【発明の所属する技術分野】
本発明は優れた分散性を示し、高度の透明性を有する導電性酸化スズ粉末の有機溶剤系分散体及びこれを用いた有機溶剤系の導電性塗料に関する。
本発明の導電性塗料は、表示機器の表示面、その表面保護材料、フィルム等の透明基材の帯電防止に有用であり、また建材、車両等の窓材の赤外線遮蔽としても有用である。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
ブラウン管(CRT)、液晶ディスプレイ(LCD)等の表示機器の表示面、クリーンルーム等の窓材、ICパッケージ等の包装材として用いられるガラス、プラスチックスや、OHP、写真等に用いられるフィルムのような各種透明基材は、一般的に絶縁体であるため静電気を帯びやすく、このため表面にゴミ、埃などが付着しやすい。また、電子機器用途の場合、静電気によって誤動作を起こすことなどの問題が生じる。
【0003】
これらの問題を解決するために基材となる透明性材料に導電性粉末を混練して成形したり、導電性粉末を配合した塗料を基体表面に塗布したりすることで対処している。酸化スズ粉末は、媒体に均一に分散させることができれば、高い透明性を保持し、導電性も優れており、このような用途に適した導電性粉末である。しかし、酸化スズ粉末は、親水性が極めて強く、有機溶剤系塗料で使用する場合、塗料中に分散させるのが難しく、十分な透明性を得ることはできなかった。
【0004】
酸化スズ粉末の有機溶剤系塗料での分散性を改良する方法として、界面活性剤等の分散剤を塗料中に配合する方法が知られている。しかし、十分な透明性を得るには、多量の分散剤を塗料に配合することを必要とし、塗膜にした場合、基材との密着性が悪くなり、また塗膜強度も低下する。更に、導電性酸化スズ粒子の表面を導電性の無い分散剤が覆うことになる為、導電性も低下する。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は上記のような問題点を克服し、可及的に分散剤量を低減しても有機溶剤系で優れた分散性を示し、有機溶剤系塗料に使用した場合、優れた透明性、導電性、密着性を示す導電性酸化スズ粉末の有機溶剤系分散体及びこれを配合してなる導電性有機溶剤系塗料を提供するものである。
【0006】
【発明が解決するための手段】
本発明者らは鋭意研究を重ねた結果、有機金属カップリング剤を表面に被覆した導電性酸化スズ粉末を、分散剤と、有機溶剤系媒体とで分散体とすれば、分散剤の添加量を大幅に低減しても良好な分散性が得られること、この分散体に樹脂を混合すれば透明性と導電性が高く、塗膜物性の優れた導電性塗料が得られることを見出し、本発明を完成した。
【0007】
即ち、本発明は分散媒としての有機溶剤系媒体、粒子表面に有機金属カップリング剤を被覆した酸化スズ粉末及び分散剤を含有する導電性微粉末有機溶剤系分散体であって、2種以上の分散剤を含むことを特徴とする導電性粉末有機溶剤系分散体である。更には、この分散体と樹脂とを混合させてなる導電性塗料である。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明で用いる導電性酸化スズ粉末は、好ましくは比表面積が20〜150m2/gであり、より好ましくは30〜130m2/g、さらに好ましくは40〜100m2/gである。比表面積が上記範囲より小さ過ぎると塗膜にしたときの透明性や平滑性が低下し、また大き過ぎると必要とする分散剤量、有機金属カップリング剤量が増し、膜強度、密着性、導電性が低下する。導電性酸化スズ粉末の形状は、球状、針状、樹枝状、板状等特に制限は無い。さらに、分散性改善の目的でケイ素、タングステン、ジルコニウム、アルミニウムなどの酸化物を該酸化スズ粒子中に固溶させたり、該酸化スズ粒子表面に担持または被覆させても良い。これらの金属酸化物の担持または被覆は、後述する有機金属カップリング剤による被覆の前に行ってもよく、製造工程において有機金属カップリング剤と共存させることにより同時に行ってもよく、さらに本発明の目的を害さない範囲で被覆後に行ってもよい。担持や被覆の方法は特に限定されない。
【0009】
本発明で用いる導電性酸化スズ粉末は、導電性をさらに向上させるため、該酸化スズ粒子中にアンチモン、リン、フッ素、タングステン、タンタル、ニオブなどの異種の元素を含有させることが好ましく、特にアンチモンが好ましい。アンチモンの含有量は、酸化スズ粉末に対してSb2O3として好ましくは0.5〜20重量%、さらに好ましくは8〜15重量%であり、アンチモンの量がこの範囲より少な過ぎると所望の効果が得られず、多過ぎると粉末の着色が強くなるので好ましくない。
【0010】
本発明で用いる導電性酸化スズ粉末は、例えば、(1)スズ化合物の溶液を中和して酸化スズの水和物沈殿を生成させ、これを分別し、焼成する方法、(2)塩化スズのアルコール溶液を水中で加水分解し、生成物を分別、焼成する方法、等の方法で製造されるが、いずれを用いても良い。また、アンチモンなどの異種の元素を含有させる場合には、例えば、上記(1)の方法では、中和する際に異種元素の化合物の溶液を加えて共沈物を生成させることにより行うことができる。
【0011】
本発明で用いる導電性酸化スズ粉末は、その粒子表面に有機金属カップリング剤が被覆されていることが必要である。後述の分散剤と併用したとしても、有機金属カップリング剤を単に分散体に添加するのであれば、所望の分散性改良の効果は認められない。
【0012】
有機金属カップリング剤としてはヘキシルトリメトキシシラン、オクチルトリメトキシシラン、メタクリロキシプロピルトリメトキシシラン等のシランカップリング剤、イソプロピルトリス(ジオクチルピロホスフェート)チタネート、テトラ(2,2−ジアリルオキシメチル−1−ブチル)ビス(ジトリデシル)ホスファイトチタネート、イソプロピルトリイソステアロイルチタネート等のチタネートカップリング剤、アセトアルコキシアルミニウムジイソプロピレート等のアルミニウムカップリング剤などが挙げられる。有機金属カップリング剤は、1種類を単独で使用してもよいし、異なる2種以上のカップリング剤を併用してもよい。
【0013】
有機金属カップリング剤の被覆量は、導電性酸化スズ粉末に対して好ましくは0.01〜30重量%、さらに好ましくは0.05〜15重量%である。処理量が上記範囲より少な過ぎると、導電性酸化スズ粉末の有機溶剤系媒体での分散性が低下し、多過ぎると、塗膜化した際、塗膜強度、密着性、導電性の低下などの問題が生じる。
【0014】
有機金属カップリング剤を導電性酸化スズ粉末に被覆するには、例えば(1)酸化スズ粉末をヘンシェルミキサーなどの高速攪拌機に入れて攪拌しながら、上記カップリング剤、またはこれらの水あるいはアルコール溶液を添加し、均一になるように攪拌した後、乾燥する乾式法、(2)酸化スズ粉末を水中に分散させたスラリーに、攪拌しながら上記カップリング剤、またはこれらの水あるいはアルコール溶液を添加し、充分に攪拌した後、濾過、洗浄、乾燥する湿式法、等があり、いずれを用いてもよい。
【0015】
本発明の分散体は、有機金属カップリング剤を被覆した酸化スズ粉末を好ましくは10〜70重量%、さらに好ましくは15〜50重量%含有する。含有量がこの範囲より少な過ぎると、このものに樹脂成分を配合して導電性塗料として用いる場合、十分な導電性を上げられない問題が出てくる。また多過ぎると工業的に良好な分散体を得るのが困難になる。酸化スズ粒子はその全面を有機金属カップリング剤で被覆されていることが好ましいが、本発明の目的を害さない範囲で、被覆されていない粒子や一部のみ被覆された粒子を含んでいてもよい。
【0016】
本発明の分散体は、これに配合されている導電性酸化スズ粉末の分散性、安定性を向上させるため、分散剤を用いることが必要である。上記の有機金属カップリング剤を酸化スズに被覆するだけでは、カップリング剤の処理量を大幅に増しても酸化スズ粉末を十分に有機溶剤系媒体中に分散させることは困難である。
【0017】
分散剤としては、第4級アンモニウム塩などのカチオン系、カルボン酸塩、スルホン酸塩、硫酸エステル塩、リン酸エステル塩などのアニオン系、エーテル型、エーテルエステル型、エステル型、含窒素型などのノニオン系の何れでも良く、導電性酸化スズ粉末に吸着するものであれば特に限定されないが、その中でもカチオン系分散剤が好ましい。通常、導電性酸化スズ粉末は、その表面が溶液中で負の電荷を帯びているので、分散剤がカチオン系のものであれば静電的に吸着され、効果が高くなる。分散体中の分散剤の量は、好ましくは0.01〜20重量%、さらに好ましくは0.1〜15重量%、さらに好ましくは0.1〜10重量%である。分散剤の量が上記範囲より少な過ぎると、酸化スズ粉末が分散体若しくは導電性塗料中で凝集しやすくなる。上記範囲より多過ぎると、塗膜化した際に十分な塗膜強度が得られず、また基材への密着が悪くなる。更に、酸化スズ粉末の表面を絶縁体である分散剤が覆うことになり、その量が多過ぎると導電性が低下する。
また、本発明において分散剤は、1種類を単独で使用してもよいし、異なる2種以上の分散剤を併用してもよい。2種以上の分散剤を併用する際は、分散媒としての有機溶剤系媒体に対する溶解度が異なるものを用いる方が、導電性塗料を作製する際に導電性粉末の分散性をより安定に保持することができる。
【0018】
本発明の分散体において、分散媒として用いる有機溶剤系媒体は、トルエン、酢酸ブチル、プロピルアルコール、ブチルアルコール、メチルエチルケトン、キシレンなど一般的に塗料に用いる有機溶剤であれば特に制限は無い。
【0019】
本発明の導電性粉末有機溶剤系分散体は、例えば、前記カップリング剤を被覆した導電性酸化スズ粉末、分散剤及び有機溶剤系媒体を予備混合した後、サンドミル、ボールミル等の通常用いられる粉砕機を用いて湿式粉砕して分散させて得られる。湿式粉砕時の固形分濃度は好ましくは10〜80重量%、さらに好ましくは30〜60重量%である。固形分濃度が上記範囲より高過ぎると、流動性が低下し、湿式粉砕が困難になり、低過ぎると分散体中の酸化スズ粉末の含有量が少なくなり、経済的でない。分散体中の最終的な固形分濃度は、使用する用途に応じて有機溶剤系媒体の量を加減することにより適宜調整することができる。
【0020】
更に本発明は、前記有機溶剤系分散体と樹脂とからなる導電性塗料である。本発明の導電性塗料に用いる樹脂としては、前記有機溶剤系分散媒に溶解するものであれば特に制限はなく、例えばアクリル樹脂、アルキド樹脂、メラミン樹脂、ポリエステル樹脂、塩ビ−酢ビ樹脂、エポキシ樹脂、ウレタン樹脂、フェノール樹脂、アミノ樹脂、フッ素樹脂、ポリビニルアルコール樹脂、エチレン酢酸ビニル共重合体、アクリル−スチレン共重合体等を適宜選択、使用することができる。塗料中の樹脂の量は、好ましくは5〜90重量%、さらに好ましくは5〜50重量%である。
【0021】
また、本発明の導電性塗料には、上記の分散体と樹脂以外に安定剤、硬化剤、重合開始剤など通常塗料に用いられる添加剤が配合されていても良く、目的に応じてこれらの添加剤を適宜選択して使用することができる。
【0022】
本発明の導電性塗料を得るには、例えば前記分散体と樹脂とを混合する方法、樹脂を予め溶剤に溶解した樹脂溶液と前記分散体とを混合する方法等が挙げられる。分散体と樹脂または樹脂溶液とを羽根型攪拌機、ディスパー、ホモミキサー、ディゾルバー、インペラーミル等を用いて撹拌、混合することにより容易に導電性塗料を得ることができる。
【0023】
このようにして得られた本発明の導電性塗料を例えば、アクリル板、塩ビ板、フィルム、ガラス板等の基材に塗布する事で、帯電防止能と透明性とを併せ持った塗膜を形成することができる。塗布には、バーコート、スプレーコートなど塗装機を用いたり、スピンコート、ディップコートによる塗工など通常の塗布方法を用いることができる。

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]
The present invention relates to an organic solvent-based dispersion of conductive tin oxide powder that exhibits excellent dispersibility and has a high degree of transparency, and an organic solvent-based conductive coating using the same.
The conductive paint of the present invention is useful for preventing charging of a transparent substrate such as a display surface of a display device, its surface protective material, and a film, and is also useful as an infrared shield for window materials such as building materials and vehicles.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Display surfaces of display devices such as cathode ray tubes (CRT) and liquid crystal displays (LCD), window materials for clean rooms, etc., glass used as packaging materials for IC packages, plastics, OHP, films used for photographs, etc. Since various transparent substrates are generally insulators, they are easily charged with static electricity, and thus dust, dust, etc. are likely to adhere to the surface. Further, in the case of electronic device applications, problems such as malfunction due to static electricity arise.
[0003]
In order to solve these problems, a transparent material as a base material is kneaded with a conductive powder and molded, or a coating containing the conductive powder is applied to the substrate surface. As long as the tin oxide powder can be uniformly dispersed in the medium, the tin oxide powder has high transparency and excellent conductivity, and is a conductive powder suitable for such applications. However, tin oxide powder has extremely strong hydrophilicity, and when used in an organic solvent-based paint, it is difficult to disperse in the paint, and sufficient transparency cannot be obtained.
[0004]
As a method for improving the dispersibility of tin oxide powder in an organic solvent-based paint, a method of blending a dispersant such as a surfactant in the paint is known. However, in order to obtain sufficient transparency, it is necessary to add a large amount of a dispersant to the paint, and when it is used as a coating film, the adhesion to the substrate is deteriorated and the coating film strength is also lowered. Furthermore, since the non-conductive dispersant covers the surface of the conductive tin oxide particles, the conductivity is also lowered.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention overcomes the above problems and exhibits excellent dispersibility in an organic solvent system even when the amount of the dispersant is reduced as much as possible. When used in an organic solvent paint, excellent transparency, The present invention provides an organic solvent-based dispersion of conductive tin oxide powder exhibiting conductivity and adhesion, and a conductive organic solvent-based paint formed by blending this.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Invention]
As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have found that the conductive tin oxide powder having the surface coated with the organometallic coupling agent is dispersed in a dispersant and an organic solvent-based medium. It has been found that good dispersibility can be obtained even if drastically reduced, and that if a resin is mixed in this dispersion, a conductive paint having high transparency and conductivity and excellent coating film properties can be obtained. Completed the invention.
[0007]
That is, the present invention is an organic solvent-based medium as a dispersion medium, I conductive fine powder organic solvent-based dispersion der containing tin oxide powder and a dispersant coated with organic metal coupling agent to the particle surface, two Ru conductive powder organic solvent-based dispersion der which comprises the above dispersant. Further, it is a conductive paint obtained by mixing this dispersion and a resin.
[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The conductive tin oxide powder used in the present invention preferably has a specific surface area of 20 to 150 m 2 / g, more preferably 30 to 130 m 2 / g, still more preferably 40 to 100 m 2 / g. If the specific surface area is too smaller than the above range, the transparency and smoothness of the coating film will decrease, and if it is too large, the amount of dispersing agent required, the amount of the organometallic coupling agent will increase, film strength, adhesion, The conductivity is reduced. The shape of the conductive tin oxide powder is not particularly limited, such as a spherical shape, a needle shape, a dendritic shape, or a plate shape. Furthermore, for the purpose of improving dispersibility, oxides such as silicon, tungsten, zirconium, and aluminum may be dissolved in the tin oxide particles, or supported or coated on the surface of the tin oxide particles. Supporting or coating of these metal oxides may be performed before coating with an organometallic coupling agent described later, or may be performed simultaneously by coexisting with an organometallic coupling agent in the production process. It may be carried out after coating within a range that does not impair the purpose. The method of carrying or covering is not particularly limited.
[0009]
The conductive tin oxide powder used in the present invention preferably contains different elements such as antimony, phosphorus, fluorine, tungsten, tantalum and niobium in the tin oxide particles in order to further improve the conductivity. Is preferred. The content of antimony is preferably 0.5 to 20% by weight, more preferably 8 to 15% by weight as Sb 2 O 3 with respect to the tin oxide powder. If the amount of antimony is less than this range, the desired content is obtained. If the effect is not obtained and the amount is too large, coloring of the powder becomes strong, which is not preferable.
[0010]
The conductive tin oxide powder used in the present invention includes, for example, (1) a method in which a tin compound solution is neutralized to form a tin oxide hydrate precipitate, and this is separated and fired. (2) tin chloride The alcohol solution is hydrolyzed in water, and the product is separated and baked. The method may be any method. Further, when a different element such as antimony is contained, for example, in the method (1), a solution of a compound of a different element is added to generate a coprecipitate when neutralizing. it can.
[0011]
The conductive tin oxide powder used in the present invention needs to be coated with an organometallic coupling agent on the particle surface. Even if it is used in combination with a dispersant described later, the desired effect of improving dispersibility is not recognized as long as the organometallic coupling agent is simply added to the dispersion.
[0012]
Examples of the organometallic coupling agent include silane coupling agents such as hexyltrimethoxysilane, octyltrimethoxysilane, and methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, isopropyltris (dioctylpyrophosphate) titanate, and tetra (2,2-diallyloxymethyl-1). -Butyl) bis (ditridecyl) phosphite titanate, titanate coupling agents such as isopropyltriisostearoyl titanate, aluminum coupling agents such as acetoalkoxyaluminum diisopropylate, and the like. One type of organometallic coupling agent may be used alone, or two or more different types of coupling agents may be used in combination.
[0013]
The coating amount of the organometallic coupling agent is preferably 0.01 to 30% by weight, more preferably 0.05 to 15% by weight, based on the conductive tin oxide powder. If the treatment amount is too smaller than the above range, the dispersibility of the conductive tin oxide powder in the organic solvent-based medium is reduced, and if it is too much, the coating strength, adhesion, conductivity, etc. are reduced when the coating is formed. Problem arises.
[0014]
In order to coat the conductive metal oxide powder with the organometallic coupling agent, for example, (1) The above-mentioned coupling agent or a water or alcohol solution thereof is mixed while stirring the tin oxide powder in a high-speed stirrer such as a Henschel mixer. Add the above coupling agent, or these water or alcohol solution to the slurry in which the tin oxide powder is dispersed in water while stirring. In addition, there are wet methods such as filtration, washing, and drying after sufficient stirring, and any of them may be used.
[0015]
The dispersion of the present invention preferably contains 10 to 70% by weight, more preferably 15 to 50% by weight, of tin oxide powder coated with an organometallic coupling agent. If the content is less than this range, there will be a problem that sufficient conductivity cannot be increased when a resin component is added to this content and used as a conductive paint. If the amount is too large, it is difficult to obtain an industrially good dispersion. The tin oxide particles are preferably coated on the entire surface with an organometallic coupling agent. However, the tin oxide particles may contain uncoated particles or partially coated particles as long as the object of the present invention is not impaired. Good.
[0016]
The dispersion of the present invention needs to use a dispersant in order to improve the dispersibility and stability of the conductive tin oxide powder blended therein. By simply coating the above-mentioned organometallic coupling agent on tin oxide, it is difficult to sufficiently disperse the tin oxide powder in the organic solvent-based medium even if the amount of coupling agent treated is greatly increased.
[0017]
Dispersing agents include cationic systems such as quaternary ammonium salts, anionic systems such as carboxylates, sulfonates, sulfate esters, phosphate esters, ether types, ether ester types, ester types, nitrogen-containing types, etc. Any of these nonionic types may be used, and any nonionic type can be used as long as it adsorbs to the conductive tin oxide powder. Among them, a cationic dispersant is preferable. Usually, since the surface of the conductive tin oxide powder has a negative charge in the solution, if the dispersing agent is cationic, it is electrostatically adsorbed and the effect becomes high. The amount of the dispersant in the dispersion is preferably 0.01 to 20% by weight, more preferably 0.1 to 15% by weight, and still more preferably 0.1 to 10% by weight. When the amount of the dispersing agent is too smaller than the above range, the tin oxide powder tends to aggregate in the dispersion or the conductive paint. When the amount is more than the above range, sufficient coating strength cannot be obtained when the coating is formed, and adhesion to the substrate is deteriorated. Further, the surface of the tin oxide powder is covered with a dispersant which is an insulator, and if the amount is too large, the conductivity is lowered.
In the present invention, one type of dispersant may be used alone, or two or more different types of dispersants may be used in combination. When two or more kinds of dispersants are used in combination, it is more stable to maintain the dispersibility of the conductive powder when producing a conductive paint by using one having a different solubility in an organic solvent-based medium as a dispersion medium. be able to.
