2. Description of the Related Art There has been a strong demand for a bright interior color of an automobile to produce a sense of openness, and vehicles employing bright colors for seats and door trims are increasing. However, if a bright color is used for the instrument panel, the surface of the instrument panel is reflected on the windshield, and driving becomes extremely difficult. For this reason, most cars still use dark tones.

As a means for overcoming this problem, anti-reflection treatment has been considered to be applied to the surface of the window glass. Conventionally, a transparent dielectric material having a different refractive index, which is conventionally used for glasses or camera lenses, is made of a multilayer. Coated as a membrane,
In some cases, the reflectivity of incident light is reduced by interference. As such a material, JP-A No. 12-347002 can be exemplified, in which a high refractive index layer and a middle / low refractive index layer are formed on a substrate.
The layers are alternately stacked.

As another method, there is a method of forming a porous film having pores on a substrate such as glass. As described above, since a method using a porous film can form a film having an apparently lower refractive index than a material that actually exists, it is possible to exhibit excellent antireflection properties even with a single layer. As such a material, JP-A-7-300346 can be exemplified, and after the surface of a glass substrate is etched with an inorganic acid to form surface irregularities to form a low refractive index layer, the surface is further treated with a fluoroalkyl It is treated with silane to provide antifouling properties.

In order to exhibit excellent antireflection performance, it is essential to perform antireflection treatment on both surfaces of the substrate.
In the case of a windshield of an automobile, the surface on the indoor side has relatively few problems, but the outdoor side is exposed to sliding of the wiper in rainy weather or the like, so that the environment is extremely severe. In such an environment, the conventional multilayer interference film or porous film is extremely easily damaged and peeled, and thus cannot be practically used.

Further, in the case of the multilayer interference film described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 12-347002, it is necessary to sequentially process and form several layers of film, which increases the manufacturing cost. Further, even if a water repellent treatment of about several nm is performed on the surface, the performance of removing water droplets is not sufficient, and the use of a wiper is indispensable, so that the problem cannot be solved.

In particular, in the case of the porous membrane described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-300346, since the holes are formed by etching, the holes are likely to have a continuous structure and a random structure. They tend to be vulnerable to movement, and are often damaged by rubbing with nails. In addition,
When the surface of the porous membrane is treated with a fluoroalkylsilane described in -300346, the contact angle to water becomes larger than that of a smooth surface, and there is a possibility that the use frequency of the wiper in rainy weather may be reduced. However, once sliding with the wiper, the film is easily broken.

Although a light-transmitting plate is proposed, it is difficult to form a processing layer with the accuracy of substantially preventing interference reflection in the visible light region by this method, and the reflection of light incident on the window glass becomes a problem. Can not be used as means for suppressing

When the low reflection member of the present invention is used for a windshield for an automobile, the windshield for an automobile is usually installed at an angle of about 20 ° to 40 ° from a horizontal plane, and especially installed at about 30 °. Most of them are.
On the other hand, the reflection of the instrument panel on the windshield, as shown in Fig. 1, reflects the external light entering the room at the upper surface of the instrument panel, and at an angle of about 60 ° to the normal line of the windshield. It is caused by entering, reflecting and entering the driver's eyes. Therefore, in order to effectively reduce the reflection of the instrument panel, it is necessary to reduce the reflectance at the incident angle near 60 °.

From the above, when the substrate is made of soda lime glass having a refractive index of 1.52 at an incident angle of 60 ° on the porous film surface, if the film thickness is smaller than 10 nm, the volume porosity changes. However, the reflectance cannot be sufficiently reduced with respect to the untreated glass, and the antireflection performance becomes insufficient. Also,
If the film thickness of the porous film is larger than 300 nm, cracks are likely to occur at the time of film formation and the film is easily broken by external stress. Therefore, the film thickness needs to be 300 nm or less.

If the volume porosity is less than 30%, it is difficult to substantially reduce the reflection of the untreated glass, and if the porosity is more than 75%, the porous film is easily broken by external stress. The volume porosity is desirably between 30% and 75%. The film thickness in the range of volumetric porosity, can be an effective low-reflection film by selecting a combination that the visible light reflectance R v is minimized.

Further, if necessary, the surface of the porous film may be subjected to a hydrophobic treatment with a fluoroalkylsilane or a silicone having an alkoxy group to impart water repellency. In the case of a porous film having holes in a direction substantially perpendicular to the substrate as in the present invention, the contact angle of water droplets is larger than that of a smooth surface due to a large specific surface area. Since water can enter only halfway, the contact angle of the water droplet becomes extremely large, indicating a so-called super water repellency.

In such a state, the rain that has fallen even during rainfall bounces on the surface, and is blown off by the wind during traveling, so that there is almost no need to use a wiper to secure a view.

Next, a method for producing the porous film of the present invention will be described. A mixed solution composed of water, an acid, a surfactant of an alkylammonium salt and an alkoxysilane compound forms a coating layer on a substrate, and when left standing, the alkoxysilane compound reacts with water using the acid as a catalyst to gel. Progresses. At the same time, the surfactant of the alkylammonium salt causes self-organization, and is regularly arranged at substantially constant intervals to form micelles which are aggregated in a direction perpendicular to the film surface. Thus, a self-assembled film using the surfactant as a template is formed.

This is dried at a low temperature of about 80 ° C. and then washed with water. Further, the partial hydrolyzate of the gel silica is baked at a high temperature of about 500 ° C. in an oven, and the organic surfactant is decomposed and removed. By doing so, it is possible to obtain one in which pores are formed in a direction substantially perpendicular to the base material and are arranged with regularity on the surface of the porous film. Note that if the temperature is raised at the time of firing and then the temperature is lowered to room temperature rapidly, cracks are likely to be formed in the film.

Example 1 A mixed solution was prepared so that the molar ratio of water, hydrochloric acid, surfactant C 18 H 37 N (CH 3 ) 2 Br, and tetraethoxysilane was 100: 7.5: 0.1: 0.2. After soda lime glass was immersed in this mixed solution for 1 hour, it was slowly pulled up and taken out, and air-dried for 1 hour. Then, it was dried in an oven at 80 ° C. for 3 hours, and subsequently washed with pure water. Transfer this to the furnace, 1
After the temperature was raised from room temperature to 500 ° C. over a period of time and kept at this temperature for 3 hours, the temperature was lowered to room temperature over 1 hour to obtain a porous film.

The volume porosity of the porous film on the sample surface was measured by a nitrogen adsorption method and found to be 55%. In addition, when the shape of the sample surface was measured with an atomic force microscope (AFM), it was found that pores having a diameter of 5 nm to 7 nm were regularly arranged. When the fracture surface was observed with a high-resolution scanning electron microscope (SEM), the pores were almost perpendicular to the glass substrate and the film thickness was 150 nm.
