Abstract

According to the present invention, there is provide a coated film that can be highly prevented from suffering from deposition of oligomers from a surface of the film when exposed to a high temperature condition, and is excellent in adhesion property to various functional layers. The present invention relates to a coated film comprising a single-layer polyester film having an ester cyclic trimer content of not more than 0.7% by weight or a multilayer polyester film comprising a polyester surface layer having an ester cyclic trimer content of not more than 0.7% by weight, and a coating layer formed on at least one surface of the single-layer polyester film or multilayer polyester film, the coating layer being prepared from a coating solution comprising a crosslinking agent in an amount of not less than 70% by weight based on the weight of nonvolatile components in the coating solution.

Claims (27)

1. A coated film comprising:

a single-layer polyester film having an ester cyclic trimer content of not more than 0.7% by weight or a multilayer polyester film comprising a polyester surface layer having an ester cyclic trimer content of not more than 0.7% by weight, and

a coating layer formed on at least one surface of the single-layer polyester film or multilayer polyester film, wherein the coating layer is prepared from a coating solution consisting of at least one crosslinking agent as the sole nonvolatile component in the coating solution.

2. The coated film according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the single-layer polyester film or multilayer polyester film is 10 to 300 μm, and a thickness of the surface layer of the multilayer polyester film is not less than 1.5 μm.

3. The coated film according to claim 1 , wherein the polyester film has a multilayer structure having three layers constituted of two kinds of materials.

4. The coated film according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent is oxazoline or melamine.

5. The coated film according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent comprises combination of oxazoline and melamine.

6. The coated film according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent comprises combination of melamine, an oxazoline compound and an epoxy compound.

7. The coated film according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent comprises combination of melamine, a carbodiimide-based compound and an epoxy compound.

8. A coated film comprising:

a single-layer polyester film having an ester cyclic trimer content of not more than 0.7% by weight or a multilayer polyester film comprising a polyester surface layer having an ester cyclic trimer content of not more than 0.7% by weight, and

a coating layer that is prepared from a coating solution consisting of

at least one crosslinking agent in an amount of not less than 85% by weight based on the weight of nonvolatile components in the coating solution and

at least one selected from the group consisting of

(1) a polymer selected from the group consisting of polyester resins, acrylic resins, polyvinyl resins, polyalkylene glycols, polyalkylene imines, methyl cellulose, hydroxy cellulose and starches,

(2) particles and

(3) at least one additive selected from the group consisting of a defoaming agent, a coatability improver, a thickening agent, an organic lubricant, an antistatic agent, an ultraviolet absorber, an antioxidant, a foaming agent, a dye and a pigment.

9. The coated film according to claim 8 , wherein a thickness of the single-layer polyester film or multilayer polyester film is 10 to 300 μm, and a thickness of the surface layer of the multilayer polyester film is not less than 1.5 μm.

10. The coated film according to claim 8 , wherein the polyester film has a multilayer structure having three layers constituted of two kinds of materials.

11. The coated film according to claim 8 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent is oxazoline or melamine.

12. The coated film according to claim 8 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent comprises combination of oxazoline and melamine.

13. The coated film according to claim 8 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent comprises combination of melamine, an oxazoline compound and an epoxy compound.

14. The coated film according to claim 8 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent comprises combination of melamine, a carbodiimide-based compound and an epoxy compound.

15. The coated film according to claim 8 , wherein the at least one crosslinking agent in the coating solution is present in the amount of not less than 90% by weight based on the weight of nonvolatile components in the coating solution.

16. A coated film comprising:

a single-layer polyester film having an ester cyclic trimer content of not more than 0.7% by weight or a multilayer polyester film comprising a polyester surface layer having an ester cyclic trimer content of not more than 0.7% by weight, and

a coating layer formed on at least one surface of the single-layer polyester film or multilayer polyester film, wherein the coating layer is prepared from a coating solution consisting of at least one crosslinking agent and particles as the sole nonvolatile components in the coating solution.
