[0009] [Figure 1] This is a schematic side view showing an example of a roofing member of the present invention. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0010] The meanings of the terms used in this invention are as follows: (Meth)acrylate is a general term for acrylate and methacrylate. Similarly, (meth)acrylic acid is a general term for acrylic acid and methacrylic acid. Furthermore, (meth)acrylic resin refers to a resin composed mainly of polymers based on (meth)acrylate units. In polymers, a unit is a general term for atomic groups formed directly by the polymerization of monomers, based on a single monomer molecule, and atomic groups obtained by chemically transforming a portion of the above atomic group after polymerization. The content (mol%) of each unit relative to the total number of units in the polymer is determined by analyzing the polymer using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). The hydroxyl value is a value measured according to the method of JIS K 0070-3 (1992). The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the top layer is the temperature at which the maximum tanδ (loss tangent) value is observed, measured using DMA (dynamic viscoelasticity measurement). The glass transition temperature (Tg) is the value of the intermediate glass transition temperature measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The number-average molecular weight (Mn) is a value measured by gel permeation chromatography using polystyrene as the standard substance.
[0011] The thickness of the roofing material is measured using an eddy current thickness gauge. For example, the EDY-5000 manufactured by Sanko Electronics Co., Ltd. can be used as an eddy current thickness gauge. The thickness of each layer in the roofing material is measured by observing the cross-section of the roofing material using a scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy-dispersive X-ray analyzer. The mass of solids in a composition refers to the mass remaining after removing the solvent from the composition, if the composition contains a solvent. Components other than the solvent in the composition are considered solids, even if their liquid state is one. The mass of solids in a composition is determined by heating 1 g of the composition at 130°C for 20 minutes.
[0012] The roofing member of the present invention (hereinafter also referred to as "this roofing member") comprises a base material, a polyurethane layer disposed on the base material, and a top layer disposed on the polyurethane layer, wherein at least a portion of the polyurethane layer is composed of a foamed polyurethane layer, and the top layer contains a fluorine-containing polymer. The mechanism by which the top layer of a roof component with such a structure adheres well is not entirely clear, but it is thought to be as follows. In other words, the top layer of this roofing component contains a fluorine-containing polymer. This top layer has good adhesion to the polyurethane layer, and it is believed that the adhesion of the top layer is improved.
[0013] First, I will explain the structure of the main roof components, referring to the drawings. Figure 1 is a schematic side view showing the layer structure of a roof member 10 (this roof member), which is one embodiment of the present invention. The roof member 10 has a base material 12, a foamed polyurethane layer 14, a non-foamed polyurethane layer 16, and a top layer 18, with each layer arranged in this order. In Figure 1, the foamed polyurethane layer 14 and the non-foamed polyurethane layer 16 together form a polyurethane layer 20. Figure 1 shows a configuration in which the polyurethane layer 20 has both a foamed polyurethane layer 14 and a non-foamed polyurethane layer 16, but the non-foamed polyurethane layer 16 may be omitted. In other words, the foamed polyurethane layer 14 may be the polyurethane layer 20 itself. The roof member 10 may have other layers, as long as it does not contradict the spirit of the present invention.
[0014] The following provides a detailed description of each component that makes up this roof structure.

The non-foaming polyurethane layer is preferably formed by applying a non-foaming polyurethane raw material mixture to the surface on which the non-foaming polyurethane layer is to be formed, and then curing the non-foaming polyurethane raw material mixture on the surface. When a blocked polyisocyanate is used, after the coating film of the non-foaming polyurethane raw material mixture is formed, the coating film is heated to deblockize and cure it. Application methods include, for example, sprays, applicators, die coaters, bar coaters, roll coaters, comma coaters, roller brushes, brushes, and spatulas.

[0066] <Preparation of test specimens> (Example 1) A 0.07m x 0.15m slate substrate (1.0mm thick) was coated with a two-component sprayer containing two components of foamed polyurethane raw materials. The mixture was then sprayed onto the substrate and allowed to foam and harden for 10 to 60 seconds to form a foamed polyurethane layer (approximately 10mm thick). Next, the two components of the non-foaming polyurethane raw material were mixed on the foamed polyurethane layer using a two-component spraying machine and sprayed onto the surface. The mixture was then cured for 60 seconds to form a non-foaming polyurethane layer (thickness: approximately 10 μm). Next, composition A1 was spray-painted onto the non-foaming polyurethane layer and then left to crosslink and harden at 23°C for one week to form a top layer (thickness: approximately 30 μm). In this way, a laminate A1 was obtained having a base material, a foamed polyurethane layer, a non-foamed polyurethane layer, and a top layer in this order. The obtained laminate was subjected to the evaluation described later.
[0067] (Examples 2-5) Laminates 2 to 5 were obtained in the same manner, except that the composition used to form the top layer was changed as shown in Table 1. The resulting laminate was subjected to the evaluation described later.
[0068] <Rating> (Adhesion) The determination was made using the cross-cut method (JIS K 5600-5-6). The top layer of the laminate was cut into a grid of 50 squares at 2 mm intervals, adhesive tape was applied to it, and then the adhesive tape was peeled off. The number of squares that were not peeled off by the adhesive tape (number of squares that were not peeled off / 50) was measured. In all cases where delamination occurred, the top layer separated from the non-foamed polyurethane layer.
[0069] (Top layer Tg) A top layer was fabricated separately on a PTFE resin sheet and peeled off. The peeled top layer was then measured using DMA (dynamic viscoelasticity measurement), and the temperature at which the maximum tanδ value was observed was defined as the top layer's Tg (°C). Furthermore, the Tg of the top layer described above substantially coincides with the Tg of the fluorine-containing polymer having a cross-linked structure formed in the top layer.
[0070] (Growth rate) A top layer was fabricated separately on a PTFE plate and peeled off to obtain a test specimen consisting of a single top layer. The specimen was pulled using a tensile testing machine (ORIEnTEC TENSILON RTC-1310A) until fracture, and the elongation (%) of the top layer was determined. The measurement conditions conformed to tensile testing JIS K7127, with a tensile speed of 50 mm / min. The elongation (%) was calculated by dividing the length of the specimen before pulling by L0 and the length of the specimen at fracture by L. f It can be calculated using the following formula. Growth rate (%) = (L f -L0) × 100 / L0
[0071] (50°C water resistance test) The obtained laminates were subjected to a 50°C water resistance test based on the test method JIS K5600-6-2 "Liquid Resistance (Water Immersion Method)," except that the immersion water temperature was set to 50°C. After the water resistance test, the appearance change and adhesion of the laminates were evaluated. • Changes in appearance The appearance of the laminate after testing was evaluated according to the following criteria based on JIS K5600-8-2. A: No blister packing B: Blisters of size 1-2 or with a density of 1-2 C: Contains blister packs with a size of 3 or larger or a generation density of 3 or higher. • Adhesion The adhesion of the top layer in the laminate after testing was determined using the same method as the adhesion evaluation described above.
