Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は新規なラテックス組成物、及びそれを用いて帯電防止性が改良されたシート状材料に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
一般に電気絶縁性を有する支持体及び何らかの機能を有する親水性層からなっているシート材料は、シート材料の製造中並びに使用時に同種又は異種物質との接触、剥離により帯電を起こすことが多い。この帯電現象は、シート材料同士が帯電によりくっつき合って取り扱い性を劣化させたり、ゴミが付着して品質を劣化させたり、放電現象を起こして機能性層に悪影響を及ぼしたり、作業者を著しく不快にしたりする。
【0003】
これら静電気による障害をなくすために、支持体に導電性層を設けたり、親水性コロイド層に界面活性剤を添加したりするが、前者の場合はコスト増大の要因となり、後者は接触物質により効果が異なったり機能性に影響する場合がある。また、親水性コロイド層に導電性の水溶性高分子を添加する方法もあるが、表面がべとつき易く材料同士のくっつきが起き易くなる。
【0004】
米国特許第4,266,015号には、含フッ素ポリマーラテックスをハロゲン化銀写真感光材料の親水性コロイド層に添加し、静電気障害を小さくする技術が開示されている。しかしこの技術では、実施例中のラテックスを添加して作成したハロゲン化銀感光材料は、表面がべとつき易く材料同士のくっつきが起き易くなる。このような問題は、ハロゲン化銀材料のみならず、支持体上に水を溶媒とし、水溶性ポリマーや水分散ポリマーがバインダー材料として含まれる塗布液を塗布乾燥して機能性層を形成した材料に共通して認められた。
【0005】
本発明者らが、このべとつき現象を改良するために含フッ素ポリマーラテックスの改良を鋭意検討した結果、親水性高分子の存在下で含フッ素モノマーを重合した材料がべたつきを小さくすることが判り、更に導電性の水溶性高分子の存在下で含フッ素モノマーを重合したラテックスを親水性バインダーに添加した場合はべたつきが小さくなるばかりでなく、静電気障害も著しく小さくなることが判り、本発明に至った。
【0006】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明の課題は、静電気障害の起きにくいシート状材料及び該シート状材料用の新規な素材を提供することにある。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記課題を解決する本発明は、下記構成を有する。

【0008】
2.支持体上に少なくとも1層の親水性コロイド層を有するシート状材料において、該親水性コロイド層中に前記1に記載のラテックス組成物を固形分として親水性コロイドバインダー中に1〜40重量%含有することを特徴とするシート状材料。

[Prior art]
In general, a sheet material composed of a support having electrical insulation and a hydrophilic layer having a certain function is often charged by contact with and peeling from the same or different substances during the production of the sheet material and at the time of use. This charging phenomenon may cause sheet materials to stick to each other due to electrification and deteriorate handling properties, or dust may adhere to deteriorate quality, or a discharge phenomenon may occur and adversely affect the functional layer. Or make it uncomfortable.

In order to eliminate these problems caused by static electricity, a conductive layer is provided on the support or a surfactant is added to the hydrophilic colloid layer. In the former case, the cost increases. May be different or affect functionality. Also, there is a method of adding a conductive water-soluble polymer to the hydrophilic colloid layer, but the surface is easy to stick and the materials tend to stick to each other.

U.S. Pat. No. 4,266,015 discloses a technique in which a fluorine-containing polymer latex is added to a hydrophilic colloid layer of a silver halide photographic light-sensitive material to reduce electrostatic interference. However, with this technique, the silver halide photosensitive material prepared by adding the latex in the examples tends to be sticky on the surface and easily stick to each other.

As a result of earnestly examining the improvement of the fluorine-containing polymer latex in order to improve the stickiness phenomenon, the present inventors have found that the material obtained by polymerizing the fluorine-containing monomer in the presence of the hydrophilic polymer reduces the stickiness. Furthermore, it has been found that when a latex obtained by polymerizing a fluorine-containing monomer in the presence of a conductive water-soluble polymer is added to a hydrophilic binder, not only the stickiness is reduced, but also electrostatic damage is remarkably reduced. It was.
