Description

The present invention particularly relates to a building exterior material that is excellent in harmful gas decomposability while suppressing deterioration of a substrate.
Alternatively, the present invention relates to a coating liquid for building exterior that can impart a photocatalytic function such as harmful gas decomposability to a building, a vehicle, members constituting them, and a composite material by forming a coating layer while suppressing deterioration of the base material.

In recent years, photocatalysts such as titanium oxide have been used in many applications such as buildings of buildings, vehicles, members constituting them, and composite materials.
For outdoor use, by applying a photocatalyst to the surface of the base material, it is possible to impart a function of decomposing harmful substances such as NOx and SOx using light energy.
In addition, for indoor use, it is possible to impart a function of decomposing toxic substances such as VOCs and an antibacterial function using light energy.

In the case of building structures, vehicles, and members, composite materials, etc., the surface of the base material to which the photocatalytic function is to be applied is enameled or applied on top of the enamel to provide design. Often painted clear.
If an attempt is made to directly form a photocatalyst layer there, the enameled and clear painted surfaces are mainly composed of organic matter, and in the long term, the painted surface will deteriorate due to the photocatalyst particles present at the interface between the photocatalyst layer and the painted surface. Cause problems.

Therefore, conventionally, a barrier layer containing a large amount of inorganic components has been formed between the enamel-coated surface, the clear-coated surface, and the photocatalyst layer (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2007-167718).
However, when the barrier layer is formed, not only the cost is increased, but also man-hours are required and the photocatalytic function cannot be easily provided.

  Therefore, the photocatalytic function is exhibited while suppressing the deterioration of the enameled surface or the clear painted surface, more preferably, there is no off-flavor or environmental pollution during application, and most preferably the deterioration of the substrate surface due to ultraviolet rays is suppressed. A photocatalyst-coated body or a photocatalyst coating solution that directly coats the material to form a photocatalytic functional layer is required.

  As such a photocatalyst coating composition that directly exerts a photocatalytic function on one substrate, the content of silane-modified photocatalyst particles and alkoxy groups and / or hydroxyl groups bonded to silicon atoms is 7 to 20 mmol. An aqueous organic / inorganic composite composition comprising colloidal silica of / g and polymer emulsion particles having an alkoxy group bonded to a silicon atom and / or a hydroxyl group content of 1 to 20 mmol / g is known. (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2008-222887).

  In the coating liquid for exterior building of the present invention, a film forming aid having a boiling point of 100 ° C. or higher that is soluble in water or can be uniformly dispersed in water can be blended. This film-forming aid remains in the film even after most of the water has evaporated, and it provides fluidity to the film until it is completely cured, thereby repairing the film that was rough at the time of vaporization. It is given. In order to obtain a good film, the non-reactive film-forming aid must eventually disappear from the cured film, and does not contain hydroxyl groups that can be bonded to silicon atoms by transesterification. It is preferable. Therefore, the film forming aid is preferably an organic solvent having a boiling point of 100 ° C. or higher, preferably 100 to 250 ° C., particularly 100 to 200 ° C. If the boiling point is too high, it may easily remain in the film. Specifically, alcohols such as 1-butanol, isobutyl alcohol, 2-pentanol, 3-pentanol, isopentyl alcohol, methyl lactate, ethyl lactate, and 3-methyl-3-methoxybutanol, 1,2-propane Polyols such as diol, 1,3-butanediol 1,4-butanediol, 2,3-butanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol, glycerin, trimethylolpropane, Ethylene glycol derivatives such as 2-butoxyethanol, 2-phenoxyethanol, 2-ethoxyethyl acetate, 2-butoxyethyl acetate, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, 1-methoxy-2-propanol, 1-ethoxy-2-propanol, 1-methoxy-2 Propylene glycol derivatives such as methyl ethyl acetate, 1-ethoxy-2-methyl ethyl acetate, dipropylene glycol, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, 3-methoxybutyl Examples include butylene glycol derivatives such as acetate, ketones such as cyclohexanone, esters such as butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, γ-butyrolactone, propylene carbonate, and dibutyl phthalate. In particular, alkylene glycol derivatives such as 2-ethoxyethyl acetate, 2-butoxyethyl acetate, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, 1-ethoxy-2-methylethyl acetate, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate are leveling properties. To preferred. Since these organic solvents are inferior in water solubility as compared with low boiling alcohols such as methanol and ethanol, they do not impair the stability of the emulsion and contribute only to the formation of a uniform film.

  The amount of the film forming aid added is preferably 0 to 20 parts by weight, particularly 1 to 15 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the silicone resin. If added in excess of 20 parts by weight, the amount of the film-forming auxiliary agent remaining in the film even after the completion of curing increases, so that the characteristics of the film may be insufficient.

  The solvent of the architectural exterior coating liquid of the present invention is mainly water. As a result, it is possible to effectively prevent the odor and environmental pollution associated with the volatilization and evaporation of organic substances during coating film formation.

  Moreover, the solid content concentration of the coating liquid for building exterior is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 to 60% by mass because it is easy to apply.
