Abstract

The present invention provides an ultraviolet-curable resin composition, comprising a silicone compound represented by the following formula (1): [Chemical Formula 1] (CH 3 ) 3 Si—O-A-Si(CH 3 ) 3   (1) (wherein A represents a group in which n structural units represented by a chemical formula (2) and m structural units represented by a chemical formula (3) are bonded in a random form or block form, n is an integer ranging from 1 to 15, n/m is 1/5 to 1/20, and two structural units represented by the above chemical formulas (2) and (2), (2) and (3), (3) and (3) are not bonded by oxygen-oxygen bond and a photocurable compound that reacts with the silicone compound. The present invention also provides an optical information recording medium having a surface protective layer with an excellent spot prevention function and spot wipe-ability.

Claims (18)

1. An optical information recording medium comprising a surface protective layer formed on at least one surface of the optical information recording medium, wherein the surface protective layer includes a cured film made from an ultraviolet-curable resin composition, comprising:

a silicone compound represented by formula (1):

(CH 3 ) 3 Si—O—A—Si(CH 3 ) 3   (1)

wherein A represents a group in which

n structural units are represented by formula (2):

wherein R 1 represents a bivalent group in which (i) and (ii) are bonded, (i) represents an alkylene group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, (ii) represents a bivalent group in which plural alkylene groups having 2 to 18 carbon atoms are linked by ether bond, R 1 is bonded with Si directly or through an oxygen atom, R 2 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and

m structural units represented by formula (3):

are bonded in a random form or block form, n is an integer ranging from 1 to 15, n/m is 1/5 to 1/20, the two structural units represented by the above chemical formulas (2) and (2), (2) and (3), (3) and (3) are not bonded by oxygen-oxygen bond; and

trimethylolpropanetri(meth)acrylate, wherein the silicone compound is 0.05 to 5% by mass with respect to the ultraviolet-curable resin composition.

2. The optical information recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein at least one light-reflective layer is laminated on a substrate and the surface protective layer is formed on the reverse side of the substrate from the light-reflective layer.

3. The optical information recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein at least one light-reflective layer is laminated on a substrate and the surface protective layer is formed on an outermost layer opposite to the substrate.

4. The optical information recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the number average molecular weight of the silicone compound is 200 to 12000.

5. The optical information recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the viscosity of the ultraviolet-curable resin composition is 20 to 150 mPa·s.

6. The optical information recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein

said (i) represents —CH 2 —, —CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 —, —CH 2 CH(CH 3 )—, —CH 2 (CH 2 ) 4 CH 2 —, CH 2 CH(CH 2 CH 3 )CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 —, —CH 2 (CH 2 ) 10 CH 2 —, or CH 2 (CH 2 ) 16 CH 2 —;

said (ii) represents —(OCH 2 CH 2 ) p —, —(OC 3 H 6 ) p —, (OCH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 ) p —, —(OCH 2 (CH 2 ) 10 CH 2 ) p — wherein p represents an integer of 1 or more, or a group in which —OCH 2 CH 2 — and —OCH 2 CH(CH 3 )— are randomly bonded.

7. The optical information recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein R 1 represents —CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Y—, where, Y is a group in which —OC 2 H 4 — and OC 3 H 6 — are randomly bonded.

8. The optical information recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the surface protective layer has a pencil hardness of 2H or more.
