing the occurrence of lifting in the bundling protection tape. When a filler is used in combination, the content of the filler means the total amount of the fillers used in combination.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the polyorganosiloxane is preferably a methyl methacrylate-modified polyorganosiloxane in which methyl methacrylate is copolymerized with the side chain of polyorganosiloxane, from the viewpoint of dispersibility in polyvinyl chloride resin and durability of sliding properties.

[0023] <Weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of acrylic-modified polyorganosiloxane> In one embodiment of the present invention, the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of the acrylic-modified polyorganosiloxane is preferably 300,000 to 500,000, and more preferably 350,000 to 450,000. Specifically, for example, it may be 300, 35, 38, 40, 42, 45, or 500,000, and may be within a range between any two of the values ​​exemplified here. By making the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of the acrylic-modified polyorganosiloxane 300,000 or more, it is possible to improve the film-forming properties of the substrate during its production and its stability during storage. By making the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) 500,000 or less, it is possible to achieve uniform dispersion in the polyvinyl chloride resin.

[0024] In one embodiment of the present invention, the weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the acrylic-modified polyorganosiloxane can be measured, for example, using gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The weight average molecular weight (Mw) can be controlled, for example, by adjusting the weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the polyorganosiloxane. When an acrylic-modified polyorganosiloxane is used in combination, the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) refers to the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) when the acrylic-modified polyorganosiloxane used in combination is included.

[0025] <Linear polyorganosiloxane> The polyorganosiloxane in one embodiment of the present invention may be a linear polyorganosiloxane in which the siloxane bonds of the main chain are linearly bonded. Examples of linear polyorganosiloxanes include linear polydimethylsiloxane, linear polymethylphenylsiloxane, and linear polymethylhydrogensiloxane. From the viewpoint of sliding properties, linear polydimethylsiloxane is preferred. These other linear polyorganosiloxanes may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0026] <Crosslinked polyorganosiloxane> In one embodiment of the present invention, the polyorganosiloxane may have a structure in which linear polyorganosiloxane is crosslinked, or a structure in which siloxane bonds are crosslinked in a three-dimensional network form, from the viewpoint of film-forming property of the substrate during the production of the substrate and stability during storage.From the viewpoint of sliding property, polyorganosiloxane in which linear polyorganosiloxane is crosslinked is preferred. These crosslinked polyorganosiloxanes may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0027] In one embodiment of the present invention, the content of polyorganosiloxane is 1 to 10 parts by mass, more preferably 3 to 7 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of polyvinyl chloride resin. Specifically, the content may be, for example, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 parts by mass, and may be within a range between any two of the values ​​exemplified herein. By setting the content of polyorganosiloxane to 1 part by mass or more, the abrasion resistance of the substrate is improved, resulting in good protective performance. By setting the content of polyorganosiloxane to 10 parts by mass or less, the flexibility of the substrate is improved, and the improved conformability when wrapped around, for example, an electric wire can be improved, thereby reducing the occurrence of lifting in the bundling protection tape. Furthermore, plate-out (a phenomenon in which part of the resin composition separates and adheres to the molding machine) can be prevented during film formation. When polyorganosiloxanes are used in combination, the content of polyorganosiloxanes refers to the total amount of polyorganosiloxanes used in combination.

[0028] <Other additives> Furthermore, the resin composition of the present embodiment may contain other additives such as colorants, stabilizers, antioxidants, ultraviolet absorbers, and lubricants, as needed, within the scope of not impairing the effects of the present invention.

[0029] <Base material thickness> The substrate thickness of the bundling protection tape in this embodiment varies depending on the intended use and application, but is preferably 190 to 330 μm, more preferably 190 to 250 μm. Specifically, the thickness may be, for example, 190, 195, 200, 205, 210, 220, 250, 280, 300, or 330 μm, and may be within a range between any two of the values ​​exemplified here. By setting the substrate thickness to 190 μm or more, the abrasion resistance of the substrate is improved, resulting in good protective performance. By setting the substrate thickness to 330 μm or less, the flexibility of the substrate is improved, and the improved conformability when wrapped around, for example, an electric wire can be improved, thereby reducing the occurrence of lifting in the bundling protection tape.

[0030] <Substrate structure> The structure of the substrate of the binding protection tape in this embodiment is preferably a single layer structure from the viewpoint of simplifying the manufacturing process and manufacturing equipment.

[0031] <Method of manufacturing the substrate> The resin composition for producing the substrate according to this embodiment can be obtained by melt-kneading polyvinyl chloride resin, plasticizer, filler, and polyorganosiloxane, as well as, if necessary, heat stabilizers, light absorbers, pigments, and other additives. The melt-kneading method is not particularly limited, but various mixers and kneaders equipped with heating devices, such as twin-screw extruders, continuous and batch kneaders, rolls, and Banbury mixers, can be used. The resin composition is mixed to uniformly disperse, and the resulting mixture is molded into the substrate using conventional molding methods such as the calendar method, T-die method, and inflation method. A calendar molding machine is preferred for productivity, color change, and shape uniformity. Known roll arrangements, such as L-type, reverse L-type, and Z-type, can be used for calendar molding. The roll temperature is typically set to 150 to 200°C, preferably 155 to 190°C.

[0032] <Dynamic friction coefficient of substrate surface> In one embodiment of the present invention, when the substrate is fixed to a measurement stage with Nitto Denko Corporation's No. 5000NS double-sided tape, the coefficient of kinetic friction of the substrate surface, measured using an R contactor based on ASTM D1894 under conditions of a load of 200 g and a test speed of 2.5 mm / sec, is preferably 0.06 to 0.26, more preferably 0.10 to 0.25. Specifically, for example, 0.06, 0.08, 0.10, 0.12, 0.14, 0.16, 0.18, 0.20, 0.22, 0.24, or 0.26 is preferred, and may be within a range between any two of the values ​​exemplified here. By ensuring that the coefficient of kinetic friction of the substrate surface is 0.06 or higher, the flexibility of the bundling protection tape is improved, and the improved followability when wrapped around, for example, an electric wire can be improved, thereby reducing the occurrence of lifting of the bundling protection tape. By making the coefficient of dynamic friction of the substrate surface 0.26 or less, the abrasion resistance of the bundling protection tape is improved, and good protection performance is obtained.

[0033] The coefficient of dynamic friction of the substrate surface can be controlled by adjusting the type and content of polyorganosiloxane contained in the resin composition used to produce the substrate.

[0034] <Measurement of the dynamic friction coefficient of the substrate surface> The dynamic friction coefficient of the substrate surface of the substrate according to this embodiment can be measured, for example, using an automatic friction and wear analyzer TS-501 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd. according to the following procedure. The substrate sample is cut to a width of 50 mm and a length of 100 mm, and fixed to the sample stage using double-sided tape (Nitto Denko Corporation No. 5000NS). An R contact based on ASTM D1894 is placed on the back of the bonded substrate sample, and the dynamic friction coefficient is measured under conditions of a load of 200 g and a test speed of 2.5 mm / sec (room temperature 23°C, humidity 50% RH).

[0035] <Tensile modulus converted into thickness of substrate> For the substrate according to this embodiment, the tensile modulus of elasticity, calculated as the thickness of the substrate, is preferably 6 to 9 N / mm, and more preferably 7 to 9 N / mm. Specifically, it may be, for example, 6, 7, 8, or 9 N / mm, and may be within a range between any two of the values ​​exemplified here. By setting the tensile modulus of elasticity, calculated as the thickness of the substrate, to 6 N / mm or more, a good balance with the protective performance of the substrate can be achieved. By setting the tensile modulus of elasticity, calculated as the thickness of the substrate, to 9 N / mm or less, the flexibility of the substrate is improved, and the improved conformability when the binding protection tape is wound around, for example, an electric wire can be improved, thereby reducing the occurrence of lifting of the binding protection tape. The tensile modulus of elasticity converted into thickness of the substrate can be controlled by adjusting the type and content of the sliding property imparting agent contained in the resin composition used to produce the substrate.

[0036] <Measurement of tensile modulus converted into substrate thickness> The tensile modulus of elasticity of the substrate according to this embodiment, converted into thickness, can be obtained from the value of the tensile modulus of elasticity by the following procedure. A 19 mm wide, 200 mm long binding tape test piece is clamped and fixed in the chuck of a tensile tester with a chuck distance of 100 mm. The test piece is pulled at a speed of 300 mm / min in an environment of room temperature 23°C and relative humidity 50% RH, and the tensile stress and strain are measured. The ratio of tensile stress to strain between 0.01 and 0.05% strain is calculated by linear regression and the value is taken as the tensile modulus. The product of the tensile modulus thus obtained and the total thickness of the tape (unit: mm) is defined as the tensile modulus converted into thickness.

[0037] <Adhesive layer> The adhesive of the adhesive layer of the bundling protection tape according to this embodiment is preferably a rubber-based adhesive, and may be either a solvent-based or emulsion-based adhesive. The rubber-based adhesive preferably contains one or more rubbers selected from natural rubber or synthetic rubber and a tackifier resin, and more preferably a mixture of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, and tackifier resin. The mixing ratio of the tackifier resin is preferably 50 to 150 parts by mass of tackifier resin per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component of the mixture containing natural rubber and synthetic rubber.

[0038] Examples of the natural rubber and synthetic rubber include natural rubber-methyl methacrylate copolymer latex, styrene-butadiene copolymer, acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer, methyl methacrylate-butadiene copolymer, etc. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0039] The tackifying resin can be selected in consideration of the softening point, compatibility with each component, etc. Examples include emulsions of terpene resin, rosin resin, hydrogenated rosin resin, coumarone-indene resin, styrene-based resin, aliphatic petroleum resin, alicyclic petroleum resin, terpene-phenol resin, xylene-based resin, and other aliphatic hydrocarbon resins or aromatic hydrocarbon resins. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0040] The rubber-based adhesive can be freely selected from solvent-based and emulsion-based adhesives, but emulsion-based adhesives that generate less VOC are preferred.

[0041] <Primer layer>

[0042] Furthermore, if necessary, the binding protection tape of this embodiment may have a primer layer between the substrate and the adhesive layer for the purpose of improving adhesion between the substrate and the adhesive layer, within a range that does not impair the effects of the present invention. In this case, as described below, the thickness of the primer layer is usually 0.1 to 1 μm, more preferably 0.3 to 0.5 μm, and it is preferable that the thickness of the primer layer is smaller than the thickness of the substrate.

[0043] The primer for forming the primer layer is preferably one containing 25 to 300 parts by mass of an acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer with 100 parts by mass of a graft polymer obtained by graft polymerizing methyl methacrylate onto natural rubber.

[0044] The graft polymer used in the primer, obtained by graft polymerizing methyl methacrylate onto natural rubber, is preferably obtained by graft polymerizing 70 to 50% by mass of natural rubber with 30 to 50% by mass of methyl methacrylate. If the proportion of methyl methacrylate in the graft polymer is less than 30% by mass, the adhesion between the methyl methacrylate and the film substrate may be poor, resulting in interlayer delamination of the bundling protection tape. Furthermore, if the proportion of methyl methacrylate is more than 50% by mass, the primer itself may harden and be unable to follow the deformation of the film substrate, resulting in interlayer delamination of the bundling protection tape.

[0045] The acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymers used in the primer include medium nitrile types (25 to 30% by mass of acrylonitrile, 75 to 70% by mass of butadiene), medium-high nitrile types (31 to 35% by mass of acrylonitrile, 69 to 65% by mass of butadiene), high nitrile types (36 to 43% by mass of acrylonitrile, 64 to 57% by mass of butadiene), etc. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more types.

[0046] <Method of manufacturing the bundling protection tape> The bundling protection tape according to this embodiment can be produced, for example, by coating one side of a substrate with a primer, thoroughly removing the solvent in a drying oven, and then coating with a pressure-sensitive adhesive. Similarly to the primer, the solvent is thoroughly removed in a drying oven, and then the pressure-sensitive adhesive is coated again to obtain a bundling protection tape. The primer coating method can be a gravure coating method, a spray coating method, a kiss roll coating method, a bar coating method, or a knife coating method. The pressure-sensitive adhesive coating method can be a comma coating method, a lip die coating method, a gravure coating method, a roll coating method, or a slot die coating method. The thickness of the primer layer is typically 0.1 to 1 μm, more preferably 0.3 to 0.5 μm. The thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer varies depending on the intended use and application, but is typically 5 to 50 μm, more preferably 10 to 30 μm.

[0047] <Dynamic friction coefficient on the backside of the bundling protection tape substrate> In another embodiment of the present invention, when the bundling protection tape is fixed to a measurement stage via the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, the kinetic friction coefficient of the back surface of the bundling protection tape substrate, as measured using an R contactor according to ASTM D1894 under conditions of a load of 200 g and a test speed of 2.5 mm / sec, is preferably 0.13 to 0.60, more preferably 0.23 to 0.58. Specifically, for example, 0.13, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45, 0.50, 0.55, or 0.60 is preferred, and may be within a range between any two of the values ​​exemplified here. By ensuring that the kinetic friction coefficient of the back surface of the bundling protection tape substrate is 0.13 or higher, the flexibility of the bundling protection tape is improved, and the improved followability when wrapped around, for example, an electric wire can be improved, thereby reducing the occurrence of lifting of the bundling protection tape. By setting the dynamic friction coefficient of the back surface of the bundling protection tape substrate to 0.60 or less, the abrasion resistance of the bundling protection tape is improved, and good protective performance is obtained. The back surface of the substrate of the bundling and protection tape refers to the surface of the substrate of the bundling and protection tape opposite to the surface on which the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed.

[0048] For example, when the thickness of the substrate is the same, the kinetic friction coefficient of the back surface of the substrate of the bundling protection tape tends to increase as the kinetic friction coefficient of the substrate surface increases. Therefore, the kinetic friction coefficient of the back surface of the substrate of the bundling protection tape can be controlled by adjusting the kinetic friction coefficient of the substrate surface within the above-mentioned range. When a bundling protection tape is formed by providing a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on the substrate, the kinetic friction coefficient of the back surface of the substrate of the bundling protection tape tends to be higher than the kinetic friction coefficient of the substrate surface. However, due to the above-mentioned relationship, the kinetic friction coefficient of the back surface of the substrate of the bundling protection tape can be controlled within a desired range by adjusting the kinetic friction coefficient of the substrate surface within a predetermined range. Furthermore, as the thickness of the substrate increases, the effect of providing a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on the change in the kinetic friction coefficient of the back surface of the substrate of the bundling protection tape tends to decrease. Therefore, even when the thickness of the substrate is large, the kinetic friction coefficient of the back surface of the substrate of the bundling protection tape can be controlled by adjusting the kinetic friction coefficient of the substrate surface within the above-mentioned range.

[0049] <Measurement of the dynamic friction coefficient on the back surface of the bundling protection tape substrate> The dynamic friction coefficient of the back surface of the substrate of the bundling protection tape according to this embodiment can be measured, for example, using an automatic friction and wear analyzer TS-501 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd. according to the following procedure. A bundling protection tape sample is cut to a width of 50 mm and a length of 100 mm, and fixed to a sample stage via the adhesive layer of the bundling protection tape sample. An R contact based on ASTM D1894 is placed on the back of the bonded protective tape sample, and the dynamic friction coefficient is measured under conditions of a load of 200 g and a test speed of 2.5 mm / sec (room temperature 23°C, humidity 50% RH).

[0050] <Applications of bundling protection tape> The bundling and protection tape according to this embodiment is suitably used, for example, as a bundling and protection tape for bundling high-voltage cables and wire harnesses in electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. [Example]

[0055] A primer was applied to one side of the substrate using the gravure method, and the solvent was thoroughly removed in a drying oven. The adhesive was then applied using the comma method, and the solvent was thoroughly removed in the same manner as for the primer. The resulting bond protection tape had a dried thickness of 0.3 μm for the primer layer and 20 μm for the adhesive layer.

[0056] <Physical properties of the substrate and bundling protection tape> The physical properties of the substrate and the bundling protection tape were measured and evaluated under the following measurement conditions. The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2. In the tables, PVC stands for polyvinyl chloride resin, DINP stands for diisononyl phthalate, MMA stands for methyl methacrylate, and PDMS stands for polydimethylsiloxane.

[0057] <Dynamic friction coefficient of substrate surface> Measurement was carried out using an automatic friction and wear analyzer TS-501 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd. according to the following procedure. The substrate sample was cut to a width of 50 mm and a length of 100 mm and fixed to the sample stage using double-sided tape (Nitto Denko Corporation, No. 5000NS). An R contact based on ASTM D1894 was placed on the back of the bonded substrate sample, and the dynamic friction coefficient was measured under conditions of a load of 200 g and a test speed of 2.5 mm / sec (room temperature 23°C, humidity 50% RH).

[0058] <Dynamic friction coefficient on the back surface of the base material of the bundling protection tape> Measurement was carried out using an automatic friction and wear analyzer TS-501 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd. according to the following procedure. The bundling protection tape sample was cut to a width of 50 mm and a length of 100 mm, and was attached and fixed to the sample stage via the adhesive layer. An R contact based on ASTM D1894 was placed on the back of the bonded protective tape sample, and the dynamic friction coefficient was measured under conditions of a load of 200 g and a test speed of 2.5 mm / sec (room temperature 23°C, humidity 50% RH).

[0059] <Tensile modulus / Tensile modulus converted into thickness> A 19 mm wide, 200 mm long binding tape test piece was clamped and fixed in the chucks of a tensile tester with a chuck distance of 100 mm. The test piece was pulled at a speed of 300 mm / min in an environment of room temperature 23°C and relative humidity 50% RH, and the tensile stress and strain were measured. The ratio of tensile stress to strain between 0.01 and 0.05% strain was calculated by linear regression and used as the tensile modulus. The product of the tensile modulus and the total thickness of the tape (unit: mm) was taken as the tensile modulus converted into thickness.

[0060] <Hardness> The durometer A hardness of the substrate samples stacked to a thickness of 6 mm or more was measured using an Asker rubber hardness tester Type A (type A indenter based on ASTM D2240) manufactured by Kobunshi Keiki Co., Ltd. (room temperature 23°C, humidity 50% RH).

[0061] <Protection performance> The abrasion resistance was evaluated according to the following procedure. The test was conducted in accordance with ISO6722-1 (2001). The substrate sample was wrapped around a 10 mm diameter cylinder twice and secured with tape or the like. The sample surface was then abraded at a speed of 1500 mm / min using sandpaper made of fused alumina and 150 μm grit. The abrasion distance (mm) until a hole was created in the sample was measured (room temperature 23°C, humidity 50% RH). The abrasion distance (mm) until a hole was created in the sample was evaluated according to the following criteria. A substrate with an excellent abrasion distance evaluation has high abrasion resistance, and it is expected that a bundling protection tape manufactured using that substrate will achieve excellent protective performance. ◎: Wear distance is 1000mm or more ○: Wear distance is 800mm or more and less than 1000mm ×: Wear distance is less than 800 mm

[0062] <Flexibility> The wires were evaluated based on whether or not they floated when bound, according to the following procedure. A bundling protection tape sample was spirally wrapped around bundles of electric wires with diameters of 15 mm and 10 mm (half-wrapped) to bind them. When this bundled electric wire was wrapped around a mandrel with a diameter of 50 mm once, the presence or absence of lifting (gaps due to peeling) between the bundling protection tape sample and the electric wire bundle was confirmed. The lifting between the bundling protection tape sample and the electric wire bundle was evaluated according to the following criteria. ◎: No floating occurred with either 15mm or 10mm wire diameter ○: No floating with 15mm wire diameter, floating with 10mm wire diameter ×: Floating occurred for both 15mm and 10mm wire diameters

[0063] <Film-forming properties of substrate> The evaluation was carried out according to the following procedures and evaluation criteria. When the substrate was formed into a film using a calendar molding machine, the presence or absence of plate-out of polyorganosiloxane on the surface and the presence or absence of adhesion of the substrate film to the surface of the rubber roll were observed. ◎: Neither plate-out nor adhesion of the base film occurred ○: Plate-out and adhesion of the base film occurred slightly, but to an extent that did not pose a problem in manufacturing. ×: Plate-out and adhesion of the base film occurred
