Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】本発明は、フィルム基材用感圧性接着剤、紙基材用感圧接着剤のラベル、シートの用途で使用されるエマルション型粘着剤組成物に関し、詳しくは経時安定性と耐水性に優れたエマルション型粘着剤組成物に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】従来、塗料、粘着剤、感圧接着剤等の分野においては、有機溶剤型樹脂組成物が多く用いられてきた。しかし、近年安全性や衛生性の面から水性への要求が高まってきている。しかし、有機溶剤型に比べ水性のものは、耐水性等が不十分であることが多い。すなわち、水性樹脂組成物の多くは、乳化重合で作られるが、この場合乳化剤を用いることが多く、塗料塗膜や成膜した粘着剤中(以下、まとめて成膜物という。)に存在するこの乳化剤によって耐水性が損なわれやすいという問題点があった。
【0003】水性樹脂組成物からなる成膜物の耐水性を向上させるために、乳化剤量を減らしたり、反応性乳化剤を用いたり、あるいは水性エマルジョンの平均粒子径(以下粒子径とする)を小さくしたりする試みが検討されている。粒子径を小さくして耐水性を向上させる方法の具体的な例として特許文献1、特許文献2および特許文献3が知られている。
【0004】乳化剤を低減することは耐水性に対し、一応の効果は認められるが、乳化重合時の系の安定性・安全性・生産性等、また製造後の水性エマルションの貯蔵安定性等を考慮すると、一概に乳化剤量を低減することはできない。ラジカル重合性界面活性剤を用いた系は一定の耐水性の効果はあるが、これだけでは有機溶剤型に匹敵するレベルには達しない。そこで耐水性を保持するためにエマルションの粒子径をコントロール(小さく)し、エマルションが様々な基材へ塗布され成膜する際の成膜性を向上する方法が取られている。
【0005】一般的に粘着剤分野では塗工時のハジキ等の塗工欠陥を防止するために増粘剤等を用い塗工機械に合わせた適性粘度に粘度調整した物を材料として用いる。水性エマルションの耐水性向上のために粒子径を小さく調整したものは耐水性の効果は見られるものの、経時で粘度が変化し適性粘度領域を外れてしまい、塗工欠陥を生じるという問題点がある。特に粒子径を0.3μm以下に設定した系ではこの傾向が多く見られる。
粘着剤のpH調整や予め熱経時しておくという方法が提案されているが、粒子径を小さくし耐水性が良好で且つ経時安定性に優れた水性エマルション型粘着剤を提供することは出来なかった。

更に本発明はエマルション型アクリル系組成物の平均粒子径が0.3μm以下である上記エマルション型粘着剤組成物である。
更に本発明は更に増粘剤を含有する上記エマルション型粘着剤組成物である。
更に本発明は基材もしくはセパレーターに上記エマルション型粘着剤組成物を塗工してなる粘着剤塗工物である。

本発明における(メタ)アクリル酸エステルとしては、(メタ)アクリル酸メチル、(メタ)アクリル酸エチル、(メタ)アクリル酸n−ブチル、(メタ)アクリル酸イソブチル、(メタ)アクリル酸ラウリル、(メタ)アクリル酸2−エチルヘキシル、(メタ)アクリル酸n−オクチル、(メタ)アクリル酸n−アミル、(メタ)アクリル酸イソアミルなどの(メタ)アクリル酸アルキルエステルがあり、これらはエチレン性不飽和単量体中80〜99重量%が使用される。その他の(メタ)アクリル酸エステルとしてβヒドロキシエチル(メタ)アクリレート、βヒドロキシプロピル(メタ)アクリレート、3−クロロ−2−ヒドロキシプロピルメタアクリレート、トリエチレングリコールモノメタアクリレートなどのヒドロキシル基を有する(メタ)アクリル酸エステルが挙げられる。
【0010】本発明におけるエチレン性不飽和単量体としてはスチレン、酢酸ビニル、アクリロニトリル等、(メタ)アクリル酸、クロトン酸、イタコン酸、マレイン酸、フマール酸などのα、β不飽和カルボン酸、グリシジル(メタ)アクリレート等のエポキシ基含有不飽和単量体、ダイアセトンアクリルアミド等のカルボニル基含有不飽和単量体、N−メチロール(メタ)アクリルアマイド等のメチロール基含有不飽和単量体、γ―メタクリロキシプロピルトリメトキシシランやγ―メタクリロキシプロピルトリエトキシシラン、ジビニルベンゼンやエチレングリコールジメタクリレート等が挙げられる。
【0011】本発明におけるラジカル重合性界面活性剤としては下記一般式(1)〜(4)に示す構造を有するものが知られている。

Figure 2004285138
【0012】これらのラジカル重合性界面活性剤はアデカリアソープSE−10N(旭電化工業社製):一般式(1)、アクアロンHS−10(第一工業製薬社製):一般式(2)、アデカリアソープSR−10N(旭電化工業社製):一般式(3)、アクアロンKH−10(第一工業製薬社製):一般式(4)等が挙げられる。その他としてラテムルS−180A(花王社製)、ラテムルS−180(花王社製)、ラテムルPD−104(花王社製)、アクアロンRN−20(第一工業製薬社製)、アントックスNA−16(日本乳化剤社製)等として入手できる。ラジカル重合性界面活性剤の使用量としてはエチレン性不飽和単量体100重量%に対して0.1〜5重量%用いられる。0.1重量%以下では安定なエマルションを得ることができず、また5重量%以上では耐水性や重合性に影響を及ぼす。また、耐水性やその他の接着物性を損なわない範囲で、公知である通常のアニオン、ノニオン性の非反応性乳化剤を併用して使用することも可能である。
【0013】本発明の重合はエマルション重合の公知の方法が用いることができる。開始剤種類、反応温度、反応濃度等、通常のエマルション重合の方法が用いられ、特に制限は無い。
【0014】本発明の低級アルキル基で置換されてもよい尿素もしくはチオ尿素の低級アルキル基は炭素数1〜4のアルキル基であり、具体的には尿素、トリメチル尿素、テトラメチル尿素、チオ尿素、トリメチルチオ尿素等が挙げられる。低級アルキル基で置換されてもよい尿素もしくはチオ尿素の使用量としてはエチレン性不飽和単量体100重量%に対して0.001〜5重量%、好ましくは0.01〜1重量%である。0.001%以下では目的とする経時安定性が得られない。5重量%以上では耐水性や接着物性に影響を及ぼす。
【0015】低級アルキル基で置換されてもよい尿素もしくはチオ尿素を添加する時期としては、エマルション重合時でも重合後のブレンド工程でもよい。作業性を考えると重合後のブレンド工程で各種添加剤と同様に添加する方が望ましい。ブレンド工程とはエマルション型粘着剤を形成するに必要な各種添加剤を重合後のエマルションに必要に応じて添加する工程である。
【0016】本発明におけるエマルション型アクリル組成物中のエマルションの平均粒子径は0.3μm以下が望ましい。0.3μm以上のエマルションであっても経時粘度変化を抑制する効果はあるが、粒子径が0.3μm以上のエマルションでは経時による粒子同士の吸着による経時粘度変化が比較的起こりにくい。粒子径が0.3μm以下のエマルションでは粒子同士の吸着による経時減粘や、増粘剤の増粘構造の破壊による粘度変化が見られる。
【0017】本発明では必要に応じて消泡剤、防腐剤、レベリング剤、増粘剤、架橋剤、粘着付与剤等の各種添加剤を併用する事ができる。
【0018】本発明のエマルション型粘着剤組成物を塗工してなる粘着剤塗工物はコンマコーター、リバースコーター、スロットダイコーター、リップコーター等のコーティング方式により基材への直接塗工法や、セパレーターへ塗工した後基材を貼り合わせる転写塗工法などにより得ることができる。この場合、エマルション型粘着剤組成物を塗工してなる粘着剤塗工物における粘着剤の塗工量は乾燥重量で5〜30g/mが適当である。基材としてはポリエステル、ポリプロピレン、塩化ビニルなどのフィルム状基材もしくは上質紙、アート紙、コート紙などの紙基材が挙げられる。塗工、乾燥、貼り合わせた後は本発明のエマルション型粘着剤組成物を含む粘着シートもしくは粘着テープとして使用することができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an emulsion-type pressure-sensitive adhesive composition for use as a pressure-sensitive adhesive for a film base, a label for a pressure-sensitive adhesive for a paper base, and a sheet. The present invention relates to an emulsion-type pressure-sensitive adhesive composition excellent in water resistance and water resistance.
[0002]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in the fields of paints, pressure-sensitive adhesives and pressure-sensitive adhesives, organic solvent-type resin compositions have been widely used. However, in recent years, the demand for water based on safety and hygiene has been increasing. However, aqueous materials are often insufficient in water resistance and the like as compared with organic solvent types. That is, most of the aqueous resin composition is made by emulsion polymerization. In this case, an emulsifier is often used, and is present in a paint film or a formed pressure-sensitive adhesive (hereinafter, collectively referred to as a film). There was a problem that water resistance was easily impaired by this emulsifier.
In order to improve the water resistance of a film formed from an aqueous resin composition, the amount of an emulsifier is reduced, a reactive emulsifier is used, or the average particle size of the aqueous emulsion (hereinafter referred to as the particle size) is reduced. Or attempts to do so are being considered. Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and Patent Document 3 are known as specific examples of a method for improving the water resistance by reducing the particle diameter.
[0004] Although reducing the amount of emulsifier has a certain effect on water resistance, it has been found that the stability, safety and productivity of the system during emulsion polymerization and the storage stability of the aqueous emulsion after production are reduced. Considering this, the amount of emulsifier cannot be reduced unconditionally. The system using the radical polymerizable surfactant has a certain water resistance effect, but does not reach a level comparable to that of the organic solvent type alone. In order to maintain water resistance, a method has been adopted in which the particle size of the emulsion is controlled (small) to improve the film forming property when the emulsion is applied to various substrates to form a film.
In general, in the field of pressure-sensitive adhesives, in order to prevent coating defects such as cissing during coating, a material whose viscosity is adjusted to an appropriate viscosity suitable for a coating machine by using a thickener or the like is used as a material. A water-based emulsion in which the particle size is adjusted small to improve the water resistance has a problem that although the effect of water resistance can be seen, the viscosity changes with time and the viscosity is out of the proper viscosity range, resulting in a coating defect. . In particular, this tendency is often observed in a system in which the particle diameter is set to 0.3 μm or less.
Although a method of adjusting the pH of the pressure-sensitive adhesive or preheating with time has been proposed, it has not been possible to provide a water-based emulsion-type pressure-sensitive adhesive having a small particle diameter, good water resistance, and excellent stability over time.

The amount of urea or thiourea which may be substituted with a lower alkyl group is 0.001 to 5% by weight, preferably 0.01 to 1% by weight, based on 100% by weight of the ethylenically unsaturated monomer. . If the content is less than 0.001%, the desired temporal stability cannot be obtained. If the content is 5% by weight or more, it affects water resistance and adhesive properties.
The urea or thiourea which may be substituted with a lower alkyl group may be added at the time of emulsion polymerization or at the blending step after polymerization. Considering workability, it is desirable to add the same as various additives in the blending step after polymerization. The blending step is a step of adding various additives necessary for forming an emulsion-type pressure-sensitive adhesive to the emulsion after polymerization as necessary.
The average particle size of the emulsion in the emulsion type acrylic composition of the present invention is desirably 0.3 μm or less. An emulsion having a particle diameter of 0.3 μm or more has an effect of suppressing a change in viscosity over time, but an emulsion having a particle diameter of 0.3 μm or more hardly causes a change in viscosity with time due to adsorption of particles over time. In an emulsion having a particle diameter of 0.3 μm or less, a time-dependent decrease in viscosity due to adsorption between particles and a change in viscosity due to the destruction of the thickening structure of the thickener are observed.
In the present invention, if necessary, various additives such as an antifoaming agent, a preservative, a leveling agent, a thickener, a crosslinking agent and a tackifier can be used in combination.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive coated product obtained by coating the emulsion-type pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of the present invention can be directly coated on a substrate by a coating method such as a comma coater, a reverse coater, a slot die coater, or a lip coater. It can be obtained by a transfer coating method in which a base material is applied after being applied to a separator, or the like. In this case, the coating amount of the pressure-sensitive adhesive in the pressure-sensitive adhesive coated product obtained by coating the emulsion-type pressure-sensitive adhesive composition is appropriately 5 to 30 g / m 2 in terms of dry weight. Examples of the substrate include film substrates such as polyester, polypropylene, and vinyl chloride, and paper substrates such as high-quality paper, art paper, and coated paper. After coating, drying and laminating, it can be used as a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet or pressure-sensitive adhesive tape containing the emulsion-type pressure-sensitive adhesive composition of the present invention.
In order to explain the present invention in more detail below, examples and comparative examples are shown below.
