Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an illumination device wherein a substrate made of a resin is protected and separation of an intermediate layer is prevented. SOLUTION: A lower side cover 16 is formed by forming an intermediate layer 22 of methyl phenyl silicone resin having a thickness of 1 μm containing silicon oxide of carbon-silicon ratio of 1.2 to 1.6 on a substrate 21 of a heat resistant methacrylic resin and forming a photocatalyst film 23 primary constituent of which is titanium oxide on the intermediate layer 22. When an organic group is reduced, the intermediate layer 22 is easy to separate from the catalyst 21 and when the organic group is increased, the organic group is reacted with a photocatalyst layer 23 and photocatalyst reaction between the intermediate layer 22 and the catalyst layer 23 is caused so that photocatalyst action on the surface of the photocatalyst layer 23 is deteriorated. If the intermediate layer 22 has a heavier thickness, separation is easy to occur and if the layer 22 is thin, the substrate 21 made of the resin cannot be protected against the catalyst film 23 sufficiently.

According to the photocatalyst of the first aspect, the composition ratio (R / Si) of the organic group (R) and the silicon (Si) of the intermediate layer formed on the surface of the resin base is determined. When it is smaller than 1.1, the number of organic groups decreases and the inorganic layer approaches the inorganic layer, causing cracks or the intermediate layer is easily peeled off from the resin base,
When it is larger than 1.5, the organic group reacts with the photocatalytic film to cause a photocatalytic action between the intermediate layer and the photocatalytic film, and the photocatalytic action on the surface of the photocatalytic film decreases, and when the film thickness is more than 30 μm, choking occurs. When the film thickness is less than 0.5 μm, the resin base cannot be sufficiently protected from the photocatalytic film. Therefore, the composition ratio (R / Si) between the organic group and silicon (Si) is 1. When the thickness is 1 to 1.5, the thickness is set to 0.5 μm to 30 μm to prevent peeling of the intermediate layer and prevent deterioration of the resin base without lowering the photocatalytic action.
