DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for heat treating polyester films. Polyester films mainly composed of polyethylene terephthalate are widely used for various purposes due to their excellent mechanical and electrical properties, transparency, and dimensional stability. Among these, with the advancement of electronic equipment, flexible printed circuits (hereinafter referred to as
There is a remarkable development in applications such as FPC (FPC). However, with ordinary biaxially oriented polyester films, sufficient relaxation heat treatment is not possible due to film-forming technology constraints. The heat shrinkage rate is still insufficient. It is common knowledge among those skilled in the art that in order to reduce the thermal shrinkage rate sufficiently, heat treatment can be carried out at the required temperature under virtually no tension. It is also well known to those skilled in the art that this is a common occurrence, and that if tension is applied to overcome this problem, the reduction in heat shrinkage will be insufficient. Therefore, in applications that require products with particularly low thermal shrinkage, such as EPC applications, it has been necessary to use methods such as cutting small area sheets and heat-treating them in a hot oven. In the process of studying a method for continuously manufacturing a low heat shrinkage film with good flatness, the present inventors discovered that in order to satisfy the dimensional stability at temperatures required in the manufacturing process for EPC, etc.
Thermal shrinkage rate when heated to 180℃ for 30 minutes with virtually no tension is 0.5% or less in the vertical direction and 0.3 in the horizontal direction.
% or less, and as a result of intensive study on a method for obtaining a polyester film with good flatness while satisfying this characteristic, the present invention was arrived at. An object of the present invention is to provide a heat treatment method for continuously obtaining a polyester film having a heat shrinkage rate of 0.5% or less in the vertical direction and 0.3% or less in the horizontal direction, which is suitable for EPC applications. That is, in the method of the present invention, when a biaxially stretched polyester film is heat treated between a supply roll and a take-up roll, the heat treatment is performed at a heat treatment temperature of T 1 to T 2 ,
A method for heat treating a biaxially stretched polyester film, which is carried out within the following ranges: heat treatment time t1 to t2 and tension P to 0.025 (Kg/ mm2 ). However, T 1 = 210 (℃), T 2 = 240 (℃) logt 1 = 1.623 × 10 -3 A + 1.097 (seconds) logt 2 = 1.623 × 10 -3 A + 0.986 (seconds) logP = -1.30 × 10 -3 A-0.818 (Kg/mm 2 ) A: Film thickness (μm). The polyester film in the present invention is 95
A biaxially stretched film in which more than mol% of polyethylene terephthalate is composed of diol components such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, diethylene glycol, polyalkylene glycol, pentaerythritol, and polyoxyalkylene glycol, terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, and phthalate. Copolymerization of acids, dicarboxylic acids such as 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, adipic acid, and sebacic acid, and oxycarboxylic acids such as p-oxyethoxybenzoic acid, or their diol components, dicarboxylic acid components, and oxycarboxylic acid components. It may be added or blended with a polyester consisting of the like, or it may be added or blended with an inorganic pigment, an organic pigment, an antioxidant, an ultraviolet absorber, etc. Furthermore, the film applied to the present invention may be a composite film. The film used in the present invention has been subjected to normal heat setting, that is, has a heat shrinkage rate of 1% or more and less than 4% when heated at 180°C for 30 minutes in the longitudinal direction of the film. It is of a certain degree. Films with a heat shrinkage rate of 4% or more when heated at 180°C for 30 minutes in the longitudinal direction are difficult to apply, and films without heat setting cannot be used. In the heat treatment of the present invention, the heat treatment temperature is 210
If the temperature is less than t 1 (seconds), the desired low heat loss film cannot be obtained no matter how the time is adjusted, and even at a temperature of 210°C to 240°C, the desired low heat loss film cannot be obtained. On the other hand, if the heat treatment temperature exceeds 240°C, a film with good flatness cannot be obtained no matter how you adjust the time and tension, and even at temperatures between 210°C and 240°C, t2
(seconds), a film with good flatness cannot be obtained no matter how the film tension is adjusted. Note that the heat treatment temperature must be 210 to 240°C as described above, but it is more preferable that the range is 220 to 235°C. Furthermore, if the film tension is less than 0.025 (Kg/mm 2 ), the flatness of the film will be poor and P (Kg/mm 2 )
If it exceeds 20%, the desired low heat shrinkage film cannot be obtained. As described above, the present invention employs a method of heat treating a biaxially stretched film at a specific heat treatment temperature, treatment time, and treatment tension, so that a film with a low heat shrinkage rate and good flatness can be obtained. It has excellent effects. The film of the present invention is preferably used for EPC support films, FPC spacers, EPC cover films, flat packages, flat key labels, control board spacers, connectors, and the like. Next, examples of the present invention will be described. Example Polyethylene terephthalate with an intrinsic viscosity of 0.62 and a softening point of 261°C was dried by a conventional method, melt-extruded,
The films were stretched vertically and horizontally, and heat-set at 225°C to obtain films of various thicknesses. Next, this film
Table 1 shows the results of checking the heat shrinkage rate and flatness when heated at 180℃ for 30 minutes after heat treatment by changing the heat treatment temperature, heat treatment time, and film tension during heat treatment. 5, 8, 9, 11,
15, 16, 17, 18, 22, 23, 27, and 30 are comparative examples, respectively). In Table 1, "vertical" means the length direction of the film, and "horizontal" means the width direction of the film. In addition, the symbols in the flatness column are based on the following classifications. ○: Good flatness △: Film has whitening and reduced transparency ×: Film has sagging over a wide area or locally [Table]
