Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

To provide a laminate whereby, when a printed layer is formed by an inkjet printing system, the adhesion of the printed layer can be easily maintained and it is possible to obtain a printed matter having excellent durability; a printed matter using said laminate; and a method for producing the printed matter. The laminate comprises a film-shaped substrate 1 containing a first fluorinated polymer and a coating layer 3 present in contact directly with one side or each side of the substrate 1, wherein the coating layer 3 is a coating layer containing a second fluorinated polymer different from the first fluorinated polymer, the visible light transmittance of the substrate is 0% or more than 0%, and when it is more than 0%, the visible light transmittance difference expressed by the following formula (1), of the laminate, is at most 40%. Visible light transmittance difference=(visible light transmittance (%) of the substrate−visible light transmittance of the laminate)/visible light transmittance of the substrate×100 (%) (1).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A laminate, comprising: a film-shaped substrate containing a first fluorinated polymer; and a coating layer containing a second fluorinated polymer different from the first fluorinated polymer, and directly contacting with one side or each side of the substrate, wherein visible light transmittance of the substrate is 0%, or more than 0%, and when the visible light transmittance of the substrate is more than 0%, a visible light transmittance difference calculated by the formula (1), is at most 40%: Visible light transmittance difference={(visible light transmittance of the substrate—visible light transmittance of the laminate)/visible light transmittance of the substrate}×100(%)  (1). 2. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the visible light transmittance difference is from 0 to 10%. 3. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the substrate has a thickness of from 25 to 1,000 μm. 4. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the first fluorinated polymer is at least one type selected from the group consisting of a vinyl fluoride polymer, a vinylidene fluoride polymer, a vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, a tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene-vinylidene fluoride copolymer, a tetrafluoroethylene-propylene copolymer, a tetrafluoroethylene-vinylidene fluoride-propylene copolymer, an ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer, a hexafluoropropylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer, an ethylene-hexafluoropropylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer, a perfluoro(alkyl vinyl ether)-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer, a chlorotrifluoroethylene polymer, an ethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer and a propylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer. 5. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the second fluorinated polymer has a glass transition temperature of from 20 to 70° C. 6. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the second fluorinated polymer has at least one type of polar group selected from the group consisting of a hydroxy group, a carboxy group, an amido group and a glycidyl group. 7. The laminate according to claim 6 , wherein the second fluorinated polymer comprises a monomer unit having the polar group. 8. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the second fluorinated polymer comprises a fluoroolefin unit. 9. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the substrate further contains an ultraviolet blocking agent. 10. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the coating layer further contains an ultraviolet blocking agent. 11. A method, comprising: printing the laminate according to claim 1 by inkjet printing, wherein a surface of the laminate having the coating layer is printed. 12. A film-structured building, comprising: a film material comprising the laminate according to claim 1 . 13. A printed matter, comprising: the laminate according to claim 1 ; and a printed layer with a thickness of at least 6 μm directly formed on the coating layer of the laminate. 14. A method for producing a printed matter, comprising: forming a printed layer by applying and curing a curable composition by an inkjet printing system directly on the coating layer of the laminate according to claim 1 . 15. The method according claim 14 , wherein the curable composition is an ultraviolet-curable curable composition. 16. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the visible light transmittance of the substrate is 0%. 17. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the visible light transmittance difference is from 0 to 5%. 18. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the coating layer forms an outermost layer of the laminate, and the coating layer does not have tackiness at room temperature. 19. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the laminate comprises a pair of the coating layers each directly contacting each side of the substrate. 20. The printed matter of claim 13 , wherein the coating layer forms an outermost layer of the laminate, the coating layer does not have tackiness at room temperature, and the printed layer is formed on a part of the coating layer.
