Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、水性メタリック塗料あるいは水性メタリックインキ等に用いられる、アルミニウム顔料とその製造方法およびそれを配合してなる樹脂組成物に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術および発明が解決しようとする課題】
アルミニウム顔料を水性ワニスに配合すると、ワニスに含まれる水と反応し、水素ガスを発生して貯蔵中に容器が爆発したり、アルミニウム顔料が固まってブツを発生するなどの問題を生じる。
【0003】
これを解決するため多くの技術が開発されているが、比較的実用に近い最近の技術としては、特公平1−54386、特開昭59−74201、特公昭60−8057、特開平4−318181、米国特許5,296,032、特開平6−57171が公知である。
【0004】
特公平1−54386号では、アルミニウム顔料をクロム酸で処理する方法が開示されている。この方法によればアルミニウム顔料の化学的安定性は改善されるが、処理液の反応性が強すぎるために細かいアルミニウム顔料の処理ができない、六価クロム化合物を使用するため労働衛生面あるいは環境面での問題が大きい等の難点があり、あまり実用化されていない。
【0005】
特開昭59−74201号では、アルミニウム顔料をバナジン酸アンモニウムで処理する方法が開示されている。この方法では、処理によるアルミニウム顔料の色調の変化が大きいことが問題となり、実用化には至っていない。
【0006】
特公昭60−8057号では、アルミニウム顔料を酸性燐酸エステルで被覆する方法が開示されている。この方法によればアルミニウム顔料の色調や化学的安定性は良好であるが、2コート1ベイクあるいは2コート2ベイク塗膜を作成した場合に、処理剤がアルミニウム顔料と樹脂との密着性に好ましからざる影響を及ぼし、ベースメタリック塗膜層とトップコート層との間の層間剥離が大きな問題となる。
【0007】
特開平4−318181号では、アルミニウム顔料をモリブデン酸等の酸化剤と燐酸イオン及びアルカリ土類金属イオンを含有する処理液で処理する方法が開示されている。この方法によれば化学的安定性の優れたアルミニウム顔料が作成できるが、処理液に含まれる燐酸イオンやアルカリ土類金属イオンが塗膜の耐湿性その他の物性を低下させる傾向がある。
【0008】
米国特許5,296,032では、アルミニウム顔料を燐モリブデン酸などのヘテロポリアニオンで処理する方法が開示されている。この方法の中で、燐モリブデン酸で処理されたアルミニウム顔料は化学的に安定であるが、処理剤に含まれる燐イオンが塗膜耐湿性等の物性を低下させる。また、その他の処理剤については十分な化学的安定性が得られない。
【0009】
特開平6−57171号では、アルミニウム顔料をモリブデン酸アンモニウムで処理した後、モリブデン酸塩等を添加して更にアルミニウム顔料を安定化する方法が開示されている。この方法によれば化学的安定性の優れたアルミニウム顔料を得ることが可能であり、塗膜物性についても問題は無いが、製造工程が煩雑であるという問題がある。
【0010】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明のアルミニウム顔料は、その表面に少なくとも一種の過酸化ポリ酸から誘導される皮膜が形成されていることを特徴とする。このような過酸化ポリ酸から誘導される皮膜は緻密で耐食性に優れているため、これをアルミニウム顔料表面に形成することにより水性塗料や水性インキ用ワニスに対し化学的に極めて安定なアルミニウム顔料を得ることができる。また、この皮膜は燐やアルカリ土類金属などの塗膜物性に対し悪影響を及ぼす元素を含まないため、本発明のアルミニウム顔料を配合しても、塗膜の耐湿性や耐候性が低下することが無い。
【0011】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明に用いられる過酸化ポリ酸は、組成式M・mH・nHO(ただし、Mは金属元素、xは1または2、yは2〜5の整数、mおよびnは任意の正数を示す。)で示される。Mで表される金属元素として好ましい元素は周期律表4a族、5a族、6a族に含まれる元素で、その中でもMo、Wが特にアルミニウム顔料の防食性に優れ、好適である。これらの元素を含む過酸化ポリ酸により特に化学的に安定な皮膜をアルミニウム顔料表面に形成することができる。
【0012】
アルミニウム顔料表面に形成された皮膜中の金属元素Mの量は、アルミニウム顔料100重量部に対し、0.01〜2.0重量部、より好ましくは0.05〜1.0重量部が好適である。金属元素の量がこれよりも少ない場合には、所望の化学的安定性が得られにくく、多すぎるとアルミニウム顔料の色調の変化が大きくなる、アルミニウム顔料が凝集する、塗膜物性が低下するなどの不都合が生じる。
【0013】
本発明に使用される過酸化ポリ酸は燐を含まず、燐の含有量を本発明のアルミニウム顔料100重量部当たり0.01重量部以下、好ましくは0.005重量部以下に抑えることができるため、燐酸イオンの存在に起因する耐湿性等の塗膜物性の低下を回避することができる。
【0014】
本発明のアルミニウム顔料を製造する方法としては、アルミニウム顔料を組成式M・mH・nHOで示される少なくとも一種の過酸化ポリ酸を含む溶液とを、スラリー状態またはペースト状態で、撹拌または混練することにより表面に過酸化ポリ酸から誘導される皮膜を形成する方法が好適である。
【0015】
過酸化ポリ酸を含む溶液の作成方法としては、過酸化水素水に金属元素を単体あるいはアルコキシドの如き化合物として溶解させる方法が好適である。過酸化ポリ酸を含む溶液には、未反応の水あるいは過酸化水素等の不可避不純物が含まれていても良い。具体的な作成方法としては、過酸化ポリ酸を含む溶液として、1〜70重量%(より好ましくは5〜50重量%)の過酸化水素を含む過酸化水素水に金属元素を単体あるいは化合物として1〜50重量%(より好ましくは5〜20重量%)溶解させる方法が好適である。過酸化水素水の濃度が薄すぎると金属元素を溶解させることが困難となり、多すぎると金属元素を添加したときに激しい反応が起こるため危険である。過酸化水素水に溶解させる金属元素の濃度は、低すぎると所望の効果が得られにくく、多すぎると過酸化水素水に溶解しきれなくなる。
【0016】
塗料に対する分散性や樹脂との親和性を向上させる目的、あるいは耐食性をさらに向上させる目的で、本発明のアルミニウム顔料の表面にさらに樹脂やカップリング剤(シランカップリング剤、チタネートカップリング剤等)を公知方法にしたがって被覆しても良いし、顔料分散剤(界面活性剤)や腐食抑制剤等を添加しても良い。本発明のアルミニウム顔料に樹脂を被覆する方法としては、アルミニウム顔料をミネラルスピリットなどの溶媒に分散し、アクリル酸エステル、メタクリル酸エステル、スチレン等のモノマーとアゾ化合物や過酸化物等の重合開始剤を添加し、加熱撹拌することにより該モノマーを重合させ、該アルミニウム顔料表面に析出させる方法が好適である。また、添加する腐食抑制剤としてはモリブデン酸の金属塩、酸性燐酸エステル、ダイマー酸等が好適である。
【0017】
本発明のアルミニウム顔料は、塗料・インキなどに配合された樹脂組成物として使用される。ここで言う樹脂組成物には、例えば塗料およびその塗膜、あるいはインキおよびその印刷物が包含される。塗料およびインキは有機溶剤型、水性のいずれにも使用可能であるが、本発明の目的からして、水性塗料あるいは水性インキに特に好適に使用される。樹脂組成物に用いる場合の着色アルミニウム顔料の配合量は、樹脂組成物の重量に対し0.1〜30%が適当である。配合量が少ない場合は十分な装飾(メタリック)効果が得られず、多すぎる場合は樹脂組成物の物性(耐候性、耐食性、機械強度など)に悪影響を及ぼす。
【0018】
塗料・インキについては次のような成分から構成される:
1)樹 脂:アクリル樹脂、アルキッド樹脂、ポリエステル樹脂、ポリウレタン樹脂、ポリ酢酸ビニル樹脂、ニトロセルロース樹脂、フッ素樹脂;
2)顔 料:本発明による着色フレークの他に、フタロシアニン、キナクリドン、イソインドリノン、ペリレン、アゾレーキ、酸化鉄、黄鉛、カーボンブラック、酸化チタン、パールマイカのような着色顔料あるいは体質顔料もしくは染料を併用しても良い;
3)添加剤:水、有機溶剤、界面活性剤、硬化剤、紫外線吸収剤、静電気除去剤、増粘剤等。
【0019】
本発明の樹脂組成物による塗膜については、電着塗装等による下塗り層や中塗り層の上に形成されていても良く、また、本発明の塗膜の上にトップコート層が形成されていても良い。
【0020】
【作用・効果】
本発明によるアルミニウム顔料は化学的に安定で、水性塗料や水性インキに好適に使用することができる。
【0021】
本発明のアルミニウム顔料の製造方法は、簡便で、しかも得られたアルミニウム顔料は化学的安定性に優れている。
【0022】
本発明の樹脂組成物は、水性塗料あるいは水性インキとして貯蔵安定性に優れており、貯蔵中に水素ガスが発生したり、アルミニウム顔料が凝集したりすることが無い。また、塗膜や印刷物は耐湿性その他の物性が優れている。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an aluminum pigment, a method for producing the same, and a resin composition obtained by blending the same, which are used in water-based metallic paints or water-based metallic inks.
[0002]
[Background Art and Problems to be Solved by the Invention]
When an aluminum pigment is blended with an aqueous varnish, it reacts with the water contained in the varnish to generate hydrogen gas, causing the container to explode during storage, or the aluminum pigment to solidify and generate problems.
[0003]
Many techniques have been developed to solve this, but as recent techniques that are relatively practical, Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-54386, Japanese Patent Publication No. Sho 59-74201, Japanese Patent Publication No. Sho 60-8057, Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 4-318181. U.S. Pat. No. 5,296,032 and JP-A-6-57171 are known.
[0004]
Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-54386 discloses a method of treating an aluminum pigment with chromic acid. Although this method improves the chemical stability of aluminum pigments, it cannot treat fine aluminum pigments because the treatment solution is too reactive. However, it has not been put to practical use.
[0005]
JP 59-74201 discloses a method of treating aluminum pigments with ammonium vanadate. This method has a problem in that the change in the color tone of the aluminum pigment due to the treatment is large, and has not been put into practical use.
[0006]
Japanese Patent Publication No. 60-8057 discloses a method of coating an aluminum pigment with an acidic phosphate ester. According to this method, the color tone and chemical stability of the aluminum pigment are good, but when a 2-coat 1-bake or 2-coat 2-bake coating film is prepared, the treatment agent is preferred for adhesion between the aluminum pigment and the resin. It has a significant effect, and delamination between the base metallic coating layer and the topcoat layer becomes a major problem.
[0007]
JP-A-4-318181 discloses a method of treating an aluminum pigment with a treatment liquid containing an oxidizing agent such as molybdic acid, phosphate ions and alkaline earth metal ions. According to this method, an aluminum pigment having excellent chemical stability can be prepared, but phosphate ions and alkaline earth metal ions contained in the treatment liquid tend to lower the moisture resistance and other physical properties of the coating film.
[0008]
US Pat. No. 5,296,032 discloses a method of treating aluminum pigments with heteropolyanions such as phosphomolybdic acid. In this method, the aluminum pigment treated with phosphomolybdic acid is chemically stable, but the phosphorus ions contained in the treating agent lower the physical properties such as moisture resistance of the coating film. Moreover, sufficient chemical stability cannot be obtained for other treatment agents.
[0009]
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-57171 discloses a method in which an aluminum pigment is treated with ammonium molybdate and then molybdate is added to further stabilize the aluminum pigment. According to this method, an aluminum pigment having excellent chemical stability can be obtained, and there is no problem with the physical properties of the coating film, but there is a problem that the production process is complicated.
[0010]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The aluminum pigment of the present invention is characterized in that a film derived from at least one kind of polyacid peroxide is formed on the surface thereof. Since the coating derived from such peroxide polyacids is dense and excellent in corrosion resistance, it is formed on the surface of the aluminum pigment to form an aluminum pigment that is chemically extremely stable against water-based paints and varnishes for water-based inks. Can be obtained. In addition, since this film does not contain elements that adversely affect the film properties such as phosphorus and alkaline earth metals, even if the aluminum pigment of the present invention is blended, the moisture resistance and weather resistance of the film may be reduced. There is no.
[0011]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The peroxide polyacid used in the present invention has a composition formula M x O y · mH 2 O 2 · nH 2 O (where M is a metal element, x is 1 or 2, y is an integer of 2 to 5, m and n represents an arbitrary positive number.) Preferable elements as the metal element represented by M are elements contained in groups 4a, 5a, and 6a of the periodic table, and among them, Mo and W are particularly preferable because of excellent corrosion resistance of aluminum pigments. A particularly chemically stable film can be formed on the surface of the aluminum pigment by the peroxide polyacid containing these elements.
[0012]
The amount of the metal element M in the film formed on the surface of the aluminum pigment is preferably 0.01 to 2.0 parts by weight, more preferably 0.05 to 1.0 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the aluminum pigment. is there. If the amount of the metal element is less than this, it is difficult to obtain the desired chemical stability, and if it is too much, the change in the color tone of the aluminum pigment increases, the aluminum pigment aggregates, and the physical properties of the coating film deteriorate. Inconvenience occurs.
[0013]
The peroxypolyacid used in the present invention does not contain phosphorus, and the phosphorus content can be suppressed to 0.01 parts by weight or less, preferably 0.005 parts by weight or less per 100 parts by weight of the aluminum pigment of the present invention. Therefore, it is possible to avoid a decrease in coating film properties such as moisture resistance due to the presence of phosphate ions.
[0014]
As a method for producing the aluminum pigment of the present invention, the aluminum pigment is mixed with a solution containing at least one peroxide polyacid represented by the composition formula M x O y · mH 2 O 2 · nH 2 O in a slurry state or a paste. In this state, a method of forming a film derived from peroxide polyacid on the surface by stirring or kneading is preferable.
[0015]
As a method for preparing a solution containing a peroxide polyacid, a method of dissolving a metal element in a hydrogen peroxide solution as a simple substance or a compound such as an alkoxide is suitable. The solution containing the peroxide polyacid may contain unreacted water or inevitable impurities such as hydrogen peroxide. As a specific preparation method, as a solution containing a peroxide polyacid, a metal element as a simple substance or a compound in a hydrogen peroxide solution containing 1 to 70% by weight (more preferably 5 to 50% by weight) of hydrogen peroxide. A method of dissolving 1 to 50% by weight (more preferably 5 to 20% by weight) is suitable. If the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide solution is too low, it becomes difficult to dissolve the metal element, and if it is too high, a severe reaction occurs when the metal element is added, which is dangerous. If the concentration of the metal element dissolved in the hydrogen peroxide solution is too low, it is difficult to obtain a desired effect.
