The present invention relates to a laminated structure and an object detection structure.
Patent Document 1 discloses a metallic coating film in which an undercoat film and a metal film are coated on a substrate in this order and a clear coating film is coated on the metal film, and that this metallic coating film is used for automobile parts.
By the way, automobiles in recent years have made remarkable progress in safety devices, and for example, an automatic collision avoidance system has become common.
The automatic collision avoidance system automatically applies the brakes using image data from an on-board camera and information about the relative distance to an object from a millimeter wave radar.
It is desirable to dispose a millimeter wave radar transceiver that constitutes an automatic collision avoidance system in the front center of the automobile. An automobile emblem is generally disposed in the front center of the automobile. Therefore, it is desirable to dispose the millimeter wave radar transceiver on the rear side of the automobile emblem. For example, it can be assumed that the metallic coating film described in Patent Document 1 is used for automobile emblems.
When laminating multiple members such as automobile emblems, there are cases where gaps are formed between members in consideration of variations in the plate thickness of each member. However, there is a risk that reflection of waves will occur and the transmission attenuation will increase.
On the other hand, there is an insert molding method that eliminates gaps between members. However, since damage to the metal film due to high temperature, high pressure, or the like deteriorates millimeter wave transmission performance and appearance, or the like, a structure that requires heat treatment is required, and the laminated structure becomes complicated.
The present disclosure has been made in view of the above, and the object is to provide a laminated structure capable of reducing transmission attenuation of a millimeter wave and an object detection structure provided with the laminated structure.
The specific means to solve the above problems include the following aspects.
<1> A laminated structure comprising:
According to the present disclosure, a laminated structure capable of reducing transmission attenuation of a millimeter wave and an object detection structure provided with the laminated structure can be provided.
Embodiments for carrying out the invention will be described below in detail. However, the invention is not limited to the following embodiments. In the following embodiments, components (including elemental steps, etc.) thereof are not essential unless otherwise specified. The same applies to numerical values and ranges, which do not limit the invention.
In the present disclosure, a numerical range described using “to” indicates a range including the numerical values before and after “to” as a minimum value and a maximum value, respectively.
In numerical ranges described herein in a stepwise manner, an upper limit value or a lower limit value described in one numerical range may be replaced with an upper limit value or a lower limit value of another numerical range described in a stepwise manner. In addition, in a numerical range described herein, the upper limit value or the lower limit value of the numerical range may be replaced with a value described in the Examples section.
In the present disclosure, each component may contain multiple types of corresponding substances. When there are multiple types of substances corresponding to each component in the composition, the content ratio or content of each component is the total content ratio or content of the multiple types of substances present in the composition unless otherwise specified.
In the present disclosure, particles corresponding to each component may contain multiple types of particles.
In the present disclosure, the term “layer” or “film” refers to, when observing the region where the layer or film is present, not only the case where it is formed over the entire region, but also the case where it is formed only in part of the region.
In the present disclosure, the thickness of each layer refers to the arithmetic mean value obtained by preparing a test piece from the object to be measured using a microtome or the like and measuring the thickness at any five points with an electron microscope.
<Laminated Structure>
A laminated structure of the present disclosure includes a first member, a second member that faces the first member, and a filling member that is disposed between the first member and the second member, and a difference between a value of a relative permittivity of the member with the largest relative permittivity and a value of a relative permittivity of the member with the lowest relative permittivity among the first member, the second member and the filling member is 1.0 or less.
The laminated structure of the present disclosure can reduce transmission attenuation of a millimeter wave. The reason is assumed as below.
In the laminated structure in which a plurality of members are laminated, since reflection of a millimeter wave occurs at each boundary, the amount of transmission of the millimeter wave decreases and the transmission attenuation increases. In particular, when the difference in the relative permittivity of adjacent members is large, or when gas such as air exists in the gap between adjacent members and the difference in the relative permittivity between air and members is large, the transmission attenuation tends to increase.
It is assumed that in the laminated structure of the present disclosure, the filling member is disposed between the first member and the second member, and the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the relative permittivity in each member is set within the above-mentioned range, and therefore reflection of a millimeter wave at each boundary is reduced, respectively, and transmission attenuation of the millimeter wave can be reduced.
The laminated structure of the present disclosure is, for example, useful for reduction in transmission attenuation of a millimeter wave with frequency of from 20 GHz to 300 GHz.
The millimeter wave mentioned in this disclosure means a radio wave with the above frequency band.
In each of the above-mentioned member, a difference between a value of a relative permittivity of the member with the largest relative permittivity and a value of a relative permittivity of the member with the lowest relative permittivity is preferably 1.0 or less, more preferably 0.5 or less, and still more preferably 0.3 or less, from the viewpoint of more reducing transmission attenuation of a millimeter wave.
The lower limit of the above-mentioned difference is not particularly limited as long as it is 0 or more, and for example, may be 0.01 or more, or may be 0.1 or more.
Applications of the laminated structure of the present disclosure include, for example, the exterior members, and more specifically, include the exterior members of moving bodies. Examples of the moving bodies include automobiles such as four-wheeled vehicles and two-wheeled vehicles, trains, carts, ships, aircrafts, bicycles, carriages, trunks with casters, robots, drones, and electronic devices.

The dielectric loss tangent of the filling member is preferably 0.050 or less from the viewpoint that the laminated structure is easily permeable to radio waves such as millimeter waves.

The design layer may be a metal particle layer containing a metal particle, or may be a silver particle layer containing a silver particle. When the laminated structure of the present disclosure is used for an exterior member, and more specifically, used for an emblem, the laminated structure of the present disclosure may include the above-mentioned design layer.
The silver particle layer may be formed by a silver mirror reaction. Further, the silver particle included in the silver particle layer may include a silver particle precipitated by the silver mirror reaction (precipitated silver particle). Further, the silver particle layer may exhibit a sea-island structure in which the silver particles are scattered in islands.
The silver particle layer by the silver mirror reaction is formed by applying the two liquids of a water-soluble silver salt aqueous solution and a reducing agent aqueous solution containing a reducing agent and a strong alkaline component, on the surface of the first member, on the surface of the second member or on the surface of the undercoat layer described later (hereinafter, these surfaces may be collectively referred to as “silver mirror reaction treated surface”) so as to be mixed. This causes an oxidation-reduction reaction to produce a silver particle, and the silver particle layer is formed.
The water-soluble silver salt aqueous solution used for forming the silver particle layer is obtained by dissolving a water-soluble silver salt such as silver nitrate, ammonia, and at least one amine compound selected from the group consisting of an amino alcohol compound, an amino acid, and an amino acid salt in water.
Specific examples of the amine compounds include aminoalcohol compounds such as monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, diisopropanolamine, triethanolamine and triisopropanolamine, amino acids and salts thereof such as glycine, alanine and sodium glycine.
The content ratio of the water-soluble silver salt such as silver nitrate included in the water-soluble silver salt aqueous solution, the content ratio of ammonia, and the content ratio of the amine compound are not particularly limited.
The water-soluble silver salt aqueous solution may contain a dispersant as necessary. Examples of the dispersant include DISPERBYK-102, DISPERBYK-190, DISPERBYK-2012 (BYK-Chemie Japan Co., Ltd.), and citric acid. Among these, DISPERBYK-102, DISPERBYK-190, DISPERBYK-2012 and the like are preferable.
The content ratio of the dispersant contained in the water-soluble silver salt aqueous solution as necessary is preferably from 0.05% by mass to 20% by mass, more preferably from 1% by mass to 10% by mass, and still more preferably from 1% by mass to 5% by mass.
The reducing agent aqueous solution used for forming the silver particle layer is obtained by dissolving a reducing agent and a strong alkaline component in water.

The content ratio of the reducing agent contained in the reducing agent aqueous solution, and the content ratio of the strong alkaline component and the content ratio of the amine compound contained as necessary and the content ratio of the compound containing a formyl group contained as necessary are not particularly limited.
The reducing agent aqueous solution may be contain a dispersant as necessary. The dispersant that can be used in the reducing agent aqueous solution is the same as in the water-soluble silver salt aqueous solution.
The content ratio of the dispersant contained in the reducing agent aqueous solution as necessary is preferably from 0.05% by mass to 20% by mass, more preferably from 1% by mass to 10% by mass, and still more preferably from 1% by mass to 5% by mass.
Examples of the methods for applying the two liquids of the water-soluble silver salt aqueous solution and the reducing agent aqueous solution on the silver mirror reaction treated surface so as to be mixed, include a method in which two kinds of aqueous solutions are mixed in advance and this mixed solution is sprayed onto the silver mirror reaction treated surface using a spray gun or the like, and a method of spraying using a concentric spray gun having a structure in which two aqueous solutions are mixed in the head of the spray gun and immediately discharged, a method of spraying two kinds of aqueous solutions from two head spray gun having two spray nozzles, and a method of simultaneously spraying two kinds of aqueous solutions using two separate spray guns. These can be arbitrarily selected according to the situation.
When the silver particle layer is formed by the silver mirror reaction, a surface activation treatment may be performed to the silver mirror reaction treated surface before applying the two liquid of the water-soluble silver salt aqueous solution and the reducing agent aqueous solution. The surface activation treatment is a treatment in which a surface activation treatment liquid containing an inorganic tin compound is applied to the silver mirror reaction treated surface to attach stannous ions to the silver mirror reaction treated surface. After that, the silver particle layer can be formed by the silver mirror reaction on the silver mirror reaction treated surface on which the surface activation treatment has been performed.
Examples of the treatment methods of treating the silver mirror reaction treated surface with the surface activation treatment liquid containing the inorganic tin compound include a method of immersing the first member or the second member in the surface activation treatment liquid, and a method of applying the surface activation treatment liquid to the surface of the silver mirror reaction treated surface on which the silver particle layer is formed. As a method of applying the surface activation treatment liquid, spray application is suitable regardless of the shape of the first member or the second member. After the surface activation treatment, it is preferable to wash the surplus surface activation treatment liquid adhering to the silver mirror reaction treated surface with deionized water or purified distilled water.
The surface activation treatment liquid can be obtained by dissolving an inorganic tin compound such as tin (II) chloride, tin (II) oxide, or tin (II) sulfate, and as necessary, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen peroxide, polyhydric alcohol, or the like in water. The content ratios of these components contained in the surface activation treatment liquid are not particularly limited.
After treating the silver mirror reaction treated surface with the surface activation treatment liquid, and before forming the silver particle layer by the silver mirror reaction, an activation treatment by silver ions may be performed by using a treatment liquid containing a water-soluble silver salt such as silver nitrate. The content ratio of the water-soluble silver salt in the treatment liquid used in this activation treatment is not particularly limited.
The treatment liquid is brought into contact with the silver mirror reaction treated surface that has been treated with the surface activation treatment liquid. For the activation treatment, spray coating is suitable regardless of the shape of the first member or the second member.
After the silver particle layer is formed by the silver mirror reaction, a solution or the like remaining on the surface after the silver mirror reaction may be removed by washing the surface of the silver particle layer with deionized water, distilled water, or the like.
Furthermore, in order to reduce the reaction activity between silver in the silver particle layer and a residual ion such as a chloride ion or a sulfide ion, the silver particle layer may be performed with a deactivation treatment liquid that is an aqueous solution containing a strong alkaline component such as potassium hydroxide and a sulfite such as sodium sulfite. For the deactivation treatment, spray coating is suitable regardless of the shape of the first member or the second member.
After treating the silver particle layer with the deactivation treatment liquid, the residue of the deactivation treatment liquid remaining on the surface may be removed by washing the surface of the silver particle layer using deionized water, distilled water, or the like.
The content ratio of the strong alkaline component and the content ratio of the sulfite contained in the deactivation treatment liquid are not particularly limited.
The maximum thickness of the silver particle layer is not particularly limited and is preferably from about 30 nm to 200 nm.
When observing the cross section of the silver particle layer in the thickness direction, the ratio of the silver particles in the silver particle layer is preferably 70% or less, and more preferably from 60% to 65%. When the ratio of silver particles in the silver particle layer is 70% or less, the permeability of a millimeter wave radar tends to be further improved.
The ratio of silver particles in the silver particle layer is a value measured as shown below.
A transmission electron micrograph is taken at a magnification of 300,000 times for a cross-section through the thickness direction of the silver particle layer in the laminated structure. A center line passing through the center of the thickness direction of the silver particle layer is determined for the obtained electron micrograph. Next, the length of the portion where the central line and the silver particles overlap is determined. The percentage of the value obtained by dividing the length of the portion where the central line and the silver particles overlap by the length of the entire central line is defined as the ratio of the silver particles in the silver particle layer.
A surface resistivity of the silver particle layer is preferably 107Ω/□ or more, and more preferably 5×107Ω/□ or more. As a result, a moderate gap is likely to be formed between the silver particles that constitute the silver particle layer, and the laminated structure of the present disclosure tends to have excellent millimeter wave permeability.
The upper limit of the surface resistivity of the silver particle layer is not particularly limited.
The surface resistivity of the silver particle layer is a value measured according to JIS K6911:2006.
Tin may be present between the silver particles contained in the silver particle layer and the first member or the second member. The presence of tin between the silver particles and the first member or the second member tends to improve the adhesion between the first member or the second member and the silver particles.
For example, tin existing between the silver particles and the first member or the second member is supplied onto the silver mirror reaction treated surface by the above-mentioned surface activation treatment.
—Undercoat Layer—
From the viewpoint of improving adhesion between the first member or the second member and the silver particle layer, and the viewpoint of forming a smooth surface on the first member or the second member, the undercoat layer may be disposed between the first member or the second member and the silver particle layer.
For forming the undercoat layer, a fluorine resin paint, a polyester resin paint, an epoxy resin paint, a melamine resin paint, a silicone resin paint, an acrylic silicone resin paint, an acrylic urethane resin paint, or the like may be used and it is preferable to use the acrylic silicone resin paint, or the acrylic urethane resin paint. The acrylic silicone resin paint has excellent adhesion to the first member or the second member, high gloss retention and color retention, and excellent chemical resistance, oil resistance and water resistance. The acrylic urethane resin paint can form a soft coating film, and has excellent adhesion, and has also excellent durability, weather resistance and chemical resistance. These resin paints may be used singly or in combination of two or more.
The thickness of the undercoat layer is not particularly limited, and from the viewpoint of ensuring the smooth surface, is preferably from about 5 μm to 25 μm.
In order to enhance adhesion between the undercoat layer and the first member or the second member, a primer layer may be disposed between the undercoat layer and the first member or the second member
—Topcoat Layer—
A topcoat layer may be disposed on the silver particle layer for the purpose of protecting the silver particle layer.
The topcoat layer is a layer disposed on an outermost surface of an ornament, and the topcoat layer makes it easier to protect the silver particle layer.
The topcoat layer preferably has transparency that does not hide the silver particle layer, and may be colorless clear (colorless transparent) or colored clear (colored transparent).
For forming the topcoat layer, the resin paint can be used, and the thermosetting resin can be used. Examples of the thermosetting resin include a fluorine resin paint, a polyester resin paint, an epoxy resin paint, a melamine resin paint, a silicone resin paint, an acrylic silicone resin paint, and an acrylic urethane resin paint, and it is preferable to use the acrylic silicone resin paint, or the acrylic urethane resin paint. The acrylic silicone resin paint has excellent adhesion to the first member or the second member, high gloss retention, color retention, chemical resistance, oil resistance and water resistance. The acrylic urethane resin paint can form a soft coating film, and has excellent adhesion, and has also excellent durability, weather resistance and chemical resistance. These resin paints may be used singly or in combination of two or more.
The thickness of the topcoat layer is not particularly limited, and preferably from about 20 μm to 40 μm. When the thickness of the topcoat layer is 20 μm or more, the silver particle layer can tend to be sufficiently protected, and when it is 40 μm or less, there is a tendency that cracks, peeling, poor adhesion, or the like due to aging is less likely to occur.
The laminated structure of the present disclosure may include a constitution other than the first member, the second member, the filling member or the design layer, and for example, another member may be disposed at least one of the outside of the first member or the outside of the second member.
An example of the laminated structure of the present disclosure will be described with reference to
<Object Detection Structure>
An object detection structure of the present disclosure includes the aforementioned laminated structure of the present disclosure, and a millimeter wave radar that irradiates a millimeter wave toward the laminated structure.

[Evaluation]
—Measurement of Millimeter Wave Transmission Attenuation—
A transmission attenuation, which is an attenuation amount when a millimeter wave (77 GHz) was transmitted through the laminated structure obtained in each of Examples and Comparative Example 1, was measured by the following method.
The transmission attenuation was calculated from the transmission coefficient obtained by the free-space method in which the laminated structure is placed between a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna and a radio wave is vertically irradiated to the first member side of the laminated structure, which is defined by JIS R1679:2007 (method for measuring radio wave absorption characteristics in the millimeter wave band of radio wave absorber).
Herein, the transmission attenuation can be calculated from the following equation using the transmission coefficient.
Transmission attenuation=20 log 10 (transmission coefficient)
The results are shown in Table 1.
As shown in Table 1, in the laminated structure of Examples 1 to 3, the attenuation of the millimeter wave was reduced compared to the laminated structure of Comparative Example 1.
