Description

Method for dismantling joining components and easily dismantled liquid silicone adhesive

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for dismantling bonded members that use a curable liquid silicone adhesive, which enables easy and rapid collection, repair, and recycling of automobile parts such as automobile electrical components, electrical and electronic products, and an easily dismantled liquid silicone adhesive for use in said method.

[0002] In recent years, recyclability has become increasingly important in various fields due to its environmental friendliness and ability to reduce costs. For recycling purposes, it is necessary to disassemble bonded components into separate parts, even in the automotive, electrical, and electronics industries. However, since bonded components play an important role in preventing the intrusion of external dust and moisture and protecting internal components, they also require reliable sealing performance. Since adhesive sealing provides the best sealing performance, adhesive properties must be maintained even under various conditions (heat resistance, moisture resistance, etc.). Therefore, the cured product is usually strongly adhered to the substrate, making it difficult to remove the bonded components.

[0003] As a method for recycling bonded members using a curable resin composition, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-026784 (Patent Document 1) proposes softening or liquefying bonded members made using a polyol-based curable composition by heating them to 150 to 200°C, thereby dismantling the bonded members. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-327163 (Patent Document 2) proposes contacting a halogen-based organic solvent with the bonded portion of a bonded structure using a moisture-curing adhesive primarily composed of a urethane prepolymer to reduce the adhesive strength of the bonded portion, and then peeling and dismantling the constituent members of the bonded structure from the bonded portion. Furthermore, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-120903 (Patent Document 3) proposes a removable pressure-sensitive adhesive tape that uses an adhesive composed of a vinyl-based monomer mixture primarily composed of alkyl (meth)acrylate, maintaining high normal adhesive strength during bonding, but reducing the adhesive strength by heating when separating or dismantling the bonded portion, allowing for easy separation and dismantling. Japanese Patent No. 6221630 (Patent Document 4) proposes that by incorporating a tackifying resin into an oxyalkylene polymer, the polymer can be reworked, and can be rebonded even after rework, thereby maintaining its sealing performance.

[0004] On the other hand, silicone adhesives and sealants have superior properties such as heat resistance and weather resistance compared to the above organic adhesives, and are therefore widely used in the automotive, electrical and electronics, construction, etc. However, there is a problem in that silicone adhesives and sealants are difficult to decompose even when heated, making them difficult to repair or recycle.

[0005] Masking-type silicone adhesives have been proposed as silicone adhesives that allow for easy disassembly of components and exhibit sealing properties. Masking-type silicone adhesives that do not contain adhesion promoters include silicone adhesives that have been given release properties by adding a release agent to provide releasability to glass and metal. However, when such silicone adhesives are subjected to high temperatures exceeding 200°C, the release agent itself thermally decomposes and loses its effectiveness, and the silicone adhesive bonds to the components due to heat, making disassembly difficult and making recovery and repair difficult.

[0006] Therefore, there is a demand for recyclable bonding members and methods for dismantling them, even in applications where silicone adhesives are used for bonding.

[0007] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2003-026784 Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2002-327163 Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2008-120903 Japanese Patent No. 6221630 Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2022-183437 Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2021-160447

[0008] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and aims to provide a method for dismantling joined members in which the joined adhesive members are a silicone-based adhesive, and which can be easily recycled in a short time with little energy consumption while maintaining sealing performance at room temperature (23°C±15°C, the same applies hereinafter) and even after exposure to high temperatures of around 150°C, and an easily dismantled liquid silicone-based adhesive to be used in the method for dismantling joined members.

[0009] To achieve the above object, the present inventors proposed a method in their previously filed Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. 2022-183437 (Japanese Patent Application No. 2021-090750) (Patent Document 5) in which a specific proportion of aluminum hydroxide, which decomposes at around 160°C, is blended into a curable liquid silicone adhesive, allowing joined adhesive members to maintain their sealing properties even after being exposed to room temperature and even high temperatures of around 150°C, while exposing them to high temperatures of 160°C or higher to reduce the sealing properties and facilitate separation of the members. However, this method requires heating for a long period of several hours using a heating furnace, resulting in a high energy consumption.

[0010] Furthermore, Japanese Patent Application No. 2021-160447 (Patent Document 6) proposed a method for easily dismantling multiple components by irradiating microwaves onto a joint member in which multiple components are joined together with a curable liquid silicone adhesive containing particles that generate heat in response to microwaves and a hydroxide compound whose decomposition temperature is 180 to 600° C. However, this method still requires several minutes, and a shorter dismantling time is desired.

[0011] The present inventors therefore conducted extensive research into bonded components that can be recycled in a short time with less energy consumption, and methods for dismantling the same. As a result, they discovered that, in order to improve the efficiency and energy conservation of the collection, repair, and recycling of automobile parts, electrical and electronic products, etc., a bonded component formed by bonding multiple components, including components where at least a portion of the bonding interface is metal, using a cured product obtained by curing a curable liquid silicone adhesive containing 25 to 80 mass % of a hydroxide compound (particularly a metal hydroxide or metal oxide hydroxide) with a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C, and containing 3 mass % or less of a material that generates heat by electromagnetic induction, can maintain sealing properties even after exposure to room temperature and even to high temperatures of around 150°C, and that by heating the metal portion of the bonding interface within the bonded component by electromagnetic induction, the bonded component can be easily dismantled in a short time with little energy consumption, and the dismantled components can be recycled, thereby completing the present invention.

[0012] Accordingly, the present invention provides the following methods for dismantling bonded members and an easily dismantlable liquid silicone adhesive: [1] A method for dismantling bonded members, comprising the step of: providing a bonded member formed by bonding together a plurality of members, including a member at least a portion of which is metal, using a curable liquid silicone adhesive cured to a cured product obtained by curing the curable liquid silicone adhesive, the curable liquid silicone adhesive containing 25 to 80 mass % of a hydroxide compound having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C and containing 3 mass % or less of a material that generates heat upon electromagnetic induction; heating the metal portion of the bonded interface by electromagnetic induction to separate the metal-containing members from among the members; and dismantling the bonded member; [2] The method for dismantling bonded members according to [1], wherein the curable liquid silicone adhesive is a condensation-curing liquid silicone adhesive, an addition-reaction-curing liquid silicone adhesive, or an ultraviolet-curing liquid silicone adhesive. [3] The method for dismantling joined members according to [1] or [2], wherein the hydroxide compound having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C is at least one selected from aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, and aluminum oxide hydroxide (boehmite). [4] The method for dismantling joined members according to any one of [1] to [3], wherein the frequency of electromagnetic induction heating is 100 kHz or more and 500 kHz or less. [5] The method for dismantling joined members according to any one of [1] to [4], wherein the joined members are automobile parts or electrical / electronic parts. [6] An easily dismantlable condensation-curing liquid silicone adhesive used in the method for dismantling joined members according to any one of [1] to [5], comprising the following components (A) to (E), and wherein the content of the material that generates heat by electromagnetic induction is 3 mass% or less: (A) a hydroxide compound having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C: an amount that accounts for 25 to 80 mass% of the total adhesive, (B) a linear diorganopolysiloxane having both molecular chain terminals blocked with silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups and / or hydrolyzable silyl groups: 100 parts by mass, (C) a hydrolyzable organosilane compound and / or a partial hydrolysis condensate thereof having three or more silicon-bonded hydrolyzable groups in the molecule: 0.1 to 40 parts by mass, (D) a curing catalyst: 0.001 to 20 parts by mass, and (E) a silane coupling agent: 0.05 to 20 parts by mass.[7] An easily dismantlable addition reaction curable liquid silicone adhesive used in the method for dismantling joined members according to any one of [1] to [5], which contains the following components (A) and (F) to (H), and has an electromagnetic induction heat-generating material content of 3 mass% or less: (A) a hydroxide compound having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C: an amount that accounts for 25 to 80% by mass of the entire adhesive, (F) an alkenyl-containing organopolysiloxane having a silicon-bonded alkenyl group at a molecular chain terminal: 100 parts by mass, (G) an organohydrogenpolysiloxane having at least two silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in the molecule: an amount that provides 0.01 to 3 moles of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per mole of silicon-bonded alkenyl groups in component (F), (H) a platinum group metal catalyst: 0.01 to 1,000 ppm, calculated as the mass of platinum group metal atoms, based on the total amount of components (F) and (G), and (I) an adhesion promoter: 0.05 to 20 parts by mass. [8] An easily dismantlable ultraviolet-curable liquid silicone adhesive used in the method for dismantling joined members according to any one of [1] to [5], containing the following components (A), (J), and (K), and having a content of a material that generates heat by electromagnetic induction of 3% by mass or less: (A) a hydroxide compound having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C: 25 to 80% by mass of the total adhesive, (J) an ultraviolet-reactive organopolysiloxane: 100 parts by mass, and (K) a photopolymerization initiator: 0.01 to 10 parts by mass.

[0013] According to the method for dismantling bonded members of the present invention, while maintaining adhesive and / or sealing properties from room temperature to high temperatures of around 150°C, electromagnetic induction heating of the metal portion of the bonded interface indirectly heats the cured product of the adhesive member, the curable liquid silicone adhesive, thereby reducing the adhesive and / or sealing properties, allowing the metal-containing members at the bonded interface to be separated in a short time with little energy, thereby enabling bonded members to be easily dismantled and recycled. The curable liquid silicone adhesive used in this dismantling method is useful as an adhesive or sealing material for bonded parts that require heat resistance and recycling.

[0014] In the present invention, the "heat resistance temperature" of a member to be dismantled means the upper limit of the temperature at which the member does not undergo thermal decomposition or softening when left standing at a specific temperature for one minute.

[0015] 1A and 1B are images of the surface state of the ADC12 substrate observed with a digital microscope before and after electromagnetic induction heating in Example 1 of the present invention.

[0016] The present invention will be described in detail below.

[0017] The method for dismantling bonded members of the present invention includes a step of dismantling a bonded member in which a plurality of members, including members at least a portion of which at the bonding interface is made of metal, are bonded together using a cured product obtained by curing a curable liquid silicone adhesive containing 25 to 80 mass % of a hydroxide compound (particularly a metal hydroxide or a metal oxide hydroxide) having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C and containing 3 mass % or less of a material that generates heat by electromagnetic induction, by heating the metal portion of the bonding interface by electromagnetic induction to separate the metal-containing members from among the members and dismantle the bonded member.

[0018] [Curable Liquid Silicone-Based Adhesive] The curable liquid silicone-based adhesive used in the present invention cures to become an adhesive member that bonds together a plurality of components, including components where at least a portion of the bonding interface is made of metal. The adhesive contains a hydroxide compound (A) with a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C, has an electromagnetic induction heat generating material content of 3 mass% or less, and uses a polymer whose main chain comprises a siloxane bond as the base polymer. The curing type is preferably a condensation curing type, an addition reaction curing type, or an ultraviolet curing type.

[0019] [Hydroxylated Compounds Having a Decomposition Temperature of 180 to 600° C.] The hydroxide compounds having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600° C. are usually preferably metal hydroxides or metal oxide hydroxides, and examples thereof include aluminum hydroxide having a decomposition temperature of around 180° C., magnesium hydroxide having a decomposition temperature of around 300° C., and aluminum hydroxide oxide (boehmite) having a decomposition temperature of around 500° C. The "decomposition temperature" refers to the temperature at which the hydroxide compound begins to decompose and generate water.

[0020] These materials begin to decompose when heated, generating water as a result of the decomposition, which has an anti-flammability effect and has traditionally been used as a flame-retardant material. In the present invention, the water generated by this decomposition is used to generate bubbles in the cured product of the curable liquid silicone adhesive, which reduces the adhesive strength and makes it easy to disassemble the joined components in a short time.

[0021] As the hydroxide compound having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C, particulates having an average particle size of 50 μm or less, preferably 0.5 to 20 μm, are used. If the average particle size is greater than 50 μm, decomposition properties will decrease. The average particle size can be determined as the cumulative weight average value D50 (or median diameter) using a particle size distribution measuring device using a laser light diffraction method or the like.

[0022] The surface of the hydroxide compound may be untreated or may be surface-treated (hydrophobized). When surface treatment is performed, a commonly used treating agent is used, such as a silane coupling agent or a fatty acid. The surface treatment can be carried out by a known method. The amount of treatment is not particularly limited, but is preferably 3% by mass or less (usually 0.1 to 3% by mass), particularly 0.2 to 2% by mass.

[0023] The hydroxide compounds may be used singly or in combination of two or more compounds having different average particle sizes or surface treatment methods.

[0024] The content of the hydroxide compound is 25 to 80% by mass of the entire curable liquid silicone adhesive, preferably 30 to 70% by mass, and more preferably 35 to 65% by mass. If it is less than 25% by mass, decomposition (foaming) of the hydroxide compound will be insufficient and dismantling properties will be reduced, while if it is more than 80% by mass, the viscosity of the composition will increase, making it difficult to mix and discharge during application.

[0025] [Materials that generate heat by electromagnetic induction] Examples of materials that generate heat by electromagnetic induction include metal materials and carbon materials such as carbon fiber and carbon black. Examples of metal materials used in curable liquid silicone adhesives include aluminum powder, iron powder, copper powder, and alloy powders thereof.

[0026] The curable liquid silicone adhesive used in the present invention contains as little material as possible that generates heat by electromagnetic induction, but even if it contains a material that generates heat by electromagnetic induction as a component contained in an optional additive such as a colorant, the amount of this material blended in the curable liquid silicone adhesive should be 3% by mass or less (0 to 3% by mass), and particularly 1% by mass or less (0 to 1% by mass). If it exceeds 3% by mass, dismantling properties will decrease.

[0027] The electromagnetic induction heating used in the heating method of the present invention can heat conductive metal materials and carbon materials (e.g., carbon fiber, graphite, carbon black, etc.). On the other hand, in the present invention, by using electromagnetic induction to heat the bonding interface of the metals used in the bonding members, efficient delamination can be achieved in a short period of time. However, if a material that generates heat by electromagnetic induction is added to the adhesive itself, the electromagnetic induction energy is also used to heat the bonding members (cured adhesive), reducing dismantling properties. Furthermore, when an organic resin is used in the members, heating the bonding members heats the organic resin in contact with the bonding members to a temperature exceeding its heat resistance, causing the organic resin to dissolve or decompose, making the members unsuitable for recycling. Therefore, it is preferable to add as little material that generates heat by electromagnetic induction as possible to the curable liquid silicone adhesive of the present invention (3% by mass or less).

[0028] [Condensation-curable liquid silicone adhesive] The condensation-curable liquid silicone adhesive contains, in addition to the above-mentioned (A) hydroxide compound having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C, (B) a linear diorganopolysiloxane (base polymer) having both molecular chain terminals blocked with silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups and / or hydrolyzable silyl groups, (C) a hydrolyzable organosilane compound having three or more silicon-bonded hydrolyzable groups per molecule and / or a partial hydrolysis condensate thereof (crosslinking agent), (D) a curing catalyst, and (E) a silane coupling agent (adhesion-imparting agent), and is a liquid silicone adhesive that obtains a cured product by utilizing a hydrolysis and condensation reaction caused by moisture (humidity) in the atmosphere at room temperature. The condensation-curing liquid silicone adhesive is preferably an easily dismantlable condensation-curing liquid silicone adhesive containing: (A) a hydroxide compound having a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C: in an amount that accounts for 25 to 80 mass% of the total adhesive; (B) 100 parts by mass of a linear diorganopolysiloxane having both molecular chain terminals blocked with silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups and / or hydrolyzable silyl groups; (C) 0.1 to 40 parts by mass of a hydrolyzable organosilane compound and / or a partial hydrolysis condensate thereof having three or more silicon-bonded hydrolyzable groups in the molecule; (D) 0.001 to 20 parts by mass of a curing catalyst; and (E) 0.05 to 20 parts by mass of a silane coupling agent, and the content of the material that generates heat by electromagnetic induction is preferably 3 mass% or less.

[0029] The organopolysiloxane used as the base polymer (main component) (B) is a linear diorganopolysiloxane whose molecular chain is terminated at both ends with silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups (silanol groups) and / or hydrolyzable silyl groups, where the hydrolyzable silyl groups are preferably alkoxysilyl groups or alkoxy-substituted alkoxysilyl groups.

[0030] When a hydroxyl group (silanol group) bonded to a silicon atom is present, it is preferable that each of the molecular chain terminals has one hydroxyl group (that is, a hydroxysilyl group or a silanol group) bonded to a silicon atom.

[0031] When the hydrolyzable silyl group has an alkoxysilyl group or an alkoxy-substituted alkoxysilyl group at the terminal, it is preferred that both ends of the molecular chain have two or three alkoxy groups bonded to silicon atoms (i.e., alkoxysilyl groups) or alkoxy-substituted alkoxy groups bonded to silicon atoms (i.e., alkoxyalkoxysilyl groups) (i.e., present as dialkoxyorganosilyl groups or bis(alkoxyalkoxy)organosilyl groups, or trialkoxysilyl groups or tris(alkoxyalkoxy)silyl groups).

[0032] The alkoxy group is preferably an alkoxy group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, particularly 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and examples thereof include a methoxy group, an ethoxy group, a propoxy group, an isopropoxy group, a butoxy group, an isobutoxy group, a tert-butoxy group, a hexyloxy group, and an octyloxy group.

[0033] The alkoxy-substituted alkoxy group is preferably an alkoxy-substituted alkoxy group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, particularly 2 to 4 carbon atoms, and examples thereof include a methoxyethoxy group, an ethoxyethoxy group, and a methoxypropoxy group.

[0034] As the linear diorganopolysiloxane having both molecular chain terminals blocked with silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups and / or hydrolyzable silyl groups, those having hydroxyl groups (silanol groups), methoxy groups, or ethoxy groups at both terminals, preferably only at both terminals, of the diorganopolysiloxane are particularly preferred.

[0035] Examples of organic groups bonded to silicon atoms other than hydroxyl groups and hydrolyzable groups include unsubstituted or substituted monovalent hydrocarbon groups having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 10 carbon atoms. Examples of such monovalent hydrocarbon groups include alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, and 2-ethylhexyl; cycloalkyl groups such as cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl; alkenyl groups such as vinyl and allyl; aryl groups such as phenyl, tolyl, and naphthyl; aralkyl groups such as benzyl, phenylethyl, and phenylpropyl; groups in which some or all of the hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbon atoms of these groups have been substituted with halogen atoms such as fluorine, bromine, or chlorine, or with cyano groups, such as halogenated monovalent hydrocarbon groups such as trifluoropropyl and chloropropyl; and cyanoalkyl groups such as β-cyanoethyl and γ-cyanopropyl. Of these, a methyl group is preferred.

[0036] The viscosity of the organopolysiloxane used as the base polymer (main component) at 23°C is preferably 50 to 1,000,000 mPa·s, and more preferably 100 to 300,000 mPa·s. If the viscosity is below the lower limit, the resulting cured product may not have sufficient mechanical properties, while if it exceeds the upper limit, workability may decrease. In the present invention, the viscosity is the value measured at 23°C using a rotational viscometer (e.g., BL type, BH type, BS type, cone-plate type, rheometer, etc.) (the same applies hereinafter).

[0037] The organopolysiloxane as the base polymer (main component) may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0038] The hydrolyzable organosilane compound and / or its partial hydrolysis condensate as the (C) crosslinking agent (curing agent) is a hydrolyzable organosilane compound and / or its partial hydrolysis condensate having three or more silicon-bonded hydrolyzable groups in the molecule (i.e., a siloxane compound such as a siloxane oligomer having three or more residual hydrolyzable groups in the molecule).The (C) component functions as a crosslinking agent (curing agent) in which the three or more hydrolyzable groups present in the molecule undergo a hydrolysis and condensation reaction with the linear diorganopolysiloxane base polymer, both molecular chain terminals of which are blocked with silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups and / or hydrolyzable silyl groups, to form a crosslinked structure.

[0039] Examples of the hydrolyzable group contained in the hydrolyzable organosilane compound include alkoxy groups, alkoxy-substituted alkoxy groups, acyloxy groups, alkenoxy groups, ketoxime groups, aminoxy groups, and amide groups, all of which have 1 to 10 carbon atoms. Examples include alkoxy groups such as methoxy groups, ethoxy groups, and propoxy groups; alkoxy-substituted alkoxy groups such as methoxyethoxy groups, ethoxyethoxy groups, and methoxypropoxy groups; acyloxy groups such as acetoxy groups and octanoyloxy groups; alkenoxy groups such as vinyloxy groups, isopropenoxy groups, and 1-ethyl-2-methylvinyloxy groups; ketoxime groups such as dimethylketoxime groups, methylethylketoxime groups, and methylisobutylketoxime groups; aminoxy groups such as dimethylaminooxy groups and diethylaminooxy groups; and amide groups such as N-methylacetamide groups and N-ethylacetamide groups.

[0040] The hydrolyzable organosilane compound may have an organic group bonded to the silicon atom other than the hydrolyzable group described above. Examples of such organic groups bonded to the silicon atom other than the hydrolyzable group include unsubstituted or substituted monovalent hydrocarbon groups having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 10 carbon atoms. Examples include alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, 2-ethylhexyl, nonyl, decyl, and octadecyl; cycloalkyl groups such as cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl; alkenyl groups such as vinyl and allyl; aryl groups such as phenyl, tolyl, xylyl, and naphthyl; aralkyl groups such as benzyl, phenethyl, and phenylpropyl; and groups in which some or all of the hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms of these groups have been substituted with halogen atoms such as fluorine, bromine, and chlorine, or with cyano groups, such as halogenated alkyl groups such as 3-chloropropyl and 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl. Of these, preferred unsubstituted or substituted monovalent hydrocarbon groups are methyl, ethyl, propyl, vinyl, and phenyl.

[0041] Examples of hydrolyzable organosilane compounds and their partial hydrolysis condensates include alkoxysilanes such as methyltrimethoxysilane, ethyltrimethoxysilane, decyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltrimethoxysilane, phenyltrimethoxysilane, methyltriethoxysilane, ethyltriethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane, phenyltriethoxysilane, vinyltris(1-cyclopenten-1-yloxy)silane, tetramethoxysilane, and tetraethoxysilane; ketoxime silanes such as methyltris(dimethylketoxime)silane, methyltris(methylethylketoxime)silane, ethyltris(methylethylketoxime)silane, methyltris(methylisobutylketoxime)silane, and vinyltris(methylethylketoxime)silane; methyltri(methoxymethoxy)silane, ethyltri(methoxymethoxy)silane, and vinyltri(methoxymethoxy)silane. alkoxy-substituted alkoxysilanes such as phenyltri(methoxymethoxy)silane, methyltri(ethoxymethoxy)silane, ethyltri(ethoxymethoxy)silane, vinyltri(ethoxymethoxy)silane, phenyltri(ethoxymethoxy)silane, tetra(methoxymethoxy)silane, and tetra(ethoxymethoxy)silane; aminoxysilanes such as methyltris(N,N-diethylaminooxy)silane; amidosilanes such as methyltris(N-methylacetamido)silane, methyltris(N-butylacetamido)silane, and methyltris(N-cyclohexylacetamido)silane; alkenoxysilanes such as methyltriisopropenoxysilane, vinyltriisopropenoxysilane, and phenyltriisopropenoxysilane; acyloxysilanes such as methyltriacetoxysilane and vinyltriacetoxysilane, and partial hydrolysis condensates of these hydrolyzable organosilane compounds.

[0042] The hydrolyzable organosilane compound as a crosslinking agent (curing agent) is clearly distinguishable from the silane coupling agent (E) as an adhesion promoter, which will be described later, in that the hydrolyzable organosilane compound does not contain in the molecule a monovalent hydrocarbon group substituted with a functional group having a heteroatom such as a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom, or a sulfur atom.

[0043] The hydrolyzable organosilane compounds and / or their partial hydrolyzed condensates may be used singly or in combination of two or more.

[0044] The amount of hydrolyzable organosilane compound and / or its partial hydrolysis condensate as a crosslinking agent (curing agent) is 0.1 to 40 parts by mass, preferably 1 to 20 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of a linear diorganopolysiloxane having both molecular chain terminals capped with silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups and / or hydrolyzable silyl groups. If the amount of hydrolyzable organosilane compound and / or its partial hydrolysis condensate is less than the above-mentioned lower limit (0.1 part by mass), curability and storage stability may be reduced. On the other hand, if the amount exceeds the above-mentioned upper limit (40 parts by mass), not only will it be uneconomical, but the resulting cured product may have reduced elongation and durability.

[0045] The (D) curing catalyst can be a condensation catalyst that has traditionally been commonly used as a curing accelerator for condensation-curable liquid silicone adhesives (room-temperature-curable organopolysiloxane compositions). Examples of such catalysts include organotin compounds such as dibutyltin methoxide, dibutyltin diacetate, dibutyltin dioctate, dibutyltin dilaurate, dioctyltin dilaurate, dioctyltin dioctate, dioctyltin dineodecanoate, dimethyltin dimethoxide, and dimethyltin diacetate; organotitanium compounds such as tetrapropyl titanate, tetrabutyl titanate, tetra-2-ethylhexyl titanate, diisopropoxytitanium bis(ethylacetoacetate), and dimethoxytitanium diacetylacetonate; and amine compounds such as hexylamine and tetramethylguanidylpropyltrimethoxysilane, as well as salts thereof. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0046] The amount of curing catalyst blended is 0.001 to 20 parts by mass, preferably 0.005 to 5 parts by mass, and more preferably 0.01 to 2 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the linear diorganopolysiloxane terminally capped with silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups and / or hydrolyzable silyl groups. If the blended amount of curing catalyst is less than the lower limit (0.001 part by mass), the catalytic effect may not be obtained. On the other hand, if the blended amount of curing catalyst exceeds the upper limit (20 parts by mass), not only is it uneconomical, but the durability or adhesiveness of the composition may also decrease.

[0047] The condensation-curing liquid silicone adhesive further contains, as component (E), a silane coupling agent (a hydrolyzable silane compound having in its molecule a monovalent hydrocarbon group substituted with a functional group (excluding guanidyl groups) having a heteroatom such as a nitrogen atom, oxygen atom or sulfur atom, a so-called carbon functional silane compound) that improves adhesive strength and also acts as an adhesion-imparting component.

In the bonded member, one of the bonded members is a member in which at least a portion of the bonding interface is metal, and the other member may be selected from the group consisting of the same member (a member in which at least a portion of the bonding interface is metal), an organic resin member, and a metal member.

[0095] The members having at least a part of the bonding interface made of metal may be made entirely of metal, provided that the bonding interface is at least made of metal. Note that the metal at the bonding interface of the members may have an area that is sufficiently heated by electromagnetic induction.

[0096] Specific examples of members in which at least a portion of the joining interface is made of metal include automotive parts and electric / electronic parts made of aluminum alloys such as A1050, A2017, A5052, A5083, A6061, and A1N30; aluminum alloy die-casts such as ADC1, ADC3, ADC10, ADC12, and ADC14; carbon steels such as SPCC, SS400, and SAPH; stainless steels such as SUS304 and SUS430; and magnesium alloys such as AZ-91D and AM50A.

[0097] The metals constituting the metal member and the member in which at least a portion of the joining interface is metal may be magnetic or non-magnetic as long as they are capable of generating heat through electromagnetic induction. Examples include pure metals such as aluminum, iron, and copper, and alloys containing these (aluminum alloys (aluminum alloy die-casts such as Al-Cu-Si alloys (ADC12)), carbon steel (SPCC, SS400, SAPH, etc.), cast iron (Fe-Si-C ternary alloys), stainless steel (particularly ferritic), copper alloys (brass, bronze, cupronickel), nichrome, magnesium alloys (AZ-91D, AM50A, etc.), titanium alloys, etc.). Note that a magnetic material refers to a metal material whose relative permeability (μ / μ), which is the ratio of the vacuum permeability (μ) to the initial permeability (μ), is 5 or more, and even 50 or more.

[0098] Examples of organic resins that make up organic resin components include polyamide resins such as PBT (polybutylene terephthalate resin), PPS (polyphenylene sulfide resin), PA66 (nylon 66), PA6 (nylon 6), and PC (polycarbonate resin).

[0099] The organic resin or metal constituting the member having at least a part of the bonding interface made of metal, the organic resin member or the metal member preferably has a heat resistance temperature of 160° C. or higher.

[0100] [Method for Producing Bonded Members] A curable liquid silicone adhesive containing a hydroxide compound with a decomposition temperature of 180 to 600°C and containing 3% by mass or less of a material that generates heat upon electromagnetic induction is applied to the surface of one of the members by hand or machine dispensing in the shape of the joining location (e.g., a gasket, etc.), and the other member is then bonded and cured. The adhesive is then secured with bolts or the like as needed. When the curable liquid silicone adhesive of the present invention is a condensation-curing liquid silicone adhesive, it cures due to moisture in the air at room temperature, so curing progresses simply by leaving the multiple members after joining. Humidification is effective when increasing the curing rate. When the curable liquid silicone adhesive of the present invention is an addition-reaction-curing liquid silicone adhesive, it cures via an addition reaction at temperatures of 23 to 150°C, so curing progresses simply by leaving the multiple members after joining or heating. When the curable liquid silicone adhesive of the present invention is an ultraviolet-curing liquid silicone adhesive, the photopolymerization initiator reacts upon irradiation with ultraviolet light, causing the curing reaction to progress and harden. If necessary, a secondary cure may be carried out, and the temperature conditions for this are preferably 120° C. or higher, more preferably 150° C. or higher, but lower than the decomposition temperature of the hydroxide compound and 250° C. or lower. The curing time is preferably 10 minutes to 48 hours, more preferably 30 minutes to 24 hours.

[0101] Examples of the joining member include automobile parts such as engines, transmissions, and automobile electrical components (ECUs (Electronic Control Units) and PCUs (Power Control Units)), as well as electric and electronic parts such as smartphones, tablets, liquid crystal displays, and batteries. Of these, automobile parts and electric and electronic parts are preferred.

[0102] The above-mentioned joining member is one that maintains the joined state of the members at an ambient temperature of 150°C or less, preferably at room temperature to 120°C.

[0103] The above-mentioned joining members are preferably easily dismantled, being joined with a certain degree of adhesive strength during normal use, but whose adhesive strength decreases to such an extent that the members can be separated after electromagnetic induction heating. Specifically, the initial shear adhesive strength of the joining members is preferably 1.2 MPa or more, particularly 1.5 MPa or more, and the shear adhesive strength of the joining members after electromagnetic induction heating is preferably 1 MPa or less. This shear adhesive strength is a value measured in accordance with the method specified in JIS K6850. Note that the initial and post-electromagnetic induction heating shear adhesive strengths within the above-mentioned ranges can be achieved by using a curable liquid silicone adhesive with a composition within the above-mentioned specific range.

[0104] [Dismantling Method] The method for dismantling bonded members of the present invention involves heating the metal portions of the bonded interface of the bonded members by electromagnetic induction, indirectly heating the portion or all of the cured product (cured adhesive silicone rubber product) formed by curing the curable liquid silicone adhesive that serves as the adhesive member that is in contact with the metal to 160°C to 800°C, causing the metal members to peel off naturally, or by manually applying force to the metal members or by using a tool such as a scraper to peel them off from the metal members, thereby dismantling the bonded members. The dismantled members can also be recycled.

[0105] The disassembly of components according to the present invention is presumably possible for the following reasons: The metal and adhesive forming the bonding interface have a large difference in linear expansion coefficient. Therefore, when heated, the difference in thermal expansion exerts a large thermal stress on the bonding interface. Furthermore, in the case of bonding components made of dissimilar materials, the difference in thermal expansion also exerts thermal stress between the bonding components. Furthermore, when the metal at the bonding interface is heated by electromagnetic induction, the hydroxide compound (A) in the cured product (cured adhesive silicone rubber product) obtained by curing the curable liquid silicone adhesive, which is the bonding component, is heated and decomposes to generate water. The generated water then vaporizes, causing foaming and a decrease in adhesive strength. As a result, the bonded components can be disassembled more quickly.

[0106] The frequency, power, and time for electromagnetic induction heating are preferably such that the members can be separated. The frequency can be selected from the range of 100 kHz to 500 kHz, and the power can be selected from the range of 500 W to 5 kW. The heating time by electromagnetic induction is not particularly limited, but is 2 minutes or less, preferably 1 minute or less, and more preferably 20 seconds or less.

[0107] Next, the present invention will be specifically explained using composition examples, composition comparison examples, and examples and comparative examples, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples. In the following examples, the room temperature is 23°C, the viscosity is the value measured at 23°C using a rotational viscometer, and the average particle size is the value determined as the cumulative weight average value D50 (or median size) using a particle size distribution measuring device using a laser light diffraction method. The BET specific surface area is a value calculated using the BET equation from an isothermal adsorption curve measured by a nitrogen gas adsorption method.

[0113] [Preparation of Bonding Member] A 25 mm wide, 50 mm long ADC12 (aluminum alloy die-cast) substrate and a 25 mm wide, 50 mm long PBT (polybutylene terephthalate resin, heat resistance temperature: 150°C or higher) substrate were used as the substrates, and any of the above Compositions 1 to 5 was used as the curable liquid silicone adhesive. Bonding thickness was 0.5 mm, and bonding area was 2.5 cm. 2 The ADC12 substrate and the PBT substrate were bonded together so that the bonded joint was in the range of 1 / 300 to 1 / 400 mm, and then cured at 23°C / 50% RH for 7 days to produce a bonded member bonded with a cured product of the curable liquid silicone adhesive (cured adhesive silicone rubber).

[0114] Evaluation of Dismantling Ease [Examples 1 to 3, Comparative Examples 1 and 2] The bonded members prepared above were evaluated by the following evaluation methods. The results are shown in Table 1, Figs. 1 and 2.

[0115] (1) Initial Adhesion Strength Using the bonded members prepared above, the shear adhesion strength was measured in accordance with the method specified in JIS K6850.

[0116] (2) Time to Disassembly EASYHEAT0224 manufactured by Aronix Co., Ltd. was used for electromagnetic induction heating. Electromagnetic induction heating was performed at a frequency of 286 kHz and an output of 2.3 kW, heating the metal portion of the bonding interface. Heating was continued until the bonded members were disassembled. The time required for disassembly was measured with a stopwatch, with a time of 15 seconds or less being considered a pass and a time of more than 15 seconds being considered a fail. For all compositions, the bonded members were disassembled by heating alone.

[0117] (3) State of the dismantled bonded surface after electromagnetic induction heating The state of the bonded surface of the dismantled ADC12 substrate was observed using a digital microscope VHX8000 manufactured by Keyence Corporation. The state before electromagnetic induction heating in Example 1 is shown in Figure 1, and the state after electromagnetic induction heating is shown in Figure 2. In addition, the remaining adhesive on the PBT substrate side was scraped off with a cutter knife, and the surface state was confirmed visually. The ADC12 substrate and the PBT substrate that showed no change in surface state before and after electromagnetic induction heating were considered to be no change.

[0118] (4) Adhesive strength after recycling The recyclability of the components disassembled by electromagnetic induction heating was confirmed. The ADC12 substrate was used as is, and the PBT substrate side had the adhesive scraped off with a cutter knife, then the adhesive was completely removed with a silicone decomposer (Silicone Cleaner X-100), washed with water, dried, and then used. The bonded components were prepared in the same manner as above. The shear adhesive strength was measured in accordance with the method specified in JIS K6850.

[0119]

[0120] As is clear from the above results, Examples 1 to 3, which are the method for dismantling bonded members of the present invention, were easily dismantled using electromagnetic induction heating in a short time of 12 to 14 seconds with little energy consumption, and were also recyclable. On the other hand, Comparative Example 1 was dismantled, but because no hydroxide compound was added, the effect of foaming to reduce adhesive strength was not achieved, and the time until dismantling was extended, but it was still recyclable. In Comparative Example 2, because 15.2% by mass of metal powder was added to the composition, the adhesive was also heated, causing the PBT substrate to melt, making it impossible to recycle.
