Definitions
- the invention relates to a composite film, in particular a surface protection film comprising at least one lacquer layer, a polymer film layer and an adhesive layer, wherein the lacquer layer is bonded to a major surface of the polymer film layer and the adhesive layer is bonded to the opposite major surface of the polymer film layer such that the polymer film layer between the lacquer layer and the adhesive layer is embedded, as well as the use of this composite film.
- Surface protection films are often built up in multiple layers, especially in the automotive sector; for example, to give the surface a higher gloss or improved abrasion resistance.
- EP 1 874 541 B1 describes the production of the cover layer from an aqueous or solvent-based polyurethane.
- This polyurethane is crosslinked with crosslinkers such as aziridine or isocyanate. It is problematic that aziridine and isocyanate are harmful substances.
- a radiation-crosslinkable paint having a carrier film and a cover layer of a radiation-crosslinkable paint, in particular a radiation-crosslinkable paint based on polyfunctional (meth) acrylates, for example urethane acrylates.
- Radiation-curable coating formulations which are used for coating plastic films are also described in a number of other publications. Typically, these formulations have in common that at least one kind of polyfunctional (meth) acrylate is present in the formulation.
- suitable radiation initiated in the case of UV curing by photoinitiators, these (meth) acrylated monomers, oligomers or polymers are excited to polymerize, resulting in a close-meshed network.
- the formulations may contain various other types of ingredients.
- inorganic particles have been described as being advantageously used with regard to higher paint hardnesses. Examples of radiation-curable coating formulations are disclosed in US Pat. No. 4,557,980 to Martin Processing Inc., US Pat. No.
- WO 92/22619 A1 discloses a surface protection film in the form of a stick-on film, which can be used as a protective layer in outdoor applications.
- the film comprises an adhesive layer, a polymer film and a transparent coating.
- the adhesive composition is preferably a pressure-sensitive adhesive which is tacky at room temperature.
- the polymer film is preferably made of a polyurethane elastomer and may be transparent or contain dyes.
- the adhesive film may comprise an aliphatic polyurethane material.
- the transparent coating consists of a transparent polyurethane composition. Including polyurethane acrylates are taken, especially those based on polyether.
- Such paint formulations to be coated and cured may contain at least one kind of inorganic oxides in particulate form.
- the surface of these particles is functionalized in such a way that the particles not only form a stable suspension in the organic matrix formed by the paint resin mixture, but can also be chemically linked to the organic network that forms during the curing process. It is particularly advantageous if such a surface functionalization takes place by reaction of the particles with coupling reagents such as, in particular, unsaturated silanes or titanates. See, for example, L.N. Lewis, D. Katsamberis, J. Appl. Polym. Be.
- Such formulations may contain amorphous silicas or corundum whose average particle diameter is typically below 100 nm. Particle contents are, for example, up to 50% by weight or up to 30% by weight.
- One advantage of radiation-curable coating formulations lies in the fact that solvents can be dispensed with completely.
- Self-curing lacquers based on acrylate are known from DE 696 15 819 T2. These are made of high molecular weight polyurethane acrylates which are solid at room temperature and can only be processed as a solvent-based coating formulation. It has been found that these very flexible protective coatings have the disadvantage that they are less smooth and therefore hold the dirt deposited on them, which can accelerate the surface degradation of the protective layer during use.
- the lacquer layer is an acrylate lacquer layer made from a lacquer formulation comprising at least one compound containing at least two (eth) acrylate functions;
- the lacquer layer at room temperature has a surface hardness (HM 0.300 / 20.0 / 5.0) of from 2.0 to 3.5 N / mm 2 , preferably from 2.0 to 3 N / mm 2 , in particular from 2.0 to 2.5 N / mm 2 , and
- the polymer film layer at room temperature has a surface hardness (HM 0.300 / 20.0 / 5.0) of from 2.0 to 4.0 N / mm 2 , preferably from 2.0 to 3 N / mm 2 , in particular from 2.0 to 2.5 N / mm 2 , and an elastic recovery after the
- the solution is based on the idea to provide an improved, in particular self-healing surface protection film by combining a carrier film with selected hardness and elasticity with a surface protective lacquer with specific viscoelastic properties with high wear resistance.
- the elastic properties of the film act synergistically with the self-healing properties of the paint and surprisingly lead to a wear resistance of the protective film, which can reach neither paint nor film alone.
- the lacquer is composed of specific acrylate-functional resins and preferably contains nanoparticles. These coating formulations are isocyanate-free and can be adjusted to the required for surface protection films balanced property profile with regard to elasticity and hardness. In addition, they have good weathering stability.

- difunctional aliphatic (meth) acrylates such as 1,4-butanediol di (meth)
- aliphatic ( ethane (meth) acrylates Preference is given to aliphatic ( ethane (meth) acrylates, in particular those having two (meth) acrylate functions, since these are stable to weathering and yellowing and their use promotes self-healing properties
- a polyester polyurethane (meth) acrylate is very particularly preferred.
- the compound having at least two (meth) acrylate functions preferably has a number-average molecular weight M n of more than 1000 g / mol, particularly preferably more than 2000 g / mol. As a result, sufficient elasticity of the layer is advantageously produced.
- the compound carrying at least two (meth) acrylate functions has a number average molecular weight M n of less than 5000 g / mol, more preferably less than 3000 g / mol. As a result, a sufficient scratch resistance of the paint is advantageously achieved.

- a paint suitable for the surface protection film according to the invention is selected on the basis of the Marten hardness of the paint film.
- Marten hardness is preferred over the Shore hardness, since the former is suitable for thin layered bodies, as are surface protection films, since the measuring forces and thus the penetration depths are low.

- Shore hardness testing can not be used for thin films.
- the Martens hardness of the lacquer layer is in a range of 2 N / mm 2 to 3.5 N / mm 2 , preferably in a range of 2 N / mm 2 to 3 N / mm 2 , preferably in a range of 2 N / mm 2 to 2.5 N / mm 2 .
- the surface protection film still has self-healing properties, however, the paint with a further decreasing Marten hardness is too soft and the abrasion determined in the trickle test is higher.
- the surface of these particles is preferably functionalized in such a way that the particles not only form a stable suspension in the organic matrix formed by the paint resin mixture, but can also be chemically linked to the organic network that forms during the curing process. It is particularly advantageous if such a surface functionalization takes place by reaction of the particles with coupling reagents such as, in particular, unsaturated silanes or titanates (see, for example, LN Lewis, D. Katsamberis, J. Appl., Polym., Sei., 1991, 42, 1551, EP 1 366 1 12 B1 of Hansechemie, EP 2 292 703 A1 of the Cetelon Lackfabrik or US 6,136,912 A of Clariant SA).

- the polymer film can be selected from the elastomeric polymer films known to those skilled in the art.
- plastic films made from:
- Polyolefins such as polyethylene (PE) and its copolymers such as ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), ethylane-acrylate (EAA), ethylene-methacrylate (EMA), as well as ionomers, PVC, fluoropolymers, styrene block copolymers (SBC) and polyurethane, as well as mixtures ( Blends) of elastomers with each other or with other polymers.

- the layer thickness is determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In doing so, the samples are cut under liquid nitrogen. From the cross-sections overview shots and detail shots are made. The thickness of the protective lacquer layer is measured on the polymer film layer.
- the molecular weight determinations of the number-average molecular weights M n and the weight-average molecular weights M w were carried out by means of gel permeation chromatography (GPC).
- the eluent used was THF (tetrahydrofuran) with 0.1% by volume of trifluoroacetic acid. The measurement was carried out at 25 ° C.
- the precolumn used was PSS-SDV, 5 ⁇ , 10 3 A, ID 8.0 mm ⁇ 50 mm.
- the columns PSS-SDV, 5 ⁇ , 10 3 and 10 5 and 10 6 were used , each with ID 8.0 mm x 300 mm.

After painting, the lacquer layer was covered with a 50 mm thick polyester film from DuPont (Melinex 401) without bubbles. After covering, the sample was UV-crosslinked at a web speed of 10 m / min on a continuous UV laboratory irradiation system from Eltosch with a medium-pressure mercury lamp at a radiation power of 160 watts / cm (dose about 80 mJ / cm 2 ). , The rockfall protection film K82250 comprises a polymer film of polycaprolactone-based polyurethane (thickness 250 ⁇ m) and a layer of an acrylate pressure-sensitive adhesive (thickness 60 ⁇ m).
- the suitable Marten hardness of the lacquer layer for a self-healing surface protection film is in a range from 2 N / mm 2 to 3.5 N / mm 2 , as the examples show: A range from 2 N / mm 2 to 2.5 N / mm 2 , in which the examples show balanced properties.
- the paint is too soft and the abrasion determined in the trickle test becomes higher, as can be estimated from Example 9. If the Marten hardness is above 3.5 N / mm 2 , no self-healing is achieved despite the use of a polymer film according to the invention (Comparative Example C3).
- Thicker lacquers generally show a higher brittleness (Example 1 vs. Example 2 and Example 6 vs. Example 7, so that the Martens hardness is increased overall (Example 6) and / or the kink test is not passed (Example 1) a layer thickness of 12 ⁇ or less preferred for brittle paints, preferably those which do not contain long-chain, two or more functional acrylate oligomer, such as urethane acrylate, a thickness of less than 2 ⁇ is advantageous, since then in the inventive Example 10 vs. Comparative Example C3) This result is surprising since the person skilled in the art would have expected that self-healing paints based on exclusively one or more polyfunctional monomers (L5) would not be able to build up a suitable surface protection film Make surface protection films.
- L5 polyfunctional monomers
- a particularly preferred embodiment is therefore the combination of a lacquer whose lacquer base contains exclusively monomers as reactive components, wherein at least one of the monomers has at least two (meth) acrylate functions, with a polymer film according to the invention, wherein the lacquer layer thickness is 2 m or less.
- the lower limit of the paint layer thickness it is preferable not to fall short of 0.1 ⁇ , because below the abrasion resistance decreases in the trickle test. Preference is additionally given to monomers which are only functional.
- the paint base considered are all formulation constituents which build up the organic base of the paint, ie reactive constituents such as monomers, oligomers and polymers, as well as non-reactive organic (optionally oligomeric or polymeric) Ingredients such as plasticizers, waxes and oils. Initiators, sensitizers, fillers, pigments, light and aging inhibitors and other common additives are not part of the paint base. "On the basis of” or “based on” herein means that the properties of the paint are at least greatly determined by the basic properties of the paint base, which of course is not excluded that this by using modifying auxiliaries or additives in the Composition additionally be influenced. In particular, this may mean that the proportion of the lacquer base in the total mass of the lacquer is more than 50% by weight.
- Comparative Example C1 is a commercial surface protection film made of a thermoplastic polyurethane polymer film with a polyurethane lacquer layer. This represents the market standard with regard to the usual requirements for surface protection films such as scratch resistance (sclerometer test), gloss, abrasion resistance (trickle test), kink resistance and yellowing. The comparison with the examples according to the invention shows that the properties of the market standard are consistently achieved. In the field of abrasion resistance, these are even regularly exceeded. V1 is not self-healing, here are the surface protection films of the invention have advantages.
- Comparative Example C2 uses a polymer film having a Martens hardness of more than 4 N / mm 2 . As a result, the surface protection film no longer has self-healing properties.
- the polymer film Platilon U 2102 used furthermore has an elongation at break of 450%, while the polymer film K82250 according to the invention only achieves an elongation at break of about 250%.
- Martens hardness and elastic recovery do not correlate with elongation at break, such that a more ductile film is considered to be softer or more elastic than a less ductile film.
- V2 and V3 continue to show weaknesses in the buckling test, as both too hard a film and too hard a paint cause cracking. These surface protection films thus do not reach the market standard (V1).
