- thermoplastic resin film is also simply referred to as “film”, and a film having a thickness of 200 ⁇ m or less is also referred to as “thin film”. From the viewpoint of the effect of the embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the thin film is preferably 100 ⁇ m or less and more preferably 50 ⁇ m or less.
- the film conveyance direction is also referred to as MD (Machine Direction) direction.
- the MD direction of the film is also referred to as the longitudinal direction of the film.
- the width direction of a film is a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of a film.
- the width direction of the film is also called a TD (Transverse Direction) direction in a film manufactured while conveying the film.
- MD Machine Direction
- TD Transverse Direction
- the thermoplastic resin film may be made highly functional or composite by laminating a plurality of thermoplastic resin films or laminating a functional layer on the thermoplastic resin film.
- the film In processing such a thermoplastic resin film, the film is usually stretched and heated while being conveyed by a roll or the like.
- wrinkles (wrinkles) arranged in a concavo-convex shape tend to be generated so as to wave in the TD direction of the thermoplastic resin film.
- the following factors can be considered for this phenomenon.
- the elastic modulus in the TD direction is smaller than the elastic modulus in the MD direction. As described above, the thermoplastic film is conveyed by a roll or the like.
- a compressive stress acts in the TD direction by the Poisson effect due to the stress acting in the MD direction such as the transport tension at this time.
- the elastic modulus in the TD direction is smaller than the elastic modulus in the MD direction, the generated compressive stress in the TD direction disturbs the shape of the film in the TD direction, so that it is considered that twisting occurs in the TD direction of the film. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, when the polymer main chain (solid line in FIG. 2) is aligned along the MD direction and the molecular orientation in the MD direction is strong, the space between the main chains is a side chain (see FIG.
- the TD direction of the film only connected by the broken line in 2) has a weaker shape retention force than the MD direction, and the anisotropy of the film strength is increased. Therefore, it is estimated that the film tends to be wrinkled in the TD direction as shown in FIG.
- the molecular orientation in the TD direction is strong (the polymer main chain is aligned in the TD direction)
- the molecular chain becomes a resistance to deformation, and the film is wrinkled in the TD direction. It will be difficult. That is, it is estimated that the ratio of the elastic modulus between the MD direction and the TD direction of the film can contribute to the generation of wrinkles.
- the holding force at the end in the TD direction of the film by the transport roll is strong.
- the film tends to expand at the widths z 1 and z 2 at the end in the TD direction as shown in FIG.
- the holding force at both ends of the film 3 on the surface of the transport roll 4 is strong, the expanded film 3 does not move in the TD direction, and the stress ⁇ x corresponding to the expansion escapes in the film thickness direction. Therefore, it is considered that the film 3 is twisted in the TD direction and buckled as shown in FIG. As a result, it is estimated that wrinkles appear in the TD direction of the film. Since the roughness of the film surface also affects the holding force, it is estimated that it can contribute to the generation of wrinkles.
- the film is cooled and solidified in the TD direction of the film while the wavy wrinkles are generated, so that the unevenness derived from the wavy wrinkles remaining in the film is referred to as streaky in this specification. burr).
- the thermoplastic resin film has streak-like burrs, several harmful effects are likely to occur.
- Detrimental effects include, for example, difficulty in uniformly applying a coating solution on a film, winding failure (winding misalignment, wrinkle, etc.) during film winding, and functional layers such as a laminate layer on the film. In the case of pasting, bubbles may enter between the film and the functional layer.
- Thin thermoplastic resin films have been conventionally used for magnetic tapes, for example.
- a coating solution using an organic solvent as a solvent is generally applied to a film, and the heating temperature to the film required to volatilize and remove the solvent is low (for example, 100 ° C. or less).
- an aqueous solvent a solvent containing water
- the film may be heated at a high temperature of about 150 ° C. to volatilize and remove the aqueous solvent.
- a material that is cured by heating may be laminated on the film.
- the film may be heated to 170 ° C. to 180 ° C.
- streak burrs are caused by the film being deformed into a wrinkle shape due to thermal expansion due to heating of the film and the tension during film transportation, and the film being fixed in the deformed state.
- the generation of streak burrs is a phenomenon that can occur anywhere in the heated process. Specifically, immediately after the molten resin is discharged onto the cooling roll in the film forming process, the film is stretched in the MD direction and then in the TD direction. This is a phenomenon that may occur after stretching, after annealing for removing the residual stress of the film, and after drying treatment after applying a coating solution on the film.
- streak burrs may appear through subsequent annealing or drying.
- wrinkle-like deformation is suppressed by suppressing the transport tension during film transport in each step in the manufacturing process.
- suppressing the conveyance tension is in a trade-off relationship with maintaining good coating property or winding property, and a sufficient improvement effect cannot always be expected only by controlling the tension.
- attempts are made to improve wrinkles and other failures by paying attention to the elastic modulus in one direction of the film surface.
- the inhibitory effect on the occurrence of streak burrs is not sufficient.
- thermoplastic resin film and the manufacturing method thereof of the present disclosure are in view of the above circumstances.
- the streak caused by heating is caused by the film being deformed and waved in the TD direction by the thermal expansion due to the heating of the film and the tension applied to the film during conveyance, and is generated. Therefore, in the thermoplastic resin film of the present disclosure, the elastic modulus E TD in the TD direction is made higher than the elastic modulus E MD in the MD direction, and the temperature dependence of the elastic modulus E TD is kept small.
- the ratio Er 30 of the elastic modulus E TD to the elastic modulus E MD at 30 ° C. is 1.1 to 1.8, the ratio Er 30 at 30 ° C., and the ratio Er 90 at 90 ° C.
- the difference between the maximum value Er max and the minimum value Er min selected from the ratio Er 120 at 120 ° C., the ratio Er 150 at 150 ° C., and the ratio Er 180 at 180 ° C. is 0.7 or less. That is, when the polymer chain is aligned in the MD direction and the molecular orientation in the MD direction is strong, the anisotropy becomes stronger and the twist occurs in the TD direction, and the film is easily buckled and deformed. By arranging the chains in the TD direction and strengthening the molecular orientation in the TD direction, the molecular chain becomes resistant to deformation, and the film is less likely to buckle in the TD direction.
- thermoplastic resin film In manufacturing a thermoplastic resin film, various heating temperatures can be considered during the heat treatment, and anisotropy of elastic modulus is observed in a wide temperature range of 30 ° C, 90 ° C, 120 ° C, 150 ° C, and 180 ° C. Since it is small, the buckling of the film in the TD direction is effectively suppressed. Thereby, generation
- the ratio Er 30 of the elastic modulus E TD to the elastic modulus E MD at 30 ° C. is 1.1 to 1.8. If Er 30 is 1.1 or more, the molecular chain becomes a resistance to deformation and the film is prevented from buckling, so that the generation of streak burrs is suppressed. The higher the value of Er 30 , the higher the suppression effect on the streak burrs can be expected. Moreover, by making Er 30 1.8 or less, molecular orientation in the TD direction does not increase excessively, and film tearing can be suppressed. Er 30 is preferably 1.1 to 1.6 and more preferably 1.2 to 1.4 for the same reason as described above.
- the elastic modulus E MD in the film transport direction and the elastic modulus E TD in the film width direction can be adjusted by the respective stretching ratios of MD stretching and TD stretching, the stretching speed, and the balance between MD and TD. Moreover, in the cooling part of a 2nd extending
- the difference between the selected maximum value Er max and minimum value Er min is 0.7 or less.
- the difference between the maximum value Er max and the minimum value Er min indicates that variation in the ratio of elastic moduli at each temperature is suppressed. Since the difference between the maximum value Er max and the minimum value Er min is 0.7 or less, molecular orientation is preferentially made in the TD direction at any film temperature, and the heating temperature during the heat treatment is wide.
- the difference between the maximum value Er max and the minimum value Er min is preferably as small as possible. Specifically, it is preferably 0.6 or less, more preferably 0.5 or less, and even more preferably 0.4 or less.
- the lower limit of the difference between the maximum value Er max and the minimum value Er min is, for example, 0.1.
- Er 30 , Er 90 , Er 120 , Er 150 , and Er 180 are preferably in the following ranges from the viewpoint of suppressing the difference between the maximum value Er max and the minimum value Er min .
- Er 90 is preferably 1.1 to 1.8, more preferably 1.2 to 1.6, and still more preferably 1.2 to 1.4.
- Er 120 is preferably 1.1 to 1.8, more preferably 1.2 to 1.6, and still more preferably 1.2 to 1.5.
- Er 150 is preferably 0.8 to 1.5, more preferably 0.9 to 1.3, and still more preferably 1.0 to 1.2.
- Er 180 is preferably 0.8 to 1.5, more preferably 0.9 to 1.3, and still more preferably 1.0 to 1.2.
- Adjustment of the elastic modulus ratio at each temperature is performed by adjusting the stretching ratio in the MD direction and the stretching ratio in the TD direction, or stretching in the process of stretching in the TD direction during film production (second stretching process described later). This can be done by adjusting the speed (stretching ratio / second).

- the ratio E TD / elastic modulus E MD ) is a value obtained by the following method. First, a sample piece is punched out from a film to be measured (width 6 ⁇ length 115 mm (JIS K 6251, dumbbell shape No. 5)).
- the obtained sample piece is pulled with Tensilon (manufactured by Toyo Seiki Co., Ltd., Strograph VE50) under the conditions of 50 mm between chucks and a tensile speed of 100 mm / min, and the elongation of the film relative to the load is measured. From the measured values, create a graph with the load on the horizontal axis and the elongation on the vertical axis, and calculate the elastic modulus from the tangent of the rising part of the load-elongation curve. This operation is performed 5 times, and an average value of three points excluding the maximum value and the minimum value is defined as the elastic modulus.
- Temperature control A test piece of the same type and size for temperature measurement is installed near the test piece, a thermocouple is attached to the test piece for temperature measurement, and the temperature at the time of measurement is monitored. (The above “when the film temperature is 30 ° C.” refers to the case where the temperature of the test piece for temperature measurement is 30 ° C. The same applies to other temperatures.) Test start timing: Pulling is started after reaching a desired temperature.

- Ra is 50 nm or less, there is no failure in the appearance, and it is suitable for optical applications.
- the thermoplastic resin film expands in the TD direction during the heating step, but the holding force on the surface of the transport roll at the end in the TD direction of the film is strong, and the expanded film cannot move in the TD direction. Stress tries to escape in the thickness direction.
- the occurrence of streak burrs in the film can be suppressed by adjusting the surface roughness (Ra) of the film to the above range.
- Ra is expected to be more effective in reducing streak burrs as the value increases (that is, the surface becomes rougher).
- Ra is preferably 0.8 nm to 30 nm, more preferably 1 nm to 20 nm, from the viewpoint of effectively reducing streak burrs while suppressing the influence on other properties.
- Ra is adjusted to a desired Ra value by adjusting the stretching speed (stretching ratio / second) in the step of stretching in the TD direction during film production (second stretching step described later) or by adjusting the stretching temperature.

本明細書では、フィルムの搬送方向を「MD」又は「MD方向」と称し、フィルムの搬送方向と直交するフィルムの幅方向を「TD」又は「TD方向」と称する。
薄手の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムは、加熱搬送されると、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムのTD方向に波打つように凹凸状に並ぶシワ(皺)が生じる傾向にある。
この現象には、以下のような要因が考えられる。
(1)MD方向の弾性率に比べてTD方向の弾性率が小さい。
上述のように、熱可塑性フィルムは、ロール等により搬送される。この際の搬送張力等のMD方向に作用する応力によって、ポワソン効果でTD方向に圧縮応力が作用する。MD方向の弾性率に比べてTD方向の弾性率が小さい場合、発生したTD方向の圧縮応力はフィルムのTD方向の形状を乱すため、フィルムのTD方向に撚れが生じると考えられる。つまり、図2に示すように、MD方向に高分子主鎖(図2中の実線)が沿って並んで存在してMD方向の分子配向が強い場合には、主鎖間が側鎖(図2中の破線)で繋がっただけのフィルムのTD方向はMD方向に比べて形状保持力が弱く、フィルムの強さの異方性が強くなる。そのため、フィルムは、図2のように、TD方向にシワ状の変形が生じやすくなると推定される。これに対し、逆にTD方向への分子配向が強い(高分子主鎖がTD方向に並んでいる)場合には、分子鎖が変形の抵抗となり、フィルムはTD方向にシワ状の変形が生じにくくなると考えられる。
即ち、フィルムのMD方向とTD方向との弾性率の比率が、シワの発生に寄与し得るものと推定される。
(2)搬送ロールによるフィルムのTD方向端部での保持力が強い。
加熱工程中では、フィルムは、図3に示すようにTD方向の端部においてz1及びz2の幅で膨張する傾向がある。この際、搬送ロール4の表面におけるフィルム3のTD両端部での保持力が強いと、膨張したフィルム3はTD方向へ動けず、膨張分の応力σxはフィルム厚み方向へ逃げる。そのため、フィルム3は、TD方向に撚れが生じ、図4に示すように座屈すると考えられる。結果、フィルムのTD方向にシワが現れると推定される。
フィルムの表面の粗さも保持力に影響を及ぼすため、シワの発生に寄与し得るものと推定される。
熱可塑性樹脂フィルムが筋状バリを有していると、幾つかの弊害が生じやすい。弊害としては、例えば、フィルム上に塗布液を塗布する場合に均一に塗布しにくくなること、フィルム巻取り時の巻き故障(巻ズレ・巻シワ等)、ラミネート層などの機能層をフィルム上に貼り付ける場合にフィルムと機能層との間に気泡が入ること、等が挙げられる。
上記のようにフィルムを加熱する場合には、フィルムにシワがより発生しやすく、従来に比べて筋状バリの発生が顕著に現れやすい状況にもある。
筋状バリは、フィルムの加熱による熱膨張と、フィルム搬送時の張力と、によってフィルムがシワ状に変形し、変形した状態でフィルムが固定化されることで生じると考えられる。筋状バリの発生は、加熱される工程ではどこでも起こり得る現象であり、具体的には、製膜工程において溶融樹脂を冷却ロール上に吐出した直後、MD方向への延伸後、TD方向への延伸後、フィルムの残留応力を除去するためのアニール処理後、及びフィルム上に塗布液を塗布した後の乾燥処理後等に起こり得る現象である。また、製膜後のフィルムにおいて筋状バリがみられない場合でも、その後のアニール処理又は乾燥処理を経ることで筋状バリが現れる場合もある。
従来より、製造プロセス内の各工程でのフィルム搬送時の搬送張力を抑えることによって、シワ状の変形を抑制することが知られている。しかしながら、搬送張力を抑えることは、良好な塗布性又は巻き取り性等を維持することとのトレードオフの関係になっており、張力の制御のみでは必ずしも充分な改善効果は期待できない。
また、例えば、特開2014-238612号公報及び特開2014-210433号公報に記載のように、フィルム面の一方向の弾性率に着目してシワ等の故障を改善する試みがなされているが、筋状バリの発生に対する抑制効果は充分とはいえない。
加熱に起因して生じる筋状バリは、フィルムの加熱による熱膨張と、搬送時のフィルムに与える張力と、によってフィルムがTD方向に波打つように変形し、固定化されることにより生じる。そのため、本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムでは、TD方向の弾性率ETDを、MD方向の弾性率EMDに対して高くし、かつ、弾性率ETDの温度依存性を小さく抑える。
具体的には、弾性率EMDに対する弾性率ETDの30℃での比Er30を、1.1~1.8とし、かつ、30℃での比Er30、90℃での比Er90、120℃での比Er120、150℃での比Er150、及び180℃での比Er180から選ばれる最大値Ermax及び最小値Erminの差を0.7以下とする。
つまり、高分子鎖がMD方向に並んでMD方向への分子配向が強い場合は、異方性がより強くなってTD方向に撚れが生じ、フィルムが座屈して変形しやすいが、高分子鎖をTD方向に並べてTD方向への分子配向を強めることで、分子鎖が変形に対する抵抗となり、TD方向におけるフィルムの座屈が生じにくくなる。そして、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの製造に際しては、加熱処理時には多様な加熱温度が考えられるところ、30℃、90℃、120℃、150℃及び180℃の広範な温度領域において弾性率の異方性が小さいので、TD方向におけるフィルムの座屈が効果的に抑えられる。
これにより、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの波状のシワ(筋状バリ)の発生が抑制される。
Er30が1.1以上であると、分子鎖が変形に対する抵抗となってフィルムが座屈するのを抑えるので、筋状バリの発生が抑制される。Er30は、値が大きいほど、筋状バリに対して高い抑制効果が期待できる。また、Er30を1.8以下にすることで、TD方向への分子配向が多くなり過ぎることがなく、フィルムの裂けを抑えることができる。
Er30としては、上記と同様の理由から、1.1~1.6が好ましく、1.2~1.4がより好ましい。
最大値Ermax及び最小値Erminの差は、各温度での弾性率の比のバラツキが抑えられていることを示す。最大値Ermax及び最小値Erminの差が0.7以下であることで、いずれのフィルム温度であってもTD方向へ優先的に分子配向がなされており、加熱処理時の加熱温度が広範に亘るような製造プロセスでも、TD方向におけるフィルムの座屈が効果的に抑えられる。
最大値Ermax及び最小値Erminの差は、値が小さいほど好ましく、具体的には、0.6以下が好ましく、0.5以下がより好ましく、0.4以下がより好ましい。
また、最大値Ermax及び最小値Erminの差の下限としては、例えば、0.1である。
Er90としては、1.1~1.8が好ましく、1.2~1.6がより好ましく、1.2~1.4が更に好ましい。
Er120としては、1.1~1.8が好ましく、1.2~1.6がより好ましく、1.2~1.5が更に好ましい。
Er150としては、0.8~1.5が好ましく、0.9~1.3がより好ましく、1.0~1.2が更に好ましい。
Er180としては、0.8~1.5が好ましく、0.9~1.3がより好ましく、1.0~1.2が更に好ましい。
まず、被測定対象であるフィルムから試料片を打ち抜く(幅6×長さ115mm(JIS K 6251、ダンベル状5号形))。得られた試料片を下記条件下、テンシロン(東洋精機株式会社製、ストログラフVE50)でチャック間50mm、引張速度100mm/minの条件で引っ張って荷重に対するフィルムの伸びを測定する。測定値から荷重を横軸、伸びを縦軸としたグラフを作成し、荷重-伸び曲線の立ち上がり部の接線から弾性率を算出する。この操作を5回実施し、最大値及び最小値を除く3点の平均値を弾性率とする。そして、各温度について、フィルム搬送方向に引っ張る場合とフィルム幅方向に引っ張る場合のそれぞれについて実施する。
ここで、フィルム搬送方向に引っ張った場合の弾性率をEMDとし、フィルム幅方向に引っ張った場合の弾性率をETDとして表記する。
<測定条件>
・測定場:熱風加熱炉
・測定温度:30℃、90℃、120℃、150℃、180℃
(炉の設定温度は、1.5分で所望温度に上昇し、かつ、所望温度から1分経過しても温度上昇が2℃以内に収まるように温度設定と風量調整とを行う。)
・温度制御:試験片の近傍に温度測定用の同種同サイズの試験片を設置し、温度測定用の試験片に熱電対を貼り付け、測定時の温度を監視する。
(上記「フィルム温度が30℃である場合」とは、温度測定用の試験片の温度が30℃である場合を指す。他の温度の場合も同様である。)
・試験開始タイミング:所望温度に到達した後に引っ張りを開始する。
Raが0.5nm以上であると、例えば搬送ロールの表面での滑り性を高めることができ、筋状バリの改善効果に優れる。また、Raが50nm以下であると、外観に故障等を来たすことがなく、光学用途に適したものとなる。
一般に、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムは、加熱工程中においてTD方向に膨張するが、フィルムのTD方向端部における搬送ロール表面での保持力が強く、膨張したフィルムがTD方向に移動できないため、膨張分の応力が厚み方向へ逃げようとする。結果、TD方向に波打つようにシワが発生し、筋状バリとなる。本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムでは、フィルムの表面粗さ(Ra)を上記範囲に調整することで、フィルムの筋状バリの発生を抑制できる。
Raは、値が大きいほど(即ち、表面が粗いほど)筋状バリの低減効果が期待できる。中でも、他の性状に及ぼす影響を抑えつつ筋状バリを効果的に低減する観点から、Raは、0.8nm~30nmが好ましく、1nm~20nmがより好ましい。

厚みが200μm以下の薄厚のフィルムである場合に、特に加熱処理に起因するTD方向の波状のシワが発生しやすい。したがって、厚みが200μm以下である場合に本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムによる効果がより奏される。

本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムは、既述の比Er30及び最大値Ermax及び最小値Erminの差が予め定められた範囲を満たす限り、いずれの方法により作製されてもよい。本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムは、以下に示す本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの製造方法により最も好適に作製される。
以下、本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの製造方法について詳細に説明する。
第1の延伸での延伸倍率に対して第2の延伸での延伸倍率が大きく、かつ、第1の延伸での延伸倍率と第2の延伸での延伸倍率との積である面積倍率が12.8倍~15.5倍であり、
第2の延伸を行う工程は、冷却部において、更にフィルム幅方向に緊張を与え、熱緩和部での熱緩和の終了時点のフィルム幅に対して-1.5%~3%の範囲で拡張又は縮小する。なお、例えば「-1.5%」は、「1.5%の縮小」を意味する。
これにより、波状のシワ(筋状バリ)の発生が抑制された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムが得られる。
本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの製造方法において、第2の延伸工程は、予熱部と、延伸部と、熱固定部と、熱緩和部と、冷却部と、に順次、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを搬送することで行われる。
以下に、本開示の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの製造方法における各工程について詳述する。
本開示の製造方法における成形工程では、原料樹脂を溶融押出し、冷却して熱可塑性樹脂シートを成形する。
熱可塑性樹脂シートの成形は、原料樹脂を投入してシート状に溶融押出しされた熱可塑性樹脂をキャスティングロール上で冷却することにより行われる。
原料樹脂を溶融押出する方法及び原料樹脂は、特に制限されないが、原料樹脂の合成に用いる触媒、及び重合方法等により固有粘度を所望の固有粘度とすることができる。
原料樹脂の詳細については既述の通りである。
成形工程では、原料樹脂を溶融押出し、その後冷却に供されて熱可塑性樹脂シートを成形する。
原料樹脂の溶融押出は、例えば、1本又は2本以上のスクリュを備えた押出機を用い、原料樹脂の融点以上の温度に加熱し、スクリュを回転させて溶融混練しながら行われる。原料樹脂は、加熱及びスクリュによる混練により、押出機内で溶融して溶融樹脂(メルトともいう)となる。また、押出機内での熱分解(例えばポリエステルの加水分解)を抑制する観点から、押出機内を窒素置換して、原料樹脂の溶融押出しを行うことが好ましい。押出機は、混練温度が低く抑えられる点で2軸押出機が好ましい。
溶融された溶融樹脂(メルト)は、ギアポンプ、濾過器等を通して、押出ダイから押出される。押出ダイは、単に「ダイ」ともいう〔JIS B 8650:2006、a)押出成形機、番号134参照〕。
メルトは、単層で押出されてもよいし、多層で押出されてもよい。
ダイからメルトを押し出す際、キャスティングロール上で静電印加法、エアーナイフ法、エアーチャンバー法、バキュームノズル法、タッチロール法等の方法を適用して、キャスティングロールと溶融押出されたシートとの密着を上げることが好ましい。中でも、例えば環状オレフィン構造を有する重合体樹脂を原料樹脂として用いる場合、タッチロール法によりキャスティングロールとシートとの密着を高めることが好ましい。タッチロール法は、キャスティングロール上にタッチロールを載置してシートの表面を整形する方法である。タッチロールは、剛性の高い通常のロールではなく、弾性を有するロールが好ましい。
タッチロールの例としては、特開平11-314263号公報又は特開平11-235747号公報に記載のタッチロールが挙げられる。
熱可塑性樹脂シートの厚みが3mm以下であると、メルトの蓄熱による冷却遅延を回避することができる。また、熱可塑性樹脂シートの厚みが0.1mm以上であると、押出しから冷却までの間に、熱可塑性樹脂シート(好ましくはポリエステルシート)中の水酸基及びカルボキシ基が熱可塑性樹脂(好ましくはポリエステル)内部に拡散され、加水分解発生の要因となる水酸基及びカルボキシ基が樹脂表面に露出することが抑制される。
メルトを冷却する手段は、連続運転時のフィルム表面へのオリゴマー付着防止の観点から、冷風による冷却及びキャスティングロールを用いた冷却の少なくとも一方が好ましい。さらには、押出機から押出されたメルトを冷風で冷却し、かつ、メルトをキャスティングロールに接触させて冷却することが特に好ましい。
本開示の製造方法における第1の延伸工程では、上記の成形工程で成形された熱可塑性樹脂シートに対して、長手方向(MD方向)に第1の延伸(以下、適宜「縦延伸」ともいう。)を行って熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを得る。
第1の延伸工程における熱可塑性樹脂シートの延伸倍率としては、2倍~5倍が好ましく、2.5倍~4.0倍がより好ましく、2.8倍~3.5倍がさらに好ましい。
面積倍率が大きいほど常温での弾性率は高くなるが、この場合の弾性率は加熱により緩和されやすく、加熱処理等により再加熱された際に弾性率が低くなりやすい。本開示において、面積倍率が12.8倍以上であると、フィルム幅方向における分子配向が良好になるため、筋状バリの発生が効果的に抑制される。また、面積倍率が15.5倍以下であると、加熱処理に供された際に分子配向が緩和されにくい状態を維持しやすい。
面積倍率は、上記と同様の理由から、13.5倍~15.2倍が好ましく、14.0倍~15.0倍がより好ましい。
なお、「熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの長手方向(MD)と直交するフィルム幅方向(TD)」とは、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの長手方向(MD)と垂直(90°)をなす方向を意図するものであるが、機械的な誤差などから実質的に長手方向(MD)に対する角度が90°とみなせる方向(例えば、MD方向に対し90°±5°の方向)が含まれる。
本開示の製造方法における第2の延伸工程では、上記の第1の延伸工程で第1の延伸が施された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを、延伸された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを予熱する予熱部、予熱された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの長手方向と直交するフィルム幅方向に緊張を与えて延伸する延伸部、緊張が与えられた熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを加熱して熱固定する熱固定部、及び、上記緊張を熱緩和する熱緩和部、並びに、熱緩和された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを冷却する冷却部に順次搬送し、かつ、上記冷却部において、更にフィルム幅方向に緊張を与え、熱緩和部での熱緩和の終了時点のフィルム幅に対して-1.5%~3%の範囲で拡張又は縮小する。これにより、第2の延伸(以下、適宜「横延伸」ともいう。)が施される。ここで、例えば「-1.5%」は、「1.5%の縮小」を意味する。
(a)縦延伸後の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを延伸可能な温度に予熱する予熱部、
(b)予熱された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを、長手方向と直交するフィルム幅方向に緊張を与えて延伸する延伸部、
(c)縦延伸及び横延伸を行った後の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを加熱することで結晶化させて熱固定する熱固定部、
(d)熱固定された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを加熱し、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの緊張を熱緩和してフィルムの残留歪みを除去する熱緩和部、並びに、
(e)熱緩和後の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを冷却し、かつ、同時にフィルム幅方向に緊張を与え、熱緩和部での熱緩和の終了時点のフィルム幅に対して-1.5%~3%の範囲で拡張又は縮小する冷却部
冷却部において、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムのTD方向への拡張比率又は縮小比率が、熱緩和部での熱緩和の終了時点のフィルム幅に対して-1.5%以上であると、TDにおける弾性率の上昇効果が得られやすい。また、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムのTD方向への拡張比率又は縮小比率が、熱緩和部での熱緩和の終了時点のフィルム幅に対して3%以下であると、フィルムの破断抑制に有効である。
面積倍率及び第2の延伸の際の延伸倍率が大きいほど常温下での弾性率は高められるが、熱により緩和されやすく、加熱処理に伴う弾性率の低下が生じやすい。そのため、本開示の製造方法では、第1の延伸及び第2の延伸による面積倍率の上昇を抑えつつ、熱固定を経て結晶化が進んだフィルムを強制的に再延伸することにより、緩和を抑制しつつ弾性率を向上させることが可能になる。
上記のうち、冷却部における、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムのTD方向への拡張比率又は縮小比率としては、上記と同様の理由から、熱緩和部での熱緩和の終了時点のフィルム幅に対して、0.0%~2.0%がより好ましく、1.5%~1.8%が更に好ましい。
図1に示すように、2軸延伸機100は、1対の環状レール60a及び60bと、各環状レールに取り付けられ、レールに沿って移動可能な把持部材2a~2lとを備えている。環状レール60a及び60bは、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を挟んで互いに対称配置されており、把持部材2a~2lで熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を把持し、レールに沿って移動させることによりフィルム幅方向に延伸可能なようになっている。
把持部材2a、2b、2e、2f、2i、及び2jは、環状レール60aに沿って反時計回りに移動し、把持部材2c、2d、2g、2h、2k、及び2lは、環状レール60bに沿って時計回りに移動する。
2軸延伸機100は、延伸部20において、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200をTD方向に延伸する横延伸を可能とするものであるが、把持部材2a~2lの移動速度を変化させることにより、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200をMD方向にも延伸することができる。すなわち、2軸延伸機100を用いて同時2軸延伸を行うことも可能である。
予熱部では、第1の延伸(縦延伸)工程で縦延伸した後の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを延伸可能な温度に予熱する。
図1に示すように、予熱部10において熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を予熱する。予熱部10では、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を延伸する前に予め加熱し、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の横延伸を容易に行なえるようにする。
なお、予熱部終了点は、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の予熱を終了する時点、すなわち予熱部10の領域から熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200が離れる位置をいう。
延伸部では、予熱部で予熱された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを長手方向(MD方向)と直交する幅方向(TD方向)に緊張を与えて延伸(横延伸)する。
具体的には、例えば図1に示す延伸部20において、予熱された熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を、少なくとも熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の長手方向と直交する矢印TDの方向に緊張を与え、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を横延伸する。例えば図1に示すように、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの幅長を、幅L0から幅L1に引き伸ばして広幅にする。
熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の長手方向(MD)と直交する方向(TD)への延伸(横延伸)は、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の長手方向(MD)と垂直(90°)の角度の方向に延伸することを意図するものであるが、機械誤差を考慮し、90°のみに限られず、フィルムのMD方向と垂直とみなせる角度(90°±5°)の方向に延伸することも含まれる。
第2の延伸温度が100℃以上であると、降伏応力が大きくなり過ぎることによる破断のおそれが低くなる。また、第2の延伸温度(膜面温度)の調節により、表面粗さRaを既述の範囲に調整することが可能であり、フィルムがTDに座屈しにくく、薄手の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを加熱搬送した場合でも波状のシワが発生しにくくなる。
また、第2の延伸温度が150℃以下であると、フィルム自体の結晶化が抑えられるので、破断し難くなる。
熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の横延伸時の延伸速度の上限としては、例えば、50%/秒以下であり、45%/秒以下が好ましく、40%/秒以下がより好ましく、30%以上が更に好ましく、20%/秒以下が特に好ましい。
ここで、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の横延伸時の延伸速度の範囲は、上記の上限値及び下限値のそれぞれを任意で組み合わせて、適宜、設定することができる。熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の横延伸時の延伸速度の範囲としては、例えば、8%/秒~45%/秒があり、15%/秒~40%/秒があり、10%/秒~30%/秒があり、10%/秒~20%/秒がある。
なお、延伸速度とは、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムが延伸前の長さd0の状態から1秒間に延伸された長さΔdを、延伸前の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの長さ(すなわち予熱部を経た時点の長さ)d0で除した値を百分率で表したものである。
延伸速度が上記の範囲内であることで、比較的ゆっくりとした速さで延伸されるので、延伸ムラが抑えられ、フィルム表面の粗度を適度に低く抑えることができる。
また、延伸速度が8%/秒以上であると、延伸工程が長くなり過ぎることがなく、滞留時間が長くなることに起因したフィルムの結晶化が抑えられるので、破断し難くなる。更に、延伸速度が45%/秒以下であると、フィルムの破断抑制に有効、Raが大きくなり過ぎないように抑えることができる。
第2の延伸工程での熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の縦延伸は、延伸部20のみで行ってもよいし、後述する熱固定部30、熱緩和部40、又は冷却部50で行ってもよい。また、第2の延伸工程での熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の縦延伸は、延伸部20、熱固定部30、熱緩和部40、及び冷却部50のうち、複数の箇所で行ってもよい。
熱固定部では、既に縦延伸及び横延伸が施された後の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを加熱し結晶化させて熱固定する。
熱固定とは、延伸部20において熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200に緊張を与えたまま加熱し、熱可塑性樹脂(例えばポリエステル)を結晶化させることをいう。
熱固定温度が160℃以上であると、熱可塑性樹脂(例えばポリエステル)が結晶化し易く、熱可塑性樹脂(例えばポリエステル)の分子を伸びた状態で固定化することができ、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの耐加水分解性が高められる。また、熱固定温度が240℃以下であると、熱可塑性樹脂(例えばポリエステル)の分子同士が絡み合った部分で滑りが生じにくく、分子が縮みにくいため、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの耐加水分解性の低下が抑制され。換言すれば、熱固定温度が160℃~240℃となるように加熱することで、熱可塑性樹脂(例えばポリエステル)の分子の結晶を配向させて、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの耐加水分解性を高めることができる。
熱固定温度は、上記同様の理由から、170℃~230℃の範囲が好ましく、175℃~225℃の範囲がより好ましい。
なお、最高到達膜面温度(熱固定温度)は、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの表面に熱電対を接触させて測定される値である。
上記の中では、最高到達膜面温度のバラツキは、上記と同様の理由から、0.5℃以上7.0℃以下がより好ましく、0.5℃以上5.0℃以下が更に好ましく、0.5℃以上4.0℃以下が特に好ましい。
この場合、加熱は、熱固定部での加熱面における加熱直後の表面温度が、加熱面と反対側の非加熱面の表面温度に比べて0.5℃以上5.0℃以下の範囲で高くなるように行なわれることが好ましい。熱固定時の加熱面の温度がその反対側の面より高く、その表裏間の温度差が0.5~5.0℃であることで、フィルムのカールがより効果的に解消される。カールの解消効果の観点からは、加熱面とその反対側の非加熱面との間の温度差は、0.7~3.0℃の範囲がより好ましく、0.8℃以上2.0℃以下が更に好ましい。
熱緩和部40においてフィルムを選択的に輻射加熱する場合、熱固定部30での輻射加熱を省略してもよいし、熱固定部30での輻射加熱を並行して行ってもよい。
輻射加熱が可能なヒーターとしては、例えば、赤外線ヒーターが挙げられ、特にセラミック製のヒーター(セラミックスヒーター)が好ましい。
中でも、滞留時間は、上記同様の理由から、8秒以上40秒以下が好ましく、10秒以上30秒以下がより好ましい。
熱緩和部では、熱固定された熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを加熱し、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの緊張を熱緩和してフィルムの残留歪みを除去する。この熱緩和により、フィルムは縦方向及び横方向の少なくとも一方を収縮させる。
図1に示す熱緩和部40において、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の表面の最高到達膜面温度が、熱固定部30における熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の最高到達膜面温度(T熱固定)よりも5℃以上低い温度となるように、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を加熱する態様が好ましい。
以下、熱緩和時における熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の表面の最高到達膜面温度を「熱緩和温度(T熱緩和)」ともいう。
T熱緩和が「T熱固定-5℃」以下であると、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの耐加水分解性により優れる。また、T熱緩和は、寸法安定性が良好になる点で、100℃以上であることが好ましい。
更には、T熱緩和は、100℃以上で、かつT熱固定よりも15℃以上低い温度領域(100℃≦T熱緩和≦T熱固定-15℃)であることが好ましく、110℃以上で、かつT熱固定よりも25℃以上低い温度領域(110℃≦T熱緩和≦T熱固定-25℃)であることがより好ましく、120℃以上で、かつT熱固定よりも30℃以上低い温度領域(120℃≦T熱緩和≦T熱固定-30℃)であることが特に好ましい。
なお、T熱緩和は、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の表面に熱電対を接触させることで測定される値である。
冷却部では、熱緩和部で熱緩和した後の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを冷却する。また、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの冷却と同時にフィルム幅方向に緊張を与え、熱緩和部での熱緩和の終了時点のフィルム幅に対して-1.5%~3%の範囲で拡張又は縮小する。
図1に示すように、冷却部50では、熱緩和部40を経た熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200が冷却される。熱固定部30や熱緩和部40で加熱された熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を冷却することにより、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の形状が固定化される。図1には、幅長L2の2軸延伸熱可塑性樹脂フィルムが示されている。
ここで、冷却部50におけるフィルム幅の拡張には、既述の延伸部20における延伸と同様の方法が用いられればよい。
また、冷却部50におけるフィルム幅の縮小には、既述の熱緩和部40におけるフィルムの緊張の熱緩和と同様の方法が用いられればよい。
ここで、冷却部出口とは、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200が冷却部50から離れる際の冷却部50の端部をいい、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を把持する把持部材2(図1では、把持部材2j及び2l)が、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を離すときの位置、即ちP点とQ点とを結んだ直線部をいう。
ここで、平均冷却速度は、冷却ゾーンでのフィルムの膜温を放射温度計により実測することで求められる。すなわち、膜温が150℃になる地点と膜温が70℃になる地点の距離Zmと、フィルムの搬送速度Sm/秒から、150から70℃までの冷却時間(Z÷S)秒を求める。そこから更に(150-70)÷(Z÷S)を計算することにより、平均冷却速度が求められる。
平均冷却速度は、4℃/秒~80℃/秒がより好ましく、5℃/秒~50℃/秒が更に好ましい。
冷却工程で冷却された熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200は、TD方向両端のクリップで把持された把持部分をカットし、ロール状に巻き取られる。
予熱部10において熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の幅方向(TD)の両端部を、片端部につき、少なくとも2つの把持部材を用いて把持する。例えば、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の幅方向(TD)の片端部の一方を把持部材2a及び2bで把持し、他方を把持部材2c及び2dで把持する。次いで、把持部材2a~2dを移動させることにより、予熱部10から冷却部50まで熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200を搬送する。
上記のように、把持部材2a-2b間の間隔、及び把持部材2c-2d間の間隔を、MD方向上流側よりも下流側で狭めることで、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200のMD方向の緩和を行うことができる。したがって、MD方向の熱緩和を熱固定部30又は熱緩和部40で行う場合は、把持部材2a~2dが熱固定部30又は熱緩和部40に到達したときに、把持部材2a~2dの移動速度を遅くして、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム200の搬送速度を小さくし、把持部材2a-2b間の間隔、及び把持部材2c-2d間の間隔を、予熱部10における間隔よりも狭めればよい。
以下に示すように、テレフタル酸及びエチレングリコールを直接反応させて水を留去し、エステル化した後、減圧下で重縮合を行う直接エステル化法を用いて、連続重合装置によりポリエステル(Ti触媒系PET)を得た。
第一エステル化反応槽に、高純度テレフタル酸4.7トンとエチレングリコール1.8トンを90分かけて混合してスラリー形成させ、3800kg/hの流量で連続的に第一エステル化反応槽に供給した。更にクエン酸がTi金属に配位したクエン酸キレートチタン錯体(VERTEC AC-420、ジョンソン・マッセイ社製)のエチレングリコール溶液を連続的に供給し、反応槽内温度250℃、攪拌下、平均滞留時間約4.3時間で反応を行なった。この際、クエン酸キレートチタン錯体は、Ti添加量が元素換算値で9ppmとなるように連続的に添加した。このとき、得られたオリゴマーの酸価は600当量/トンであった。なお、本明細書中において、「当量/t」は1トンあたりのモル当量を表す。
この反応物を第二エステル化反応槽に移送し、攪拌下、反応槽内温度250℃で、平均滞留時間で1.2時間反応させ、酸価が200当量/トンのオリゴマーを得た。第二エステル化反応槽は内部が3ゾーンに仕切られており、第2ゾーンから酢酸マグネシウムのエチレングリコール溶液を、Mg添加量が元素換算値で75ppmになるように連続的に供給し、続いて第3ゾーンから、リン酸トリメチルのエチレングリコール溶液を、P添加量が元素換算値で65ppmになるように連続的に供給した。
上記で得られたエステル化反応生成物を連続的に第一重縮合反応槽に供給し、攪拌下、反応温度270℃、反応槽内圧力20torr(2.67×10-3MPa)で、平均滞留時間約1.8時間で重縮合させた。
更に、第二重縮合反応槽に移送し、この反応槽において攪拌下、反応槽内温度276℃、反応槽内圧力5torr(6.67×10-4MPa)で滞留時間約1.2時間の条件で反応(重縮合)させた。
次いで、更に第三重縮合反応槽に移送し、この反応槽では、反応槽内温度278℃、反応槽内圧力1.5torr(2.0×10-4MPa)で、滞留時間1.5時間の条件で反応(重縮合)させ、反応物(ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET))を得た。
得られたポリマーは、IV=0.67、末端カルボキシ基の量(AV)=23当量/トン、融点=257℃、溶液ヘイズ=0.3%であった。IV及びAVの測定は、以下に示す方法により行った。
ポリエステル原料樹脂の固有粘度(IV)は、ポリエステル原料樹脂を、1,1,2,2-テトラクロルエタン/フェノール(=2/3[質量比])混合溶媒に溶解し、該混合溶媒中の25℃での溶液粘度から求めた。
ポリエステル原料樹脂の末端COOH量(AV)は、未延伸ポリエステルフィルム1~4をベンジルアルコール/クロロホルム(=2/3;体積比)の混合溶液に完全溶解させ、指示薬としてフェノールレッドを用い、基準液(0.025N KOH-メタノール混合溶液)で滴定し、その適定量から算出した。
以上のようにして、ポリエステル原料樹脂1を合成した。
<未延伸ポリエステルフィルムの作製>
ポリエステル原料樹脂1を、含水率20ppm以下に乾燥させた後、直径50mmの1軸混練押出機のホッパーに投入した。ポリエステル原料樹脂1は、300℃に溶融し、下記押出条件により、ギアポンプ、濾過器(孔径20μm)を介し、ダイから押出した。なお、ポリエステルシートの厚さが0.4mmとなるように、ダイのスリットの寸法を調整した。ポリエステルシートの厚さは、キャスティングロールの出口に設置した自動厚み計により測定した。
なお、フィルム幅は、いずれも0.9mである。
IV及びAVの測定は、上記と同様の方法で行った。

冷却終了後、ポリエステルフィルムの両端を20cmずつトリミングした。その後、両端に幅10mmで押出し加工(ナーリング)を行なった後、張力25kg/mで巻き取った。
上記のPETフィルムの作製において、ポリエステル原料樹脂1を、ARTON(登録商標;比重ρ:1.08g/cm3、ガラス転移温度(Tg):138℃、JSR株式会社製)に代えたこと以外は、上記の2軸延伸ポリエステル(PET)フィルムの作製と同様にして、2軸延伸環状ポリオレフィンフィルム(COP)を作製した。
