Abstract
Description
中空粒子は、コア粒子の表面に酸化ケイ素のシェルを形成してコア-シェル粒子を得た後、該コア-シェル粒子のコア粒子を溶解させることにより得られる。
そして、塗膜の反射防止効果を高めるためには、中空粒子のシェルの厚さを薄くし、中空粒子の屈折率を下げる必要がある。
しかし、中空粒子のシェルには細孔が形成されているため、中空粒子のシェルの厚さを薄くした場合、バインダーが細孔を通って空洞内に侵入し、中空粒子の屈折率が高くなってしまう問題がある。
一方、バインダーの空洞内への侵入を抑えるために、コア-シェル粒子のコア粒子を溶解させた後にシェルを緻密化させる方法が提案されている(特許文献1、2)。

硬化触媒としては、金属キレート化合物、有機スズ化合物、金属アルコレート、金属脂肪酸塩等が挙げられ、シェルの強度の点から、金属キレート化合物、有機スズ化合物が好ましく、金属キレート化合物が特に好ましい。
硬化触媒の量(金属酸化物換算)は、アルコキシシランの量(SiO2換算)の100質量部に対して0.1~20質量部が好ましく、0.2~8質量部がより好ましい。
原料液の温度が20℃以上であれば、シェルを短時間で形成できる。原料液の温度が80℃以下であれば、コア粒子表面以外で析出する酸化ケイ素の量が抑えられ、反応液がゲル化しにくい。
加熱時間は、原料液の温度に応じて、所望の厚さのシェルが形成される時間に調整すればよく、たとえば、1~500分である。
熱源としては、ウォーターバス、オイルバス、オートクレーブ等が挙げられる。
コア-シェル粒子の分散液を加熱することによって、シェルの緻密化を行う。
分散液の温度は、100~500℃であり、120~300℃が好ましい。
分散液の温度が100℃以上であれば、緻密なシェルを短時間で形成できる。分散液の温度が500℃以下であれば、温度制御しやすい。
加熱時間は、分散液の温度に応じて、所望の緻密さのシェルが形成される時間に調整すればよく、たとえば、10秒~200分である。
熱源としては、オイルバス、オートクレーブ、マイクロ波加熱装置等が挙げられる。
コア粒子が酸溶解性無機粒子の場合、酸を添加することによってコア粒子を溶解、除去できる。
酸としては、無機酸(塩酸、硫酸、硝酸等。)、有機酸(ギ酸、酢酸等。)、酸性カチオン交換樹脂等が挙げられる。
工程(d)
原料液にマイクロ波を照射して原料液を加熱するとともに、アルコキシシランをアルカリまたは酸によって加水分解して、コア粒子の表面に酸化ケイ素を析出させ、シェルを形成し、コア-シェル粒子の分散液を得る。
原料液は、上述の工程(a)と同様の原料を用い、同様の方法によって調製する。
マイクロ波を照射した際に誘電体内部で熱に代わる電力は次式で示される。
P=2πfE2εtanδ
(P:電力、f:周波数、E:電界の大きさ、ε:誘電率、tanδ:誘電正接)
したがって、発生熱量は誘電率と誘電正接の積によって決まるため、誘電率だけでなく誘電正接が大きい材料ほど加熱されやすい。誘電正接は、0.001~1が好ましく、さらに好ましくは0.01~1である。
マイクロ波の出力は、原料液が100~500℃に加熱される出力が好ましく、原料液が120~300℃に加熱される出力がより好ましい。
マイクロ波の照射時間は、マイクロ波の出力(原料液の温度)に応じて、所望の厚さのシェルが形成される時間に調整すればよく、たとえば、10秒~200分である。
工程(e)は、上述の工程(c)と同様の工程である。
以上説明した方法(I)にあっては、比較的低温にてコア粒子の表面に酸化ケイ素を主成分とするシェルを形成しているため、反応液のゲル化が起こりにくい。そして、シェルを形成し、反応液中のアルコキシシランが消費された後に、かつコア-シェル粒子のコア粒子を溶解させる前に、加熱のみによりにシェルを緻密化させているため、シェルの厚さを厚くすることなく、簡便にシェルを緻密化できる。
本発明の塗料組成物は、本発明の中空粒子と、分散媒と、必要に応じてバインダーとを含む。
分散媒としては、水、アルコール類(メタノール、エタノール、イソプロパノール等。)、ケトン類(アセトン、メチルエチルケトン等。)、エーテル類(テトラヒドロフラン、1,4-ジオキサン等。)、エステル類(酢酸エチル、酢酸メチル等。)、グリコールエーテル類(エチレングリコールモノアルキルエーテル等。)、含窒素化合物類(N,N-ジメチルアセトアミド、N,N-ジメチルホルムアミド等。)、含硫黄化合物類(ジメチルスルホキシド等。)等が挙げられる。
本発明の塗料組成物は、本発明の中空粒子以外の中空粒子または中実粒子(中空でない粒子)を、本発明の効果を損なわない範囲で含んでいてもよい。
本発明の塗料組成物は、Mg、Ca、Sr、Ba等の塩化物、硝酸塩、硫酸塩、蟻酸塩、酢酸塩等のアルカリ土類金属塩;無機酸、有機酸、塩基、金属キレート化合物、4級アンモニウム塩、有機スズ化合物等の硬化触媒;紫外線遮蔽性、赤外線遮蔽性、導電性を示す無機粒子;顔料、染料、界面活性剤等の公知の添加剤を含んでいてもよい。
以上説明した本発明の塗料組成物にあっては、屈折率が低く抑えられた本発明の中空粒子を含むため、反射防止効果が高い塗膜を形成できる。
本発明の物品は、本発明の塗料組成物から形成される塗膜が形成されたものである。
塗膜の膜厚は、50~300nmが好ましく、80~200nmがより好ましい。塗膜の膜厚が50nm以上であれば、光の干渉が起こり、反射防止効果が発現する。塗膜の膜厚が300nm以下であれば、クラックが発生せずに製膜できる。
塗膜の膜厚は、塗工および非塗工界面を段差計で測定することによって得られる。
塗膜の屈折率は、1.2~1.4が好ましく、1.23~1.35がより好ましい。塗膜の屈折率が1.2以上であれば、膜の上面で反射される光と下面で反射される光が干渉することで打ち消し合い、反射防止効果が高い塗膜が得られる。塗膜の屈折率が1.4以下であれば、膜の上面で反射される光と下面で反射される光が干渉することで打ち消し合い、ガラスを基材とした場合に反射防止効果が高い塗膜が得られる。該塗膜の最低反射率は、0.0~1.4%が好ましく、0.0~1.0%がより好ましい。
塗膜の屈折率は、分光光度計により測定した最低反射率より算出される。
塗膜は、基材表面に本発明の塗料組成物を塗布し、乾燥することによって形成できる。塗膜は、膜強度の点からは、さらに加熱または焼成されることが好ましく、ガラスの強化工程において焼成されることがコストの点においてより好ましい。
基材の形状としては、板、フィルム等が挙げられる。
本発明の物品には、別の機能層(密着改善層、保護層等)が本発明の効果を損なわない範囲において形成されていてもよい。なお、本発明においては、生産性、耐久性の点から、本発明における塗膜のみが形成されていることが好ましい。
以上説明した本発明の物品にあっては、本発明の塗料組成物から形成される塗膜を有するため、反射防止効果が高い。
例1~6は、実施例であり、例7~10は、比較例である。
(コア粒子および中空粒子の平均凝集粒子径)
コア粒子および中空粒子の平均凝集粒子径は、動的光散乱法粒度分析計(日機装社製、マイクロトラックUPA)を用いて測定した。
コア粒子の材料の誘電率は、ネットワークアナライザを用いて、ブリッジ回路によって試料に電場を印加し、反射係数と位相を測定した値から算出した。
(中空粒子のシェルの厚さおよび平均一次粒子径)
中空粒子のシェルの厚さおよび平均一次粒子径は、中空微粒子を透過型電子顕微鏡(日立製作所社製、H-9000)にて観察し、100個の粒子を無作為に選び出し、各中空微粒子の外殻の厚さおよび粒子径を測定し、100個の中空微粒子の外殻の厚さおよび粒子径をそれぞれ平均して、中空微粒子の外殻の厚さおよび平均一次粒子径を求めた。
(細孔容積の最大値)
比表面積・細孔分布測定装置(ユアサアイオニクス社製、AUTOSORB-1)を用いた。前処理として90℃で15時間真空脱気した後、液体窒素温度下(77.35K)で窒素吸脱着等温線を測定した。窒素吸脱着等温線をDFT法(密度汎関数理論Density Functional Theory)で解析して細孔容積ヒストグラムを求め、細孔容積の最大値を得た。測定は相対圧力P/P0が10e-6~0.995の範囲において等間隔で40ポイント、圧力交差は2、平衡時間は3分とした。中空粒子にはマイクロポア(~2nm)、メソポア(2~50nm)、マクロポア(50nm~)が存在するため、これらの異なる領域の細孔分布に対して区別なく適用できる唯一の解析手法であるDFT法を用いた。また、DFT法によって得られるのは細孔容積ヒストグラムなため、ヒストグラムにおける細孔容積の最大値を評価指標として用いた。
(最低反射率)
380~1200nmにおける、基材上の塗膜の反射率を分光光度計(日立製作所社製、型式:U-4100)で測定し、反射率の最小値(最低反射率)を求めた。
(屈折率)
中空粒子の屈折率(実測値)は、基材上の塗膜の屈折率(計算値)を最低反射率(実測値)より算出し、中空粒子とバインダーとの質量比率より換算した。
中空粒子の屈折率(計算値)は、透過型電子顕微鏡にて観察して得られたシェルの厚さおよび空孔径より算出したシリカと空気の体積比率と、屈折率の積により算出した。
200mLの石英製耐圧容器に、酸化亜鉛(ZnO:誘電率:18)粒子の水分散液(平均凝集粒子径:30nm、固形分濃度:20質量%)の55.6g、TEOS(テトラエトキシシラン:酸化ケイ素換算の固形分濃度:28.8質量%)の6.9g、エタノールの36.9g、28質量%のアンモニア水溶液の0.6gを入れ、pHが10の原料液を調製した。
コア-シェル粒子の分散液の100gに、強酸性カチオン交換樹脂(総交換容量2.0meq/mL以上)の100gを加え、1時間撹拌してpHが4となった後、ろ過により強酸性カチオン交換樹脂を除去し、中空粒子の分散液を得た。該分散液を限外ろ過により固形分濃度20質量%まで濃縮した。
酸化亜鉛粒子の水分散液を62.5g、TEOSを3.5g、エタノールを33.7g、アンモニア水溶液を0.3gに変更し、シェルの緻密化の際の温度を180℃に変更した以外は、例1と同様にして、中空粒子の分散液の100gを得た。該分散液を限外ろ過により固形分濃度20質量%まで濃縮した。
また、例1と同様の操作を行い、粉末状の中空粒子を得た。該中空粒子について、シェルの厚さ、細孔容積の最大値を測定した。結果を表1に示す。
例1と同様にして原料液を調製した。
耐圧容器を密封した後、マイクロ波加熱装置を用い、原料液に最大出力:1000W、周波数:2.45GHzのマイクロ波(MW)を3分間照射し、TEOSを加水分解して、酸化亜鉛粒子の表面に酸化ケイ素を析出させ、シェルを形成し、コア-シェル粒子の分散液の100gを得た。マイクロ波照射中の反応液の温度は180℃であった。
例1と同様の操作を行い、中空粒子の分散液の100gを得た。該分散液を限外ろ過により固形分濃度20質量%まで濃縮した。

200mLの石英製耐圧容器に、酸化亜鉛粒子の水分散液(平均凝集粒子径:70nm、固形分濃度:20質量%)の50.0g、TEOS(酸化ケイ素換算の固形分濃度:28.8質量%)の5.2g、エタノールの44.4g、28質量%のアンモニア水溶液の0.4gを入れ、pHが10の原料液を調製した。

例1と同様にして原料液を調製した。
耐圧容器を密封した後、原料液を20℃で360分間撹拌し、TEOSを加水分解して、酸化亜鉛粒子の表面に酸化ケイ素を析出させ、シェルを形成し、コア-シェル粒子の分散液の100gを得た。
さらに、オイルバスを用い、コア-シェル粒子の分散液を120℃で30分間加熱し、シェルの緻密化を行った。

これは、細孔径が3nm以下の範囲における細孔容積の最大値が0.08mL/g以下であり、緻密なシェルが得られたことによる。その結果、塗膜の粒子比率が低くても高い反射防止性能を示した。
例1と同様にして原料液を調製した。
耐圧容器を密封した後、マイクロ波加熱装置を用い、原料液に最大出力:1400W、周波数:2.45GHzのマイクロ波を10分間照射し、TEOSを加水分解して、酸化亜鉛粒子の表面に酸化ケイ素を析出させ、シェルを形成し、コア-シェル粒子の分散液の100gを得た。マイクロ波照射中の反応液の温度は280℃であった。
例1と同様の操作を行い、中空粒子の分散液の100gを得た。該分散液を限外ろ過により固形分濃度20質量%まで濃縮した。
また、例1と同様の操作を行い、塗料組成物11(固形分濃度1.5質量%、固形分中の中空粒子の割合22質量%)、塗料組成物12(固形分濃度1.5質量%、固形分中の中空粒子の割合40質量%)を得た後、例1と同様に塗膜を形成した。該塗膜の最低反射率を測定した。また、中空粒子の屈折率を求めた。結果を表1に示す。屈折率の実測値と計算値がほぼ一致することより、空洞内へのバインダーの侵入が抑えられたと考えられる。これは、細孔径が3nm以下の範囲における細孔容積の最大値が0.08mL/g以下であり、緻密なシェルが得られたことによる。その結果、塗膜の粒子比率が低くても高い反射防止性能を示した。
シェルの緻密化のための加熱を行わなかった以外は、例1と同様にして、中空粒子の分散液の100gを得た。該分散液を限外ろ過により固形分濃度20質量%まで濃縮した。
また、例1と同様の操作を行い、粉末状の中空粒子を得た。該中空粒子について、シェルの厚さ、細孔容積の最大値を測定した。結果を表1に示す。
シェルの緻密化のための加熱を行わなかった以外は、例4と同様にして、中空粒子の分散液の100gを得た。該分散液を限外ろ過により固形分濃度20質量%まで濃縮した。
また、例1と同様の操作を行い、粉末状の中空粒子を得た。該中空粒子について、シェルの厚さ、細孔容積の最大値を測定した。結果を表1に示す。
酸化亜鉛粒子の水分散液を22.4g、TEOSを10.4g、エタノールを66.3g、アンモニア水溶液を0.9gに変更し、シェルの緻密化の際の温度を180℃に変更した以外は、例1と同様にして、中空粒子の分散液の100gを得た。該分散液を限外ろ過により固形分濃度20質量%まで濃縮した。
また、例1と同様の操作を行い、塗料組成物17(固形分濃度1.5質量%、固形分中の中空粒子の割合22質量%)、塗料組成物18(固形分濃度1.5質量%、固形分中の中空粒子の割合40質量%)を得た後、例1と同様に塗膜を形成した。該塗膜の最低反射率を測定した。また、中空粒子の屈折率を求めた。結果を表1に示す。この中空粒子は、シェルの厚さが6nmとなるように原料液を調整したものである。中空粒子の細孔径3nm以下における細孔容積の最大値が0.009と小さく、かつ、中空粒子の細孔径10~100nmにおける細孔容積の最大値が0.067と極めて小さい。そのため、例9の中空粒子は、空洞内にコア粒子の材料が残存していると考えられ、実際に透過型電子顕微鏡にてコア粒子の残存が確認された。その結果、22重量%における塗膜の最低反射率は、5.03%と反射防止性能は極めて低かった。
例4と同様にして原料液を調製した。
耐圧容器を密封した後、オイルバスを用い、原料液を120℃で30分間加熱した。しかし、原料液がゲル化し、コア-シェル粒子の分散液は得られなかった。
