Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a transparent gas-barrier laminated film and a method for producing the same, and more specifically to optical isotropy, flatness, solvent resistance, water vapor barrier property, gas barrier property and flexibility. In addition to the excellent characteristics,
The present invention relates to a transparent gas barrier laminate film having good adhesion between layers, a liquid crystal display device, a photoconductive photoreceptor,
It can be used as a surface light emitter, a transparent substrate for optics such as organic electroluminescence, and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A glass substrate is generally used as a transparent substrate which has been increasingly applied to liquid crystal display devices and the like. However, in recent years, in addition to demands for weight reduction and enlargement of liquid crystal display elements, advanced requirements such as long-term reliability, freedom of shape, and curved surface display have been made. A film substrate made of transparent plastic or the like has been studied in place of a transparent glass substrate. In addition, the plastic substrate not only meets the above-mentioned requirements but also has a roll-to-roll system, so that it is advantageous in terms of productivity and cost reduction as compared with a glass substrate.

A transparent substrate having such a transparent plastic as a substrate and further improving the adhesiveness between a plastic film and an oxygen gas barrier layer made of a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin and further having a water vapor gas barrier property is disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 52002/1993. It is described in, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-52003.

However, these have insufficient solvent resistance because polyvinyl alcohol is laminated on the outermost layer. Since solvent resistance is particularly required at the time of washing with an organic solvent in the liquid crystal cell manufacturing process and at the time of forming an alignment film, it is necessary to further provide a solvent resistant film on the transparent substrate, which results in a high cost.

[0005]

In the case of a transparent substrate such as a liquid crystal display element, there are the following requirements or problems regarding the characteristics in addition to the above requirements for solvent resistance.

If the substrate has low transparency or has birefringence, problems such as coloring of display and deterioration of contrast occur.

When the flatness is low, the gap of the liquid crystal layer is not uniform, and the liquid crystal alignment is uneven.
Since the substrate itself also has optical unevenness, the display color also has unevenness.

Further, when a substrate having a poor oxygen gas barrier property and a water vapor barrier property is used, air and water vapor permeate and bubbles are generated inside the liquid crystal cell, which becomes a display impossible point and deteriorates the display quality of the display. This drawback becomes easy to occur and becomes a serious problem, especially under harsh conditions such as vehicle mounting.

Furthermore, since the flatness, transparency, and gas barrier property of these materials are easily deteriorated by mechanical and thermal influences, practicality utilizing the features of lightness and thinness, freedom of shape, and curved surface display is achieved. This makes it difficult to adapt to applications such as pagers, mobile phones, electronic organizers, and pen input devices that are greatly affected by external influences. In particular, in order to maintain such characteristics with respect to mechanical influence, good adhesion between the laminated layers is also required for manifesting the characteristics.

The present invention is intended to solve such a problem, and in a transparent gas barrier laminate film having a metal oxide layer having excellent gas barrier properties, it has excellent solvent resistance and, as described above, It is an object of the present invention to provide a transparent gas barrier laminate film which is excellent in transparency, optical isotropy, flatness and water vapor barrier property and has good adhesion between layers.

[0011]

The above object is to provide a (partial) hydrolyzate of a metal oxide layer and a specific alkoxysilane, a (partial) condensate thereof, or a mixture thereof on at least one surface of a transparent polymer film. The present invention has been completed based on the finding that a cured coating layer containing polyvinyl alcohol cross-linked with is achieved by a laminated film sequentially formed.

That is, the present invention relates to a transparent gas barrier laminate film having a metal oxide layer on at least one side of a transparent polymer film, in contact with the metal oxide layer, and on the outside thereof, the following general formula (1) A transparent gas barrier laminate film, characterized in that a cured coating containing polyvinyl alcohol crosslinked by a (partial) hydrolyzate of alkoxysilane, a (partial) condensate thereof, or a mixture thereof is laminated. is there.

[0015]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail.

When used for a transparent electrode of a liquid crystal display, the laminated film of the present invention has transparency such that the light transmittance at 550 nm is 80% or more and the retardation value is 30.
nm or less. If the light transmittance at 550 nm is less than 80%, the image quality is not practically sufficient, and if the retardation value exceeds 30 nm, there are problems in coloring and viewing angle characteristics.

In the present invention, examples of the transparent polymer film include transparent plastic films such as polyester, polycarbonate, polyarylate, polysulfone, and polyethersulfone. Among them, the transparency and the optical anisotropy are preferable. Polycarbonate and polyarylate films are more suitable from the viewpoint of the optical property of less property.

Examples of the metal oxide layer forming the layer A of the present invention include transparent insulating metal oxide layers of silicon, aluminum, magnesium, zinc and the like, and these transparent metal oxide layers are known. It is produced by a vapor phase growth method such as a sputtering method, a vacuum vapor deposition method, an ion plating method, a plasma CVD method, or the like, in which a material is vapor-deposited on a substrate film to form a film. Among them, as the metal oxide of the water vapor barrier layer, silicon oxide is particularly preferable in terms of adhesion to the transparent polymer film and the B layer, transparency, surface flatness, flexibility, film stress, cost and the like. preferable.

The composition of silicon oxide is determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,
It is analyzed and determined by X-ray microspectroscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy, Rutherford backscattering method, etc., but in terms of transmittance in the visible light region, flexibility, etc., the x value in the average composition represented by SiOx is The range of 1.5 ≦ x ≦ 2 is preferable. When the x value is less than 1.5, the flexibility and transparency deteriorate.

The layer A has a thickness of 5 nm to 200 nm.
Is preferable. If the thickness of the layer A is less than 5 nm, it is difficult to form a film uniformly, and a part where the film is not formed is generated, and water vapor permeates from this part, and the water vapor barrier property deteriorates, or the layer is further laminated thereon. When it does, it peels from such a part, and the adhesiveness deteriorates. On the other hand, 20
If it exceeds 0 nm, not only is the transparency poor, but the flexibility is poor and cracks occur, impairing the water vapor barrier property.

The cured coating containing polyvinyl alcohol crosslinked by the (partial) hydrolyzate of alkoxysilane, its (partial) condensate or a mixture thereof, which gives the layer B of the present invention, comprises (a) polyvinyl alcohol, (b) ) A (partial) hydrolyzate of alkoxysilane, its (partial) condensate or a mixture thereof, (c) a curing catalyst, and (d) a polyvinyl alcohol-soluble solvent in the total amount of solvent,
It can be obtained by applying a coating agent composed of a solvent containing 50% by weight or more and heating and curing it.

Here, (a) polyvinyl alcohol means one obtained by partial hydrolysis or complete hydrolysis of polyvinyl ester such as polyvinyl acetate. Among them, the average degree of polymerization is 250 to 3000 and the degree of saponification is Although 70 mol% or more of polyvinyl alcohol is preferably used in the present invention, polyvinyl alcohol having a saponification degree of 95 mol% or more is more preferable from the viewpoint of gas barrier properties. If the average degree of polymerization is less than 250, the durability, particularly water resistance, is poor, and if it exceeds 3000, there is a problem in working such that it is difficult to obtain a smooth coating film because the viscosity becomes large when used as a paint. Further, when the saponification degree is less than 70 mol%, sufficient properties cannot be expected in terms of gas barrier property.

Further, commercially available polyvinyl alcohol usually contains a small amount of sodium acetate. This sodium acetate acts as a condensation catalyst of the (partial) hydrolyzate of alkoxysilane, and thus promotes gelation of the coating agent. Therefore, the content of sodium acetate in polyvinyl alcohol is 1% by weight or less, more preferably 0.5% by weight or less, based on polyvinyl alcohol.

In the present invention, as the alkoxysilane which gives the (partial) hydrolyzate of the alkoxysilane, its (partial) condensate or a mixture thereof, the general formula (1) R ¹ _n —Si (OR ² ) _4-n ... Tetra, tri or dialkoxysilane represented by the formula (1) is preferable. Here, in the formula, R ¹ is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; a vinyl group; or an organic group having one or more groups selected from the group consisting of a methacryloxy group, an amino group, an epoxy group and a mercapto group, and R ² Is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and n is an integer of 0 to 2.

Here, the above-mentioned organic group is an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms which can contain a cyclic structure, and the hydrocarbon group has a part of its carbon atoms as an oxygen atom or a nitrogen atom. It may be substituted with a hetero atom such as an atom.

Examples of such alkoxysilanes include tetramethoxysilane, tetraethoxysilane, tetraisopropoxysilane, tetrabutoxysilane, methyltrimethoxysilane, methyltriethoxysilane, ethyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltrimethoxysilane and vinyltriethoxysilane. , 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 2- (3,4-epoxycyclohexyl) ethyltrimethoxysilane, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, N- (2-aminoethyl ) -3-Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane, dimethyldimethoxysilane,
Examples thereof include vinylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane and 3-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane. Above all, tetraalkoxysilanes such as tetramethoxysilane and tetraethoxysilane are preferable from the viewpoint of gas barrier property and durability of the obtained coating film. These compounds can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

The (partial) hydrolyzate of alkoxysilane and its (partial) condensate are those obtained by partially or entirely hydrolyzing the alkoxysilane, or by condensing part or all of the hydrolyzate. And a condensation product of the condensate and an unhydrolyzed raw material alkoxysilane, which are obtained by so-called sol-gel reaction.

When the alkoxysilane is used, it can be added as a component as it is, or after hydrolysis is carried out in advance, the (partial) hydrolyzate of the alkoxysilane and its (partial) condensate are added. Is also possible.

When the alkoxysilane is hydrolyzed, a usual method, for example, an inorganic acid such as hydrochloric acid, an organic acid such as acetic acid or an alkali such as caustic soda or a method of hydrolyzing only with water can be used. However, when an acid is used, there is a problem that the polyvinyl alcohol contained in the obtained coating film undergoes a dehydration reaction and becomes colored, and in particular, a higher saponification degree having an excellent gas barrier property tends to cause intense coloring. Further, since there is a problem that the coating equipment is corroded by an acid, the method of hydrolysis using only water is preferable. It is also possible to carry out the hydrolysis after mixing the alkoxysilane and the solvent for the purpose of performing the hydrolysis uniformly. Depending on the purpose, it is possible to remove the alcohol and the like after the hydrolysis under heating and / or reduced pressure in an appropriate amount, and then to use, and then to add an appropriate solvent.

As the component (c) curing catalyst, aluminum acetylacetonate, aluminum ethylacetoacetate bisacetylacetonate, aluminum bisacetoacetate acetylacetonate, aluminum di-n-butoxide monoethylacetoacetate, aluminum di-i- Aluminum chelate compounds such as propoxide monomethylacetoacetate; alkali metal salts of carboxylic acids such as sodium acetate, potassium acetate, potassium formate; amine carboxylates such as dimethylamine acetate, ethanol acetoate, dimethylaniline formate; benzyl trimethyl hydroxide Quaternary ammonium salts such as ammonium, tetramethylammonium acetate, benzyltrimethylammonium acetate; tin octoate Metal carboxylates; triethylamine, triethanolamine, amine such as pyridine; and 1,8-diazabicyclo [5,4,0] -7
Undecen can be mentioned. Of these curing catalysts, benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide and 1,8-diazabicyclo [5,5] are particularly preferable from the viewpoints of solubility in the composition, stability, effects as a curing catalyst, and the like.
4,0] -7-undecene and the like. These compounds can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Further, if the catalyst is dissolved in a solvent or a dispersion liquid used for producing the composition and added, the measurement and the handling are easy.

Examples of the component (d) solvent include polyvinyl alcohol-soluble solvents such as dimethylimidazoline and water, as well as various alcohols, ketones, esters, ethers, cyclic ethers, dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide and the like. To be The water used in the present invention is preferably ion-exchanged water or distilled water. Further, it is possible to use not only one kind of these polyvinyl alcohol-soluble solvents and solvents that can be used together but also a mixture of two or more kinds. In this case, it is necessary that the polyvinyl alcohol-soluble solvent is contained in 50% by weight or more in all the solvents.

The components (a) to (d) are preferably used in the following proportions. That is, the amount of the component (b) is 20 parts by weight or more and 200 parts by weight or less with respect to 100 parts by weight of the component (a). Here, the component (b) is R ¹ _n --SiO 2.
It is based on the weight of _{(4-n) / 2} . When the amount of the component (b) is less than 20 parts by weight, the solvent resistance tends to be poor, and when it exceeds 200 parts by weight, the gas barrier property tends to be low and the storage stability of the composition tends to be deteriorated. The more preferable range of the component (b) is 25 parts by weight or more and 150 parts by weight or less.

Further, the component (c) can be varied within a wide range depending on desired curing conditions. However, it is generally from about 0.01 to about 15% by weight, preferably from 0.05% to 10% by weight, based on the solids of the composition. If the addition amount is less than 0.01% by weight, a sufficient curing rate cannot be obtained,
If it exceeds 15% by weight, a precipitate is likely to be generated or a defect is likely to occur when a coating agent is applied.

Further, the component (d) is the components (a) and (b).
40 with respect to 100 parts by weight of the total solid content of (c) and
A range of 0 to 99900 parts by weight is preferably used. When it is less than 400 parts by weight, the storage stability of the composition is deteriorated. On the other hand, when it exceeds 99900 parts by weight, the storage stability of the composition itself is improved, but the solid content in the composition is reduced, and the cured film obtained is The film thickness is limited.

As described above, the coating agent for providing the cured coating of the layer B of the present invention is the above-mentioned components (a), (b),
It contains (c) and (d), and its pH is adjusted to 3 or more and 11 or less. As a result, the film thickness is 2 μm
When the B layer has a light transmittance of 400 nm of not less than 85%, a cured coating having excellent transparency can be obtained. If the pH is less than 3, polyvinyl alcohol produces polyene by a dehydration reaction as described above, and the cured coating is likely to be colored. pH
When it exceeds 11, the reaction between the (partial) hydrolyzate of polyvinyl alcohol and the alkoxysilane and its partial condensate is insufficient, and it is difficult to obtain a transparent cured coating film. The compound used for adjusting the pH is not particularly limited as long as it is basic, but is preferably benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide or 1,8-diazabicyclo [5,4,0].
-7-Undecene. These also act as the above-mentioned curing catalyst.

The above-mentioned component (a) is used as the coating agent.
In addition to (d), various surfactants can be added for the purpose of improving surface smoothness, and for example, silicone compounds, fluorine-based surfactants, organic surfactants and the like can be used. Further, various epoxy resins, melamine resins, amide resins, colloidal silica and the like which are compatible with the composition of the present invention may be added as a modifier. The additive components other than the components (a) to (d) may be heat resistance, weather resistance, water resistance, durability, adhesiveness, chemical resistance, or the like depending on the application to which the obtained laminated film is applied. It is possible to improve various practical properties of the layer B of the present invention.

When preparing the coating agent which gives the cured coating of the layer B of the present invention, for example, the components (a), (b), (c) and (d) may be mixed at once. In addition, as the component (b), a method in which a treatment such as hydrolysis is performed in advance is used to further mix other components. Both are useful methods for preparing the coating agent, but preferably (a) and (d)
It is preferable that the solution is made uniform by mixing the alkoxysilane with the solution and the component (c) is added to adjust the pH. Moreover, you may heat at each preparation step of a coating agent as needed.

The coating agent for giving the cured coating of the layer B of the present invention is applied on the transparent polymer film on which the layer A is laminated. The method includes dip coating, spray coating, flow coating, roll coating, bar coating, A commonly used method such as spin coating is used. The thickness of the B layer is preferably in the range of 0.01 to 100 μm.
If it is less than 0.01 μm, the gas barrier property is insufficient,
If it exceeds 100 μm, it takes time to cure the film, which is not economically preferable.

The transparent polymer film applied usually evaporates and removes the solvent from room temperature to a temperature not higher than the heat distortion temperature of the film. Then, it is heated and cured at a temperature of 50 to 150 ° C. for 1 minute or more. In this process, the component (a) polyvinyl alcohol in the coating agent is crosslinked by the (partial) hydrolyzate of the component (b) alkoxysilane, etc., and a reaction such as B is formed as a transparent cured film. It is formed.

The cured coating has particularly good adhesion when the metal oxide layer of the layer A is a silicon oxide film, especially a SiOx (1.5≤x≤2) film.

If necessary, the surface of the transparent polymer film and / or the surface of the metal oxide of the A layer is subjected to surface modification such as corona treatment or anchor coat treatment to improve the adhesion between the coatings. It is possible.

As described above, according to the present invention, in addition to the features of excellent transparency, optical isotropy, flatness, solvent resistance, water vapor barrier property, gas barrier property, and flexibility, adhesion between layers is improved. It is possible to provide a transparent gas-barrier laminated film having good properties.
