Description

Water-repellent material and method for manufacturing a water-repellent material

[0001] The present invention relates to a water-repellent member with excellent abrasion resistance and a method for manufacturing the water-repellent member, and more particularly to a water-repellent member having a functional film layer on the surface of a substrate, a layer formed on the functional film layer using an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups (hydroxyl groups bonded to silicon atoms) in its molecule, and a layer formed on the primer layer using a hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound, and a method for manufacturing the water-repellent member.

[0002] In recent years, there has been a growing demand for technologies that make surfaces resistant to dirt and easier to clean, in order to improve appearance and visibility. In particular, the surfaces of liquid crystal displays, organic EL displays, eyeglass lenses, smartphones, wearable devices, car navigation systems, electronic device casings, cosmetic packaging, kitchen countertops, and transport equipment bodies are prone to the adhesion of sebum and oil stains, making the application of a water-repellent layer desirable. However, fluorine compounds that possess water-repellent properties have very low surface free energy and exhibit non-stick and non-adherent properties to various substrates, making it difficult to directly adhere these fluorine compounds to the substrate. Furthermore, water-repellent films obtained from fluorine compounds tend to be easily charged, making it difficult to easily realize a water-repellent surface with excellent antistatic properties.

[0003] To solve this adhesion problem, as a treatment agent that can water-repellent the surface of a substrate such as glass, for example, Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2011-116947 (Patent Document 1) discloses a fluorooxyalkylene group-containing polymer composition represented by the following average composition formula. (In the formula Rf 1 Ha-C d F 2d A and B are divalent linear fluorooxyalkylene groups containing 5 to 100 repeating units of O- (where d is an integer from 1 to 6 and may differ for each repeating unit), independently of each other, Rf 2 The base or the following formula A group selected from the groups shown by Rf 2(where F, H, or a monovalent fluorine-containing group with a -CF3 or -CF2H terminal, Q is a divalent organic group, Z is a 2-7 valent organopolysiloxane residue having a siloxane bond, R is a C1-C4 alkyl group or phenyl group, X is a hydrolyzable group, a is an integer from 2 to 3, b is an integer from 1 to 6, c is an integer from 1 to 5, and β is an integer from 0 to 1.)

[0004] However, the treatment agent proposed in Patent Document 1 exhibits relatively good durability, but it is not sufficient, and it is particularly difficult to obtain excellent adhesion to metals, metal oxides, resins, sapphires, ceramics, etc.

[0005] As a method to improve adhesion, a method has been disclosed in which an SiO2 layer is provided as a primer layer using a dry method (vapor deposition, sputtering, or CVD) (International Publication No. 2014 / 097388: Patent Document 2). While it has been shown that this method can form a water-repellent layer with excellent durability, it does not show sufficient durability when subjected to rigorous reliability tests such as surface abrasion.

[0006] Furthermore, components with a water-repellent layer formed by the above method often have a surface resistance value greater than that of the base material, leading to the problem of static electricity. While it has been proposed to incorporate various antistatic agents into the primer layer and water-repellent layer, from the perspective of adding antistatic agents to the composition, the water-repellency and stain resistance of the surface are insufficient, making it difficult to achieve both high abrasion resistance and antistatic properties on a water-repellent surface.

[0007] Furthermore, as mentioned above, fluorine compounds exhibit excellent properties such as water repellency, but in recent years, their use may be avoided depending on the application. This is because fluorine compounds are difficult to decompose in nature and tend to accumulate in the environment. Against this backdrop, there has been a growing demand for the development of surface protective agents for non-fluorine materials.

[0008] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2011-116947, International Publication No. 2014 / 097388

[0009] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and aims to provide a water-repellent member that has excellent abrasion resistance (particularly fabric abrasion resistance) and antistatic properties, and a method for manufacturing a water-repellent member that forms a water-repellent layer with excellent antistatic properties and abrasion resistance (particularly fabric abrasion resistance) on various substrates.

[0010] The inventors, after diligent research to achieve the above objectives, have developed a method comprising: forming a functional film layer mainly composed of silicon dioxide or a functional film layer in which at least the outermost layer is silicon dioxide on at least one surface of a substrate; wet coating a solution containing an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule and a solvent onto the outer surface of the functional film layer; drying the solvent to form and laminate a primer layer on at least one surface of the substrate; wet coating a solution containing a hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound and a solvent onto the outer surface of the primer layer, followed by drying the solvent, or dry coating a hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound obtained by evaporating the solvent from the solution; and curing the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound to form the outer surface of the primer layer. The present invention was made by discovering that a water-repellent member obtained by a method including the step of forming and laminating a water-repellent layer on a surface, having a functional film layer on at least one surface of a substrate, a primer layer on the outer surface of the functional film layer, and a water-repellent layer on the outer surface of the primer layer, wherein the primer layer is a layer with a thickness of 10 to 500 nm containing an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule, and the water-repellent layer is a layer with a thickness of 0.5 to 50 nm containing a cured product of a hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound, can stably and easily impart a functional water-repellent coating with excellent abrasion resistance and antistatic properties (i.e., the surface resistance value of the water-repellent member is more than an order of magnitude lower than when no primer layer is provided), to various substrates.

[0013] The present invention will be described in more detail below. The water-repellent member of the present invention is a water-repellent member having a functional film layer on at least one surface of a substrate, a primer layer on the outer surface of the functional film layer, and a water-repellent layer on the outer surface of the primer layer, wherein the primer layer is a layer with a thickness of 10 to 500 nm containing an organosilicon compound having a plurality of silanol groups in its molecule, and the water-repellent layer is a layer with a thickness of 0.5 to 50 nm containing a cured product of a hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound.

[0014] The water-repellent member of the present invention can be obtained, for example, by forming a functional film layer mainly composed of silicon dioxide or a functional film layer in which at least the outermost layer is silicon dioxide on the surface (at least one surface) of various substrates; then wet-coating a solution containing an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule and a solvent onto the outer surface of the functional film layer; then drying the solvent to form and laminate a primer layer on at least one surface of the substrate; and further wet-coating a water-repellent agent containing a hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound onto the outer surface of the primer layer and then drying the solvent, or by dry-coating a hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound obtained by evaporating the solvent from the water-repellent agent containing the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound, and then curing the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound to form and laminate a water-repellent layer on the outer surface of the primer layer.

[0015] [Substrate] The substrate used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but examples include resins, ceramics, metals, quartz, glass, sapphires, diamonds, etc. It is preferable that the substrate does not have silanol groups on its surface, and resins and ceramics are particularly preferred.

[0016] Here, examples of resins include thermoplastic resins and thermosetting resins. Specifically, these include celluloid, cellulose acetate, cellulose propionate, cellulose butyrate, triacetylcellulose, aliphatic polyamides such as 6-nylon, 6,6-nylon, and 12-nylon, aromatic polyamides, ABS resin, AS resin, polystyrene, polyethylene (low-density or high-density), polyolefins such as polypropylene, cycloolefin polymers, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyvinyl alcohol, polyacetal, polycarbonate, saturated polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polybutylene terephthalate, aromatic polyesters, polyether ketones, polyether ether ketones, polysulfone, and polyethersulfone. Examples of thermoplastic resins include phenyl acetate, polyetherimide, polyarylate, polymethylpentene, ionomer, liquid crystal polymer, polyimide, polyamideimide, fluororesin, polyphenylene sulfide, (modified) polyphenylene oxide, thermoplastic polyurethane, or thermosetting resins such as epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester, thermosetting polyurethane, polyimide, polymers of diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate (commonly known as CR-39), (halogenated) bisphenol A di(meth)acrylate copolymer, (halogenated) bisphenol A urethane-modified di(meth)acrylate copolymer, diacrylate compounds, vinyl benzyl alcohol and unsaturated thiol compounds, etc.

[0017] Examples of ceramics include aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, silicon oxide, titanium oxide, yttrium oxide, magnesium oxide, aluminum nitride, zirconium nitride, silicon nitride, titanium nitride, boron nitride, silicon carbide, titanium carbide, boron carbide, as well as composite ceramics and glass ceramics made from these materials.

[0018] Specifically, examples of metals include silver, gold, cobalt, chromium, copper, iron, iridium, molybdenum, nickel, palladium, platinum, silicon, titanium, vanadium, tungsten, zirconium, their alloys, and various types of stainless steel (SUS).

[0019] Examples of glass include soda-lime glass, borosilicate glass, aluminosilicate glass, quartz glass, lead glass, and alkali-free glass. Furthermore, any of these glasses may be chemically strengthened.

[0020] [Functional film layer (first layer)] Examples of functional film layers include hard coat layers, anti-reflective layers, and IR cut filter layers, but the functional film layer is not limited to these, and any layer in which the entire layer is mainly composed of silicon dioxide, or at least the outermost layer of the layer is made of silicon dioxide, is acceptable. Here, "mainly composed of silicon dioxide" means that the functional film layer contains 50% by mass or more, particularly 90-100% by mass, of silicon dioxide. The functional film layer can be formed (laminated), for example, by coating it on the outer surface of the substrate using a known method.

[0021] Here, examples of functional film layers include a hard coat layer mainly composed of a silicon dioxide layer, a hard coat layer consisting of a two-layer structure or a laminated structure of three or more layers in which a silicon dioxide layer is formed on a hard coat layer, an anti-reflective layer consisting of a two-layer structure formed on a substrate so that silicon dioxide is the outermost layer, or a laminated structure of three or more layers such as a silicon dioxide layer and a high refractive index layer, and an IR cut filter layer consisting of a two-layer structure or a laminated structure of three or more layers formed on a substrate so that silicon dioxide is the outermost layer.

[0022] In addition, in functional film layers consisting of two or more laminated structures, layers other than the silicon dioxide layer include titanium dioxide, niobium pentoxide, tungsten oxide, cerium oxide, tantalum pentoxide, zinc oxide, indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, zirconium oxide, silicon nitride, magnesium fluoride, and the like.

[0023] The functional film layer can be formed (laminated) by coating the outer surface of the substrate using known methods such as wet coating (dipping, brush coating, spin coating, spray coating, gravure coating, die coating, bar coating, slit coating) or vapor deposition.

[0024] The thickness of the functional film layer is preferably 5 to 500 nm for the entire functional film layer (silicon dioxide layer) or the outermost layer of the functional film (silicon dioxide layer), and more preferably 5 to 150 nm. If the silicon dioxide layer of the entire functional film layer or the outermost layer of the functional film is less than 5 nm, adhesion with the primer layer may be insufficient, and if it exceeds 500 nm, transparency may be impaired. In this invention, the film thickness can be measured by known methods such as spectroscopic ellipsometry or X-ray reflectivity.

[0025] [Primer layer (second layer)] The primer layer is a layer with a thickness of 10 to 500 nm containing an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule. The primer layer can be formed (laminated), for example, by wet coating the outer surface of the functional film layer with a solution containing an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule and a solvent, and then drying and removing the solvent.

[0026] Organosilicon compounds having multiple silanol groups in their molecules preferably have two or more, more preferably three or more, and even more preferably four or more silanol groups in their molecules. If the number of silanol groups in the molecule is too small, the adhesion with the water-repellent layer (third layer) laminated on the outer surface of the primer layer (second layer) may be poor, or the surface resistance value of the resulting water-repellent member may not be low enough. The amount of silanol groups in the organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule is preferably 0.002 to 1.00 mol / g, particularly 0.004 to 0.85 mol / g, and especially 0.005 to 0.70 mol / g. The amount of silanol groups can be measured by the Grignard method, which quantifies the amount of methane gas generated using a methyl Grignard reagent.

[0027] Organosilicon compounds having multiple silanol groups (hydroxyl groups bonded to silicon atoms) in their molecule can be obtained by hydrolysis and partial condensation of organosilicon compounds having multiple hydrolyzable groups bonded to silicon atoms, such as alkoxy groups (methoxy groups, ethoxy groups, etc.) and halogen atoms (chlorine atoms, etc.).

[0028] Here, organosilicon compounds having multiple hydrolyzable groups in the molecule include methyltrimethoxysilane, dimethyldimethoxysilane, phenyltrimethoxysilane, dimethoxydiphenylsilane, tetramethoxysilane, tetraethoxysilane, methyltriethoxysilane, dimethyldiethoxysilane, phenyltriethoxysilane, n-propyltrimethoxysilane, n-propyltriethoxysilane, hexyltrimethoxysilane, hexyltriethoxysilane, decyltrimethoxysilane, 1,6-bis(trimethoxysilyl)hexane, trifluoropropyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane, 2-(3,4- Examples include epoxycyclohexyl)ethyltrimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropyltriethoxysilane, p-styryltrimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldiethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane, 3-acryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, tris-(trimethoxysilylpropyl)isocyanurate, trichlorosilane, dichlorosilane, etc. Two or more of these may be used in combination.

[0029] In the present invention, it is preferable to use an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule, which is obtained by hydrolyzing an organosilicon compound such as an organosilane having multiple hydrolyzable groups as described above, and then partially dehydrating and condensing it to increase its molecular weight (partial condensate). In the present invention, a partial condensate means an organopolysiloxane compound having multiple residual silanol groups in its molecule, obtained by partially dehydrating and condensing an organosilane having multiple silanol groups (hydroxyl groups bonded to silicon atoms) in its molecule, which is obtained by hydrolyzing an organosilicon compound such as an organosilane having multiple hydrolyzable groups as described above.

[0030] The hydrolysis and partial condensation products of organosilicon compounds having multiple hydrolyzable groups in the molecule (organosilicon compounds having multiple silanol groups in the molecule) preferably have a weight-average molecular weight of 200 to 100,000, and more preferably 300 to 50,000. In this invention, the weight-average molecular weight can be determined, for example, as the polystyrene equivalent value in gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analysis using THF as the developing solvent (the same applies hereinafter).

[0031] In the present invention, organosilicon compounds having multiple silanol groups in the molecule are particularly preferred as hydrolysis and partial condensation products of silane compounds having four hydrolyzable groups, and among these, hydrolysis and partial condensation products of tetraalkoxysilanes such as tetramethoxysilane and tetraethoxysilane are preferred.

[0032] Organosilicon compounds having multiple silanol groups in their molecule are preferably diluted with a solvent. Preferred solvents for dissolving organosilicon compounds having multiple silanol groups in their molecule include alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and butanol, and ethers such as propylene glycol monomethyl ether and polyethylene glycol monopropyl ether, but are not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected based on wettability with the functional film layer and boiling point. The concentration of the organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule in the solution containing the organosilicon compound and the solvent is preferably 0.01 to 10% by mass, and more preferably 0.1 to 4% by mass. If the concentration is too low, the uncoated area will increase, and if the concentration is too high, secondary aggregation of silanol groups may occur.

[0033] Furthermore, the solution containing an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule and a solvent may optionally contain components such as UV absorbers, light stabilizers, antioxidants, leveling agents, defoamers, pigments, dyes, dispersants, antistatic agents, and surfactants such as antifogging agents. It is preferable that these components be added in a range where the amount of organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule in the primer layer obtained after removing the solvent is 50% by mass or more (50 to 100% by mass), particularly 80 to 100% by mass (i.e., any of the above components are 50% by mass or less (0 to 50% by mass), preferably 0 to 20% by mass). From the viewpoint of further improving the water repellency and stain resistance of the water-repellent member, it is preferable not to contain antistatic agents such as alkali metal atoms (or their metal salts), and from the viewpoint of adhesion, it is preferable to use a solution consisting substantially of an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule and a solvent.

[0034] Furthermore, a hydrolysis condensation catalyst, such as organotin compounds (e.g., dibutyltin dimethoxide, dibutyltin dilaurate), organotitanium compounds (e.g., tetra-n-butyl titanate, tetra-n-propyl titanate), organozirconium compounds (e.g., tetra-n-butyl zirconate, tetra-n-propyl zirconate), organic acids (e.g., acetic acid, methanesulfonic acid, carboxylic acid), inorganic acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid), solid acids (e.g., resin-supported acids, silica-supported acids), organic bases (e.g., amines, trialkylamines, nitrogen-containing cyclic compounds), or solid bases (e.g., resin-supported bases, silica-supported bases) may be added as needed to a solution containing an organosilicon compound having multiple silanol groups in its molecule and a solvent.

The amount used is preferably 3 to 9 moles, particularly 3 to 5 moles, per mole of halogen atoms in the reaction product of the hydrocarbon terminal group-containing compound having an alkenyl group at the terminal and the SiH group and silyl halogen group-containing compound.

[0098] In preparation method 1, the reaction conditions for converting substituents (halogen atoms) on the silyl group to other hydrolyzable groups are preferably a temperature of 0 to 80°C, particularly 20 to 60°C, for 0.5 to 72 hours, and especially 1 to 36 hours.

[0099] Subsequently, by removing the solvent and unreacted products under reduced pressure, a hydrocarbon terminal group-containing compound represented by the above general formula (1) can be obtained.

[0100] Furthermore, the hydrocarbon terminal group-containing compound represented by formula (1) according to the present invention may include a compound in which some or all of the above hydrolyzable groups have been hydrolyzed (a compound in which X is an OH group), and may also include a compound in which some or all of these OH groups are condensed.

[0101] It is preferable to dilute the above hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound with a solvent beforehand, and such a solvent is not particularly limited as long as it can uniformly dissolve the above hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound.

[0102] The above solvents may be mixed in two or more forms, and it is preferable to uniformly dissolve the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound. The optimal concentration of the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound to be dissolved in the solvent varies depending on the processing method, and any amount that is easy to weigh is acceptable. However, when direct coating, it is preferable to use 0.01 to 100 parts by mass, particularly 0.05 to 30 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the total of the solvent and the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound. When vapor deposition is performed, it is preferable to use 1 to 100 parts by mass, particularly 3 to 30 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the total of the solvent and the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound. In either coating case, 100 parts by mass refers to the case where no solvent is used and the coating is performed directly.

[0103] The water repellent containing the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound may optionally contain hydrolysis condensation catalysts, such as organotin compounds (e.g., dibutyltin dimethoxide, dibutyltin dilaurate), organotitanium compounds (e.g., tetra-n-butyl titanate, tetra-n-propyl titanate), organozirconium compounds (e.g., tetra-n-butyl zirconate, tetra-n-propyl zirconate), organic acids (e.g., acetic acid, methanesulfonic acid, carboxylic acid), inorganic acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid), and organic bases (e.g., amines, trialkylamines, nitrogen-containing cyclic compounds). Among these, acetic acid, tetra-n-butyl titanate, and dibutyltin dilaurate are particularly desirable. The amount of hydrolysis condensation catalyst added is a catalytic amount, usually 0.001 to 5 parts by mass, particularly 0.1 to 1 part by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound.

[0111] The paraffin oils mentioned above include linear, branched, or cyclic paraffin oils with 2,000 or fewer carbon atoms. Specific examples of paraffin oils include liquid paraffin, paraffin wax, polyethylene, polypropylene, and PAO (polyalphaolefin). While paraffin oils that are liquid at room temperature (25°C) are preferred, solid paraffin oils can also be used.

[0112] When paraffin oil is included, the amount is preferably 0.001 to 80 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the above hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound.

[0113] Examples of the polyol ester oils mentioned above include polyol ester compounds consisting of condensates of di- to hexavalent alcohols and fatty acids having 3 to 22 carbon atoms. Specifically, examples of polyol ester compounds include di(2-ethylhexanoic acid) neopentyl glycol ester, di(oleic acid) neopentyl glycol ester, di(stearic acid) neopentyl glycol ester, tri(2-ethylhexanoic acid) trimethylolethane ester, tri(oleic acid) trimethylolethane ester, tri(stearic acid) trimethylolethane ester, tri(2-ethylhexanoic acid) trimethylolpropane ester, tri(oleic acid) trimethylolpropane ester, tri(stearic acid) trimethyl Examples include rolpropane esters, tri(2-ethylhexanoic acid) glycerol esters, tri(oleic acid) glycerol esters, tri(stearic acid) glycerol esters, tetra(2-ethylhexanoic acid) pentaerythritol esters, tetra(oleic acid) pentaerythritol esters, tetra(stearic acid) pentaerythritol esters, hexa(2-ethylhexanoic acid) dipentaerythritol esters, hexa(oleic acid) dipentaerythritol esters, and hexa(stearic acid) dipentaerythritol esters. Polyol ester oils that are liquid at room temperature (25°C) are preferred, but those that are solid can also be used.

[0114] When polyol ester oil is incorporated, the amount is preferably 0.001 to 80 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the above hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound.

[0116] When silicone oil is incorporated, the amount is preferably 0.001 to 80 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the above hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound.

[0117] Water-repellent agents containing hydrolyzable nonfluorine compounds can be applied to substrates by known methods such as wet coating (dipping, brush coating, spin coating, spraying, gravure coating, die coating, bar coating, slit coating) and vapor deposition. Coating conditions can follow conventional methods, but since the primer layer is coated and formed by a wet coating method, it is more efficient to apply the water-repellent agent containing the hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound by a wet coating method as well. Hydrolyzable nonfluorine compounds can be cured at room temperature (25°C) in 1 to 24 hours, but heating at 30 to 200°C for 1 minute to 1 hour may further shorten the curing time. Curing under humid conditions (50 to 90% RH) is preferable to promote hydrolysis.

[0118] Furthermore, before applying the water-repellent agent containing a hydrolyzable nonfluorine compound, the surface of the primer layer on the substrate may be treated with a cleaning or surface activation treatment such as plasma treatment, UV treatment, or ozone treatment.

[0119] The film thickness of the water-repellent layer formed and laminated on the outer surface of the primer layer is 0.5 to 50 nm, particularly preferably 1 to 20 nm. If the film thickness is too thick, the surface resistance value of the resulting water-repellent member will be high, and if it is too thin, the surface characteristics and abrasion resistance of the resulting water-repellent member will not be sufficient. The film thickness can be measured by means such as spectroscopic reflectance measurement method, X-ray reflectance measurement method, spectroscopic ellipsometry measurement method, etc.

[0120] In the water-repellent member of the present invention thus obtained, the surface resistance value can be made 1.0×10 12 Ω / □ or less, preferably 1.0×10 7 to 1.0×10 12 Ω / □, more preferably 1.0×10 8 to 1.0×10 11 Ω / □. If the surface resistance value is too large, electronic devices such as organic EL may malfunction, and also, the visibility of the surface may decrease due to the adhesion of dust etc., and the optical characteristics and texture may be impaired. Furthermore, the surface becomes easily soiled. In the present invention, the surface resistance value can be measured by a commercially available resistivity meter, for example, High Rester UX MCP-HT800 manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Analytech Co., Ltd. In order to make the surface resistance value within the above range, it is preferable that the film thickness of the primer layer as the second layer is 10 to 500 nm, and further, the film thickness of the water-repellent layer as the third layer formed on the outer surface of the primer layer is 0.5 to 50 nm.

[0121] The surface resistance value of the water-repellent member of the present invention is one digit or more lower than that in the case where there is no primer layer (second layer).

[0122] Examples of water-repellent members obtained in this manner include casings for car navigation systems, tablet PCs, smartphones, foldable smartphones, bendable smartphones, flexible devices, digital cameras, digital video cameras, PDAs, portable audio players, car audio systems, game equipment, etc., lenses such as camera lenses, security cameras, in-vehicle lenses, eyeglass lenses, sunglasses, AR lenses, VR lenses, etc., medical equipment such as endoscopes, scalpels, blood pressure monitors, X-ray CT scanners, MRI scanners, etc., touch panel surfaces for liquid crystal displays, organic EL displays, flexible devices, etc., protective films, anti-reflective films, IR cut filters, optical articles such as compact discs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, window glass for automobiles, trains, aircraft, etc., headlamp covers, headlight lenses, etc., tiles, exterior building materials, system kitchens, bathtubs, shower heads, faucets, range hoods, other kitchen building materials, waiting rooms, works of art, bodies of transportation equipment, mirrors, radar covers for millimeter-wave sensors, etc.

[0123] The present invention will be specifically described below with reference to synthesis examples, examples, and comparative examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In the following examples, the mol amount of the compound is, 1 The values ​​were calculated by dividing by the molecular weight of the polymer identified by 1H-NMR analysis. The film thickness was measured by spectroscopic ellipsometry using a spectroscopic ellipsometer. The weight-average molecular weight of the hydrolysis / partial condensate of tetraethoxysilane or tetramethoxysilane used to form the primer layer was measured by static light scattering (SLS), and the amount of silanol groups was measured by the amount of methane gas generated when each product was reacted with Grignard reagent (methylmagnesium iodide) using a gas burette. The room temperature was 25°C.

[0170] The following measurements were performed on water-repellent members (test specimens) having a functional film layer, primer layer, or water-repellent layer as shown in Table 1 below.

[0171] [Antistatic Properties] To evaluate the antistatic properties, the surface resistance of the water-repellent material prepared as described above was measured using a resistivity meter (HighLester UX MCP-HT800) manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Analytec Co., Ltd. under the following conditions. The results (surface resistance values) are shown in Table 1. Applied voltage: 1,000V

[0172] [Water Repellency] For the water-repellent member prepared as described above, the contact angle (water repellency) of the water-repellent layer or primer layer, which is the outermost layer, was measured with respect to water using a Drop Master contact angle meter (Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd., DMo-701SA) (droplet: 2 μl, temperature: 25°C, relative humidity: 40%). The measurement was performed by photographing the droplet 1 second after dropping with a CCD camera connected to the contact angle meter, and then analyzing the droplet image using FAMAS, the contact angle analysis software attached to the contact angle meter, to measure the contact angle between the water-repellent member surface and the droplet. The contact angle was calculated using the θ / 2 method. The analysis conditions are as follows. The results (water contact angle) are shown in Table 1. In this invention, a good (water-repellent) water contact angle is defined as 90 degrees or higher. [Analysis Conditions] Method: Droplet method (θ / 2 method) Droplet recognition: Automatic Droplet recognition line (distance from needle tip): 50 dots Algorithm: Automatic Image mode: Frame threshold level: Automatic

[0173] [Fabric Abrasion Resistance] For the water-repellent material prepared as described above, the contact angle (water repellency) of the water-repellent layer or primer layer, which is the outermost layer, was measured with a rubbing tester (manufactured by Shinto Kagaku Co., Ltd.) under the following conditions, and the fabric abrasion resistance was evaluated in the same manner as described above. The test environment conditions were 25°C and 40% relative humidity. The results (water contact angle after fabric abrasion test, change in contact angle after abrasion) are shown in Table 1. [Fabric Abrasion Resistance Test Conditions] Nonwoven fabric: Bencot (manufactured by Asahi Kasei Corporation) Contact area: 4 cm 2 Distance traveled (one way): 40 mm; Speed: 4,800 mm / min; Load: 500 gf / cm 2 Number of wear cycles: 2,000

[0174]

[0175] As is clear from the results in Table 1, Examples 1 to 24 exhibited excellent water repellency and excellent fabric abrasion resistance. On the other hand, Comparative Examples 1 to 9 showed insufficient abrasion resistance, with the water contact angle after fabric abrasion decreasing by more than 10 degrees from the initial value. Comparative Examples 1 and 2 lacked sufficient abrasion resistance because they did not provide a functional film layer or a primer layer, respectively. Comparative Example 3 provided a polysilazane layer in the functional film layer, but lacked a primer layer, resulting in insufficient abrasion resistance. Comparative Examples 4 to 9 provided an anti-reflective layer in the functional film layer, did not provide a primer layer, and changed the type of water repellent (water-repellent layer) containing a hydrolyzable non-fluorine compound, but still lacked sufficient abrasion resistance. Comparative Example 10 provided a functional film layer and a primer layer, but did not provide a water-repellent layer, resulting in antistatic properties but no water repellency. Comparative Example 11 lacked sufficient abrasion resistance because the primer layer was too thin. Comparative Example 12 used a fluorine compound as the water-repellent layer, resulting in water repellency but poor fabric abrasion resistance. Furthermore, in Examples 1 to 24, the primer layer was made 10 nm or longer, resulting in a surface resistance value of 1.0 × 10⁻⁶. 12 The ratio could be reduced to Ω / □ or less (resulting in good antistatic properties).
