Description

スクリーン印刷用紗及びスクリーン印刷方法Screen printing bag and screen printing method
 本発明は、スクリーン印刷用紗及びスクリーン印刷方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a screen printing pad and a screen printing method.
 スクリーン印刷においては、被印刷物の上に配置された、スクリーン印刷用紗を有する印刷版の上面に、印刷ペースト(例、インク、導電性ペースト)を供給し、スクリーン印刷用紗の上面をスキージで擦ること(すなわち、スキージング)により、印刷ペーストを、スクリーン印刷用紗を通過させることにより、被印刷物に印刷ペーストを印刷する。 In screen printing, a printing paste (eg, ink, conductive paste) is supplied to the upper surface of a printing plate having screen printing ridges disposed on a substrate, and the upper surface of the screen printing ridge is applied with a squeegee. By rubbing (that is, squeezing), the printing paste is passed through a screen-printing basket to print the printing paste on the substrate.
 スクリーン印刷用紗として、従来、合成繊維フィラメントからなる紗が用いられている。 紗 Conventionally, cocoons made of synthetic fiber filaments are used as screen printing cocoons.
 しかし、合成繊維からなるスクリーン印刷用紗は、印刷時のスキージの擦過等によって帯電し、それによって、埃などの吸着、印刷時の印刷用ペーストの飛散、スクリーン印刷用紗からの印刷用ペーストの抜け性(スクリーン印刷用紗上の印刷用ペーストがスクリーン印刷用紗を通過する際の印刷用ペーストの通過しやすさ)の悪化、印刷用紗から被印刷物に転移した印刷用ペーストの不十分なレベリングなどの問題が発生し、高精度の印刷画像が得られない場合があるという問題、ならびに被印刷物に電子部品が実装されている場合にはこれらの電子部品が電気的に破損する場合があるという問題があった。 However, screen printing jars made of synthetic fibers are charged by squeegee rubbing during printing, etc., thereby adsorbing dust, scattering of printing paste during printing, and printing paste from screen printing jars. Deterioration of slipperiness (ease of passing of printing paste when screen paste passes through screen printing basket), insufficient printing paste transferred from printing pad to substrate Problems such as leveling may occur and high-precision printed images may not be obtained, and when electronic components are mounted on the substrate, these electronic components may be electrically damaged. There was a problem.
 このような問題に対し、合成繊維からなるシート状のスクリーンにスパッタリング加工を施して前記合成繊維上に金属の薄膜の形成させることにより帯電を抑制する技術が提案されている(例えば、特開平3-236962号公報、特開平6-1089号公報、特開平7-285276号公報)。 In order to solve such problems, there has been proposed a technique for suppressing charging by subjecting a sheet-like screen made of synthetic fibers to a sputtering process to form a metal thin film on the synthetic fibers (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 3). No. 236962, JP-A-6-1089, JP-A-7-285276).
 この場合、帯電を防止するためには、スクリーン印刷用紗の印刷時にスキージングされる側の表面上に金属薄膜が形成されていることが必須であると考えられていた。例えば、特開平6-1089号公報では、帯電防止のためには、スクリーン印刷用紗の片面に金属薄膜を形成するよりも、両面に金属薄膜を形成することが好ましいことが、述べられている。 In this case, in order to prevent electrification, it was considered essential that a metal thin film was formed on the surface on the side to be squeezed during printing of the screen printing paddle. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-1089 describes that it is preferable to form a metal thin film on both sides of the screen printing ridge, rather than forming a metal thin film on one side of the screen printing ridge in order to prevent electrification. .
 しかし、このようなスクリーン印刷用紗においては、スキージング時の摩擦により、スキージングされる側の表面上の金属薄膜が擦過等により容易に剥離してしまうので、印刷板の耐久性が低く、また、剥離した金属薄膜が被印刷物に付着する結果、高精度の印刷画像が得られない場合がある、という問題があった。 However, in such screen printing wrinkles, because the metal thin film on the surface to be squeezed easily peels off due to friction during squeezing, the durability of the printing plate is low, In addition, there is a problem that a highly accurate printed image may not be obtained as a result of the peeled metal thin film adhering to the substrate.
 このような金属薄膜の剥離の問題を解決するため、特開平10-86317号公報では、ポリエステル組成物からなる芯成分よりもアルカリ加水分解性の高いポリエステル組成物を鞘成分とした芯鞘構造のモノフィラメントから構成されるメッシュ織物の、前記モノフィラメントの鞘部分が減量率0.1重量%以下であるように粗化されていると共に該粗化表面にスパッタリングによる金属成分含有薄膜が形成されていることを特徴とする印刷用機能性スクリーン紗が提案されている。 In order to solve such a problem of peeling of the metal thin film, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-86317 discloses a core-sheath structure in which a sheath component is a polyester composition having a higher alkali hydrolyzability than a core component composed of a polyester composition. The mesh fabric composed of monofilaments is roughened so that the sheath portion of the monofilament has a weight loss rate of 0.1% by weight or less, and a thin film containing a metal component by sputtering is formed on the roughened surface. A functional screen for printing, which is characterized by the above, has been proposed.
特開平3-236962号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-236962 特開平6-1089号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-1089 特開平7-285276号公報JP-A-7-285276 特開平10-86317号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-86317
 しかしながら、特開平10-86317号公報で提案されている技術では、特殊な合成繊維を使用する必要があるので、製造コストが高くなり、また、原理上、金属薄膜の剥離を完全には抑制できないという問題があった。 However, the technique proposed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-86317 requires the use of a special synthetic fiber, which increases the manufacturing cost and, in principle, cannot completely suppress the peeling of the metal thin film. There was a problem.
 従って、本発明は、低コストで製造でき、高精度の印刷が可能であり、かつ、スキージングに対する耐久性が高いスクリーン印刷用紗及びこれを用いたスクリーン印刷方法を提供することを目的とする。 Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a screen printing ridge that can be manufactured at low cost, enables high-precision printing, and has high durability against squeezing, and a screen printing method using the same. .
 本発明者らは、意外にも、スクリーン印刷用紗のスキージングされる側の表面に金属薄膜を形成しなくとも、被印刷物に対向する側の表面のみに金属薄膜を形成すれば、精密な印刷が可能になり、また、当然ながら、このようなスクリーン印刷用紗の構成によれば、スキージングによる剥離の問題は実質的に完全に抑制されることを見出した。 Surprisingly, the inventors of the present invention do not form a metal thin film on the surface to be squeezed of the screen printing wrinkle, but if a metal thin film is formed only on the surface facing the substrate, it is accurate. It has been found that printing becomes possible and, of course, according to the configuration of such a screen printing ridge, the problem of peeling due to squeezing is substantially completely suppressed.

1.1.スクリーン印刷用紗
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗は、合成繊維から構成され、かつスクリーン印刷においてスキージによって擦られる側の反対側の主面のみが金属薄膜で被覆された紗状織物からなる。
1.1. Screen-printing scissors The screen-printing scissors of the present invention are made of synthetic fibers and are made of a scissor-like woven fabric in which only the main surface opposite to the side rubbed by the squeegee in screen printing is coated with a metal thin film.
1.1.1.紗状織物
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗における紗状織物は、前記合成繊維を経糸及び緯糸として有し、当該経糸及び緯糸は、開口部を形成している。すなわち、当該紗状織物は、網状の形態を有する。当該紗状織物の織り組織は、平組織等の、目ずれが生じ難く、縦横均一な開口面を有する組織が好ましい。当該開口部の孔径は、好ましくは、20~100μmである。当該紗状織物の開口率は、好ましくは、20~70%である。当該紗状織物の線維密度は、好ましくは、50~200本/cmである。
1.1.1. Saddle-like woven fabric The saddle-like woven fabric in the scissors for screen printing of the present invention has the synthetic fiber as warp and weft, and the warp and weft form an opening. That is, the saddle-like woven fabric has a net-like form. The woven structure of the cocoon-shaped woven fabric is preferably a structure such as a flat structure that is less prone to misalignment and has a uniform vertical and horizontal opening surface. The diameter of the opening is preferably 20 to 100 μm. The opening ratio of the cocoon-shaped fabric is preferably 20 to 70%. The fiber density of the cocoon-shaped woven fabric is preferably 50 to 200 / cm.
 前記合成繊維の線径は、好ましくは、10~70μmである。当該線径が細すぎると、当該合成繊維が切断し易く、一方、太すぎると、精密な印刷が困難になる。 The wire diameter of the synthetic fiber is preferably 10 to 70 μm. If the wire diameter is too thin, the synthetic fiber is easily cut, whereas if it is too thick, precise printing becomes difficult.
 これらの紗状織物に関する数値は、本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗が有する数値と実質的に同じである。 The numerical values related to these cocoon-shaped fabrics are substantially the same as the numerical values of the screen printing ridges of the present invention.
 本発明における合成繊維は、好ましくは、ポリエステル繊維である。 The synthetic fiber in the present invention is preferably a polyester fiber.
 当該ポリエステル繊維を構成するポリエステルの例としては、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、変性ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリブチレンテレフタレート、ポリエチレンナフタレート(例、ポリエチレン-2,6-ナフタレート)等が挙げられる。 Examples of the polyester constituting the polyester fiber include polyethylene terephthalate, modified polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate (eg, polyethylene-2,6-naphthalate) and the like.
 前記合成繊維は、好ましくは、モノフィラメントである。 The synthetic fiber is preferably a monofilament.
 前記紗状織物の厚さは、好ましくは、30~80μmである。後記するように、本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗における金属薄膜の厚さは、前記紗状織物の厚さに比べて非常に薄いので、本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗の厚さは、前記紗状織物の厚さと実質的に同じである。 The thickness of the cocoon-shaped fabric is preferably 30 to 80 μm. As will be described later, the thickness of the metal thin film in the screen printing ridge according to the present invention is very thin compared to the thickness of the ridge-shaped woven fabric. It is substantially the same as the thickness of the fabric.
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗をスクリーン印刷に用いる場合、印刷用ペーストが、前記紗状織物の開口部に保持される。この保持量は、前記開口部の孔径及び前記紗状織物の厚さによって異なり、好ましくは、5~70cm/mである。 When the screen printing wrinkle of the present invention is used for screen printing, the printing paste is held in the opening of the wrinkle-shaped fabric. The holding amount varies depending on the hole diameter of the opening and the thickness of the cocoon-shaped woven fabric, and is preferably 5 to 70 cm 3 / m 2 .
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗における、このような紗状織物として、従来、スクリーン印刷用紗として用いられている、合成繊維フィラメントからなる紗を用いることができる。 As such a cocoon-like woven fabric in the screen printing cocoon of the present invention, a cocoon made of synthetic fiber filaments conventionally used as a screen printing cocoon can be used.
1.1.2.金属薄膜
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗における前記紗状織物は、スクリーン印刷においてスキージによって擦られる側の反対側の主面のみが金属薄膜で被覆されている。
1.1.2. Metal thin film In the saddle-like woven fabric in the screen printing ridge according to the present invention, only the main surface opposite to the side rubbed by the squeegee in screen printing is coated with a metal thin film.
 すなわち、本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗において、金属薄膜は、前記紗状織物の一方の主面上にのみ存在し、他方の主面上には存在しない。ただし、本発明の効果が失われない限りにおいて、他方の主面の一部に金属薄膜またはその断片等が存在していてもよく、また、前記紗状織物を構成する合成繊維の側面に金属薄膜またはその断片等が存在していてもよい。このようなスクリーン印刷用紗もまた本発明の範囲内である。 That is, in the screen-printing scissors of the present invention, the metal thin film exists only on one main surface of the scissor-shaped fabric and does not exist on the other main surface. However, as long as the effect of the present invention is not lost, a metal thin film or a fragment thereof may exist on a part of the other main surface, and a metal is formed on the side surface of the synthetic fiber constituting the saddle-shaped woven fabric. A thin film or a fragment thereof may be present. Such screen printing wrinkles are also within the scope of the present invention.
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗における金属薄膜は、好ましくは、スパッタリングによって形成された金属薄膜である。 The metal thin film in the screen printing basket of the present invention is preferably a metal thin film formed by sputtering.
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗における金属薄膜は、好ましくは、アモルファス薄膜である。 The metal thin film in the screen printing basket of the present invention is preferably an amorphous thin film.
 金属薄膜は、前述のような紗状織物の開口部を塞がないように、開口部を有する必要がある。これは、後述の製造方法で説明するように、金属薄膜が紗状織物の主面上に適切に形成される場合、自ずと達成される。当該金属薄膜は、その全体が、電気的に繋がっていて、導電性を有すること、すなわち、分断されていないことが好ましい。 The metal thin film needs to have an opening so as not to block the opening of the saddle-like woven fabric as described above. This is naturally achieved when the metal thin film is appropriately formed on the main surface of the saddle-shaped woven fabric, as will be described in the production method described later. The metal thin film as a whole is preferably electrically connected and conductive, that is, not divided.
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗における金属薄膜を構成する金属の例として、チタン、銀、アルミニウム、スズ、亜鉛、ニッケル、銅、コバルト、クロム、アンチモン、ニオブ等の単体金属;ハステロイ(商標)、パーマロイ、ステンレス鋼、モネル、コバルト系合金等の合金が挙げられる。なかでも、チタン、ステンレス鋼が好ましい。すなわち、本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗における金属薄膜は、好ましくは、チタン薄膜、又はステンレス鋼薄膜である。当該ステンレス鋼薄膜を構成するステンレス鋼の例としては、マルテンサイト系ステンレス鋼、フェライト系ステンレス鋼、オーステナイト系ステンレス鋼等が挙げられる。なかでも、オーステナイト系ステンレス鋼が好ましい(例、SUS310S)。 Examples of the metal constituting the metal thin film in the screen printing basket of the present invention include simple metals such as titanium, silver, aluminum, tin, zinc, nickel, copper, cobalt, chromium, antimony, niobium; Hastelloy (trademark), permalloy And alloys such as stainless steel, monel, and cobalt-based alloys. Of these, titanium and stainless steel are preferable. That is, the metal thin film in the screen printing basket of the present invention is preferably a titanium thin film or a stainless steel thin film. Examples of stainless steel constituting the stainless steel thin film include martensitic stainless steel, ferritic stainless steel, and austenitic stainless steel. Of these, austenitic stainless steel is preferable (eg, SUS310S).
 当該金属薄膜の厚さは、導電性を有する限り特に限定されないが、金属付着量として、好ましくは80μg/cm以下、より好ましくは35μg/cm以下であり、また好ましくは3μg/cm以上、より好ましくは5μg/cm以上である。 The thickness of the metal thin film is not particularly limited as long as it has electrical conductivity. However, the metal adhesion amount is preferably 80 μg / cm 2 or less, more preferably 35 μg / cm 2 or less, and preferably 3 μg / cm 2 or more. More preferably, it is 5 μg / cm 2 or more.
 当該厚さが薄すぎると(すなわち、金属付着量が少なすぎると)、所期の効果が得られにくく、一方、厚すぎると(すなわち、金属付着量が多すぎると)、金属薄膜が開口部に重なって開口率が低下することによって細線印刷性が低下するし、及び製造コストが高くなる。また、当該厚さが薄すぎても、厚すぎても、紗状織物への金属薄膜の密着性(本明細書中、金属密着性と称する場合がある)が低下する。 If the thickness is too thin (that is, if the amount of metal adhesion is too small), the desired effect is difficult to obtain, whereas if it is too thick (that is, if the amount of metal adhesion is too large), the metal thin film will open. As a result, the aperture ratio is reduced and the fine line printability is lowered, and the manufacturing cost is increased. Moreover, even if the said thickness is too thin or too thick, the adhesiveness (it may be called a metal adhesiveness in this specification) of the metal thin film to a saddle-like textiles falls.
 なお、本願明細書及び特許請求の範囲において、金属の付着量は、蛍光X線法に従って測定されたものである。ここで、付着量の数値は、分析した単位面積あたりの付着金属質量として表す。 In addition, in this-application specification and a claim, the adhesion amount of a metal is measured according to the fluorescent X ray method. Here, the numerical value of the amount of adhesion is expressed as the mass of adhered metal per unit area analyzed.
1.1.3.製造方法
 本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗は、例えば、
合成繊維から構成された紗状織物を用意する工程A、及び
当該紗状織物の、スクリーン印刷においてスキージによって擦られる側の反対側の主面を金属薄膜で被覆する工程B
を含む製造方法によって、製造することができる。
1.1.3. Manufacturing method The screen printing paddle of the present invention is, for example,
Step A for preparing a cocoon-like woven fabric composed of synthetic fibers, and Step B for covering the main surface of the cocoon-like fabric opposite to the side rubbed with a squeegee in screen printing with a metal thin film
It can manufacture by the manufacturing method containing.
1.1.3.1.工程A
 工程Aでは、前記で詳細に説明した、合成繊維から構成された紗状織物を用意する。後記の工程Bに供するため、当該紗状織物は、好ましくは長尺である。
1.1.3.1 Process A
In step A, a cocoon-like fabric composed of synthetic fibers described in detail above is prepared. In order to use for the below-mentioned process B, the said cocoon-shaped textiles are preferably long.
 このような紗状織物は、従来、スクリーン印刷用紗として用いられている合成繊維フィラメントからなる紗の製造方法と同様の方法で製造すればよい。 Such a cocoon-shaped woven fabric may be manufactured by a method similar to a method for manufacturing a cocoon made of synthetic fiber filaments conventionally used as a screen printing cocoon.
 ここで、好ましくは、紗状織物を帯電防止処理する。 Here, preferably, the hook-shaped woven fabric is subjected to antistatic treatment.
 帯電防止処理の方法は、例えば、紗状織物の表面への帯電防止剤の噴霧が好ましい。 As the method of the antistatic treatment, for example, spraying of an antistatic agent on the surface of the cocoon-shaped fabric is preferable.
 帯電防止剤は、陰イオン性界面活性剤、陽イオン性界面活性剤、非イオン性界面活性剤、又は両性界面活性剤等の帯電を防止又は抑制する効果を有する従来公知の界面活性剤を主成分として含有するものが挙げられる。 The antistatic agent is mainly a conventionally known surfactant having an effect of preventing or suppressing charging such as an anionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, or an amphoteric surfactant. What is contained as a component is mentioned.
 帯電防止剤の量は、帯電を防止又は抑制できる程度であればよく、通常、紗状織物の重量に対して、1重量%未満である。 The amount of the antistatic agent only needs to be a level that can prevent or suppress the charging, and is usually less than 1% by weight with respect to the weight of the woven fabric.
 帯電防止処理は、好ましくは紗状織物の一方の主面に対して、実施される。なお、帯電防止処理が紗状織物の一方の主面に対して実施した場合は、金属薄膜の紗状織物への密着性の観点から、当該金属薄膜の帯電防止処理面の反対側の面に対してスパッタリングを実施することが、好ましい。 The antistatic treatment is preferably performed on one main surface of the saddle-shaped fabric. When the antistatic treatment is performed on one main surface of the saddle-shaped woven fabric, from the viewpoint of adhesion of the metal thin film to the saddle-shaped fabric, the surface of the metal thin film opposite to the antistatic-treated surface is used. It is preferable to perform sputtering on the substrate.
 合成繊維は表面が疎水性である場合が多く、スパッタリング加工において静電気障害が発生しやすいが、帯電防止処理によって、帯電防止処理面の反対側の面に対してスパッタリングを実施した場合であっても静電気障害を防止又は抑制でき、その結果、本発明のスクリーン印刷用紗の生産性が向上する。 Synthetic fibers often have a hydrophobic surface and are prone to static electricity damage during sputtering processing, but even when sputtering is performed on the surface opposite to the antistatic surface by antistatic treatment. Electrostatic failure can be prevented or suppressed, and as a result, the productivity of the screen printing bag of the present invention is improved.
1.1.3.2.工程B
 紗状織物の一方の主面の金属薄膜での被覆は、好ましくは、スパッタリングによって実施される。スパッタリングは、金属薄膜が紗状織物の開口部を塞がないように実施される。工程Aにおいて紗状織物を帯電防止処理した場合、金属薄膜の紗状織物への密着性の観点から、帯電防止処理面の反対側にスパッタリングすることが好ましい。以下に、一例として、スパッタリングによるステンレス鋼のアモルファス薄膜形成について、図1を参照しつつ、説明する。
1.1.3.2. Process B
The coating of one main surface of the cocoon-shaped fabric with a metal thin film is preferably carried out by sputtering. Sputtering is performed such that the metal thin film does not block the opening of the woven fabric. When the hook-shaped woven fabric is subjected to antistatic treatment in Step A, it is preferable to perform sputtering on the opposite side of the antistatic treated surface from the viewpoint of adhesion of the metal thin film to the hook-shaped woven fabric. Hereinafter, as an example, formation of an amorphous thin film of stainless steel by sputtering will be described with reference to FIG.
 図1は、スパッタリング装置の一例を示す縦断面図であり、密閉可能なケーシング10が水平方向の仕切り板11によって下側のスパッタ室12と上側の織物室13とに分けられ、下側のスパッタ室12の中央にステンレス鋼からなる平板状のターゲット14が中空のターゲットソース15上に固定され、このターゲットソース15に通される冷水によって下面側から冷却されるようになっている。このターゲット14の上方左右にアノード16が水平に設置される。一方、上側の織物室13の下部に水冷シリンダー17が水平に、かつ回転自在に設置され、その下半部が仕切り板11に形成した開口部11aからスパッタ室12内に突出する。そして、織物室13の上部右側に紗状織物Fの送り出し軸18が、また上部左側に紗状織物Fの巻取り軸19がそれぞれ水平に、かつ回転自在に設置され、送り出し軸18に巻かれている紗状織物Fが引出され、右上部のガイドローラ20を経て前記水冷シリンダー17に巻回され、左上部のガイドローラ20を経て巻取り軸19に巻付けられる。なお、スパッタ室12には第2の真空ポンプ21が、また織物室13には第1の真空ポンプ22がそれぞれ接続される。 FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view showing an example of a sputtering apparatus, in which a sealable casing 10 is divided into a lower sputter chamber 12 and an upper fabric chamber 13 by a horizontal partition plate 11, and a lower sputter is formed. A flat plate-like target 14 made of stainless steel is fixed on a hollow target source 15 at the center of the chamber 12, and is cooled from the lower surface side by cold water passed through the target source 15. The anode 16 is horizontally installed above and to the left and right of the target 14. On the other hand, a water-cooled cylinder 17 is horizontally and rotatably installed in the lower part of the upper fabric chamber 13, and its lower half projects into the sputtering chamber 12 from an opening 11 a formed in the partition plate 11. A feeding shaft 18 for the cocoon-shaped fabric F is disposed on the upper right side of the fabric chamber 13 and a winding shaft 19 for the cocoon-shaped fabric F is disposed horizontally and rotatably on the upper left side, and is wound around the feeding shaft 18. The saddle-like woven fabric F is drawn out, wound around the water-cooled cylinder 17 through the guide roller 20 at the upper right part, and wound around the winding shaft 19 through the guide roller 20 at the upper left part. Note that a second vacuum pump 21 is connected to the sputtering chamber 12, and a first vacuum pump 22 is connected to the fabric chamber 13.
 好ましくは、スパッタリングによる金属薄膜での被覆の前に、紗状織物Fを、例えば、100~130℃の乾燥条件下で、水分含有率が0.1重量%以下になるまで、乾燥する。 Preferably, before the coating with the metal thin film by sputtering, the woven fabric F is dried under a drying condition of, for example, 100 to 130 ° C. until the water content becomes 0.1% by weight or less.
 長尺の紗状織物Fは、巻芯上にロール状に巻かれ、この巻芯が密閉可能なケーシング10内に設けられている送り出し軸18に装着され、この送り出し軸18上の巻芯から引出された紗状織物Fの先端が送り出し軸18と平行に設けられている巻取り軸19上の巻芯に固定される。そして、前記の送り出し軸18及び巻取り軸19を回転することにより、紗状織物Fが拡布状態で、かつ所定の速度で前送りされるが、この発明では、前記の紗状織物Fが送り出し軸18及び巻取り軸19の間で冷却され、紗状織物Fの表面温度が好ましくはステンレス鋼の融点(1620~1720°K)の1/2以下、特に好ましくは1/3以下に維持される。この表面温度が前記融点(絶対温度)の1/2を超えた場合は、スパッタリングで形成されるステンレス鋼薄膜が結晶化し、アモルファス薄膜が得難くなる。 The long cocoon-shaped woven fabric F is wound on a winding core in a roll shape, and the winding core is attached to a feeding shaft 18 provided in the casing 10 that can be sealed. From the winding core on the feeding shaft 18 The leading end of the drawn woven fabric F is fixed to a winding core on a winding shaft 19 provided in parallel with the feeding shaft 18. Then, by rotating the feed shaft 18 and the take-up shaft 19, the cocoon-shaped fabric F is fed forward at a predetermined speed in the expanded state. In the present invention, the cocoon-shaped fabric F is fed out. Cooled between the shaft 18 and the winding shaft 19, the surface temperature of the cocoon-shaped fabric F is preferably maintained at 1/2 or less, particularly preferably 1/3 or less of the melting point of stainless steel (1620 to 1720 ° K). The When this surface temperature exceeds 1/2 of the melting point (absolute temperature), the stainless steel thin film formed by sputtering is crystallized, making it difficult to obtain an amorphous thin film.
 前記の紗状織物Fの冷却は、紗状織物Fを大径の水冷シリンダー17に接触させて前送りすることによって行うことができる。また、別法として、小径の多数本の水冷ローラにガイドローラ状に圧接して前送りする方法等が例示される。なお、前記のターゲット14も、水冷その他の冷却手段によって冷却すること、または、放熱性を良好にすることが好ましく、これによってアモルファス薄膜の形成が容易になる。前記のまたは水冷シリンダー14に接して移動する紗状織物Fの片側に紗状織物Fの幅よりも長い棒状のアノード16、及び平板状のステンレス鋼であるターゲット14が、紗状織物Fとターゲット14の間にアノード16が位置するように近接させて、かつ平行に配置され、このアノード16及びターゲット14間に500~1000Vの直流電圧が印加される。なお、ケーシング10内は、あらかじめ密閉状態で減圧され、次いでアルゴンガス等の不活性ガスを導入して1×10-1~1×10-2Pa程度の不活性ガス雰囲気に形成される。 The saddle-like fabric F can be cooled by bringing the saddle-like fabric F into contact with the large-diameter water-cooled cylinder 17 and feeding it forward. Further, as another method, there is exemplified a method in which a large number of small-diameter water-cooled rollers are pressure-contacted in the form of guide rollers and forwardly fed. Note that the target 14 is also preferably cooled by water cooling or other cooling means, or heat radiation is preferably improved, which facilitates formation of an amorphous thin film. The rod-shaped anode 16 longer than the width of the saddle-like fabric F on one side of the saddle-like fabric F moving in contact with the water-cooled cylinder 14 and the target 14 made of flat stainless steel are the saddle-like fabric F and the target. The anodes 16 are arranged so as to be close to each other and parallel to each other, and a DC voltage of 500 to 1000 V is applied between the anodes 16 and the target 14. The inside of the casing 10 is depressurized in a sealed state in advance, and then an inert gas such as argon gas is introduced to form an inert gas atmosphere of about 1 × 10 −1 to 1 × 10 −2 Pa.
