Abstract

A synthetic polymer film ( 34 A), ( 34 B) having a surface which has a plurality of raised portions ( 34 Ap), ( 34 Bp), wherein a two-dimensional size of the plurality of raised portions ( 34 Ap), ( 34 Bp) is in a range of more than 20 nm and less than 500 nm when viewed in a normal direction of the synthetic polymer film ( 34 A), ( 34 B), the surface having a microbicidal effect, and a concentration of a total of a nitrogen element which is a constituent of a primary amine and a nitrogen element which is a constituent of a secondary amine is not less than 0.29 at %, and a number of moles of an ethylene oxide unit included in one gram is more than 0.0020 and not more than 0.0080.

Claims (12)

1. A synthetic polymer film having a surface which has a plurality of raised portions, wherein

a two-dimensional size of the plurality of raised portions is in a range of more than 20 nm and less than 500 nm when viewed in a normal direction of the synthetic polymer film, the surface having a microbicidal effect,

the synthetic polymer film includes a urethane acrylate structure,

the urethane acrylate structure includes a repeating structure of an ethylene oxide unit of which n is equal to or less than 5 where n is a repeating number of the repeating structure (n is an integer equal to or more than 2),

the urethane acrylate structure does not include a repeating structure of the ethylene oxide unit of which n is equal to or more than 6,

a number of moles of an ethylene oxide unit included in one gram is equal to or more than 0.0095 and equal to or less than 0.0108, and

when the synthetic polymer film is brought into contact with water for a predetermined duration, decrease of the microbicidal effect is suppressed.

2. The synthetic polymer film of claim 1 , wherein the urethane acrylate structure includes a polymer of a urethane acrylate monomer which has three or more functional groups.

3. The synthetic polymer film of claim 2 , wherein the urethane acrylate monomer includes a heterocycle which includes a nitrogen element.

4. The synthetic polymer film of claim 3 , wherein the heterocycle is a cyanuric ring.

5. The synthetic polymer film of claim 1 , wherein a concentration of a total of a nitrogen element which is a constituent of a primary amine and a nitrogen element which is a constituent of a secondary amine is equal to or more than 1.46 at % and equal to or less than 1.63 at %.

6. The synthetic polymer film of claim 1 , wherein the synthetic polymer film is made of a photocurable resin which contains a photopolymerization initiator, and the photopolymerization initiator contains 1,2-Octanedione, 1-[4-(phenylthio)phenyl]-,2-(o-benzoyloxime).
