Known decoration methods include insert method, thermal lamination method, and transfer method. In addition, the hard coat layer is generally made of a compound having a radical polymerizable group. and a photopolymerization initiator, and curing the curable composition by radical polymerization. However, when a hard coat layer is used to protect the surface, abrasion resistance is reduced. Although this improves the strength and scratch resistance, it reduces the elongation during molding and is therefore not suitable for decorative applications. In addition, the substrate and hard coat layer must be separated to prevent them from peeling off during processing. Adhesion to the adhesive layer is also an issue.

Reference 3 describes a hard coating agent for molding, Reference 4 describes a decorative sheet for automobile interiors, and Reference 5 describes a thermal transfer Decorative hard coat is printed directly onto the hard coat layer using a thermal transfer printing method with a photo printer.

[0099] [Example 1] The coating liquid (active energy ray curable composition) shown in Table 1 below was used as a substrate and subjected to corona treatment. The corona treated surface of the easily molded polyester film (thickness: 100 μm) was coated with a bar coater. The coating was applied using a coating solution so that the coating thickness after drying would be 5 μm, and then heated and dried at 80°C for 2 minutes. After that, it was exposed to a high-pressure mercury lamp in an air atmosphere with an integrated light intensity of 300 mJ / cm 2 , illuminance 200mW / cm 2 (High-power UV device manufactured by Eye Graphics Co., Ltd. (Model: US5-X1802 UV rays are irradiated on the UV conveyor of the -X1202) to form a cured product (cured film) and laminate obtained.
[0100] The resulting laminate was excellent in abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, elongation, and adhesion. The properties are shown in Table 2 below.
[0101] [Examples 2 to 8] The same as in Example 1 except that the coating agent composition was changed to the coating agent composition shown in Table 1. The laminate thus obtained had excellent abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, and The extensibility, adhesion, and tackiness were all good. The properties of the resulting laminate are shown in Table 2 below.
[0102] [Comparative Examples 1 to 7] The same as in Example 1 except that the coating agent composition was changed to the coating agent composition shown in Table 1. The properties of the resulting laminate are shown in Table 2 below. As shown in the figure, the results showed poor properties such as abrasion resistance and elongation. Since the resin does not have a double bond or a hydroxyl group, it is inferior in abrasion resistance and adhesion to the substrate. Since polyfunctional (meth)acrylate was used instead of fat B, the tackiness was poor. Comparative Examples 4 and 5 did not contain Resin B, and therefore the chemical resistance was insufficient. In comparison, Comparative Example 5 does not contain a silicone-based leveling agent having a radical polymerizable functional group. In Comparative Examples 6 and 7, Resin A was not included, and therefore the extensibility was poor. was inferior.
