[0010] [Figure 1] 1 is a schematic side view showing an example of a layer structure of a laminate of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0011] The terms used in the present invention have the following meanings. (Meth)acrylate is a general term for acrylate and methacrylate. Similarly, (meth)acrylic acid is a general term for acrylic acid and methacrylic acid, and (meth)acrylamide is a general term for acrylamide and methacrylamide. Furthermore, a (meth)acrylic polymer refers to a polymer primarily containing units based on (meth)acrylate, and a (meth)acrylic resin refers to a resin made of a (meth)acrylic polymer. The term "unit" refers collectively to an atomic group based on one molecule of the monomer formed directly by polymerizing the monomer, and an atomic group obtained by chemically converting a part of the atomic group after polymerization. The content (mol %) of each unit relative to the total units contained in the polymer can be determined by analyzing the polymer by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). The acid value and hydroxyl value are values ​​measured according to the method of JIS K 0070-3 (1992). Glass transition temperature (Tg) is the midpoint glass transition temperature of a polymer as measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. The softening temperature is a value measured in accordance with the method of JIS K 7196 (1991). The number average molecular weight (Mn) and weight average molecular weight (Mw) are values ​​measured by gel permeation chromatography using polystyrene as a standard substance.

[0012] The thickness of the laminate is a value measured using an eddy current film thickness meter. Examples of eddy current film thickness meters that can be used include the EDY-5000 manufactured by Sanko Electronics Co., Ltd. The thickness of each layer in the laminate can be calculated from the thickness ratio of each layer, which is obtained by observing the cross section of the laminate using a scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray analyzer, and the thickness of the laminate. The total light transmittance is a value measured using a D light source in accordance with JIS K 7361-1:1997. The mass of the solid content of a composition is the mass of the composition after removing the solvent from the composition if the composition contains a solvent. Note that components other than the solvent that make up the solid content of the composition are considered to be solids even if they are liquid. The mass of the solid content of a composition is determined as the mass remaining after heating 1 g of the composition at 130°C for 20 minutes.

[0013] The laminate of the present invention (hereinafter also referred to as the present laminate) has a base film and a clear layer, wherein the clear layer is a layer formed by curing a composition containing a fluorine-containing polymer having a hydroxyl group or a carboxyl group, a non-fluorine-containing polymer, and a curing agent having a functional group reactive with the hydroxyl group or the carboxyl group, wherein the fluorine-containing polymer has a hydroxyl value or acid value of 20 mgKOH / g or more, and the content of the fluorine-containing polymer in the composition is 30 mass% or less based on the total content of the fluorine-containing polymer and the non-fluorine-containing polymer.

[0014] The mechanism by which the present laminate having such a structure has excellent stretchability and solvent resistance is not entirely clear, but is thought to be as follows. That is, the laminate of the present invention has a clear layer. The composition used to form the clear layer contains a fluorine-containing polymer having a hydroxyl value or acid value of a predetermined value or more and a curing agent, and it is thought that the clear layer formed by curing of such a composition has good solvent resistance. Furthermore, the composition also contains a non-fluorine-containing polymer, and the content of the fluorine-containing polymer is specified to be a predetermined value or less relative to the total content of the fluorine-containing polymer and the non-fluorine-containing polymer. Because the content of the fluorine-containing polymer is a predetermined value or less, deterioration in flexibility caused by the fluorine-containing polymer in the clear layer formed by curing the composition is suppressed. Therefore, it is thought that when the laminate is stretched, breakage in the clear layer is unlikely to occur, and the laminate also has excellent stretchability.

[0015] First, the configuration of the present laminate will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a schematic side view showing the layer structure of a laminate 10 (the present laminate) according to one embodiment of the present invention. The laminate 10 has a bonding layer 12, a base film 14, and a clear layer 16, with each layer disposed in this order. When the bonding layer 12 of the laminate 10 is pressed onto an article to be surface protected, an article with the laminate is obtained in which the clear layer 16, base film 14, bonding layer 12, and article are arranged in this order. In this way, the clear layer 16 is located on the outermost surface of the article with the laminate.

Among these, PTMG is preferred as the polyoxyalkylene polyol. The Mn of the polyoxyalkylene polymer is preferably from 200 to 10,000, more preferably from 400 to 6,000, and particularly preferably from 600 to 2,000. The content of the polyoxyalkylene polymer is preferably from 0.5 to 70 mass %, more preferably from 1 to 30 mass %, particularly preferably from 3 to 15 mass %, based on the total mass of the non-fluorinated polymer.

[0049] Two or more types of non-fluorinated polymers may be used, and it is preferable to use two or more types.

[0051] The composition (f) includes a curing agent. The curing agent in the present invention has two or more functional groups reactive with hydroxyl groups or carboxyl groups in one molecule. When the curing agent reacts with the hydroxyl groups or carboxyl groups of the fluorine-containing polymer A and the hydroxyl groups of the non-fluorine-containing polymer, as desired, crosslinking occurs between the fluorine-containing polymers A, between the non-fluorine-containing polymers, and / or between the fluorine-containing polymer A and the non-fluorine-containing polymer, forming a clear layer.

[0052] The curing agent usually has 2 to 30 functional groups capable of reacting with a hydroxyl group or a carboxyl group. Specific examples of the curing agent include compounds having two or more isocyanate groups or epoxy groups in one molecule.

[0055] The polyisocyanate-based curing agent may be a compound in which two or more isocyanate groups of the above-mentioned polyisocyanate are blocked with a blocking agent. The isocyanate groups blocked with a blocking agent become isocyanate groups as the blocking agent is eliminated by heating during curing of composition (f), and these groups react with hydroxyl groups or carboxyl groups in the fluorinated polymer A or hydroxyl groups in the non-fluorinated polymer to crosslink the fluorinated polymer A and the non-fluorinated polymer. The blocking agent is a compound having active hydrogen, and specific examples thereof include alcohols, phenols, active methylenes, amines, imines, acid amides, lactams, oximes, pyrazoles, imidazoles, imidazolines, pyrimidines, and guanidines. In composition (f) containing a blocked polyisocyanate-based curing agent, the curing agent is unlikely to react with the fluorine-containing polymer A or the non-fluorine-containing polymer at room temperature, so that the composition (f) has a shelf life and is characterized by the absence of the need to mix the components to form composition (f) immediately before painting.

[0056] The content of the curing agent (for example, a polyisocyanate-based curing agent) in the composition (f) is preferably 5 to 50 mass %, more preferably 7 to 30 mass %, and particularly preferably 10 to 20 mass %, based on the total solid content of the composition (f).

[0057] Composition (f) may contain, as necessary, components other than the fluorine-containing polymer A, the non-fluorine-containing polymer, and the curing agent (hereinafter also referred to as additives). Examples of such components include curing catalysts, fillers (inorganic fillers such as silica, organic fillers such as resin beads, etc.), silicone compounds, colorants (dyes, organic pigments, inorganic pigments, luster pigments using metals or mica, etc.), ultraviolet absorbers, light stabilizers, matting agents, degassing agents, heat stabilizers, thickeners, dispersants, surfactants (such as fluorine-based surfactants), antistatic agents, rust inhibitors, silane coupling agents, antifouling agents, and stain-reducing treatment agents.

[0058] Among the above additives, composition (f) preferably contains a curing catalyst. The curing catalyst is a compound that promotes the formation of a crosslinked structure formed using a curing agent, and can be selected from known curing catalysts depending on the type of curing agent. Among them, the curing catalyst is preferably a tin catalyst (such as tin octoate, tributyltin laurate, or dibutyltin dilaurate) that promotes the reaction of isocyanate groups. Two or more curing catalysts may be used in combination.

When the composition (f) contains a silicone compound, the content of the silicone compound is preferably from 0.005 to 10% by mass, particularly preferably from 0.01 to 1% by mass, based on the total solid content of the composition (f).

Specific examples of light stabilizers include hindered amines and hindered phenols, with hindered amines being preferred. When the composition (f) contains a light stabilizer, the content of the light stabilizer is preferably from 0.05 to 10 mass %, particularly preferably from 0.5 to 5 mass %, based on the total solid content of the composition (f).

[0062] Composition (f) is preferably obtained by mixing a fluorine-containing polymer A, a non-fluorine-containing polymer, a curing agent, and, if necessary, at least one of the above-mentioned additives. In this case, composition (f) may contain a solvent. When composition (f) contains a solvent, the fluorine-containing polymer A and the curing agent may be dissolved or dispersed in the solvent. Composition (f) may be a powder type that does not contain a solvent. The solvent used is a solvent inert to the components contained in composition (f) (such as an organic solvent having no active hydrogen). For example, when a curing agent having an isocyanate group is contained as the curing agent, a solvent having no groups reactive with the isocyanate group, such as a hydroxyl group, is used. Furthermore, when a blocked polyisocyanate curing agent is used, composition (f) can be applied, dried, and the solvent removed, and then heated to crosslink the fluorine-containing polymer A and the non-fluorine-containing polymer, so a solvent having an active hydrogen such as a hydroxyl group can also be used.

[0063] When the composition (f) contains a solvent, the solvent is preferably an organic solvent. Specific examples of organic solvents include ketones, esters, and hydrocarbons. Two or more organic solvents may be used in combination. The content of the organic solvent in composition (f) is preferably 1 to 90 mass %, particularly preferably 10 to 35 mass %, based on the total mass of composition (f) from the viewpoints of storage stability and coating efficiency of the composition of the present invention.

[0064] A specific example of a method for forming a clear layer is a method in which composition (f) is applied to the surface on which the clear layer is to be formed to obtain a coating layer, and the obtained coating layer is cured to obtain a coating film. Specific examples of the coating method include methods using a spray, an applicator, a die coater, a bar coater, a roll coater, a comma coater, a roller brush, a paintbrush, and a spatula. When the composition (f) contains a solvent, after the composition (f) has been applied, it may be heated and dried to remove the solvent from the composition (f). The coating layer can be cured, for example, by heating, preferably at a heating temperature of 30 to 250°C, particularly preferably at 50 to 150°C. When the composition (f) is a so-called powder coating, the clear layer can also be formed by electrostatic coating or the like.

[0065] The clear layer may contain the fluorine-containing polymer A, the curing agent and the non-fluorine-containing polymer in a non-crosslinked state, but preferably contains them in a crosslinked state. The clear layer may also function as a design layer, which will be described later. In this case, if the clear layer contains a colorant or the like, a clear layer that also functions as a design layer can be obtained.

[0066] The thickness of the clear layer is preferably 0.5 to 200 μm, more preferably 1 to 50 μm, and particularly preferably 2 to 20 μm.

[0067] The present laminate preferably has a bonding layer from the viewpoint of adhesion to the article whose surface is to be protected. The bonding layer is a layer that bonds the laminate to an article, and preferably contains a bonding resin. Specific examples of bonding resins include adhesive resins, fusion resins, and pressure-sensitive adhesive resins. The bonding layer can be formed, for example, using a bonding resin or a composition containing a component that reacts with heat or the like to become a bonding resin. Hereinafter, a composition containing a component that reacts with heat or the like to become a bonding resin will also be referred to as composition (a). In the case of heat-fusible resins, the resin can be bonded to the surface by cooling and solidifying it while it is in contact with the surface of an article, whereas in the case of thermally crosslinkable resins, the resin can be thermally crosslinked while it is in contact with the surface of an article, and then bonded to the surface. Specific examples of the heat-fusible resin include partially crosslinked heat-fusible resins and thermoplastic resins with low softening temperatures. A bonding layer containing a heat-fusible resin can be formed using a heat-fusible resin or composition (a). For example, a bonding layer containing a heat-fusible urethane resin can be formed using composition (a) containing a polyol and a polyisocyanate.

[0068] The softening temperature of the heat-fusible resin is preferably 20 to 100°C, particularly preferably 25 to 90°C, from the viewpoint of the blocking resistance and moldability of the present laminate. The Mw of the heat-fusible resin is preferably 5,000 to 150,000, particularly preferably 6,000 to 130,000, from the viewpoint of film-forming properties and adhesiveness of the bonding layer. As the heat-fusible resin, heat-fusible urethane resin, (meth)acrylic resin, olefin resin, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate resin, butyral resin, etc. are preferred because of their excellent adhesiveness to three-dimensional molded products.

[0069] The bonding resin may be a thermally crosslinkable resin containing a base resin and a curing agent, such as a thermally crosslinkable urethane resin containing a solid polyol or a solid hydroxy-terminated polyurethane prepolymer, a solid polyisocyanate, or a solid blocked polyisocyanate, or an epoxy resin containing a solid polyepoxide and a solid epoxy resin curing agent. The hydroxy-terminated polyurethane prepolymer is a prepolymer having hydroxyl groups obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate with an excess equivalent of a polyol. The composition (a) may contain the above-mentioned thermocrosslinkable resin, or may contain the above-mentioned component that becomes the thermocrosslinkable resin.

[0070] The bonding layer may also function as a design layer, which will be described later. In this case, if the bonding layer contains a colorant or the like, the bonding layer can also function as a design layer. The bonding layer may contain components other than those described above, such as an ultraviolet absorber, a light stabilizer, a curing catalyst, an antioxidant, a surface conditioner, an anti-sagging agent, a thickener, an antifoaming agent, and a conductive filler.

[0071] The thickness of the bonding layer is preferably 1 to 1,000 μm, more preferably 4 to 80 μm, and particularly preferably 10 to 60 μm, from the viewpoint of film-forming properties and adhesiveness of the bonding layer. The components that may be contained in the composition (a) are the same as the components that may be contained in the bonding layer described above. The components that may be contained in the bonding resin and the bonding layer may be dissolved or dispersed in the composition (a) using a solvent such as water or an organic solvent.

[0072] In the example of FIG. 1, the laminate 10 has been described as having the bonding layer 12, but the laminate does not need to have a bonding layer as long as it can be attached to an article. In other words, the present laminate has at least a base film and a clear layer.

[0073] Although not shown in Fig. 1, the laminate may have a design layer to improve the design of the laminate. The design layer is a layer for imparting design to the article. The design layer is preferably disposed between the bonding layer and the clear layer. Specifically, when the laminate 10 in FIG. 1 has a design layer, examples of the arrangement include an arrangement in which the bonding layer 12, the design layer, the base film 14, and the clear layer 16 are arranged in this order, and an arrangement in which the bonding layer 12, the base film 14, the design layer, and the clear layer 16 are arranged in this order. The bonding layer, the base film, or the clear layer may also serve as the design layer, and in this case, the design layer does not need to be provided.

[0074] Specific examples of the design layer include a layer formed using a composition for forming a design layer, a layer formed by a printing method, and a layer formed by a metal vapor deposition method. Specific examples of components contained in the composition include binder resins (urethane resins, (meth)acrylic resins, etc.), colorants (dyes, organic pigments, inorganic pigments, luster pigments using metals or mica, etc.), and solvents (water, organic solvents, etc.). The layer formed by the printing method is formed using an ink (containing, for example, a binder resin, a colorant, and a solvent) suitable for each printing method, such as inkjet printing, screen printing, offset printing, and flexographic printing. The layer formed by metal vapor deposition is formed using a metal such as aluminum, indium, tin, etc. In view of the ease with which radio waves can pass and the suitability for use in automobiles, it is preferable that the layer be formed using indium. The design layer may contain components other than those mentioned above as needed, specifically the components listed in composition (a) and the components listed in composition (f) above. The thickness of the design layer may be appropriately set depending on the application.

[0075] The present laminate may have layers other than those described above, for example, layers for increasing the adhesion between the layers may be provided between the layers.

[0076] There are no limitations on the method for manufacturing this laminate. For example, a specified thermoplastic resin may be cast in a molten state onto a pre-formed clear layer, and then cooled and solidified to form a base film, thereby obtaining this laminate having a base film and a clear layer. Alternatively, the present laminate may be obtained by applying composition (f) onto one surface of a substrate film and curing it to form a clear layer. Alternatively, the present laminate may be obtained by separately producing a clear layer and laminating it on the base film. The lamination method is not particularly limited.

[0077] The present laminate may be stretched before use to protect the surface of an article to be protected. The stretching direction and stretching method can be appropriately selected depending on the shape of the article, the manufacturing conditions during molding, etc. The stretching direction may be any direction, and the stretching method may be any method. In other words, the stretching of the present laminate may be carried out by pulling the present laminate in one predetermined direction or in all directions, or by appropriately heating the present laminate to expand it.

[0078] The article with the laminate of the present invention (hereinafter also referred to as the present molded article) is preferably obtained by attaching the present laminate to the surface of an article to be protected. Specific examples of items whose surfaces need to be protected include automobile and motorcycle bodies, home appliances, solar cells, furniture, and building materials. More specific examples include automobile roofs, hoods, front doors, and trunk doors.

[0079] The method for attaching the laminate is not particularly limited, and vacuum forming (overlay forming), in-mold forming, in-mold transfer forming, in-mold lamination forming, overlay transfer forming, overlay lamination forming, hydraulic transfer, etc. can be used. [Example]
