Definitions

  • the present invention relates to photocurable resin compositions having a low chlorine content.
  • the present invention relates to a photocurable resin compositions suitable for use with information disks, including in particular, disks having multiple elements comprising information (or the ability to receive and retain information) , preferably, this will include optical disks ⁇ i . e . , those wherein the information, preferably digital information, is recorded and/or retrieved using optics) for example, digital video disks or digital versatile disks, commonly referred to as a DVD's.
  • Recent progress of information technologies including computer devices, computer software, and communication technologies has allowed a high speed conveyance of mass information.
  • recording media which can record much more information at high density have been desired and the development of such recording media is ongoing.
  • An example of such high-density recording media is a DVD which has been developed as a recording media for wide use in the next generation.
  • the DVD differs from conventional CDs (compact disks) in that the DVD is manufactured by adhering two sheets of disks. Therefore, an adhesive for adhering the two sheets of disks is required and use of hot -melt, heat -curable, anaerobic curable, or similar adhesives has been attempted.
  • hot-melt adhesives have insufficient heat stability and weatherability. Because these adhesives soften at a high temperature, the decreased adhesive strength causes the adhered disks to be separated and deformed. In addition, since transparency of the adhesive is insufficient, it is difficult to use these adhesives for the DVD comprising two recording films of which one is translucent .
  • a problem with heat-curable adhesives is that heat during curing causes the substrate for forming a disk to deform and the curing time is long. On the other hand, anaerobic curable adhesives require a certain period of time for curing, thereby resulting in reduced productivity.
  • UV curable adhesives comprising a urethane acrylate as a major component have been disclosed in Japanese Patent Applications Laid-open No. 142545/1986 and No.
  • optical disks manufactured using these conventional photocurable adhesives exhibit only insufficient moisture resistance and heat resistance. Information recorded in such disks may be lost over time under high temperature and high humidity conditions .
  • the present invention provides a photocurable resin composition useful as an adhesive for fabricating information disks exhibiting superior heat resistance and moisture resistance.
  • the present inventors have undertaken extensive studies and found that a photocurable resin composition with a reduced chlorine content, when used as an adhesive for information disks, induces almost no deterioration of metallic films on substrate surfaces for optical disks and can produce information recording disks with excellent moisture resistance and heat resistance.

Description

PHOTOCURABLE RESIN COMPOSITION WITH A LOW CHLORTNE CONTENT
Field Q£ the invention
The present invention relates to photocurable resin compositions having a low chlorine content. In particular, the present invention relates to a photocurable resin compositions suitable for use with information disks, including in particular, disks having multiple elements comprising information (or the ability to receive and retain information) , preferably, this will include optical disks { i . e . , those wherein the information, preferably digital information, is recorded and/or retrieved using optics) for example, digital video disks or digital versatile disks, commonly referred to as a DVD's.
Background of the Invention
Recent progress of information technologies including computer devices, computer software, and communication technologies has allowed a high speed conveyance of mass information. Along with this advancement, recording media which can record much more information at high density have been desired and the development of such recording media is ongoing. An example of such high-density recording media is a DVD which has been developed as a recording media for wide use in the next generation. The DVD differs from conventional CDs (compact disks) in that the DVD is manufactured by adhering two sheets of disks. Therefore, an adhesive for adhering the two sheets of disks is required and use of hot -melt, heat -curable, anaerobic curable, or similar adhesives has been attempted.
However, hot-melt adhesives have insufficient heat stability and weatherability. Because these adhesives soften at a high temperature, the decreased adhesive strength causes the adhered disks to be separated and deformed. In addition, since transparency of the adhesive is insufficient, it is difficult to use these adhesives for the DVD comprising two recording films of which one is translucent . A problem with heat-curable adhesives is that heat during curing causes the substrate for forming a disk to deform and the curing time is long. On the other hand, anaerobic curable adhesives require a certain period of time for curing, thereby resulting in reduced productivity.
Photocurable adhesives have been proposed to solve these problems. For example, UV curable adhesives comprising a urethane acrylate as a major component have been disclosed in Japanese Patent Applications Laid-open No. 142545/1986 and No.
89462/1994. However, optical disks manufactured using these conventional photocurable adhesives exhibit only insufficient moisture resistance and heat resistance. Information recorded in such disks may be lost over time under high temperature and high humidity conditions .
Summary of the Invention
The present invention provides a photocurable resin composition useful as an adhesive for fabricating information disks exhibiting superior heat resistance and moisture resistance.
The present inventors have undertaken extensive studies and found that a photocurable resin composition with a reduced chlorine content, when used as an adhesive for information disks, induces almost no deterioration of metallic films on substrate surfaces for optical disks and can produce information recording disks with excellent moisture resistance and heat resistance.
Specifically, an object of the present invention is to provide a photocurable resin composition comprising (A) an urethane (meth) acrylate, (B) a (meth) acrylate compound having at least one (meth) acryloyl group in the molecule, and (C) a photo- initiator, wherein the content of chlorine in the composition is not more than 0.001 wt%.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a process for preparing the photocurable resin composition according to claim 1, comprising a step of washing the components (A) , (B) , and (C) either prior, during or after blending two or more of the components (A) , (B) , and (C) .

The amount of these additives can be appropriately determined so that the objectives of the present invention are not adversely affected.
The amount of chlorine is defined as relative to the total composition, and more preferably relative to total of components (A) , (B) and (C) . In the composition of the present invention some chlorine may be present, for instance, 0.1 ppm or more, but should not be more than 0.001 wt%, preferably not more than 0.0003 wt%, and even more preferably not more than 0.0005 wt%. Distortion on the surface of a metal film for optical disk substrate can be reduced using the resin composition with a small chlorine content. In addition, the moisture resistance and heat resistance of the optical disk substrate are improved. Reducing the chlorine content to less than 0.001 wt% can be achieved by using the raw materials such as components (A) , (B) , and (C) , as well as other additives, having a chlorine content of less than 0.001 wt%. As some raw materials may have a chlorine content of more than
0.001 wt%, therefore, it may be necessary to wash these materials either before, during or after they are combined with or into the composition to lower or remove the chlorine. Preferred methods for reducing the chlorine content in the composition of the present invention to less than 0.001 wt% include (1) a method of washing the raw materials, an intermediate containing two or more raw materials, or the composition prepared by mixing all the components with purified water and (2) a method of treating one or more of these materials with an ion exchange material . For example, the method for removing chlorine by washing preferably includes thoroughly mixing with purified water the treating material, i . e . , (1) the raw materials, (2) the intermediate comprising at least two raw material components, or (3) the composition containing all raw materials, with purified water to dissolve out chlorine into water, separating the water from the treating materials, and drying the treating material. Here, "purified water" means water with a sufficiently low content of chlorine. Preferably, purified water includes distilled water, ion exchanged water, and water prepared by filtering these waters through a suitable filter. For ease of operation, an organic solvent may be added to the treating material prior to washing with water. Such an organic solvent is removed after washing. A hydrophobic solvent which can abundantly dissolve the raw materials, the intermediate comprising at least two raw material components, or the composition containing all raw materials, but can only scarcely dissolve water, can be used in this washing operation.
Specific examples of such a solvent include aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, and xylene; aliphatic hydrocarbons such as n-hexane, cyclohexane, and n-pentane; and ethers such as diethyl ether and isopropyl ether.
Suitable ion exchange materials include organic ion exchange materials and inorganic ion exchange materials. A treatment by means of "contact" is a typical treatment with these ion exchange materials. A specific method of treatment comprises mixing the ion exchange material with the treating material, i . e . , (1) the raw materials, (2) the intermediate comprising at least two raw material components, or (3) the composition containing all raw materials. After mixing, the ion exchange material is usually removed by precipitation in a sedimentation tank, forcedly separated by a centrifugal separator, or removed by filtration using a suitable filter. However, the ion exchange material need not be removed, if there is no adverse effect on the performance of the adhered disks. Moreover, it is possible to continuously remove chlorine by causing the treating materials to pass through a column packed with the ion exchange material.
The ion exchange material used in the present invention should be mutually insoluble with and easily separated from the resin composition, and is preferably in the form of particles. Suitable ion- exchange resins include organic materials, and inorganic ion exchange materials. Examples of suitable inorganic materials having an ion exchange capabilities include activated carbon, zeolite, synthetic zeolite, silica gel, activated alumina, hydrotalcite, hydrocalumite, acid clay, dolomite, zirconium hydroxide, titanium hydroxide, cerium hydroxide, bismuth hydroxide, manganese hydroxide, hydroxide lead phosphate, various hydrate oxide containing Mg, Zn, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni , Cu, Al , Si, or the like as a major component, and inorganic ion exchange materials containing various metal phosphate as a major component. Preferred inorganic ion-exchange materials include hydrotalcite compounds are DHT-4A, KW-1000, KW- 2000 (manufactured by Kyowa Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.); as hydrocalumite compound, Solcat C (manufactured by Nippon Chemical Industrial Co., Ltd.); as bismuth-type ion exchange materials, IXE-500, IXE- 550, IXE-600, IXE-633, and IXE-680; as aluminum-type ion exchange materials, IXE-700 and IXE-702; as zirconium-type ion exchange material, IXE-800; as lead- based inorganic ion exchange material, IXE-1000; as calcium-type ion exchange material, IXE-1100; and as antimony-type ion exchange material, IXE-1320 (all manufactured by Toagosei Co., Ltd.) . The viscosity of the composition of the present invention is preferably from 10 to 10000 mPa.s, more preferably from 50 to 5000 mPa.s, and even more preferably from 100 to 2000 mPa.s.
These components are formulated so that the glass transition temperature of the resulting cured product is from -50 to 200°C, preferably from -20 to 150°C, and more preferably from 0 to 100°C. If the glass transition temperature is too low, the cured products may soften when heated in summer or in a closed and sunny room, thereby resulting in decrease in adhesion strength. This may cause the adhered members to peel off or slip out. On the contrary, if the glass transition temperature is too high, adhesion may be insufficient or the coated members break when dropped or bent.
The glass transition temperature described here is defined as the temperature at which a loss tangent (tan δ) reaches a peak when measured by a dynamic viscoelasticity measuring device at an oscillation frequency of 10 Hz. The composition of the present invention can be cured by exposure to ultraviolet radiation, visible rays, electron beams, or the like in the same manner as in the case of using conventional photocurable resin compositions. The composition of the present invention can be easily cured by filling the composition between the members to be coated so that the thickness of the adhesive layer is from 10 to 100 mm and irradiating the adhesive layer at a dose of 50 to 2000 J/cm using a metal halide lamp, whereby the members can be glued to each other.
Further, the cured products made from the composition of the present invention are desired to have excellent transparency. For example, it is preferable that the cured products with a thickness of 60 mm have a light transmittance of 90% or more at a wave length of 400 to 700 nm. If the light transmittance is less than 90%, not only is the appearance of the optical disks impaired, but also the light for reading the information recorded on the disk is reduced by the adhesive layer, thereby making it difficult to read the information. Therefore, in preparing the composition of the present invention, each component should be blended so that the light transmittance of the resulting cured product satisfy this requirement.
In addition, it is desirable to blend each component so that the refractive index of the photocured product made from the composition of the present invention is in the range from 1.51 to 1.70. If the refractive index is out of this range, reading of the information recorded on the disk may be difficult.
The composition of the present invention exhibits excellent adhesion to plastics such as polycarbonate (PC) and poly (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), metals such as gold and aluminum, and inorganic materials such as glass. Therefore, the composition of the present invention is suitable as an adhesive for various elements of an information disk in particular those employed in optical disks.
The resin composition of the present invention is useful as an adhesive for information disks made by adhering two sheets of substrate, particularly for adhering a layer comprising information (or material suitable for recording information) which may consist, for example, of a light reflection layer made of a thin metal film provided on a resin substrate, to a second substrate. Often, the second substrate may similarly comprise information (or material suitable for recording information) consisting of a light reflection layer made of a thin metal film provided on a resin substrate, or another element not comprising an information storage/recording components. Preferred examples of an information disk comprising multiple elements include DVD, DVD-R, DVD-ROM, and the like.
If the chlorine content relative to the total composition of the present invention exceeds 0.001 wt%, corrosion or deterioration of the thin metal film on the information recording layer will be conspicuous due to moisture invading from outside into the cured adhesive layer or into the interface of the cured adhesive and metal film.
Preferred embodiments of the adhesive for optical disks of the present invention described above in detail are as follows:
1. The composition, wherein the urethane (meth) acrylate for the component (A) has a number average molecular weight from 600 to 10,000. 2. The composition, wherein the component (A) is incorporated in an amount from 5 to 70 parts by weight of 100 parts by weight of the total amount of the components (A) , (B) , and (C) .
3. The composition, wherein the component (B) is incorporated in an amount from 30 to 90 parts by weight of 100 parts by weight of the total amount of the components (A) , (B) , and (C) .
4. The composition, wherein the component (C) is incorporated in an amount from 1 to 10 parts by weight of 100 parts by weight of the total amount of the components (A) , (B) , and (C) .
5. The composition having a chlorine content of not more than 0.0005% by weight.
6. The composition having a viscosity from 100 to 2000 mPa.s at 25°C.
7. The composition, of which the cured product obtained by irradiation with UV light has a glass transition temperature from 0 to 100°C.

Examples
The present invention will be explained in more detail by way of examples, which are not intended to be limiting of the present invention.
Synthesis of urethane acrylate for component (A) Synthesis Example 1
130.3 g of isophorone diisocyanate, 0.3 g of 3 , 5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxytoluene, and 1.3 g of di-n- butyltin dilaurate were placed in a separable flask (1 liter) equipped with a stirrer and a thermometer. The mixture was stirred and cooled to 10°C in a cold water bath in dry air. 109 g of 2 -hydroxyethyl acrylate was gradually added to the mixture and reacted for one hour while maintaining the temperature at 10 to 35°C. Then, 600 g of polytetramethylene glycol having a hydroxyl value of 54.9 mg KOH/g was added and the resulting mixture was stirred at 50 to 70°C for 5 hours to react, thus obtaining urethane acrylate (Al) having a number average molecular weight of 2710.
200 g of the urethane acrylate (Al) was dissolved in 400 g of toluene. After the addition of 1000 g of ion exchanged water, the solution was thoroughly stirred and then allowed to stand to separate the water layer from the organic layer. After the addition of 1000 g of ion exchange water to the resulting organic layer, the mixture was stirred and allowed to stand, followed by separation of the water layer. The organic layer thus obtained was subjected to a rotary evaporator to evaporate toluene and water, thus obtaining purified urethane acrylate (A2) .
Synthesis Example 2 175.8 g of 1,3- bis (isocyanatemethyl) cyclohexane (Takenate 600, manufactured by TAKEDA CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES Co., Ltd.), 0.3 g of 3, 5 -di-t-butyl-4 -hydrox toluene, and 505.6 g of polycarbonate diol having a hydroxyl value of 224 mg KOH/g (PLACCEL CD205, manufactured by Daicel Chemical Industries, Ltd.) were placed in a separable flask (1 liter) equipped with a stirrer and a thermometer. The mixture was stirred and cooled to 10°C in a cold water bath in dry air. 1.3 g of di-n-butyltin dilaurate was added and the mixture was stirred for one hour while cooling over a cold water bath to maintain the temperature at 10 to 35°C. Then, 17.2 g of 2- hydroxyethyl acrylate was added and the resulting mixture was stirred at 50 to 70°C for 5 hours to continue the reaction, thus obtaining urethane acrylate (A3) having a number average molecular weight of 1130. The urethane acrylate (A3) was washed with ion exchanged water in the same manner as in Synthesis Example 1 to obtain urethane acrylate (A4) .
Examples and Comparative Examples
Preparation of photocurable resin compositions
The components shown in Table 1 were placed in a reaction vessel equipped with a stirrer and stirred to prepare the compositions of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4. The amount of each component is indicated by parts by weight in Table 1. After preparation, the compositions of Example 1 and Example 3 were passed through a glass tube with a diameter of 5 cm packed with granules of a bismuth-type ion exchange material (IXE-500G, manufactured by Toagosei Co., Ltd.) to a depth of 50 cm and maintained at 50 °C, thereby removing chloride ion. This treatment for removing chloride ion is hereinafter called "column treatment". The components shown in Table 1 are as follows.
Component (B)
BI : Phenoxyethyl acrylate
B2 : 1 , 6-Hexanediol diacrylate B3 : Lauryl acrylate
B4 : 2 -Hydroxy-3 -phenyloxypropyl acrylate
B5 : Acryloylmorpholine
B6 : Tetrahydrofurfuryl acrylate
Component (C)
Cl : 1 -Hydroxyeyelohexyl phenyl ketone
C2 : 2-Methyl-l- [4- (methylthio) phenyl] -2-morpholino- propan-1-on C3 : Oligo [2 -hydroxy-2 -methyl-1- [4- (1- methylvinyl) phenyl] propan-1-on] (Esacure KIP150, manufactured by Lamberti) C4 : 2 , 2-Dimethoxy-l, 2-diphenylethan-l-on
Component (D) (other component) DI : Sodium chloride The chlorine content for the compositions (Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4) thus prepared were measured as follows. 4 g of each composition shown in Table 1 and 80 g ion exchanged water were sealed in a Teflon container and heated in a pressure cooker for 24 hours at 120°C to hydrolyze hydrolyzable chlorine compounds into chloride ion. The chloride ion was dissolved in ion exchanged water and quantitatively analyzed by ion chromatography using DIONEX 2010i manufactured by DIONEX Co. Ion Pac AS12A was used as a separation column and an aqueous solution of Na2C03 (0.0027 mol/liter) and NaHC03 (0.0003 mol/liter) used as an eluate at a flow rate of 1.1 ml/minute.
Viscosity of the compositions prepared above, refractive index and glass-transition temperature of the cured products made from the compositions, and moisture resistance and heat resistance of disks prepared by using these compositions as adhesives were evaluated according to the following method.
(1) Viscosity Viscosity was measured at 25°C using a
Brookfield type viscometer (BM-type, Rotor No. 2) manufactured by Tokyo Keiki Co., Ltd.
(2) Refractive index The composition was applied on a flat glass plate using an applicator bar and cured by irradiating with ultraviolet radiation at a dose of 1 J/cm2 using a conveyer-type ultraviolet radiation apparatus with a metal halide lamp as a light source (manufactured by the Eye Graphics Co., Ltd.) . The cured product was peeled off from the glass plate to obtain a cure film with a thickness 0.2 mm. Refractive index of the cure film was measured at 25 °C using an Abbe's refractometer manufactured by ATAGO Co., Ltd.
(3) Glass-transition temperature
Glass-transition temperature of the cure film prepared in (2) above was measured using an enforced resonance frequency-type dynamic viscoelasticity measurement appratus manufactured by
Orientech Co., Ltd. A temperature when the loss tangent (tanδ) was a peak at an oscillation frequency of 10 Hz was taken as the glass-transition temperature of the cured product .
(4) Moisture resistance and heat resistance of disks
A polycarbonate substrate with a thickness of 0.6 mm and another substrate prepared by sputtering an aluminum film by vapor deposition to a thickness of 200 angstrom on one side of the same polycarbonate substrate were used for the test. The compositions prepared in the above Examples and Comparative Examples were dropped onto the aluminum surface of the latter substrate, i.e. the substrate with an aluminum film sputtered by vapor deposition. The polycarbonate substrate was layered over the aluminum surface onto which the composition was dropped. The substrates were rotated by a spin coater to cause the composition to permeate into the both substrates. Light was irradiated at a dose of 300 mJ/cm through the polycarbonate substrate to cure the composition. The adhered substrate thus prepared was allowed to stand for 200 hours in a thermo-hygrostat at 80°C, 95%RH, to observe the outward appearance both by the naked eyes and microscope. The moisture resistance and heat resistance was rated as "0" for the composition exhibiting no uniform corrosion, pitting corrosion, intergranular corrosion, or corrosion breaking on aluminum surface. Otherwise, the moisture resistance and heat resistance was rated as "X" .
