Definitions

• C6 fluorinated water repellent refers to a fluorinated water repellent that comprises a copolymer comprising a perfluoroalkyl group with six or less carbon atoms.
• Patent Literature 1 discloses a water-oil-repellent fabric using a C6 fluorinated water repellent and a process for producing the same.
• the C6 fluorinated water repellent has a relatively low water-oil-repellency, compared with the conventional C8 fluorinated water repellent. If the C6 fluorinated water repellent is used to treat a fiber fabric only for water-oil-repellency, the fabric obtains, as initial performance, similar water-oil-repellency to a fabric using the C8 fluorinated water repellent. However, when the fiber fabric is subsequently coated with a synthetic resin solution, the synthetic resin solution penetrates the fiber fabric. It is presumed that this phenomenon occurs because a fabric treated with a C6 fluorinated water repellent has a lower dynamic oil-repellency offered by coating, compared with a fabric treated with a C8 fluorinated water repellent. Consequently, it is difficult to form a continuous resin film on a surface of the fiber fabric, which causes the problem that the necessary performance (hydraulic resistance, moisture permeability, wind proof property, and the like) is not provided.
• the present disclosure has been developed in view of these problems, and directed to provide a stretchable coated fabric that exerts no influence on the environment and that is highly moisture permeable, waterproof, and windproof, and a process for producing the same.
• a stretchable coated fabric is a stretchable coated fabric produced by treating a stretchable fiber fabric for water repellency with a fluorinated water repellent that comprises a copolymer comprising a perfluoroalkyl group with six or less carbon atoms and applying a synthetic resin solution to at least one side of the stretchable fiber fabric to form a resin coating film that comprises a synthetic resin, wherein the stretchable fiber fabric treated for water repellency with the fluorinated water repellent has a toluene repellency of 100 seconds or longer, and the synthetic resin solution has a thixotropic index at 23°C in a range from 1.4 to 2.0, and wherein the synthetic resin has a 100% modulus of 5 kgf/cm 2 or greater.
• the synthetic resin is at least one selected from acrylic resins, urethane resins, and silicone resins.
• the stretchable fiber fabric is a fabric that primarily comprises polyamide fibers and/or polyester fibers having a total fineness of 84 dtex or less, and that has a basis weight of 200 g/m 2 or less, a warp elongation (JIS L1096 A Method) at a load of 0.5 kgf of 45% or less, and a warp elongation at a load of 2.0 kgf of 75% or less.
• JIS L1096 A Method JIS L1096 A Method
• a process for producing a stretchable coated fabric comprises a step of preparing a stretchable fiber fabric treated for water repellency with a fluorinated water repellent that comprises a copolymer comprising a perfluoroalkyl group with six or less carbon atoms, and a step of applying a solution of a synthetic resin in a solvent to at least one side of the stretchable fiber fabric, wherein the fluorinated water repellent is used to impart a toluene repellency of 100 seconds or longer to the stretchable fabric, and the synthetic resin solution has a thixotropic index at 23°C in a range from 1.4 to 2.0, and wherein the synthetic resin has a 100% modulus of 5 kgf/cm 2 or greater.
• the synthetic resin is at least one selected from acrylic resins, urethane resins, and silicone resins.
• the stretchable coated fabric according to the present disclosure is treated for water repellency with a fluorinated water repellent that comprises a copolymer comprising a perfluoroalkyl group with six or less carbon atoms (C6 fluorinated water repellent).
• a fluorinated water repellent that comprises a copolymer comprising a perfluoroalkyl group with six or less carbon atoms (C6 fluorinated water repellent).
• the stretchable fiber fabric treated for water repellency with a C6 fluorinated water repellent has a toluene repellency of 100 seconds or longer;
• the synthetic resin solution applied to at least one side of the stretchable fiber fabric has a thixotropic index at 23°C in a range from 1.4 to 2.0; and the synthetic resin has a 100% modulus of 5 kgf/cm 2 or greater. This prevents the synthetic resin from leaking to the back side, and allows formation of a resin coating film that has good film forming properties. Consequently, a stretchable coated fabric that has excellent moisture permeability, excellent waterproofness, and excellent windproof property can be provided.
• the stretchable coated fabric according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail below.
• the stretchable coated fabric according to the embodiment is produced by treating a stretchable fiber fabric for water repellency with a C6 fluorinated water repellent and then applying a synthetic resin to at least one side of the stretchable fiber fabric.
• the stretchable fiber fabric used in the embodiment includes, for example, woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, nonwoven fabrics, and the like. Among them, knitted fabrics are preferred in terms of stretchablity.
• Fiber materials include, for example, natural fibers such as cotton, hemp, wool, and silk, regenerated fibers such as rayon and cupra, semisynthetic fibers such as acetate and triacetate, and synthetic fibers such as polyamides (nylon 6, nylon 66, and the like), polyesters (polyethylene terephthalate, polytrimethylene terephthalate, and the like), polyurethanes, and polyaclylics. Two or more of these materials may be used in combination.
• the yarns that constitute the stretchable fiber fabric have a total fineness of 84 dtex (decitex) or less. If the yarns used in the embodiment have a total fineness of greater than 84 dtex, the yarns produce a hard hand feeling.
• the stretchable fiber fabric is, for example, a knitted fabric, such yarns produce large irregularities in the surface of the stretchable fiber fabric. Thus, the film-forming properties are reduced. As a result, the fabric may not provide physical properties such as hydraulic resistance and air permeability that are required after coating.
• a water repellent used in the embodiment is a fluorinated water repellent that comprises a copolymer comprising a perfluoroalkyl group with six or less carbon atoms (C6 fluorinated water repellent), because such repellent can impart high water repellency and is environmentally and biologically friendly.
• the C6 fluorinated water repellent is preferably contained in an amount of 80-100% based on the overall water repellents used, and a paraffin-based water repellent and/or a silicone-based water repellent as another water-repellent may be contained in an amount of less than 20%.
• the C6 fluorinated water repellent used in the present disclosure may be individually used, or two or more thereof may be used in combination, as long as performance requirements such as water repellency and oil-repellency are met depending on usage.
• the synthetic resin solution used in the embodiment should have a thixotropic index at 23°C in a range from 1.4 to 2.0. More preferably, the thixotropic index is in a range from 1.45 to 1.7.
• the term thixotropic index refers to a viscosity at a low rotation speed divided by a viscosity at a high rotation speed, as determined with a rotary viscometer at constant temperature. If the thixotropic index is less than 1.4, the synthetic resin that has been coated onto the fiber fabric to a desired thickness is flowable until the resin cures, and thus the fabric is unable to retain the coating film. If the thixotropic index is more than 2.0, the viscosity significantly changes relative to shear stress during coating, and thus there is difficulty in controlling the coating form.
• the synthetic resin solution preferably has a viscosity at 23°C in a range from 8000 to 25000 mPa ⁇ s, and more preferably in a range from 10000 to 20000 mPa ⁇ s. If the viscosity at 23°C is less than 8000 mPa ⁇ s, the synthetic resin may deeply penetrate the fiber fabric and produce a hard hand feeling. And the synthetic resin solution may leak through the fiber fabric to the other side. On the other hand, if the viscosity at 23°C is more than 25000 mPa ⁇ s, streaks and air bubbles are prone to be formed during coating. As a result, it becomes difficult to form a resin film, and thus sufficient hydraulic resistance and sufficient windproof property may not be provided.
• the synthetic resin used in the present disclosure has a 100% modulus of 5 kgf/cm 2 or greater. If the synthetic resin used has a 100% modulus of less than 5 kgf/cm 2 , it becomes difficult to form a continuous film during coating.
