Definitions
- the present invention relates to a friction body, a writing instrument and a writing instrument set.
- thermochromic ink and a friction body and are configured so as to rub an image formed using the thermochromic ink with the friction body and allow the image to change color by frictional heat.
- friction bodies include those composed of an elastomer.
- PTL1 describes a friction body having elasticity that allows an image formed using a reversible thermochromic ink to change color from a first state to a second state by frictional heat, wherein the friction body is composed of silicone rubber.
- PTL2 describes a friction body that allows an image formed using a reversible thermochromic ink to change color from a first state to a second state by frictional heat, wherein the friction body is composed of a styrene-butylene-styrene copolymer or styrene-ethylenebutylene-styrene copolymer.
- PTL2 describes to the effect that a friction body is obtained which, in addition to being able to allow a thermochromic image to easily change color without peeling off, is capable of reforming the thermochromic image on a rubbed portion without repelling the ink.

- a friction body composed of a styrene-based copolymer as described in PTL2
- the problem occurs in which a state results in which the paper becomes soiled due in particular to a strong load or repeated rubbing motion and the like (also simply referred to as "paper soiling” below).
- An object of the present invention is to solve the aforementioned problem by providing a friction body, which in addition to being capable of favorably allowing an image having thermochromicity to change color by rubbing (namely, impart a favorable color change), is capable of reducing soiling of paper caused by a strong force and/or repeated rubbing motion, and to provide a writing instrument and writing instrument set provided with this friction body.
- the present invention at least includes the aspects indicated below.
- a friction body capable of favorably allowing an image having thermochromicity to change color (namely, imparting a favorable color change) by rubbing in addition to reducing paper soiling caused by strong force and/or repeated rubbing motion, along with a writing instrument and writing instrument set provided with such a friction body, can be provided.
- One aspect of the present invention is a friction body that allows an image having thermochromicity to change color with frictional heat, the friction body containing a styrene-based elastomer and having compression set at 120°C of 80% or less and Shore A hardness of 60 to 98.
- an "image having thermochromicity” refers to an image that has the property of maintaining a prescribed color (first color) at normal temperature (such as 25°C), changing to a different color (second color) when the temperature thereof is raised to a prescribed temperature (such as 60°C), and optionally returning to the original color (first color) when subsequently cooled to a prescribed temperature (such as -5°C).
- An image having thermochromicity can typically be formed using a thermochromic ink to be subsequently described.
- the cause of a paper surface becoming soiled particularly by strong force and/or repeated rubbing motion when changing the color of an image having thermochromicity by rubbing with a friction body is not clear.
- the cause thereof may be that the physical properties of the friction body change as the surface temperature of the friction body rises during rubbing, and that destruction of the friction body (and more specifically, local separation) occurs causing the friction body to adhere to the paper surface, thereby causing soiling of the paper surface.
- the inventors of the present invention surmised that the force applied to the paper surface during rubbing becomes uneven due to softening of the elastomer, thereby resulting in a locally strong force being applied to the ink when the color of the ink is attempted to be changed completely, with the resulting destruction of the thermochromic coloring material causing soiling of the paper surface.
- the inventors of the present invention found that controlling deformation recovery of the friction body particularly in the high-temperature range is effective for reducing the aforementioned destruction of the friction body.
- the friction body provided by one aspect of the present invention has suitable hardness and demonstrates favorable deformation recovery even at high temperatures as a result of controlling the balance between Shore A hardness and compression set in the high-temperature range, in addition to allowing an image having thermochromicity to favorably change color (namely, impart a favorable color change) by rubbing, it is capable of reducing soiling of the paper surface due to infrequent occurrence of destruction of the friction body attributable to strong force and/or repeated rubbing motion.
- the friction body has compression set at 120°C (also referred to as "120°C compression set" in the present disclosure) of 80% or less.

JP-A-2004-148744 - [PTL2]
JP-A-2006-123324 - The inventors of the present invention noticed that, when an image having thermochromicity (and typically, an image formed on paper using a thermochromic ink) is allowed to change color by rubbing with a friction body composed of a styrene-based copolymer as described in PTL2, for example, the problem occurs in which a state results in which the paper becomes soiled due in particular to a strong load or repeated rubbing motion and the like (also simply referred to as "paper soiling" below). An object of the present invention is to solve the aforementioned problem by providing a friction body, which in addition to being capable of favorably allowing an image having thermochromicity to change color by rubbing (namely, impart a favorable color change), is capable of reducing soiling of paper caused by a strong force and/or repeated rubbing motion, and to provide a writing instrument and writing instrument set provided with this friction body.

FIG. 1 is a partial cross-sectional view of a writing instrument according to one embodiment of the present invention. -
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a friction body according to one embodiment of the present invention. -
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a friction body according to one embodiment of the present invention. - Although the following provides an explanation of exemplary aspects of the present invention, the present invention is not limited to these aspects. Furthermore, various characteristic values described in the present disclosure are intended to be values measured according to methods described in the section on "Examples" of the present disclosure, or methods understood to be equivalent thereto by a person with ordinary skill in the art, unless specifically indicated otherwise.
- One aspect of the present invention is a friction body that allows an image having thermochromicity to change color with frictional heat, the friction body containing a styrene-based elastomer and having compression set at 120°C of 80% or less and Shore A hardness of 60 to 98.
- In the present disclosure, an "image having thermochromicity" refers to an image that has the property of maintaining a prescribed color (first color) at normal temperature (such as 25°C), changing to a different color (second color) when the temperature thereof is raised to a prescribed temperature (such as 60°C), and optionally returning to the original color (first color) when subsequently cooled to a prescribed temperature (such as -5°C). An image having thermochromicity can typically be formed using a thermochromic ink to be subsequently described.
- The cause of a paper surface becoming soiled particularly by strong force and/or repeated rubbing motion when changing the color of an image having thermochromicity by rubbing with a friction body is not clear. However, the inventors of the present invention surmised that the cause thereof may be that the physical properties of the friction body change as the surface temperature of the friction body rises during rubbing, and that destruction of the friction body (and more specifically, local separation) occurs causing the friction body to adhere to the paper surface, thereby causing soiling of the paper surface. Alternatively, the inventors of the present invention surmised that the force applied to the paper surface during rubbing becomes uneven due to softening of the elastomer, thereby resulting in a locally strong force being applied to the ink when the color of the ink is attempted to be changed completely, with the resulting destruction of the thermochromic coloring material causing soiling of the paper surface. The inventors of the present invention found that controlling deformation recovery of the friction body particularly in the high-temperature range is effective for reducing the aforementioned destruction of the friction body.
- Since the friction body provided by one aspect of the present invention has suitable hardness and demonstrates favorable deformation recovery even at high temperatures as a result of controlling the balance between Shore A hardness and compression set in the high-temperature range, in addition to allowing an image having thermochromicity to favorably change color (namely, impart a favorable color change) by rubbing, it is capable of reducing soiling of the paper surface due to infrequent occurrence of destruction of the friction body attributable to strong force and/or repeated rubbing motion.
- The friction body has compression set at 120°C (also referred to as "120°C compression set" in the present disclosure) of 80% or less. A small 120°C compression set is an indicator of favorable deformation recovery of the friction body under rubbing conditions (namely, under high-temperature conditions), and this favorable deformation recovery contributes to maintaining favorable wear resistance of the friction body particularly under rubbing conditions (namely, under high-temperature conditions).
- 120°C compression set may be 80% or less, 70% or less or 60% or less from the viewpoint of favorable wear resistance of the friction body under high-temperature conditions. 120°C compression set is preferably as small as possible from the viewpoint of wear resistance under high-temperature conditions. Furthermore, in the present disclosure, compression set is a value measured in compliance with JIS K6262-2013.
- In general, the compression set of a molded body formed from an elastomer tends to increase accompanying a rise in temperature. The friction body of the present disclosure has a small 120°C compression set within a specific range as described above. It is advantageous from the viewpoint of obtaining this 120°C compression set that there is little temperature dependency of the compression set of the friction body. Thus, the ratio (A)/(B) of the compression set of the friction body at 120°C (A) to the compression set of the friction body at 70°C (B) may be 1.0 to 1.7, 1.0 to 1.5, 1.0 to 1.4 or 1.0 to 1.3.
- The friction body has Shore A hardness of 60 to 98. From the viewpoints of favorable color change of an image having thermochromicity and favorable wear resistance of the friction body, Shore A hardness may be 60 or more, 70 or more or 80 or more. From the viewpoint of increasing contact area with the paper surface as a result of pressing the friction body onto the paper surface, and therefore allowing a favorable color change to be easily obtained, Shore A hardness may be 98 or less, 95 or less or 90 or less. Furthermore, in the present disclosure, Shore A hardness is a value measured in compliance with JIS K 6253-3-2012.
- The composition of material components composing the friction body of the present disclosure is designed so as to impart the desired 120°C compression set and Shore A hardness as described above. Typically, the friction body contains an elastomer component and an additive component. Although the following indicates examples of preferable material components for forming a friction body in which both 120°C compression set and Shore A hardness are controlled to within the desired ranges of the present disclosure, the material components are not limited to those exemplified below.

Among these, 1,3-butadiene and isoprene are preferable. One or more types of these conjugated diene compounds can be used for the aforementioned conjugated diene compound.

- One or two or more types of the aforementioned examples of styrene-based block copolymers and/or hydrogenation products thereof can be used as a mixture.
- The styrene-based elastomer may be crosslinked. Increasing the degree of crosslinking contributes to a decrease in 120°C compression set and an increase in Shore A hardness. In this case, SEBS, SEPS and SEEPS, in which styrene is substituted with p-methylstyrene, are preferable from the viewpoints of heat resistance and wear resistance. Furthermore, whether or not the styrene-based elastomer is crosslinked can be distinguished by immersing in hot xylene at 120°C for 24 hours followed by visually observing whether a gel fraction remains or measuring residual weight. A crosslinking agent to be subsequently described (component (E)) can be used for crosslinking. In the exemplified aspects, the friction body is not required to contain a polymer insoluble in hot xylene at 120°C other than a crosslinked styrene-based elastomer.

In general, however, since high molecular weight silicone-based compounds tend to have poor handling as a result of being highly viscous liquids or rubber-like, resin blends or copolymers with resin are preferable in terms of use. Although resins used here are selected in consideration of such factors as compatibility with other components composing the friction body and compatibility with the aforementioned Component (A) in particular, typically polyethylene, polypropylene or other olefin-based resins are preferable.

- The aforementioned organic peroxides are compounds in which one or two or more hydrogen atoms of hydrogen peroxide are substituted with free organic groups. Since organic peroxides have a peroxide bond in a molecule thereof, these organic peroxides generate radicals during production of the friction body (such as during melting and kneading of the material composition) and these radicals react in the manner of chain reaction to act to crosslink the aforementioned Component (A).
- Examples of the organic peroxides include dicumyl peroxide, di-tert-butyl peroxide, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di-(tert-butylperoxy)hexane, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di-(tert-butylperoxy)hexyne-3, 1-3-bis(tert-butylperoxyisopropyl)benzene, 1,1-bis(tert-butylperoxy)-3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane, n-butyl-4,4-bis(tert-butylperoxy)valerate, benzoyl peroxide, p-chlorobenzoyl peroxide, 2,4-dicyclobenzoyl peroxide, tert-butylperoxy benzoate, tert-butylperoxyisopropyl carbonate, diacetyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide and tert-butylcumyl peroxide.

- A resole resin is preferable for the aforementioned phenol-based compound from the viewpoint of normally being in a liquid state. Resole resins are produced by condensation of an aldehyde (and preferably formaldehyde) in an alkaline medium or by condensation of a bifunctional phenol dialcohol.

One or more types of these compounds can be used for Component (F).
- Among the aforementioned examples of Component (F), multifunctional acrylate compounds and multifunctional methacrylate compounds are preferable, and triallyl cyanurate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate and tetraethylene glycol dimethacrylate are particularly preferable. In addition to facilitating handling, since these compounds have an action that solubilizes organic peroxides and act as dispersion assistants of organic peroxide, crosslinking can be made to be more uniform and efficient when used in combination with an organic peroxide.

-
FIG. 1 is a partial cross-sectional view of a writing instrument according to one embodiment of the present invention. Awriting instrument 1 has acylindrical barrel 2, a writing body in the form of a refill cartridge (not shown) arranged within thebarrel 2 and provided with a writingportion 3 on one end thereof, afriction body 5 provided on the rear end of thebarrel 2 via a retainingmember 4, acover member 6 covering thefriction body 5 and is removable from thefriction body 5, and aclip 7 attached to the side of the rear end of thebarrel 2 that clips onto an article. In the present disclosure, the side of the writingportion 3 in the axial direction of thewriting instrument 1 is defined as the "front", while the opposite side from the writingportion 3 is defined as the "rear". Unless specifically indicated otherwise, the central axis refers to the central axis of thewriting instrument 1. - The
writing instrument 1 is a thermochromic writing instrument that houses a thermochromic ink in the refill cartridge thereof, and allows handwriting written with thewriting instrument 1 to thermally change color due to frictional heat generated when rubbed with thefriction body 5. - The
friction body 5 can be moved relative to thebarrel 2 by pressing forward. In thewriting instrument 1, the refill cartridge is moved forward and backward within thebarrel 2 by a knocking operation in which thefriction body 5 is pushed forward in opposition to the urging force of a spring arranged within thebarrel 2. At this time, the state in which thewriting portion 3 protrudes from thebarrel 2 is referred to as the writing state (FIG. 1 ), while the state in which thewriting portion 3 is embedded within thebarrel 2 is referred to as the non-writing state (not shown). -
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of thefriction body 5 and retainingmember 4 of thewriting instrument 1. InFIG. 2 , the bottom of the drawing indicates the front side of thewriting instrument 1. Thefriction body 5 is provided on the retainingmember 4 by engaging therewith or by two-color molding. - The
friction body 5 is formed into the shape of a tapered truncated triangular pyramid having a roughly triangular cross-sectional shape. More specifically, in a cross-section thereof, the vertex of the triangle is rounded and formed into the shape of an arc, and the radius of curvature of that arc becomes larger towards the rear end of thefriction body 5. Arear end surface 5a of thefriction body 5 is formed into the shape of a curve. Thus, the boundaries between therear end surface 5a andperipheral surfaces 5b of thefriction body 5 constituteridgelines 5c. - In the
friction body 5, the use of therear end surface 5a makes it possible to rub a wider area. In addition, thefriction body 5 is also able to rub a wider area by using theridgelines 5c equivalent to the sides of a triangle, and is able to rub a narrower area by using the portion equivalent to the vortex of a triangle. Namely, the employing of a shape having one or more corners (such as the vertexes of a triangle) as viewed from the axial direction by thefriction body 5 is advantageous from the viewpoint of favorably rubbing both wide areas and narrow areas. Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of thefriction body 5 is naturally not limited to a triangle, but rather may be that of a tetragon, hexagon or other polygon. - Furthermore, the friction body may also be provided on a portion, other than the rear end portion of the
barrel 2, of thewriting instrument 1 such as the front end portion of thebarrel 2 or theclip 7. In addition, the friction body may also be provided on a thermochromic writing instrument other than a knock-type writing instrument as shown inFIG. 1 , such as on the rear end portion of the barrel or on the tip of a cap in a capped writing instrument. - Another aspect of the present invention provides:

FIG. 3 is a perspective view of aseparate friction body 10. Although thefriction body 10 inFIG. 3 is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped housed in acase 11, it may also be in the shape of a cube or cylindrical column. - The writing instrument of the present disclosure has a thermochromic ink. In the present disclosure, a "thermochromic ink" refers to an ink that has the property of maintaining a prescribed color (first color) at normal temperature (such as 25°C), changing to a different color (second color) when the temperature thereof is raised to a prescribed temperature (such as 60°C), and optionally returning to the original color (first color) when subsequently cooled to a prescribed temperature (such as -5°C).

- Although the contents of the leuco pigment, developer and color change temperature adjusting agent vary according to such factors as the types of leuco pigment, developer and color change temperature adjusting agent used or type of microencapsulation method, the content thereof based on weight ratio is 0.1 to 100 of the color developer and 1 to 100 of the color change temperature adjusting agent based on 1 part of the leuco pigment. In addition, the content of capsule membrane agent is 0.1 to 1 as the weight ratio based on the weight of the capsule contents.
- The coloring temperature (such as coloring at 0°C or higher) and decoloring temperature (such as decoloring at 50°C or higher) of each color of the thermochromic microcapsule pigment can be set to a preferable temperature by preferably combining the types and quantities of the aforementioned leuco pigment, developer and color change temperature adjusting agent, and the thermochromic microcapsule pigment preferably is changed from colored to colorless by frictional heat imparted by the friction body of the present disclosure.
- The wall film of the thermochromic microcapsule pigment is preferably formed with urethane resin, urea/urethane resin, epoxy resin or amino resin from the viewpoints of improving drawn line concentration, storage stability and writing properties. The thickness of the wall film of the microcapsule colorant is suitably determined corresponding to the required wall film strength and drawn line concentration.

- A conventionally known method can be employed to produce the thermochromic ink, and for example, the thermochromic ink can be obtained incorporating prescribed amounts of the aforementioned thermochromic or photochromic microcapsule pigment and each of the aforementioned aqueous components followed by stirring and mixing with a homomixer or stirrer such as a disperser. Coarse particles present in the thermochromic ink may be further removed by filtration or centrifugal separation as is necessary.
- The viscosity value of the thermochromic ink at 25°C and shear velocity of 3.83/s is preferably 500 mPa·s to 2000 mPa·s while that at a shear velocity of 383/s is preferably 20 mPa·s to 100 mPa·s.
