【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、防曇効果、シート外観、シートの高温多湿時の保管性に優れた防曇性スチレン系透明樹脂シート及びその成形品に関する。更に詳しくは包装材分野等に広く用いられているスチレン系透明樹脂シートに対し、防曇効果、シート外観、夏期の倉庫保管を考慮したシートの高温多湿時の保管性に優れた特性を付与したスチレン系透明樹脂シート及びその成形品に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
スチレン系透明樹脂シートやその成形品は包装、被覆材として広く使用されているが、その表面が疎水性の為に気温や湿度の変化により凝集した水分が微小水滴となり表面に付着する、いわゆる曇りが発生することがある。その曇りにより収納物の見分けが困難となり、商品価値を低下させる原因となる場合が多かった。
【0003】
この問題を解決しようと、特開平10−309785号公報ではショ糖脂肪酸エステルとメチルセルロースの混合物を用いることが記載されているが防曇効果、シート外観、夏期の倉庫保管を考慮したシートの高温多湿時の保管性のバランスに優れたとは言えなかった。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、上記のような技術状況の基で、防曇効果、シート外観、夏期の倉庫保管を考慮したシートの高温多湿時の保管性に優れたスチレン系透明樹脂シート及びその成形品を提供することを目的とする。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは、上記の課題を解決すべく鋭意検討を重ねた結果、特定の構成からなる防曇剤を使用することによって本発明に達したものである。すなわち、本発明は、スチレン系透明樹脂シートをショ糖ラウリン酸エステル70〜99質量%とHLBが12以上のショ糖ステアリン酸エステル30〜1質量%を含有してなる防曇剤で表面処理して得た防曇性スチレン系透明樹脂シート及びそのシートを用いて得た成形品とすることによって課題を解決したものである。
【0006】
以下に本発明を詳しく説明する。
本発明の防曇剤はショ糖ラウリン酸エステルとHLB(Hydrophile−Lipophile Balance)が12以上のショ糖ステアリン酸エステルを必須とする。本発明のショ糖ラウリン酸エステルはラウリン酸成分の割合は、50質量%以上であるが、好ましくは55質量%以上、更に好ましくは65質量%以上であるものが好ましい。ラウリン酸としての割合が50質量%以上のショ糖ラウリン酸エステルを使用した場合、表面処理性に優れ、更に防曇効果にも優れる。ラウリン酸以外の成分として例えば、カプロン酸、カプリル酸、ラウリン酸、ミスチリン酸、パルミチン酸、ステアリン酸、ベヘニン酸、モンタン酸などの炭素数6〜30程度の飽和脂肪酸、リンデン酸、パルミトオレイン酸、オレイン酸、エライジン酸、イソオレイン酸、エルカ酸、リノール酸、リノレン酸などの炭素数10〜24程度の不飽和脂肪酸が挙げられ、これら脂肪酸は単独でも併用してもよい。
【0007】
本発明のHLBが12以上のショ糖ステアリン酸エステルはステアリン酸成分の割合が50質量%以上であるが、好ましくは55質量%以上、更に好ましくは65質量%以上であるものが好ましい。ステアリン酸成分としての割合が50質量%以上のショ糖ステアリン酸エステルを使用した場合、高温多湿時の保管性に優れる傾向が見られる。その他の成分としてはパルミチン酸、ミスチリン酸等の単独でも併用でも構わない。
【0008】
本発明は、HLBが12以上のショ糖ステアリン酸エステルを使用することが必須であり、好ましくはHLBが13以上、特に好ましくはHLBが14以上である。HLBが12より小さいと水への溶解性に劣る。その為、水溶液でシートに塗布する場合シート表面への均一な表面処理が難しく、塗布ムラが発生し易くなる。なお、HLBが12未満のショ糖ステアリン酸エステルを含有することもできるが、その場合用いる全ショ糖ステアリン酸エステル中において、HLBが12以上の割合が70質量%以上であることが好ましい。
【0009】
本発明の防曇剤中のショ糖ラウリン酸エステルとHLBが12以上のショ糖ステアリン酸エステルの割合は、ショ糖ラウリン酸エステルが70〜99質量%、ショ糖ステアリン酸エステル30〜1質量%である。好ましくはショ糖ラウリン酸エステルが75〜97質量%、ショ糖ステアリン酸エステル25〜3質量%、更に好ましくはショ糖ラウリン酸エステルが80〜94質量%、ショ糖ステアリン酸エステル20〜6質量%である。ショ糖ラウリン酸エステルが70質量%より小さいと防曇効果に劣る。また、ショ糖ステアリン酸エステルが1質量%より小さいと高温多湿時の保管性に劣り、30質量%より大きいと防曇効果に劣る。
【0010】
スチレン系透明樹脂シートの表面を防曇剤で処理する際には、ショ糖ラウリン酸エステルとショ糖ステアリン酸エステルを溶媒に溶解した溶液として用いる。溶媒としては水、アルコール等が用いられるが特にこれらに限定されるものではない。取扱い上は水が好ましい。その場合、ショ糖ラウリン酸エステルとショ糖ステアリン酸エステルの溶液濃度は特に限定されることはないが0.01〜10質量%が好ましい。
【0011】

【0012】
上記の(共)重合体に用いられるスチレン系単量体にはスチレン、α−メチルスチレン、p−メチルスチレン、ビニルトルエン、t−ブチルスチレン等が挙げられ、また、スチレン系単量体と共重合可能な単量体としてはアクリル酸、アクリル酸エチル、アクリル酸メチル、アクリル酸ブチル、アクリル酸2−エチルヘキシル、アクリロニトリル、メタクリル酸、メタクリル酸エチル、メタクリル酸メチル、メタクリル酸ブチル、メタクリル酸2−エチルヘキシル、1,3−ブタジエン、2−メチル−1,3−ブタジエン(イソプレン)等が挙げられる。
【0013】
これらスチレン系単量体の単独重合体又は、スチレン系単量体の共重合体としてはスチレンを重合して得られるGP(一般用)ポリスチレンが好ましい。また、スチレン系単量体に共重合可能な単量体を共重合して得た共重合体としては、メタクリル酸−スチレン共重合体、、メタクリル酸メチル−スチレン共重合体、メタクリル酸メチル−メタクリル酸−スチレン共重合体、アクリロニトリル−スチレン共重合体、スチレン−ブタジエンブロック共重合体が好ましい。
【0014】
また、ブタジエン系ゴム存在下でスチレン系単量体及び/又はスチレン系単量体と共重合可能な単量体を重合して得た重合体を透明性を損なわない範囲で上記のスチレン系単量体を必須とする(共)重合体に混合して用いることもできる。ブタジエン系ゴムにはハイシスポリブタジエン、ローシスポリブタジエン、スチレン−ブタジエンゴム、スチレン−ブタジエンブロックゴム、スチレン−ブタジエン−スチレンブロックゴム、部分水添ポリブタジエンゴム等が挙げられる。更に、スチレン系単量体及びスチレン系単量体と共重合可能な単量体としては、前記で挙げた単量体を用いることが出来る。

【0016】
防曇剤処理液をスチレン系透明樹脂シートに処理する方法は特に限定されることはなく、簡便にはロールコーター、ナイフコーター、グラビアロールコーター等を用い塗布する方法が挙げられる。また、噴霧、浸漬等を採用することも出来る。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an antifogging styrene-based transparent resin sheet excellent in antifogging effect, sheet appearance, and storage stability of the sheet at high temperature and high humidity, and a molded product thereof. More specifically, a styrene-based transparent resin sheet widely used in the field of packaging materials and the like is provided with excellent antifogging effect, excellent sheet appearance, and excellent storage properties at high temperature and high humidity in consideration of storage in a warehouse in summer. The present invention relates to a styrene-based transparent resin sheet and a molded product thereof.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Styrene-based transparent resin sheets and their molded products are widely used as packaging and coating materials, but due to the hydrophobic nature of the surface, water that aggregates due to changes in temperature and humidity becomes minute water droplets and adheres to the surface. May occur. The fogging makes it difficult to identify stored items, which often causes a reduction in commercial value.
[0003]
To solve this problem, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 10-309785 describes that a mixture of sucrose fatty acid ester and methyl cellulose is used. It could not be said that the storage stability at the time was excellent.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention provides a styrene-based transparent resin sheet having excellent antifogging effect, sheet appearance, and excellent storage stability at high temperature and high humidity in consideration of warehouse storage in summer, and a molded article thereof, based on the above technical situation. The purpose is to do.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present inventors have conducted intensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems, and as a result, have reached the present invention by using an antifogging agent having a specific configuration. That is, in the present invention, a styrene-based transparent resin sheet is surface-treated with an anti-fogging agent containing 70 to 99% by mass of sucrose laurate and 30 to 1% by mass of sucrose stearate having an HLB of 12 or more. The object has been solved by providing a styrene-based transparent resin sheet obtained by the above method and a molded article obtained by using the sheet.
[0006]
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
The antifogging agent of the present invention essentially comprises sucrose laurate and sucrose stearate having an HLB (Hydrophile-Lipophile Balance) of 12 or more. In the sucrose laurate ester of the present invention, the ratio of the lauric acid component is 50% by mass or more, preferably 55% by mass or more, and more preferably 65% by mass or more. When sucrose laurate having a ratio as lauric acid of 50% by mass or more is used, the surface treatment properties are excellent and the antifogging effect is also excellent. Components other than lauric acid include, for example, saturated fatty acids having about 6 to 30 carbon atoms such as caproic acid, caprylic acid, lauric acid, mystic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, behenic acid, and montanic acid, lindenic acid, palmito oleic acid And unsaturated fatty acids having about 10 to 24 carbon atoms such as oleic acid, elaidic acid, isooleic acid, erucic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid. These fatty acids may be used alone or in combination.
[0007]
The sucrose stearic acid ester having an HLB of 12 or more according to the present invention has a stearic acid component ratio of 50% by mass or more, preferably 55% by mass or more, and more preferably 65% by mass or more. When sucrose stearic acid ester having a ratio of 50% by mass or more as a stearic acid component is used, the storage stability at high temperature and high humidity tends to be excellent. Other components such as palmitic acid and mystyric acid may be used alone or in combination.
[0008]
In the present invention, it is essential to use a sucrose stearic acid ester having an HLB of 12 or more, preferably an HLB of 13 or more, particularly preferably an HLB of 14 or more. If the HLB is less than 12, the solubility in water is poor. Therefore, when applying to a sheet with an aqueous solution, uniform surface treatment on the sheet surface is difficult, and coating unevenness is likely to occur. The sucrose stearic acid ester having an HLB of less than 12 can be contained, but the ratio of the HLB of 12 or more to all sucrose stearic acid esters used in this case is preferably 70% by mass or more.
[0009]
The ratio of the sucrose laurate to the sucrose stearate having an HLB of 12 or more in the antifogging agent of the present invention is as follows: sucrose laurate is 70 to 99% by mass, and sucrose stearate is 30 to 1% by mass. It is. Preferably, sucrose laurate is 75 to 97% by mass, sucrose stearate is 25 to 3% by mass, more preferably, sucrose laurate is 80 to 94% by mass, and sucrose stearate is 20 to 6% by mass. It is. If sucrose laurate is less than 70% by mass, the antifogging effect is poor. On the other hand, if the sucrose stearic acid ester is less than 1% by mass, the storage stability at high temperature and high humidity is inferior.
[0010]
When the surface of the styrene-based transparent resin sheet is treated with an antifogging agent, a solution in which sucrose laurate and sucrose stearate are dissolved in a solvent is used. As the solvent, water, alcohol, and the like are used, but the solvent is not particularly limited thereto. Water is preferred for handling. In this case, the solution concentration of sucrose laurate and sucrose stearate is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.01 to 10% by mass.
[0011]
The styrene-based transparent resin sheet used for the anti-fogging styrene-based transparent resin sheet of the present invention is a sheet before being treated with an anti-fogging agent obtained by molding and processing a styrene-based transparent resin. Styrene-based transparent resins include homopolymers of styrene-based monomers, copolymers of styrene-based monomers, and copolymers obtained by copolymerizing monomers copolymerizable with styrene-based monomers. And mixtures thereof.
[0012]
The styrene-based monomer used in the (co) polymer includes styrene, α-methylstyrene, p-methylstyrene, vinyltoluene, t-butylstyrene, and the like. Polymerizable monomers include acrylic acid, ethyl acrylate, methyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, acrylonitrile, methacrylic acid, ethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, and 2-methacrylic acid. Examples include ethylhexyl, 1,3-butadiene, and 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene (isoprene).
[0013]
As the homopolymer of these styrene monomers or the copolymer of styrene monomers, GP (general use) polystyrene obtained by polymerizing styrene is preferable. Examples of the copolymer obtained by copolymerizing a monomer copolymerizable with a styrene monomer include methacrylic acid-styrene copolymer, methyl methacrylate-styrene copolymer, and methyl methacrylate- Methacrylic acid-styrene copolymer, acrylonitrile-styrene copolymer, and styrene-butadiene block copolymer are preferred.
[0014]
Further, a polymer obtained by polymerizing a styrene monomer and / or a monomer copolymerizable with a styrene monomer in the presence of a butadiene rubber may be used as a styrene monomer as long as the transparency is not impaired. It is also possible to use a mixture with a (co) polymer in which a monomer is essential. Butadiene rubbers include high cis polybutadiene, low cis polybutadiene, styrene-butadiene rubber, styrene-butadiene block rubber, styrene-butadiene-styrene block rubber, partially hydrogenated polybutadiene rubber, and the like. Further, as the styrene monomer and the monomer copolymerizable with the styrene monomer, the above-mentioned monomers can be used.
In addition, at least one kind of monomer or butadiene rubber used for polymerization can be used. As a polymer that can be mixed within a range that does not impair the transparency, rubber-modified impact-resistant polystyrene (HIPS) is preferable.
[0015]
The method for processing the styrene-based transparent resin into a sheet is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include ordinary methods such as a uniaxial stretching method, a biaxial stretching method, a multiaxial stretching method, a coextrusion method, and a lamination method. Further, in order to perform the antifogging treatment on the sheet, it is preferable that the surface of the sheet is modified by a corona discharge treatment method, an ozone treatment method, a plasma treatment method or the like.
[0016]
The method of treating the antifoggant treatment liquid into a styrene-based transparent resin sheet is not particularly limited, and a simple method of applying using a roll coater, a knife coater, a gravure roll coater, or the like is exemplified. Further, spraying, immersion and the like can also be adopted.
