[0007] According to the present disclosure, oil resistance can be imparted to a substrate (particularly a pulp substrate).

[0008] <Definition of Terms> As used herein, an "n-valent group" refers to a group having n bonds, i.e., a group that forms n bonds. Furthermore, an "n-valent organic group" refers to an n-valent group containing carbon. Such an organic group is not particularly limited, but may be a hydrocarbon group or a derivative thereof. A hydrocarbon group derivative refers to a group having one or more of N, O, S, Si, amide, sulfonyl, siloxane, carbonyl, carbonyloxy, halogen, etc. at the end or molecular chain of the hydrocarbon group.

[0009] As used herein, the term "hydrocarbon group" refers to a group containing carbon and hydrogen, which is a group obtained by removing a hydrogen atom from a hydrocarbon. Such hydrocarbon groups include, but are not limited to, C 1-20Examples of hydrocarbon groups include aliphatic hydrocarbon groups and aromatic hydrocarbon groups. The "aliphatic hydrocarbon group" may be linear, branched, or cyclic, and may be saturated or unsaturated. The hydrocarbon group may contain one or more ring structures. The hydrocarbon group may be substituted with one or more substituents, if explicitly stated.

[0010] In this specification, when a term (symbol) that may appear multiple times in a chemical structure is defined, that definition applies independently at each occurrence, unless otherwise stated, regardless of whether "independently at each occurrence," "independently of each other," "independently of each other," or similar expressions are explicitly stated.

[0011] The chemical structures described herein should be understood not to encompass chemical structures that would be recognized by those skilled in the art as chemically impossible or extremely unstable.

[0012] <Repellent (Oil-Resistant Agent)> The repellent agent in the present disclosure adheres to a substrate (particularly a pulp substrate) and can impart liquid repellency, such as water resistance, oil resistance, water repellency, oil repellency, and / or stain resistance, to the substrate, and can also function as a water-resistant agent, oil-resistant agent, water repellent, oil repellent, and / or stain resistance. The repellent agent in the present disclosure is particularly suitable as an oil-resistant agent that imparts oil resistance to a substrate (particularly a pulp substrate).

[0013] Because the adhesion of chemicals to the surface of a pulp substrate is a reversible reaction, it is believed that the application of shear makes it difficult for adhesion to be maintained. In particular, the continuous application of shear during prolonged stirring is thought to be detrimental to chemical fixation. Despite this, the inventors have unexpectedly discovered that by using the repellent of the present disclosure, even when the pulp slurry after addition of the repellent is stirred for a long period of time (e.g., 30 minutes or more), the product (e.g., pulp mold) exhibits excellent high-temperature oil resistance.

[0014] The repellent of the present disclosure contains a liquid-repellent compound described below as an active ingredient. The liquid-repellent compound may be used by itself as a repellent, or may be used in combination with other ingredients as a repellent. Furthermore, the repellent of the present disclosure preferably contains a lignin compound described below. By including a lignin compound, the effects of the present disclosure can be effectively achieved.

[0015] The repellent agent in the present disclosure may not contain any compound selected from the group consisting of a compound having a fluoroalkyl group having 8 or more carbon atoms, a compound having a perfluoroalkyl group having 8 or more carbon atoms, a compound having a fluoroalkyl group having 4 or more carbon atoms, a compound having a perfluoroalkyl group having 4 or more carbon atoms, a compound having a perfluoroalkyl group, a compound having a fluoroalkyl group, and a compound having a fluorine atom. The repellent agent in the present disclosure can impart liquid repellency to a substrate even if it does not contain these fluorine compounds.

[0016] The volumetric abundance ratio of particles of 100 μm or larger in the repellent agent of the present disclosure, as measured by a laser diffraction scattering method, may be 0.1% or larger, 0.3% or larger, 0.5% or larger, 1% or larger, 1.5% or larger, 3% or larger, 4% or larger, 5% or larger, or 10% or larger, or may be 50% or smaller, 30% or smaller, 20% or smaller, 15% or smaller, 10% or smaller, 5% or smaller, 3% or smaller, or 1.5% or smaller, preferably 20% or smaller, and more preferably 5% or smaller. The method for achieving the volumetric abundance ratio of such particles within the above range is not limited, and may involve, for example, micronizing the particles in the raw material and / or dispersion using a grinder, homogenizer, or the like.

[0017] The volumetric abundance ratio of particles of 10 μm or larger in the composition of the present disclosure, as measured by a laser diffraction scattering method, may be 0.1% or larger, 0.3% or larger, 0.5% or larger, 1% or larger, 1.5% or larger, 3% or larger, 4% or larger, 5% or larger, or 10% or larger, or may be 50% or smaller, 30% or smaller, 20% or smaller, 15% or smaller, 10% or smaller, 5% or smaller, 3% or smaller, or 1.5% or smaller, preferably 30% or smaller, more preferably 15% or smaller. The method for achieving the volumetric abundance ratio of such particles within the above range is not limited, and may be, for example, by using a grinder, homogenizer, or the like to micronize the particles in the raw material and / or dispersion.

[0018] The volume median diameter of the repellent agent of the present disclosure, as measured by a laser diffraction scattering method, may be 0.01 μm or more, 0.05 μm or more, 0.1 μm or more, 0.2 μm or more, 0.3 μm or more, 0.4 μm or more, 0.5 μm or more, or 0.6 μm or more, or may be 10 μm or less, 5 μm or less, 3 μm or less, 1 μm or less, 0.9 μm or less, 0.8 μm or less, 0.7 μm or less, 0.6 μm or less, 0.5 μm or less, 0.4 μm or less, 0.3 μm or less, or 0.2 μm or less, preferably 1 μm or less, and in one embodiment, 0.01 μm or more and 1 μm or less. In the present disclosure, the volume median diameter refers to the median diameter (D50) in a volume-based particle size distribution measured by a laser diffraction scattering method.

[0019] The average particle size, as determined from a scanning electron microscope image of particles obtained by removing the liquid medium from a water-dispersed composition of the present disclosure (e.g., an oil-resistant agent for pulp) by natural drying at room temperature, may be 0.01 μm or more, 0.05 μm or more, 0.1 μm or more, 0.2 μm or more, 0.3 μm or more, 0.4 μm or more, 0.5 μm or more, or 0.6 μm or more, or 10 μm or less, 5 μm or less, 3 μm or less, 1 μm or less, 0.9 μm or less, 0.8 μm or less, 0.7 μm or less, 0.6 μm or less, 0.5 μm or less, 0.4 μm or less, 0.3 μm or less, or 0.2 μm or less, preferably 1 μm or less. To achieve a particle size within the above range, for example, the particles in the raw material and / or dispersion may be micronized using a grinder, homogenizer, or the like. The room temperature is 20°C to 30°C, particularly 25°C.

[0021] A sample liquid with a solid content of 0.1 g / L is subjected to anion demand measurement using a particle charge meter (MUTEK PCD-06 manufactured by BTG) using a 1 / 1000 N potassium polyvinyl sulfonate solution, and the ionic charge density (cationic charge density) is calculated using the following formula (1). Alternatively, the cation demand is measured in the same manner using a polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride solution instead of potassium polyvinyl sulfonate, and the ionic charge density (anionic charge density) is calculated using the following formula (1). Ionic charge density (μeq / g) = A / B (1) A: cation demand or anion demand (μeq / L) B: sample liquid concentration (g / L)

[0022] [Lignin Compound] The repellent of the present disclosure contains a lignin compound. By including the lignin compound, the effects of the present disclosure can be favorably achieved. For example, by including the lignin compound, the stability of the repellent when it is made into an aqueous dispersion can be improved.

[0023] In the present disclosure, the lignin compound is a compound selected from lignin and modified lignin. The modified lignin is a compound whose main component is a structure derived from lignin, in which a portion of the lignin has been chemically modified and / or decomposed into smaller molecules, and may be a lignin derivative, a decomposition product of lignin, a derivative of a decomposition product of lignin, or the like. Specific examples of the lignin compound include lignin, lignosulfonic acid, kraft lignin, soda lignin, soda-anthraquinone lignin, organosolv lignin, explosive lignin, and sulfuric acid lignin. Of these, lignosulfonic acid and kraft lignin are preferred.

[0024] The lignin compound has phenolic hydroxyl groups, and the amount of phenolic hydroxyl groups may be 1.5% or more, preferably 1.6% or more, more preferably 1.7% or more, and may be 20% or less, 15% or less, 10% or less, or 6.0% or less, preferably 5.5% or less, more preferably 5.0% or less, and in one aspect, 1.5 to 6.0%, 1.6 to 5.5%, or 1.7 to 5.0%. Furthermore, when the lignin compound is kraft lignin, the amount of phenolic hydroxyl groups is more preferably 2.0% or more, and particularly preferably more than 2.5%.

[0025] The amount of phenolic hydroxyl groups can be measured by measuring the differential extinction coefficient around 300 nm using a spectrophotometer. For example, an ionization differential spectrum is obtained by subtracting the absorption spectrum of a neutral solution containing the same concentration of lignin from the absorption spectrum of an alkaline solution containing the lignin sample (lignin compound). The amount of phenolic hydroxyl groups (%) is calculated using the following formula: Amount of phenolic hydroxyl groups (%) = 17 × Δαmax / 4100 × 100. Δαmax [L / (g cm)] represents the differential extinction coefficient. For details, see "Lignin Chemistry: Fundamentals and Applications," edited by Junzo Nakano, Uni Publishing, May 25, 1990, p. 541.

[0026] The weight average molecular weight of the lignin compound may be 500 or more, 1,000 or more, 2,000 or more, 3,000 or more, or 5,000 or more, preferably 1,000 or more, and may be 500,000 or less, 300,000 or less, 100,000 or less, 50,000 or less, or 30,000 or less, preferably 50,000 or less. The weight average molecular weight may be a polyethylene glycol-equivalent molecular weight measured by GPC.

[0027] The lignin compound may have a functional group (particularly an ionic group) other than a phenolic hydroxyl group. Examples of such a functional group include a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a polyalkylene oxide chain, a sulfonic acid group, a nitroxyl group, a carbonyl group, a phosphate group, an amino group, an epoxy group, a methylol group, a cyanate group, an isocyanate group, a vinyl group, and a maleimide group. An ionic group is particularly preferred, and an anionic group is preferable. This can further improve dispersibility. Examples of such functional groups include a carboxyl group, a sulfonic acid group, and a phosphate group. Among these, a sulfonic acid group is more preferred.

[0028] Lignin compounds have phenolic hydroxyl groups and may also have ionic groups, and therefore function as ionic dispersants (ionic surfactants), particularly anionic dispersants (anionic surfactants).

[0029] The lignin compound preferably has a sulfur-containing functional group such as a sulfo group or a thiol group, and the sulfur content may be 0.1% by mass or more, 0.3% by mass or more, 0.5% by mass or more, or 6% by mass or less, 5% by mass or less, 4% by mass or less, or 3% by mass or less.

[0030] The functional groups in the lignin compound can be quantitatively or qualitatively measured by instrumental analysis such as NMR, IR, and elemental analysis.

[0031] The lignin compound may contain structural units derived from other compounds, such as (alkyl)phenols (e.g., phenol and cresol), aromatic hydrocarbon compounds (e.g., benzene and naphthalene), etc., within the scope of the present disclosure.

[0032] It is difficult to uniformly specify the chemical structure of lignin compounds using a general formula or the like because the skeleton that constitutes lignin compounds has a very complex molecular structure.

[0033] The lignin compound may be in the form of a salt, for example, an alkali metal salt such as a sodium salt or a potassium salt, an alkaline earth metal salt such as a calcium salt, an ammonium salt, or a salt of an organic amine.

[0034] [Lignosulfonic Acid] The lignin compound is preferably lignosulfonic acid, which is a lignin compound modified with a sulfo group, and may be, for example, a compound having a skeleton in which a carbon atom at the α-position of the side chain of the hydroxyphenylpropane structure of lignin is cleaved to introduce a sulfo group.

[0035] The lignosulfonic acid may be a lignosulfonate salt, and examples of the salt include alkali metal salts such as sodium salts or potassium salts, alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium salts, ammonium salts, and salts of organic amines, such as sodium lignosulfonate.

[0036] As the lignosulfonic acid, commercially available products may be used, such as Vanilex HW (manufactured by Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd.), Sanex M (manufactured by Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd.), Pearlex NP (manufactured by Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd.), Sunflow RH (manufactured by Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd.), POLYFON, REAX (all manufactured by Ingevity), etc. As the sodium lignosulfonate, commercially available products may be used, such as Sanex (registered trademark) P252 and Vanilex (registered trademark) N manufactured by Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd., and Polyfon (registered trademark) F, Polyfon (registered trademark) T, Polyfon (registered trademark) O, and Polyfon (registered trademark) H manufactured by Ingevity.

[0037] The amount of the lignin compound may be 0.01 parts by weight or more, 0.1 parts by weight or more, 1 part by weight or more, 3 parts by weight or more, 5 parts by weight or more, 10 parts by weight or more, 15 parts by weight or more, 20 parts by weight or more, 50 parts by weight or more, 75 parts by weight or more, or 100 parts by weight or more, relative to 100 parts by weight of the liquid-repellent compound, and may be 500 parts by weight or less, 300 parts by weight or less, 200 parts by weight or less, 100 parts by weight or less, 30 parts by weight or less, 20 parts by weight or less, 10 parts by weight or less, 5 parts by weight or less, 3 parts by weight or less, or 1 part by weight or less.

[0038] [Liquid-repellent compound] The repellent agent of the present disclosure includes a liquid-repellent compound. The liquid-repellent compound of the present disclosure adheres to a substrate (particularly a pulp substrate) and imparts liquid repellency, such as water resistance, oil resistance, water repellency, oil repellency, and / or stain resistance, particularly oil resistance, to the substrate.

[0039] [Characteristics, etc.] The characteristics, etc. that the liquid repellent compound may have are listed below.

[0040] The HD (n-hexadecane) contact angle of the liquid-repellent compound may be 10° or more, 20° or more, 25° or more, 30° or more, 35° or more, 40° or more, 45° or more, 50° or more, 55° or more, 60° or more, or 65° or more, preferably 25° or more, more preferably 30° or more, and may be 100° or less, 90° or less, or 75° or less. When the liquid-repellent compound has an HD contact angle equal to or greater than the above lower limit, it can impart good liquid repellency (particularly oil repellency) to the substrate. The HD contact angle is the static contact angle of the liquid-repellent compound with respect to a spin-coated film, and is obtained by dropping 2 μL of HD onto the spin-coated film at room temperature (25° C.) and measuring the contact angle 1 second after the drop lands.

[0041] The water contact angle of the liquid-repellent compound may be 35° or more, 40° or more, 45° or more, 50° or more, 55° or more, 65° or more, 75° or more, 85° or more, 90° or more, or 100° or more, and may be 160° or less, 140° or less, 130° or less, 120° or less, 110° or less, 100° or less, or 90° or less. When the liquid-repellent compound has a water contact angle equal to or greater than the above lower limit, it can impart good liquid repellency (particularly water repellency) to the substrate. The water contact angle is the static contact angle of the liquid-repellent compound with respect to a spin-coated film, and is obtained by dropping 2 μL of water onto the spin-coated film at room temperature (25° C.) and measuring the contact angle 1 second after the drop has landed.

[0042] The liquid-repellent compound is preferably a biobased compound containing carbon of biobased origin. The biobased content is measured in accordance with ASTM D6866. The biobased content may be 20% or more, preferably 30% or more, more preferably 50% or more, even more preferably 60% or more, even more preferably 70% or more, and most preferably 80% or more or 90% or more, for example, 100%. A high biobased content means that the amount of fossil resource-based materials, such as petroleum, used is small. From this perspective, the higher the biobased content of the liquid-repellent compound, the better.

[0043] The biodegradability of the liquid-repellent compound after 180 days is preferably 5% or more. Since this reduces the environmental impact, a higher biodegradability is preferable. The biodegradability of the liquid-repellent compound after 180 days may be, for example, 10% or more, 20% or more, 30% or more, 50% or more, 60% or more, 70% or more, 80% or more, or 90% or more, preferably 30% or more, more preferably 50% or more, even more preferably 70% or more, and most preferably 80% or more. The biodegradability of the liquid-repellent compound after 60 days is preferably 5% or more. Since this reduces the environmental impact, a higher biodegradability is preferable. The biodegradability of the liquid-repellent compound after 60 days may be, for example, 10% or more, 15% or more, 20% or more, 25% or more, 30% or more, 35% or more, 40% or more, or 45% or more, preferably 10% or more, more preferably 30% or more. Such biodegradability may be biodegradability as defined in JIS K 6953-1 or ASTM D6400.

[0044] The melting point of the liquid-repellent compound may be 30°C or higher, 40°C or higher, 60°C or higher, 80°C or higher, 100°C or higher, or 120°C or higher, preferably 40°C or higher, and may be 250°C or lower, 225°C or lower, 200°C or lower, 150°C or lower, 130°C or lower, 120°C or lower, 110°C or lower, 100°C or lower, 80°C or lower, or 50°C or lower.

[0045] [Structure, etc.] The liquid-repellent compound in the present disclosure does not necessarily have any group selected from the group consisting of a fluoroalkyl group having 8 or more carbon atoms, a perfluoroalkyl group having 8 or more carbon atoms, a fluoroalkyl group having 4 or more carbon atoms, a perfluoroalkyl group having 4 or more carbon atoms, a perfluoroalkyl group, a fluoroalkyl group, and a fluorine atom. Even if the liquid-repellent compound does not contain these fluorine-containing groups, it can impart liquid repellency to a substrate.

[0046] The liquid repellent compound in the present disclosure may not be a fatty acid ester having a glycosidic bond. A fatty acid ester having a glycosidic bond is typically a compound having a structure in which a fatty acid is attached to a hydroxy group of a compound having a glycosidic bond (typically a sugar (monosaccharide or polysaccharide)) via an ester bond.

[0047] The liquid-repellent compound may be a compound having at least one group selected from the group consisting of optionally substituted hydrocarbon groups having 6 or more carbon atoms and polysiloxane groups. In particular, the liquid-repellent compound may be a compound having at least one group selected from the group consisting of optionally substituted monovalent hydrocarbon groups having 6 to 40 carbon atoms and monovalent polysiloxane groups.

[0048] (Optionally Substituted Hydrocarbon Group Having 6 or More Carbon Atoms) The liquid repellent compound may have an optionally substituted hydrocarbon group having 6 or more carbon atoms.

[0049] The hydrocarbon group may be an aromatic hydrocarbon group or an aliphatic hydrocarbon group, particularly an aliphatic hydrocarbon group, such as a saturated or unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group (such as an alkyl group or an alkenyl group). The hydrocarbon group may be branched, cyclic, or linear, and is more preferably linear.

[0050] The hydrocarbon group is typically monovalent and may be located at the end of the molecule, and the hydrocarbon group may have one or more methyl groups at the end.

[0182] [Polymerization Method] Vinyl polymers can be produced by known polymerization methods, and the polymerization reaction conditions can be selected arbitrarily. Examples of such polymerization methods include solution polymerization, suspension polymerization, emulsion polymerization, and condensation polymerization.

[0183] In solution polymerization, a method is employed in which monomers are dissolved in an organic solvent in the presence of a polymerization initiator, and after purging with nitrogen, the mixture is heated and stirred at a temperature in the range of 30 to 120°C for 1 to 10 hours. Examples of polymerization initiators include azobisisobutyronitrile, benzoyl peroxide, di-t-butyl peroxide, lauryl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, t-butyl peroxypivalate, and diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate. The polymerization initiator is used in an amount of 0.01 to 20 parts by weight, for example, 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the monomers.

[0184] The organic solvent is inert to the monomers and dissolves them, and may be, for example, an ester (e.g., an ester having 2 to 40 carbon atoms, specifically, ethyl acetate or butyl acetate), a ketone (e.g., a ketone having 2 to 40 carbon atoms, specifically, methyl ethyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone, or methyl isobutyl ketone), or an alcohol (e.g., an alcohol having 1 to 40 carbon atoms, specifically, ethanol, butanol, or isopropyl alcohol). Specific examples of the organic solvent include acetone, chloroform, HCFC-225, isopropyl alcohol, cyclohexane, benzene, toluene, xylene, petroleum ether, tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene, tetrachlorodifluoroethane, and trichlorotrifluoroethane. The organic solvent is used in an amount of 10 to 3,000 parts by weight, for example, 50 to 2,000 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the total of the monomers.

[0185] Emulsion polymerization involves emulsifying monomers in water in the presence of a polymerization initiator and an emulsifier, purging with nitrogen, and then polymerizing the mixture at a temperature ranging from 50 to 80°C for 1 to 20 hours with stirring. Examples of polymerization initiators that can be used include water-soluble initiators such as benzoyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, t-butyl perbenzoate, 1-hydroxycyclohexyl hydroperoxide, 3-carboxypropionyl peroxide, acetyl peroxide, azobisisobutylamidine dihydrochloride, sodium peroxide, potassium persulfate, and ammonium persulfate, as well as oil-soluble initiators such as azobisisobutyronitrile, benzoyl peroxide, di-t-butyl peroxide, lauryl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, t-butyl peroxypivalate, and diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate. The polymerization initiator is used in an amount ranging from 0.01 to 10 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the monomer.

[0186] To obtain a polymer aqueous dispersion with excellent shelf stability, it is desirable to polymerize the monomer by microparticulating it in water using an emulsifying device capable of applying powerful crushing energy, such as a high-pressure homogenizer or ultrasonic homogenizer. Furthermore, various anionic, cationic, or nonionic emulsifiers can be used as emulsifiers, and are used in a range of 0.5 to 20 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of monomer. It is preferable to use anionic and / or nonionic and / or cationic emulsifiers. If the monomers are not completely compatible, it is preferable to add a compatibilizer, such as a water-soluble organic solvent or a low-molecular-weight monomer, that will fully compatibilize these monomers. Addition of a compatibilizer can improve emulsification and copolymerization properties.

[0187] The water-soluble organic solvent may be any of the organic solvents described above. Examples include acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, ethyl acetate, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, and ethanol. These may be used in an amount of 1 to 50 parts by weight, for example, 10 to 40 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of water. Examples of low-molecular-weight monomers include methyl methacrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, and 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate. These may be used in an amount of 1 to 50 parts by weight, for example, 10 to 40 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the total amount of monomers.

[0188] A chain transfer agent may be used in the polymerization. The molecular weight of the polymer can be changed depending on the amount of chain transfer agent used. Examples of chain transfer agents include mercaptan group-containing compounds such as lauryl mercaptan, thioglycol, and thioglycerol (particularly alkyl mercaptans (e.g., having 1 to 40 carbon atoms)), and inorganic salts such as sodium hypophosphite and sodium hydrogen sulfite. The amount of chain transfer agent used may be in the range of 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, for example, 0.1 to 5 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the total amount of monomers.

[0189] [Amine-modified compound] As an example of a liquid-repellent compound, an amine-modified compound will be described. The amine-modified compound is a compound obtained by chemically modifying an amine compound so as to exhibit liquid-repellency.

[0190] Due to their structure, the amine-modified compounds disclosed herein have excellent dispersibility in liquid media, and the repellents disclosed herein can have stable performance. Repellents that use polymeric compounds as active ingredients tend to have broad molecular weight distributions and contain relatively large amounts of impurities. On the other hand, amine-modified compounds can be made into low-molecular-weight compounds, narrowing (uniformizing) the molecular weight distribution, and can therefore have good performance.

[0191] [Structure etc.] The molecular weight of the amine-modified product may be 200 or more, 300 or more, 350 or more, 400 or more, 500 or more, 550 or more, or 750 or more, and may be 3000 or less, 2500 or less, 2000 or less, 1500 or less, 1000 or less, 900 or less, 800 or less, 750 or less, or 500 or less.

Examples of the active hydrogen-containing group include an amino group (an amino group that is not adjacent to a carbonyl group, such as a primary or secondary amino group), a hydroxyl group, and a carboxyl group. In particular, the amine-modified product of the present disclosure may not have a primary or secondary amino group that is not adjacent to a carbonyl group.

[0193] The amine-modified product in the present disclosure may be a polyamide having a plurality of amide structures, for example, a polyamide having a plurality of modifying groups (for example, Z N ) may be a polyamide modified via an amide structure. Here, the amide may be an amide structure contained in a urethane group, a urea group, an imide, or the like.

[0194] The amine-modified product may be a compound obtained by modifying an amine (raw amine compound) with a hydrocarbon group having 6 or more carbon atoms, which may have a substituent, or a polysiloxane group.

[0195] In the amine-modified product, one or more amino groups of the amine are substituted with a modifying group. The modifying group is preferably a hydrocarbon group or polysiloxane group having 6 or more carbon atoms, which may have a substituent, and particularly a monovalent hydrocarbon group or monovalent polysiloxane group having 6 to 40 carbon atoms, which may have a substituent. From the viewpoint of improving liquid repellency, the amine-modified product may have a structure in which an amine is modified with a monovalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 40 carbon atoms.

When the polyol-modified product in the present disclosure is a polyglycerol-modified product obtained by modifying polyglycerol, the degree of polymerization of the polyol-modified product refers to the average degree of polymerization of the polyglycerol. The average degree of polymerization of polyglycerol is the average degree of polymerization (n) calculated from the hydroxyl value by end group analysis.

(Formula 1) Average molecular weight = 74n + 18 (Formula 2) Hydroxyl value = 56110(n + 2) / average molecular weight The hydroxyl value in the above (Formula 2) is a numerical value that serves as an index of the number of hydroxyl groups contained in the polyglycerol. The hydroxyl value is calculated from the amount of potassium hydroxide required to neutralize the acetic acid required to acetylate the free hydroxyl groups contained in 1 g of polyglycerol, and is calculated in accordance with "Standard Test Methods for the Analysis of Fats, Oils and Related Compounds (I), 2003 Edition," compiled by the Japan Oil Chemists' Society.

When a multi-layer antireflection layer is formed, the outermost layer may contain SiO 2 and / or SiO is preferably used. When the article to be manufactured is an optical glass component for a touch panel, a transparent electrode, for example, a thin film using indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium zinc oxide, may be provided on a portion of the surface of the substrate (glass). Furthermore, the substrate may have an insulating layer, an adhesive layer, a protective layer, a decorative frame layer (I-CON), an atomization film layer, a hard coating film layer, a polarizing film, a phase difference film, a liquid crystal display module, or the like, depending on its specific specifications.

[0569] [Method for manufacturing pulp product] The pulp product (paper product) in the present disclosure can be obtained by treating a pulp base material with a repellent containing a liquid-repellent compound to obtain a pulp composition, and then subjecting the pulp composition to treatment steps such as drying, heating, molding, etc. as necessary. The pulp product may be an oil-resistant pulp product that has been treated with an oil-proofing agent.

[0570] The repellent agent of the present disclosure can be applied to a pulp substrate as a treatment agent (particularly a surface treatment agent) by a conventionally known method. The treatment method may involve dispersing and diluting the repellent agent of the present disclosure in an organic solvent or water, as necessary, and applying it to the interior and / or surface of the pulp substrate by a known method such as dip coating, spray coating, or foam coating, followed by drying. The dilution ratio may be varied as appropriate depending on the concentration and application of the repellent agent, but may be 3 to 2000 times, for example, 10 to 100 times. After drying, a pulp product is obtained to which the solid components of the repellent are attached. If necessary, the repellent agent may be applied together with an appropriate crosslinking agent, followed by curing.

[0571] The repellent agent can be applied to the pulp substrate by any of the known methods for treating a pulp substrate with a liquid. The pulp substrate may be immersed in the repellent agent, the pulp substrate and the repellent agent may be mixed, or the solution may be applied or sprayed onto the pulp substrate. The treated pulp substrate is preferably dried and cured by heating to develop liquid repellency. The heating temperature may be, for example, 100°C to 200°C, 100°C to 170°C, or 100°C to 120°C. In the present disclosure, the heating time may be 5 seconds to 60 minutes, for example, 30 seconds to 3 minutes.

[0572] Pulp substrate treatment methods can include internal treatment methods in which a repellent is added to the pulp substrate (e.g., in the form of pulp slurry) before papermaking, or external treatment methods in which a repellent is applied to the pulp substrate (e.g., pulp product) after papermaking. Examples of internal treatment methods include mixing and immersion, which may include a step of adding a repellent to the pulp slurry and stirring and mixing it. Examples of external treatment methods include spraying, coating, immersion, and foam application, and specific examples include pond-type two-roll size presses, gate-roll type, and rod-metering size presses. The treatment can be either external or internal. For example, when the pulp substrate is paper, the repellent can be applied to the paper, or the solution can be attached or sprayed onto the paper, or the repellent can be mixed with the pulp slurry before papermaking. When the pulp substrate is a fibrous material, treatment methods include padding, immersion, spraying, and coating. Examples of padding treatments include methods using padding devices described on pages 396-397 of "Textile Dyeing and Processing Dictionary" (published by Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, 1963) and pages 256-260 of "Color Dyeing Chemistry III" (published by Jikkyo Publishing Co., Ltd., 1975). Examples of coating treatments include methods using coating machines described on pages 473-477 of "Dyeing and Finishing Equipment Directory" (published by Sen-sha, 1981). Examples of immersion treatments include methods using batch dyeing machines described on pages 196-247 of "Dyeing and Finishing Equipment Directory" (published by Sen-sha, 1981). Examples of suitable dyeing machines include liquid jet dyeing machines, air jet dyeing machines, drum dyeing machines, winch dyeing machines, washer dyeing machines, and cheese dyeing machines. Examples of spray treatments include methods using air sprayers that spray the treatment solution in a mist using compressed air, and hydraulic atomization air sprayers.

[0573] The treatment method may be an internal addition treatment in which a repellent is added to a pulp slurry before papermaking. The internal addition treatment may include filling the pulp slurry into a mold and allowing a liquid medium to permeate out of the mold to form pulp. For example, the internal addition treatment may include one or more of the following steps: adding a repellent to the pulp slurry and stirring and mixing it; suction-dehydrating the pulp composition prepared in the above step through a mesh of a predetermined shape to deposit the pulp composition and form a molded pulp product intermediate; and molding and drying the molded pulp product intermediate in a heated mold to obtain a molded pulp product. The treated paper may be simply dried at room temperature or at an elevated temperature, and then optionally subjected to a heat treatment depending on the paper's properties. The heat treatment temperature may be 150°C or higher, 180°C or higher, or 210°C or higher, and 300°C or lower, 250°C or lower, or 200°C or lower, and particularly 80°C to 180°C. Heat treatment within this temperature range can exhibit excellent oil resistance, etc. The internally treated pulp base material may be treated with a repellent by external addition, and further liquid repellent compounds or repellents may be attached to the surface.

[0574] The treatment method may be an external addition treatment in which a repellent agent is applied to the pulp base material after papermaking. Size presses for external addition treatment can also be divided into the following categories based on the application method. One application method is the so-called pond-type two-roll size press, in which a coating liquid (size liquid) is supplied to the nip formed by passing paper between two rubber rolls, creating a coating liquid pool called a pond, and the paper is passed through this coating liquid pool to apply the size liquid to both sides of the paper. Other application methods include the gate roll type, in which the size liquid is applied using a surface transfer method, and the rod metering size press. In the pond-type two-roll size press, the size liquid easily penetrates into the paper, while in the surface transfer type, the size liquid components tend to remain on the paper surface. In the surface transfer type, the coating layer tends to remain on the paper surface compared to the pond-type two-roll size press, and a larger coating layer is formed on the surface than in the pond-type two-roll size press. In the present disclosure, performance can be imparted to paper even when the former pond-type two-roll size press is used. Papers treated in this way may exhibit excellent oil resistance etc., after simple drying at room temperature or at elevated temperatures, optionally followed by a heat treatment which may range in temperature up to 300°C, for example up to 200°C, especially between 80°C and 180°C, depending on the properties of the paper.

[0575] Specific examples of pulp products include paper, paper containers, pulp molded products, food packaging materials, food containers, gypsum board base paper, coated base paper, medium-quality paper, general liners and corrugating media, neutral white roll paper, neutral liners, rust-proof liners and metal interleaving paper, kraft paper, neutral printing and writing paper, neutral coated base paper, neutral PPC paper, neutral thermal paper, neutral pressure-sensitive base paper, neutral inkjet paper, and neutral information paper, etc. Suitable examples of pulp products include food packaging materials and food containers, such as pulp products for food contact applications, particularly pulp molded products for food contact applications.
