[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a fluororesin film and a rubber molded article. [Background technology]

[0002] Because fluororesin films are chemically stable, they are used as films that cover the surfaces of rubber-containing substrates. Rubber molded articles comprising a rubber-containing substrate and a fluororesin film covering the surface thereof are used as diaphragms, rollers, gaskets, hoses, tubes, etc. Patent Document 1 discloses a diaphragm whose surface is covered with a fluororesin film. The diaphragm of Patent Document 1 has high durability against atmospheric ozone, fuel, etc.

[0003] On the other hand, the adhesiveness of fluororesin films to other substances or members is generally low, and it is known that the adhesiveness of fluororesin films can be improved by modification treatments such as sputter etching (see Patent Document 2).

[0011] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0012] [Fluororesin film] A fluororesin film of this embodiment is shown in FIG. 1. The fluororesin film 1 in FIG. 1 contains a fluororesin and has a modified surface 11. The proportions of carbon, oxygen, and fluorine elements on the surface 11, where the total of each element is 100 atomic %, are as follows: carbon: 30 atomic % to 70 atomic %; oxygen: 0.6 atomic % to 13 atomic %; and fluorine: 60 atomic % or less. Hereinafter, unless otherwise specified, the proportions of each element on the surface 11 are values ​​relative to the total of carbon, oxygen, and fluorine being 100 atomic %. In the fluororesin film 1, even when the film is stretched, a decrease in adhesiveness on the surface 11 is suppressed. This is presumably because the surface 11, with the above proportions controlled, achieves improved adhesiveness through the modification treatment while suppressing the occurrence of cracks due to stretching. The decrease in adhesiveness due to cracks may occur when the unmodified interior of the film is exposed to the surface.

[0013] The lower limit of the carbon content may be 33 atomic % or more, 35 atomic % or more, 38 atomic % or more, or even 40 atomic % or more. The upper limit of the carbon content may be 65 atomic % or less, 60 atomic % or less, 55 atomic % or less, 50 atomic % or less, 45 atomic % or less, 44 atomic % or less, or even 43 atomic % or less.

[0014] The upper limit of the oxygen content may be 12 atomic % or less, 11 atomic % or less, 10 atomic % or less, 9 atomic % or less, 8 atomic % or less, 7 atomic % or less, 6 atomic % or less, or even 5 atomic % or less. The lower limit of the oxygen content may be 0.7 atomic % or more, 0.8 atomic % or more, 0.9 atomic % or more, or even 1 atomic % or more.

[0015] The upper limit of the fluorine content may be 59 atomic % or less, or even 58 atomic % or less. The lower limit of the fluorine content may be, for example, more than 17 atomic %, or may be 20 atomic % or more, 25 atomic % or more, 30 atomic % or more, 35 atomic % or more, 40 atomic % or more, 45 atomic % or more, 48 atomic % or more, 50 atomic % or more, or even 52 atomic % or more.

[0016] The oxygen / carbon element ratio (hereinafter referred to as O / C ratio) at the surface 11 may be 0.25 or less, 0.20 or less, 0.17 or less, 0.15 or less, 0.12 or less, 0.10 or less, 0.09 or less, or even 0.08 or less. The lower limit of the O / C ratio is, for example, 0.01 or more, and may be 0.02 or more. Appropriate control of the O / C ratio can contribute to more reliably suppressing a decrease in the adhesiveness of the surface 11 due to stretching. The O / C ratio can be calculated from the oxygen ratio and carbon ratio at the surface 11.

[0017] The fluorine / carbon atomic ratio (hereinafter referred to as F / C ratio) at the surface 11 may be 0.32 or more and 1.82 or less. The lower limit of the F / C ratio may be 0.50 or more, 0.70 or more, 0.90 or more, 1.00 or more, 1.05 or more, 1.10 or more, 1.15 or more, 1.20 or more, or even 1.25 or more. The upper limit of the F / C ratio may be 1.75 or less, 1.70 or less, 1.65 or less, 1.60 or less, 1.55 or less, or even 1.50 or less. Appropriate control of the F / C ratio can contribute to more reliably suppressing a decrease in the adhesiveness of the surface 11 due to stretching. The F / C ratio can be calculated from the fluorine content and carbon content at the surface 11.

[0018] Atoms of other elements may be present on surface 11. Examples of other elements are nitrogen, silicon, and metals derived from the chamber, target, etc. used in the modification process. The total proportion of other elements on surface 11 may be, for example, 5 atomic % or less, 3 atomic % or less, 2 atomic % or less, or even 1 atomic % or less, where the total of carbon, oxygen, fluorine, and other elements is 100 atomic %.

[0019] The proportion of each element on the surface 11 can be evaluated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (ESCA).

[0020] The fluororesin film of this embodiment is also suitable for suppressing coloration due to the modification treatment. * ,a * ,b * ) color space (hereinafter, (L* ,a * ,b * ) color space) * The absolute value of the value of (hereafter, |b * |) is, for example, less than 3.1, and may be 3.0 or less, 2.9 or less, or even 2.8 or less. * The lower limit of | is, for example, 0, and may be 0.5 or more, 1.0 or more, 1.5 or more, or even 2.0 or more. * The smaller |, the more suppressed the coloring.

[0023] |b on surface 11 * |, |Δb * |and|a* At least two selected from | may be within the above ranges.

[0024] Chromaticity a of surface 11 * and b * , and chromaticity difference Δb * The evaluation can be performed using, for example, a measuring instrument such as a spectrophotometer or colorimeter that complies with the above standards (for example, Konica Minolta's CR series color difference meter). The evaluation is performed by normalizing the stimulus values ​​X, Y, and Z obtained when measuring the white calibration plate so that they fall within ±0.03 of the reference value. The light source used is the auxiliary illuminant C (C light source) for colorimetry specified in JIS Z8720:2012. The viewing angle is 2 degrees.

[0025] The adhesiveness of surface 11 is expressed as peel adhesion strength evaluated by a 180° peel test in which fluororesin film 1 and adhesive tape (No. 31B, manufactured by Nitto Denko, 80 μm thick) are adhered together so that the adhesive surface of the adhesive tape is in contact with surface 11, and then the adhesive tape is peeled off from fluororesin film 1. The peel adhesion strength may be 4.0 N / 19 mm or more, 4.5 N / 19 mm or more, 5.0 N / 19 mm or more, 5.5 N / 19 mm or more, 6.0 N / 19 mm or more, 6.5 N / 19 mm or more, or even 7.0 N / 19 mm or more. The upper limit of the adhesiveness of surface 11, expressed as the peel adhesion strength, is, for example, 15.0 N / 19 mm or less. Note that No. 31B has sufficient adhesive strength for evaluating the peel adhesion strength.

[0026] The fluororesin film 1 in Fig. 1 has a surface 11 on one of its main surfaces. The fluororesin film 1 may have surfaces 11 on both of its main surfaces. When the fluororesin film 1 has two or more main surfaces 11, the composition (element proportions, element ratios) and properties such as chromaticity, chromaticity difference, and adhesiveness may be the same or different between the surfaces 11.

[0027] The fluororesin film 1 in Fig. 1 has a surface 11 over the entirety of one of its main surfaces. The fluororesin film 1 may have a surface 11 over only a portion of its main surface. Alternatively, the fluororesin film 1 may have two or more surfaces 11 on one main surface.

[0028] The thickness of the fluororesin film 1 is, for example, 10 to 300 μm, and may be 30 to 250 μm, or even 50 to 200 μm.

[0029] 1 is a single layer. As long as the fluororesin film 1 has a surface 11, it may be a laminate of two or more layers.

[0030] Examples of the fluororesin include at least one selected from ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer (ETFE), tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer (FEP), tetrafluoroethylene-perfluoroalkoxyethylene copolymer (PFA), polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE), and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The fluororesin may be at least one selected from PTFE and ETFE, or may be ETFE.

[0031] The fluororesin film 1 may contain a fluororesin as a main component. In this specification, "main component" means the component with the largest content. The fluororesin content in the fluororesin film 1 is, for example, 50% by weight or more, and may be 60% by weight or more, 70% by weight or more, 80% by weight or more, 90% by weight or more, 95% by weight or more, or even 99% by weight or more. The fluororesin film 1 may be made of a fluororesin. The fluororesin film 1 may contain two or more types of fluororesins.

[0032] The fluororesin film 1 may contain materials other than fluororesin. Examples of other materials in the fluororesin film 1 are resins other than fluororesin. Examples of such resins are polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, and polyvinylidene chloride. The content of other materials in the fluororesin film 1 may be, for example, 20% by weight or less, 10% by weight or less, 5% by weight or less, 3% by weight or less, or even 1% by weight or less.

[0033] The shape of the fluororesin film 1 is, for example, polygonal, including square and rectangular, circular, elliptical, or strip-shaped. The corners of the polygon may be rounded. However, the shape of the fluororesin film 1 is not limited to the above examples. Polygonal, circular, and elliptical fluororesin films 1 can be distributed as sheets, while strip-shaped fluororesin films 1 can be distributed as rolls wound around a core. The width of the strip-shaped fluororesin film 1 and the width of the roll formed by winding the strip-shaped fluororesin film 1 can be freely set.

[0034] The fluororesin film 1 is usually non-porous. The fluororesin film 1 may be a non-porous film that does not have holes connecting both main surfaces at least in the use area.

[0035] The fluororesin film 1 may be an impermeable film that does not allow fluids such as water, aqueous solutions, oils, and organic liquids to pass through in the thickness direction, based on the high liquid repellency (water repellency and oil repellency) of the fluororesin. Furthermore, the fluororesin film 1 may be an insulating film (non-conductive film) based on the high insulating properties of the fluororesin. The insulating properties may be, for example, 1×10 14 It is expressed by a surface resistivity of Ω / □ or more.

[0036] The fluororesin film 1 can be used, for example, as a covering film that covers the surface of a rubber-containing substrate included in a rubber molded article. Covering films are usually used so as to conform to the surface shape of the rubber-containing substrate. In this case, depending on the shape, the covering film may need to be stretched. Furthermore, in in-mold molding, the fluororesin film is stretched to a large extent when the rubber is shaped. However, the fluororesin film 1 can suppress a decrease in adhesion to the rubber-containing substrate even when stretched.

[0037] Examples of the rubber molded article include a diaphragm, a roller, a gasket, a hose, and a tube, but the rubber molded article is not limited to the above examples.

[0038] The uses of the fluororesin film 1 are not limited to the above examples.

[0039] The fluororesin film 1 can be produced, for example, by a method in which a raw film containing a fluororesin is modified to form the surface 11 on the main surface. An example of such a method is shown below. However, the method for producing the fluororesin film 1 is not limited to the above method or the following example.

[0040] The original film is typically a film having the same structure as the fluororesin film 1 except that it does not have the surface 11 .

[0041] Examples of modification treatments for the original film include sputter etching, ion beam treatment, laser etching, sandblasting, and treatment with sandpaper. However, the modification treatment is not limited to the above examples, as long as the surface energy of the modified surface of the original film is increased to form a surface 11 in which the predetermined proportions of carbon, oxygen, and fluorine are achieved. The modification treatment may be sputter etching or ion beam treatment, or may be sputter etching, since it can efficiently form the surface 11.

[0042] Sputter etching is typically performed by applying a high-frequency voltage to the original film while reducing the pressure in a chamber containing the original film and introducing an atmospheric gas into the chamber. The high-frequency voltage can be applied, for example, using a cathode in contact with the original film and an anode spaced apart from the original film. In this case, surface 11 is formed on the anode-side main surface, which is the exposed surface of the original film. Known equipment can be used for sputter etching.

[0043] Examples of the atmospheric gas include rare gases such as helium, neon, and argon, inert gases such as nitrogen, and reactive gases such as oxygen and hydrogen. The atmospheric gas may be at least one selected from argon and oxygen, or may be oxygen, since this allows for efficient formation of the surface 11. Only one atmospheric gas may be used.

[0044] The frequency of the high frequency voltage is, for example, 1 to 100 MHz, and may be 5 to 50 MHz. The pressure inside the chamber during processing is, for example, 0.05 to 200 Pa, and may be 0.5 to 100 Pa.

[0045] The amount of energy in the sputter etching process (the product of the power per unit area applied to the original film and the processing time) is, for example, 0.1 to 100 J / cm 2 and 0.1 to 50 J / cm 2 , 0.1~40J / cm 2 , and even 0.1 to 30J / cm 2 If the amount of energy becomes excessively large, the proportion of oxygen or the O / C ratio on the surface 11 tends to become too high, or the F / C ratio tends to become too low.

[0046] The sputter etching process may be a batch process or a continuous process, and an example of the continuous process will be described with reference to FIG.

[0047] An example of a continuous processing apparatus is shown in FIG. 2. The processing apparatus 100 in FIG. 2 includes a chamber 101, a roll electrode 102, and a curved plate electrode 103 disposed within the chamber 101. A pressure reducing device 104 for reducing the pressure within the chamber 101 and a gas supply device 105 for supplying atmospheric gas to the chamber 101 are connected to the chamber 101. The roll electrode 102 is connected to a high-frequency power source 106, and the curved plate electrode 103 is grounded. The raw film 107 is strip-shaped and wound around a feed roll 108. The raw film 107 is continuously fed from the feed roll 108 and passed between the roll electrode 102 and the curved plate electrode 103 along the roll electrode 102, with a high-frequency voltage applied during this process, thereby enabling continuous processing. In the example shown in FIG. 2, a surface 11 is formed on the main surface of the raw film 107 facing the curved plate electrode 103. After processing, the raw film 107 is taken up around a take-up roll 109.

[0048] [Rubber molding] An example of a rubber molded body of this embodiment is shown in Figures 3A and 3B. Figure 3B shows a cross section BB of the rubber molded body 21 of Figure 3A. The rubber molded body 21 of Figures 3A and 3B is a corrugated diaphragm. The rubber molded body 21 includes a rubber-containing substrate 22 and a fluororesin film 1. The rubber-containing substrate 22 has a surface 23 covered with the fluororesin film 1. Since the surface 23 is corrugated, the fluororesin film 1 is partially (for example, at the peaks of the corrugations) strongly stretched during the production of the rubber molded body 21.

[0049] The entire surface of the rubber molded body 21 may be the surface 23, or only a part of the surface may be the surface 23.

[0050] The rubber-containing substrate 22 typically contains rubber as a primary component. Examples of rubber include butyl rubber, natural rubber, ethylene propylene rubber (EPDM), silicone rubber, and fluororubber. The rubber-containing substrate 22 may also contain materials other than rubber, such as inorganic fillers, organic fillers, reinforcing fibers, antioxidants, and plasticizers.

[0051] The rubber molded article of the present invention is not limited to the above examples, as long as it has a surface 23. Examples of rubber molded articles other than diaphragms include rollers, gaskets, hoses, and tubes.

[0052] The rubber molded article of the present invention can be produced, for example, by in-mold molding with the fluororesin film 1 placed in a mold. From this aspect, the present invention provides a method for producing a rubber molded article having a surface covered with a resin film, which includes obtaining the rubber molded article by in-mold molding the resin film placed in a mold, and wherein the resin film is the fluororesin film 1. [Example]

[0053] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.

[0054] First, the evaluation method for the fluororesin film will be described.

[0055] [Surface composition analysis] Surface composition analysis was performed by ESCA. The evaluation surface of the fluororesin films prepared in the examples and comparative examples was the modified surface. The evaluation surface of the fluororesin film prepared in the reference example was one of the main surfaces. After wide-scan measurement of the evaluation surface using an X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (ULVAC-PHI, Quantum 2000), narrow-scan measurement was performed on the carbon, oxygen, and fluorine peaks to obtain the integrated intensity (area) of the peaks of each element. The proportion of each element on the evaluation surface, the O / C ratio, and the F / C ratio were calculated from the obtained integrated intensities. The conditions for the wide-scan measurement and narrow-scan measurement were as follows: Excitation X-ray: AlKα line, monochromator used Excitation X-ray output: 30 W (accelerating voltage 15 kV) Photoelectron take-off angle: 45° to the evaluation surface Binding energy correction: Peak derived from F1s is corrected to 689.1 eV Charge neutralization: Use of electron gun and Ar ion gun (neutralization mode)

[0056] [Peel adhesive strength] Peel adhesion was evaluated as follows. First, a fluororesin film was cut into a strip measuring 19 mm in width and 150 mm in length to prepare a test specimen. Next, the test specimen was attached to the surface of a stainless steel plate using double-sided adhesive tape (Nitto Denko Corporation, No. 500). The attachment was performed so that the entire test specimen was in contact with the stainless steel plate, and in the case of the films of the Examples and Comparative Examples, the modified surface was exposed. The double-sided adhesive tape was selected to have sufficient adhesive strength to prevent the test specimen from peeling off from the stainless steel plate during evaluation. Next, a single-sided adhesive tape measuring 19 mm in width and 200 mm in length (Nitto Denko Corporation, No. 31B, 80 μm thick, acrylic adhesive) was attached to the exposed surface of the test specimen. The lamination was performed so that the long sides of the test specimen and the single-sided adhesive tape were aligned, one end of the long side of the single-sided adhesive tape was a free end that did not contact the test specimen over a length of 120 mm, and the entire adhesive layer of the single-sided adhesive tape, excluding the free end, was in contact with the test specimen. To ensure a secure bond between the single-sided adhesive tape and the test specimen, a 2 kg pressure roller specified in JIS Z0237:2009 was run back and forth at 25°C. The test sample was then left to stand for 30 minutes after the back and forth movement of the pressure roller to stabilize the bond between the single-sided adhesive tape and the test specimen, and then placed in a tensile tester. The test specimen was placed so that the long side of the test specimen was aligned with the direction between the chucks of the tester, and one chuck of the tester gripped the free end of the single-sided adhesive tape while the other gripped the test specimen and the stainless steel plate. Next, a 180° peel test was conducted, in which the single-sided adhesive tape was peeled from the test piece at a peel angle of 180° and a test speed of 300 mm / min. After the test started, the measurement value for the first 20 mm peeled length was ignored, and the average value of the measurements for the next 60 mm peeled length was taken as the peel adhesive strength of the test piece. The test was conducted in an environment with a temperature of 25±1°C and a relative humidity of 50±5%.

[0057] [Whether or not cracks occur due to stretching] A stretching test was conducted on a fluororesin film to simulate the stretching that occurs during rubber shaping processing. After the test, the surface of the film was observed using an SEM (JEOL, JSM7500F) at a magnification of 20,000 times to check for the presence or absence of cracks (stretching cracks). The surface observed in the fluororesin films prepared in the Examples and Comparative Examples was the modified surface. The surface observed in the fluororesin film prepared in the Reference Example was one of the main surfaces. The stretching test was conducted according to the following procedure. The fluororesin film was cut into a size of 100 mm × 100 mm to obtain a test piece. Next, the test piece was placed in a biaxial stretching machine (manufactured by Itochu Sanki Machinery Co., Ltd.), heated at 180°C for 45 seconds, and then simultaneously biaxially stretched at a stretching speed of 1 m / min and an areal stretching ratio of 6.25 times (= 2.5 times × 2.5 times).

[0058] [chromaticity a * , b * and chromaticity difference Δb * ] Chromaticity of evaluation surface a * , b * and chromaticity difference Δb * The color is measured by a color difference meter (Konica Minolta, CR400) that can be evaluated based on JIS Z8781-4:2003, and the color is measured by CIE1976 (L * ,a * ,b * ) chromaticity of color space a * , b * and chromaticity difference Δb * The evaluation was performed as follows. In the fluororesin films prepared in the Examples and Comparative Examples, the evaluation surface was the modified surface. In the fluororesin film prepared in the Reference Example, the evaluation surface was one of the main surfaces. The evaluation conditions for chromaticity and chromaticity difference are as follows. The evaluation was performed with the fluororesin film placed on a white calibration plate (CR-A43, manufactured by Konica Minolta). Light source: JIS Z8720:2012 auxiliary illuminant C (C light source) for colorimetry ·Viewing angle: 2 degrees Normalization is performed so that the stimulus values ​​X, Y, and Z when measuring the white calibration plate are within ±0.03 of the reference value.

[0059] Example 1 An unmodified ETFE film (manufactured by Nitto Denko, thickness 10 μm) was prepared as the raw film. Next, one main surface of the raw film was modified by sputter etching to obtain the fluororesin film of Example 1. For the modification, the processing pressure was 3.0 Pa, argon gas (Ar) was used as the atmospheric gas, and the energy amount was 0.7 J / cm. 2 It was decided.

[0060] Example 2 For the reforming process, oxygen gas (O2) is used as the atmospheric gas, and the energy amount is 5J / cm 2 A fluororesin film of Example 2 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that:

[0061] Example 3 The fluororesin film of Example 3 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that oxygen gas was used as the atmospheric gas for the modification treatment.

[0062] Example 4 For the reforming process, oxygen gas is used as the atmospheric gas, and the energy amount is 0.2 J / cm 2 A fluororesin film of Example 4 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that:

[0063] (Comparative Example 1) For the reforming process, oxygen gas is used as the atmospheric gas, and the energy amount is 20 J / cm 2 A fluororesin film of Comparative Example 1 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that:

[0064] (Comparative Example 2) For the modification process, the energy amount is 5J / cm 2 A fluororesin film of Comparative Example 2 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that:

[0065] (Reference example) The original film prepared in Example 1 was used as a reference example.

[0066] The evaluation results of each fluororesin film are shown in Table 1. SEM images of the surfaces (observation surfaces) of the fluororesin films of Example 2, Comparative Example 1, and Reference Example after the stretching test are shown in Figures 4, 5, and 6, respectively.

[0067] [Table 1]

[0068] As shown in Table 1, in the Examples, the modification treatment improved adhesion while suppressing the occurrence of stretching cracks. On the other hand, in the Comparative Examples, the occurrence of stretching cracks exposed the unmodified interior of the film to the surface, and a sea-island structure was observed on the surface, with the unmodified treated areas forming the sea and the modified treated areas forming the islands (see Figure 5).
