【発明の所属する技術分野】
本発明は粘着性に優れる表面保護フィルム用エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物に関するものである。さらに詳しくは、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物を粘着層とした自己粘着型表面保護フィルムに関し、合成樹脂板、銘板およびLCD表示体などの表面保護用として、高い初期粘着性を必要とする場合や、印刷加工や真空成形加工、および樹脂板などの加熱処理を伴う場合において良好な易剥離性を有する表面保護フィルムが得られるエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物及びそれよりなるフィルムに関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
表面保護フィルムは、合成樹脂板、銘板およびLCD表示体などの製品(以下被着体と記す)の表面を、加工、輸送、あるいは保管時に生じる傷つき、汚染、腐蝕などを防止することを目的に使用され、被着体の加工後や消費者などが使用する際には剥離除去される。このため、表面保護フィルムは被着体の加工時などでは容易に剥離しない良好な初期粘着性と、被着体の使用時には比較的容易に剥離する易剥離性が要求される。
【0003】
このように表面保護フィルムは、常温で被着体と貼り付けられた状態で運搬、保管されることに留まらず、様々な熱履歴を受ける。例えば、被着体の生産工程で被着体が高温のまま表面保護フィルムを貼付する場合や、被着体に表面保護フィルムを貼付した状態で印刷加工、真空成形などの2次加工を行う場合などが挙げられる。
【0004】
従来、アクリル系粘着剤などを使用せず、フィルム自体に粘着性能を持たせた自己粘着型の表面保護フィルムにはエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体が用いられてきたが、該樹脂は良好な初期粘着性を有する反面、前述の熱履歴を受けた場合、常温ではフィルム表面への移行が困難な比較的分子量の大きなアセトキシ基を有するポリマーが、被着体の極性と加熱処理などの熱履歴によってフィルム表面に移行し、被着体から表面保護フィルムが剥離困難となるいわゆる接着力昂進を生じてしまう場合があり、その改良が望まれている。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明の目的は、前述した問題点に鑑み、被着体に対して十分な初期粘着性を有し、加熱処理などの熱履歴を受けた際にも容易に剥離できる易剥離性を有し、かつ被着体を汚染しない表面保護フィルムが得られるエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物及びそれよりなるフィルムを提供することにある。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは上記課題を解決すべく鋭意検討した結果、特定のエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)に対し、特定のエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)を適量配合することにより、表面保護フィルムの粘着層として用いた場合、良好な初期粘着性を有し、加熱処理後の接着力昂進を大幅に抑制し、かつ非着体の汚染を防止することが可能であることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。
【0007】
すなわち、本発明は、JIS K6730で測定したメルトフローレートが0.5〜30g/10min、酢酸ビニル含量が3〜50質量%であるエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)100重量部に対して、ブルックフィールド粘度計を用いて180℃にて測定した溶融粘度が5〜105mPa・s、酢酸ビニル含量が10〜50質量%であるエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)0.1〜15重量部からなる表面保護フィルム用エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物及びそれよりなるフィルムに関するものである。
【0008】
以下に、本発明について、更に詳細に説明する。
(1)エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)
本発明を構成するエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)は、以下▲1▼、▲2▼を満足するものである。
【0009】
▲1▼メルトフローレート(MFR)
本発明にて用いられるエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)は、JIS K6730によるMFRが0.5〜30g/10min、好ましくは1.0〜20g/10minの物性を示すものである。該MFRが0.5g/10min未満である場合、フィルム加工に供した際に、溶融粘度が高く成形性が劣り好ましくない。また、該MFRが30g/10minを超えるものは溶融張力が小さく、空冷インフレーション成形法、水冷インフレーション成形法、キャスト成形等の際、安定して製膜できないばかりか、フィルムの衝撃強度等が損なわれる恐れがあるため好ましくない。
【0010】
▲2▼酢酸ビニル含量
本発明にて用いられるエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)は、酢酸ビニル含量が3〜50質量%、好ましくは5〜30質量%を示すものである。該酢酸ビニル含量が3質量%未満である場合、表面保護フィルムの粘着層として必須の性能である初期粘着性が十分に得られず好ましくない。また、該酢酸ビニル含量が50質量%を超えるものは、本発明のエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)をブレンドしても、加熱処理後の接着力昂進が大きいため好ましくない。
(2)エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)

【0011】

【0012】
該溶融粘度が5mPa・s未満である場合、表面保護フィルムとして使用した際に、常温雰囲気下においてもフィルム表面にブリードし、初期粘着性を低下させ、被着体の表面をも汚染してしまうため好ましくない。また、該溶融粘度が105mPa・sを超えるものは表面保護フィルムとして、加熱処理を受けた際に接着力が昂進してしまうため好ましくない。
【0013】
▲2▼酢酸ビニル含量
本発明にて用いられるエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)は、酢酸ビニル含量が10〜50質量%、好ましくは12〜42質量%を示すものである。該酢酸ビニル含量が10質量%未満である場合、表面保護フィルムの粘着層として必須の性能である初期粘着性を低下させてしまうため好ましくない。また、該酢酸ビニル含量が50質量%を超えるものは表面保護フィルムの粘着層として、加熱処理後の接着力昂進を十分に抑制することができないため好ましくない。
(3)エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)/エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)の量比
本発明にて用いられるエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)とエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)の配合割合は、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)が100重量部に対して、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)が0.1〜15重量部、好ましくは0.1〜5重量部である。エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)の配合割合が0.1重量部未満の場合、表面保護フィルムの粘着層として加熱処理後の接着力昂進を十分に抑制することができず、また、15重量部を超える場合は被着体を汚染するため好ましくない。
【0014】
また、粘着特性を損なわない範囲内で必要に応じて、他のオレフィン系重合体、例えば、低密度ポリエチレン、高密度ポリエチレン、エチレン・アクリル酸エステル共重合体、エチレン・α―オレフィン共重合体、ポリプロピレンなどを配合したものでもかまわない。
(4)製造方法
本発明のエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物は、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)及びエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)よりなるものであり、そのようなエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物は一般的にエチレンと酢酸ビニルの共重合よりなるものである。そしてその重合方法は、特に限定するものでなく、例えば高圧法によるラジカル重合法を挙げることができる。
【0015】
本発明のエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物は、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(A)のペレットとエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(B)のペレットとをドライブレンドしたものであっても良いし、押出機で溶融混錬したものでも良い。
【0016】
また、本発明のエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体組成物は、必要に応じて酸化防止剤、難燃剤、顔料、粘着付与剤、耐熱付与剤等、表面保護フィルムの粘着層用の樹脂組成物に使用される添加剤を添加したものでもかまわない。

【0017】
なお、本発明のエチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体よりなるフィルムは、例えば低密度ポリエチレン、高密度ポリエチレン、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体、エチレン・アクリル酸エステル共重合体、エチレン・α―オレフィン共重合体、ポリプロピレン、アイオノマー、ビニル系重合体、ポリアミド、ポリエステル、ポリビニルアルコール、エチレン・ビニルアルコール共重合体等からなる基材と接着剤などにより積層することができる。

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]
The present invention relates to an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition for a surface protective film having excellent adhesiveness. More specifically, the present invention relates to a self-adhesive surface protective film using an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition as an adhesive layer, and requires high initial adhesiveness for surface protection of synthetic resin plates, nameplates, LCD displays and the like. Or an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition and a film comprising the same that can provide a surface protective film having good peelability when printing, vacuum forming, and heat treatment such as resin plate are involved. It is.
[0002]
[Prior art]
The purpose of the surface protection film is to prevent the surface of products such as synthetic resin plates, nameplates and LCD displays (hereinafter referred to as adherends) from being scratched, contaminated or corroded during processing, transportation or storage. It is used and peeled off when the adherend is processed or used by consumers. For this reason, the surface protective film is required to have good initial adhesiveness that is not easily peeled off during processing of the adherend and easy peelability that is relatively easy to peel off when the adherend is used.
[0003]
As described above, the surface protective film is not only transported and stored in a state of being attached to the adherend at normal temperature, but receives various heat histories. For example, when the surface protection film is applied at a high temperature in the production process of the adherend, or when secondary processing such as printing or vacuum forming is performed with the surface protection film applied to the adherend. Etc.
[0004]
Conventionally, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer has been used for a self-adhesive surface protective film that does not use an acrylic adhesive or the like and has a self-adhesive performance on the film itself. Although it has adhesiveness, when it receives the above-mentioned heat history, the polymer having a relatively large molecular weight acetoxy group that is difficult to transfer to the film surface at room temperature depends on the polarity of the adherend and the heat history such as heat treatment. There is a case where the surface protective film moves to the film surface and the surface protective film becomes difficult to peel off from the adherend, so that the so-called adhesion strength is increased, and the improvement is desired.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In view of the above-mentioned problems, the object of the present invention is to have sufficient initial adhesiveness to an adherend and easy peelability that can be easily peeled even when subjected to a heat history such as heat treatment. Another object of the present invention is to provide an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition from which a surface protective film that does not contaminate an adherend is obtained, and a film comprising the same.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
As a result of intensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors blended a specific amount of a specific ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) with respect to a specific ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A), When used as a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer for a surface protective film, it has been found that it has good initial pressure-sensitive adhesiveness, greatly suppresses the adhesion strength after heat treatment, and prevents non-adherent contamination. The present invention has been completed.
[0007]
That is, the present invention is based on 100 parts by weight of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A) having a melt flow rate measured by JIS K6730 of 0.5 to 30 g / 10 min and a vinyl acetate content of 3 to 50% by mass. The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) 0.1 having a melt viscosity of 5 to 10 5 mPa · s measured at 180 ° C. using a Brookfield viscometer and a vinyl acetate content of 10 to 50 mass%. The present invention relates to an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition for a surface protective film comprising 15 parts by weight and a film comprising the same.
[0008]
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.
(1) Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A)
The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A) constituting the present invention satisfies the following (1) and (2).
[0009]
(1) Melt flow rate (MFR)
The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A) used in the present invention has physical properties such that the MFR according to JIS K6730 is 0.5 to 30 g / 10 min, preferably 1.0 to 20 g / 10 min. When the MFR is less than 0.5 g / 10 min, the melt viscosity is high and the moldability is inferior when subjected to film processing, which is not preferable. In addition, when the MFR exceeds 30 g / 10 min, the melt tension is small, and in the case of air-cooled inflation molding method, water-cooled inflation molding method, cast molding, etc., not only stable film formation but also impact strength of the film is impaired. Because there is a fear, it is not preferable.
[0010]
(2) Vinyl acetate content The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A) used in the present invention has a vinyl acetate content of 3 to 50% by mass, preferably 5 to 30% by mass. When the vinyl acetate content is less than 3% by mass, the initial adhesiveness, which is an essential performance for the adhesive layer of the surface protective film, is not sufficiently obtained, which is not preferable. In addition, it is not preferable that the vinyl acetate content exceeds 50% by mass, even if the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) of the present invention is blended, the adhesion strength after heat treatment is large.
(2) Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B)
The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) constituting the present invention satisfies the following (1) and (2).
[0011]
(1) Melt Viscosity The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) used in the present invention is a Brookfield defined by the Japan Adhesive Industry Association Standard “Test Method for Hot Melt Adhesive” JAI 74.2 B Method. The melt viscosity measured at 180 ° C. with a mold double cylinder rotational viscometer is 5 to 10 5 mPa · s, preferably 10 2 to 10 4 mPa · s.
[0012]
When the melt viscosity is less than 5 mPa · s, when used as a surface protective film, it bleeds to the film surface even in a normal temperature atmosphere, lowers initial tackiness, and contaminates the surface of the adherend. Therefore, it is not preferable. In addition, a film having a melt viscosity exceeding 10 5 mPa · s is not preferable as a surface protective film because the adhesive strength is increased when subjected to heat treatment.
[0013]
(2) Vinyl acetate content The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) used in the present invention has a vinyl acetate content of 10 to 50 mass%, preferably 12 to 42 mass%. When the vinyl acetate content is less than 10% by mass, the initial adhesiveness, which is an essential performance for the adhesive layer of the surface protective film, is deteriorated. Moreover, it is not preferable that the vinyl acetate content exceeds 50% by mass because the adhesion strength after heat treatment cannot be sufficiently suppressed as an adhesive layer of the surface protective film.
(3) Quantity ratio of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A) / ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A) and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer used in the present invention The blending ratio of the blend (B) is 0.1 to 15 parts by weight of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B), preferably 0.1 to 15 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A). 1 to 5 parts by weight. When the blending ratio of the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) is less than 0.1 part by weight, the adhesion strength after the heat treatment cannot be sufficiently suppressed as the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the surface protective film, and 15 When it exceeds the weight part, the adherend is contaminated, which is not preferable.
[0014]
In addition, other olefin polymers, for example, low density polyethylene, high density polyethylene, ethylene / acrylate copolymer, ethylene / α-olefin copolymer, as long as the adhesive properties are not impaired. It may be blended with polypropylene or the like.
(4) Production method The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition of the present invention comprises an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A) and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B). -The vinyl acetate copolymer composition generally comprises a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate. The polymerization method is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a radical polymerization method by a high pressure method.
[0015]
The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition of the present invention may be one obtained by dry blending ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (A) pellets and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (B) pellets. It may be melted and kneaded with an extruder.
[0016]

【The invention's effect】
The self-adhesive surface protective film using the ethylene-based resin composition of the present invention as an adhesive layer has sufficient initial adhesiveness to an adherend as compared to a conventional one using an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. However, even when subjected to a heat history such as heat treatment, the adhesive strength does not increase and it can be easily peeled off, and the effect of not contaminating the adherend is recognized, and the adherend is protected. It is extremely useful over a wide range including applications where secondary processing such as printing and vacuum forming is performed with a film attached.
