Description

  The present invention relates to a decorative sheet having a visual unevenness and having a sense of depth and excellent design, and a decorative board using the decorative sheet.

  Conventionally, as a surface decoration material for furniture, cabinets, tables, desks, etc., on the surface of a decorative board substrate such as a wooden substrate, an inorganic substrate, a synthetic resin substrate, a metal substrate, for example, A decorative sheet is used in which a decorative sheet printed with a wood grain pattern or the like is attached with an adhesive. The decorative sheet used for such a decorative plate is required to have flexibility, machinability, etc. as post-processing suitability, and weather resistance, heat resistance, water resistance, stain resistance, scratch resistance as use suitability. Various aptitudes such as wear resistance are required and are configured to satisfy these aptitudes.

  In addition, due to consumer demand for luxury goods in recent years, furniture, cabinets, tables, desks, etc. have been required to have a high-class feeling, and there is a demand for an appearance that gives a high-class feeling. Various proposals have been made.

  For example, an area having different wettability with respect to an electron beam curable paint or light curable paint is formed by an application surface provided in a pattern on a substrate, and then an electron beam curable paint or light is formed. A decorative sheet has been proposed in which a curable paint is applied, the surface of the paint is depressed in an area that is easily wetted with the paint, and the surface of the paint is raised in an area that is difficult to wet (for example, patent documents) 1). However, this decorative sheet is easily wetted, i.e., when the concave portion is fine, the concave portion cannot be expressed and the boundary between the concave portion and the convex portion is rounded by the surface tension of the paint. There is a problem that sharp unevenness cannot be obtained.

  Moreover, if another one is illustrated, two types of pattern layers, a pattern layer made of normal ink and a convex pattern layer made of an electron beam curable composition, are sequentially provided on the base material, A cosmetic material has been proposed in which a transparent resin layer is coated, and after the coating, an electron beam is irradiated through the transparent resin layer to cure the convex pattern to express a sense of unevenness (for example, see Patent Document 2). However, since this decorative material has relatively large irregularities physically, there is a problem that the convex portion is easily damaged, and particularly when the area of the convex portion is large, it becomes prominent. Furthermore, this decorative material is, for example, when it is desired to express the strength of luster such as a wood grain pattern, that is, when a concave portion with a very narrow width is present, as in the case of a wood grain conduit groove. There is a problem that the desired design cannot be stably obtained because the concave portion is filled by the flow of the coating material constituting the transparent resin layer, and the degree of filling varies.

  As another example, after applying a synthetic resin that performs radiation polymerization to a substrate with printed paper or decorative paper, irradiation is stopped when the synthetic resin is in a semi-cured state. Then, after pressing with a cold press body such as a roll press having a concavo-convex pattern, a decorative board is proposed that expresses the concavo-convex feeling by completely curing the synthetic resin (see, for example, Patent Document 3). . However, in this decorative board, it is not easy to specify the curing conditions when the resin is stably made into a certain semi-cured state, and the synthetic resin in the semi-cured state is unstable and the curing is performed in two stages. There is a problem that it is cumbersome to carry out separately.

  As another example, an electron beam curable resin is applied on a base material using a coating apparatus, and contacted with a mold roll in an electron beam irradiator to mold the unevenness of the mold roll. However, there has been proposed a cosmetic material that expresses a feeling of unevenness by irradiating and curing an electron beam (for example, see Patent Document 4). However, this decorative material requires a special mold roll device, the problem that it is not possible to mold the unevenness with a normal printing device, the problem is that the molding speed by the mold roll is limited, and the productivity is low There is.

As another example, the surface of the substrate has a coating layer, a pattern layer, and a surface protective layer obtained by crosslinking and curing the ionizing radiation curable resin composition, and the pattern layer is compared with the coating layer. And the cosmetics which comprised highly the permeability of the ionizing radiation-curable resin composition are proposed (for example, refer patent document 5). Since this ionizing radiation curable resin composition is more easily penetrated into the part where the pattern exists, this decorative material is formed with a concave portion in the part, and a cosmetic material expressing a feeling of unevenness on the surface is obtained. If a large amount of extender pigment or porous material is added to give sufficient absorption permeability to the pattern layer, the recesses become porous or brittle, which decreases the durability and stain resistance of the recesses. In order to improve the durability and contamination resistance of the recesses, there is a problem that the recesses having sufficient depth and sharpness cannot be formed if the pattern layer is made porous.
Japanese Patent Publication No. 51-26937 Japanese Patent Publication No. 01-41505 Japanese Patent Publication No.49-28264 Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 63-50066 JP 2001-199028 A

  Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and the object of the present invention is that it is excellent in resistance at the time of use such as contamination resistance, weather resistance adhesion, wear resistance, etc. The present invention provides a decorative sheet that has both a feeling of unevenness and a feeling of depth that are recognized as recesses, and is excellent in design, in particular, where the recesses that are visually recognized are more clearly recognized as recesses.

  Next, various materials constituting the decorative sheet 1, 1 'will be described. First, as the resin constituting the synthetic resin transparent substrate layer 2 and the synthetic resin colored layer 2 ′, it is excellent in processability and does not generate harmful gas during combustion. (Including linear low density polyethylene), medium density polyethylene, high density polyethylene, ethylene alpha olefin copolymer, homopolypropylene, polymethylpentene, polybutene, ethylene-propylene copolymer, propylene-butene copolymer, ethylene-acetic acid Olefin-based thermoplastic resins such as vinyl copolymer, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, or mixtures thereof, polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, polyethylene naphthalate-isophthalate copolymer, polycarbonate, polyary Thermoplastic ester resins such as polyester, acrylic thermoplastic resins such as polymethyl methacrylate, polyethyl methacrylate, polyethyl acrylate, and polybutyl acrylate; polyamide-based heat such as nylon-6 and nylon-66 Non-halogen thermoplastic resins such as a plastic resin, polyimide, polyurethane, polystyrene, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resin, and the like can be given. These thermoplastic resins may be used singly or as a mixture of two or more. However, since the design print layer 6 and the recessed pattern 7 are provided as a design, their suitability is required. In view of the fact that no harmful gas is generated at the time of combustion, which has become a problem in recent years, or cost is considered comprehensively, an olefin-based thermoplastic resin is preferable. The synthetic resin transparent substrate layer 2 may be translucent, colored transparent or translucent, and the synthetic resin colored layer 2 ′ may be colored. It may be transparent, translucent or opaque (having concealment), or may be an uncolored uncolored layer.

  Further, the synthetic resin-made transparent base material layer 2 and the synthetic resin-made colored layer 2 ′ may be in an unstretched state or in a state of being stretched in a uniaxial or biaxial direction. Two or more layers may be laminated, and various configurations can be taken as appropriate, but the thickness is generally about 30 to 300 μm. In addition, these layers 2 and 2 'may be subjected to a known easy adhesion treatment such as corona discharge treatment, plasma treatment, ozone treatment, etc. on a necessary surface as necessary. In addition, these layers 2 and 2 'may be appropriately added with known additives such as an antioxidant, a light stabilizer, and an ultraviolet ray inhibitor.

  The picture print layer 6 can be formed using ink by a known printing method such as a gravure printing method, an offset printing method, a silk screen printing method, or the like. Examples of the pattern print layer 61 include a wood grain pattern, a stone pattern, a cloth pattern, a skin pattern, a geometric pattern, characters, symbols, line drawings, and various abstract pattern patterns. Solid-printed with colored ink having concealability. 1 and 2, the pattern printing layer 6 is provided with both the pattern printing layer 61 and the solid pattern printing layer 62, but either one of the structures is provided. Is also good.

  Examples of the ink for forming the pattern printing layer 6 include chlorinated polyolefins such as chlorinated polyethylene and chlorinated polypropylene as a vehicle, polyester, polyurethane composed of isocyanate and polyol, polyacryl, polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl chloride, and vinyl chloride. -A mixture of one or more vinyl acetate copolymers, cellulose resins, polyamide resins, etc. can be used, and inks can be used by adding pigments, solvents, various auxiliary agents, etc. In consideration of the problem, a non-chlorine vehicle in which one or two or more types such as polyester, polyurethane composed of isocyanate and polyol, polyacryl, polyvinyl acetate, cellulose resin, and polyamide resin are mixed is suitable, and more preferable. Is polyester, isocyanate and polio Polyurethane consisting Le, polyacrylic, to one without such a polyamide resin is a mixture of two or more.

  Next, the patterned low gloss print layer 4 will be described. The patterned low-gloss printing layer 4 is a region (low-gloss region) where the region provided with this layer is less glossy than the other regions. Although this mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated, when the uncured material of the surface-protective layer 5 made of the curable resin provided on the surface and the patterned low-gloss printed layer 4 is applied, It is presumed that the resin component of the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4 and the uncured product of the surface protective layer 5 exhibit some interactions such as elution, dispersion, and mixing depending on the combination of materials and application conditions. Is done. That is, the respective resin components in the uncured product of the curable resin that forms the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4 and the surface protective layer 5 are suspended without being completely compatible in a short time. It is considered that the portion present on or near the patterned low-gloss print layer 4 and in the suspended state scatters light to form a low-gloss region. Since the surface protective layer 5 is formed by crosslinking and curing while maintaining this suspended state, the region on the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4 in the surface protective layer 5 is at least a low-gloss region. By the illusion of, it is assumed that the area is recognized as if it were a recess. Further, depending on the type and application conditions of the ink for forming the patterned low gloss printing layer 4 and the curable resin composition for forming the surface protective layer 5, the outermost surface of the surface protective layer 5 may be In some cases, the glossy printed layer 4 is raised to form a convex shape. Since the surface of the surface protective layer 5 has such a convex shape, light is also scattered at this portion, which is preferable because the visual unevenness is further emphasized. In addition, about the height of the said convex shape, it is preferable that it is the height which is the range which has the effect of this invention, and is usually the range of 2-3 micrometers.

  The ink that forms the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4 has a property of causing interaction with the curable resin composition (uncured curable resin) that forms the surface protective layer 5, and is curable. It is appropriately selected in relation to the resin composition (uncured curable resin). Specifically, the ink vehicle preferably contains 50% by weight or more of a urethane resin or a polyvinyl acetal resin. The urethane-based resin is a polyol component such as an acrylic polyol, a polyester polyol, or a polyether polyol, and an isocyanate component such as an aromatic isocyanate such as tolylene diisocyanate, xylene diisocyanate, or diphenylmethane diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, Examples include urethane resins obtained by reacting with aliphatic or cycloaliphatic isocyanates such as hydrogenated tolylene diisocyanate (linearly cross-linked or network cross-linked). be able to. Moreover, a polyvinyl acetal type resin is obtained by condensation (acetalization) of polyvinyl alcohol and aldehydes. Examples of the polyvinyl acetal resin include polyvinyl formal (formal resin), polyvinyl acetoacetal, polyvinyl propional, polyvinyl butyral (butyral resin), and polyvinyl hexyl.

  Further, the ink for forming the patterned low gloss printing layer 4 may be uncolored, but by coloring with a pigment, the concave portion becomes clearer and visually superior in unevenness and depth. It can be set as the decorative sheet which has the design effect. As the pigment to be colored, an organic pigment is preferable because it is superior in transparency to an inorganic pigment and can express a sense of depth. The organic pigment may be a single color or a mixed color composed of two or more. As the organic pigment, a known pigment having good weather resistance can be used, and the color (pigment) to be used depending on the pattern of the picture printing layer 6 and the amount of addition can be appropriately determined.

  If necessary, unsaturated polyester resin, acrylic resin, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer may be used to adjust the degree of expression of the low gloss region and the contrast of the gloss difference between the low gloss region and its surroundings. Alternatively, a gloss adjusting resin such as a urethane resin obtained by reacting a polyol component and an isocyanate component may be mixed and used. The mixing ratio of the gloss adjusting resin is in the range of 10 to 90% by weight with respect to the total amount of the vehicle. If it is within this range, a sufficient enhancement effect of low gloss area expression can be obtained.

  In the present invention, the surface protective layer 5 is provided on the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4, and the surface-protecting layer 5 is formed with ink containing fine particles constituting the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4. Also by the interaction with the curable resin composition (uncured curable resin), the region on the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4 becomes at least a low-gloss region, and the region is a recess due to the illusion of eyes. It is recognized as if. The thickness of the patterned low gloss printing layer 4 is suitably 0.5 μm or more and 5.0 μm or less in consideration of printability and interaction with the curable resin composition (uncured curable resin). .

  In addition, extender pigments are preferred as the fine particles to be blended in the printing ink that forms the patterned low gloss printing layer 4. By blending the extender, light scattering can be promoted and a low gloss effect can be exhibited. The extender pigment is not particularly limited, and is suitably selected from, for example, silica, talc, clay, barium sulfate, barium carbonate, calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate and the like. Among these, silica, which is a material having a high degree of freedom in material design such as oil absorption, particle size, pore volume, etc., and excellent in designability, whiteness, and coating stability as an ink, is preferable. Silica is preferred.

  The average particle diameter of silica may be determined in relation to the film thickness (μm) of the patterned low gloss printing layer 4 and is generally 1.0 μm or more, and the maximum particle diameter is the surface The thickness of the protective layer 5 should be determined in relation to the film thickness (μm), but the film thickness of the surface protective layer 5 takes into consideration various physical properties required for a decorative sheet (post-processing suitability and proper use) and cost. It is generally 10.0 μm or less, preferably 7.0 μm or less, and the optimum range of the average particle diameter is 2.0 μm or more and 4.0 μm or less. The amount of the extender pigment added to the ink for forming the patterned low gloss print layer 4 is suitably 5 to 15 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the ink composition other than the extender pigment. If the amount is less than 5 parts by weight, sufficient thixotropy cannot be imparted to the printing ink composition forming the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4, and if it exceeds 15 parts by weight, the effect of imparting low gloss is reduced. Therefore, it is not preferable.

  Next, the surface protective layer 5 will be described. This surface protective layer 5 is provided for imparting surface physical properties such as scratch resistance, abrasion resistance, stain resistance, water resistance, and weather resistance required for the decorative sheet 1, 1 ′ (see FIGS. 1 and 2). As the resin for forming the surface protective layer 5, it is appropriate to use a curable resin such as a thermosetting resin or an ionizing radiation curable resin. It is an ionizing radiation curable resin because it is hard and has excellent productivity.

As thermosetting resins, unsaturated polyester resins, polyurethane resins (including two-component curable polyurethane), epoxy resins, amino alkyd resins, phenol resins, urea resins, diallyl phthalate resins, melamine resins, guanamine resins, melamine-ureas Examples thereof include a cocondensation resin, a silicon resin, and a polysiloxane resin. If necessary, a curing agent such as a crosslinking agent or a polymerization initiator, or a polymerization accelerator is added to the resin. For example, as a curing agent, isocyanate or organic sulfonate is added to unsaturated polyester resin or polyurethane resin, organic amine is added to epoxy resin, peroxide such as methyl ethyl ketone peroxide, azoisobutyl nitrile, etc. The radical initiator is added to the unsaturated polyester resin. As a method of forming the surface protective layer with the thermosetting resin, for example, the above thermosetting resin is made into a solution, applied by a known coating method such as a roll coating method or a gravure coating method, dried and cured. Can be formed. The coating amount of the surface protective layer is suitably about 1 to ²⁰ g / m ^{2 in} terms of solid content, and in particular, the film thickness of the patterned low gloss printing layer is 0.5 μm or more and 5.0 μm or less, When the average particle size is 1.0 μm or more and 7.0 μm or less, ² to 10 g / m ² in terms of solid content is appropriate.

  Next, the ionizing radiation curable resin will be described. The ionizing radiation curable resin is a resin that undergoes a cross-linking polymerization reaction upon irradiation with ionizing radiation and changes to a three-dimensional polymer structure. The ionizing radiation means an electromagnetic wave or charged particle beam having an energy quantum capable of polymerizing and cross-linking molecules, such as visible light, ultraviolet light (near ultraviolet light, vacuum ultraviolet light, etc.), X-ray, electron beam, ion beam, etc. is there. Usually, ultraviolet rays or electron beams are used. As the ultraviolet ray source, a light source such as an ultra high pressure mercury lamp, a high pressure mercury lamp, a low pressure mercury lamp, a carbon arc lamp, a black light fluorescent lamp, or a metal halide lamp can be used. As the wavelength of the ultraviolet light, a wavelength range of 190 to 380 nm can be used. As the electron beam source, various electron beam accelerators such as a cockcroft-wald type, a bandegraft type, a resonant transformer type, an insulated core transformer type, a linear type, a dynamitron type, and a high frequency type can be used. The electron beam used is 100 to 1000 keV, preferably 100 to 300 keV. The irradiation amount of the electron beam is usually about 2 to 15 Mrad.

  As the ionizing radiation curable resin, a monomer having a radically polymerizable unsaturated group such as (meth) acryloyl group or (meth) acryloyloxy group or a cationically polymerizable functional group such as epoxy group in the molecule, It consists of a polymer or polymer. These monomers, prepolymers or polymers are used alone or in combination. In this specification, (meth) acrylate is used in the meaning of acrylate or methacrylate. The ionizing radiation means an electromagnetic wave or charged particle beam having an energy quantum capable of polymerizing or cross-linking molecules, and is usually an ultraviolet ray or an electron beam.

  Examples of the prepolymer having a radical polymerizable unsaturated group include polyester (meth) acrylate, urethane (meth) acrylate, epoxy (meth) acrylate, melamine (meth) acrylate, triazine (meth) acrylate, and polyvinylpyrrolidone. This prepolymer usually has a molecular weight of about 10,000 or less. When the molecular weight exceeds 10,000, the cured resin layer has insufficient surface properties such as scratch resistance, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, and heat resistance. The acrylate and methacrylate can be used in common, but the acrylate is more advantageous for the purpose of curing efficiently at a high speed and in a short time because the acrylate is faster in terms of the crosslinking curing rate with ionizing radiation. .

  Examples of the prepolymer having a cationically polymerizable functional group include epoxy resins such as bisphenol type epoxy resins, novolac type epoxy resins, and alicyclic epoxy resins, aliphatic vinyl ethers, aromatic vinyl ethers, urethane vinyl ethers, and ester vinyl ethers. And prepolymers such as vinyl ether resins, cyclic ether compounds, and spiro compounds.

  Examples of monomers having a radically polymerizable unsaturated group include (meth) acrylate compound monofunctional monomers such as methyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl (meth) acrylate, butyl (meth) acrylate, methoxyethyl ( (Meth) acrylate, methoxybutyl (meth) acrylate, butoxyethyl (meth) acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth) acrylate, N, N-dimethylaminomethyl (meth) acrylate, N, N-dimethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate, N , N-diethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate, N, N-diethylaminopropyl (meth) acrylate, N, N-dibenzylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate, lauryl (meth) acrylate, isobornyl (meth) acrylate, ethyl carbitol ( Me ) Acrylate, phenoxyethyl (meth) acrylate, phenoxypolyethylene glycol (meth) acrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl (meth) acrylate, methoxypropylene glycol (meth) acrylate, 2- (meth) acryloyloxyethyl-2-hydroxypropyl phthalate, 2 -(Meth) acryloyloxypropyl hydrogen terephthalate and the like.

  As the monomer having a cationic polymerizable functional group, a prepolymer monomer having the cationic polymerizable functional group can be used.

  When the above-mentioned ionizing radiation curable resin is cured by irradiating with ultraviolet rays, a photopolymerization initiator is added as a sensitizer. In the case of a resin system having a radically polymerizable unsaturated group, photoinitiators are acetophenones, benzophenones, thioxanthones, benzoin, benzoin, benzoin methyl ether, Michler benzoylbenzoate, Michler ketone, diphenyl sulfide, dibenzyl disulfide , Diethyl oxide, triphenylbiimidazole, isopropyl-N, N-dimethylaminobenzoate and the like can be used alone or in combination. In the case of a resin system having a cationically polymerizable functional group, an aromatic diazonium salt, an aromatic sulfonium salt, a metallocene compound, a benzoin sulfonate ester, a freeloxyxonium diallyl iodosyl salt, etc., should be used alone or as a mixture. Can do. In addition, generally the addition amount of these photoinitiators is about 0.1-10 weight part with respect to 100 weight part of ionizing radiation curable resins. The application method and application amount of the ionizing radiation curable resin are the same as those of the thermosetting resin, and the description thereof is omitted.

  When the surface protective layer 5 is given further scratch resistance and wear resistance, for example, inorganic particles such as α-alumina, silica, kaolinite, iron oxide, diamond, silicon carbide, etc. Is mentioned. Examples of the particle shape include a spherical shape, an elliptical shape, a polyhedral shape, a scale shape, and the like. Although there is no particular limitation, a spherical shape is preferable. Examples of the organic substance include synthetic resin beads such as a cross-linked acrylic resin and a polycarbonate resin. The particle size is usually about 3 to 200% of the film thickness. Among these, spherical α-alumina is particularly preferable because it has high hardness and a large effect on improving wear resistance, and it is relatively easy to obtain spherical particles. The blending ratio of the fine particles to the curable resin forming the surface protective layer 5 is 1 to 80 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the curable resin.

  The surface protective layer 5 may be made of, for example, a well-known organic ultraviolet absorber such as benzotriazole, benzophenone, or triazine, or titanium dioxide having an average particle size of about 5 to 120 nm, depending on required physical properties. Inorganic ultraviolet absorbers such as cerium oxide and zinc oxide, known light stabilizers such as hindered amines, or known additives such as antistatic agents and leveling agents can be added.

  Next, the primer layers 3, 3 'will be described. The primer layer 3 is provided for the purpose of improving the adhesive strength between the synthetic resin transparent substrate layer 2 and the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4 or the surface protective layer 5, and the primer layer 3 ' It is provided for the purpose of improving the adhesive strength between the synthetic resin colored layer 2 ′ and the picture print layer 6. In particular, when the synthetic resin-made transparent base material layer 2 and the synthetic resin-made colored layer 2 ′ are olefin-based thermoplastic resins, the patterned low-gloss printing layer 4 or the surface protective layer 5 and the pattern printing layer are used. In order to improve the adhesive strength with 6, it is desirable to provide the primer layers 3, 3 ′. Examples of the resin used for the primer layers 3 and 3 ′ include ester resins, urethane resins, acrylic resins, polycarbonate resins, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymers, polyvinyl butyral resins, nitrocellulose resins, and the like. Can be used alone or mixed to form a coating composition or ink composition, which can be formed using an appropriate coating means such as a roll coating method or a gravure printing method.

  However, the primer layers 3, 3 'are particularly preferably formed of a resin comprising (i) a copolymer of an acrylic resin and a urethane resin and (ii) an isocyanate. That is, the copolymer of (i) an acrylic resin and a urethane resin comprises an acrylic polymer component having a hydroxyl group at the terminal (component A), a polyester polyol component having a hydroxyl group at both ends (component B), and a diisocyanate component (component). C) is mixed and reacted to form a prepolymer, and a chain extender (component D) such as diamine is further added to the prepolymer to extend the chain. By this reaction, polyester urethane is formed and an acrylic polymer component is introduced into the molecule to form an acrylic-polyester urethane copolymer having a hydroxyl group at the terminal. This acrylic-polyester urethane copolymer is formed by reacting the terminal hydroxyl group with the isocyanate of (ii) and curing it.

  As the component A, a linear acrylate polymer having a hydroxyl group at the terminal is used. Specifically, linear polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) having a hydroxyl group at the terminal is preferable because it is excellent in weather resistance (particularly the property against photodegradation) and can be easily copolymerized with urethane. . The component A is an acrylic resin component in the copolymer, and those having a molecular weight of 5000 to 7000 (weight average molecular weight) are preferably used because of particularly good weather resistance and adhesiveness. In addition, the component A may be used only having a hydroxyl group at both ends, but a mixture having a conjugated double bond at one end is mixed with the above-mentioned one having a hydroxyl group at both ends. Is also good. By mixing the acrylic polymer in which the conjugated double bond remains, a layer in contact with the primer layer, for example, the ionizing radiation curable resin of the surface protective layer 5 and the conjugated double bond of the acrylic polymer react with each other. In addition, the adhesion between the ionizing radiation curable resin can be improved.

  Component B reacts with diisocyanate to form polyester urethane and constitutes a urethane resin component in the copolymer. The component B is a polyester diol having hydroxyl groups at both ends.

The acrylic resin component made of an acrylic polymer contributes to weather resistance and blocking resistance in the primer layers 3 and 3 '. In the urethane resin, the molecular weight of the component B may be within a range in which a urethane resin capable of sufficiently exhibiting flexibility in the primer layer is obtained. Adipic acid or a mixture of adipic acid and terephthalic acid, and 3-methylpentanediol In the case of a polyester diol composed of 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol, 500 to 5000 (weight average molecular weight) is preferable.

To.

  When the above three components A, B and C are reacted at 60 to 120 ° C. for about 2 to 10 hours, the isocyanate group of the diisocyanate reacts with the hydroxyl group at the end of the polyester polyol to form a polyester urethane resin component and an acrylic polymer. A compound in which a diisocyanate is added to a terminal hydroxyl group is also mixed, and a prepolymer is formed in a state where excess isocyanate groups and hydroxyl groups remain. As a chain extender, for example, a diamine such as isophorone diamine or hexamethylene diamine is added to this prepolymer, the isocyanate group is reacted with the chain extender, and the chain is extended so that the acrylic polymer component is contained in the polyester urethane molecule. The (i) acrylic-polyester urethane copolymer introduced and having a hydroxyl group at the terminal can be obtained.
