2. Description of the Related Art Stainless steel utensils are not easily rusted, are durable and have excellent durability, and are therefore widely used in bowls and plates for group lunches in schools, hospitals, etc. to cooking utensils. However, since the stainless steel surface is hydrophobic (in other words, lipophilic), it has a drawback that it cannot be sufficiently washed and removed when oil stains are attached. The hydrophobic stainless steel surface has a property of repelling water, and the water droplets remaining on the stainless steel surface become droplets having a large contact angle. Droplets remaining after washing stainless steel equipment often contain oil as well as water, and become waterdrop-shaped stains after evaporation of water, which tends to impair the cleanliness of a beautiful stainless steel surface. Conspicuous fingerprints attached are also a drawback of stainless steel products.

The surface of stainless steel is made hydrophilic in order to improve resistance to oil stains, ease of removing oil stains, deterioration of cleanliness due to polka-dot stains, and conspicuousness of adhered fingerprints. It is possible to do it. Hydrophilization of the surface of stainless steel includes coating with a surfactant, a water-absorbent resin, a hydrophilic photocatalyst, enamelling, ceramic spraying, and silica film formation. However, both methods have problems in application to stainless steel products.

When a surface-active agent is applied to a stainless steel product, a high hydrophilicity can be imparted to the surface of the stainless steel, but since the surface-active agent itself is water-soluble, the hydrophilicity disappears in a short period of time. The water-absorbent resin can impart high hydrophilicity like the surfactant, but is easily deteriorated by washing with an alkaline detergent. A stainless steel product that has been made hydrophilic with a photocatalyst requires a light source such as a black light to cause a photocatalytic reaction. Therefore, when cleaning used stainless steelware with a dish washer / dryer, it is required to modify the dish washer / dryer. Coatings such as enamelling, ceramic sprayed layers, and silica coatings all have poor workability and inferior impact resistance. Further, the silica film is deteriorated by the alkaline detergent.

When the proportion of silicon oxide in the entire coating is 1% by mass or more, sufficient hydrophilicity is imparted to the coating. However, if the silicon oxide content exceeds 90% by mass, the alkali resistance of the film will be reduced.

The improvement of the durability and altitude of the film due to the divalent metal ion is due to the fact that silicon oxide,

When a copolymer containing polyacrylic acid or an acrylic acid monomer is blended in the hydrophilic film, the adhesion of the hydrophilic film to the substrate / stainless steel is improved. It is considered that the improved adhesiveness is a result of the acrylic acid polymer intervening at the interface between the surface of the stainless steel and the inorganic film to improve the affinity. The effect of improving the adhesiveness is observed when the blending amount of the copolymer containing polyacrylic acid or acrylic acid monomer is 1% by mass or more. However, if the blending amount exceeds 10% by mass,
A decrease in hydrophilicity is observed.

Prior to the formation of the hydrophilic film, the substrate / stainless steel may be conditioned to have a surface roughness of Rz: 0.1 to 10 μm. The surface roughness of Rz: 0.1 to 10 μm is effective in making fingerprints attached to the stainless steel product inconspicuous. Rz: When the surface roughness is less than 0.1 μm, the surface gloss of the stainless steel product is increased and the attached fingerprint is emphasized. On the other hand, when the surface roughness Rz is more than 10 μm, the press formability is deteriorated, and it becomes difficult to wash and remove the starch and the like adhering to the container during use. The surface roughness of the material / stainless steel plate or the base material / stainless steel plate formed into a container shape is Rz: 0.1 to 10μ by polishing and blasting.
Although it can be adjusted to m, surface finishing such as electropolishing and shot blasting with no grain direction is preferable.

[Application to spoon] S having a plate thickness of 1.2 mm
A US430 stainless steel plate was formed and mechanically polished to prepare a spoon. Spoon 5% NaO
It was degreased and washed with an aqueous H solution for 1 hour, rinsed with distilled water, and naturally dried. The dried spoon was dipped in the hydrophilic coating liquid I at a temperature of 23 ° C. and pulled out from the hydrophilic coating liquid I at a pulling rate of 1 mm / sec. Then, the spoon was placed in a heating furnace and heated in an air atmosphere at 250 ° C. for 2 minutes to form a hydrophilic film having a thickness of 0.2 μm on the surface of the spoon. The spoon having a hydrophilic film has a water contact angle of 19 degrees, and compared to the spoon having no hydrophilic film having a water contact angle of 72 degrees, it can be seen that the hydrophilic film imparts hydrophilicity. . The oil stains attached to the spoon provided with the hydrophilic film could be easily removed only by washing with water without using a detergent.

A 304 stainless steel plate was pressed to produce a bowl. For some bowls, # 80 hairline polishing, #
240 hairline polishing, electrolytic polishing, shot blasting,
Etching finish etc. were applied to the inner and outer surfaces. Further, some of the bowls were degreased / washed with a 10% NaOH aqueous solution for 30 minutes, washed with water, dried, and then sprayed with the hydrophilic coating liquid I. In this example, a solution prepared by diluting the hydrophilic coating solution I with 2-propanol three times by weight was prepared and sprayed at a rate of 0.1 g per 100 cm 2 of the bowl. After spraying, the bowl placed in the heating furnace is heated to 200 ° C in the atmosphere.
By heating for 1 minute, a hydrophilic film was formed on the surface of the bowl.

The surface roughness of each bowl was measured according to JIS B0601, and the oil stain removability, dry stain prevention, fingerprint visibility, and starch removability were investigated. To remove oil stains, apply salad oil with blue paint dissolved on the inner surface of the bowl to
It was evaluated by visually observing the inner surface of the bowl after soaking in warm water at ℃ for 1 minute and ultrasonic cleaning. The anti-dry stain property was evaluated by visually observing the surface of the bowl after setting the bowl washed with tap water in a warm air dryer in a prone position and leaving it at 40 ° C. for 3 hours. For fingerprint visibility, fingerprints were adhered to the inner and outer surfaces of the bowl, and a sensory evaluation of the conspicuousness of the adhered fingerprints was performed. The starch removability was evaluated based on the presence or absence of color reaction after the inner surface of the bowl, which had been rubbed until the rice grains were crushed, was washed with water using a sponge and dried, and then an iodine solution was applied.

As can be seen from the results of the survey in Table 1, the bowls provided with a hydrophilic coating exhibited excellent hydrophilicity and oil stain removability in comparison with the uncoated bowls, and dry spots were also detected. The fingerprints were hard to see. Among them, the surface roughness Rz:
With a bowl having a non-directional surface finish of 0.1 μm or more, it was extremely difficult to see the attached fingerprints. Further, by controlling the surface roughness to Rz: 10 μm or less, the starch stuck to the bowl surface could be easily removed. Moreover, since the hydrophilic film suppresses the emission of the odor peculiar to metal, it was suitable as a tableware for food and drink with a high taste.
