Abstract
Description
Composition, surface treatment agent, coating liquid, article, and method for manufacturing article
[0001] The present invention relates to a composition, a surface treatment agent, a coating liquid, an article, and a method for producing an article.
[0002] Fluorine-containing ether compounds have excellent properties such as low refractive index, low dielectric constant, water and oil repellency, heat resistance, chemical resistance, chemical stability, and transparency, and are used in a wide variety of fields, including electrical and electronic materials, semiconductor materials, optical materials, and surface treatment agents.
[0003] For example, a fluorine-containing ether compound having a perfluoropolyether chain and a hydrolyzable silyl group is suitable for use as a surface treatment agent because it can form a surface layer on the surface of a substrate that exhibits high lubricity, water and oil repellency, etc. Surface treatment agents containing fluorine-containing ether compounds are used in applications where it is required that the performance of the surface layer not easily reduced in water and oil repellency even when rubbed repeatedly with fingers (abrasion resistance) and the performance of easily removing fingerprints attached to the surface layer by wiping (fingerprint stain removability) be maintained for a long period of time, such as surface treatment agents for components constituting the surfaces of touch panels that are touched by fingers, eyeglass lenses, and displays of wearable devices.
[0004] As a fluorine-containing ether compound capable of forming a surface layer having excellent abrasion resistance on the surface of a substrate, a fluorine-containing ether compound having a perfluoropolyether chain and a hydrolyzable silyl group has been proposed (Patent Document 1).

[0070] The molecular weights of compounds (A1), (A2), (B1), and (B2) are preferably 500 to 100,000, and more preferably 1,000 to 20,000. Furthermore, the molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) of the compounds in the composition is preferably 1.0 to 2.0, and more preferably 1.0 to 1.3. When the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution are within these ranges, the composition has the advantages of low viscosity, few evaporating components, and excellent uniformity when dissolved in a solvent. The molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the compounds can be measured by gel permeation chromatography, and are values calculated in terms of polystyrene.
[0071] The present composition contains two or more compounds selected from the above-mentioned compounds (A1), (A2), (B1), and (B2), and satisfies the following (I) to (III), and therefore has particularly excellent abrasion resistance. (I) When the composition contains a compound represented by formula (A1) and a compound represented by formula (A2), -O-R in formula (A1) 1 -L 1 -R 11 The chain length a1 of -O-R in formula (A2) 2 -L 2 -R 12 - The chain lengths a2 of T are different from each other, 1 and T 2(II) In the case where a compound represented by formula (B1) and a compound represented by formula (B2) are contained, -R in formula (B1) is different from each other in at least one pair of a1 and a2. 13 -L 3 -R 3 The chain length b1 of —O— and —O—R 23 -L 13 -R 33 A set of chain lengths b11 of - and -R in formula (B2) 14 -L 4 -R 4 The chain length b2 of —O— and —O—R 24 -L 14 -R 34 (III) In cases other than (I) and (II), the chain length a1 or the chain length a2 is different from either the chain length b1 or the chain length b11, or different from either the chain length b2 or the chain length b12.
[0072] A specific method for determining the chain length a1 of compound (A1) is as follows: f11 and T 1 "-O-R" which connects 1 -L 1 -R 11 -" represents the number of constituent atoms. When the carbon chain has a ring structure, it represents the number of constituent atoms of the shortest carbon chain. There are x1 atoms of chain length a1. For example, in the case of the following compound (A1-10), R 1 is CF 2 CH 2 and L 1 is C(-) 3 and R 11 There are three identical CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Therefore, there are three chain lengths a1, all of which are 7. In this case, the set of chain lengths a1 is also written as (7, 7, 7).
[0073] The numbers of repeating units m10 and n10 are each independently 1 to 200.
[0074] The chain length a2 of compound (A2) is also determined in the same manner. f12 and T 2 "-O-R" which connects 2 -L 2 -R 12 When the carbon chain has a ring structure, the number of constituent atoms of the shortest carbon chain is represented by a2. There are x2 atoms of the chain length a2. For example, in the case of the following compound (A2-10), R 2 is CF 2 CF 2 CH 2 and L 2 is C(-) 3 and R 12 There are three identical CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Therefore, there are three chain lengths a2, all of which are 8. In this case, the set of chain lengths a2 is also written as (8, 8, 8).
[0075] The numbers of repeating units m11 and n11 are each independently 1 to 200.
[0076] When the chain lengths a1 and a2 are the same, as in the combination of compound (A1-10) and compound (A2-10), the chain lengths a1 and a2 are compared in descending order of length, and if at least one pair is different, it is determined that the above condition (I) is satisfied. Specifically, the set of chain lengths a1 (7,7,7) and the set of chain lengths a2 (8,8,8) are compared in descending order of length. In this case, all three pairs are different, that is, at least one pair is different from each other, and therefore it is determined that the above condition (I) is satisfied.
[0077] Similarly, T 1 Compound (A1-11) having two T 2 It will be explained that the combination of the compound (A2-11) having two of the above groups satisfies (I). The numbers of repeating units m12 and n12 are each independently 1 to 200. The numbers of repeating units m13 and n13 are each independently 1 to 200.
[0078] The set of chain lengths a1 of compound (A1-11) is (7,7), and the set of chain lengths a2 of compound (A2-11) is (8,8). Therefore, when the set of chain lengths a1 (7,7) and the set of chain lengths a2 (8,8) are compared in order of length, all of the two sets are different, that is, at least one set is different from the other, and therefore it is determined that the above condition (I) is satisfied.
[0079] In the combination of compound (A1-10) and compound (A2-11), when the set of chain lengths a1 (7,7,7) of compound (A1-10) and the set of chain lengths a2 (8,8) of compound (A2-11) are compared in order of length, the two sets are different, that is, at least one set is different from the other, and therefore it is determined that the above condition (I) is satisfied.
[0080] Furthermore, in the combination of compound (A1-10) and compound (A1-11), when the set of chain lengths (7,7,7) of compound (A1-10) and the set of chain lengths (7,7) of compound (A1-11) are compared in order of increasing length, no mutually different sets exist, and therefore it is determined that the combination does not satisfy the above condition (I).
[0081] Regarding (II), the method for determining each chain length is the same as described above. A set having the longest of the sets of chain lengths b1 and b11 of compound (B1) (for example, the set of chain length b1) is compared with a set having the longest of the sets of chain lengths b2 and b12 of compound (B2) (for example, the set of chain length b2), and if at least one pair differs, the above (II) is satisfied. If the sets having the longest pairs match, the other sets (for example, chain length b11 and chain length b12) are compared. If the comparisons are made in order of length and at least one pair differs, the above (II) is satisfied. Even when the numbers are different, the comparisons are made in order of length, and if at least one pair differs, the above (II) is satisfied.
[0082] The determination method of (II) will be specifically explained below using the compound (B1-10) and the compound (B2-10). The numbers of repeating units m14 and n14 are each independently 1 to 200. The numbers of repeating units m15 and n15 each independently range from 1 to 200.
[0083] The chain length b1 of the compound (B1-10) is "-R 13 -L 3 -R 3 The chain length b11 represents the number of atoms constituting "-O-R 23 -L 13 -R 33 When the carbon chain has a ring structure, the number of constituent atoms of the shortest carbon chain is represented. 3 is CF 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 and L 3 is C(-) 3 and R 13 There are three identical CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Therefore, there are three chain lengths b1, all of which are 9. In this case, the set of chain lengths b1 is also described as (9,9,9). 23 is CF 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 and L 13 is C(-) 3 and R 33 There are three identical CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Therefore, there are three chain lengths b11, all of which are 9. In this case, the set of chain lengths b11 is also written as (9, 9, 9).
[0084] The chain length b2 of the compound (B2-10) is "-R 14 -L 4 -R 4 The chain length b12 represents the number of atoms constituting "-O-R 24 -L 14 -R 34 When the carbon chain has a ring structure, the number of atoms constituting the shortest carbon chain is represented. 4 is CF 2 CH 2CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 and L 4 is C(-) 3 and R 14 There are three identical CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Therefore, there are three chain lengths b2, all of which are 11. In this case, the set of chain lengths b2 is also described as (11, 11, 11). 24 is CF 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 and L 14 is C(-) 3 and R 34 There are three identical CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Therefore, there are three chain lengths b12, all of which are 11. In this case, the set of chain lengths b12 is also written as (11, 11, 11).
[0085] The set of chain lengths b1 of compound (B1-10) is (9,9,9), and the set of chain lengths b11 is (9,9,9). The set of chain lengths b2 of compound (B2-10) is (11,11,11), and the set of chain lengths b12 is (11,11,11). When the set having the longest of the sets of chain lengths b1 and b11 (in this case, since both are the same length, it is assumed to be chain length b1) is compared with the set having the longest of the chain lengths b2 and b12 (in this case, since both are the same length, it is assumed to be chain length b2), in order of length, all three sets are different, that is, at least one set is different from the other, and therefore it is determined that the above condition (II) is satisfied.
[0086] Similarly, T 3 and T 13 Compound (B1-11) having two of each of T 4 and T 14 It will be explained that the combination of the compound (B2-11) having two of each of the following groups satisfies the above (II). The numbers of repeating units m16 and n16 are each independently 1 to 200. The numbers of repeating units m17 and n17 are each independently 1 to 200.
[0087] The set of chain lengths b1 of compound (B1-11) is (9,9), and the set of chain lengths b11 is (9,9). The set of chain lengths b2 of compound (B2-11) is (11,11), and the set of chain lengths b12 is (11,11). Therefore, when the set having the longest of the set of chain lengths b1 and b11 (in this case, since both are the same length, it is assumed to be chain length b1) is compared with the set having the longest of the set of chain lengths b2 and b12 (in this case, since both are the same length, it is assumed to be chain length b2), in order of length, all of the two sets are different, that is, at least one set is different from the other, and therefore it is determined that the above condition (II) is satisfied.
[0088] In the combination of compound (B1-10) and compound (B2-11), when the set (9,9,9) of chain length b1 of compound (B1-10) and the set (9,9,9) of chain length b11 (in this case, since both are the same length, this is provisionally designated as chain length b1) are compared with the set (11,11) of chain length b2 of compound (B2-11) and the set (11,11) of chain length b12 (in this case, since both are the same length, this is provisionally designated as chain length b2) in order of length, the two sets are different, that is, at least one set is different from the other, and therefore it is determined that the above condition (II) is satisfied.
[0089] Furthermore, in the case of the combination of compound (B1-10) and compound (B1-11), when the set of chain lengths (9,9,9) including the longest one among the sets of chain lengths of compound (B1-10) and the set of chain lengths (9,9) including the longest one among the sets of chain lengths of compound (B1-11) are compared in order of length, no mutually different pairs exist, and therefore it is determined that the combination does not satisfy the above condition (II).
[0090] Regarding (III), for example, when compound (A1) and compound (B1) are used in combination, a set of chain lengths a1 is compared with a set of chain lengths b1, and a set of chain lengths a1 is compared with a set of chain lengths b11. The comparison is made in order of length, and if at least one pair is different, the above (III) is satisfied. Even when the number of chains is different, the comparison is made in order of length, and if at least one pair is different, the above (III) is satisfied.
[0091] For example, when compound (A1-10) and compound (B1-10) are combined, the set of chain lengths a1 (7,7,7) is compared with the set of chain lengths b1 (9,9,9), and the set of chain lengths a1 (7,7,7) is compared with the set of chain lengths b11 (9,9,9). In this case, at least one pair is different in the comparison between the set of chain lengths a1 and the set of chain lengths b1 and b11, and therefore it is determined that the above condition (III) is satisfied.
[0092] Of the present compositions, a composition containing at least the compound (A1) and the compound (A2) or a composition containing at least the compound (B1) and the compound (B2) is preferred, and a composition containing at least the compound (A1) and the compound (A2) is more preferred.
[0093] When two of the compounds (A1), (A2), (B1), and (B2) are combined, the mass ratio thereof is preferably 5:95 to 95:5. When the compounds (A1) and (A2) are combined, the mass ratio thereof is preferably 5:95 to 95:5. When the compounds (B1) and (B2) are combined, the mass ratio thereof is preferably 5:95 to 95:5.
[0094] The manufacturing method of each compound in the present composition may be appropriately selected from conventionally known methods. For example, compound (A1) and compound (B1) can be synthesized with reference to International Publication No. WO 2017 / 038830 and International Publication No. WO 2021 / 054413. For example, compound (A1) and compound (A2) can be separately produced by using raw materials with different carbon chain lengths. Although the manufacturing method is not limited to these methods, these methods can produce the present compound in high yield. The present composition is obtained by mixing the synthesized compound (A1) and compound (A2). The same applies to compound (B1) and the like.
[0095] The composition may further contain other compounds as long as the effects of the present invention are achieved. Examples of such other compounds include compounds produced as by-products during the production of compound (A1) or the like.
[0096] Specific examples of the present composition include the combinations of the following compounds. For example, a combination of compounds where the number following compound (A1-) is the same as the number following compound (A2-), such as the combination of compound (A1-12) and compound (A2-12), is preferred. Similarly, a combination of compounds where the number following compound (B1-) is the same as the number following compound (B2-), such as the combination of compound (B1-12) and compound (B2-12), is preferred. The numbers of repeating units m20 to m47, n20 to n29, n34 to n41, n44 to n47, l26 to l29, l40, and l41 each independently represent 1 to 200. In addition, although the above example illustrates a combination of two types, the present composition may contain three or more types of compounds selected from the present compounds.
[0097] The present composition may contain at least one of the following fluorine-containing compounds other than the above-mentioned compounds (A1), (A2), (B1), and (B2), and the following impurities.

[0108] [Article] Figure 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of an article of the present invention. The first article of the present invention is an article 20 having a substrate 12, an underlayer 14, and a surface layer 22 in this order, in which the underlayer 14 contains a silicon-containing oxide and the surface layer 22 contains a condensate of the present composition.
[0109] The material and shape of the substrate 12 in the first article may be appropriately selected depending on the application of the article 20. Examples of materials for the substrate 12 include glass, resin, sapphire, metal, ceramic, stone, and composite materials thereof. Glass may be chemically strengthened. In particular, examples of substrates 12 that require water and oil repellency include substrates for touch panels, substrates for displays, and substrates that constitute the housings of electronic devices. Touch panel substrates and display substrates are translucent. "Translucent" means that the normal incidence visible light transmittance in accordance with JIS R3106:1998 (ISO 9050:1990) is 25% or more. Glass or transparent resin is preferred as the material for the touch panel substrate.
[0110] The substrate 12 may be subjected to a surface treatment such as corona discharge treatment, plasma treatment, or plasma graft polymerization treatment on the surface on which the underlayer 14 is to be formed. The surface that has been subjected to the surface treatment further improves the adhesion between the substrate 12 and the underlayer 14, and as a result, further improves the abrasion resistance of the surface layer 22. As the surface treatment, corona discharge treatment or plasma treatment is preferred because it further improves the abrasion resistance of the surface layer 22.
[0111] The underlayer 14 is a layer containing at least an oxide containing silicon, and may further contain other elements. When the underlayer 14 contains silicon oxide, the T 1 is dehydrated and condensed to form Si—O—Si bonds with the underlayer 14, forming a surface layer 22 with excellent abrasion resistance.
[0112] The content of silicon oxide in the underlayer 14 may be 65% by mass or more, preferably 80% by mass or more, more preferably 85% by mass or more, and even more preferably 90% by mass or more. When the content of silicon oxide is equal to or greater than the lower limit of the above range, Si—O—Si bonds are sufficiently formed in the underlayer 14, and the mechanical properties of the underlayer 14 are sufficiently ensured. The content of silicon oxide is the remainder obtained by subtracting the total content of other elements (in the case of oxides, the amount converted into oxide) from the mass of the underlayer 14.
[0113] From the viewpoint of durability of the surface layer 22, it is preferable that the oxide in the underlayer 14 further contains one or more elements selected from alkali metal elements, alkaline earth metal elements, platinum group elements, boron, aluminum, phosphorus, titanium, zirconium, iron, nickel, chromium, molybdenum, and tungsten. The inclusion of these elements strengthens the bond between the underlayer 14 and the present composition, improving wear resistance.
[0114] When the underlayer 14 contains one or more elements selected from iron, nickel, and chromium, the total content of these elements relative to silicon oxide is preferably 10 to 1100 ppm by mass, more preferably 50 to 1100 ppm by mass, even more preferably 50 to 500 ppm by mass, and particularly preferably 50 to 250 ppm by mass. When the underlayer 14 contains one or more elements selected from aluminum and zirconium, the total content of these elements is preferably 10 to 2500 ppm by mass, more preferably 15 to 2000 ppm by mass, and even more preferably 20 to 1000 ppm by mass. When the underlayer 14 contains an alkali metal element, the total content of these elements is preferably 0.05 to 15% by mass, more preferably 0.1 to 13% by mass, and even more preferably 1.0 to 10% by mass. Examples of alkali metal elements include lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, and cesium. When the underlayer 14 contains platinum group elements, the total content thereof is preferably 0.02 mass ppm to 800 mass ppm, more preferably 0.04 mass ppm to 600 mass ppm, and even more preferably 0.7 mass ppm to 200 mass ppm. Examples of platinum group elements include platinum, rhodium, ruthenium, palladium, osmium, and iridium. When the underlayer 14 contains one or more elements selected from boron and phosphorus, the total content thereof is preferably 0.003 to 9, more preferably 0.003 to 2, and even more preferably 0.003 to 0.5, in terms of the ratio of the molar concentration of the sum of boron and phosphorus to the molar concentration of silicon, from the viewpoint of the wear resistance of the surface layer 22. When the underlayer 14 contains alkaline earth metal elements, the total content thereof, expressed as the ratio of the molar concentration of the total alkaline earth metal elements to the molar concentration of silicon, is preferably 0.005 to 5, more preferably 0.005 to 2, and even more preferably 0.007 to 2, from the viewpoint of the wear resistance of the surface layer 22. Examples of alkaline earth metal elements include lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, and cesium.
[0115] From the viewpoint of improving the adhesiveness of the composition and improving the water / oil repellency and abrasion resistance of the article 20, the underlayer 14 is preferably a silicon oxide layer containing alkali metal atoms. In particular, in the silicon oxide layer, the average concentration of alkali metal atoms in a region 0.1 to 0.3 nm deep from the surface in contact with the surface layer 22 is preferably 2.0×10 19 atoms / cm 3 On the other hand, in order to ensure sufficient mechanical properties of the silicon oxide layer, the average concentration of the alkali metal atoms is preferably 4.0×10 or more. 22 atoms / cm 3 It is preferable that:
[0116] The thickness of the underlayer 14 is preferably 1 to 200 nm, and particularly preferably 2 to 20 nm. If the thickness of the underlayer 14 is at least the lower limit of the above range, the underlayer 14 is likely to sufficiently improve adhesion. If the thickness of the underlayer 14 is at most the upper limit of the above range, the underlayer 14 itself will have high abrasion resistance. Methods for measuring the thickness of the underlayer 14 include a method of observing the cross section of the underlayer 14 using an electron microscope (SEM, TEM, etc.), and a method using an optical interference film thickness meter, a spectroscopic ellipsometer, a profilometer, etc.
[0117] The underlayer 14 can be formed, for example, by depositing a deposition material having a desired composition for the underlayer 14 on the surface of the substrate 12. One example of the deposition method is vacuum deposition. Vacuum deposition is a method in which the deposition material is evaporated in a vacuum chamber and attached to the surface of the substrate 12. The temperature during deposition (for example, when using a vacuum deposition device, the temperature of the boat on which the deposition material is placed) is preferably 100 to 3000°C, and particularly preferably 500 to 3000°C. The pressure during deposition (for example, when using a vacuum deposition apparatus, the absolute pressure in a tank in which the deposition material is placed is preferably 1 Pa or less, and particularly preferably 0.1 Pa or less. When forming the underlayer 14 using a deposition material, one deposition material may be used, or two or more deposition materials containing different elements may be used. Methods for evaporating the deposition material include a resistance heating method in which the deposition material is melted and evaporated on a resistance heating boat made of a high-melting-point metal, and an electron gun method in which the deposition material is irradiated with an electron beam to directly heat the deposition material and melt and evaporate the surface. The electron gun method is preferred as a method for evaporating the deposition material because it can be heated locally and therefore high-melting-point substances can be evaporated, and because areas not irradiated by the electron beam are at low temperatures, there is no risk of reaction with the container or the inclusion of impurities. The deposition material used in the electron gun method is preferably a molten granular or sintered material because it is less likely to scatter even when an air current is generated.
[0118] The surface layer 22 on the underlayer 14 contains a condensate of a compound contained in the present composition. Condensates of the present compound include those formed by hydrolysis of a hydrolyzable silyl group in a compound contained in the present composition to form a silanol group (Si—OH), which then undergoes an intermolecular condensation reaction to form an Si—O—Si bond, and those formed by condensation of a silanol group in the present compound with a silanol group or a Si—OM group (where M is an alkali metal element) on the surface of the underlayer 14 to form an Si—O—Si bond. The surface layer 22 may also contain a condensate of a fluorine-containing compound other than the compound contained in the present composition. That is, the surface layer 22 contains a fluorine-containing compound having a reactive silyl group in a state in which some or all of the reactive silyl groups of the fluorine-containing compound have undergone a condensation reaction.
[0119] The thickness of the surface layer 22 is preferably 1 to 100 nm, and particularly preferably 1 to 50 nm. When the thickness of the surface layer 22 is equal to or greater than the lower limit of the above range, the effect of the surface layer 22 can be sufficiently obtained. When the thickness of the surface layer 22 is equal to or less than the upper limit of the above range, the utilization efficiency is high. The thickness of the surface layer 22 is a thickness obtained using an X-ray diffractometer for thin film analysis. The thickness of the surface layer 22 can be calculated from the oscillation period of the interference pattern obtained by X-ray reflectivity method using an X-ray diffractometer for thin film analysis.
[0120] The second article of the present invention is an article 20 having, in this order, a substrate 10 with an undercoat layer and a surface layer 22, in which the substrate 10 with an undercoat layer contains an oxide containing silicon, and the surface layer 22 contains a condensate of the present composition.
[0121] In the second article, the base layer-attached substrate 10 has the same composition as the base layer 14 in the first article, and therefore the surface layer 22 has excellent abrasion resistance even when the surface layer 22 is formed directly on the base layer-attached substrate 10. The material of the base layer-attached substrate 10 in the second article may be any material as long as it has the composition of the base layer 14, and may be, for example, a glass substrate. Details of the material of the base layer-attached substrate 10 are the same as the materials of the substrate 12 and the base layer 14, and therefore will not be described here. The configuration of the surface layer 22 is also the same as that of the first article, and therefore will not be described here.
[0122] [Method for Producing an Article] The method for producing an article according to the present invention is a method for forming a surface layer by a dry coating method or a wet coating method using the composition, the surface treatment agent, or the coating liquid.
[0123] The present composition and the present surface treatment agent can be used directly in a dry coating method. Furthermore, the present composition and the present surface treatment agent are suitable for forming a surface layer with excellent adhesion by a dry coating method. Examples of dry coating methods include vacuum deposition, CVD, and sputtering. Vacuum deposition is preferred in terms of preventing decomposition of the present composition and the simplicity of the equipment.
[0124] For vacuum deposition, a pellet-shaped material in which the present composition is supported on a porous metal body made of a metal material such as iron or steel may be used. The pellet-shaped material supporting the present composition can be produced by impregnating a porous metal body with a solution of the present composition and then drying it to remove the liquid medium. The solution of the present composition can be the present coating liquid.
[0125] The present surface treatment agent and the present coating liquid can be suitably used in wet coating methods, such as spin coating, wipe coating, spray coating, squeegee coating, dip coating, die coating, inkjet coating, flow coating, roll coating, casting, Langmuir-Blodgett coating, and gravure coating.
[0126] To improve the abrasion resistance of the surface layer, an operation to promote the reaction between the composition and the substrate may be performed as needed. Examples of such an operation include heating, humidification, and light irradiation. For example, the substrate on which the surface layer has been formed can be heated in a moist atmosphere to promote reactions such as the hydrolysis reaction of hydrolyzable groups, the reaction between hydroxyl groups on the surface of the substrate and silanol groups, and the formation of siloxane bonds through the condensation reaction of silanol groups. After the surface treatment, compounds in the surface layer that are not chemically bonded to other compounds or the substrate may be removed as needed. Specific methods include, for example, pouring a solvent over the surface layer or wiping it off with a cloth soaked in the solvent.
[0127] The present invention will be described in more detail below using examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. In the following, "%" means "% by mass" unless otherwise specified. Examples 2 to 9 and 11 are examples, and Examples 1 and 10 are comparative examples.

The surface treatment methods used in each example were the dry coating method and the wet coating method described below. Chemically strengthened glass was used as the substrate. The obtained articles were evaluated by the following methods. The results are shown in the table.
[0144] Dry coating was carried out using a vacuum deposition apparatus (VTR350M, manufactured by ULVAC) (vacuum deposition method). 0.5 g of each compound was placed in a molybdenum boat in the vacuum deposition apparatus, and the inside of the vacuum deposition apparatus was heated to 1×10 -3 The chamber was evacuated to a pressure of 10 Pa or less. The boat on which the compound was placed was heated at a temperature increase rate of 10°C / min or less, and when the deposition rate measured by a quartz crystal oscillator film thickness meter exceeded 1 nm / sec, the shutter was opened to start film formation on the surface of the substrate. When the film thickness reached approximately 50 nm, the shutter was closed to terminate film formation on the surface of the substrate. The substrate on which the compound had been deposited was heat-treated at 200°C for 30 minutes and washed with dichloropentafluoropropane (AK-225, manufactured by AGC) to obtain an article having a surface layer on the surface of the substrate.
[0145] [Wet Coating Method] Each composition and C as a medium 4 F 9 O.C. 2 H 5 (Novec (registered trademark) 7200, manufactured by 3M Company) was mixed to prepare a coating solution with a solids concentration of 0.05%. A substrate was dipped into the coating solution, allowed to stand for 30 minutes, and then pulled out (dip coating method). The coating film was dried at 200°C for 30 minutes and washed with AK-225 to obtain an article having a surface layer on the surface of the substrate.
[0146] (Evaluation Method) <Method for Measuring Contact Angle> The contact angle of approximately 2 μL of distilled water placed on the surface of the surface layer was measured using a contact angle measuring device (DM-500, manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd.). Measurements were taken at five different points on the surface of the surface layer, and the average value was calculated. The 2θ method was used to calculate the contact angle.
[0147] <Initial Contact Angle> The initial water contact angle of the surface layer was measured by the above-mentioned measurement method. The evaluation criteria are as follows: A (Good): 115 degrees or more. B (Fair): 105 degrees or more and less than 115 degrees. C (Unacceptable): Less than 105 degrees.
[0148] <Abrasion Resistance (Steel Wool)> For the surface layer, a reciprocating traverse tester (manufactured by KNT Corporation) was used in accordance with JIS L0849:2013 (ISO 105-X12:2001) to reciprocate steel wool Bonstar (#0000) 10,000 times at a pressure of 98.07 kPa and a speed of 320 cm / min, and the water contact angle was then measured using the method described above. The smaller the decrease in water repellency (water contact angle) after abrasion, the smaller the decrease in performance due to friction, and the more excellent the abrasion resistance. The evaluation criteria are as follows: A (Good): The change in water contact angle after 15,000 reciprocating cycles is 10 degrees or less. C (Fail): The change in water contact angle after 15,000 reciprocating cycles is more than 10 degrees.
