Abstract

An antistatic laminate and a laminate material equipped with the laminate are provided, wherein the laminate includes a base material and an antistatic layer which comprises a cellulose fiber having a carboxyl group, and the laminate can prevent deterioration of antistatic properties under a low humidity environment, while high transparency is maintained due to use of a material wherein natural resources are effectively used.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An antistatic laminate which includes laminated plural layers and is used to prevent charging, the laminate comprising:
a base material, and
an antistatic layer which is laminated on at least one surface side of the base material, the antistatic layer including a cellulose fiber having a carboxyl group, wherein a content of the carboxyl group per 1 g of the cellulose fiber is in a range of 0.1 mmol or more and 5 mmol or less, and at least a part of the carboxyl group of the cellulose fiber is a carboxyl acid salt.

2. The antistatic laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the cellulose fiber is a cellulose fiber to which a carboxyl group is introduced by an acid reaction, and the content of the carboxyl group per 1 g of the cellulose fiber is in a range of 0.1 mmol or more and 5 mmol or less.

3. The antistatic laminate according to claim 2 , wherein at least a part of the carboxyl group is a carboxyl acid salt.

4. The antistatic laminate according to claim 3 , wherein a fiber width of the cellulose fiber is 2 nm or more and 50 nm or less, and a length of the cellulose fiber is 1 μm or more.

5. The antistatic laminate according to claim 4 , wherein the cellulose fiber is a crystalline cellulose, and has a crystalline structure of cellulose type-I.

6. The antistatic laminate according to claim 5 , wherein the antistatic layer further includes a water absorbent.

7. The antistatic laminate according to claim 6 , wherein a weight ratio of the cellulose fiber and the water absorbent (cellulose fiber/water absorbent) is in a range of (5/95) or more and (95/5) or less.

8. The antistatic laminate according to claim 7 , wherein the water absorbent is an inorganic lamellar compound.

9. The antistatic laminate according to claim 8 , wherein a weight ratio of the cellulose fiber and the inorganic lamellar compound (cellulose fiber/inorganic lamellar compound) which are included in the antistatic layer is in a range of (20/80) or more and (70/30) or less.

10. The antistatic laminate according to claim 9 , wherein the thickness of the antistatic layer is 100 nm or more.

11. The antistatic laminate according to claim 9 , wherein electrical resistance at the surface of the antistatic laminate is 1.0×1012Ω/□ or less under an environment of 25° C. and 20% RH.

12. The antistatic laminate according to claim 9 , wherein a half-life of surface charge at the surface of the antistatic laminate is 10 seconds or less under an environment of 25° C. and 20% RH.

13. The antistatic laminate according to claim 9 , wherein the base material is made from plastic, and haze of the antistatic laminate is in a range of 0.1% or more and 10% or less.

14. The antistatic laminate according to claim 9 , wherein the base material is made from paper.

15. A laminate material which includes the antistatic laminate according to claim 9 .

16. The antistatic laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the antistatic layer further includes a water absorbent which is at least one selected from the group consisting of:
synthetic zeolite, an inorganic laminar compound, activated carbon, polyacrylate, magnesium sulfate, calcium oxide and aluminium oxide.

17. The antistatic laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the antistatic layer further includes an inorganic laminar compound which is at least one selected from the group consisting of: a kaolinite group, an antigorite group, a smectite group, a vermiculite group and a mica group.

18. The antistatic laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the antistatic layer further includes an inorganic laminar compound which is at least one selected from the group consisting of: kaolinite, dickite, nacrite, halloysite, antigorite, chrysotile, pyrophyllite, montmorillonite, hectorite, tetrasilicic mica, sodium teniolite, white mica, margarite, talc, vermiculite, brown mica, xanthophyllite and chlorite.

19. The antistatic laminate according to claim 1 , wherein
the antistatic laminate includes, between the base material and the antistatic layer, at least one selected from the group consisting of an anchor coat layer, a deposition layer, an intermediate film layer, a gas barrier layer, a hard coat layer, a printing layer, an undercoat layer, a filling layer and an optical adjustment layer.

20. The antistatic laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the carboxyl acid salt includes a cation which is used as a counter ion of the carboxyl group, and the cation is at least one selected from the group consisting of: an alkali metal ion, an alkaline earth metal ion, an ammonium ion and an alkyl ammonium ion.

21. The antistatic laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the base material and the antistatic layer directly contact with each other.

22. The antistatic laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the carboxyl group per 1 g of the cellulose fiber is in a range of 0.5 mmol or more and 3 mmol or less.
