Description

  The present invention relates to an oil-in-water emulsion composition that can be used in the fields of coating agents, paints, inks, adhesives, anticorrosives and fiber treatment agents, and a surface treatment method using the oil-in-water emulsion composition.

In recent years, from the viewpoint of resource saving and environmental conservation, it is considered preferable to contain no organic solvent as much as possible, and interest has been directed to aqueous resin compositions. In particular, an emulsion composition containing a synthetic resin is excellent in drying properties, so that the viscosity can be lowered even if the concentration of non-volatile components is increased. Therefore, emulsion compositions containing synthetic resins are widely used in the fields of coating agents, paints, inks, adhesives, anticorrosives, and fiber treatment agents.
By the way, the cured product obtained from the emulsion composition of styrene acrylic resin or polyvinyl acetate obtained by the emulsion polymerization method is more resistant to water and acid than the cured product of solvent-based resin such as thermosetting resin and ultraviolet curable resin. And base resistance tend to be greatly inferior. Therefore, in order to solve these problems, a crosslinked emulsion composition obtained by utilizing a crosslinking technique or the like has been proposed. Specifically, an epoxy (meth) acrylate resin, a high-boiling polymerizable monomer, a nonionic emulsifier, an anionic emulsifier (however, each emulsifier has only a disclosure of a non-reactive emulsifier), a curing agent and water are included. A crosslinked emulsion composition for high-temperature curing is known (see Patent Document 1). However, when the crosslinked emulsion composition described in Patent Document 1 is used, a step of curing by heat treatment at a high temperature is essential, and cannot be employed in a situation where there is no high-temperature drying facility.
On the other hand, as a cross-linked emulsion composition that can be cured at room temperature, an oil-in-water emulsion composition [A] containing a polyester acrylate resin, a surfactant, a curing agent and water, a polyester acrylate resin, and a curing accelerator And a cross-linked emulsion composition obtained by mixing an oil-in-water emulsion composition [B] containing water (see Patent Document 2).

The polyester film stretched on the glass is for preventing the coating film from sticking to the glass.
The ease of formation of the cured coating film and the water resistance, acid resistance and base resistance of the cured coating film were evaluated according to the following methods. The results are shown in Table 3.

(Ease of forming cured coating film)
After coating the coating solution, the state of the coating film was evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria when left for 24 hours in an environment of a temperature of 23 ° C. and a relative humidity of 50%.
○: A cured coating film was formed and was not sticky even when touched with a finger.
(Triangle | delta): Although the coating film is hardening, when the surface was touched with the finger | toe, the surface was sticky.
X: Uncured.
(Water resistance, acid resistance and base resistance)
A test piece obtained by cutting the cured coating after standing for a total of one week was immersed in water, 10% by volume sulfuric acid, and saturated calcium hydroxide for one week, then taken out, and the test piece was washed with ion-exchanged water. By measuring the weight change, the swelling ratio (unit: mass%) was obtained from the following formula 1, and used as an index of water resistance, acid resistance and base resistance. It shows that water resistance, acid resistance, and base resistance are so high that a numerical value is small.
