Thereafter, heat treatment such as post-oxidation is performed as necessary. Thereafter, an adhesive is applied to the surface of the thin film layer 14 to form the adhesive layer 16. Thereafter, a polyolefin film is placed on the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 16 and pressure is applied to form the polyolefin layer 18. The hard coat layer 20 forms a coating film by coating a curable resin on the surface of the polyolefin film before or after the polyolefin layer 18 is formed, and performs a curing process on the formed coating film. Can be formed. Thus, the light transmissive laminate 10 can be obtained. In the case where an adhesive is used instead of the adhesive, the adhesive may be cured after coating the adhesive on the surface of the thin film layer 14 and disposing a polyolefin film on the coated film.

  The light transmissive laminate 10 is preferably applied to a window glass of a building such as a building or a house or a window glass of a vehicle such as an automobile. The light-transmitting laminate 10 is disposed on the indoor side, and the surface on which the thin film layer 14 is formed is on the indoor side, and the surface on which the thin film layer 14 is not formed is on the outdoor side. Is pasted. At this time, the light transmissive laminate 10 can be attached to an adherend such as a window glass by the adhesive layer.

  In this way, the light transmissive laminate 10 reflects the solar radiation inserted from the outside by the thin film layer 14, and thus has good solar shielding properties. Moreover, since the air-conditioning effect in a room improves with the thin film layer 14, it has the outstanding heat insulation. The hard coat layer 20 exhibits good scratch resistance, the polyolefin layer 18 disposed between the hard coat layer 20 and the thin film layer 14 relieves squeegee stress during construction, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 16 provides a polyolefin layer. 18 adhesion is ensured. Moreover, since the adhesive layer 16 suppresses salt water corrosion from the end of the thin film layer 14 and the polyolefin layer 18 suppresses salt water corrosion from the surface of the thin film layer 14, deterioration due to salt water corrosion is suppressed.

  In the light transmissive laminate 10, the thin film layer 14 is provided only on one surface of the light transmissive substrate 12. However, the present invention is not limited to this configuration, and the thin film layer is light transmissive. It may be provided on both surfaces of the conductive substrate 12, respectively. In this case, an adhesive layer that is attached to an adherend such as a window glass can be provided on the surface of the thin film layer provided on the other surface of the light-transmitting substrate 12. Moreover, a separator can be provided on the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

  Further, in the light transmissive laminate 10, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 16 is provided in contact with both the thin film layer 14 and the polyolefin layer 18, but adhesion is ensured between the thin film layer 14 and the polyolefin layer 18. If there is, a layer other than the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer may be provided between the thin film layer 14 and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 16 or between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 16 and the polyolefin layer 18. Examples of such a layer include an adhesive layer made of an adhesive and a barrier layer. A barrier layer suppresses that the component of one layer transfers to the other layer. Examples of such a barrier layer include metals and metal oxides.

  The hard coat layer 20 is provided in contact with the polyolefin layer 18, but one or more layers may be provided between the polyolefin layer 18 and the hard coat layer 20 as long as adhesion is ensured. Good. Examples of such a layer include the above-described easy adhesion layer, an adhesive layer, and a barrier layer.

  In the light transmissive laminate 10, the thin film layer 14 is provided in contact with the light transmissive substrate 12.

Examples of such a layer include the above-described easy adhesion layer, an adhesive layer, and a barrier layer.

  In the present invention, a groove may be formed in the thin film layer. A groove part raises surface resistance by dividing the metal thin film contained in a thin film layer, and expresses radio wave transmissivity. The light-transmitting laminate having radio wave permeability does not interfere with radio wave reception when using a cellular phone, a television, an ETC on-board device, or the like indoors or in a vehicle. The groove portion may be formed in a part of the thickness direction of the thin film layer as long as it divides the metal thin film, but from the viewpoint of easily increasing the surface resistance value, the thickness of the thin film layer It is preferable to form the entire direction.

  The width of the groove formed in the thin film layer is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.05 μm or more from the radio wave transmitting surface and 30 μm or less from the visibility surface. The width of the groove portion can be represented by an average value of the widths measured for three portions (total of 15 portions) of the surface of the thin film layer taken by an optical microscope. Further, the surface resistance value of the light transmissive laminate having a groove is preferably 100 Ω / □ or more from the viewpoint of radio wave transmission, and 1000 Ω / □ or less from the viewpoint of solar shading, light transmission, appearance, and the like. The surface resistance value can be measured using an eddy current meter or the like.

  As a method of forming a groove portion in the thin film layer, a method of forming a groove portion by applying laser processing to the thin film layer, or extending a thin film layer formed on a light-transmitting substrate to generate a crack in the thin film layer. And a method of applying a stress to the thin film layer to generate a crack in the thin film layer. Since the cracks are randomly formed, the groove part formed of the cracks tends to be a non-directional groove part. For this reason, the directivity of the surface resistance is difficult to be obtained, and the surface resistance is easily made uniform. As a method for applying a stress for generating a crack in the thin film layer, for example, there is a method of forming a high refractive index thin film of the thin film layer with a metal oxide thin film formed by a sol-gel method.

  In this case, the metal oxide thin film is formed by applying energy such as ultraviolet rays, electron beams, heat and the like to the metal oxide precursor organometallic compound to cause hydrolysis and condensation reaction (sol-gel curing). be able to. When the metal oxide thin film is formed, the curing shrinkage stress of the precursor thin film is accumulated in the thin film. By releasing this stress, a crack can be generated in the thin film layer. In order to easily release the stress, it is preferable to provide a polymer layer containing a polymer material having a low softening temperature between the thin film layer and the light-transmitting substrate. The polymer layer may be formed from a polymer film or a coating film.

  When the polymer layer has a softening temperature lower than the temperature at the time of forming the metal oxide thin film, the hardening shrinkage stress accumulated in the thin film layer is reduced by the polymer layer softening at the time of forming the metal oxide thin film. It is released and a crack is formed in the thin film layer. Even if the polymer layer does not soften during the formation of the metal oxide thin film, the heat shrinkage accumulated in the thin film layer is released by cracking the thin film layer by softening the polymer layer by subsequent heat treatment. Is formed. The softening temperature of the polymer layer is not particularly limited, but it is 140 ° C. or less from the viewpoint of increasing flexibility and easily generating cracks depending on the temperature at the time of sol-gel curing or the temperature at the time of heating. It is preferable that More preferably, it is 120 degrees C or less. On the other hand, the softening temperature of the polymer layer is preferably 40 ° C. or higher from the viewpoint of accumulating a certain amount of curing shrinkage stress in the thin film and then releasing it, thereby facilitating cracking. More preferably, it is 50 ° C. or higher. The softening temperature is a glass transition temperature (Tg) in the case of an amorphous polymer, and a melting point (Tm) in the case of a crystalline polymer, and can be measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). .

  Specific examples of the polymer material for the polymer layer include acrylic resin, phenoxy resin, and butyral resin. Of these, acrylic resins and butyral resins are preferred from the viewpoints of excellent optical properties (transparency) and excellent coating properties. Moreover, a thermoplastic acrylic resin is preferable from the viewpoint of a large change (decrease) in elastic modulus during softening and easy formation of a groove. The thickness of the polymer layer is not particularly limited, but is 0.05 μm or more from the viewpoint of manufacturing, and 1.0 μm or less from the viewpoint of suppressing irregular reflection at the groove due to the sinking of the end of the groove. Is preferred.

  Hereinafter, the metal oxide thin film, organic thin film, metal thin film, and barrier thin film of the thin film layer will be described in detail.

  Metal oxide of thin film layer As metal oxide of thin film, oxide of titanium, oxide of zinc, oxide of indium, oxide of tin, oxide of indium and tin, oxide of magnesium, oxidation of aluminum Products, zirconium oxide, niobium oxide, cerium oxide, and the like. These may be contained alone or in combination of two or more. These metal oxides may be composite oxides in which two or more metal oxides are combined. Among these, titanium oxide, indium and tin oxide, zinc oxide, tin oxide, and the like are preferable from the viewpoint of relatively high refractive index with respect to visible light.

  The metal oxide thin film can be formed by either a vapor phase method or a liquid phase method. The liquid phase method does not need to be evacuated or use a large electric power as compared with the gas phase method. Therefore, it is advantageous in terms of cost, and is excellent in productivity. As the liquid phase method, a sol-gel method can be suitably used from the viewpoint of easily leaving an organic component.

  The metal oxide thin film is mainly composed of the metal oxide described above, but may contain an organic component in addition to the metal oxide. It is because the softness | flexibility of a light transmissive laminated body can be improved more by containing an organic component. Specific examples of this type of organic component include components derived from a material for forming a metal oxide thin film, such as a component derived from a starting material of a sol-gel method.

  More specifically, as the organic component, for example, an organic metal compound (including a decomposition product thereof) such as a metal alkoxide, metal acylate, metal chelate or the like of a metal oxide, or the above organic metal compound Various additives such as an organic compound (described later) that reacts to form an ultraviolet-absorbing chelate can be exemplified. These may be contained alone or in combination of two or more.

  The lower limit of the content of the organic component contained in the metal oxide thin film is preferably 3% by mass or more, more preferably 5% by mass or more, and still more preferably, from the viewpoint of easily imparting flexibility. It is good that it is 7% by mass or more. On the other hand, the upper limit of the content of the organic component contained in the metal oxide thin film is preferably 30% by mass or less, from the viewpoint of easily ensuring a high refractive index and easily ensuring solvent resistance. More preferably, it is 25 mass% or less, More preferably, it is good in it being 20 mass% or less. The organic content can be examined using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) or the like. Moreover, the kind of said organic content can be investigated using infrared spectroscopy (IR) (infrared absorption analysis) etc.

  More specifically, as the sol-gel method, for example, a coating liquid containing a metal organometallic compound that constitutes a metal oxide is coated in a thin film shape, and this is dried as necessary to obtain a metal oxide. Examples include a method of forming a precursor thin film of a thin film and then hydrolyzing and condensing an organometallic compound in the precursor thin film to synthesize an oxide of a metal constituting the organometallic compound. . According to this, a metal oxide thin film containing a metal oxide as a main component and containing an organic component can be formed. Hereinafter, the above method will be described in detail.

  The coating liquid can be prepared by dissolving the organometallic compound in a suitable solvent. In this case, specific examples of the organometallic compound include organic compounds of metals such as titanium, zinc, indium, tin, magnesium, aluminum, zirconium, niobium, cerium, silicon, hafnium, and lead. Can do. These may be contained alone or in combination of two or more.

  Specific examples of the organometallic compound include metal alkoxides, metal acylates, and metal chelates of the above metals. A metal chelate is preferable from the viewpoint of stability in air.

  As the organic metal compound, in particular, a metal organic compound that can be a metal oxide having a high refractive index can be preferably used. Examples of such organometallic compounds include organic titanium compounds.

  Specific examples of the organic titanium compound include M-O-R bonds such as tetra-n-butoxy titanium, tetraethoxy titanium, tetra-i-propoxy titanium, and tetramethoxy titanium (R represents an alkyl group). , M represents a titanium atom) and an acylate of titanium having an M—O—CO—R bond (R represents an alkyl group and M represents a titanium atom) such as isopropoxy titanium stearate. Examples thereof include titanium chelates such as diisopropoxy titanium bisacetylacetonate, dihydroxy bis lactato titanium, diisopropoxy bis triethanolaminato titanium, diisopropoxy bis ethyl acetoacetate titanium, and the like. These may be used alone or in combination. These may be either monomers or multimers.

  The content of the organometallic compound in the coating liquid is preferably from 1 to 20% by mass, more preferably from 3 to 20% from the viewpoint of the film thickness uniformity of the coating film and the film thickness that can be applied at one time. It is good if it exists in the range of 15 mass%, More preferably, 5-10 mass%.

  Specific examples of the solvent for dissolving the organometallic compound include alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, heptanol and isopropyl alcohol, organic acid esters such as ethyl acetate, acetonitrile, acetone and methyl ethyl ketone. Examples thereof include ketones such as tetrahydrofuran, cycloethers such as dioxane, acid amides such as formamide and N, N-dimethylformamide, hydrocarbons such as hexane, aromatics such as toluene, and the like. These may be used alone or in combination.

  At this time, the amount of the solvent is preferably 5 to 100 times the amount of the solid content mass of the organometallic compound from the viewpoint of the film thickness uniformity of the coating film and the film thickness that can be applied at one time. More preferably, the amount is 7 to 30 times, and further preferably 10 to 20 times.

  When the amount of the solvent is more than 100 times, the film thickness that can be formed by a single coating becomes thin, and a tendency to require many coatings to obtain a desired film thickness is observed. On the other hand, when the amount is less than 5 times, the film thickness becomes too thick, and there is a tendency that the hydrolysis / condensation reaction of the organometallic compound does not proceed sufficiently. Therefore, the amount of the solvent is preferably selected in consideration of these.

  The coating liquid is prepared, for example, by mixing an organometallic compound weighed so as to have a predetermined ratio, an appropriate amount of solvent, and other components added as necessary, with a stirring means such as a stirrer for a predetermined time. It can be prepared by a method such as stirring and mixing. In this case, the components may be mixed at a time or may be mixed in a plurality of times.

  In addition, as a coating method of the coating liquid, from the viewpoint of easy uniform coating, a micro gravure method, a gravure method, a reverse roll coating method, a die coating method, a knife coating method, a dip coating method, a spin coating method, a bar coating method, and the like. Various wet coating methods such as a coating method can be exemplified as suitable ones. These may be appropriately selected and used, and one or more may be used in combination.

  Further, when the coated coating liquid is dried, it may be dried using a known drying apparatus. In this case, as the drying conditions, specifically, for example, a temperature range of 80 ° C to 120 ° C, Examples of the drying time include 0.5 minutes to 5 minutes.

  Specific examples of the means for hydrolyzing and condensing the organometallic compound in the precursor thin film include various means such as irradiation with light energy such as ultraviolet rays, electron beams, and X-rays, and heating. can do. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Among these, preferably, irradiation with light energy, particularly ultraviolet irradiation can be suitably used. Compared with other means, it is possible to produce a metal oxide at a low temperature in a short time, and it is difficult to give heat load such as thermal degradation to the light transmissive polymer film (especially in the case of ultraviolet irradiation, This has the advantage of requiring relatively simple equipment.) In addition, there is an advantage that an organic metal compound (including a decomposition product thereof) or the like is easily left as an organic component.

  Furthermore, when a sol-gel method using light energy at the time of sol-gel curing is employed, a rough metal oxide thin film can be obtained as compared with a metal oxide thin film formed by sputtering or the like. Therefore, when a light-transmitting laminate is applied with water to a window glass of a building, even when water remains between the window glass, good water drainage is obtained, and the water application workability is improved. This is because there is an advantage such as being able to be made.

  In this case, specific examples of the ultraviolet irradiator to be used include a mercury lamp, a xenon lamp, a deuterium lamp, an excimer lamp, a metal halide lamp, and the like. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

  Further, the amount of light energy to be irradiated can be variously adjusted in consideration of the type of the organometallic compound mainly forming the precursor thin film, the thickness of the precursor thin film, and the like. However, if the amount of light energy to be irradiated is too small, it is difficult to increase the refractive index of the metal oxide thin film. On the other hand, if the amount of light energy to be irradiated is excessively large, the light transmissive polymer film may be deformed by heat generated during the light energy irradiation. Therefore, these should be noted.

When the light energy to irradiate is ultraviolet rays, the amount of light is preferably from 300 to 8000 mJ at a measurement wavelength of 300 to 390 nm from the viewpoint of the refractive index of the metal oxide thin film, damage to the light transmissive polymer film, and the like. / Cm ² , more preferably in the range of 500 to 5000 mJ / cm ² .

  When light energy irradiation is used as a means for hydrolyzing and condensing the organometallic compound in the precursor thin film, it reacts with the organometallic compound in the coating liquid described above to absorb light (for example, absorbs ultraviolet rays). It is preferable to add an additive such as an organic compound that forms a chelate. When the above additives are added to the coating solution as the starting solution, light energy is irradiated where the light-absorbing chelate has been formed in advance, so that the metal oxide thin film is formed at a relatively low temperature. This is because a high refractive index can be easily achieved.

  Specific examples of the additive include additives such as β diketones, alkoxy alcohols, and alkanolamines. More specifically, examples of the β diketones include acetylacetone, benzoylacetone, ethyl acetoacetate, methyl acetoacetate, diethyl malonate, and the like. Examples of the alkoxy alcohols include 2-methoxyethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol, 2-methoxy-2-propanol, and the like. Examples of the alkanolamines include monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, and triethanolamine. These may be used alone or in combination.

  Of these, β diketones are particularly preferred, and acetylacetone can be most preferably used.

  The blending ratio of the additive is preferably 0.1 to 1 mol of the metal atom in the organometallic compound from the viewpoint of easiness in increasing the refractive index and stability in the state of the coating film. It is good that it is in the range of 2 times mole, more preferably 0.5 to 1.5 times mole.

  The film thickness of the metal oxide thin film can be adjusted in consideration of solar shading, visibility, reflection color, and the like. The lower limit of the thickness of the metal oxide thin film is preferably 5 nm or more, more preferably 10 nm, from the viewpoints of easily suppressing the red and yellow colors of the reflected color and obtaining high transparency. As described above, more preferably, it is 15 nm or more. On the other hand, the upper limit value of the thickness of the metal oxide thin film is preferably 90 nm or less, more preferably 85 nm, from the viewpoints of easily suppressing the green color of the reflected color and easily obtaining high transparency. Hereinafter, more preferably, it is 80 nm or less.

  The organic thin film is light transmissive and has a higher refractive index than the light transmissive substrate. The refractive index refers to the refractive index for light of 633 nm. For example, when the light transmissive substrate is made of a polyethylene terephthalate film, since the refractive index of the polyethylene terephthalate film for light of 633 nm is 1.58, the refractive index of the organic thin film for light of 633 nm is at least 1.59 or more, Preferably it should be 1.60 or more. More preferably, it is 1.65 or more. If it is such a polymer, it will not specifically limit.

  When the organic thin film is provided in contact with the metal thin film, the polymer preferably further has a functional group containing at least one element selected from N, S, and O in terms of excellent interlayer adhesion. . These elements are elements that are strongly associated with the metal in the metal thin film. Due to the functional groups containing these elements, the polymer that forms the organic thin film is in close contact with the metal thin film that is in contact with the organic thin film. The interlayer adhesion is improved. Among N, S, and O, N and S are elements that are strongly associated with Ag, among metals, and an organic thin film made of a polymer having a functional group containing N or S, an organic thin film and a metal thin film containing Ag The interlaminar adhesion is particularly good. Further, among N, S, and O, a polymer containing N and S is preferable in that the refractive index tends to be relatively high.

  Examples of the functional group containing N include a carbazole group, an imide group, and a nitrile group. Among these, a carbazole group, an imide group, and the like are more preferable from the viewpoint of excellent interlayer adhesion between the organic thin film and the metal thin film. Examples of the polymer having a functional group containing N include polyvinyl carbazole (PVK) and polyimide.

Examples of the functional group containing S include a sulfonyl group (—SO ₂ —), a thiol group, and a thioester group. Among these, a sulfonyl group, a thiol group, and the like are more preferable from the viewpoint of excellent interlayer adhesion between the organic thin film and the metal thin film. Examples of the polymer having a functional group containing S include polyethersulfone (PES), polysulfone, and polyphenylsulfone.

  Examples of the functional group containing O include a carboxyl group, an ester group, a ketone group, and a hydroxyl group. Among these, a carboxyl group, an ester group, and the like are more preferable from the viewpoint of excellent interlayer adhesion between the organic thin film and the metal thin film. And as a polymer which has a functional group containing O, an epoxy resin etc. are mentioned.

  The thickness of the organic thin film can be adjusted in consideration of solar shading, visibility, reflection color, and the like. The lower limit of the film thickness of the organic thin film is preferably 5 nm or more, more preferably 10 nm or more, from the viewpoints of easily suppressing the red and yellow colors of the reflected color and easily obtaining high light transmittance. More preferably, it is 15 nm or more.

More preferably, it is 80 nm or less.

  The organic thin film can be formed by preparing a coating solution containing a polymer, applying the coating solution to the surface of a light-transmitting substrate, etc., and then drying to form a coating film. In preparing the coating solution, a solvent for dissolving the polymer can be used as necessary. Examples of such solvents include alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, heptanol, and isopropyl alcohol, organic acid esters such as ethyl acetate, ketones such as acetonitrile, acetone, and methyl ethyl ketone, and cycloethers such as tetrahydrofuran and dioxane. Acid amides such as formamide and N, N-dimethylformamide, hydrocarbons such as hexane, and aromatics such as toluene and xylene. These may be used alone or in combination.

  Metals of the metal thin film include metals such as silver, gold, platinum, copper, aluminum, chromium, titanium, zinc, tin, nickel, cobalt, niobium, tantalum, tungsten, zirconium, lead, palladium, and indium. An alloy etc. are mentioned. These may be contained alone or in combination of two or more.

  As the metal of the metal thin film, silver or a silver alloy is preferable from the viewpoint of being excellent in visible light transmittance, heat ray reflectivity, conductivity, and the like at the time of lamination. More preferably, from the viewpoint of improving durability against environment such as heat, light, and water vapor, the main component is silver, and at least one metal element such as copper, bismuth, gold, palladium, platinum, and titanium is included. It should be a silver alloy. More preferably, a silver alloy containing copper (Ag—Cu alloy), a silver alloy containing bismuth (Ag—Bi alloy), a silver alloy containing titanium (Ag—Ti alloy), or the like may be used. This is because there are advantages such as a large silver diffusion suppression effect and cost advantage.

  In the case of using a silver alloy containing copper, in addition to silver and copper, for example, other elements and inevitable impurities may be contained as long as they do not adversely affect the aggregation / diffusion suppression effect of silver.

  Specific examples of the other elements include elements that can be dissolved in Ag such as Mg, Pd, Pt, Au, Zn, Al, Ga, In, Sn, Sb, Li, Cd, Hg, and As. ; Be, Ru, Rh, Os, Ir, Bi, Ge, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Mn, Re, Fe, Co, Ni, Si, Tl, Pb, etc. in Ag-Cu alloys Element which can be precipitated as a single phase in Y; La, Ce, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ti, Zr, Hf, Na, Ca, Sr, Ba, Sc, Pr, Eu, Ho, Er, Tm Examples include elements capable of precipitating intermetallic compounds with Ag such as Yb, Lu, S, Se, and Te.

  When using a silver alloy containing copper, the lower limit of the copper content is preferably 1 atomic% or more, more preferably 2 atomic% or more, and even more preferably 3 atomic% or more, from the viewpoint of obtaining the effect of addition. It is good to be. On the other hand, the upper limit of the copper content is preferably 20 atomic% or less, more preferably 10 atomic%, from the viewpoint of manufacturability such as easy to ensure high transparency and easy production of a sputtering target. Hereinafter, it is more preferable that it is 5 atomic% or less.

  Further, when using a silver alloy containing bismuth, in addition to silver and bismuth, for example, other elements and inevitable impurities may be included as long as they do not adversely affect the aggregation / diffusion suppression effect of silver. good.

  Specific examples of the other elements include elements that can be dissolved in Ag such as Mg, Pd, Pt, Au, Zn, Al, Ga, In, Sn, Sb, Li, Cd, Hg, and As. ; Be, Ru, Rh, Os, Ir, Cu, Ge, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Mn, Re, Fe, Co, Ni, Si, Tl, Pb, etc., in Ag-Bi alloys Element which can be precipitated as a single phase in Y; La, Ce, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ti, Zr, Hf, Na, Ca, Sr, Ba, Sc, Pr, Eu, Ho, Er, Tm Examples include elements capable of precipitating intermetallic compounds with Ag such as Yb, Lu, S, Se, and Te. These may be contained alone or in combination of two or more.

  When using a silver alloy containing bismuth, the lower limit of the bismuth content is preferably 0.01 atomic% or more, more preferably 0.05 atomic% or more, and still more preferably, from the viewpoint of obtaining the effect of addition. It may be 0.1 atomic% or more. On the other hand, the upper limit of the bismuth content is preferably 5 atomic% or less, more preferably 2 atomic% or less, and still more preferably 1 atomic% from the viewpoint of manufacturability such as easy production of a sputtering target. It is good to be below.

  In addition, when using a silver alloy containing titanium, other than silver and titanium, for example, other elements and inevitable impurities may be included as long as they do not adversely affect the aggregation / diffusion suppression effect of silver. good.

  Specific examples of the other elements include elements that can be dissolved in Ag such as Mg, Pd, Pt, Au, Zn, Al, Ga, In, Sn, Sb, Li, Cd, Hg, and As. ; Be, Ru, Rh, Os, Ir, Cu, Ge, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Mn, Re, Fe, Co, Ni, Si, Tl, Pb, Bi, etc., Ag-Ti system Elements that can be precipitated as a single phase in the alloy; Y, La, Ce, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Zr, Hf, Na, Ca, Sr, Ba, Sc, Pr, Eu, Ho, Er, Tm Examples include elements capable of precipitating intermetallic compounds with Ag such as Yb, Lu, S, Se, and Te. These may be contained alone or in combination of two or more.

  When using a silver alloy containing titanium, the lower limit value of the titanium content is preferably 0.01 atomic% or more, more preferably 0.05 atomic% or more, and still more preferably, from the viewpoint of obtaining an addition effect. It may be 0.1 atomic% or more. On the other hand, the upper limit of the content of titanium is preferably 2 atomic% or less, more preferably 1.75 atomic% or less, and still more preferably, from the viewpoint that a complete solid solution is easily obtained when it is formed into a film. Is preferably 1.5 atomic% or less.

  Note that the proportion of subelements such as copper, bismuth and titanium can be measured using ICP analysis. Further, the metal (including alloy) constituting the metal thin film may be partially oxidized.

  The lower limit of the thickness of the metal thin film is preferably 3 nm or more, more preferably 5 nm or more, and further preferably 7 nm or more from the viewpoints of stability, heat ray reflectivity, and the like. On the other hand, the upper limit value of the thickness of the metal thin film is preferably 30 nm or less, more preferably 20 nm or less, and further preferably 15 nm or less, from the viewpoint of transparency of visible light, economy, and the like.

  Here, as a method of forming the metal thin film, specifically, for example, physical vapor deposition (PVD) such as vacuum deposition, sputtering, ion plating, MBE, laser ablation, thermal CVD, etc. Examples thereof include a vapor phase method such as a chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) such as a plasma CVD method. The metal thin film may be formed using any one of these methods, or may be formed using two or more methods.

  Of these methods, sputtering methods such as a DC magnetron sputtering method and an RF magnetron sputtering method can be preferably used from the viewpoint of obtaining a dense film quality and relatively easy film thickness control.

  In addition, the metal thin film may be oxidized within the range which does not impair the function of a metal thin film by receiving the post-oxidation etc. which are mentioned later.

  The barrier thin film associated with the metal thin film mainly has a barrier function that suppresses diffusion of elements constituting the metal thin film into the metal oxide thin film. Moreover, by interposing between a metal oxide thin film and a metal thin film, it can also contribute to the improvement of adhesiveness of both. The barrier thin film may have discontinuous portions such as floating islands as long as the diffusion can be suppressed.

  Specific examples of the metal oxide constituting the barrier thin film include, for example, titanium oxide, zinc oxide, indium oxide, tin oxide, indium and tin oxide, and magnesium oxide. And aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, niobium oxide, cerium oxide, and the like. These may be contained alone or in combination of two or more. Further, these metal oxides may be double oxides in which two or more metal oxides are combined. The barrier thin film may contain inevitable impurities in addition to the metal oxide.

  Here, the barrier thin film is mainly composed of a metal oxide contained in the metal oxide thin film from the viewpoint of excellent diffusion suppression effect of the metal constituting the metal thin film and excellent adhesion. good.

More specifically, for example, when a TiO ₂ thin film is selected as the metal oxide thin film, the barrier thin film is a titanium oxide thin film mainly composed of an oxide of Ti that is a metal contained in the TiO ₂ thin film. Good to have.

  When the barrier thin film is a titanium oxide thin film, the barrier thin film may be a thin film formed as titanium oxide from the beginning, a thin film formed by post-oxidizing a metal Ti thin film, or It may be a thin film formed by post-oxidizing a partially oxidized titanium oxide thin film.

  The barrier thin film is mainly composed of a metal oxide in the same manner as the metal oxide thin film, but is set to be thinner than the metal oxide thin film. This is because the diffusion of the metal constituting the metal thin film occurs at the atomic level, so that it is not necessary to increase the film thickness to a sufficient level to ensure a sufficient refractive index. Moreover, by forming it thinly, the film formation cost is reduced correspondingly, which can contribute to the reduction of the manufacturing cost of the light-transmitting laminate.

  The lower limit value of the thickness of the barrier thin film is preferably 1 nm or more, more preferably 1.5 nm or more, and further preferably 2 nm or more, from the viewpoint of easily ensuring barrier properties. On the other hand, the upper limit value of the thickness of the barrier thin film is preferably 15 nm or less, more preferably 10 nm or less, and still more preferably 8 nm or less, from the viewpoint of economy and the like.

  When the barrier thin film is mainly composed of titanium oxide, the lower limit value of the atomic molar ratio Ti / O of titanium to oxygen in the titanium oxide is 1.0 / 4.0 or more from the viewpoint of barrier properties and the like. Preferably, 1.0 / 3.8 or higher, more preferably 1.0 / 3.5 or higher, even more preferably 1.0 / 3.0 or higher, most preferably 1.0 / 2.8. It is good to be above.

  When the barrier thin film is mainly composed of titanium oxide, the upper limit value of the atomic molar ratio Ti / O of titanium to oxygen in the titanium oxide is preferably 1.0 / 0.5 or less, more preferably 1.0 / 0.7 or less, more preferably 1.0 / 1.0 or less, even more preferably 1.0 / 1.2 or less, most preferably 1 0.0 / 1.5 or less is preferable.

  The Ti / O ratio can be calculated from the composition of the thin film. As a method for analyzing the composition of the thin film, energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis (EDX) can be suitably used from the viewpoint that the composition of an extremely thin film can be analyzed relatively accurately.

  A specific composition analysis method will be described. First, a test piece having a thickness in the cross-sectional direction of a thin film layer including the thin film to be analyzed is 100 nm or less using an ultrathin section method (microtome) or the like. Next, the position of the thin film layer and the thin film is confirmed with a transmission electron microscope (TEM) from the cross-sectional direction. Next, an electron beam is emitted from the electron gun of the EDX apparatus and is incident on the vicinity of the central portion of the thin film to be analyzed. Electrons incident from the surface of the test specimen enter to a certain depth and generate various electron beams and X-rays. By detecting and analyzing characteristic X-rays at this time, the constituent elements of the thin film can be analyzed.

  As the barrier thin film, a vapor phase method can be suitably used from the viewpoint that a dense film can be formed, and a thin film of about several nm to several tens of nm can be formed with a uniform film thickness.

  Specific examples of the vapor phase method include physical vapor deposition methods (PVD) such as vacuum deposition, sputtering, ion plating, MBE, and laser ablation, thermal CVD, and plasma CVD. Examples thereof include chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and the like. As the vapor phase method, a sputtering method such as a DC magnetron sputtering method or an RF magnetron sputtering method is preferable from the viewpoint of excellent adhesion at the film interface as compared with a vacuum deposition method and the like and easy control of the film thickness. Can be used.

  Each barrier thin film included in the thin film layer may be formed using any one of these vapor phase methods, or may be formed using two or more methods. May be.

  The barrier thin film may be formed as a metal oxide thin film from the beginning by using the above-described vapor phase method, or a metal thin film or a partially oxidized metal oxide thin film is once formed. Later, it can be formed by oxidizing it afterwards. The partially oxidized metal oxide thin film refers to a metal oxide thin film that has room for further oxidation.

  When forming a metal oxide thin film from the beginning, specifically, for example, a gas containing oxygen as a reactive gas is mixed with an inert gas such as argon or neon as a sputtering gas, and the metal and oxygen are mixed. A thin film may be formed while reacting (reactive sputtering method). For example, when the titanium oxide thin film having the Ti / O ratio is obtained by using the reactive sputtering method, the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere (volume ratio of the gas containing oxygen to the inert gas) is the above-described film thickness range. The optimum ratio may be appropriately selected in consideration of the above.

  On the other hand, when a metal thin film or a partially oxidized metal oxide thin film is formed and then post-oxidized later, specifically, after forming the above-described thin film layer on a light-transmitting substrate, the thin film The metal thin film in the layer or the partially oxidized metal oxide thin film may be post-oxidized. Note that the sputtering method or the like may be used for forming the metal thin film, and the reactive sputtering method or the like described above may be used for forming the partially oxidized metal oxide thin film.

  Examples of the post-oxidation technique include heat treatment, pressure treatment, chemical treatment, and natural oxidation. Of these post-oxidation techniques, heat treatment is preferable from the viewpoint of enabling post-oxidation relatively easily and reliably. Examples of the heat treatment include, for example, a method in which a light-transmitting polymer film having the above-described thin film layer is present in a heating atmosphere such as a heating furnace, a method of immersing in warm water, a method of microwave heating, Examples thereof include a method of energizing and heating a metal thin film, a partially oxidized metal oxide thin film, and the like. These may be performed in combination of one or two or more.

  As heating conditions at the time of the heat treatment, specifically, for example, preferably 30 ° C. to 60 ° C., more preferably 32 ° C. to 57 ° C., more preferably 35 ° C. to 55 ° C., heating When present in the atmosphere, the heating time is preferably selected from 5 days or longer, more preferably 10 days or longer, and even more preferably 15 days or longer. This is because the post-oxidation effect, the thermal deformation / fusing suppression of the light transmissive polymer film 12 and the like are good within the above heating condition range.

  The heating atmosphere during the heat treatment is preferably an atmosphere containing oxygen or moisture, such as in the air, a high oxygen atmosphere, or a high humidity atmosphere. Particularly preferably, it is in the air from the viewpoint of manufacturability and cost reduction.

  When the above-mentioned post-oxidation thin film is included in the thin film layer, since the moisture and oxygen contained in the metal oxide thin film are consumed during post-oxidation, the metal oxide is exposed to sunlight. The thin film becomes difficult to chemically react. Specifically, for example, when the metal oxide thin film is formed by a sol-gel method, the water and oxygen contained in the metal oxide thin film are consumed during post-oxidation. The starting material (metal alkoxide, etc.) by the sol-gel method remaining in the thin film and moisture (adsorbed water, etc.), oxygen, etc. are difficult to undergo a sol-gel curing reaction by sunlight. Therefore, it becomes possible to relieve internal stress caused by volume changes such as curing shrinkage, and it becomes easy to suppress interfacial peeling of the thin film layer, and to improve durability against sunlight.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail using Examples and Comparative Examples.

In the light transmissive laminate according to Example 1, a TiO ₂ thin film (first layer) by a sol-gel method and UV irradiation (titanium oxide thin film / Ag—Cu alloy thin film) is formed on one surface of a light transmissive polymer film. / Titanium oxide thin film (second layer) | A thin film layer in which a TiO ₂ thin film (third layer) by sol-gel method and UV irradiation is sequentially laminated.

  The titanium oxide thin film is formed by thermally oxidizing a metal Ti thin film, and this corresponds to a barrier thin film. This titanium oxide thin film is included in the Ag—Cu alloy thin film as a thin film accompanying the Ag—Cu alloy thin film, and the number of laminated layers is counted.

As a first layer, a TiO ₂ thin film was formed by the following procedure on the surface (PET surface) opposite to the easily adhesive layer surface side of this PET film.

That is, the coating liquid was continuously applied to the PET surface side of the PET film with a gravure roll having a predetermined groove volume using a micro gravure coater. Subsequently, the coating film was dried using an in-line drying furnace to form a precursor film of a TiO ₂ thin film. Subsequently, the precursor film was continuously irradiated with ultraviolet rays at the same linear velocity as that during the coating using an in-line ultraviolet irradiation machine [high pressure mercury lamp (160 W / cm)]. Thereby, a TiO ₂ thin film (first layer) was formed on the PET film by a sol-gel method using ultraviolet energy at the time of sol-gel curing (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as “(sol gel + UV)”).

  Next, each thin film constituting the second layer was formed on the first layer.

That is, a lower metal Ti thin film was formed by sputtering on the first TiO ₂ thin film using a DC magnetron sputtering apparatus. Next, an Ag—Cu alloy thin film was formed on the lower metal Ti thin film by sputtering. Next, an upper metal Ti thin film was formed on the Ag—Cu alloy thin film by sputtering.

Next, as the third layer, a TiO ₂ thin film by (sol gel + UV) was formed on the second layer.

Was made. The cross section of the produced test piece was confirmed with a field emission electron microscope (HRTEM) (manufactured by JEOL Ltd., “JEM2001F”). Then, using an EDX apparatus (resolution of 133 eV or less) (“JED-2300T” manufactured by JEOL Ltd.), an electron beam is emitted from the electron gun of this apparatus, and a titanium oxide thin film (barrier thin film) to be analyzed The elemental element of the titanium oxide thin film (barrier thin film) was analyzed by detecting the incident characteristic X-ray and analyzing it.

Further, the content of the subelement (Cu) in the alloy thin film was determined as follows. That is, under each film forming condition, a test piece in which an Ag—Cu alloy thin film was formed on a glass substrate was separately prepared, and this test piece was immersed in a 6% HNO ₃ solution and eluted with ultrasonic waves for 20 minutes. Then, it measured by the concentration method of ICP analysis method using the obtained sample solution.

  Moreover, the film thickness of each thin film was measured from the cross-sectional observation of the test piece by the said field emission electron microscope (HRTEM) (the JEOL Co., Ltd. make, "JEM2001F").

Next, an ultraviolet curable acrylic resin (manufactured by DIC Corporation, “UVT Clear TEF-046”) was diluted with MEK to a concentration of 20% to prepare a coating solution. Subsequently, the coating liquid was applied to one side of the OPP film, dried, and further irradiated with ultraviolet rays to form a hard coat layer (thickness: 1.5 μm).

(Formation of polyolefin layer)

The types are different. On the other hand, in Example 1, both the material of the hard coat layer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is an acrylic resin, and the hard coat layer and the adhesive layer have a range of 430 to 1818 cm ⁻¹ which is a range in which the thermal conductivity is calculated. All kinds of functional groups having infrared absorption are the same. In Example 2, the materials of the hard coat layer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer are both acrylic urethane resins. Similarly to Example 1, the hard coat layer and the adhesive layer have a range of 430 to 1818 cm, which is a range for calculating the thermal conductivity. All types of functional groups having infrared absorption at ^-1 are the same. In Example 3, the hard coat layer and the adhesive layer have the same part of the functional group (acrylic group) having infrared absorption at 430 to 1818 cm ^−1, which is the range in which the thermal conductivity is calculated. ing. In the reference examples, both are urethane resins, and in the same manner as in Example 1, the functional group having infrared absorption at 430 to 1818 cm ⁻¹ which is the range for calculating the heat transmissivity between the hard coat layer and the adhesive layer.

Moreover, even if the comparative example 1 and Examples 2-3 are compared, the predominance is seen in Examples 2-3 in the range of 430-1200 cm < ^-1 >. As a result, the embodiment is superior in terms of the heat transmissibility. This is because the hard coat layer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (or adhesive layer) are the same in at least a part of the types of functional groups having infrared absorption at 430 to 1818 cm ^−1, which is the range in which the thermal conductivity is calculated. It seems that it was because it was made to become.

This is because the hard coat layer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (or adhesive layer) all have the same types of functional groups having infrared absorption at 430 to 1818 cm ^−1, which is the range in which the thermal conductivity is calculated. It seems that this is because of this.

Especially excellent.

  And compared with Example 3, Examples 1 and 2 are more excellent in scratch resistance because at least a part of the functional groups is an acrylic group. In Example 1, since the hard coat layer is an acrylic resin, the scratch resistance is particularly excellent.
