Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a urethane resin-forming composition, an adhesive agent, a cured product, and a production method for a cured product.


BACKGROUND ART

Adhesive agents for automotive structures have various required properties. Among these, a fracture toughness value can be exemplified as a physical property that has received particular attention.


The fracture toughness value can be thought of as a composite index of flexibility and stiffness and expressed as a unit of energy. The higher the fracture toughness value, the better the resistance when energy (such as an impact) is applied to an adhesive agent, which is preferable.


Patent Literature 1 discloses a urethane adhesive composition including: a first liquid containing a specific formulation amount of filler and a prepolymer obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate with a polyol having a specific molecular weight; and a second liquid containing a catalyst and a polyol having a specific molecular weight, in which the number of moles of hydroxyl groups derived from the polyol in the first liquid and the number of moles of hydroxyl groups derived from the polyol in the second liquid have a specific relationship. According to Patent Literature 1, such a urethane adhesive composition can obtain favorable adhesive performance and also has excellent storage stability.

The urethane resin-forming composition may be a two-component type in which the main agent (A) and the curing agent (B) are present separately, a one-component type in which the main agent (A) and the curing agent (B) are combined, or a multi-component type of three or more components. In a case where the one-component type requires long-term storage, it is preferable to take well-known measures such as blocking an isocyanate group-terminated prepolymer (A-1) so that functional groups do not react in the one-liquid state. In a case where the urethane resin-forming composition is a two-component type or a multi-component type, the urethane resin-forming composition may contain, for example, a first agent containing the main agent (A) and a second agent containing the curing agent (B). In any of the one-component type, two-component type, and multi-component type, each agent may be in a liquid form when in use, and may be, for example, a solid at normal temperature.


The main agent (A) contains an isocyanate group-terminated prepolymer (A-1) which is a reaction product of a component (a) containing a polyol (a-1) having a number average molecular weight of 2,500 or more and a polyisocyanate (a-2).


The curing agent (B) contains at least one diol (B-1) selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic diol and an alicyclic diol, and a diol (B-2) represented by Formula (1) below.

In the present disclosure, the number average molecular weight of the polyol (a-1) indicates a value measured through a method (titration method) according to JIS K 0070-1992.


The content of the polyol (a-1) based on the total amount of the component (a) may be, for example, 5 mass % or more, 10 mass % or more, 12 mass % or more, or 15 mass % or more.

If the content of the polyol (a-1) is small, the change in elastic modulus of a cured product tends to be further suppressed.

In other words, the urethane resin-forming composition may be a composition for which a main agent (A) and a curing agent (B) are selected so that a urethane resin having a content of the structural unit derived from the polyol (a-1) within the above-described ranges is formed. In the urethane resin-forming composition, the polyol (a-1) can also be formulated with the curing agent (B).

The content of the polyisocyanate (a-2) based on the total amount of the component (a) may be, for example, 40 mass % or more, 42 mass % or more, 44 mass % or more, or 46 mass % or more. If the content of the polyisocyanate (a-2) is large, the change in elastic modulus of a cured product tends to be further suppressed. In addition, the content of the polyisocyanate (a-2) based on the total amount of the component (a) may be, for example, 95 mass % or less, 90 mass % or less, 88 mass % or less, or 85 mass % or less. If the content of the polyisocyanate (a-2) is small, the fracture toughness value tends to be further improved.


In the urethane resin formed from the urethane resin-forming composition, the content of the structural unit derived from the polyisocyanate (a-2) is preferably 500 mmol/kg to 3,000 mmol/kg and more preferably 750 mmol/kg to 2,500 mmol/kg. In other words, the urethane resin-forming composition may be a composition for which a main agent (A) and a curing agent (B) are selected so that a urethane resin having a content of the structural unit derived from the polyisocyanate (a-2) within the above-described ranges is formed. In addition, it can also be said that the content of the structural unit derived from the polyisocyanate (a-2) in the isocyanate group-terminated prepolymer (A-1) in the urethane resin-forming composition may be within the above-described ranges.


The component (a) may contain a polyfunctional component. The polyfunctional component is a compound having three or more reactive groups. The reactive groups may be any group that can react with an isocyanate group or a hydroxy group to form a bond. The reactive groups may be, for example, an isocyanate group or active hydrogen groups (for example, a hydroxy group and an amino group). The polyfunctional component can be used alone or in a combination of two or more thereof.


The polyfunctional component may be a polyol (a-1), a polyisocyanate (a-2), or a compound (a-3) other than the polyol (a-1) and the polyisocyanate (a-2).


The compound (a-3) may be a compound having three or more active hydrogen groups, a compound having three or more hydroxy groups, or a compound having three hydroxy groups. Examples of compounds (a-3) include glycerol, trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol, N,N-bishydroxypropyl-N-hydroxyethylamine, triethanolamine, triisopropanolamine, a monomer polyol of modified ethylenediamine propylene oxide, a monomer polyol of modified trimethylolpropane propylene oxide, and modified pentaerythritol propylene oxide.

The content of the polyfunctional component based on the total amount of the component (a) may be, for example, 10 mass % or less, 7 mass % or less, 5 mass % or less, or 3 mass % or less. The component (a) may not contain a polyfunctional component, and the content of the polyfunctional component may be 0 mass % or more based on the total amount of the component (a).


In the urethane resin formed from the urethane resin-forming composition, the content of the structural unit derived from the polyfunctional component is preferably 25 mmol/kg to 1,000 mmol/kg and more preferably 40 mmol/kg to 600 mmol/kg. If the content of the structural unit derived from the polyfunctional component is within the above-described ranges, there is a tendency to obtain a cured product having a higher fracture toughness value (G1c) and superior toughness. In other words, the urethane resin-forming composition may be a composition for which a main agent (A) and a curing agent (B) are selected so that a urethane resin having a content of the structural unit derived from the polyfunctional component within the above-described ranges is formed. In the urethane resin-forming composition, the polyfunctional component can also be formulated with the curing agent (B). That is, the “content of the structural unit derived from the polyfunctional component” described above may be a total amount of a structural unit derived from a polyfunctional component in the component (a) and a structural unit derived from a polyfunctional component in the curing agent (B).


In the urethane resin formed from the urethane resin-forming composition, the content of the structural unit derived from a crosslinkable group of the polyfunctional component is preferably 25 mmol/kg to 1,000 mmol/kg and more preferably 40 mmol/kg to 600 mmol/kg. If the content of the structural unit derived from the crosslinkable group is within the above-described ranges, there is a tendency to obtain a cured product having a high fracture toughness value (G1c) and excellent toughness. In other words, the urethane resin-forming composition may be a composition for which a main agent (A) and a curing agent (B) are selected so that a urethane resin having a content of the structural unit derived from the crosslinkable group within the above-described ranges is formed. In the urethane resin-forming composition, the polyfunctional component can also be formulated with the curing agent (B). That is, the “content of the structural unit derived from the crosslinkable group” described above may be a total amount of a structural unit derived from a crosslinkable group in a polyfunctional component in the component (a) and a structural unit derived from a crosslinkable group in a polyfunctional component in the curing agent (B).


Here, the crosslinkable group is a functional group that forms a crosslink. Taking a trifunctional polyol (for example, glycerol) as an example, one hydroxy group in one molecule forms a crosslink and the remaining two hydroxy groups do not contribute to cross-linking, and therefore, in this case, there is one crosslinkable group. That is, in the case of the trifunctional polyol, the content of the crosslinkable group is synonymous with the content of the trifunctional polyol because the trifunctional polyol has one crosslinkable group.


The component (a) may further contain, as components other than the polyol (a-1) and the polyisocyanate (a-2), one or more diols (a-4), as described below, selected from the group consisting of a diol (B-1), a diol (B-2), and a diol (B-4) described below.


The content of the diols (a-4) based on the total amount of the component (a) may be, for example, 5 mass % or less, 4 mass % or less, 3 mass % or less, or 2 mass % or less. The component (a) may not contain the diols (a-4), and the content of the diols (a-4) may be 0 mass % or more based on the total amount of the component (a).


In the component (a), at least one of the polyol (a-1) and the polyisocyanate (a-2) is preferably a liquid at 25° C. and 1 atm.

When the content of the filler (C) is 10 mass % or more, dripping can be more favorably suppressed. When the content of the filler (C) is 70 mass % or less, the filler (C) is likely to be more uniformly mixed with other components, and more favorable adhesive strength and coatability can be obtained. In a case where the urethane resin-forming composition is a two-component type, the total mass of the urethane resin-forming composition may be a total amount of a first agent and a second agent mixed with each other to form a cured product.


The urethane resin-forming composition may be a two-component type in which a first agent containing the main agent (A) and a second agent containing the curing agent (B) are present separately, or a one-component type in which the main agent (A) is mixed with the curing agent (B).

The urethane resin-forming composition preferably contains 1.0 mass % or less of a solvent. In addition, the urethane resin-forming composition may not contain substantially a solvent, that is, solvent-free. However, in a case where a solvent is contained as an impurity, this case belongs to a substantial solvent-free category.


In a case where the urethane resin-forming composition is a two-component type, the content of a solvent in the first agent is preferably 1.0 mass % or less, and the content of a solvent in the second agent is preferably 1.0 mass % or less. In addition, the content of the solvents in the first agent and the second agent mixed is preferably 1.0 mass % or less based on the total amount of the first agent and the second agent mixed to form a cured product.

Examples of application fields include the automotive field, the display field, the recording medium field, the electronic material field, the battery field, the optical component field, the construction field, the electronic device field, and the aviation field.


The composition can be used in the automotive field, for example, automotive structural parts, switch parts, headlamps, internal engine parts, electrical parts, drive engines, and brake oil tanks. The composition can be used in the display field, for example, liquid crystal displays, organic electroluminescence, and light emitting diode display devices. The composition can be used in the recording medium field, for example, video discs, CDs, DVDs, MDs, pickup lenses, VCM magnets, spindle motors, hard disk peripheral members, and Blu-ray Disc.


The composition can be used in the electronic material field, for example, electronic components, electrical circuits, electrical contacts, and semiconductor elements, and detailed examples of such applications include sealing materials, die-bonding agents, conductive adhesive agents, anisotropic conductive adhesive agents, and interlayer adhesive agents for multilayer substrates including build-up substrates. The composition can be used in the battery field, for example, lithium ion batteries, manganese batteries, alkali batteries, nickel batteries, fuel cells, silicon solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells, and organic solar cells. The composition can be used in the optical component field, for example: optical fiber materials around optical switches and optical connectors in optical communication systems; optical passive components; optical circuit components; and the periphery of optoelectronic integrated circuits. The composition can be used in the electronic device field, for example, camera modules.


Since the urethane resin-forming composition has a high fracture toughness value, it can be particularly suitably used as an adhesive agent for an automotive structure.

The upper limit of the fracture toughness value of the cured product is not particularly limited. The fracture toughness value of the cured product may be, for example, 6.0 or less, 4.0 or less, or 3.0 or less.


In the present disclosure, the fracture toughness value of a cured product is measured through the following method by a DCP test.
