Abstract

A method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex includes a step of adding an ethylenic double bond-containing silane coupling agent (B) to a chloroprene polymer latex and graft copolymerizing the ethylenic double bond-containing silane coupling agent (B) to the chloroprene polymer (A) in the chloroprene polymer latex at 10° C. to 50° C. (inclusive). The amount of the ethylenic double bond-containing silane coupling agent (B) added is 0.4 parts by mass to 9.0 parts by mass (inclusive) per 100 parts by mass of the chloroprene polymer (A). The present invention also relates to an adhesive containing the chloroprene graft copolymer latex and to a method for using the adhesive. The present invention can provide a method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex containing no organic solvent and having high adhesive strength to glass, an adhesive containing the same, and a method for using the adhesive.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex, comprising a step for adding an ethylenic double bond-containing silane coupling agent (B) to a chloroprene polymer latex and graft-copolymerizing the ethylenic double bond-containing silane coupling agent (B) to a chloroprene polymer (A) in the chloroprene polymer latex at a temperature of 10° C. or higher and 50° C. or lower, wherein the addition amount of the ethylenic double bond-containing silane coupling agent (B) is 0.4 parts by mass or higher and 9.0 parts by mass or lower relative to 100 parts by mass of the chloroprene polymer (A).

2. The method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex according to claim 1 , wherein the ethylenic double bond-containing silane coupling agent (B) is a (meth)acryloyl group-containing silane coupling agent.

3. The method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex according to claim 1 , wherein the tetrahydrofuran insoluble content in a chloroprene graft copolymer being present in the chloroprene graft copolymer latex is 6% by mass or higher and 70% by mass or lower of the amount of the chloroprene graft copolymer.

4. The method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex according to claim 1 , wherein the chloroprene polymer latex is obtained by radical emulsion homopolymerization of chloroprene (A-1) or by radical emulsion copolymerization of chloroprene (A-1) and a monomer (A-2) being copolymerizable with the chloroprene (A-1).

5. The method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex according to claim 4 , wherein an emulsifier used in the radical emulsion homopolymerization or in the radical emulsion copolymerization is at least one emulsifier selected from anionic emulsifiers and nonionic emulsifiers.

6. An adhesive comprising a chloroprene graft copolymer latex obtained by the method according to claim 1 .

7. The adhesive according to claim 6 , comprising at least one additive selected from tackifiers, acid acceptors, and antioxidants.

8. The adhesive according to claim 6 that is used for glass adhesion.

9. An adhesion method comprising a step of applying the adhesive according to claim 6 onto an adherend and bonding the adherend, a step of drying the adhesive, and a step of performing a heat treatment at a temperature of 50° C. or higher and 100° C. or lower after the drying.

10. The adhesion method according to claim 9 , wherein at least one of the adherends is glass.

11. The method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex according to claim 2 , wherein the tetrahydrofuran insoluble content in a chloroprene graft copolymer being present in the chloroprene graft copolymer latex is 6% by mass or higher and 70% by mass or lower of the amount of the chloroprene graft copolymer.

12. The method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex according to claim 2 , wherein the chloroprene polymer latex is obtained by radical emulsion homopolymerization of chloroprene (A-1) or by radical emulsion copolymerization of chloroprene (A-1) and a monomer (A-2) being copolymerizable with the chloroprene (A-1).

13. The method for producing a chloroprene graft copolymer latex according to claim 12 , wherein an emulsifier used in the radical emulsion homopolymerization or in the radical emulsion copolymerization is at least one emulsifier selected from anionic emulsifiers and nonionic emulsifiers.

14. An adhesive comprising a chloroprene graft copolymer latex obtained by the method according to 2.

15. The adhesive according to claim 14 , comprising at least one additive selected from tackifiers, acid acceptors, and antioxidants.

16. The adhesive according to claim 14 that is used for glass adhesion.

17. An adhesion method comprising a step of applying the adhesive according to claim 14 onto an adherend and bonding the adherend, a step of drying the adhesive, and a step of performing a heat treatment at a temperature of 50° C. or higher and 100° C. or lower after the drying.

18. The adhesion method according to claim 17 , wherein at least one of the adherends is glass.
