Aqueous resin dispersion, method for its production, coating material and laminate
View Patent ↗To provide an aqueous dispersion of a resin wherein dispersed particles are stable with fine particle sizes and whereby bleeding out is suppressed, which is thus useful as e.g. a surface treating agent for a polyolefin substrate, an adhesive or a coating material. A resin dispersion having dispersed in water a polymer (C) having a hydrophilic polymer (B) bonded to a polyolefin (A) in a ratio of (A):(B)=100:5 to 100:500 (weight ratio); a method for producing the resin dispersion; and a coating material and a laminate, employing it.
1. An aqueous resin dispersion having dispersed in water a polymer (C) having a hydrophilic polymer (B) bonded to a polyolefin (A) in a ratio of (A):(B)=100:5 to 100:500 (weight ratio), wherein
the polymer (C) is a graft copolymer having the hydrophilic polymer (B) graft-bonded to the polyolefin (A),
the polyolefin (A) is a stereo-block polypropylene polymer having isotactic blocks and atactic blocks and having a propylene content of at least 50 mol%, and/or a propylene-butene copolymer having a butene content of from 15 to 50 mol%, which copolymer may include ethylene in an amount of at most 5 mol%, and
the hydrophilic polymer (B) is a polyether resin.
2. The aqueous resin dispersion according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer (C) is dispersed in water with its 50% particle diameter of at most 0.5 μm.
3. The aqueous resin dispersion according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer (C) is dispersed in water with its 50% particle diameter of at most 0.2 μm.
4. The aqueous resin dispersion according to claim 1 , wherein the polyolefin (A) contains substantially no chlorine.
5. The aqueous resin dispersion according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophilic polymer (B) is bonded in an amount of from 0.01 to 5 mmol per 1 g of the polyolefin (A).
6. The aqueous resin dispersion according to claim 1 , wherein the polyolefin (A) has at least one member selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic acid group, a dicarboxylic anhydride group and a dicarboxylic anhydride monoester group.
7. The aqueous resin dispersion according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophilic polymer (B) has at least one reactive group per molecule.
8. The aqueous resin dispersion according to claim 7 , wherein the hydrophilic polymer (B) has at least an amino group as the reactive group.
9. A coating material made of the aqueous resin dispersion as defined in claim 1 .
10. A laminate having formed on a thermoplastic resin-molded product (F) a layer comprising a polymer (C) having a hydrophilic polymer (B) bonded to a polyolefin (A) in a ratio of (A):(B)=100:5 to 100:500 (weight ratio), wherein
the polymer (C) is a graft copolymer having the hydrophilic polymer (B) graft-bonded to the polyolefin (A),
the polyolefin (A) is a stereo-block polypropylene polymer having isotactic blocks and atactic blocks and having a propylene content of at least 50 mol%, and/or a propylene-butene copolymer having a butene content of from 15 to 50 mol%, which copolymer may include ethylene in an amount of at most 5 mol%, and
the hydrophilic polymer (B) is a polyether resin.
11. A laminate having a resin layer formed by applying and heating the aqueous resin dispersion as defined in claim 1 , on a thermoplastic resin-molded product (F).
12. A method for producing a laminate, which comprises forming a resin layer by applying and heating the aqueous resin dispersion as defined in claim 1 , on a thermoplastic resin-molded product (F).
