Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a curable silicone composition, and more particularly it is concerned with a curable silicone composition that comprises an organopolysiloxane having a fluorine-containing substituent and is useful for forming a film having a small surface energy.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Uses of curable silicones include, for example, release agents used in relation to pressure sensitive adhesives. The pressure sensitive adhesives are used in the form of, for example, rolled pressure-sensitive tapes and pressure-sensitive labels. Since the pressure-sensitive tapes must be unrolled when used, a coating with release properties is previously applied on the back surface of the tape so that they can be smoothly unrolled and also the pressure-sensitive adhesive may always remain on one surface of the tape. As for the pressure-sensitive label, a coating with release properties is applied on the surface of its support so that it can be smoothly peeled from the support when used and also no pressure-sensitive adhesive may remain on the support. Such a coating with release properties is required to have a sufficient cohesion by which the coating is strongly adhered to the back surface of the tape or to the support and may not migrate to the pressure-sensitive adhesive. Known as curable silicones excellent in such release properties are those mainly composed of an organopolysiloxane containing a fluorine-containing substituent represented by the formula: C.sub.n F.sub.2n+1 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --where n is an integer of 1 or more (Japanese Unexamined patent Publication (KOKAI) Nos. 225,581/1987 and 320/1988).
In recent years, pressure-sensitive adhesives mainly composed of dimethylpolysiloxane are used in wide purpose because of their thermal resistance, cold resistance, chemical resistance and electrical insulating properties. Because of their non-toxicity, they are also used in the field of medical use. The pressure sensitive adhesives of this type, however, have so strong adhesion that the release agents comprising the conventional curable silicones may have insufficient in the release properties to be imparted. In particular, preservation for a long term of the tape or label that employ the pressure sensitive adhesive mainly composed of dimethylpolysiloxane may result in remarkable increase in peel force which is needed when the tape is peeled from its back surface or when the label is peeled from the support. Consequently, destruction of a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and a release agent layer may occur when they are peeled, so that the tape or label may become of no use. In this respect, no satisfactory release properties can be attained even in the case of the above release agents disclosed in the Japanese Unexamined patent Publication (KOKAI) Nos. 225/581/1987 and 320//1988.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, an object of this invention is to provide a curable silicone composition that can form a film having good release properties and durability thereof because of markedly small surface energy.
As such a composition, this invention provides a curable silicone composition, comprising:
(a) an organopolysiloxane having in its molecule at least two silicon-bonded C.sub.2 to C.sub.8 alkenyl groups and containing in its molecule at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of silicon-bonded fluorine-containing substituents represented by Formulas (1) to (4) in an amount of 3 mole % or more of all of the silicon-bonded organic groups in the molecule: ##STR1## where n is an integer of 1 to 5, ##STR2## where n is an integer of 1 to 5,
C.sub.m F.sub.2m+1 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 OCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --(3)
where m is an integer of 3 to 10, and
C.sub.m F.sub.2m+1 CH.sub.2 OCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 -- (4)
where m is an integer of 3 to 10;
(b) an organohydrogenpolysiloxane having in its molecule at least three silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms and containing in its molecule at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of silicon-bonded fluorine-containing substituents represented by said Formulas (1) to (4) and Formula (14):
R.sup.5 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 -- (14)
where R.sup.5 represents a C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 perfluoroalkyl group in an amount of 3 mole % or more of all of the silicon-bonded organic groups in the molecule; and
(c) a catalyst for promoting the addition reaction between said silicon-bonded alkenyl groups and said silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms; the proportion of said silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in Component (b) to said silicon-bonded alkenyl groups in Component (a) being at least 0.5.
The composition of this invention strongly adheres to various substrates such as papers, plastic films, metals and glass, and also sufficiently cure to form a film having a low surface energy. The film has good release properties, water repellency and oil repellency.
The resulting film shows peel force that is sufficiently small from the viewpoint of practical use, against pressure-sensitive adhesives having strong adhesion as exemplified by dimethylpolysiloxane based pressure-sensitive adhesives, which small peel force is stable with time. Moreover, there may occur no migration of silicone components to the pressure-sensitive adhesives, and hence the composition is useful as a good release agent for use in pressure-sensitive tapes or labels. The composition, as being capable of forming a film of low surface energy, is also useful as a release agent in other uses as exemplified by mold release agents for a variety of sorts of rubbers and plastics, graffiti-preventive, bills-preventive or anti-icing coating materials. The composition is also useful, for example, as a water repellent for use in fibers such as raincoats, tents and carpets: a waterproofing agent or water repellent for use in construction materials such as outer wall materials and bathroom wall materials: and a moistureproof coating material for printed boards, electronic parts or the like.

Next, these treatment solutions each were coated on polyethylene-laminated paper according to the method shown below to form a cured film. On the resulting respective films, measurement of peel force and adhesion to supports after aging at 25.degree. C. and 70.degree. C. were made according to the evaluation methods shown below. Results obtained are shown in Table 4.
(1) Coating method
The composition is diluted with Freon TF (available from Mitsui Du Pont Fluorochemical Co.) to give a concentration of 5 %, and coated on polyethylene-laminated paper by using a bar coater No. 14. The paper coated with the composition is heated at 150.degree. C. for 60 seconds by use of a hot-air circulation dryer to form a cured film.
(2) Evaluation methods
1. Aging
A dimethylpolysiloxane based pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, Nitofron No. 903 UL (available from Nitto Denki Kogyo K.K.; 19 mm wide), is stuck on the surface of the cured film, and aging is effected under a load of 20 g/cm.sup.2 at 25.degree. C. or 70.degree. C. respectively for 24 hours.
2. Measurement of peel force
After the aging at 25.degree. C. or 70.degree. C., the stuck paper is pulled using a tensile tester at angle of 180.degree. at a peel rate of 30 cm/min to measure the force (g) required for peeling.
3. Measurement of adhesion
A pressure-sensiiive tape peeled from the surface of the cured film is stuck to a stainless steel sheet, and then this tape is pulled at an angle of 180.degree. with the adhesive tape at a rate of 30 cm/min to measure the force (g) required for peeling.
For comparison, as a blank, the above pressure-sensitive tape is stuck on a Teflon sheet to make measurement of peel force and adhesion in the same manner as above.
As will be clear from Table 4, all of Examples 1 to 17 showed peel force that is sufficiently low from the viewpoint of practical use, and also showed the same level of adhesion as in the blank (the example of Teflon sheet). These tell that there is no transfer to the adhesive. It is seen, on the other hand, that no cured film is obtained in Comparative Example 4 and that, in Comparative Examples 1, 2, 3 and 5, the peel force of cured films is so large that they can be of no practical use.
