Description

熱線遮蔽材Heat ray shielding material
 本発明は、熱線遮蔽材に関する。より詳しくは、可視光透過性および遮熱性能が良好であり、金属粒子含有層と基材であるポリマーフィルムとの密着性が良好な熱線遮蔽材に関する。 The present invention relates to a heat ray shielding material. More specifically, the present invention relates to a heat ray shielding material having good visible light permeability and heat shielding performance and good adhesion between a metal particle-containing layer and a polymer film as a substrate.
 近年、二酸化炭素削減のための省エネルギー施策の一つとして、自動車や建物の窓に対する熱線遮蔽性付与材料が開発されている。熱線遮蔽性(日射熱取得率)の観点からは、吸収した光の室内への再放射(吸収した日射エネルギーの約1/3量)がある熱線吸収型より、再放射がない熱線反射型が望ましく、様々な提案がなされている。 In recent years, heat ray shielding materials for automobiles and building windows have been developed as an energy-saving measure for reducing carbon dioxide. From the viewpoint of the heat ray shielding property (acquisition rate of solar heat), the heat ray reflection type without re-radiation is better than the heat ray absorption type with re-radiation of absorbed light into the room (about 1/3 of the absorbed solar energy). Various proposals have been made.
 赤外線遮蔽フィルタとして、Ag平板粒子を用いたフィルタが提案されている(特許文献1参照)。しかし、特許文献1に記載の赤外線遮蔽フィルタはプラズマディスプレイパネル(PDP)に用いることを意図したものであり、かかるAg平板粒子は、その配列制御がなされていないことから、主に赤外域の波長光赤外線吸収体として機能し、積極的に熱線を反射する材料として機能するものではなかった。したがって、かかるAg平板粒子からなる赤外線遮蔽フィルタを直射日光の遮熱に使用すると、この赤外線吸収フィルタ自体が暖まることになり、その熱で室温が上昇してしまうために、赤外線遮蔽材としての機能は不十分であった。また、特許文献1の実施例ではAg平板粒子を含む分散液をガラス上に塗布して乾燥させて赤外線遮蔽フィルタを形成しているものの、クロスカット試験についての記載がなかった。 A filter using Ag tabular grains has been proposed as an infrared shielding filter (see Patent Document 1). However, the infrared shielding filter described in Patent Document 1 is intended to be used in a plasma display panel (PDP), and the Ag tabular grains are not controlled in their arrangement, and therefore mainly have wavelengths in the infrared region. It functioned as a light infrared absorber and did not function as a material that actively reflects heat rays. Therefore, when an infrared shielding filter composed of such Ag tabular grains is used for heat shielding of direct sunlight, the infrared absorbing filter itself is warmed, and the room temperature rises due to the heat, so that it functions as an infrared shielding material. Was insufficient. Moreover, in the Example of patent document 1, although the dispersion liquid containing Ag tabular grain was apply | coated on glass and it was made to dry and the infrared rays shielding filter was formed, there was no description about the crosscut test.
 特許文献2には粒状の銀を用いた波長選択膜が記載されている。特許文献2ではAgのスパッタリングおよび熱処理によって粒状の銀粒子が分布したAg層を形成しており、同文献の図3によれば粒状の銀粒子の形状は不定型のものが多かった。また、特許文献2にはクロスカット試験についての記載がなかった。 Patent Document 2 describes a wavelength selective film using granular silver. In Patent Document 2, an Ag layer in which granular silver particles are distributed is formed by sputtering and heat treatment of Ag. According to FIG. 3 of the same document, the shape of the granular silver particles is often indefinite. Further, Patent Document 2 did not describe a crosscut test.
 一方、特許文献3には、六角形状乃至円形状の平板状金属粒子を60個数%以上有し、前記六角形状乃至円形状の平板状金属粒子の主平面が前記金属粒子含有層の一方の表面に対して平均0°~±30°の範囲で面配向している熱線遮蔽材が開示されている。しかしながら、特許文献3にはクロスカット試験についての記載がなかった。 On the other hand, in Patent Document 3, there are 60% by number or more of hexagonal or circular tabular metal particles, and the main plane of the hexagonal or circular tabular metal particles is one surface of the metal particle-containing layer. In contrast, a heat ray shielding material having a plane orientation in an average range of 0 ° to ± 30 ° is disclosed. However, Patent Document 3 did not describe a crosscut test.

 本発明者の検討によれば、特許文献1に記載の赤外線遮蔽フィルターは赤外線吸収型のため、太陽光の遮熱に使用すると赤外線吸収体が暖まってしまい、室内の温度上昇を起こしてしまう問題があった。また、窓ガラスに貼り合わせたとき、太陽光が当たる場所と当たらない場所で温度上昇が異なる影響でガラスが割れる(熱われ)などが起こる問題があった。
 特許文献2は粒状の銀で赤外線を遮蔽すると、スペクトルの半値巾が大きく、赤外線をシャープに遮蔽することができないため、太陽光のエネルギーが多い短波側の赤外線を十分に遮蔽できない問題があった。
 特許文献1のように銀平板粒子をランダムに並べると吸収しかしないのに対し、特許文献3に記載の熱線遮蔽材のように規則配列させると反射するようになり、赤外線遮蔽フィルムとして有利になるものであった。ここで、特許文献3には上記のとおりクロスカット試験について検討されていなかったため、本発明者が同文献の実施例の塗布膜を作成してクロスカット試験を行った結果、基材フィルムと銀平板粒子含有層とがクロスカット試験で剥離してしまう問題があることがわかった。
According to the study of the present inventor, since the infrared shielding filter described in Patent Document 1 is an infrared absorption type, the infrared absorber is warmed when used for heat insulation of sunlight, causing a temperature rise in the room. was there. In addition, when pasted on a window glass, there is a problem that the glass breaks (becomes hot) due to a difference in temperature rise between a place where sunlight hits and a place where sunlight does not hit.
Patent Document 2 has a problem in that when infrared rays are shielded with granular silver, the half-width of the spectrum is large and the infrared rays cannot be shielded sharply, so that the infrared rays on the short wave side where the energy of sunlight is large cannot be sufficiently shielded. .
When silver tabular grains are randomly arranged as in Patent Document 1, they are only absorbed, but when they are regularly arranged like the heat ray shielding material described in Patent Document 3, they are reflected, which is advantageous as an infrared shielding film. It was a thing. Here, since the patent document 3 did not examine the cross-cut test as described above, the present inventor created the coating film of the example of the document and performed the cross-cut test. It has been found that there is a problem that the tabular grain-containing layer peels off in the cross-cut test.
 これに対し、特許文献4にはクロスカット密着力が良好である赤外線遮蔽フィルムが記載されている。同文献の実施例では金属粒子として三酸化アンチモン酸化スズ粒子を使用しており、また明細書中に金属粒子の形状や配列についての記載はなかった。また、特許文献4に記載の方式では、上記の特許文献2の方式と同様に太陽光の遮蔽に使用すると赤外線を反射しないため窓が熱くなり、熱われなどが起こる問題があった。 In contrast, Patent Document 4 describes an infrared shielding film having good cross-cut adhesion. In the examples of the same document, antimony trioxide tin oxide particles are used as metal particles, and the shape and arrangement of the metal particles are not described in the specification. Further, the method described in Patent Document 4 has a problem in that when used for shielding sunlight like the method of Patent Document 2 described above, infrared rays are not reflected, so that the window becomes hot and is heated.
 本発明は、従来における前記諸問題を解決することを目的とする。すなわち、本発明が解決しようとする課題は、可視光透過性および遮熱性能(日射反射率)が良好であり、金属粒子含有層と基材であるポリマーフィルムとの密着性が良好な熱線遮蔽材を提供することにある。 The object of the present invention is to solve the conventional problems. That is, the problem to be solved by the present invention is that the visible light transmittance and the heat shielding performance (solar reflectance) are good, and the heat ray shielding has good adhesion between the metal particle-containing layer and the polymer film as the substrate. To provide materials.
 本発明者は、前記課題を解決すべく、金属粒子含有層における金属平板粒子の存在状態を鋭意検討した結果、金属平板粒子の形状や、その面配向があまりにランダムであると熱線遮蔽性能に劣ることがわかった。また、特許文献3の構成では、金属粒子含有層と基材であるポリマーフィルムとのクロスカット密着性が不十分であり、ポリマーフィルムが剥がれてしまうことがあることを見出すに至った。
 そこで、特許文献3の構成において、金属平板粒子層にバインダーとしてポリマーを存在させることにより、可視光透過性および遮熱性能(日射反射率)が良好であり、金属粒子含有層と基材であるポリマーフィルムとのクロスカット密着性が良好な熱線遮蔽材を提供できることを見出すに至った。

I understood it. Moreover, in the structure of patent document 3, it came to discover that the crosscut adhesiveness of the metal particle content layer and the polymer film which is a base material is inadequate, and a polymer film may peel off.
Then, in the structure of patent document 3, by making a polymer exist as a binder in a metal tabular grain layer, visible light permeability and heat insulation performance (sunlight reflectance) are favorable, and it is a metal particle content layer and a base material. It came to discover that the heat ray shielding material with favorable crosscut adhesiveness with a polymer film can be provided.

The heat ray shielding material of Example 2 was produced.
It has been found that the addition of gelatin disturbs the arrangement of the metal particles and deteriorates the plane orientation (see Table 2 described later).

 上記表2の結果から、本発明の熱線遮蔽材は、可視光透過性、遮熱性能(日射反射率)、およびクロスカット密着性の評価結果が全て良好であることが分かった。金属平板粒子を表面偏在させるための機構は十分に解明されていないが、塗布乾燥時に液面上に金属粒子を浮かせることが必須であり、乾燥時に変化するであろう表面張力のバランスが取れていることが重要と考えている。
 比較例1は金属粒子含有層の金属平板粒子の偏在が本発明の範囲を満たさないものであり、クロスカット密着性が悪いことがわかった。
 比較例2は、金属粒子含有層用の塗布液にさらに主ポリマーとなるようにゼラチンを添加したものであり、得られた熱線遮蔽材の遮熱性能(日射反射率)が低下したことがわかった。なお、遮熱性能の低下した理由は、金属粒子の配列が乱れて面配向性が悪化した結果と考えられる。
From the results of Table 2 above, it was found that the heat ray shielding material of the present invention had all good evaluation results of visible light transmittance, heat shielding performance (solar reflectance), and cross-cut adhesion. Although the mechanism for unevenly distributing the surface of the metal tabular grains has not been fully elucidated, it is essential that the metal particles float on the liquid surface during coating and drying, and the surface tension that will change during drying is balanced. I think it is important.
In Comparative Example 1, it was found that the uneven distribution of the metal tabular grains in the metal particle-containing layer did not satisfy the scope of the present invention, and the cross-cut adhesion was poor.
In Comparative Example 2, gelatin was further added to the coating solution for the metal particle-containing layer so as to become a main polymer, and it was found that the heat shielding performance (solar reflectance) of the obtained heat ray shielding material was lowered. It was. In addition, it is thought that the reason for the decrease in the heat shielding performance is a result of deterioration of the plane orientation due to disorder of the arrangement of the metal particles.
 本発明の熱線遮蔽材は、可視光透過性及び日射反射率が高く、遮熱性能に優れ、金属粒子含有層と基材であるポリマーフィルムとのクロスカット密着性が高いために金属平板粒子の配列を維持できるので、例えば自動車、バス等の乗り物用フィルムや貼合せ構造体、建材用フィルムや貼合せ構造体などとして、熱線の透過を防止することの求められる種々の部材として好適に利用可能である。 The heat ray shielding material of the present invention has high visible light transmittance and high solar reflectance, is excellent in heat shielding performance, and has high cross-cut adhesion between the metal particle-containing layer and the polymer film as the base material. Since the arrangement can be maintained, it can be suitably used as various members that are required to prevent the transmission of heat rays, such as films for automobiles, buses, etc., laminated structures, films for building materials, laminated structures, etc. It is.
