It confirmed that it extended in the direction. Moreover, when the rubbing sample was compared with the coating film, it was confirmed that although the hue was almost the same, the saturation was slightly smaller. This is probably because the rubbing sample has a larger surface roughness than the coating film, and thus diffuse reflection is large, and as a result, the glossy yellow color is observed to fade.
- the color of the 3MeOT oligomer powder is a subtractive color mixture of yellow and magenta, which is brown, and is actually very dark brown, so it is close to black.
- the peak intensity is low in this powder, the number density of the lamella structure is extremely small, and it can be seen that there are many amorphous parts in the powder.
- the (100) peak is remarkably increased compared to that, and since a sharp peak with a small half-value width is shown compared with the coating film, an edge-on lamella with a large crystal size is formed. (See FIG. 28). That is, rubbing has the effect of increasing the number density of edge-on lamellae and face-on lamellae contained in the powder sample, and it is considered that gold-colored gloss was developed especially by increasing the number density and size of edge-on lamellae.
