Description

  The present invention relates to an active energy ray-curable ink composition having good adhesion to various substrates and good ejection stability.

  Conventionally, active energy ray-curable compositions have been supplied and used for offsets, silk screens, topcoats, etc., but there are advantages such as cost reduction by simplifying the drying process and reduction of solvent volatilization as an environmental response. In recent years, usage has increased. Among them, water-based and solvent-based inks are often used as ink-jet inks, and the use is properly used according to each feature, but for industrial use, there are limitations on the receiving substrate, relatively poor water resistance, There are problems such as high ink drying energy and adhesion of ink components to the head due to drying, and replacement with active energy ray-curable ink with relatively low volatility is expected.

The active energy ray curable ink is expected to be compatible with various base materials such as vinyl chloride, polycarbonate, acrylic and glass. In particular, there is an increasing demand for ink that adheres to polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which are soft packaging materials used in packages.
However, the adhesion to the substrate largely depends on the affinity between the monomer contained in the ink and the substrate and the bonding of the polar part. Therefore, it is necessary to match the ink composition suitable for each substrate, and in order to cope with various substrates, various types of inks suitable for the substrate are required. In order to solve these problems, it is conceivable to use isobornyl acrylate, which has a particularly good affinity for various substrates. However, isobornyl acrylate has a large steric hindrance and becomes a low-molecular film upon curing. Prone. Therefore, sufficient cured film strength could not be obtained, and excellent adhesion could not be obtained. However, by blending isobornyl acrylate and N-vinylcaprolactam in the ratio described in the present invention, it exhibits excellent curability, can be adhered to various substrates, and has an acid value of a certain level or more. By blending a resin with a high strength, it was possible to achieve a stronger adhesion.

In Document 1, in an ink using isobornyl acrylate and N-vinylcaprolactam, the stretch processability is good, and when printing on a flexible substrate, it is suitable for applications in which deformation processing is performed after ink jet printing. We have invented an ink that can be used, but it contains 2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropyl acrylate and phenoxyethyl acrylate as essential components, and phenoxyethyl acrylate must be 40% to 90% by weight based on the total amount of monomers. It is said. Moreover, in the compounding quantity currently implemented by the literature 1, it adheres only to a polycarbonate and cannot acquire the adhesiveness with respect to a multiple base material.

  In Literatures 2 to 4, isobornyl acrylate and N-vinylcaprolactam are used, but they are used not for inkjet but for optical fiber.

  An object of the present invention is to provide an active energy ray-curable ink composition having good adhesion to various substrates and good ejection stability.

That is, the present invention provides an active energy ray-curable inkjet ink containing at least a polymerizable monomer, wherein the polymerizable monofunctional monomer contains 60% or more and 98% or less of the total polymerizable monomer, One of the functional monomers is isobornyl acrylate and contains 25% to 65% of the total polymerizable monomer, and one of the monofunctional monomers is N-vinylcaprolactam, In particular, the present invention relates to an active energy ray-curable inkjet ink composition comprising 12.5% to 60%.
Furthermore, the present invention has an acid value of 50 mgKOH / g or more and a weight average molecular weight of 1000 or more and 200.
The present invention relates to the active energy ray-curable inkjet ink composition comprising a resin of 00 or less.
Furthermore, the present invention uses the above active energy ray-curable inkjet ink composition, which is printed on a substrate that has been surface-treated by a surface modification method for imparting a polar group to the surface of the substrate. Related to printed matter.
Furthermore, this invention relates to the printed matter printed using this active energy ray hardening-type inkjet ink composition.

  The present invention was able to provide an active energy ray-curable ink composition having good adhesion to various substrates and good ejection stability.

  In the present invention, in order to obtain an active energy ray-curable inkjet ink that has good curability and adheres to various substrates, the polymerizable monofunctional monomer is 60% or more and 98% or less with respect to the total polymerizable monomer. And one of the monofunctional monomers is isobornyl acrylate, contains 25% or more and 65% or less of the total polymerizable monomers, and one of the monofunctional monomers is N-vinylcaprolactam, It has been found that it is important to contain 12.5% or more and 60% or less with respect to all polymerizable monomers.

In the present invention, an ink composition containing a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less and containing a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 10.3 or more, and having an SP value of 8.5 or less and 10.3 or more. It is desirable that the functional monomer is contained in the ink composition in an amount of 35% or more. More preferably, the monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less is 25% or more, and the monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 10.3 or more is 12.5% or more.
The closer the SP value with the substrate is, the better the affinity of the ink is. In particular, a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less has good affinity for polypropylene, which is said to be particularly difficult to adhere. Although the principle is not clear, a monofunctional monomer of 10.3 or more has an electrostatic bond with a polar group generated on the substrate surface by corona treatment or plasma treatment. Strong adhesion cannot be obtained only with a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less, and conversely, with only a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 10.3 or more, the affinity with the substrate is poor and good adhesion is obtained. I can't. These SP values are 8.5
By combining the following monofunctional monomer with a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 10.3 or more, an electrostatic bond with a polar group on the surface of the base material is made while maintaining good affinity with the base material. Adhesion can be realized. Further, it contains a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less, and an SP value of 10
. By including three or more monofunctional monomers, it can be adhered to various substrates.

The solubility parameter (SP value) is a value indicating the compatibility between a substance and the substance, and is calculated based on the structural formula of the substance. The SP value in the present invention was calculated using the Small calculation method. For polar substances containing hydrogen bonds, SP values were calculated using Hoy and Van Krevelen correction values.

In order to obtain the SP value by the Small calculation method, it is necessary to examine the density of the substance. The density of the monomer was measured at a temperature of 25 ° C. for 2 hours and then measured using a 25 ml pycnometer.

As monofunctional monomers having an SP value of 8.5 or less in the present invention, cyclohexyl acrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl acrylate, 4-t-butylcyclohexyl acrylate, caprolactone-modified tetrahydrofurfuryl acrylate, isobornyl acrylate, t-butyl acrylate, isobutyl Examples thereof include, but are not limited to, acrylate, isooctyl acrylate, lauryl acrylate, isostearyl acrylate, stearyl acrylate, isoamyl acrylate, trimethylolpropane formal monoacrylate, and trifluoroethyl acrylate. Moreover, you may use these compounds 1 type, or 2 or more types as needed.

  As monofunctional monomers having an SP value of 10.3 or more in the present invention, acryloylmorpholine, N-vinylcaprolactam, N-vinylpyrrolidone, hydroxyphenoxyethyl acrylate, hydroxyphenoxypropyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate , 4-hydroxybutyl acrylate, 2-acryloyloxypropyl phthalate, and β-carboxylethyl acrylate, but are not limited thereto. Moreover, you may use these compounds 1 type, or 2 or more types as needed.

As a combination of a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less and a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 10.3 or more, a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less is 4-t-butylcyclohexyl acrylate, Examples of the monofunctional monomer having isobornyl acrylate, lauryl acrylate, and SP value of 10.3 or more include acryloylmorpholine, N-vinylcaprolactam, and N-vinylpyrrolidone, and a plurality thereof may be combined as necessary. As a combination of a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less and a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 10.3 or more, a monofunctional monomer having an SP value of 8.5 or less uses isobornyl acrylate. N-vinylcaprolactam may be mentioned as a monofunctional monomer having an N of 10.3 or more.
The above combination has a viscosity suitable as an inkjet ink and exhibits good curability while having excellent adhesion to a surface-treated substrate when converted into an ink.

  Although the principle is not clear, isobornyl acrylate has particularly good affinity for the substrate, and exhibits good wetting and spreading properties for various substrates. However, since isobornyl acrylate has a large steric hindrance, its polymerization rate is slower than that of other acrylate monomers, and when used alone, it tends to form a low-molecular film upon curing. Therefore, sufficient cured film strength could not be obtained, and when the adhesion was evaluated, the cured film itself was destroyed (cohesive failure), and excellent adhesion could not be obtained. However, the cohesive failure can be prevented by using N-vinylcaprolactam in combination. As a factor to prevent cohesive failure, N-vinylcaprolactam has a slow polymerization initiation rate but has a feature of fast reactivity after the initiation of polymerization, and the proportion of crosslinking with isobornyl acrylate having a near polymerization initiation rate increases. This is probably because of this. Therefore, although adhesion cannot be obtained only with isobornyl acrylate, adhesion to various substrates can be obtained by using N-vinylcaprolactam in combination.

When isobornyl acrylate and N-vinylcaprolactam are used in combination, if the content of isobornyl acrylate is 25% or more based on the total polymerizable monomer, it exhibits excellent adhesion, and if it exceeds 65%, poor curing occurs. . In addition, the content of N-vinylcaprolactam is 12.5% or more based on the total polymerizable monomer, thereby suppressing cohesive failure caused by isobornyl acrylate and obtaining adhesion that is not expressed by isobornyl acrylate alone. However, if it exceeds 60%, the principle is not clear, but a cured film cannot be formed, resulting in poor curability and adhesion.

More preferably, N-vinylcaprolactam is 15% or more and 55% based on the total polymerizable monomer.
A combination containing not less than 35% and not more than 35% of isobornyl acrylate with respect to all polymerizable monomers is preferable. This combination further improves adhesion and curability.

Alternatively, N-vinylcaprolactam contains 15% or more and 55% or less of the total polymerizable monomer and isobornyl acrylate contains 25% or more and 55% of the total polymerizable monomer, and an SP value of 8.5
The total amount of the following monofunctional monomers and isobornyl acrylate is desirably 35% or more based on the total polymerizable monomers. This combination further improves adhesion and curability.

In the present invention, a monofunctional monomer other than isobornyl acrylate and N-vinylcaprolactam can be used in combination as necessary. Specifically, cyclohexyl acrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl acrylate, 4-t-butylcyclohexyl acrylate, caprolactone-modified tetrahydrofurfuryl acrylate, t-butyl acrylate, isobutyl acrylate, isooctyl acrylate, lauryl acrylate, isostearyl acrylate, stearyl acrylate, Isoamyl acrylate, trimethylolpropane formal monoacrylate, trifluoroethyl acrylate, acryloylmorpholine, N-vinylcaprolactam, N-vinylpyrrolidone, hydroxyphenoxyethyl acrylate, hydroxyphenoxypropyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate, 4-hydroxybu Acrylate, 2-acryloyloxypropyl phthalate, β-carboxylethyl acrylate, benzyl acrylate, methylphenoxyethyl acrylate, 2-phenoxyethyl acrylate (or its ethylene oxide and / or propylene oxide addition monomer), phenoxydiethylene glycol acrylate, 1 4-cyclohexanedimethanol monoacrylate, N-acryloyloxyethyl hexahydrophthalimide 2-methoxyethyl acrylate, methoxytriethylene glycol acrylate, 2-ethoxyethyl acrylate, 3-methoxybutyl acrylate, ethoxyethoxyethyl acrylate, butoxyethyl acrylate, Methoxydipropylene glycol acrylate, dipropylene Glycol acrylate, ethoxylated succinic acid acrylate, and ω-carboxypolycaprolactone monoacrylate, but are not limited thereto. Moreover, you may use these compounds 1 type, or 2 or more types as needed.

  The amount of the polymerizable monofunctional monomer in the present invention is preferably from 60% to 98%, more preferably from 70% to 98%. If the amount of the monofunctional monomer is less than 60%, the ratio of polyfunctionality increases and curing shrinkage increases, resulting in poor adhesion. On the other hand, when the amount of the monofunctional monomer is more than 98%, the strength of the cured film itself becomes weak, and it becomes unsuitable as a cured film.

Furthermore, in the present invention, it is desirable to use a resin having an acid value of 50 mg KOH / g or more and a weight average molecular weight of 1000 to 20000, more preferably a weight average molecular weight of 1
000 or more and 15000 or less. Furthermore, the resin content is desirably 1% or more and 10% or less, more desirably 2% or more and 10% or less, based on the total polymerizable monomer.

A resin having an acid value of 50 mgKOH / g or more has an electrostatic bond between the polar group generated on the surface of the printing substrate and the polar portion of the resin, and improves the adhesion to the substrate. In particular, by adding a resin having an acid value of 50 mgKOH / g or more, adhesion to PP or PET is improved. PP and PET have many non-polar parts, and only resins having an acid value have insufficient wettability with PP or PET and cannot provide excellent adhesion, but isobornyl with good wettability with PP or PET By using together acrylate and N-vinylcaprolactam that prevents cohesive failure, it is possible to combine with polar parts produced by corona treatment and to express stronger adhesion. Further, when a resin having a weight average molecular weight of more than 20000 is contained, the injection characteristics are deteriorated.

As the resin having good solubility with the acrylate monomer and / or oligomer and / or prepolymer, it is desirable to use an acrylic acid resin, a styrene acrylic acid copolymer resin, a styrene maleic acid copolymer resin, or a polyester resin.

When the resin having an acid value of 50 mgKOH / g or more is contained in an amount of 1% or more with respect to the total polymerizable monomer, the adhesion is improved. Further, when the resin is contained in an amount of more than 10% based on the total polymerizable monomer, the viscosity becomes unsuitable as an inkjet ink, and the resin may be precipitated when the ink is stored at a low temperature.

In order to improve the wettability to the substrate, it is preferable to add a surface conditioner to the composition of the present invention. Specific examples of the surface conditioner include BYK-300, 302, 306, 307, 310, 315, 320, 322, 323, 325, 330, 331, 333, 337, 340, 344, 370, and 375 manufactured by BYK-Chemie. 377, 350, 352, 354, 355, 356, 358N, 361N, 357, 390, 392, UV3500, UV3510, UV3570, “Tegorad-2100, 2200, 2250, 2500, 2700” manufactured by Tego Chemie. These surface conditioners may be used alone or in combination of two or more as required.

The surface conditioner is preferably contained in the composition in an amount of 0.001 to 5% by weight. If it is less than 0.001% by weight, the wetting spread is poor, and if it is more than 5% by weight, the surface conditioner cannot be fully oriented at the ink interface, and only a certain effect is exhibited.

The energy ray is not limited to this as long as it induces a polymerization reaction.

In addition, an organic solvent may be contained in the ink in order to reduce the viscosity of the ink and improve the wetting and spreading property to the substrate.

Among these, tetraethylene glycol dialkyl ether, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, and diethyl diglycol are preferable.

The active energy ray-curable composition shown in the present invention refers to a liquid that is printed or coated on the surface of a substrate. This ink can be used as a coating application when it does not contain a coloring component, and can be used as a material for displaying graphics, characters, photographs, etc. when it contains a coloring component. Conventionally, dyes and pigments are widely used as the coloring component, but pigments are often used particularly from the viewpoint of weather resistance.

  Examples of the water-soluble inorganic salt include sodium chloride and potassium chloride. These inorganic salts are used in the range of 3 times by weight or more, preferably 20 times by weight or less of the organic pigment. When the amount of the inorganic salt is less than 3 times by weight, a treated pigment having a desired size cannot be obtained. On the other hand, if the amount is more than 20 times by weight, the washing process in the subsequent step is great, and the substantial amount of the organic pigment is reduced.

  The water-soluble solvent is an organic solvent and a water-soluble inorganic salt that is used as a crushing aid, and is used for efficient crushing efficiently, especially if it is a solvent that dissolves in water. Although not limited, a high boiling point solvent having a boiling point of 120 to 250 ° C. is preferable from the viewpoint of safety because the temperature rises during kneading and the solvent is easily evaporated.

In the present invention, when ultraviolet rays are used as active energy rays, a radical photopolymerization initiator is blended in the ink. As the radical photopolymerization initiator, those of molecular cleavage type or hydrogen abstraction type are suitable for the present invention. Specific examples include benzoin isobutyl ether, 2,4-diethylthioxanthone, 2-isopropylthioxanthone, benzyl, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyldiphenylphosphine oxide, 2-benzyl-2-dimethylamino-1- (4- Morpholinophenyl) -butan-1-one, bis (2,4,6-dimethoxybenzoyl) -2,4,4-trimethylpentylphosphine oxide, 1,2-octanedione, 1- (4- (phenylthio) -2,2- (O-benzoyloxime)), oligo (2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1- (4- (1-methylvinyl) phenyl) propanone, etc. are preferably used, and further molecular cleavage other than these As types, 1-hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone, benzoin ethyl ether , Benzyldimethyl ketal, 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-one, 1- (4-isopropylphenyl) -2-hydroxy-2-methylpropan-1-one and 2-methyl-1 -(4-Methylthiophenyl) -2-morpholinopropan-1-one or the like may be used in combination, and benzophenone, 4-phenylbenzophenone, isophthalphenone, 4-benzoyl which are hydrogen abstraction type photopolymerization initiators -4'-methyl-diphenyl sulfide and the like can be used in combination.

Usually, the photopolymerization initiator often has one cleavage part. However, since the photopolymerization initiator used in the present invention has two or more cleavage parts, after the cleavage by active energy irradiation, the polymerizable monomer.
Can react with a plurality of parts, and thus the molecular weight of the polymerization reaction product in the cured film can be increased. The blocking is considered to be caused by a large amount of unreacted monomers and dimers and trimers that have been polymerized in a low molecular state in the cured film. For this reason, a blocking-free printed matter can be obtained by using a photopolymerization initiator having two or more cleavage sites as the photopolymerization initiator and increasing the molecular weight of the polymerization reaction product in the cured film.

  The photopolymerization initiator is classified into an intramolecular bond cleavage type and an intermolecular hydrogen abstraction type, and the oligo (2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1- (4- (1-methylvinyl) phenyl) propanone of the present invention. Is classified as an acetophenone type that occupies most of the intramolecular bond type, and has characteristics such as faster polymerization, less yellowing due to photoacid number, and better storage stability than the intermolecular hydrogen abstraction type. 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyldiphenylphosphine oxide has an absorption peak in the wavelength range of 350 nm to 395 nm and is oligo (2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1- (4- (1-methylvinyl) phenyl) By using light on the longer wavelength side than the light absorbed by propanone, the penetration depth of the irradiated light becomes longer, and the hardening inside the film is promoted. Result of using a photopolymerization initiator having an absorption peak in the range, and improved cure rate.

Of course, it is preferable to select and use the radical photopolymerization initiator and the sensitizer, which are excellent in solubility in the ultraviolet curable compound and do not inhibit the ultraviolet transmittance.

  The photopolymerization initiator is preferably contained in an amount of 2 to 20% by weight based on the polymerizable monomer. If it is less than 2% by weight, the curing rate is remarkably deteriorated, and if it is more than 20% by weight, the curing rate does not change from that of 10% by weight, and a dissolution residue may occur. Even if the undissolved residue is melted, there is a problem that the viscosity of the ink is increased and the inkjet dischargeability is deteriorated.

The absorption spectrum of the photopolymerization initiator was measured by a spectrophotometer (HITACHI U-3300) using a 1 cm quartz cell after dissolving the photopolymerization initiator in acetonitrile by 0.1% by weight. The absorption peak described in the present invention means a peak having an absorbance of 0.5 or more under the above measurement conditions. In addition, the acylphosphine oxide photopolymerization initiator often has an absorption peak with an intensity of 0.5 or more in the wavelength range of 350 nm to 395 nm under the above measurement conditions.

The ink-jet ink of the present invention is produced by well dispersing a pigment together with a monomer and a pigment dispersant using an ordinary dispersing machine such as a sand mill. It is preferable to prepare a concentrated solution having a high pigment concentration in advance and dilute with a monomer. Sufficient dispersion is possible even with dispersion using ordinary dispersers, so there is no excessive dispersion energy and a great amount of dispersion time.
Therefore, the ink component is hardly deteriorated when the ink component is dispersed, and an ink having excellent stability is prepared. The ink is preferably filtered through a filter having a pore size of 3 μm or less, and more preferably 1 μm or less.

When cured with an electron beam, it is usually cured with an electron beam having an energy of 300 eV or less, but it can also be cured instantaneously with an irradiation dose of 1 to 5 Mrad.

  The printing substrate used in the present invention includes polycarbonate, hard vinyl chloride, soft vinyl chloride, polystyrene, foamed polystyrene, PMMA, polypropylene, polyethylene, PET, and other mixed or modified products, and metals such as glass and stainless steel. Examples include base materials and wood.

The surface treatment method for the substrate in the present invention refers to a surface modification method for imparting a polar group to the substrate surface, such as corona treatment or plasma treatment. Corona treatment and plasma treatment are types of discharge treatment, and are treatments in which oxygen-containing groups are introduced on the surface of the polymer substrate.
