Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A decorative sheet includes a primary film layer and a surface protection layer, the surface protection layer has a gloss level of 15 or less, the surface protection layer includes on a surface thereof a ridged portion protruding in a ridged pattern and thus has an irregular shape formed on the surface, the surface protection layer contains an ionizing radiation-curable resin as a main material, the ionizing radiation-curable resin contains as a main component a trifunctional acrylic resin having a repeating structure, the repeating structure is any of an ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, or & ε-caprolactone structure, the number of repetitions of the repeating structure is 3 or more, and vinyl groups contained in the ionizing radiation-curable resin is 20% or less relative to carbonyl groups contained in the ionizing radiation-curable resin.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A decorative sheet comprising: a primary film layer; and a surface protection layer disposed on one surface of the primary film layer, wherein the surface protection layer has a gloss level of 15 or less, the surface protection layer includes on a surface thereof a ridged portion protruding in a ridged pattern and thus has an irregular shape formed on the surface, the surface protection layer contains an ionizing radiation-curable resin as a main material, the ionizing radiation-curable resin contains as a main component a trifunctional acrylic resin having a repeating structure, the repeating structure is any of an ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, or ε-caprolactone structure, the number of repetitions of the repeating structure is 3 or more, and vinyl groups contained in the ionizing radiation-curable resin are 20% or less relative to carbonyl groups contained in the ionizing radiation-curable resin. 2 . The decorative sheet of claim 1 , wherein the irregular shape of the surface protection layer has a ratio RSm/Ra in a range of 10 or more and 300 or less. 3 . The decorative sheet of claim 1 , wherein the irregular shape of the surface protection layer has a ratio RSm/Ra in a range of 50 or more and 300 or less. 4 . The decorative sheet of claim 1 , wherein the irregular shape of the surface protection layer has a ratio RSm/Ra in a range of 100 or more and 300 or less. 5 . The decorative sheet of claim 1 , wherein the surface protection layer has a thickness in a range of 2 μm or more and 20 μm or less. 6 . The decorative sheet of claim 1 , wherein the surface protection layer includes particles having an average particle size of 10 μm or less. 7 . The decorative sheet of claim 6 , wherein an addition amount of the particles is in a range of 0.5 parts by mass or more and 10 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the ionizing radiation-curable resin. 8 . A method for producing the decorative sheet of claim 1 , the method comprising the steps of: irradiating a surface of an applied ionizing radiation-curable resin with light having a wavelength of 200 nm or less and then irradiating the surface with ionizing radiation or with UV light having a wavelength greater than the light having a wavelength of 200 nm or less to form the surface protection layer including a ridged portion protruding in a ridged pattern. 9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the light having a wavelength of 200 nm or less is light having a wavelength of 172 nm.
