Il est aussi apprécié pour son aspect brillant et sa résistance aux graffitis. On est donc amené à revêtir toutes sortes d'objets avec un film de PVDF. Cependant, il est nécessaire que le film présente une bonne adhérence sur le substrat à protéger, présente une très bonne résistance thermique que demandent les applications extérieures soumises à des conditions climatiques sévères ou les procédés de transformation réalisés à haute température. Il est nécessaire aussi que le film présente une bonne flexibilité et une bonne résistance à la rupture de façon à résister aux sollicitations mécaniques lors de la pose du film sur l'objet ou une fois le film posé sur l'objet lorsque ce dernier est mis en forme, par exemple par emboutissage. Un test applicatif utilisé consiste à déchirer un film qui a subi un vieillissement en étuve et à voir si la déchirure se propage facilement ou pas.PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) because of its very good resistance to weather, radiation and chemicals is a useful polymer for protecting objects and materials. It is also appreciated for its glossy appearance and its resistance to graffiti. We are therefore required to cover all kinds of objects with a PVDF film. However, it is necessary that the film has a good adhesion to the substrate to be protected, has a very good thermal resistance that is required by outdoor applications subject to severe climatic conditions or processing processes carried out at high temperature. It is also necessary for the film to have good flexibility and good breaking strength so as to withstand mechanical stresses when the film is applied to the object or when the film is placed on the object when the object is put on. shaped, for example by stamping. An application test used consists of tearing a film which has been aged in an oven and to see if the tear spreads easily or not.

Elle a aussi mis au point une structure multicouche associant le film à base de PVDF à une feuille de PET ou de PEN.

De préférence, on utilise le PVDF flexible pour les compositions A et B.As regards PVDF, PVDF, homopolymers of vinylidene fluoride (VDF, CH 2 = CF 2 ) and copolymers of VDF containing preferably at least 50% by weight of VDF and at least one other copolymerizable fluorinated monomer, are thus designated. with the VDF. Preferably, the PVDF contains, by weight, at least 50% of VDF, more preferably at least 75% and more preferably at least 85%.

Preferably, the flexible PVDF is used for compositions A and B.
Avantageusement, le comonomère fluoré copolymérisable avec le VDF est choisi par exemple parmi le fluorure de vinyle; le trifluoroéthylène (VF3); le chlorotrifluoroethylène (CTFE); le 1 ,2-difluoroéthylène; le tetrafluoroéthylèneAdvantageously, the fluorinated comonomer copolymerizable with VDF is chosen for example from vinyl fluoride; trifluoroethylene (VF3); chlorotrifluoroethylene (CTFE); 1,2-difluoroethylene; tetrafluoroethylene
(TFE); l'hexafluoropropylène (HFP); les perfluoro(alkyl vinyl) éthers tels que le perfluoro(méthyl vinyl)éther (PMVE), le perfluoro(éthyl vinyl) éther (PEVE) et le perfluoro(propyl vinyl) éther (PPVE); le perfluoro(1 ,3-dioxole); le perfluoro(2,2- diméthyl-1 ,3-dioxole) (PDD).(TFE); hexafluoropropylene (HFP); perfluoro (alkyl vinyl) ethers such as perfluoro (methyl vinyl) ether (PMVE), perfluoro (ethyl vinyl) ether (PEVE) and perfluoro (propyl vinyl) ether (PPVE); perfluoro (1,3-dioxole); perfluoro (2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxole) (PDD).
De préférence le comonomère fluoré est choisi parmi le chlorotrifluoroethylène (CTFE), l'hexafluoropropylène (HFP), le trifluoroéthylène (VF3) et le tetrafluoroéthylène (TFE). Le comonomère est avantageusement I1HFP car il copolymérise bien avec le VDF et permet d'apporter de bonnes propriétés thermomécaniques. De préférence, le copolymère ne comprend que du VDF et de l'HFP.Preferably, the fluorinated comonomer is chosen from chlorotrifluoroethylene (CTFE), hexafluoropropylene (HFP), trifluoroethylene (VF3) and tetrafluoroethylene (TFE). The comonomer is advantageously 1 HFP since it copolymerizes well with VDF and makes it possible to provide good thermomechanical properties. Preferably, the copolymer comprises only VDF and HFP.
Avantageusement, le PVDF a une viscosité allant de 100 Pa.s à 2000 Pa.s, la viscosité étant mesurée à 23O0C, à un gradient de cisaillement de 100 s"1 à l'aide d'un rhéomètre capillaire. En effet, ce type de PVDF est bien adapté à l'extrusion. De préférence, le PVDF a une viscosité allant de 300 Pa.s à 1200 Pa.s, la viscosité étant mesurée à 23O0C, à un gradient de cisaillement de 100 s"1 à l'aide d'un rhéomètre capillaire. S'agissant du PMMA, on désigne ainsi les homopolymères du méthacrylate de méthyle (MMA) et les copolymères contenant au moins 50% en poids de MMA et au moins un autre monomère copolymérisable avec le MMA.Advantageously, the PVDF has a viscosity ranging from 100 Pa.s to 2000 Pa.s, the viscosity being measured at 230 ° C., at a shear rate of 100 sec -1 using a capillary rheometer. this type of PVDF is well suited to extrusion, preferably the PVDF has a viscosity ranging from 300 Pa.s to 1200 Pa.s, the viscosity being measured at 230 ° C. at a shear rate of 100 s "1 using a capillary rheometer. As regards PMMA, homopolymers of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and copolymers containing at least 50% by weight of MMA and at least one other monomer copolymerizable with MMA are thus designated.
A titre d'exemple de comonomère copolymérisable avec le MMA, on peut citer par exemple les (méth)acrylates d'alkyle, l'acrylonitrile, le butadiène, le styrène, l'isoprène. Des exemples de (méth)acrylates d'alkyle sont décrits dans KIRK- OTHMER, Encyclopedia of chemical technology, 4eme édition dans le Vol. 1 pages 292-293 et dans le Vol. 16 pages 475-478.As examples of comonomer copolymerizable with MMA, mention may be made, for example, of alkyl (meth) acrylates, acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene and isoprene. Examples of (meth) alkyl acrylates are described in Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 4th edition in Vol. 1 pages 292-293 and in Vol. 16 pages 475-478.
Avantageusement, le PMMA comprend en poids de 0 à 20% et de préférence 5 à 15% d'un (méth)acrylate d'alkyle en CrC8, qui est de préférence l'acrylate de méthyle et/ou l'acrylate d'éthyle. Le PMMA peut être fonctionnalisé c'est-à-dire qu'il contient par exemple des fonctions acide, chlorure d'acide, alcool, anhydride. Ces fonctions peuvent être introduites par greffage ou par copolymérisation. Avantageusement, c'est une fonction acide apportée par le comonomère acide acrylique. Deux fonctions acide acrylique voisines peuvent se déshydrater pour former un anhydride. La proportion de fonctions peut être de 0 à 15% en poids du PMMA comprenant les fonctions éventuelles.Advantageously, the PMMA comprises, by weight, from 0 to 20% and preferably 5 to 15% of a C 1 -C 8 alkyl (meth) acrylate, which is preferably methyl acrylate and / or acrylate. ethyl. PMMA can be functionalized, that is to say it contains, for example, acid, acid chloride, alcohol, anhydride functions. These functions can be introduced by grafting or by copolymerization. Advantageously, it is an acid function provided by the acrylic acid comonomer. Two neighboring acrylic acid functions may dehydrate to form an anhydride. The proportion of functions can be from 0 to 15% by weight of the PMMA including the possible functions.
Le PMMA peut comprendre éventuellement au moins un élastomère acrylique mais il est préférable d'éviter d'utiliser un tel PMMA car l'élastomère acrylique peut induire un blanchiment du film. Il existe des qualités commerciales de PMMA dites « choc » qui contiennent un élastomère acrylique sous forme de particules multicouches. L'élastomère acrylique est alors présent dans le PMMA tel qu'il est commercialisé (c'est-à-dire introduit dans la résine au cours du procédé de fabrication) mais il peut aussi être ajouté lors de la fabrication du film. La proportion d'élastomère acrylique varie de 0 à 30 parts pour 70 à 100 parts de PMMA, le total faisant 100 parts. Les particules multicouches, appelées aussi couramment core-shell (noyau-écorce), peuvent être utilisées comme élastomère acrylique, elles comprennent au moins une couche élastomérique (ou molle), c'est-à-dire une couche formée d'un polymère ayant une température de transition vitreuse (T9) inférieure à -50C et au moins une couche rigide (ou dure), c'est-à-dire formée d'un polymère ayant une T9 supérieure à 250C. La taille des particules est en général inférieure au μm et avantageusement comprise entre 50 et 300 nm. On trouvera des exemples de particules multicouches de type core-shell dans les documents suivants : EP 1061100 A1, US 2004/0030046 A1, FR-A-2446296 ou US 2005/0124761 A1. On préférera des particules ayant au moins 80% en poids de phase élastomérique molle. L'élastomère acrylique a pour fonction d'améliorer la résistance en traction du PMMA (modifiant choc) et de favoriser la souplesse du PMMA.PMMA may optionally comprise at least one acrylic elastomer but it is preferable to avoid using such a PMMA because the acrylic elastomer can induce bleaching of the film. There are commercial grades of "shock" PMMA which contain an acrylic elastomer in the form of multilayer particles. The acrylic elastomer is then present in the PMMA as it is marketed (that is to say introduced into the resin during the manufacturing process) but it can also be added during the manufacture of the film. The proportion of acrylic elastomer ranges from 0 to 30 parts for 70 to 100 parts of PMMA, the total being 100 parts. The multilayer particles, also commonly known as core-shell, may be used as acrylic elastomer, they comprise at least one elastomeric (or soft) layer, ie a layer formed of a polymer having a glass transition temperature (T 9 ) of less than -5 ° C. and at least one rigid (or hard) layer, that is to say formed of a polymer having a T 9 greater than 25 ° C. The size particles are generally less than 1 μm and advantageously between 50 and 300 nm. Examples of core-shell multilayer particles can be found in the following documents: EP 1061100 A1, US 2004/0030046 A1, FR-A-2446296 or US 2005/0124761 A1. Particles having at least 80% by weight of soft elastomeric phase are preferred. The function of the acrylic elastomer is to improve the tensile strength of PMMA (impact modifier) and to promote the flexibility of PMMA.
Le MVI (melt volume index ou indice de fluidité en volume à l'état fondu) du PMMA peut être compris entre 2 et 15 cm3/10 min mesuré à 23O0C sous une charge de 3,8 kg.The MVI (melt volume index or melt flow rate by volume in the molten state) of the PMMA may be between 2 and 15 cm 3/10 min measured at 23O 0 C under a load of 3.8 kg.
S'agissant de la couche adhésive, celle-ci permet de faire adhérer le film sur le substrat et est constituée de tout type d'adhésif permettant de faire adhérer le film sur le substrat. On peut utiliser pour la couche adhésive les colles uréthanes (colle PU), époxydes, acryliques ou polyesters qu'elles soient sous forme thermoplastique ou thermodurcissable. Avantageusement, on pourra utiliser une colle PU.As regards the adhesive layer, this makes it possible to adhere the film to the substrate and consists of any type of adhesive making it possible to adhere the film to the substrate. The urethane (PU-adhesive), epoxy, acrylic or polyester glues can be used for the adhesive layer, whether in thermoplastic or thermosetting form. Advantageously, it will be possible to use a PU glue.
S'agissant de l'absorbeur UV, il peut s'agir par exemple des additifs cités dans le brevet US 5256472. On utilise avantageusement les composés de type benzotriazoles, benzophénones, benzylidène malonates ou quinazolines. A titre d'exemple on peut utiliser les TINUVIN® 213 ou TINUVIN® 109 et de façon préférable le TINUVIN ® 234 de la société Ciba Speciality Chemicals.As regards the UV absorber, it may be, for example, the additives mentioned in US Pat. No. 5,256,472. Benzotriazole, benzophenone or benzylidene malonate or quinazoline type compounds are advantageously used. As an example we can use the ® TINUVIN 213 or TINUVIN ® 109 and preferably TINUVIN ® 234 from Ciba Specialty Chemicals.
S'agissant de l'agent dispersant, il a pour fonction d'aider à disperser la charge minérale. Il s'agit de préférence d'un polyalkylène glycol, c'est-à-dire d'un polymère renfermant des motifs oxyde d'alkylène (par ex. oxyde d'éthylène ou de propylène). De préférence, il s'agit du poly(oxyéthylène)glycol appelé communément polyéthylène glycol (PEG). Le polyalkylène glycol a de préférence une masse moyenne en nombre comprise entre 1000 et 10000 g/mol. Le polyalkylène glycol permet d'enrober les particules de la charge minérale et d'éviter un contact direct entre les particules et le PVDF.As for the dispersing agent, its function is to help disperse the mineral filler. It is preferably a polyalkylene glycol, i.e. a polymer containing alkylene oxide units (eg ethylene oxide or propylene oxide). Preferably, it is called poly (oxyethylene) glycol called commonly polyethylene glycol (PEG). The polyalkylene glycol preferably has a number average mass of between 1000 and 10000 g / mol. The polyalkylene glycol makes it possible to coat the particles of the mineral filler and to avoid direct contact between the particles and the PVDF.
Des exemples de PEG sont décrits dans les brevets US 5587429 et US 5015693. Ainsi, on peut citer : le polyéthylène glycol de formule H(OC2H4)nOH où n est un entier proche de 76, compris entre 70 et 80 ; le produit de formule H(OC2H4)d[OCH(CH3)CH2]e(OC2H4)fOH où d, e et f désignent des entiers avec d+f est proche de 108, compris entre 100 et 110, et e proche de 35, entre 30 et 40 ; le CARBOWAX® 3350 ayant une masse moléculaire moyenne en nombre d'environ 3500 g/mol ; le CARBOWAX® 8000 ayant une masse moléculaire moyenne en nombre d'environ 8000 g/mol ; le POLYGLYCOL® 8000 de CLARIANT ayant une masse moléculaire moyenne en nombre comprise entre 7000 et 9000 g/mol.Examples of PEG are described in patents US Pat. No. 5,587,429 and US Pat. No. 5,015,693. Thus, mention may be made of: polyethylene glycol of formula H (OC 2 H 4 ) n OH where n is an integer close to 76, between 70 and 80; the product of formula H (OC 2 H 4 ) d [OCH (CH 3 ) CH 2 ] e (OC 2 H 4 ) f OH where d, e and f denote integers with d + f is close to 108, between 100 and 110, and e close to 35, between 30 and 40; CARBOWAX ® 3350 having an average molecular weight of about 3500 g / mol; CARBOWAX ® 8000 having an average molecular weight of from about 8000 g / mol; polyglycol ® 8000 of Clariant with an average molecular weight ranging between 7000 and 9000 g / mol.
S'agissant de la charge minérale, il peut s'agir d'un oxyde métallique comme par exemple le dioxyde de titane (TiO2), la silice, le quartz, l'alumine, d'un carbonate comme par exemple le carbonate de calcium, le talc, le mica, la dolominte (CaCO 3 »MgCO3), la montmorillonite (aluminosilicate), BaSO4, ZrSiO4, Fe3O4.As regards the mineral filler, it may be a metal oxide such as, for example, titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), silica, quartz, alumina, a carbonate such as, for example, calcium, talc, mica, dolominte (CaCO 3 'MgCO 3), montmorillonite (aluminosilicate), BaSO 4, ZrSiO 4, Fe 3 O 4.
La charge minérale a une fonction d'opacifiant dans le domaine de l'UV/visible. L'action protectrice de la charge est complémentaire de celle de l'absorbeur UV. De plus, à la différence de l'absorbeur UV qui est une molécule organique, la charge minérale opacifiante conserve une action protectrice plus longtemps (elle n'est pas dégradée). Une charge de TiO2 est tout particulièrement préférée de ce point de vue-là.The mineral filler has an opacifying function in the UV / visible range. The protective action of the charge is complementary to that of the UV absorber. In addition, unlike the UV absorber which is an organic molecule, the opacifying mineral filler retains a protective action longer (it is not degraded). A charge of TiO 2 is particularly preferred from this point of view.
La charge minérale peut avoir une autre fonction. Par exemple, il peut s'agir d'une charge ignifugeante, comme par exemple l'oxyde d'antimoine (Sb2O3, Sb2O5), AI(OH)3, Mg(OH)2, la huntite (3MgCO3-CaCO3), l'hydromagnésite (3MgCO3* Mg(OH)2 #3H2O). Il peut s'agir aussi d'une charge conductrice de l'électricité (par exemple, du noir de carbone ou bien des nanotubes de carbone).The mineral filler may have another function. For example, it may be a flame retardant filler, such as, for example, antimony oxide (Sb 2 O 3 , Sb 2 O 5 ), Al (OH) 3 , Mg (OH) 2 , huntite ( 3MgCO 3 -CaCO 3 ), hydromagnesite (3MgCO 3 * Mg (OH) 2 # 3H 2 O). It can also be a conductive charge of electricity (for example, carbon black or carbon nanotubes).
La charge a une taille généralement comprise entre 0,05 μm et 1 mm. De préférence, la teneur en charge minérale dans la composition A ou C est comprise entre 0,1 et 30 parties (pour un total de 100 parties). Avantageusement, la teneur varie entre 10 et 25 parties, de préférence entre 10 et 20 parties. Il est préférable que la teneur en charge minérale soit d'au moins 10 parties pour observer une bonne efficacité de la charge opacifiante (et éventuellement ignifugeante). Il est préférable aussi que cette teneur ne dépasse pas 25 parties, voire 20 parties, pour ne pas dégrader les propriétés mécaniques de la couche qui comprend la charge, donc les propriétés mécaniques du film tout entier.The filler has a size generally between 0.05 μm and 1 mm. Preferably, the content of inorganic filler in composition A or C is between 0.1 and 30 parts (for a total of 100 parts). Advantageously, the content varies between 10 and 25 parts, preferably between 10 and 20 parts. It is preferable that the mineral filler content is at least 10 parts to observe a good effectiveness of the opacifying filler (and possibly flame retardant). It is also preferable that this content does not exceed 25 parts, or even 20 parts, so as not to degrade the mechanical properties of the layer which comprises the charge, and therefore the mechanical properties of the entire film.
S'agissant du film à base de PVDF, celui-ci se présente sous plusieurs formes.As regards the PVDF-based film, it comes in several forms.

Selon une 1ere forme, le film à base de PVDF comprend de 50 à 100 parties d'au moins un PVDF, de 0 à 50 parties d'au moins un PMMA, de 0 à 30 parties d'au moins une charge minérale et de 0 à 3 parties d'au moins un agent dispersant, le total faisant 100 parties (composition A). Le film adhère sur le substrat à l'aide d'une couche adhésive, qui peut être par exemple une couche d'une colle polyuréthane (PU). On a donc une structure multicouche comprenant dans l'ordre : le substrat / une couche adhésive / une couche de composition AAccording to a 1 st form, the PVDF-based film comprises 50 to 100 parts of at least one PVDF, from 0 to 50 parts of at least one of PMMA, 0 to 30 parts of at least one mineral filler and from 0 to 3 parts of at least one dispersing agent, the total being 100 parts (composition A).

Le film adhère sur le substrat soit à l'aide de la composition B soit à l'aide d'une couche adhésive disposée entre le substrat et la couche de composition B. On a donc une structure multicouche comprenant dans l'ordre : le substrat / éventuellement une couche adhésive / une couche de composition B / une couche de composition A 2nd form According to a 2nd form, the PVDF-based film comprises a layer of composition A and a layer of composition B comprising 5 to 40 parts of at least one PVDF, from 60 to 95 parts of at least one PMMA and 0 to 5 parts of at least one UV absorber, the total making 100 parts. The film adheres to the substrate either with the aid of the composition B or with the aid of an adhesive layer disposed between the substrate and the composition layer B. There is therefore a multilayer structure comprising in the following order: the substrate optionally an adhesive layer / a layer of composition B / a layer of composition A
De préférence, le PVDF de la composition B est un PVDF flexible. De préférence, la composition B ne contient aucun élastomère acrylique ni aucune particule noyau-écorce.Preferably, the PVDF of composition B is a flexible PVDF. Preferably, the composition B does not contain any acrylic elastomer or core-shell particle.

The film adheres to the substrate with the aid of an adhesive layer. There is therefore a multilayer structure comprising in the following order: the substrate / an adhesive layer / a layer of composition A / a layer of composition C

La composition C ne comprend comme polymère que du PVDF. La composition A comprend de 50 à 70 parties d'au moins un PVDF, de 10 à 40 parties d'au moins un PMMA et de 10 à 25 parties d'au moins une charge minérale (de préférence le TiO2), le total faisant 100 parties. Exemple: [60% PVDF flexible + 15% TiO2 + 25% PMMA] / PVDF homopolymère (voir exemple 3).Composition C comprises only PVDF as polymer. Composition A comprises from 50 to 70 parts of at least one PVDF, from 10 to 40 parts of minus one PMMA and from 10 to 25 parts of at least one mineral filler (preferably TiO 2 ), the total being 100 parts. Example: [60% flexible PVDF + 15% TiO 2 + 25% PMMA] / PVDF homopolymer (see Example 3).
De préférence, le PVDF de la composition C est un PVDF homopolymère. De préférence, le PVDF de la composition A est un PVDF flexible.Preferably, the PVDF of composition C is a PVDF homopolymer. Preferably, the PVDF of composition A is a flexible PVDF.
4ème forme4 th form
Selon une 4eme forme, le film à base de PVDF comprend une couche de composition C, une couche de composition A et une couche de composition B.According to a 4 th form, the PVDF-based film comprises a layer of composition C, a layer of composition A and a layer of composition B.
Le film adhère sur le substrat soit à l'aide de la composition B soit à l'aide d'une couche adhésive. On a donc une structure multicouche comprenant dans l'ordre : le substrat / éventuellement une couche adhésive / une couche de composition B / une couche de composition A / une couche de composition CThe film adheres to the substrate either with the composition B or with the aid of an adhesive layer. Thus, there is a multilayer structure comprising in the following order: the substrate / optionally an adhesive layer / a layer of composition B / a layer of composition A / a layer of composition C

La composition C ne comprend comme polymère que le PVDF. La composition B comprend de 5 à 40 parties d'au moins un PVDF, de 60 à 95 parties d'au moins un PMMA et de 0 à 5 parties d'au moins un absorbeur UV, le total faisant 100 parties. La composition A comprend de 50 à 70 parties d'au moins un PVDF, de 10 à 40 parties d'au moins un PMMA et de 10 à 25 parties d'au moins une charge minérale (de préférence le TiO2), le total faisant 100 parties.Composition C comprises only polymer as PVDF. Composition B comprises from 5 to 40 parts of at least one PVDF, from 60 to 95 parts of at least one PMMA and from 0 to 5 parts of at least one UV absorber, the total being 100 parts. Composition A comprises from 50 to 70 parts of at least one PVDF, from 10 to 40 parts of at least one PMMA and from 10 to 25 parts of at least one mineral filler (preferably TiO 2 ), the total doing 100 parts.
De préférence, le PVDF de la composition C est un PVDF homopolymère. De préférence, le PVDF de la composition A et/ou B est un PVDF flexible.Preferably, the PVDF of composition C is a PVDF homopolymer. Preferably, the PVDF of composition A and / or B is a flexible PVDF.
Dans les 3eme et 4eme formes, la couche de composition C, qui est disposée contre la couche de composition A, est donc la couche la plus « externe ». Pour toutes les formes, la composition A et/ou B ne contient de préférence aucun élastomère acrylique ni aucune particule noyau-écorce. En effet, ceci peut induire un blanchiment du film lorsque ce dernier est soumis à une déformation importante, ce qui est le cas par exemple lors de la fabrication du film soit lors de la mise en place du film sur le substrat (par exemple lors de l'emboutissage d'une feuille de métal protégée par le film).In the 3 rd and 4 th forms, the layer of composition C, which is arranged against the layer of composition A, is the most "outer" layer. For all forms, composition A and / or B preferably does not contain any acrylic elastomer or core-shell particle. Indeed, this can induce a bleaching of the film when the latter is subjected to deformation important, which is the case for example during the manufacture of the film is during the introduction of the film on the substrate (for example during the stamping of a sheet of metal protected by the film).
Le film à base de PVDF qui protège le substrat comprend donc dans l'ordre à partir du substrat une couche de composition B éventuelle, une couche de composition A, une couche de composition C éventuelle, le film adhérant sur le substrat par une couche adhésive et si la couche de composition B est présente, la couche adhésive est optionnelle. Pour chacune des formes de l'invention, l'épaisseur de la couche de composition A est de préférence comprise entre 5 et 50 μm, de préférence entre 5 et 15 μm. L'épaisseur de la couche de composition B est de préférence comprise entre 5 et 45 μm, de préférence entre 5 et 15 μm. L'épaisseur de la couche de composition C est de préférence comprise entre 2 et 30 μm, de préférence entre 2 et 15 μm.The PVDF-based film which protects the substrate therefore comprises, in order from the substrate, a layer of optional composition B, a layer of composition A, a layer of composition C, the film adhering to the substrate by an adhesive layer and if the composition layer B is present, the adhesive layer is optional. For each of the forms of the invention, the thickness of the composition layer A is preferably between 5 and 50 μm, preferably between 5 and 15 μm. The thickness of the layer of composition B is preferably between 5 and 45 microns, preferably between 5 and 15 microns. The thickness of the layer of composition C is preferably between 2 and 30 microns, preferably between 2 and 15 microns.
Fabrication des films à base de PVDFManufacture of PVDF-based films
Le film à base de PVDF est de préférence fabriqué par la technique de coextrusion, mais il est également possible d'utiliser une technique de mise en œuvre par voie solvant ou bien en utilisant la technique de plaxage.The PVDF film is preferably manufactured by the coextrusion technique, but it is also possible to use a solvent processing technique or by using the plaxing technique.
Le film à base de PVDF peut aussi être fabriqué par coextrusion-soufflage de gaine (« blown film » en Anglais). Cette technique consiste à extruder, généralement de bas en haut, un polymère thermoplastique à travers une filière annulaire, l'extrudat est simultanément tiré longitudinalement par un dispositif de tirage, habituellement en rouleaux, et gonflé par un volume d'air constant emprisonné entre la filière, le système de tirage et la paroi de la gaine. La gaine gonflée, encore appelée « bulle », est refroidie généralement par un anneau de soufflage d'air à la sortie de la filière. La bulle mise à plat est enroulée, soit sous forme de gaine, soit après découpe en deux films séparés. Dans EP 0278804 A1 , on coextrude un polymère fluide semi-cristallin avec une résine thermoplastique qui est incompatible de façon telle qu'après refroidissement et mise à plat de la bulle, on récupère séparément les deux films extrudés par des moyens classiques, tel que par enroulement distinct des films séparés. Dans l'exemple unique, une bulle est constituée d'un film de 25 μm de PVDF coextrudé avec un film de 60 μm de polyéthylène (PE). Dans la description, il est précisé que l'épaisseur du film de PE doit être de préférence 1 à 5 fois l'épaisseur du film de polymère semi-cristallin. Il est écrit aussi qu'il n'est pas exclu de pouvoir coextruder plus de deux films, mais rien n'est précisé sur la nature exacte des films en question. La demande internationale WO 03/039840 décrit un procédé de fabrication d'un film fluoré qui utilise aussi un polymère incompatible, qui peut être un PE, un polystyrène choc, un PVC plastifié et de préférence, un PE basse densité.The PVDF-based film can also be manufactured by coextrusion-blowing film ("blown film"). This technique consists in extruding, generally from bottom to top, a thermoplastic polymer through an annular die, the extrudate is simultaneously drawn longitudinally by a drawing device, usually in rolls, and inflated by a constant volume of air trapped between the die, the draw system and the wall of the sheath. The inflated sheath, also called "bubble", is generally cooled by an air blowing ring at the exit of the die. The flat bubble is rolled up, either in the form of a sheath or after cutting into two separate films. In EP 0278804 A1, a semicrystalline fluid polymer is coextruded with a thermoplastic resin which is incompatible in such a way that after cooling and flattening of the bubble, the two extruded films are recovered separately from each other. conventional means, such as by separate winding separate films. In the single example, a bubble consists of a film of 25 microns of PVDF coextruded with a film of 60 microns of polyethylene (PE). In the description, it is specified that the thickness of the PE film should preferably be 1 to 5 times the thickness of the semi-crystalline polymer film. It is also written that it is not excluded to coextrude more than two films, but nothing is specified on the exact nature of the films in question. International application WO 03/039840 discloses a process for manufacturing a fluorinated film which also uses an incompatible polymer, which may be a PE, a high impact polystyrene, a plasticized PVC and preferably a low density PE.
Le procédé de fabrication du film par le procédé de coextrusion-soufflage à base de PVDF consiste à coextruder : a) les différentes couches du film à base de PVDF (de composition A, B, C) ; b) une couche L1 d'une polyoléfine adjacente à la couche composition A ou à la couche de composition C ; c) éventuellement une autre couche L2 d'une polyoléfine adjacente à l'ensemble des couches extrudées en a) et b), du côté opposé à la couche extrudée en b), et après refroidissement du coextrudat, à récupérer, par séparation de la (ou des) couche(s) de polyoléfine, le film à base de PVDF.The process for manufacturing the film by the PVDF coextrusion-blow molding process consists of coextruding: a) the various layers of the PVDF-based film (of composition A, B, C); b) a layer L1 of a polyolefin adjacent to the composition layer A or the composition layer C; c) optionally another layer L2 of a polyolefin adjacent to all the extruded layers in a) and b), on the opposite side to the extruded layer in b), and after cooling the coextrudate, to recover, by separation of the (or) polyolefin layer (s), the PVDF-based film.
La polyoléfine (appelée aussi « liner ») utilisée en b) peut être identique ou différente de celle utilisée en c).The polyolefin (also called "liner") used in b) may be the same or different from that used in c).
[Utilisations du film][Uses of the film]
On décrit maintenant plus en détails les utilisations du film à base de PVDF.The uses of the PVDF-based film are now described in more detail.
comme film protecteur pour module photovoltaïque Les modules photovoltaïques peuvent être protégés à l'arrière par le film à base de PVDF. Un module photovoltaïque permet de convertir l'énergie lumineuse en courant électrique. Généralement, un module photovoltaïque comprend des cellules photovoltaïques montées en série et reliées entres elles par des moyens de connection électrique. Les cellules photovoltaïques sont généralement mono jonction fabriquées à base de silicium multi-cristallin dopé "P" avec du bore lors de la fusion du silicium et dopées "N" avec du phosphore sur leur surface éclairée. Ces cellules sont mises en place dans un empilage laminé. L'empilage laminé peut être constitué d'EVA (copolymère éthylène- acétate de vinyle) enrobant les cellules photovoltaïques pour protéger le silicium de l'oxydation et de l'humidité. L'empilage est imbriqué entre une plaque de verre qui sert de support d'un côté et il est protégé par un film de l'autre côté. Le module photovoltaïque est ainsi protégé contre le vieillissement (UV, brouillard salin,...), contre les rayures, l'humidité ou la vapeur d'eauas protective film for photovoltaic module Photovoltaic modules can be protected at the rear by the PVDF-based film. A photovoltaic module makes it possible to convert light energy into electric current. Generally, a photovoltaic module comprises photovoltaic cells mounted in series and connected together by means of electrical connection. Photovoltaic cells are generally mono junction fabricated based on multi-crystalline silicon doped "P" with boron during the melting of silicon and doped "N" with phosphorus on their illuminated surface. These cells are put in place in a laminated stack. The laminated stack may consist of EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) coating photovoltaic cells to protect the silicon from oxidation and moisture. The stack is nested between a glass plate that serves as a support on one side and is protected by a film on the other side. The photovoltaic module is thus protected against aging (UV, salt spray, etc.) against scratches, moisture or water vapor
Le module est généralement protégé par une structure multicouche commercialisée sous la marque AKASOL® ou ICOSOLAR® qui est une association d'un film de TEDLAR® (polyfluorure de vinyle ou PVF) et d'une feuille de PET (polyéthylène téréphtalate). La Demanderesse a constaté qu'il est possible d'utiliser avantageusement un film à base de PVDF tel que défini précédemment à la place du film de TEDLAR®. Un avantage est notamment que le PVDF présente une meilleure résistance mécanique et une température de fusion plus élevée (tenue thermique plus élevée) que le PVF. La structure multicouche comprend donc une feuille de PET accolée à au moins un film à base de PVDF tel que défini précédemment et se présente sous la forme : un film à base de PVDF F1 / une feuille de PET ou sous la forme : un film à base de PVDF F1 / une feuille de PET / un film à base de PVDF F2 Sous cette 2eme forme, les deux films F1 et F2 sont tels que définis précédemment. Ils peuvent être identiques ou différents, c'est-à-dire être indépendamment l'un de l'autre selon l'une des 4 formes de l'invention décrites précédemment. Chacun des deux films F1 ou F2 adhère sur la feuille de PET à l'aide d'une couche de composition B ou bien à l'aide d'une couche adhésive.The module is generally protected by a multilayer structure sold under the brand or ICOSOLAR AKASOL ® ® which is an association of a film of TEDLAR ® (polyvinyl fluoride or PVF) and a PET film (polyethylene terephthalate). We have found that it is possible to advantageously use a PVDF-based film as defined above in place of the film TEDLAR ®. One advantage is that the PVDF has a better mechanical strength and a higher melting temperature (higher thermal resistance) than the PVF. The multilayer structure therefore comprises a PET sheet bonded to at least one PVDF-based film as defined above and is in the form of: a film based on PVDF F1 / a PET film or in the form: a film with PVDF-based F1 / foil PET / PVDF-based film F2 Under this 2nd form, the two movies F1 and F2 are as defined above. They may be identical or different, that is to say they may be independently of one another according to one of the four forms of the invention described. previously. Each of the two films F1 or F2 adheres to the PET sheet using a layer of composition B or using an adhesive layer.
La structure multicouche comprend : • un film à base de PVDF F1 accolé à une feuille de PET ou de PEN ou bienThe multilayer structure comprises: a film based on PVDF F1 attached to a sheet of PET or PEN or else
• un film à base de PVDF F1 accolé à une feuille de PET ou de PEN elle-même accolée à un film à base de PVDF F2, le film F1 et/ou F2 comprenant (dans l'ordre en partant de la feuille de PET ou de PEN) :A film based on PVDF F1 attached to a sheet of PET or PEN itself contiguous to a film based on PVDF F2, the film F1 and / or F2 comprising (in order starting from the PET sheet) or PEN):
• éventuellement une couche de composition B comprenant de 5 à 40 parties d'au moins un PVDF, de 60 à 95 parties d'au moins un PMMA et de 0 à 5 parties d'au moins un absorbeur UV, le total faisant 100 parties ; • une couche de composition A, comprenant de 50 à 100 parties d'au moins un PVDF, de 0 à 50 parties d'au moins un PMMA, de 0 à 30 parties d'au moins une charge minérale et de 0 à 3 parties d'au moins un agent dispersant, le total faisant 100 parties ;Optionally a composition layer B comprising from 5 to 40 parts of at least one PVDF, from 60 to 95 parts of at least one PMMA and from 0 to 5 parts of at least one UV absorber, the total being 100 parts ; A layer of composition A comprising from 50 to 100 parts of at least one PVDF, from 0 to 50 parts of at least one PMMA, from 0 to 30 parts of at least one mineral filler and from 0 to 3 parts at least one dispersing agent, the total being 100 parts;
• éventuellement une couche de composition C comprenant de 80 à 100 parties d'au moins un PVDF, de 0 à 20 parties d'au moins un PMMA, de 0 à 30 parties d'au moins une charge minérale et de 0 à 3 parties d'au moins un agent dispersant, le total faisant 100 parties ; tel :Optionally a layer of composition C comprising from 80 to 100 parts of at least one PVDF, from 0 to 20 parts of at least one PMMA, from 0 to 30 parts of at least one mineral filler and from 0 to 3 parts at least one dispersing agent, the total being 100 parts; tel:
• qu'une couche adhésive est disposée entre la feuille de PET ou de PEN et le film F1 et/ou F2 ;An adhesive layer is placed between the PET or PEN film and the F1 and / or F2 film;
• cette couche adhésive étant optionnelle si la couche de composition B est présente.This adhesive layer being optional if the composition layer B is present.
De préférence, la couche adhésive ne comprend aucune une polyoléfine fonctionnalisée par un acide carboxylique ou un anhydride insaturé ou bien un homo- ou copolymère comprenant comme monomère(s) l'acide acrylique, les acrylates et acrylates d'alkyle éventuellement modifié par un acide ou anhydride insaturé. De préférence aussi, les compositions A et/ou B ne contiennent aucun élastomère acrylique ni aucune particule noyau-écorce.Preferably, the adhesive layer does not comprise any polyolefin functionalized with a carboxylic acid or an unsaturated anhydride or else a homo- or copolymer comprising, as monomer (s), acrylic acid, alkyl acrylates and acrylates optionally modified with an acid. or anhydride unsaturated. Also preferably, compositions A and / or B contain no acrylic elastomer or core-shell particle.
On a donc dans l'ordre les successions suivantes : comp. C évent. / comp. A / comp. B évent. / couche adhésive / PET ou comp. C évent. / comp. A / comp. B évent. / couche adhésive / PET / couche adhésive / comp. B évent. / comp. A / comp. C évent. La couche adhésive est optionnelle si la couche de composition B est présente. Si on utilise une couche adhésive, une colle PU est préférée.We have, in this order, the following successions: comp. C vent. / comp. A / comp. B vent. / adhesive layer / PET or comp. C vent. / comp. A / comp. B vent. / adhesive layer / PET / adhesive layer / comp. B vent. / comp. A / comp. C vent. The adhesive layer is optional if the composition layer B is present. If an adhesive layer is used, a PU adhesive is preferred.
La structure multicouche peut être fabriquée par compression à chaud des différents éléments (c'est-à-dire la feuille de PET, le film(s) à base de PVDF, ...). On peut aussi utiliser la technique de lamination qui consiste à laminer en continu le(s) film(s) à base de PVDF (préalablement sous forme de bobine) avec la feuille de PET sur laquelle on a déposé éventuellement l'adhésif. Un exemple de procédé de lamination sous vide permettant d'appliquer une structure de type AKASOL® ou ICOSOLAR® sur un module photovoltaïque est décrit dans US 5593532 et peut s'appliquer à la structure multicouche de l'invention. Généralement, la structure est donc fabriquée en associant le(s) film(s) à base de PVDF déjà formé(s) avec la feuille de PET. C'est pourquoi on préfère utiliser un adhésif que l'on dépose à l'état liquide du type thermodurcissable plutôt qu'un thermoplastique qui nécessite d'avoir recours à la coextrusion. C'est pourquoi on exclut que la couche adhésive comprenne une polyoléfine fonctionnalisée par un acide carboxylique ou un anhydride insaturé ou bien un homo- ou copolymère comprenant comme monomère(s) l'acide acrylique, les acrylates et acrylates d'alkyle éventuellement modifié par un acide ou anhydride insaturé.The multilayer structure can be manufactured by hot compression of the various elements (that is to say the PET sheet, the film (s) based on PVDF, ...). It is also possible to use the lamination technique which consists of continuously rolling the PVDF-based film (s) (previously in the form of a coil) with the PET film on which the adhesive was optionally deposited. An example of vacuum lamination process for applying a structure of AKASOL ® or ICOSOLAR ® type on a photovoltaic module is described in US Pat. No. 5,593,532 and can be applied to the multilayer structure of the invention. Generally, the structure is manufactured by combining the PVDF-based film (s) already formed with the PET film. Therefore, it is preferred to use a thermosetting type liquid adhesive rather than a thermoplastic which requires coextrusion. Therefore, it is excluded that the adhesive layer comprises a polyolefin functionalized with a carboxylic acid or an unsaturated anhydride or a homo- or copolymer comprising, as monomer (s), acrylic acid, alkyl acrylates and acrylates optionally modified with an unsaturated acid or anhydride.
On peut aussi utiliser à la place du PET du PEN (polyéthylène naphtalate) qui présente l'avantage d'avoir une Tg plus élevée que celle du PET. Le PEN possède une excellente résistance UV mais les films de PEN sont cassants (brittle) et ne sont pas barrière à l'humidité. Les figures 1 et 2 représentent schématiquement des exemples d'un module photovoltaïque 2 protégé. La référence 3 sur la figure 1 représente soit un film à base de PVDF soit une structure multicouche associant une feuille de PET ou de PEN à un ou deux films à base de PVDF.PET (polyethylene naphthalate), which has the advantage of having a higher T g than PET, can also be used instead. PEN has excellent UV resistance but PEN films are brittle and are not moisture barrier. Figures 1 and 2 show schematically examples of a photovoltaic module 2 protected. Reference 3 in FIG. 1 represents either a PVDF-based film or a multilayer structure associating a sheet of PET or PEN with one or two PVDF-based films.
L'invention se rapporte aussi au module photovoltaïque protégé par le film à base de PVDF ou bien par la structure multicouche. Dans le cas du film à base de PVDF, on a donc l'ordre suivant : (le module) / couche adhésive / comp. B évent. / comp. A / comp. C évent., la couche adhésive étant optionnelle si la couche de composition B est présente.The invention also relates to the photovoltaic module protected by the PVDF-based film or by the multilayer structure. In the case of the PVDF-based film, the following order is therefore: (the module) / adhesive layer / comp. B vent. / comp. A / comp. C vent., The adhesive layer being optional if the composition layer B is present.
et dans le cas de la structure multicouche, on a l'ordre suivant :and in the case of the multilayer structure, there is the following order:
(le module) / comp. C évent. / comp. A / comp. B évent. / couche adhésive / PET ou (le module) / comp. C évent. / comp. A / comp. B évent. / couche adhésive /(the module) / comp. C vent. / comp. A / comp. B vent. / adhesive layer / PET or (module) / comp. C vent. / comp. A / comp. B vent. / adhesive layer /
PET / couche adhésive / comp. B évent. / comp. A / comp. C évent. la couche adhésive étant optionnelle si la couche de composition B est présente.PET / adhesive layer / comp. B vent. / comp. A / comp. C vent. the adhesive layer being optional if the composition layer B is present.
L'invention n'est cependant pas limitée au module photovoltaïque tel qu'il a été décrit plus haut ou sur la figure 2. On trouvera ainsi d'autres exemples de modules photovoltaïques dans FR 2863775 A1 (voir notamment la figure 1 ), US 6369316 B1, US 2004/0229394 A1 , US 2005/0172997 A1 , US 2005/0268961 A1.The invention is however not limited to the photovoltaic module as described above or in FIG. 2. Further examples of photovoltaic modules will thus be found in FR 2863775 A1 (see in particular FIG. 1), US 6369316 B1, US 2004/0229394 A1, US 2005/0172997 A1, US 2005/0268961 A1.
comme film protecteur de substrats souplesas a protective film for flexible substrates
Le film à base de PVDF peut servir à protéger un substrat souple comme par exemple un textile technique qui peut être tissé ou non tissé. Il peut s'agir d'un tissu en PVC, en polyester ou en polyamide, un tissu de verre, un mat de verre, un tissu en aramide ou en Kevlar,.... Une bâche en PVC constitue un exemple de substrat souple en PVC. Le film de l'invention peut être par exemple appliqué sur le tissu technique à l'aide de la technique de lamination ou par enduction.The PVDF-based film can be used to protect a flexible substrate such as a technical textile that can be woven or non-woven. It may be a fabric made of PVC, polyester or polyamide, a glass fabric, a glass mat, a fabric of aramid or Kevlar, .... A PVC tarpaulin is an example of a flexible substrate in PVC. The film of the invention may be for example applied to the technical fabric using the lamination technique or by coating.
L'invention se rapporte aussi au textile technique protégé par le film à base de PVDF. On a donc la succession suivante : (le textile technique) / couche adhésive / comp. B évent. / comp. A / comp. C évent., la couche adhésive étant optionnelle si la couche de composition B est présente.The invention also relates to the technical textile protected by the film based on PVDF. We therefore have the following succession: (the technical textile) / adhesive layer / comp. B vent. / comp. A / comp. C vent., The adhesive layer being optional if the composition layer B is present.
comme film protecteur d'une feuille de métal Le film à base de PVDF peut être colaminé sur un substrat en métal qui peut être par exemple l'acier, le cuivre ou l'aluminium. De préférence, il s'agit d'une feuille métallique, de préférence en acier. De préférence, l'acier est galvanisé, et est revêtu ou non d'un primaire. L'acier peut par exemple être traité par le Zincrox ou revêtu par le primaire B1236 acrylique/vinylique, le primaire B710 époxy ou le primaire polyester mélamine CN4118. Le film à base de PVDF est suffisamment flexible pour que l'ensemble acier / film puisse ensuite subir une déformation importante. Par exemple, l'ensemble peut être embouti.As a protective film of a metal sheet The PVDF-based film can be colaminated on a metal substrate which can be for example steel, copper or aluminum. Preferably, it is a metal sheet, preferably steel. Preferably, the steel is galvanized, and is coated or not with a primer. For example, the steel can be treated with Zincrox or coated with B1236 acrylic / vinyl primer, B710 epoxy primer or CN4118 melamine polyester primer. The PVDF-based film is sufficiently flexible so that the steel / film assembly can then undergo significant deformation. For example, the set can be stamped.
La figure 3 représente un exemple de pièce en acier 10 protégée par le film à base de PVDF, référencé 10. La pièce représente un godet métallique (par exemple en acier) obtenu par emboutissage d'une feuille de métal sur laquelle a été colaminé le film.FIG. 3 represents an example of a piece of steel 10 protected by the PVDF-based film, referenced 10. The part represents a metal cup (for example made of steel) obtained by stamping a sheet of metal on which was colaminated. movie.
L'invention se rapporte aussi au substrat en métal protégé par le film à base de PVDF. On a donc la succession suivante : (le métal) / primaire évent. / couche adhésive / comp. B évent. / comp. A / comp. C évent., la couche adhésive étant optionnelle si la couche de composition B est présente. [Exemples]The invention also relates to the metal substrate protected by the PVDF-based film. We thus have the following succession: (the metal) / primary vent. / adhesive layer / comp. B vent. / comp. A / comp. C vent., The adhesive layer being optional if the composition layer B is present.
