Abstract

To provide an antifouling article having an antifouling layer formed on the surface of an organic material using a fluorinated compound, wherein the antifouling article is excellent in antifouling properties and has durability such as abrasion resistance with respect to the antifouling properties.
An antifouling article comprising:
a substrate, at least a portion of the surface thereof being made of an organic material; a primer layer disposed on the surface made of the organic material; and an antifouling layer disposed on the primer layer; wherein: the primer layer is a layer formed by using a first silane compound which has a hydrolyzable silyl group, and a reactive organic group (a reactive organic group (A)) that is a group having a linking group and a reactive group, or a reactive group other than a hydrolyzable group; the absolute value of the difference between the SP value of the organic material and the SP value of the reactive organic group is from 0 to 3.0 (J/cm 3 ) 1/2 ; and the antifouling layer is a layer formed by using a second silane compound having a perfluoropolyether group and a hydrolyzable silyl group.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . An antifouling article comprising:
a substrate, at least a portion of the surface thereof being made of an organic material; a primer layer disposed on the surface made of the organic material; and an antifouling layer disposed on the primer layer; wherein: the primer layer is a layer formed by using a first silane compound which has a hydrolyzable silyl group and a reactive organic group; the reactive organic group is a group having a linking group and a reactive group, or a reactive group other than a hydrolyzable group; the absolute value of the difference between the SP value of the organic material and the SP value of the reactive organic group is from 0 to 3.0 (J/cm 3 ) 1/2 ; and the antifouling layer is a layer formed by using a second silane compound having a perfluoropolyether group and a hydrolyzable silyl group.

2 . The antifouling article according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the primer layer is from 5 to 100 nm.

3 . The antifouling article according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the antifouling layer is from 10 to 100 nm.

4 . The antifouling article according to claim 1 , wherein the reactive organic group is a group having at least one reactive group selected from a vinyl group, an epoxy group, a (meth)acryloxy group, an amino group, an isocyanate group, and a mercapto group.

5 . The antifouling article according to claim 1 , wherein the first silane compound is at least one member selected from 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, and 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane.

6 . The antifouling article according to claim 1 , wherein the second silane compound is a silane compound which has a poly(oxyperfluoroalkylene) chain represented by —(C a F 2a O) b — (wherein a is an integer of from 1 to 6, b is an integer of at least 2, and it may have at least two —C a F 2a O— units different in the number of carbon atoms), and which has a hydrolyzable silyl group via a linking group at at least one terminal of the poly(oxyperfluoroalkylene) chain.

7 . The antifouling article according to claim 1 , wherein the organic material contains at least one member selected from a resin and an elastomer.

8 . A method for producing an antifouling article comprising:
a substrate, at least a portion of the surface thereof being made of an organic material; a primer layer disposed on the surface made of the organic material; and an antifouling layer disposed on the primer layer; wherein the method comprises: applying, onto the surface made of the organic material, a composition for primer layer comprising a first silane compound and a first solvent, wherein the first silane compound has a hydrolyzable silyl group and a reactive organic group; the reactive organic group is a group having a linking group and a reactive group, or a reactive group other than a hydrolyzable group; and the absolute value of the difference between the SP value of the organic material and the SP value of the reactive organic group is from 0 to 3.0 (J/cm 3 ) 1/2 ; and then reacting the first silane compound to obtain the primer layer; and depositing, on the primer layer, a composition for antifouling layer comprising a second silane compound having a perfluoropolyether group and a hydrolyzable silyl group; and then reacting the second silane compound to obtain the antifouling layer.

9 . The production method according to claim 8 , wherein the absolute value of the difference between the SP value in the case where the hydrolyzable silyl group of the first silane compound is a silanol group and the SP value of the first solvent is from 0 to 12.0 (J/cm 3 ) 1/2 .

10 . The production method according to claim 8 , wherein the absolute value of the difference between the SP value of the first solvent and the SP value of the organic material is from 0 to 5.0 (J/cm 3 ) 1/2 .

11 . The production method according to claim 8 , wherein the composition for primer layer is applied so that the applied amount of the first silane compound be from 1.0 to 4.0 mg/m 2 .

12 . The production method according to claim 8 , wherein the first silane compound is contained in a proportion of from 0.01 to 5.0 mass % to the total amount of the composition for primer layer.

13 . The production method according to claim 8 , wherein the reactive organic group is a group having at least one reactive group selected from a vinyl group, an epoxy group, a (meth)acryloxy group, an amino group, an isocyanate group, and a mercapto group.

14 . The production method according to claim 8 , wherein the first silane compound is at least one member selected from 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane and 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane.

15 . The production method according to claim 8 , wherein the second silane compound is a silane compound which has a poly(oxyperfluoroalkylene) chain represented by —(C a F 2a O) b — (wherein a is an integer of from 1 to 6, b is an integer of at least 2, and it may have at least two —C a F 2a O— units different in the number of carbon atoms), and which has a hydrolyzable silyl group via a linking group at at least one terminal of the poly(oxyperfluoroalkylene) chain.
