Description

The present invention relates to a novel film forming method.

Conventionally, in the exterior of buildings and civil engineering structures, coatings are formed with various coating materials on various substrates for the purpose of protecting the substrates, imparting colors, and the like. In some cases, such a film surface is provided with an uneven pattern or a multicolored pattern from the viewpoint of aesthetics. However, such coated surfaces tend to deteriorate under the influence of sunlight, rainfall, etc. when exposed outdoors for a long period of time. Specifically, discoloration, cracks, and the like may be caused. Therefore, it becomes necessary to repaint the coating surface (existing coating surface) on which such deterioration has occurred.

On the other hand, in recent years, there is a movement to repaint the existing coated surface to improve the appearance and extend the life of the base material. For example, Patent Literature 1 describes a method of restoring the original color tone by polishing a deteriorated portion of the surface of a coating layer of a ceramic exterior wall material and then applying a transparent coating agent.

As an existing coating surface, a ceramic siding boat that has deteriorated due to outdoor exposure (having a tile-like uneven pattern on the surface, a black acrylic resin coating on the recesses, a brown acrylic resin coating on the protrusions, and an acrylic resin coating on the entire surface) (having a silicon-based resin transparent film) was prepared. Coating material 1 as a first coating material was spray-coated on the entire surface of the existing coating so that the dry film thickness (indicated as "film thickness" in Table 1; hereinafter the same) was 38 μm, and dried for 3 hours. , Coating material 2 as a second coating material was spray-coated so as to have a dry film thickness of 38 μm, and dried and cured for 7 days to prepare a specimen. All the coating and curing steps were carried out under standard conditions (temperature 23°C, relative humidity 50%).

[Test I]
Adhesion of the specimens obtained by the above method was evaluated by a cross-cut tape method according to JIS K5600-5-6. The evaluation criteria are "A: defect area less than 10%", "B: defect area 10% or more and less than 30%", "C: defect area 30% or more and less than 50%", "D: defect part area is 50% or more". Table 1 shows the test results.

[Test II]
For the test specimen obtained by the above method, an accelerated weather resistance tester, iSuper UV Tester (manufactured by Iwasaki Electric Co., Ltd.), is used, and 6 hours of light irradiation and 2 hours of condensation (8 hours in total) are used as one cycle, and up to 60 cycles. An accelerated test was performed. At this time, changes in appearance (crack state) of the test piece surface were observed at the end of 20 cycles, 40 cycles, and 60 cycles, and the color difference before and after acceleration was measured. The change in appearance was evaluated in four grades (excellent; A>B>C>D; inferior) of "A: no change" and "D: progress of cracking". The color difference was evaluated as "A: color difference less than 1", "B: color difference 1 or more and less than 3", "C: color difference 3 or more and less than 10", and "D: color difference 10 or more".
