[0017]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, examples (examples) of the pest repellent composition of the present invention will be described. (Examples) a) First, materials for producing the pest repellent composition (hereinafter, also simply referred to as a composition) of the present example will be described. In addition, the kind and ratio of this material can be considered to be substantially the same as the composition of the produced pest repellent composition.

Specifically, the following materials are used as materials used for producing the pest repellent composition. Polybutene (manufactured by NOF Corporation) 50 g Plasticizer DOA (trade name; manufactured by Sekisui Chemical Co., Ltd.) 9 g This DOA is a di-2 represented by the above chemical formula [Chemical Formula 1].
-Ethylhexyl adipate.

Viscosity adjusting agent (anti-sagging agent) Sunwax LEL250 (trade name; manufactured by Sanyo Chemical Co., Ltd.) 1.5 g This viscosity adjusting agent is for adjusting the viscosity to such an extent that sagging of the composition can be prevented. Yes, it is a low molecular weight polyethylene oligomer.

Flame retardant Anflam 3PX (trade name; manufactured by NOF CORPORATION) 8 g This flame retardant is tris (mono-chloropropyl) phosphate represented by the aforementioned chemical formula [Chemical Formula 2].

B) Next, the procedure for producing the pest repellent composition of this embodiment will be described. First, polybutene heated to 130 to 140 ° C. by a gas or an electric heater is put into a manufacturing machine also serving as a hopper equipped with a heater, and
Keep at a temperature of ° C. This manufacturing machine has a cylindrical container around which a heater is arranged, the bottom of the container has a conical shape, and a lower end thereof is provided with a takeout port for the composition and a cock for opening and closing the takeout port. I have.

Next, DOA is charged into the manufacturing machine and stirred. After that, heating is performed by a heater together with stirring. Next, the Infram 3PX is put into the same manufacturing machine. Since this is a flame retardant, the addition of this flame retardant raises the ignition point, making it difficult to ignite in the subsequent manufacturing process and during use of the product.

Next, at about 130 ° C., Sunwax LEL250 is charged into the same machine and stirred for 1 hour. Since the viscosity is adjusted to an appropriate level by this viscosity modifier, sagging during subsequent use is prevented. Thereby, the pest repellent composition of this example is completed.

Thereafter, the cock of the outlet at the bottom of the manufacturing machine is adjusted to put the aliquot into an aluminum tube or a cartridge of the extruder. In this case, since the aluminum foil of the cartridge melts at 140 ° C. or higher, the cartridge is put into the cartridge at a maximum temperature of about 135 ° C.

C) Next, the function and effect of the pest repellent composition of this example will be described. In this embodiment, polybutene is
Add DOA. Further, in this embodiment, the sun wax L
The addition of EL250 increases the viscosity of the composition and prevents sagging. Therefore, for example, even when an electric wire or the like is applied, the composition does not drop.

In order to confirm this, the characteristics of the pest repellent composition of this example were examined. The composition did not solidify at -20 ° C., did not sag at 107 ° C., and had a temperature of 90 to 95 ° C.
Had a remarkable feature that it did not lose heat for 6 and a half hours. In particular, the pest repellent composition of this example does not lose its properties over a long period of time and depends on the environment, but its effect, that is, it can adhere to pests for about 5 years,
Moreover, it is expected that the characteristic of not leaning will continue.

The viscosity of the pest repellent composition of this example was measured as follows because it is difficult to measure the viscosity with a normal viscosity measuring instrument. Inner diameter 6.5cmφ, height 7.3
The pest repellent composition was placed in a 6 cm enamel beaker.
cm and a temperature of 22 ° C. Then, a diameter of 6 cmφ, a length of 30 cm, and a weight of 2
When 2.2 g of an alcohol thermometer that could measure from -50C to 50C was submerged, it took 12 seconds to reach the bottom. In other words, the pest repellent composition of this example has a viscosity such that it takes about 12 seconds to move the distance (6 cm) until the weight reaches the bottom.

In addition, in the present embodiment, the
Since X is added, the flame retardancy is improved, and even when used under normal circumstances, it is difficult to ignite and extremely safe. d) Next, a method for using the pest repellent composition of the present example will be described. i) For example, in factories that use flammable organic solvents (such as thinners), windows are opened to emit organic solvents. When the windows are open, birds such as pigeons can pass through these windows. They invade and pollute the factory with feces. As a countermeasure, for example, it is conceivable to use an explosion-proof ventilation fan, but it is considerably expensive.

Therefore, the pest repellent composition of this embodiment is applied to a lower frame of a factory window or the like. A pigeon or the like has a property of temporarily stopping on a window frame and then penetrating into a factory. Therefore, when the bird stops on a window frame, the composition adheres to the feet of the pigeon. Therefore, even if the dove flies away, the composition is attached to the sole of the dove's feet, and when the dove subsequently descends to the ground,
Sand adheres to the soles of the pigeons. The pigeon is uncomfortable with the condition and will no longer approach the window.

Ii) In addition, birds such as pigeons and crows stop on electric wires and the like, so that birds' feces may fall below them and adhere to automobiles or laundry and become dirty. Therefore, the pest repellent composition of this example, directly to the wire, or,
Cover the wires and apply to the cover.

Therefore, when the birds stop on the electric wire or the cover, the composition adheres to the soles of the feet.
In the same manner as described above, birds do not stay on the electric wire, and it is possible to prevent the filth from attaching to the automobile or the laundry under the electric wire. iii) Furthermore, birds such as pigeons and crows fly on the rooftops and verandas of buildings and condominiums, and pollute their surroundings with feces.

Therefore, the pest repellent composition of this embodiment is applied directly to the roof or veranda of a building or condominium, or onto a table, board, sheet or the like. Therefore, when birds fly to the roof or veranda of a building or condominium, the composition adheres to the soles of their feet.
In the same manner as in i) and ii), birds can be prevented from flying and soiling the roof and veranda can be prevented.

Iv) Further, for example, when the pest repellent composition is applied to a bend ladder of an apartment for a long time, when the futon or laundry is dried, the composition adheres to the futon or laundry. May be. Therefore, after birds fly, a device that can easily remove the composition is desired.

As a countermeasure, there is the following method.
First, as shown in FIG. 1, a cushion material 2 made of a sponge or the like used for closing a gap is attached to a surface of a veranda 1, for example. Since one surface of the cushion material 2 is an adhesive surface, the release paper can be peeled off and the cushion material 2 can be easily attached.

Next, a double-sided tape 3 is attached to the surface of the cushion material 2. Next, the pest repellent composition 4 is applied to the upper side of the double-sided tape 3. In this case, the pest repellent composition 4 can be removed only by peeling off the cushion material 2.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment at all, and it goes without saying that the present invention can be implemented in various modes without departing from the gist of the present invention. (1) For example, in the above-described embodiment, the flame retardant is added to the composition. However, when the composition is used in a place where the possibility of ignition is small (for example, a place where the temperature is low) or where there is no danger even if the fire occurs. Alternatively, if sufficient measures are taken against ignition, the flame retardant can be omitted.

When no flame retardant is used, for example, 1 g of the DOA is added. This softens the pest repellent composition somewhat, but does not hinder practical use. (2) The composition for repelling pests of the present invention is effective in repelling birds such as pigeons, sparrows, and crows, but is also effective in repelling animals such as cats and rats.

[0038]

As described in detail above, according to the present invention,
By applying, for example, a pest repellent composition to windows, electric wires, rooftops, verandas, etc., flying of pigeons and crows can be prevented.

Further, the effect of the pest repellent composition of the present invention is advantageous in that it is long-lasting. Further, since the use of the viscosity modifier can prevent dripping, it is effective even when there is a possibility that the electric wire or the like may fall. In addition, the use of a flame retardant reduces the possibility of ignition and is effective in terms of fire prevention.
