Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a coating agent giving a coating film that has good adhesion and stability over time, a decorative film having at least one layer formed from the coating agent; and an article decorated with the decorative film. The coating agent of the present invention contains, in a specific ratio, an olefin polymer (A) having a heat of fusion of in the range of 0 to 50 J/g and having a weight average molecular weight (Mw) as measured by GPC of 1×10 4 to 1000×10 4 , a hydrocarbon-based synthetic oil (B) having a 40° C. kinematic viscosity of 30 to 500,000 cSt, and a tackifier (C) having an acid value of 10 or more and having a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of 0.9×10 3 to 3×10 3 .

Claims (21)

a solvent;

wherein the olefin polymer (A) accounts for 30 to 88% by weight, the hydrocarbon-based synthetic oil (B) accounts for 30 to 6% by weight, and the tackifier (C) accounts for 40 to 6% by weight (provided that the total of (A), (B), and (C) is 100% by weight), and

wherein the olefin polymer (A) is at least one selected from the group consisting of (A1″), (A2″) and (A3″):

(A1″) a propylene-based polymer containing 50 to 100 mol % of structural units derived from propylene and 50 to 0 mol % of structural units derived from α-olefins having 2 to 20 carbon atoms excluding propylene (provided that the total of propylene and the structural units derived from α-olefins having 2 to 20 carbon atoms is 100 mol %);

(A2″) a modified olefin polymer obtained from a propylene-based polymer part or whole of which is graft-modified with a polar group-containing monomer, the propylene-based polymer containing 50 to 100 mol % of structural units derived from propylene and 50 to 0 mol % of structural units derived from α-olefins having 2 to 20 carbon atoms excluding propylene (provided that the total of propylene and the structural units derived from α-olefins having 2 to 20 carbon atoms is 100 mol %), wherein based on 100 parts by weight of the modified olefin polymer, 0.1 to 15 parts by weight of structural units derived from the polar group-containing monomer is contained; and
