Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a novel fluoroalkyl group-containing organosilicon oligomer, a method for preparing same and a surface treating agent.

An organic compound having fluoroalkyl groups attracts attention as a compound exhibiting useful properties such as light proof properties, water and oil repellency and physiologically active properties. In particular, fluoroalkyl group-containing organosilicon compounds in which fluoroalkyl groups are introduced into a siloxane have excellent characteristics such as low surface tension, low refractivity, thermal resistance, resistance to coldness, resistance to oil, electrical insulation, water repellency, demolding properties, defoamability and resistance to chemicals. Thus, the compounds are extensively used in various fields, for example, synthetic intermediates of medicines and pesticides, adherence improvers such as a resist used in the production process for semi-conductor devices, surface treating agents for giving water and oil repellency and resistance contamination on the surface of optical lenses, glass lenses and glass applicances, and materials for giving demolding properties. As the fluoroalkyl group-containing silicon compounds, compounds in which fluoroalkyl groups are introduced into polysiloxane are disclosed in Japanese laid-open patent application No. 2-219829 and Japanese laid-open patent application No. 2-219830, respectively. However, a fluoroalkyl group-containing organosilicon oligomer in which fluoroalkyl groups are introduced into an organosilicon oligomer has not been known to date.

Alternatively, as the surface treating agents forming a film on the surface of a substance and giving the substance characteristics such as protective properties for the substance, decorative character, water and oil repellency, electrical insulation, demolding properties and resistance to contamination, fluorine resins having fluoroalkyl groups such as fluoroacrylate polymers are conventionally employed extensively. However, there are disadvantages that the fluorine resins have no good adhesion against inorganic materials such as metal, glass and cement or organic materials such as plastics and substrates.

In Japanese laid-open patent application No. 59-140280, a fluoroalkyl group-containing silicon compound is proposed to improve the adhesion. However, there are still disadvantages that the sufficient adhesion is not obtained and the water and oil repellency is lowered. Therefore, it has been desired to develope a surface treating agent excellent in both the water and oil repellency and the adhesion.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An object of the present invention is to provide a novel fluoroalkyl group-containing organosilicon oligomer and a method for preparing same which oligomer has excellent characteristics such as low surface tension, low refractivity, thermal resistance, resistance to coldness, resistance to oil, electrical insulation, water repellency, demolding properties, defoamability, resistance to chemicals and water and oil repellency on the surface of an optical lens, a glass lens, glass appliances and the like.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the fluoroalkyl group-containing organosilicon oligomer at high yield and with ease without catalysts and a special device.

When n.sub.1 is 11 or more or n.sub.2 is 9 or more, solubility into solvents of the fluoroalkanoyl peroxide represented by the formula (II) becomes lower.

The fluoroalkanoyl peroxide represented by the formula (II) may be enumerated by the optionally elected compound from R.sub.F as described hereinabove in relation to the formula (I) or (IV).

Further, the reaction time may be in the range of 30 minutes to 20 hours, preferably 3 hours to 10 hours on industrial scale.

According to the method of the invention, the fluoroalkanoyl peroxide may be reacted with the vinyl group-containing organosilicon compound or the methacryl group-containing organosilicon compound under the aforementioned various reaction conditions to prepare the organosilicon oligomer 1 or 2 in a single step reaction.

More preferably, 1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane may be industrially preferred. When the solvent is employed, the concentration of the peroxydifluoroalkanoyl based on the entire solvent may preferably be in the range of 0.5 wt. % to 30 wt. %.

The reaction product according to the method of the invention may be purified by the known method such as distillation, column chromatography, recrystallization, or reprecipitation.

According to the present invention, a surface treating agent includes as an effective ingredient a component selected from the organosilicon oligomer 1, a hydrolyzed product thereof, a hydrolyzed condensation product thereof and mixtures thereof or a component selected from the organosilicon oligomer 2, a hydrolyzed product thereof, a hydrolyzed condensation product thereof and mixtures thereof. The surface treating agent is obtained, for example, by dissolving the aforementioned component into a solvent. The solvent may be enumerated by a mixed solvent of a fluorinated chlorohydrocarbon containing water and an alcoholic solvent, an alcoholic solvent containing water, an alcoholic solvent and the like. The fluorinated chlorohydrocarbon may preferably be enumerated by 1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane, 1,2-difluorotetrachloroethane, benzotrifluoride and the like. The alcoholic solvent may preferably be enumerated by ethanol, isopropanol, butanol and the like. Although a mixing ratio of the mixed solvent is not limited, it may be preferable that the organosilicon oligomer 1 or 2 be dissolved into the mixed solvent. A water content may be preferably in the range of 1 wt. % to 30 wt. % of the mixed solvent or the solvent.

Further, the hydrolyzed product and the hydrolyzed condensation product of the organosilicon oligomer 1 or 2 employed as the effective ingredient are compounds obtained from the organosilicon oligomer 1 or 2 by dissolving the organosilicon oligomer 1 or 2 into the solvent and hydrolyzing or hydrolytically condensing the resulting solution.

To employ the surface treating agent of the present invention, the effective ingredient is diluted with the solvent. The surface treating agent may contain as the effective ingredient only the organosilicon oligomer 1 or 2 or partly or totally contain the hydrolyzed product and/or the hydrolyzed condensation product thereof. The concentration of the effective ingredient in the solvent may preferably be in the range of 0.005 wt. % to 20 wt. %. When the concentration is less than 0.005 wt. %, a film thickness of the surface treating agent is thin so that the water and oil repellency is lowered. When the concentration exceeds 20 wt. %, although the film thickness is thick, the water and oil repellency is not increased and the uniformity of the surface is lowered so that the surface treating agent is easily peeled off from the surface.

As the treating method of the surface treating agent of the present invention, the known method such as a brush coating method, a spray coating method, a roll coating method, a spin coating method, a dip coating method and the like may be used. Although the treating temperature may be a room temperature, the temperature conditions may be set to optional conditions to control a film forming velocity. The film thickness of the surface treating agent may be preferably in the range of several angstromes to several ten microns. It may be possible to control optionally the film thickness by adjusting the concentrations, the treating temperatures, revolving speed in the spin coating method and pulling-up speed in the dip coating method.

The fluoroalkyl group-containing organosilicon oligomer of the present invention is a novel compound and has characteristics such as low surface tension, low refractivity, thermal resistance, resistance to coldness, resistance to oil, electrical insulation, water repellency, demolding properties, defoamability, resistance to chemicals and the like so that it may be utilized for synthetic intermidiates of medicines and pesticides, adherence improvers for resists of semi-conductor devices and the like, surface treating agents for giving water and oil repellency and resistance to contamination on the surface of an optical lens, a glass lens, glass applicances and the like and materials for giving demolding properties. Further, according to the method of the present invention, a fluoroalkyl group-containing organosilicon oligomer is easily prepared for a short time period and at high yield in single step reaction without using catalysts or specific devices.

The surface treating agent of the present invention has characteristics of both the fluoroalkyl group and the silicon compound so that the agent is excellent in water and oil repellency, adherence with substrates, low adherence with the surface, surface lubrication properties and the like.
