Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は、湿度管理を要する美術館、博物館などの建物や、食品工業、薬品工業、ビニールハウスなどで使われる空調機器、衣類乾燥機、食器乾燥機など各種機器において湿度センサとして有用される感湿素子及びその製造方法に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
感湿素子については、感湿応答速度が速く、湿度が上昇するときと、低下するときとで検出値の差が少ないという、いわゆるヒステリシスが小さいという利点から、感湿部に高分子電解質を用いたものが従来より開発されている。高分子電解質は、周囲の雰囲気の湿度に対応して、水分子を吸収する。この水分子により高分子電解質は電離し、吸収した水の量に応じて電気抵抗が低下する。すなわち、この電気抵抗の変化を測定すれば湿度に換算することができる。
【0003】
しかし、この高分子電解質を用いた感湿素子は高湿度領域、特に結露時において、高分子電解質が水に溶解流出し、感湿特性が劣化するという欠点があった。これらの欠点を改良するために、不水溶性であるオルガノポリシロキサン膜を感湿部に用いるものも提案されている(例えば特開平3−72253 号公報、特開平3−252550号公報)。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、これらのものはオルガノポリシロキサン膜の密度が低く、不均一であるため感湿精度が低かったり、あるいは長時間水に接触したときの耐久性が不十分であるという欠点があった。
【0005】
本発明は前記従来技術の問題点を解決するために、感湿精度にすぐれ、かつ長時間水と接触しても特性と耐水性を損なわない感湿素子を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】前記の目的を達成するために本発明の感湿素子は、基板上に感湿膜を具備した感湿素子において、前記感湿膜は前記基板表面に少なくとも−O−Si−O−結合を含む共有結合を介して、高分子電解質からなる感湿分子が固定されて構成されていることを特徴とする。
【0007】
前記構成においては、感湿膜を構成する分子に、−O−Si−O−結合を含む共有結合を介してフッ化アルキル基を有する分子が結合されていることが好ましい。
また前記構成においては、高分子電解質分子が第4級アンモニウム基と水酸基とを有するカチオン系高分子であることが好ましい。
【0008】
次に本発明の感湿素子の第1番目の製造方法は、活性水素を有する基板表面に、ハライド基を複数個含むシラン化合物分子を接触させ、前記基板表面の活性水素と前記シラン化合物分子の一部のハライド基との間で脱ハロゲン化水素反応させて前記基板表面に前記シラン化合物分子を共有結合させ、次に前記シラン化合物分子に活性水素を有する高分子電解質分子を接触させ、前記高分子電解質分子の活性水素と前記シラン化合物分子の残余のハライド基との間で脱ハロゲン化水素反応させて前記シラン化合物分子に前記高分子電解質分子を共有結合させることを特徴とする。
【0009】
次に本発明の感湿素子の第2番目の製造方法は、活性水素を有する高分子電解質分子に、ハライド基を複数個含むシラン化合物分子を接触させ、前記高分子電解質分子の活性水素と前記シラン化合物分子の一部のハライド基との間で脱ハロゲン化水素反応させて前記高分子電解質分子に前記シラン化合物分子を共有結合させ、次に活性水素を有する基板表面に前記シラン化合物分子が結合された高分子電解質分子を接触させ、前記基板表面の活性水素と前記シラン化合物分子の残余のハライド基との間で脱ハロゲン化水素反応させて前記基板表面に前記シラン化合物分子が結合された高分子電解質分子を共有結合させることを特徴とする。
【0010】
前記構成においては高分子電解質分子が、第4級アンモニウム基と水酸基とを有するカチオン系高分子であることが好ましい。
また前記構成においては、活性水素を有する高分子電解質分子にフッ化アルキル基を有するハロゲン化シラン化合物分子を接触させ、前記高分子電解質分子の活性水素と前記シラン化合物分子の一部のハライド基との間で脱ハロゲン化水素反応させて前記高分子電解質分子にフッ化アルキル基を有するシラン化合物分子を共有結合させることもできる。
【0011】
【作用】
前記本発明の構成によれば、感湿素子は、基板表面に−O−Si−O−結合を含む共有結合を介して高分子電解質が固定されて、薄い感湿膜を形成している。すなわち、高分子電解質と基板表面とが2つのシロキサン結合(−O−Si−O−結合)を介して強固に結合しているので、水と接触しても高分子電解質が溶け出すことがなく、素子の感湿特性には何ら変化がない。さらに、感湿膜は薄く均一なので感湿精度が高く、かつ応答速度が速くてヒステリシスが小さい感湿素子となる。
【0012】
また、感湿膜の表面に少なくとも−Si−結合を含む共有結合を介してフッ化アルキル基を有する化学吸着膜が設けられたという好ましい構成によれば、化学吸着膜の表層に存在するフッ化アルキル基の表面エネルギーが低いため感湿膜表面が撥水性になり、水に濡れにくいか、もしくは濡れてもすぐに水をはじくので高湿度領域での感湿精度が高く、結露後の応答性が速くなる。
【0013】
また前記において、高分子電解質分子が第4級アンモニウム基と水酸基とを有するカチオン系高分子であるという好ましい構成によれば、素子の感湿特性を高く保つことができる。
【0014】
次に前記本発明の第1〜2番目の製造方法の構成によれば、本発明の感湿素子を効率よく合理的に製造することができる。
【0015】
【実施例】
以下実施例を用いて本発明をさらに具体的に説明する。
本発明の感湿素子は第1には、活性水素を有する基板表面に、SiCl基を複数個含むシラン化合物を化学吸着させて前記シラン化合物のSiCl基を基材表面に析出させたのち、この基材表面に析出したSiCl基に活性水素を有する高分子電解質を結合させ、基材表面に前記高分子電解質からなる感湿膜を形成させることによって製造される。
【0016】
図1(C)は本発明の一実施例における感湿素子表面の拡大図である。基板11の表面に、−O−Si−O−結合を含む共有結合を介して高分子電解質15を固定して、感湿膜16を形成することにより、耐水性に優れた感湿素子とする。感湿膜16を固定させる基板としては、例えばアルミナ、石英ガラス等のような、その表面にSiCl基と反応させるための活性水素を有している絶縁性の基板であればよい。活性水素の好ましい具体例は、−OH基,−CHO基,−COOH基,>NH基,−NH2基などに含まれる水素である。なお、このように活性水素を有していなかったり、あるいは濃度が低い基板の場合には、表面を酸化処理(例えば酸素プラズマ処理、水蒸気プラズマ処理、コロナ処理、もしくはクロム酸混液処理等)することによって、活性水素を付与することが可能である。
【0017】
この基板の表面に化学吸着させるシラン化合物は、例えばSiCl、SiHCl、SiHCl、Cl−(SiClO)−SiCl(但し、式中nは自然数)、Cl(CH3−m Si−(CH−SiCl(CH3−m (但し、式中mは1〜3の整数、pは自然数)等のようなハライド基(とくにクロロ基が好ましい)を複数個含むものである。なおこのハライド基を複数個含むシラン化合物の中でも、テトラクロロシラン(SiCl)は分子量が小さく反応性が高いため好ましい。
【0018】
これらのシラン化合物を非水系の有機溶媒に溶解させ、その溶液中に基板を浸漬させると、シラン化合物のSiCl基が基板表面の水酸基と脱塩化水素反応してシロキサン結合を生成する。次いで、有機溶媒で洗浄して基板上に残る未反応のシラン化合物を除去すると、基板の表面にはSiCl基を含んだシラン化合物の単分子膜層が形成される。
【0019】
なお、非水系溶媒としては、基板を侵さず、かつSiCl基と反応する活性水素を持たない有機溶媒であればよい。例えば1,1−ジクロロ,1−フルオロエタン、1,1−ジクロロ−2,2,2−トリフルオロエタン等のフッ素系溶媒、例えばオクタン、ヘキサデカン、シクロヘキサン等の炭化水素系溶媒、例えばジブチルエーテル、ジベンジルエーテル等のエーテル系溶媒、例えば酢酸エチル、酢酸イソプロピル、酢酸アミル等のエステル系溶媒の何れかが好ましい。
【0020】
上記のようにしてSiCl基を析出させた基板の表面に、活性水素基を有する高分子電解質を接触させると、SiCl基と活性水素基とで脱塩酸反応を生じ、高分子電解質が化学結合で基板に感湿膜として固定されて、本発明の感湿素子が製造される。
【0021】
活性水素基を有する高分子電解質としては、例えば(化1)、(化2)に示すような第4級アンモニウム基及び水酸基を有するカチオン系高分子、例えば(化3)に示す構造のようなスルフォン酸基またはその塩を有する高分子電解質、例えば(化4)に示す構造のようなカルボキシル基またはその塩を有する高分子電解質、例えばキトサン等の水酸基を有する高分子電解質等が用いられる。

【0026】
なお、これらの活性水素基を有する高分子電解質の中でも、第4級アンモニウム基及び水酸基を有するカチオン系高分子を用いると、その水酸基がSiCl基と反応しやすく高密度な感湿膜を得ることができ、かつ第4級アンモニウム基の水の収着による電気抵抗変化が精度良く検出できるので好ましい。
【0027】
なお、前記高分子電解質及び前記高分子は液体状ならばそのまま用いても、あるいは非水系溶媒に溶解させて用いてもよく、固体状ならば非水系溶媒に溶解させて使用する。
【0028】
なお、本発明の感湿素子の第1の製造方法においては、前記のシラン化合物層を形成させる工程と感湿膜を形成させる工程を交互に繰り返しおこなってもよく、その場合にはシラン化合物層と感湿膜の累積膜が形成されるため、より優れた耐水性と感湿精度を得ることができる。
【0029】
本発明の感湿素子は第2には、活性水素を有する高分子電解質にSiCl基を複数個含むシラン化合物を反応させて前記高分子電解質にSiCl基を付与したのち、活性水素を有する基板表面に前記SiCl基を付与した高分子電解質を結合させ、基材表面に前記高分子電解質からなる感湿膜を形成させることによって製造される。
【0030】
SiCl基を複数個含むシラン化合物を非水系の有機溶媒に溶解させ、その溶液に水酸基等の活性水素を有する高分子電解質を混入すると、シラン化合物のSiCl基が高分子電解質の活性水素と反応してシロキサン結合を生成し、高分子電解質にはSiCl基を含んだシラン化合物が付与される。このようにしてSiCl基を付与した高分子電解質を、活性水素基を有する基板の表面に接触させると、SiCl基と活性水素基とで脱塩酸反応を生じ、高分子電解質が化学結合で基板に感湿膜として固定されて、本発明の感湿素子が製造される。
【0031】
本発明の感湿素子は第3には、前記第1及び第2の製造方法によって形成された感湿膜の表面に、フッ化アルキル基を含むクロロシラン系界面活性剤を反応させて前記感湿膜の表面にフッ化アルキル基を含む化学吸着膜を形成させることによって製造される。
(1)フッ化アルキル基を有するクロロシラン系界面活性剤としては、例えば下記のトリクロロシラン系化合物がある。
CF(CF(CHSiCl
CF(CFSi(CH(CH15SiCl
CF(CHSi(CH(CH15SiCl
CF(CF(CHSi(CH(CHSiCl
CF(CF(CHSi(CH(CHSiCl
CFCOO(CH15SiCl
CF(CF(CHSiCl
(2)モノ−,またはジクロロシラン系化合物またはその低級アルキル基置換化合物としては例えば下記のものがある。
CF(CF(CHSiCl(CH3−n
CF(CF(CHSiCl(C3−n
CFCHO(CH15SiCl(C3−n
CF(CHSi(CH(CH15SiCl(CH3−n
CF(CF(CHSi(CH(CHSiCl(C3−n
CF(CF(CHSi(CH(CHSiCl(CH3−n
CFCOO(CH15SiCl(CH3−n
CF(CF(CHSiCl(CH3−n
(但し前記式中のnは何れも1又は2)
これらの中でも特にトリクロロシラン系界面活性剤の親水性基と結合したクロロシリル結合以外のクロロシリル結合が、隣合うクロロシラン基とシロキサン結合で分子間結合を形成するため、より強固な化学吸着膜となり好ましい。また、CF(CF(CHSiCl(但し、式中のnは整数であり、1〜25程度が最も扱いやすい)が、溶剤溶解性、化学吸着性と溌水性との釣合が取れているため好ましい。
【0032】
これらのクロロシラン系界面活性剤を非水系の有機溶媒に溶解させ、その溶液中に感湿膜を形成させた基板を浸漬させると、クロロシラン系界面活性剤のSiCl基と感湿膜表面の活性水素基とが脱塩化水素反応して−Si−結合を生成する。次いで、有機溶媒で洗浄して感湿膜上に残る未反応のクロロシラン系界面活性剤を除去すると、感湿膜の表面にはフッ化アルキル基を有する化学吸着膜が形成される。
【0033】
次に、具体的実施例を用いて本発明を説明する。
(実施例1)

実施例1において製造した感湿素子(図2(a) )を、さらにテトラクロロシランの1wt%シクロヘキサン溶液に30分間浸漬すると、基板21に固定された感湿膜22に含まれる水酸基23とテトラクロロシランのSiCl基とが脱塩酸反応を生じて、シラン化合物の単分子膜層24が形成され、表層にSiCl基25が析出した(図2(b) )。
【0039】
次に、この基板を(化6)で示されるポリ−2−ヒドロキシ−3−メタクリルオキシプロピルトリメチルアンモニウムクロライドに1時間浸漬すると、再び(化7)で示される結合が生成した。これにより2層の高分子電解質26からなる感湿膜27が基板21の表面に形成された(図2(c) )。
【0040】
(実施例3)
テトラクロロシラン(SiCl)1重量部と下記式(化8)の高分子電解質99重量部を混合すると、テトラクロロシランのSiCl基の何れかと下記式(化8)の高分子電解質に含まれる水酸基とが脱塩化水素反応して、下記式(化9)のように結合し、高分子電解質にSiCl基が付与された。

【0046】
【化11】
Figure 0003557245
【0047】
(実施例5)
前記実施例で得られた感湿素子の湿度特性を調べるため、以下の実験を行なった。まず、初期特性として温度25℃において、電極間に1.0V、1kHzの交流電圧を印加し、相対湿度20%〜90%の範囲でインピーダンスの変化を求めた。
【0048】
次に、感湿素子の耐水性を調べるために、25℃の蒸留水中に1時間浸漬した後に上記と同様の試験を行なった。
以上の2つの実験結果を図5、図6、図7及び図8に示す。図5は実施例1の感湿素子の特性、図6は実施例2の感湿素子の特性、図7は実施例3の感湿素子の特性、図8は実施例4の感湿素子の特性である。
【0049】
図5〜8から明らかな通り、本実施例1〜4の感湿素子はいずれも相対湿度に対応したインピーダンス変化を示し、優れた感湿特性を有していることが確認できた。また、蒸留水浸漬後においても、その感湿特性を保持しており、耐水性に優れていた。
【0050】
さらに、実施例4の感湿素子では感湿膜表面に設けられたフッ化アルキル基を有する化学吸着膜が撥水性を示すため、蒸留水浸漬後も感湿膜表面に水が付着せず、図8に示す感湿特性をすぐに測定することができた。このことから、結露後や高湿度領域での応答速度が速くなることが確認できた。
【0051】
【発明の効果】
以上のように、本発明の感湿素子は、基板表面に少なくとも−O−Si−O−結合を含む共有結合を介して高分子電解質からなる感湿膜が固定されているので、感湿膜は水に溶け出さず、耐水性に優れたものになる。さらに、感湿膜は薄く均一なので感湿精度が高く、かつ応答速度が速くてヒステリシスが小さい感湿素子が得られる。

【0052】
さらに、感湿膜の表面にフッ化アルキル基を有する化学吸着膜を設けることによって、感湿膜表面が撥水性になるので、水が付着しにくく、結露後の応答速度が速い感湿素子を得ることができる。
【0053】
また、本発明の感湿素子の第1番目の製造方法は、活性水素を有する基板表面にクロロシリル基を複数個含むシラン化合物を化学吸着させて基板表面にクロロシリル基を析出させ、このクロロシリル基に活性水素を有する高分子電解質を反応させ感湿膜を形成させるものである。
【0054】
また本発明の感湿素子の第2番目の製造方法は、活性水素を有する高分子電解質にクロロシリル基を複数個含むシラン化合物を作用させてクロロシリル基を付与したのち、この高分子電解質を活性水素を有する基板表面に化学吸着させて感湿膜を形成させるものである。これらによれば感湿特性を有する高分子電解質を変性させずに目的とする感湿素子を容易に得ることができる。
【0055】
また、感湿膜表面にフッ化アルキル基を有するクロロシラン系界面活性剤を反応させて、前記感湿膜表面にフッ化アルキル基を有する化学吸着膜を設けるものである。これによれば、感湿特性に影響を及ぼさずに感湿膜表面に高い撥水性を付与することができる。

[Industrial applications]
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention provides a humidity sensor that is useful as a humidity sensor in various devices such as air conditioners, clothes dryers, dish dryers used in buildings such as art museums and museums that require humidity management, food industries, pharmaceutical industries, and greenhouses. The present invention relates to an element and a method for manufacturing the same.
[0002]
[Prior art]
The moisture sensitive element uses a polymer electrolyte for the moisture sensitive part because of its advantage that the response speed is fast and the difference in detection value between when the humidity rises and when the humidity decreases is small, that is, so-called hysteresis is small. What has been developed has been developed. The polymer electrolyte absorbs water molecules in response to the humidity of the surrounding atmosphere. The polymer molecules are ionized by the water molecules, and the electric resistance decreases according to the amount of absorbed water. That is, if the change in the electric resistance is measured, it can be converted into humidity.
[0003]
However, the moisture-sensitive element using the polymer electrolyte has a drawback that the polymer electrolyte dissolves and flows out into water in a high humidity region, particularly at the time of dew condensation, and the moisture-sensitive property is deteriorated. In order to improve these drawbacks, it has been proposed to use a water-insoluble organopolysiloxane film for the moisture-sensitive part (for example, JP-A-3-72253 and JP-A-3-252550).
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, these have a drawback that the density of the organopolysiloxane film is low and non-uniform, so that the moisture sensitivity is low, or the durability when exposed to water for a long time is insufficient.
[0005]
An object of the present invention is to provide a moisture-sensitive element which is excellent in moisture-sensing accuracy and which does not impair characteristics and water resistance even if it is in contact with water for a long time, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art.
[0006]
Humidity sensitive element of the present invention to [Means for Solving the Problems] To achieve the above object, in a moisture sensitive element provided with the humidity sensitive film on a substrate, said moisture sensitive film is at least on the substrate surface - It is characterized in that moisture-sensitive molecules composed of a polymer electrolyte are fixed via covalent bonds including O-Si-O- bonds.
[0007]
In the above configuration, it is preferable that a molecule having an alkyl fluoride group is bonded to a molecule constituting the moisture-sensitive film via a covalent bond including an -O-Si-O- bond.
Further, in the above configuration, the polymer electrolyte molecule is preferably a cationic polymer having a quaternary ammonium group and a hydroxyl group.

Next, a second method for producing a moisture-sensitive element of the present invention comprises contacting a silane compound molecule having a plurality of halide groups with a polymer electrolyte molecule having active hydrogen, and contacting the active hydrogen of the polymer electrolyte molecule with the active hydrogen. A dehydrohalogenation reaction is caused between some halide groups of the silane compound molecule to covalently bond the silane compound molecule to the polymer electrolyte molecule, and then the silane compound molecule is bonded to the substrate surface having active hydrogen.

[Action]
According to the configuration of the present invention, in the moisture-sensitive element, the polymer electrolyte is fixed to the substrate surface via the covalent bond including the -O-Si-O- bond to form a thin moisture - sensitive film. That is, since the polymer electrolyte and the substrate surface are firmly bonded via two siloxane bonds (-O-Si-O- bonds), the polymer electrolyte does not dissolve even when contacted with water. There is no change in the humidity sensitivity of the device. Further, since the moisture-sensitive film is thin and uniform, the humidity-sensitive element has high humidity sensitivity, high response speed and small hysteresis.
[0012]
Further, according to a preferred configuration in which a chemisorption film having an alkyl fluoride group is provided on the surface of the moisture-sensitive film via a covalent bond containing at least a -Si- bond, the fluorine existing on the surface of the chemisorption film is provided. Due to the low surface energy of the alkyl group, the surface of the moisture-sensitive film becomes water-repellent, and it is difficult to get wet with water, or it repels water even if it gets wet, so it has high humidity sensitivity in high humidity areas and responsiveness after condensation. Is faster.
[0013]
Further, in the above, according to the preferred configuration in which the polymer electrolyte molecule is a cationic polymer having a quaternary ammonium group and a hydroxyl group, it is possible to keep the humidity sensitivity of the device high.
[0014]
Next, according to the first and second manufacturing methods of the present invention, the moisture-sensitive element of the present invention can be efficiently and rationally manufactured.
[0015]
【Example】
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to examples.
First, the moisture-sensitive element of the present invention chemically adsorbs a silane compound containing a plurality of SiCl groups on the surface of a substrate having active hydrogen to precipitate the SiCl groups of the silane compound on the surface of the base material. It is manufactured by bonding a polymer electrolyte having active hydrogen to SiCl groups precipitated on the surface of a base material to form a moisture-sensitive film made of the polymer electrolyte on the base material surface.
[0016]
FIG. 1C is an enlarged view of the surface of the moisture-sensitive element according to one embodiment of the present invention. By fixing the polymer electrolyte 15 to the surface of the substrate 11 via a covalent bond including an -O-Si-O- bond to form a moisture-sensitive film 16, a moisture-sensitive element having excellent water resistance is obtained. . The substrate on which the moisture-sensitive film 16 is fixed may be an insulating substrate such as alumina, quartz glass or the like having active hydrogen on its surface to react with SiCl groups. Preferred specific examples of the active hydrogen include hydrogen contained in a —OH group, a —CHO group, a —COOH group, a> NH group, a —NH 2 group, and the like. If the substrate does not have active hydrogen or has a low concentration, the surface should be oxidized (for example, oxygen plasma treatment, water vapor plasma treatment, corona treatment, or chromic acid mixed liquid treatment). Can provide active hydrogen.
[0017]
The silane compound to be chemically adsorbed on the surface of the substrate is, for example, SiCl 4 , SiHCl 3 , SiH 2 Cl 2 , Cl— (SiCl 2 O) n —SiCl 3 (where n is a natural number) and Cl m (CH 3 ) 3-m Si- (CH 2 ) p -SiCl m (CH 3 ) 3-m (where m is an integer of 1 to 3, p is a natural number) and the like (particularly a chloro group is preferable). ). Among these silane compounds containing a plurality of halide groups, tetrachlorosilane (SiCl 4 ) is preferable because of its low molecular weight and high reactivity.
[0018]
When these silane compounds are dissolved in a non-aqueous organic solvent and the substrate is immersed in the solution, SiCl groups of the silane compounds react with hydroxyl groups on the substrate surface by dehydrochlorination to form siloxane bonds . Next, when the unreacted silane compound remaining on the substrate is removed by washing with an organic solvent, a monomolecular film layer of the silane compound containing a SiCl group is formed on the surface of the substrate.
[0019]
The non-aqueous solvent may be any organic solvent that does not attack the substrate and has no active hydrogen that reacts with the SiCl group. For example, fluorinated solvents such as 1,1-dichloro, 1-fluoroethane, and 1,1-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane, for example, hydrocarbon solvents such as octane, hexadecane and cyclohexane, for example, dibutyl ether; Preferred are ether solvents such as dibenzyl ether and ester solvents such as ethyl acetate, isopropyl acetate and amyl acetate.
[0020]
When a polymer electrolyte having an active hydrogen group is brought into contact with the surface of the substrate on which the SiCl group is precipitated as described above, a dehydrochlorination reaction occurs between the SiCl group and the active hydrogen group, and the polymer electrolyte is chemically bonded. The moisture-sensitive element of the present invention is manufactured by being fixed to the substrate as a moisture-sensitive film.
[0021]
As the polymer electrolyte having an active hydrogen group, for example, a cationic polymer having a quaternary ammonium group and a hydroxyl group as shown in (Chemical Formula 1) and (Chemical Formula 2), such as a structure as shown in (Chemical Formula 3) A polymer electrolyte having a sulfonic acid group or a salt thereof, for example, a polymer electrolyte having a carboxyl group or a salt thereof as shown in the chemical formula (4), for example, a polymer electrolyte having a hydroxyl group such as chitosan, or the like is used.

[0026]
In addition, when a cationic polymer having a quaternary ammonium group and a hydroxyl group is used among these polymer electrolytes having an active hydrogen group, the hydroxyl group easily reacts with the SiCl group to obtain a high-density moisture-sensitive film. This is preferable because the change in electric resistance due to sorption of water of the quaternary ammonium group can be detected with high accuracy.
[0027]
The polymer electrolyte and the polymer may be used as such if they are in a liquid state, or may be used after being dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent. If they are in a solid state, they may be used after being dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent.
[0028]
In the first method for producing a moisture-sensitive element of the present invention, the step of forming the silane compound layer and the step of forming the moisture-sensitive film may be alternately repeated. Therefore, a more excellent water resistance and humidity sensitivity can be obtained.
[0029]
Secondly, the moisture-sensitive element of the present invention is configured such that a polymer electrolyte having active hydrogen is reacted with a silane compound having a plurality of SiCl groups to give the polymer electrolyte a SiCl group, and then the surface of the substrate having active hydrogen is reacted. The polymer electrolyte is provided by bonding the polymer electrolyte to which the SiCl group has been added to form a moisture-sensitive film made of the polymer electrolyte on the surface of the base material.
[0030]
When a silane compound containing a plurality of SiCl groups is dissolved in a non-aqueous organic solvent and a polymer electrolyte having active hydrogen such as a hydroxyl group is mixed into the solution, the SiCl groups of the silane compound react with the active hydrogen of the polymer electrolyte. As a result, a siloxane compound containing SiCl groups is given to the polymer electrolyte. When the polymer electrolyte thus provided with the SiCl group is brought into contact with the surface of the substrate having an active hydrogen group, a dehydrochlorination reaction occurs between the SiCl group and the active hydrogen group, and the polymer electrolyte is chemically bonded to the substrate. The moisture sensitive element of the present invention is manufactured by being fixed as a moisture sensitive film.
[0031]
Thirdly, the moisture-sensitive element of the present invention is obtained by reacting the surface of the moisture-sensitive film formed by the first and second manufacturing methods with a chlorosilane-based surfactant containing an alkyl fluoride group. It is manufactured by forming a chemisorption film containing an alkyl fluoride group on the surface of the film.
(1) Examples of the chlorosilane-based surfactant having a fluorinated alkyl group include the following trichlorosilane-based compounds.
CF 3 (CF 2 ) 7 (CH 2 ) 2 SiCl 3 ,
CF 3 (CF 2 ) 2 Si (CH 3 ) 2 (CH 2 ) 15 SiCl 3 ,

CF 3 (CF 2 ) 7 (CH 2 ) 2 Si (CH 3 ) 2 (CH 2 ) 9 SiCl 3 ,
CF 3 COO (CH 2 ) 15 SiCl 3 ,
CF 3 (CF 2 ) 5 (CH 2 ) 2 SiCl 3 ,
(2) Examples of the mono- or dichlorosilane-based compound or its lower alkyl group-substituted compound include the following.
CF 3 (CF 2 ) 7 (CH 2 ) 2 SiCl n (CH 3 ) 3-n ,
CF 3 (CF 2 ) 7 (CH 2 ) 2 SiCl n (C 2 H 5 ) 3-n ,
CF 3 CH 2 O (CH 2 ) 15 SiCl n (C 2 H 5) 3-n,
CF 3 (CH 2) 2 Si (CH 3) 2 (CH 2) 15 SiCl n (CH 3) 3-n,
CF 3 (CF 2) 3 ( CH 2) 2 Si (CH 3) 2 (CH 2) 9 SiCl n (C 2 H 5) 3-n,
CF 3 (CF 2) 7 ( CH 2) 2 Si (CH 3) 2 (CH 2) 9 SiCl n (CH 3) 3-n,
CF 3 COO (CH 2 ) 15 SiCl n (CH 3 ) 3-n ,
CF 3 (CF 2 ) 5 (CH 2 ) 2 SiCl n (CH 3 ) 3-n ,
(However, n in the above formula is 1 or 2)
Of these, chlorosilyl bonds other than the chlorosilyl bond bonded to the hydrophilic group of the trichlorosilane-based surfactant form intermolecular bonds between adjacent chlorosilane groups and siloxane bonds, so that a stronger chemical adsorption film is preferable. In addition, CF 3 (CF 2 ) n (CH 2 ) 2 SiCl 3 (where n is an integer and about 1 to 25 is the easiest to handle), but the solvent solubility, chemical adsorption and water repellency Is preferable because the balance of
[0032]
When these chlorosilane-based surfactants are dissolved in a non-aqueous organic solvent and the substrate on which the moisture-sensitive film is formed is immersed in the solution, the SiCl groups of the chlorosilane-based surfactant and the active hydrogen on the surface of the moisture-sensitive film The group and the group undergo a dehydrochlorination reaction to form a -Si- bond. Next, when the unreacted chlorosilane-based surfactant remaining on the moisture-sensitive film is removed by washing with an organic solvent, a chemically adsorbed film having an alkyl fluoride group is formed on the surface of the moisture-sensitive film.
[0033]
