2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a CRT is known to generate unnecessary electromagnetic waves from its front surface. In order to block the unnecessary electromagnetic waves, it is effective to form a transparent and highly conductive film having high conductivity and transparency on the front surface of the CRT. Conventionally, in order to form such a transparent conductive thin film on a transparent substrate such as a front surface of a CRT, a transparent conductive coating liquid containing a conductive metal oxide powder such as tin oxide or indium oxide should be applied. Alternatively, a method of forming a vapor-deposited film of metal or conductive metal oxide or a sputtered film is adopted. In particular, the latter method of vapor deposition or sputtering is said to be advantageous at present and is mainly used for forming a transparent conductive thin film having such high conductivity. Further, the transparent conductive thin film obtained by the vapor deposition method or the sputtering method is often used as a transparent electrode used for a liquid crystal display panel, a touch switch, or the like.

However, in the method of forming a transparent conductive thin film by the sputtering method or the vapor deposition method, the film forming cost is high, and a vacuum container is required for forming the film, so that it is formed on a large area substrate. It becomes extremely difficult to form a film on a surface of a film or a material having a complicated shape. On the other hand, the above-mentioned film forming method using the transparent conductive coating liquid is a method capable of forming a transparent conductive thin film at a low film forming temperature even on a large-area substrate or on the surface of a substance having a complicated shape. There is a demand for its practical application.

However, the transparent conductive film obtained from the currently known transparent conductive coating liquid has problems that it has low conductivity and is easily scratched. Due to such a problem, the transparent conductive thin film produced from the coating liquid is, for example, a CRT.
Although it has a sufficient effect to be used as an antistatic film on the front surface, it is insufficient to be used as a shielding film for electromagnetic waves radiated from the CRT front surface and harmful to the human body.
That is, in order to shield electromagnetic waves, higher conductivity than that required to prevent electrification is required, but none of the currently known transparent conductive coating liquids can satisfy this requirement.

The present invention will be described in detail below. A conventional transparent conductive coating composition is used by mixing a conductive filler and a binder as a fixing agent in one liquid. However, when the conductive filler and the binder are mixed in one liquid in this way, the binder component enters between the particles by covering the conductive filler particles during film formation, and as a result, the contact between the conductive filler particles is caused. Will be hindered. Further, since the transparent binder component used is a non-conductor, the film formed from the coating composition does not have conductivity matching the conductivity of the filler.

Seeds are used. In addition, such a conductive filler needs to be a powder in order to maintain the transparency of the film to be formed, and in particular, the average particle diameter of the primary particles thereof is 0.1 μm or less. , It is desirable to obtain higher transparency.

Alcohols, particularly ethyl alcohol, are suitable as the dispersion medium, but water can also be used as the dispersion medium depending on the coating conditions of the conductive paint. Similar effects can be obtained by using water, an organic solvent other than alcohol, or a mixture thereof as the dispersion medium.
Furthermore, when dispersing the conductive filler powder, adding a dispersant such as a surfactant does not adversely affect the effect of the present invention, but rather improves the dispersion of the conductive metal oxide powder. As a result, the transparency of the obtained highly conductive layer can be further improved. Further, in such a conductive coating, even if the conductive filler powder is dispersed in the state of being aggregated to form a coating, the obtained coating sufficiently exhibits its effect as the highly conductive layer of the present invention.
However, in the production of the conductive coating material, according to a usual method, using an ultrasonic disperser, a sand mill, a media mill such as a ball mill, or the like, the operation of dispersing the conductive filler powder in the dispersion medium may be performed. Of course.

In such a conductive paint, the ratio of the transparent conductive filler in the solid content is 62.5-1.
The reason why the content is set to 00% by weight is that if the content is less than 62.5% by weight, the transparency of the obtained film (layer) will be high, but the conductivity will be lowered and the desired high conductivity cannot be obtained. Since the larger the amount of the transparent conductive filler, the more advantageous the conductivity is, it is preferable to use 100% by weight of the solid content as the transparent conductive filler without adding a binder or the like, but the amount of the filler is Since the transparency of the obtained film (layer) decreases as the number increases, the amount of the filler is appropriately determined according to the properties required for the finally obtained film (two-layer type transparent conductive film).

Regarding the binder, in order to improve the strength of the highly conductive layer obtained by applying the conductive coating material, and the convenience in the process of applying the conductive coating material to the substrate. Can be added within a range that maintains the ratio of the transparent conductive filler, that is, within a range that does not impair the conductivity and transparency of the film (layer) to be formed. Then, in order to form a highly conductive layer using such a conductive coating, for example, on the surface of a base material such as well washed glass,
It can be formed by applying the conductive coating material by a dip coating method, a spin coating method, a spray coating method, or the like, and further drying. Here, the heating temperature for drying the applied film may be a temperature at which the dispersion medium is efficiently volatilized. For example, when ethyl alcohol is used as the solvent, it is preferably about 80 ° C.

By forming a reinforcing layer on the highly conductive layer, the reinforcing coating composition fixes the transparent conductive filler particles of the highly conductive layer on the base material, and at the same time, forms the highly conductive layer. The purpose is to improve conductivity, and the binder component is a main solid component of the binder component, and if necessary, a transparent conductive filler, other additives, and a solvent are added. The binder component used here is not particularly limited as long as it can be uniformly applied on the highly conductive layer by using a usual technique, and a desired film strength can be obtained, for example, titanium alkoxide, Inorganic binders such as silicon alkoxide and water glass, or organic binders such as polyester, acrylic resin, epoxy resin, and UV curable resin are used.

In such a reinforcing paint, the proportion of the binder component in the solid content is 71.4 to 100.
The reason why the content is 7% by weight is that if the content is less than 71.4% by weight, the strength (film strength) of the obtained reinforcing layer is lowered, and as a result, the strength of the two-layer type transparent conductive film becomes insufficient. As described above, in the reinforcing coating composition, it is preferable that the solid content thereof is only the binder component, that is, the proportion of the binder component is 100% by weight, from the viewpoint of the strength of the reinforcing layer to be obtained. When imparting new properties to the transparent conductive film, such as ensuring high conductivity as the conductive film, an additive such as a conductive filler can be added within the above range.

The amount of 0.5 to 30% by weight is preferable because the coating operation is easy. Such a reinforcing coating material is applied on the surface of the highly conductive layer by a spin coating method, a spray coating method, or the like, and is cured to form a reinforcing layer. When the thickness of the reinforcing layer is 0.2 μm or less, the hard coat property of the layer (film) can be obtained without impairing the transparency and conductivity of the layer itself, and further, the optical antireflection property can be obtained.

The transparent conductive thin film has high conductivity, strong film strength, and high transparency. Further, as the transparent conductive filler in the conductive coating, one having a sufficiently small particle size and therefore high transparency is used, and further, one having sufficiently high transparency as the binder component of the reinforcing layer is also used. The appearance and transparency of a base material such as a glass substrate after forming a two-layer type transparent conductive film is not impaired. A dye or pigment is added to the reinforcing coating material used for forming the reinforcing layer to the extent that the film strength or transparency after film formation is not significantly impaired, and the two-layer transparent conductive film of the present invention is dyed in any color. As a result, the performance as a color filter can be provided.

According to the two-layer type transparent conductive film of the present invention, since the highly conductive layer is formed on the base material, the transparent conductive filler is uniformly applied on the base material, As a result, sufficient conductivity is exhibited. In addition, since the highly conductive layer contains almost no binder component, the conductive filler-glass substrate and the filler are not fixed, and therefore the high conductive layer alone is more likely to peel off from the glass substrate, and Although it is not possible to obtain high conductivity matching the conductivity of the conductive filler, the following action is obtained because the reinforcing layer is formed on the high conductivity film.

First, the transparent conductive filler in the high conductive layer is glued by the reinforcing layer because the reinforcing layer mainly containing the binder component is coated and cured on the high conductive layer. It is firmly fixed and fixed on the glass substrate. Secondly, in the two-layer type transparent conductive film of the present invention, as compared with a film composed of only a highly conductive layer, the surface tension of the reinforcing coating material forming the reinforcing layer and the subsequent shrinkage accompanying curing of the binder component Tightening between the transparent conductive filler particles in the high conductive layer is performed, thereby increasing the degree of contact between the particles, the contact area between the transparent conductive filler particles is increased to increase the resistance of the filler layer.

If an inorganic binder is used as a binder component and a film is formed on a heat-resistant substrate such as a glass substrate and the curing temperature is set to a high temperature such as 500 ° C., further shrinkage of the binder component and a transparent conductive filler are achieved. Sintering takes place between them, and the above-mentioned effect is further enhanced. Thirdly, by covering the surface of the highly conductive layer with the reinforcing layer, the strength of the entire film, that is, scratch resistance and the like is improved.

As described above, in the two-layer type transparent conductive film of the present invention, a reinforcing layer mainly containing a binder component is coated on the high conductive layer and cured. The transparent conductive filler in the highly conductive layer is glued on the base material by the reinforcing layer, and thus the fixing and fixing of the transparent conductive film on the base material becomes strong. Further, in the two-layer type transparent conductive film of the present invention, as compared with a film composed of only a highly conductive layer, the two-layer type transparent conductive film has a high conductivity due to the surface tension of the reinforcing coating material forming the reinforcing layer and the subsequent contraction due to curing of the binder component. Since the transparent conductive filler particles in the conductive layer are tightened, the degree of contact between the filler particles is increased to increase the contact area between the conductive filler particles and the resistance of the conductive filler layer is lowered. Because
The highly conductive layer has higher conductivity. Furthermore, since the surface of the highly conductive layer is covered with the reinforcing layer, the film strength such as scratch resistance is high.

As described above, the two-layer type transparent conductive film of the present invention has high conductivity and high film strength and high transparency as compared with the transparent conductive film obtained from the conventional transparent conductive coating composition. Since it becomes a high-performance transparent conductive film having both properties, the conventional transparent conductive film cannot be obtained with sufficiently high conductivity, so that it is used only for the antistatic purpose. It can be applied to a wide range of materials such as an electromagnetic wave blocking film for window glass and transparent electrodes such as a liquid crystal display panel and a touch switch.

Further, in order to obtain such a high-performance transparent conductive film by a coating method, conventionally, a high heat treatment such as a sol-gel method or a thermal decomposition method was required. Since the invention uses conductive paints and reinforcing paints that can be dried and cured at low temperatures, the heat treatment temperature required in the film formation process can be significantly reduced, and therefore the degree of freedom in selecting the substrate to be used is increased. Can be greatly increased. Further, since it is more easily obtained than a film obtained by a sputtering method or a vapor deposition method, it is highly versatile and has a great industrial utility value.
