Definitions
- This disclosure relates to a planar heating element.
- heaters are often installed on the rear of the mirror. These heaters often use planar heating elements with PTC characteristics (positive temperature coefficient), which does not require expensive temperature control devices.
- a sheet heating element having PTC characteristics usually has a pair of electrodes and a resistor having PTC characteristics (also referred to as a "PTC resistor" in this specification) arranged between the electrodes.
- a resistor containing a crystalline resin and conductive particles is known as a PTC resistor (for example, Patent Document 1).
- PTC resistor for example, Patent Document 1
- the temperature of the sheet heating element (PTC resistor) rises, the crystalline resin contained therein thermally expands, the distance between the conductive particles increases, and the resistance value rises. Then, the resistance value rises sharply near the softening temperature or melting point of the crystalline resin, making it difficult for electricity to conduct.
- the temperature of the sheet heating element is controlled so that it does not rise above a certain level.
- the present disclosure therefore aims to provide a sheet heating element whose resistance value is likely to increase in a short time after reaching a certain temperature, and whose resistance value is high after the temperature is increased.
- One embodiment of the present disclosure provides a planar heating element having a substrate, a pair of electrodes disposed on the substrate, and a PTC resistor disposed on the substrate and between the pair of electrodes, the PTC resistor including conductive particles, a binder resin, and a wax, the wax including a naturally occurring wax and/or a polyolefin-based wax in which the number of melting peaks observed is one or two in a DSC curve obtained by heating from 25°C to 150°C at a heating rate of 10°C/min using a differential scanning calorimeter.
- a planar heating element can be obtained whose resistance value increases easily in a short time after reaching a certain temperature, and whose resistance value after heating is high.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view showing an example of the structure of a sheet heating element according to the present disclosure.
- FIG. 2A is a DSC curve of the polyolefin wax used in Examples A-1 and A-2
- FIG. 2B is a DSC curve of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene used in Comparative Examples A-2 and A-3.
- a numerical range indicated with “ ⁇ ” means a numerical range including the numbers written before and after " ⁇ ".
- the sheet heating element 100 has a substrate 1, a pair of electrodes 21, 22 arranged on the substrate 1, and a PTC resistor 3 arranged between the pair of electrodes 21, 22.
- the configuration of the sheet heating element 100 is not limited to this configuration, and may, for example, have a conductive coating (not shown) arranged on the electrode 2.
- the substrate 1 is not particularly limited as long as it is insulating and can be laminated with the electrodes 21, 22 and the PTC resistor 3, and is appropriately selected depending on the application of the sheet heating element 100.
- Specific examples of the substrate 1 include resin films, such as polyester films.
- the pair of electrodes 21, 22 can have a structure including main electrodes 21a, 22a and comb-shaped electrodes 21b, 22b.
- the electrodes 21, 22 may be made of any material that can conduct electricity.
- the electrodes 21, 22 are usually made of metal, and may be made of aluminum, for example.
- the method for producing the electrodes 21 and 22 is not particularly limited.
- aluminum foil formed in a pattern may be attached to the substrate 1, or a metal layer disposed on the substrate 1 may be patterned by cutting it out with a blade or the like.
- the thickness of the PTC resistor 3 in such a sheet heating element 100 is preferably 10 ⁇ m or more, and more preferably 20 to 80 ⁇ m. If the thickness of the PTC resistor 3 is 10 ⁇ m or more, a sufficient amount of heat can be generated. On the other hand, if the thickness is 80 ⁇ m or less, the thickness of the sheet heating element 100 becomes thin, making it easier to apply to various uses.
- the PTC resistor 3 will be described in detail later.
- terminals 4 connected to the electrodes 21 and 22 are placed on the substrate 1, and the terminals 4 are connected to external electrodes. Then, by applying a voltage between the electrodes 21 and 22, the temperature of the PTC resistor 3 can be raised to a desired temperature.
- the sheet heating element 100 can be used for a wide variety of purposes, such as heaters for defogging door mirrors of automobiles, heaters for defogging cameras in automobile rear-end collision prevention devices, heaters for defogging millimeter wave radars in automobile rear-end collision prevention devices, antenna covers, thermistors, heaters for preventing freezing of pipelines, floor heating, heated seats for chairs, heated seats for handrails, etc.
- the PTC resistor 3 of the sheet heating element 100 will be described in detail below.
- the PTC resistor of the conventional sheet heating element As described above, in the PTC resistor of the conventional sheet heating element, the PTC characteristics are given mainly by utilizing the thermal expansion and recrystallization of the crystalline resin. However, in this method, the degree of increase in the resistance value after reaching a certain temperature is low, and the degree of increase in the resistance value is also small.
- the PTC resistor 3 of the sheet heating element 100 of the present disclosure contains a specific polyolefin wax or a natural wax together with the conductive particles and the binder resin. In the PTC resistor 3, these waxes melt near their melting points when the temperature rises. The volume increase due to the melting of these waxes is much larger than the volume increase of general resins. In addition, since they melt easily, the resistance value increases significantly in a short time. Therefore, the sheet heating element of the present disclosure has a larger change in resistance value at a desired temperature and a higher resistance value after heating than the conventional sheet heating element.
- the PTC resistor of the first aspect comprises a polyolefin wax which, when a differential scanning calorimeter (hereinafter also referred to as "DSC") is used to create a DSC curve by heating from 25°C to 150°C at a heating rate of 10°C/min, shows one or two melting peaks in the DSC curve, a binder resin, and conductive particles.
- DSC differential scanning calorimeter
- polyolefin wax refers to an organic material that is solid or semi-solid at room temperature and melts without decomposition when heated.
- polyolefin wax refers to a wax containing 50% by mass or more of an olefin-derived component.
- the polyolefin wax used in this embodiment has one or two melting peaks observed in the DSC curve when heated from 25°C to 150°C at a heating rate of 10°C/min in DSC. It is more preferable that the melting peak observed is one.
- the melting peak in the DSC curve refers to an endothermic peak whose absolute value of the peak height is 0.5 mW or more, and does not include noise whose height is less than 0.5 mW. Note that all DSC curves in this specification are values obtained using 5 mg of sample.
- the peak height is a value obtained as follows. First, in the DSC curve, the falling position of the line and the rising position of the line in the downward convex region (region where endothermic reaction occurs) are confirmed. If both of these can be confirmed, they are connected with a line, and this is used as the baseline. In this specification, the baseline is drawn only for the large mountain region where the rising and falling exceeds 1 mW. For example, as shown in FIG. 2B, if one large mountain region (region with a downward convexity) contains small peaks (B, C, and D) with a rising or falling of 1 mW or less, only one baseline is drawn for the large mountain region. Also, as shown in FIG.
- the melting peak in the DSC curve of the polyolefin wax is preferably in the range of 80°C to 150°C, more preferably in the range of 90°C to 140°C, and even more preferably in the range of 100°C to 130°C. This results in a PTC resistor that shows an increase in resistance value at 80°C to 150°C.
- the weight average molecular weight of the above-mentioned polyolefin wax examples is preferably 1,000 or more and 1,500,000 or less, and more preferably 3,000 or more and 20,000 or less. When the weight average molecular weight of the polyolefin wax is within this range, it is likely to have a melting peak in the above temperature range.
- the above weight average molecular weight is a polystyrene-equivalent value measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC).
- the PTC resistor may contain only one type of the polyolefin wax, or may contain two or more types.
- polyolefin waxes include homopolymers of olefins, copolymers of two or more types of olefins, copolymers of olefins and monomers other than olefins, etc.
- More specific examples of polyolefin waxes include polyethylene waxes such as low-density polyethylene wax, medium-density polyethylene wax, and high-density polyethylene wax, polypropylene wax, polybutene wax, ethylene-propylene copolymer wax, and ethylene-propylene-butene copolymer wax.
