Definitions
- the present invention relates to a tube for supplying a fluid such as ink.
- ink of each color such as cyan, magenta, yellow, and black is supplied from an ink tank in a printer body to a print head side through a tube.
- some relatively large inkjet printers use UV (ultraviolet) curable ink by taking advantage of the fact that they can be cured instantaneously by irradiating ultraviolet rays immediately after printing.
- UV curable ink to reduce the amount of UV light radiated from the UV irradiation section to cure the UV curable ink, as in the conventional example, to reach the vicinity of the ink flow path, or to shield the ink flowing in the tube from the UV light Ink tubes using black resin to which carbon black or the like is added are used.
- an inkjet printer using UV curable ink is provided with a mechanism for reducing the illuminance of ultraviolet rays with respect to the ink supply path including the ink tube, but it is difficult to completely prevent ink curing in the ink tube.
- inside the printer housing it is protected from the ultraviolet rays contained in sunlight, fluorescent lights, etc. around the printer, but the printer body cover may be opened during printer maintenance work, etc.
- the inside of the housing is exposed to ultraviolet rays.
- the curing of the UV curable ink as described above is prevented by using a black resin in which carbon black or the like having ultraviolet shielding properties is added to the material of the ink tube.
- an ink tube using a black resin to which carbon black or the like is added as in the above conventional example cannot sufficiently shield the ultraviolet rays, and it is difficult to completely eliminate problems such as clogging due to ink curing. there were.
- black resin because black resin is used, the ink tube becomes black and opaque, and it is difficult to check the flow of ink in the tube from the outside, so check the inside of the tube from the outside of the ink tube when a defect occurs There was an inconvenience that could not be done.
- the ink hardens in the tube and adheres to the inner wall of the tube, it may be necessary to wash away with chemicals or replace it with a new tube. This increases the running cost of the printer.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a tube that can effectively protect the fluid in the tube from the influence of ultraviolet rays and is visible from the outside.
- an ultraviolet absorber comprising a yellow organic pigment and an inorganic compound
- the tube of the present invention is a tube having an ultraviolet shielding layer made of a resin composition in which a yellow organic pigment and an ultraviolet absorber made of an inorganic compound are dispersed.
- the light transmittance at a wavelength of 350 nm is 4% to 14% and the light transmittance at a wavelength of 400 nm is 5% to 19%.
- the tube of the present invention is a tube having an ultraviolet shielding layer made of a resin composition in which a yellow organic pigment and an ultraviolet absorbent made of an inorganic compound are dispersed.
- the yellow organic pigment is an organic pigment having a yellow hue of 10R to 5GY in the Munsell hue ring (20 hues).
- the yellow organic pigment mainly absorbs ultraviolet light having a wavelength of about 350 nm or less and visible light having a short wavelength and has a characteristic of allowing visible light having a relatively long wavelength to pass through.
- the ultraviolet absorber which consists of an inorganic type compound as a ultraviolet-ray shielding layer
- zinc oxide has the property to absorb the ultraviolet rays below about 380 nm.
- a high ultraviolet shielding rate can be obtained and visible light can be transmitted, so that both the ultraviolet shielding rate and visibility can be achieved.
- conventionally known light stabilizers, antioxidants and the like can be used in combination, and deterioration of the tube can be suppressed by dispersing at least one of these together with the yellow organic pigment and the inorganic compound.
- a master batch is used in which the pigment is treated to improve dispersibility and kneaded into the resin at a high concentration to form pellets.
- a blend of the master batch and resin is put into a single screw extruder and formed, but that alone does not sufficiently disperse the pigment and the UV absorber, and the effect of the present invention Cannot be obtained.
- the tube of the present invention uses a master batch, and further kneads the blended resin with a twin screw extruder into pellets, and improves the dispersion by using an extruder using a dalmage screw.
- the tube of the present invention has a light transmittance in terms of thickness when the tube is diluted 10 times by volume, and the light transmittance at a wavelength of 350 nm is 4% to 14% and the light transmittance at a wavelength of 400 nm.
- the rate is 5% or more and 19% or less.
- the definition of “when the tube is diluted 10 times by volume” is because the difference in the effect becomes clear by diluting 10 times, and the UV absorber and the pigment are measured by measuring the transmittance.
- the ink curability of the resin composition containing can be determined.
- the resin for diluting the tube the resin used as the base of the tube to be diluted is used.
- the tube is a single-layer tube
- the tube is cut out, the volume is measured, and the mixture with the base resin of 9 times the volume is the same as the wall thickness of the tube Form into a thick film.

- the tube is a multi-layer tube
- the volume is measured, mixed with the resin used as the base of the ultraviolet shielding layer, diluted 10 times in volume ratio, and then formed into a film having the same thickness as the thickness of the ultraviolet shielding layer.
- the light transmittance in the thickness direction is measured, and the measured value is taken as the light transmittance in terms of thickness.
- a 10-fold diluted resin is formed into a 0.25 mm thick film, and the molded film is used. And measure the light transmittance in the thickness direction.
- the measured value of the light transmittance of a film having a thickness of 0.25 mm can be converted into the light transmittance of the tube thickness or the thickness of the ultraviolet shielding layer by applying the Lambert-Beer law.
- the light transmittance converted to the thickness of the tube or the thickness of the ultraviolet shielding layer is defined as the light transmittance converted to the thickness.
- the reason why the light transmittance at a wavelength of 350 nm is 4% or more and 14% or less is that when the transmittance is higher than 14%, the substantial concentration of the ultraviolet absorber is mainly too low to transmit and transmit ultraviolet rays.
- the ink is cured by absorbing ultraviolet energy. Also, if it is lower than 4%, the substantial concentration of the UV absorber is mainly too high, which impairs the visibility of the tube contents. With this configuration, ink curing can be prevented without impairing visibility.

(2)比較例7、8は、単軸押出機(口径 30mm、L/D=28 )にて、単層チューブを成形した。スクリューは、一般的な成形に使用されるフルフライトスクリューを使用した。
(D)試料のフィルムの作成
(C)で成形したチューブを粉砕し、160℃のヒートプレスで溶融させて、厚さ0.25mmのフィルムに成形した。
本実施例、比較例では、分散状態を測定するマーカーとして無機系化合物からなる紫外線吸収剤の濃度を測定し、その標準偏差を算出した。
試料のチューブを粉砕し、ヒートプレス法(160℃)により厚さ2mmのシートを作成し、堀場製作所製 X線分析顕微鏡 XGT5000WR により、元素濃度を分析した。尚、このX線分析顕微鏡は、ビーム径1.2mm、測定時間は100secとし、約40mm×40mmの範囲で10箇所測定を行い、その標準偏差を計算した。実施例1~6、9~11および比較例1~3、5、6、8は酸化亜鉛を、実施例7、8、比較例4は酸化チタンを測定のマーカーとした。
実施例1~6、9~11では、黄色顔料と紫外線吸収剤(酸化亜鉛)の実質的濃度が適正であり、インクの硬化は起こらなかった。また、十分な視認性が得られた。黄色の有機顔料の色相が異なるとUV遮蔽効果と視認性を両立できる濃度範囲は異なるが、ほぼ同様の効果を示した。
実施例7、8では、無機系化合物からなる紫外線吸収剤として酸化亜鉛の代わりに酸化チタンを使用した。酸化亜鉛同様、インクの硬化を防ぐことができ、視認性も得られた。尚、酸化チタンを黄色の有機顔料と分散させた実施例7及び8では、特に400nmの波長のUV遮蔽に効果があり、視認性も得られた。
比較例1、2、5及び6では、主に黄色の有機顔料の実質的濃度が不十分であり、インクの硬化が起きた。
比較例3では、黄色の有機顔料と紫外線吸収剤(酸化亜鉛)の実質的濃度が過剰であり、インクの硬化を防ぐことはできたが、視認性が得られなかった。
比較例4では、黄色の有機顔料と紫外線吸収剤(酸化チタン)の実質的濃度が過剰であり、インクの硬化を防ぐことはできたが、視認性が得られなかった。
比較例7は、従来の黒色樹脂チューブに相当するものなので、インクの硬化がおきてしまい、視認性も得られなかった。
比較例8は、実施例3と同じ配合比だが、従来の方法で成形されたものであり、分散が不十分でインクの紫外線遮蔽効果が十分に発揮されず、インクの硬化が起きた。即ち、太陽光のような強い紫外線に暴露してもチューブ内部のインクに影響を与えない十分な紫外線遮蔽効果と、チューブ内部の流体を確認できる視認性を得るためには、顔料と紫外線吸収剤を均一に、高度に分散させることが重要である。
図3は、本発明の第2の実施形態のチューブを示す斜視図であり、(a)は、その3層構造のチューブ、(b)は、その2層構造のチューブを示す。
図3(a)のチューブ200は、内層202a、接着層202b及び外層202cを有する3層構造のチューブとして構成されている。内層202aは、フッ素樹脂、外層202cは、上記の第1の実施形態と同様の樹脂組成物を使用している。204は、チューブ内腔を示す。尚、図3(b)に示すように、第2の実施形態の変形例として、内層302a、外層302bを有する2層構造のチューブ300に構成しても良い。304は、チューブ内腔を示す。
チューブ内に透明な水と空気を交互に流し、水と空気の境界が視認できるかどうかを以下の基準で評価した。
○:空気の境界を視認できた。
×:空気の境界を視認できなかった。
本実施形態の効果を確認するため、多層チューブのインク透過試験も行った。即ち、多層チューブにインクを充填し、両端を封止した上で、一定時間経過後のインクの重量変化を測定した。
具体的には、表2の実施例13と、新たに比較例10として、φ3×φ3.8のチューブ500mmにUV硬化性インクを充填し、両端を封止し、60℃で1週間置き、インクの重量変化を測定した。
尚、比較例10は、実施例13のチューブの内層を接着性ETFE、外層を熱可塑性ウレタンにそれぞれ変更した多層チューブにより構成した。
1週間後、インクの重量は、実施例13は、0.16%、比較例10は、1.79%減少した。
実施例13では、内層にインクバリア性フッ素樹脂を用いているので、比較例10に比べてインクの重量変化が少なく、インク透過率を抑えることができた。
尚、本発明の第3の実施形態のように、更に、60℃における1週間あたりのチューブ全体のインク透過率が、チューブ長さ500mmあたり1%以下であるものとすることで、インク透過率を極力抑えて、インクの目減りを防止することができる。即ち、上述した視認性を得ながらも、インク透過率は小さくして、インクの目減りを防止することができる。
