2. Description of the Related Art In the case of exterior building materials such as curtain walls,
Silicone sealant (silicone sealant) with excellent weather resistance and moderate elasticity is used as a sealant to fix glass, metal, stone, etc. panel materials to the frame material and to provide watertightness and airtightness. Widely used. But,
When a silicone sealant is used, the silicone-based oil contained therein gradually oozes out over time with the passage of time, and further scatters due to the weather and the like, and the surface of the panel material or frame material (outdoor surface) Diffuses and adheres to Silicone oil is hydrophobic and easily adheres to various stains. Therefore, it acts as a binder for fixing dirt such as exhaust gas, soot and dust on the surface of the building material. Therefore,
Building exteriors using silicone sealants are very dirty and cause darkening of building exteriors, which has been a major problem of degrading the aesthetics of buildings. Further, this stain cannot be removed by cleaning the building with a detergent using a normal surfactant, and a cleaning method has been a problem.

[0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have reduced the contamination caused by silicone oil by coating a photocatalytic film on the exterior building material except for the portion in contact with the sealing material, and in the vicinity thereof. We have found that we can do this and have already filed a patent application (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-302856).
issue). In addition, when the contact angle of water with respect to the base material is reduced so as to exhibit hydrophilicity, a phenomenon that dirt is reduced has also been found, and an antifouling building material utilizing this effect has been developed (for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. No. 9-228602).

As described above, when a photocatalyst is applied to an exterior building material, there is a considerable effect on prevention of dirt caused by silicone oil and self-cleaning. However, in a portion where a large amount of silicone oil stays, such as immediately below the sealing material of the exterior building material, the contamination rate exceeds the decomposition removal rate due to the photocatalytic action and the cleaning rate due to hydrophilicity, and the dirt removal effect is reduced. Further, it was found that once the silicone oil adhered, the silicone oil itself deteriorated due to the photocatalytic action and could not be easily removed from the surface of the photocatalytic film.

[0005] Explaining the above points, silicone oil has a silicon-oxygen bond as a skeleton, and an alkyl group such as a methyl group is bonded to silicon. On the other hand, a photocatalyst such as titanium oxide changes moisture or oxygen in the air into active species under ultraviolet irradiation, and this active species oxidizes and decomposes the alkyl group of the silicone oil to generate a silicon-oxygen bond. . The composition of a conventional photocatalytic film is described in, for example, Japanese Patent No. 275.
As disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 6474, inorganic oxides, particularly silica-based oxides and silicones, are used to improve the hydrophilicity of the photocatalytic film or to prevent an increase in the water contact angle in the dark. Resin is blended. Such a substance and the silicone oil which has been polymerized by generating the silicon-oxygen bond have excellent chemical affinity because of having the same chemical bond. If it adheres, it will be very difficult to remove it.

Further, when the decomposition of the alkyl group of the silicone oil by the photocatalytic action is insufficient, the modified silicone oil exhibits water repellency due to the remaining alkyl group. When such a substance adheres to the photocatalytic film surface,
In order to inhibit the photocatalytic film from becoming hydrophilic, the ease of washing with water is greatly reduced. Various stains accumulate on the surface of the photocatalyst film with reduced easy-cleaning properties, cover the surface of the photocatalyst film, and significantly reduce the amount of light incident on the photocatalyst film.
Therefore, the effect of oxidative decomposition of organic substances possessed by the photocatalyst film is reduced, and it becomes impossible to decompose the residual alkyl groups of the modified silicone oil. In addition, it also inhibits the photocatalytic film from becoming hydrophilic.

For the reasons described above, if a large amount of silicone oil adheres to the surface of the photocatalyst film, the effect of decomposing organic substances and the effect of hydrophilization of the photocatalyst film is hindered, and not only is the removal itself difficult, but also this silicone oil becomes difficult. It is very difficult to remove dirt deposited by oil alteration with water. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to prevent the generation of dirt due to the adhesion of silicone oil as described above, and also to prevent the dirt and the self-cleaning effect of the photocatalytic film and the hydrophilic film from being reduced. It is an object of the present invention to provide materials and building materials and a combination technology thereof, and to provide a building exterior that can maintain a beautiful appearance for a long time by using such building sealing materials and building materials. is there.

As a building material used in combination with the above-mentioned sealing material, a material provided with a material layer having an antifouling action such as a hydrophilic film or a photocatalytic film on the surface, particularly a material layer having a photocatalytic action is used. As the hydrophilic film, inorganic oxides,
In particular, a film containing a silica-based oxide is preferably used, and by making the surface hydrophilic, it becomes difficult to adhere dirt,
In addition, it is easy to clean with rainwater or washing water, but it is particularly preferable to use a building material provided with a photocatalytic film that positively decomposes dirt by a photocatalytic action. Photocatalytic fine particles are known to exhibit antibacterial and antifungal effects by active oxygen species generated under light irradiation, and can not only reduce stains on exterior building materials, but also prevent the generation of bacteria and mold.

If the particle size is smaller than 0.005 μm, the band gap becomes large due to the quantum size effect, and there is a problem that a photocatalytic action cannot be obtained unless under illumination that generates short-wavelength light such as a high-pressure mercury lamp.
If the particle size is too small, problems arise such as difficulty in handling and poor dispersibility in the binder. From the viewpoint of handleability, a particle size of 0.01 μm or more is preferred. On the other hand, when the particle size exceeds 1 μm,
Since relatively large photocatalyst fine particles are present on the film surface, the smoothness of the surface is poor, and particles exposed on the film surface are also likely to fall off. In consideration of the smoothness of the surface and the like, the particle size is preferably 0.3 μm or less.

Various methods such as a dipping method, a sputtering method, a thermal spraying method and a spraying method can be used as a method for coating a semiconductor having a photocatalytic action. It is preferable to disperse fine particles of an antibacterial metal or an antibacterial metal compound in accordance with the above method, apply the resulting dispersion to a substrate by spraying, dry, coat, and heat and cure. If the substrate or its surface coating can withstand high temperatures, it is possible to form a photocatalytic film by the various coating methods described above, but if it is made of a resin material with poor heat resistance, it can be heated to high temperatures. It becomes difficult. In that case, disperse the photocatalyst fine particles in an appropriate paint, spray-coat this on the substrate,
What is necessary is just to employ | adopt the method of coating by drying. Further, when the base material (inorganic binder) of the coating material in which the photocatalyst fine particles are dispersed is the same as the film forming component of the coating material of the intermediate layer as described later, the effect of further improving the adhesion between the intermediate layer and the photocatalytic layer is obtained. can get.

In the case of a coating method in which photocatalyst fine particles are dispersed in a paint and sprayed, the ratio of the photocatalyst fine particles to be mixed is 0.1% with respect to the total volume of the photocatalytic film.
Preferably, it is in the range of 5 to 50% (here, 50% corresponds to the volume of the photocatalyst fine particles being equal to the volume of the coating substrate). When the ratio of the photocatalyst fine particles is less than 0.5%, the amount of the photocatalyst fine particles that exerts the photocatalytic action becomes insufficient, so that a sufficient photocatalytic action cannot be obtained.

The thickness of the photocatalytic film is suitably from 0.01 to 10 μm. When the film thickness is large, the photocatalytic activity can be maintained high for a long period of time, and there is an advantage that coloring due to light interference is reduced. However, when the film thickness is more than 10 μm, the photocatalytic film is easily peeled off, and the production is increased. It is not preferable from the viewpoint of performance and cost. In particular, after coating the photocatalytic film, peeling is likely to occur during assembly or construction. With this thickness, sufficiently high transparency can be maintained without causing a problem such as whitening in the photocatalytic film.

It is also known that ordinary photocatalytic films cause a lipophilic phenomenon in which the contact angles of various fats and oils components are reduced at the same time as the hydrophilicity, in which the contact angle of water is reduced under light irradiation. . That is, the surface of the photocatalytic film under light irradiation is
Because it has excellent chemical affinity not only for water but also for various fats and oils components, it is difficult for water to enter the interface between the fats and the photocatalyst film and lift the fats and oils when the fats and oils adhere. . However, if the photocatalyst film is made oil-repellent by adding or / and supporting an oil repellent in or / and on the photocatalyst film and the chemical affinity of the photocatalyst film surface with the oil / fat is reduced, Water enters the interface of the oil and makes it easy to lift up the oil and fat, and the oil and fat that has come up can be easily washed away with water.
Examples of such an oil repellent include compounds exhibiting oil repellency such as a fluorine compound and a silicon compound. These oil repellents are used in various modes such as adding these oil repellents to a photocatalyst film or applying the oil repellent to the photocatalyst film surface. it can.

As is apparent from the results shown in FIG. 3, in Examples 1 and 2, the color difference was about 2 at both the center of the lower half of the panel material and immediately below the sealing material, and good antifouling performance was exhibited. . However, in Comparative Example 1, first, it can be seen that the portion immediately below the seal material was significantly contaminated, and further, the central portion of the panel (the center portion of the lower half of the panel, the same applies hereinafter) with time. This means that the silicone oil component oozed out of the silicone-based sealant material and initially contaminates just below the seal material, but the contaminated area gradually expanded to reach the center of the panel. As described above, it is not preferable to use a silicone sealant for the construction of the photocatalytic antifouling building material in order to stably exhibit an antifouling effect, and it is preferable to use a modified silicone sealant or a polyisobutylene sealant. .
