Abstract
Description
[1]ポリビニルアルコール(A)、下記式(I)で表されるアミン型界面活性剤(B)、及び硫酸エステル塩型又はスルホン酸塩型から選択される少なくとも1種の界面活性剤(C)を含有するポリビニルアルコールフィルムであって、前記界面活性剤(B)の含有量が、ポリビニルアルコール(A)100質量部に対して0.03~0.18重量部であり、前記界面活性剤(C)の含有量が、ポリビニルアルコール(A)100質量部に対して0.04~0.4重量部であるポリビニルアルコールフィルム、
[2]前記界面活性剤(B)と前記界面活性剤(C)との重量比率(B:C)が1:0.5~1:20である、[1]に記載のポリビニルアルコールフィルム、
[3]フィルムの幅が1.5m以上である、[1]又は[2]に記載のポリビニルアルコールフィルム、
[4]フィルムの長さが3000m以上である、[1]~[3]のいずれかに記載のポリビニルアルコールフィルム、
[5]フィルムの厚みが10~70μmである、[1]~[4]のいずれかに記載のポリビニルアルコールフィルム、
[6][1]~[5]のいずれかに記載のポリビニルアルコールフィルムを染色する工程及び延伸する工程を有する偏光フィルムの製造方法、に関する。
PVA(A)としては、ビニルエステルを重合して得られるビニルエステル系重合体をけん化することにより製造されたものを使用することができる。ビニルエステルとしては、例えば、ギ酸ビニル、酢酸ビニル、プロピオン酸ビニル、バレリン酸ビニル、ラウリン酸ビニル、ステアリン酸ビニル、安息香酸ビニル、ピバリン酸ビニル、バーサティック酸ビニル等を挙げることができる。これらは1種類を単独で使用してもよいし、2種類以上を併用してもよいが前者が好ましい。入手性、コスト、PVA(A)の生産性などの観点からビニルエステルとして酢酸ビニルが好ましい。
重合度 = ([η]×104/8.29)(1/0.62)
本発明で用いられるアミン型界面活性剤(B)は、下記式(I)で表されるものである。
本発明で用いられる界面活性剤(C)は、硫酸エステル塩型又はスルホン酸塩型から選択される少なくとも1種である。アミン型界面活性剤(B)を併用せず、界面活性剤(C)を単独で使用した場合、表面張力を低減させる能力が不十分であり、PVAフィルムにスジ状の欠点が発生する。また、本発明者らは、アミン型界面活性剤(B)を併用せず、硫酸エステル塩型等の界面活性剤(C)を単独で使用した場合、分解により発生した酸性物質が製造設備の腐食を引き起こし、その結果、得られるPVAフィルムにスジ状の欠点が発生するおそれがあることを確認している。本発明では、上記説明したアミン型界面活性剤(B)と、硫酸エステル塩型又はスルホン酸塩型から選択される少なくとも1種の界面活性剤(C)を所定の含有量で併用することによって、硫酸エステル塩型等の界面活性剤(C)の分解で発生した酸性物質が塩基性のアミン型界面活性剤(B)により中和され、製造設備の腐食を防止することが可能になると考えられる。その結果、スジ状の欠点が無い膜面品質に優れたPVAフィルムを得ることができる。
PVAフィルムに柔軟性を付与させることができる観点から、本発明のPVAフィルムは可塑剤を含有することが好ましい。好ましい可塑剤としては多価アルコールが挙げられ、具体的には、エチレングリコール、グリセリン、プロピレングリコール、ジエチレングリコール、トリエチレングリコール、テトラエチレングリコール、トリメチロールプロパン等を挙げることができる。これらは1種の可塑剤のみを用いてもよいし、2種以上の可塑剤を併用してもよい。中でも、PVA(A)との相溶性や入手性などの観点から、エチレングリコールまたはグリセリンが好ましい。
測定対象となるPVAフィルムロールの表層側から10mの領域を切り出し、幅方向に5cm、長さ方向に5cm、厚みが60μmの正方形のサンプルを切り出した。その後、スガ試験機株式会社製のヘーズメーター「HZ-1」を用い、ASTM D1003-61に従って全光線透過率Tt及び拡散透過率Tdを測定し、Hazeを下式より算出した。
Haze=Td/Tt×100
測定対象となるPVAフィルムロールの表層側から10mの領域を切り出し、幅方向に1.5cm、長さ方向に1.5cm、厚みが60μmの正方形のサンプルを切り出した。その後、微分干渉顕微鏡を用いて1000倍率にてフィルム厚み方向中心部の画像を撮影した。撮影した画像を株式会社日本ローパー社製の画像解析ソフト「Image-Pro」を用いて解析し、135μm×100μmの領域中の活性剤凝集物数を測定した。
4000m以上の長尺フィルムの製膜において、キャストドラムから膜を剥離する際に、ドラムへの付着で剥離できなかったものをB、問題なく剥離できたものをAとして評価した。
切り出したPVAフィルムを暗室下で白色スクリーンと投影機の間に配置して、スクリーンに映る陰影を観察した。不連続な濃淡やスジ状の濃淡が確認できればBとし、前記濃淡が見られず均一であればAとした。
重合度2400、けん化度99.9モル%のPVAチップ100質量部を35℃の蒸留水2500質量部に24時間浸漬させた後、遠心脱水を行い、揮発分率70質量%のPVA含水チップを得た。当該PVA含水チップ333質量部(乾燥PVAは100質量部)に対して、グリセリン10質量部、アミン型界面活性剤(B)としてポリオキシエチレン鎖数(m+n)が15のポリオキシエチレンラウリルアミン0.08質量部、及び界面活性剤(C)としてポリオキシエチレンラウリルエーテル硫酸ナトリウム塩0.08質量部を混合した後、得られた混合物をベント付き二軸押出機で加熱溶融(最高温度130℃)して製膜原液とした。この製膜原液を熱交換器で100℃に冷却した後、180cm幅のコートハンガーダイから表面温度が90℃のドラム上に押出製膜して、更に熱風乾燥装置を用いて乾燥し、次いで、製膜時のネックインにより厚くなったフィルムの両端部を切り取ることにより、膜厚60μm、幅165cmのPVAフィルムを連続的に製造した。当該PVAフィルムのうちの長さ4000m分を円筒状のコアに巻き取ってフィルムロールとした。得られたPVAフィルムについて上記した方法によりHaze、活性剤凝集物数、剥離性、膜面品質を評価した結果を表1に示す。
アミン型界面活性剤(B)、及び界面活性剤(C)の種類・使用量を表1に示されるとおりに変更したこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、PVAフィルムの製造および評価を行った。結果を表1に示す。
