Technical Field

The present invention relates to a laminated glass and a vehicle system having the laminated glass.

Background

Laminated glass in which an interlayer film is integrated between 2 glass sheets is widely used as window glass for automobiles. The intermediate film is often formed of plasticized polyvinyl acetal in which a plasticizer is mixed with a polyvinyl acetal resin. Even if the laminated glass is broken by external impact, scattering of glass fragments is reduced, and safety is improved.

Conventionally, laminated glass used in automobiles is required to have improved heat insulation properties in order to prevent the interior of the automobile from becoming excessively high temperature by external light such as sunlight. Therefore, it is known that an interlayer film for a laminated glass is mixed with an organic pigment, metal oxide particles, or the like having a high heat insulating effect, or an infrared reflective layer is provided (for example, see patent documents 1 and 2). Further, it is also known to provide a functional plastic film composed of an infrared-reflecting layer and an infrared-absorbing layer (for example, see patent document 3).

On the other hand, the development of an automatic driving system for an automobile has been advanced in recent years, and now, the practical use under the LEVEL3 (conditional driving automation) has been advanced. The automatic driving system of LEVEL3 requires a driver to operate if a request is made from the system during operation, such as in an emergency. Therefore, it is important to monitor the riding of the vehicle by the driver in a state where the driver can operate.

As a monitoring system, a technique has been proposed in which infrared rays are irradiated to the face of a driver, and reflected light is captured by an infrared camera, thereby recognizing the face of the driver. Infrared rays use wavelengths in the near infrared region that cannot be recognized by human eyes and are easily reflected by human skin. This makes it possible to determine whether the driver is sitting, the direction of the line of sight, whether the driver is drowsy, whether the driver is a precursor to drowsy, and the like.

Disclosure of Invention

Problems to be solved by the invention

However, infrared light is also included in external light such as sunlight that enters from the outside of the vehicle. Therefore, when the monitoring system is applied, infrared light from outside the vehicle becomes noise if it is irradiated onto the driver's face, and in some cases, a halo due to an excessive amount of light is generated, which becomes an obstacle to face recognition. The halo is a phenomenon that the light is too strong and thus exceeds the detection sensitivity of the camera, and the observed image becomes unclear.

As shown in patent documents 1 to 3, if an organic pigment or metal oxide particles are mixed in the interlayer film or an infrared reflecting layer or an infrared absorbing layer is provided, infrared light is absorbed or reflected by the interlayer film, and the infrared light is prevented from being irradiated from the outside of the vehicle to the face of the driver.

However, the wavelength of the infrared light source (e.g., LED) used in the face recognition system is desirably 900 to 1300nm near infrared rays in view of the infrared reflection wavelength of human skin. Light having such a wavelength may not be sufficiently reflected and shielded by an organic dye, metal oxide particles, or the like for the purpose of heat insulation in the related art, and noise and halation in the monitoring system may not be sufficiently prevented.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a laminated glass that can be appropriately monitored by infrared light even when an infrared light monitoring system is introduced into various vehicles such as automobiles.

Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to embodiments.

< laminated glass >

The laminated glass of the present invention has an average transmittance of 15% or less for light in a predetermined infrared wavelength region incident from one surface. Therefore, the laminated glass of the present invention sufficiently shields infrared rays in a predetermined wavelength region incident from one surface of the laminated glass. Therefore, infrared rays in a predetermined wavelength range, which are included in external light such as sunlight incident from one surface (for example, a surface on the vehicle outer side) of the laminated glass, are sufficiently shielded by the laminated glass. This suppresses halation caused by the penetration of sunlight or the like, and a clear observation image can be obtained.

The laminated glass includes a 1 st glass plate and a 2 nd glass plate, and in various vehicles, the 1 st glass plate is disposed on the vehicle exterior side and the 2 nd glass plate is disposed on the vehicle interior side. The surface of the 1 st glass plate is preferably the one surface, and the 2 nd glass plate is preferably the other surface. The same applies to the following description.

The method for measuring the average transmittance is specifically as shown in examples.

More specifically, the laminated glass according to an embodiment of the present invention has an average transmittance TA of light having a wavelength of 900 to 1300nm incident from one surface of 15% or less.

When an infrared monitoring system is introduced into various vehicles such as automobiles, it is desirable to use 900 to 1300nm infrared light for monitoring. Infrared light having such a wavelength is not recognized by human eyes, but is easily reflected by human skin or the like, and is suitable for monitoring a passenger such as a driver. On the other hand, a laminated glass satisfying an average transmittance TA of 15% or less can sufficiently shield infrared rays having a wavelength of 900 to 1300nm included in external light such as sunlight incident from one surface of the laminated glass by the laminated glass.

Therefore, if the laminated glass of the present embodiment satisfying the requirement that the average transmittance TA is 15% or less is used, even if an infrared monitoring system for monitoring a driver or the like is introduced into the vehicle, external light such as sunlight is prevented from being noise at the time of monitoring, and appropriate monitoring can be performed. Specifically, for example, in the face recognition system, whether or not it is drowsy is detected by the movement of the eyelid, and the like, and the movement of the eyelid and the like can be detected with less noise by using the laminated glass of the present embodiment.

In order to reduce noise and achieve accurate infrared monitoring, the average transmittance TA of the laminated glass of the present invention is preferably 10% or less, more preferably 5% or less, and most preferably 1% or less, and from the viewpoint of appropriate monitoring by infrared rays, the lower the average transmittance TA is, the better, but from the viewpoint of making the visible light transmittance of the laminated glass high, for example, 0.01% or more, and preferably 0.1% or more.

In addition, any 1 of the following average transmittances T1 to T4 of the laminated glass according to another embodiment of the present invention is 15% or less.

Average transmittance T1 of light with wavelength of 900-1000 nm incident from one surface

Average transmittance T2 of light with wavelength of 1000-1100 nm incident from one surface

Average transmittance T3 of light with wavelength of 1100-1200 nm incident from one surface

Average transmittance T4 of light with wavelength of 1200-1300 nm incident from one surface

An infrared light source used in an infrared monitoring system often uses an LED, which generally has a narrow emission wavelength region. When such an LED is used and infrared rays in a narrow wavelength range are selectively used, the transmittance of infrared rays in a specific wavelength range is controlled by setting at least any one of the average transmittances T1 to T4 to 15% or less, whereby highly accurate monitoring can be achieved with less noise.

As described above, when at least any one of the average transmittances T1 to T4 is 15% or less, the maximum emission wavelength of the infrared light source used in the infrared monitoring system preferably exists in a wavelength region of 15% or less among the average transmittances T1 to T4. That is, when the average transmittance T1 is 15% or less, the maximum emission wavelength of the light source used is preferably 900 to 1000 nm. When the average transmittance T2 is 15% or less, the maximum emission wavelength of the light source used is preferably 1000 to 1100 nm. When the average transmittance T3 is 15% or less, the maximum emission wavelength of the light source used is preferably 1100 to 1200 nm. When the average transmittance T4 is 15% or less, the maximum emission wavelength of the light source used is preferably 1200 to 1300 nm.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the average transmittance T1 to T4 of the laminated glass is preferably 2 or more, and more preferably 3 or more, to 15% or less. If the average transmittance is set to 15% or less in such a wide wavelength range, the noise can be reduced and the monitoring with high accuracy can be realized.

When the average transmittance of 2 or 3 pixels is 15% or less, the average transmittance of the adjacent wavelength regions is preferably 15% or less. That is, it is preferable that the average transmittance T1 and the average transmittance T2, the average transmittance T2 and the average transmittance T3, or the average transmittance T3 and the average transmittance T4 be 15% or less.

Further, it is more preferable that the average transmittance T1 and the average transmittance T2 and the average transmittance T3, or the average transmittance T2 and the average transmittance T3 and the average transmittance T4 become 15% or less. In this way, if the average transmittance in the wavelength regions adjacent to each other is set to 15% or less, the average transmittance can be continuously made low in a wide range of wavelength regions, and therefore, highly accurate monitoring can be achieved with less noise. In order to realize highly accurate monitoring with less noise, it is preferable that all of the average transmittances T1 to T4 be 15% or less.

When at least 1 of the average transmittances T1 to T4 is 15% or less as described above, the average transmittance TA is not necessarily 15% or less, but is preferably 15% or less. Since at least 1 of the average transmittances T1 to T4 is 15% or less and the average transmittance TA is 15% or less, it is easy to realize highly accurate monitoring with less noise. In this case, as described above, at least 2 of the average transmittances T1 to T4 are more preferably 15% or less, at least 3 of the average transmittances T1 to T4 are more preferably 15% or less, and all of the average transmittances T1 to T4 are preferably 15% or less. Specific combinations when at least 2 or 3 of the average transmittances T1 to T4 are 15% or less are as described above.

In the laminated glass of the present embodiment, the average transmittance T1 is preferably 10% or less, more preferably 5% or less, and desirably 2% or less. When the average transmittance T1 is made small as described above, noise can be reduced and appropriate infrared monitoring can be realized, and particularly, infrared monitoring with higher accuracy can be performed when a light source having a maximum emission wavelength of 900 to 1000nm is used. In order to maintain the visible light transmittance and the like sufficiently high, the average transmittance T1 is, for example, 0.1% or more, preferably 1% or more.

The average transmittance T2 is preferably 10% or less, more preferably 5% or less, and desirably 2% or less. When the average transmittance T2 is made small as described above, it is possible to reduce noise and realize infrared monitoring with high accuracy, and particularly, infrared monitoring with higher accuracy can be performed when a light source having a maximum emission wavelength of 1000 to 1100nm is used. In order to maintain the visible light transmittance and the like sufficiently high, the average transmittance T2 is, for example, 0.1% or more, preferably 1% or more.

The average transmittance T3 is preferably 10% or less, more preferably 5% or less, and desirably 2% or less. When the average transmittance T3 is made small as described above, it is possible to reduce noise and realize infrared monitoring with high accuracy, and particularly, infrared monitoring with higher accuracy can be performed when a light source having a maximum emission wavelength of 1100 to 1200nm is used. In order to maintain the visible light transmittance and the like sufficiently high, the average transmittance T3 is, for example, 0.1% or more, preferably 1% or more.

The average transmittance T4 is preferably 10% or less, more preferably 5% or less, and desirably 2% or less. When the average transmittance T4 is made small as described above, it is possible to reduce noise and realize infrared monitoring with high accuracy, and particularly, infrared monitoring with higher accuracy can be performed when a light source having a maximum emission wavelength of 1200 to 1300nm is used. In order to maintain the visible light transmittance and the like sufficiently high, the average transmittance T4 is, for example, 0.1% or more, preferably 1% or more.

A laminated glass according to still another embodiment of the present invention is a laminated glass used in an infrared monitoring system, and has an average transmittance TB of 15% or less.

The average transmittance TB is an average transmittance of light having a maximum emission wavelength of ± 50nm of the infrared light source, which is incident from one surface of the laminated glass. The maximum emission wavelength is a wavelength at which the emission intensity of the infrared light source used for monitoring is the highest.

As described above, an infrared light source used in an infrared monitoring system often uses an LED, and the LED generally has a narrow emission wavelength region. Therefore, by setting the average transmittance of light in the wavelength region of the maximum emission wavelength of the light source and the vicinity thereof to 15% or less, noise can be reduced and high-precision monitoring can be realized.

The average transmittance TB is preferably 10% or less, more preferably 5% or less, and desirably 2% or less. If the average transmittance TB is made as small as this, noise can be reduced and infrared monitoring with high accuracy can be realized, which is effective particularly when a light source having a maximum emission wavelength of 1000 to 1100nm is used. In order to maintain the visible light transmittance and the like sufficiently high, the average transmittance TB is, for example, 0.1% or more, preferably 1% or more.

(visible light transmittance (Tv))

The laminated glass of the present invention preferably has a visible light transmittance (Tv) of 60% or more so as to be suitably used as a window glass, and more preferably 65% or more, further preferably 70% or more, and further preferably 75% or more so as to be suitably used as a front window of an automobile. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of transparency of the window glass, the higher the visible light transmittance, the better, but in order to make the transmittance of light in a predetermined infrared wavelength region low as described above, and to facilitate improvement of the heat shielding property, the higher is preferably 99% or less, more preferably 95% or less, and still more preferably 90% or less.

The visible light transmittance (Tv) may be measured in accordance with JIS R3212(2015), and the specific measurement method is as shown in examples.

(Tts)

For example, the laminated glass of the present invention is desired to have high heat insulation properties in order to prevent the interior of a vehicle from being heated by external light such as sunlight. From such a viewpoint, Tts of the laminated glass is, for example, 70% or less, preferably 65% or less, more preferably 60% or less, and further preferably 55% or less. Tts is a short name for Total solar energy transmitted through a glazing, and is an index representing heat insulation. The laminated glass has sufficient heat insulating properties when Tts is not more than the above upper limit value. From the viewpoint of ensuring a visible light transmittance (Tv) of a certain level or higher, Tts is, for example, 30% or higher, preferably 40% or higher, more preferably 45% or higher, and still more preferably 50% or higher.

In the present invention, the transparency can be improved and Tts can be reduced by appropriately adjusting the type of the infrared absorbing agent and the type of the infrared reflective layer to be incorporated in the interlayer film as described later. Specifically, Tts may be set to 70% or less, 65% or less, 60% or less, or 50% or less, for example, while ensuring a visible light transmittance (Tv) of 60% or more. Tts is measured according to ISO 13837.

(Tds(1.5))

Tds (1.5) is the solar transmittance Tds (1.5) of the laminated glass for light having a wavelength of 300 to 2500 nm. In order to improve the heat insulating property, Tds (1.5) of the laminated glass of the present invention is, for example, 60% or less, preferably 50% or less, and more preferably 40% or less. From the viewpoint of ensuring a certain visible light transmittance (Tv) or higher, the visible light transmittance is, for example, 20% or higher, and preferably 30% or higher.

In the present invention, Tds (1.5) can be made low while improving transparency as described above, and specifically, Tds (1.5) can be made, for example, 60% or less, 50% or less, or 40% or less while securing visible light transmittance (Tv) of 70% or more.

The solar transmittance Tds (1.5) can be measured according to ISO 13837 (2008).

Next, the structure of the laminated glass of the present invention will be described in detail.

The laminated glass includes a pair of glass plates (1 st glass and 2 nd glass), and an interlayer disposed between the pair of glass plates. The pair of glass plates are bonded together via an interlayer film to form a laminated glass.

(Infrared absorber)

The laminated glass of the present invention preferably contains an infrared absorber. The laminated glass contains an infrared absorber, so that the transmittance of light in the wavelength region of 900 to 1300nm is low, and the average transmittance is easily set to 15% or less. Further, the heat insulation property and the like are also easily improved. The infrared absorber is preferably contained in the intermediate film.

Examples of the infrared absorber include an organic dye and heat-insulating particles. The organic pigment is preferably an organic pigment containing a metal element. The organic pigments may be used alone in 1 kind, or in combination of 2 or more kinds. When the organic dye contains a metal element, the metal element may be 1 kind alone, or 2 or more kinds. The metal element may be contained in the form of a compound such as a metal oxide.

The metal element may be a transition element or a main group metal. Examples of the transition element include a group 4 element, a group 5 element, a group 6 element, a group 7 element, a group 8 element, a group 9 element, a group 10 element, a group 11 element, a group 12 element, and the like. Examples of the main group metal include group 13 elements and group 14 elements. Specific examples of the metal element include copper, zinc, vanadium, and tin.

Examples of the organic dye include phthalocyanine compounds, naphthalocyanine compounds, and anthracyanine compounds.

The phthalocyanine compound is phthalocyanine or a phthalocyanine derivative having a phthalocyanine skeleton, and preferably contains a metal element therein. The naphthalocyanine compound is a naphthalocyanine or a naphthalocyanine derivative having a naphthalocyanine skeleton, and preferably contains a metal element therein. The anthracene phthalocyanine compound is anthracene phthalocyanine or an anthracene phthalocyanine derivative having an anthracene phthalocyanine skeleton, and preferably contains a metal element therein.

In these organic pigments, the metal element is preferably a central metal of a naphthalocyanine skeleton, or an anthracene phthalocyanine skeleton.

Among the above, the organic coloring matters are preferably phthalocyanine compounds containing a metal element.

The heat insulating particles are made of a material capable of absorbing infrared rays having a wavelength of 780nm or more, that is, heat rays. The heat-insulating particles are formed of an inorganic material, and specific examples thereof include particles other than metal oxide particles, such as metal oxide particles and lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) particles. Examples of the metal oxide particles include tin oxide particles such as aluminum-doped tin oxide particles, indium-doped tin oxide particles, and antimony-doped tin oxide particles (ATO particles), zinc oxide particles such as gallium-doped zinc oxide particles (GZO particles), indium-doped zinc oxide particles (IZO particles), aluminum-doped zinc oxide particles (AZO particles), tin-doped zinc oxide particles, and silicon-doped zinc oxide particles, titanium oxide particles such as niobium-doped titanium oxide particles, indium oxide particles such as tin-doped indium oxide particles (ITO particles), sodium-doped tungsten oxide particles, cesium-doped tungsten oxide particles (CWO particles), thallium-doped tungsten oxide particles, and tungsten oxide particles such as rubidium-doped tungsten oxide particles. Further, insulating particles other than them may be used. The heat insulating material can be used singly or in combination of 2 or more.

Among them, in order to increase the heat ray shielding function, metal oxide particles are preferable, at least 1 kind selected from ATO particles, GZO particles, ITO particles and CWO particles is more preferable, and ITO particles or CWO particles is further preferable.

The average particle diameter of the heat-shielding particles has a preferred lower limit of 10nm, a more preferred lower limit of 20nm, a preferred upper limit of 100nm, a more preferred upper limit of 80nm, and a further preferred upper limit of 50 nm. If the average particle diameter is not less than the preferable lower limit, the heat ray shielding property can be sufficiently improved. Further, if the average particle diameter is not more than the preferable upper limit, the visible light is not easily shielded by a heat insulating material, and the visible light transmittance (Tv) can be easily adjusted to a predetermined range.

The "average particle diameter" represents a volume average particle diameter. The average particle diameter can be measured using a particle size distribution measuring apparatus ("UPA-EX 150" manufactured by Nikkiso Co., Ltd.).

In the present invention, the average transmittance TA, the average transmittances T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be set to 15% or less by appropriately adjusting the absorption characteristics of the infrared absorber. For example, by using an infrared absorber having a maximum absorption wavelength peak in the range of 900 to 1300nm (hereinafter, also referred to as "the 1 st infrared absorber"), the average transmittance TA, the average transmittance T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be easily adjusted to 15% or less.

More specifically, for example, by using the 1 st infrared absorber having a maximum absorption wavelength peak of 900 to 1000nm, the average transmittance T1 is easily 15% or less. In addition, for example, by using the 1 st infrared absorbent having a maximum absorption wavelength peak of 1000 to 1100nm, the average transmittance T2 is easily 15% or less.

The 1 st infrared absorber may be any organic dye as long as it is used, and among them, an organic dye having a metal element is preferable, and a phthalocyanine compound having a metal element is more preferable. The organic dye can adjust the maximum absorption wavelength peak by appropriately adjusting the type of the substituent or the metal element substituted for the basic skeleton, and for example, the maximum absorption wavelength peak can be adjusted to a range of 900 to 1300nm by appropriately changing the type of the substituent or the central metal substituted for the phthalocyanine skeleton in the phthalocyanine compound.

As the 1 st infrared absorber, commercially available ones can be used, and examples of the phthalocyanine compound having a metal element include a product name "IR-915" (maximum absorption wavelength peak: about 950nm), a product name "TX-EX-902K" (maximum absorption wavelength peak: 1026nm), a product name "TX-EX-931" (maximum absorption wavelength peak: 945nm), a product name "IR-924" (all manufactured by Nippon Kogyo Co., Ltd.).

Of course, the infrared absorber is not limited to the 1 st infrared absorber, and an infrared absorber having a maximum absorption wavelength peak in a range of 780nm or more and less than 900nm (hereinafter, also referred to as "2 nd infrared absorber") may be used. Among the above, the 2 nd infrared absorbing agent is preferably an organic dye, particularly an organic dye having a metal element, and more preferably a phthalocyanine compound having a metal element.

As the 2 nd infrared absorber, commercially available products can be used, and examples of the phthalocyanine compound having a metal element include a trade name "イーエスカラー IR-14" (maximum absorption wavelength peak: 834nm), a trade name "TX-EX-W801" (maximum absorption wavelength peak: 785nm) (both manufactured by Nippon catalyst Co., Ltd.), and a trade name "NIR-43V" (maximum absorption wavelength peak 750nm) (manufactured by Yamada chemical industry Co., Ltd.).

The 2 nd infrared absorber is preferably used together with the 1 st infrared absorber, or with the heat-shielding particles described later.

The maximum absorption wavelength peak of the infrared absorber can be measured by the following method. A chloroform solution is obtained by mixing 0.0002 to 0.002 parts by mass of a compound to be measured with respect to 100 parts by mass of chloroform. The resulting chloroform solution was introduced into a spectrophotometer having an optical path length of 1.0cm using a quartz cell. The transmittance at 300 to 2500nm was measured using an automatic recording spectrophotometer ("U4100" manufactured by Hitachi Ltd.), and the maximum absorption wavelength peak was obtained. The maximum absorption wavelength peak is a wavelength at which the transmittance shows a minimum value, and in this case, the maximum absorption wavelength peak is a wavelength at which the minimum value is the minimum.

Further, as the infrared absorber, heat insulating particles are also preferably used. The heat-insulating particles are not so high in performance of absorbing infrared rays in a wavelength region of 900 to 1300nm, but can effectively shield incidence of heat rays and infrared rays. Therefore, by using the heat insulating particles in combination with the 1 st infrared absorber and an infrared reflecting layer described later, the transmittance of 900 to 1300nm can be reduced and the increase in the temperature inside the vehicle can be prevented by the heat insulating particles.

[ layer containing absorbent ]

The infrared absorber is preferably contained in the intermediate film. The interlayer film preferably has a resin layer containing an infrared absorber (hereinafter, may be referred to as "absorber-containing layer"). The resin constituting the absorbent-containing layer is preferably a thermoplastic resin. That is, the layer containing the absorber preferably contains a thermoplastic resin in addition to the infrared absorber, and the infrared absorber is preferably dispersed or dissolved in the thermoplastic resin. The layer containing the absorbent easily functions as an adhesive layer by containing the thermoplastic resin, and has good adhesion to a glass plate and an infrared-reflecting layer described later.

The thermoplastic resin may be used alone in 1 kind or in combination of 2 or more kinds in the absorbent-containing layer of the present invention. Among them, at least 1 selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl acetal resins and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resins is preferable, and particularly when used in combination with a plasticizer, polyvinyl acetal resins are more preferable from the viewpoint of exhibiting excellent adhesion to glass.

(polyvinyl acetal resin)

The polyvinyl acetal resin is not particularly limited as long as it is a polyvinyl acetal resin obtained by acetalizing polyvinyl alcohol with an aldehyde, but a polyvinyl butyral resin is suitable. The acetalization degree of the polyvinyl acetal resin preferably has a lower limit of 40 mol%, a preferred upper limit of 85 mol%, a more preferred lower limit of 60 mol%, and a more preferred upper limit of 75 mol%.

The preferable lower limit of the amount of the hydroxyl group in the polyvinyl acetal resin is 15 mol%, and the preferable upper limit is 35 mol%. By setting the hydroxyl group amount to 15 mol% or more, the adhesiveness to a glass plate or the like is easily improved, and the penetration resistance and the like of the laminated glass are easily improved. Further, the amount of hydroxyl groups is 35 mol% or less, thereby preventing the laminated glass from becoming too hard. The lower limit of the amount of the hydroxyl group is more preferably 25 mol%, and the upper limit is more preferably 33 mol%.

In the case of using a polyvinyl butyral resin as the polyvinyl acetal resin, from the same viewpoint, the preferable lower limit of the amount of the hydroxyl group is 15 mol%, the preferable upper limit is 35 mol%, the more preferable lower limit is 25 mol%, and the more preferable upper limit is 33 mol%.

The acetalization degree and the hydroxyl group amount can be measured by the method in accordance with JIS K6728 "ポリビニルブチラール test test method (polyvinyl butyral test method)".

The polyvinyl acetal resin can be prepared by acetalizing polyvinyl alcohol with an aldehyde. Polyvinyl alcohol is generally obtained by saponifying polyvinyl acetate, and polyvinyl alcohol having a saponification degree of 80 to 99.8 mol% is generally used.

The polymerization degree of the polyvinyl acetal resin has a preferred lower limit of 500 and a preferred upper limit of 4000. By setting the polymerization degree to 500 or more, the penetration resistance of the laminated glass becomes good. Further, the degree of polymerization is 4000 or less, whereby the laminated glass can be easily molded. A more preferable lower limit of the polymerization degree is 1000, and a more preferable upper limit is 3600.

The aldehyde is not particularly limited, and generally, an aldehyde having 1 to 10 carbon atoms is suitably used. The aldehyde having 1 to 10 carbon atoms is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include n-butyraldehyde, isobutyraldehyde, n-valeraldehyde, 2-ethylbutyraldehyde, n-hexanal, n-octanal, n-nonanal, n-decanal, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, benzaldehyde, and the like. Among them, n-butyraldehyde, n-hexanal and n-valeraldehyde are preferable, and n-butyraldehyde is more preferable. These aldehydes may be used alone, or 2 or more of them may be used in combination.

(ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin)

The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin may be a non-crosslinked ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin, or may be a high-temperature crosslinked ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin. Further, as the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin, an ethylene-vinyl acetate modified resin such as a saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer or a hydrolysate of ethylene-vinyl acetate may be used.

Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin according to JIS K6730 "エチレン -acetic acid ビニル method for resin bonding test (ethylene/vinyl acetate resin test method)" or JIS K6924-2: the vinyl acetate content measured in 1997 is preferably 10 to 50 mass%, more preferably 20 to 40 mass%. When the vinyl acetate content is not less than the lower limit, the adhesion to glass is high, and the penetration resistance of the laminated glass is likely to be good. When the vinyl acetate content is not more than the above upper limit, the fracture strength of the layer containing the absorbent increases, and the impact resistance of the laminated glass becomes good.

(ionomer resin)

The ionomer resin is not particularly limited, and various ionomer resins can be used. Specific examples thereof include vinyl ionomer, styrene ionomer, perfluorocarbon ionomer, telechelic ionomer, and polyurethane ionomer. Among them, vinyl ionomer is preferable in terms of good mechanical strength, durability, transparency and the like of the laminated glass and excellent adhesion to glass.

As the ethylene based ionomer, an ionomer of an ethylene/unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer is preferably used because it is excellent in transparency and toughness.

Examples of the ion source in the ionomer resin include alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, and cesium, and polyvalent metals such as magnesium, calcium, and zinc, and sodium and zinc are preferable.

The ionomer resin can be produced by a conventionally known production method, although the production method is not particularly limited. For example, when an ionomer of an ethylene/unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer is used as the ionomer resin, an ethylene/unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer is produced by, for example, radical copolymerization of ethylene and an unsaturated carboxylic acid at high temperature and high pressure. Further, by reacting the ethylene/unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer with the metal compound containing the ion source, an ionomer of the ethylene/unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer can be produced.

(polyurethane resin)

Examples of the polyurethane resin include a polyurethane obtained by reacting an isocyanate compound with a diol compound, a polyurethane obtained by reacting an isocyanate compound with a chain extender such as a diol compound and a polyamine, and the like. Further, the polyurethane resin may contain a sulfur atom. In this case, it is preferable that a part or all of the diols be selected from polythiols and sulfur-containing polyols. The polyurethane resin can provide good adhesion to organic glass. Therefore, the glass plate is suitable for use in the case where the glass plate is organic glass.

(thermoplastic elastomer)

Examples of the thermoplastic elastomer include styrene-based thermoplastic elastomers and aliphatic polyolefins. The styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer is not particularly limited, and known ones can be used. The styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer generally has a styrene monomer polymer block as a hard segment and a conjugated diene compound polymer block as a soft segment or a hydrogenated block thereof. Specific examples of the styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer include a styrene-isoprene diblock copolymer, a styrene-butadiene diblock copolymer, a styrene-isoprene-styrene triblock copolymer, a styrene-butadiene/isoprene-styrene triblock copolymer, a styrene-butadiene-styrene triblock copolymer, and hydrogenated products thereof.

The aliphatic polyolefin may be a polyolefin having a chain olefin as a monomer, or a polyolefin having a cyclic olefin as a monomer. The aliphatic polyolefin is preferably a saturated aliphatic polyolefin from the viewpoint of effectively improving the storage stability and the sound insulating property of the interlayer film.

Examples of the material of the aliphatic polyolefin include ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, trans-2-butene, cis-2-butene, 1-pentene, trans-2-pentene, cis-2-pentene, 1-hexene, trans-2-hexene, cis-2-hexene, trans-3-hexene, cis-3-hexene, 1-heptene, trans-2-heptene, cis-2-heptene, trans-3-heptene, cis-3-heptene, 1-octene, trans-2-octene, cis-2-octene, trans-3-octene, cis-3-octene, trans-4-octene, trans-2-octene, and the like, Cis-4-octene, 1-nonene, trans-2-nonene, cis-2-nonene, trans-3-nonene, cis-3-nonene, trans-4-nonene, cis-4-nonene, 1-decene, trans-2-decene, cis-2-decene, trans-3-decene, cis-3-decene, trans-4-decene, cis-4-decene, trans-5-decene, cis-5-decene, 4-methyl-1-pentene, vinylcyclohexane, and the like.

(plasticizer)

When the absorbent-containing layer of the present invention contains a thermoplastic resin, the absorbent-containing layer may further contain a plasticizer. The absorbent-containing layer becomes flexible by containing a plasticizer, and as a result, the flexibility of the laminated glass is improved, and the penetration resistance is improved. Further, high adhesion to the glass plate can be exhibited. It is particularly effective if a plasticizer is contained in the case of using a polyvinyl acetal resin as the thermoplastic resin.

Examples of the plasticizer include organic ester plasticizers such as monobasic organic acid esters and polybasic organic acid esters, and phosphoric acid plasticizers such as organic phosphoric acid plasticizers and organic phosphorous acid plasticizers. Among them, organic ester plasticizers are preferable.

The mixed adipate is prepared from at least 2 alcohols selected from alkyl alcohols having 4 to 9 carbon atoms and cyclic alcohols having 4 to 9 carbon atoms.

Among the above plasticizers, triethylene glycol di-2-ethylhexanoate (3GO) is particularly suitably used.

The content of the plasticizer in the absorbent-containing layer is not particularly limited, but a preferable lower limit is 20 parts by mass and a preferable upper limit is 70 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the thermoplastic resin. When the content of the plasticizer is 20 parts by mass or more, the laminated glass is appropriately soft and the penetration resistance and the like are good. Further, when the content of the plasticizer is 70 parts by mass or less, the plasticizer is prevented from separating from the absorbent-containing layer. A more preferable lower limit of the content of the plasticizer is 35 parts by mass, and a more preferable upper limit is 63 parts by mass.

In the absorbent-containing layer, the resin or the resin and the plasticizer are the main components, and the total amount of the thermoplastic resin and the plasticizer is usually 70 mass% or more, preferably 80 mass% or more, and more preferably 90 mass% or more and less than 100 mass% based on the total amount of the absorbent-containing layer in the colored region. By less than 100% by mass, the layer containing an absorber can contain an infrared absorber.

(other additives)

The absorbent-containing layer may contain additives such as colorants, ultraviolet absorbers, antioxidants, light stabilizers, adhesion modifiers, fluorescent brighteners, and crystal nucleating agents, as needed.

The interlayer may have a single-layer structure composed of a single resin layer or a multilayer structure composed of a plurality of resin layers. In the case of a single-layer resin layer, the absorbent-containing layer is preferably formed of 1 resin layer. In the case of a plurality of resin layers, all the resin layers may contain an infrared absorber and become absorber-containing layers, but at least 1 resin layer is preferably an absorber-containing layer.

The resin layer not containing the infrared absorber and not being a layer containing the absorber is the same as the layer containing the absorber except that it does not contain the infrared absorber, and therefore, the description thereof is omitted.

In the case of having a plurality of resin layers, the resin constituting each resin layer may be appropriately selected from the above-mentioned resins. Further, the resins constituting the respective resin layers may be different from each other, but are preferably the same as each other.

Therefore, when a plurality of resin layers are provided, the resin constituting each resin layer is preferably a polyvinyl acetal resin or an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin, and more preferably a polyvinyl acetal resin.

In the case where a plurality of resin layers are provided and each resin layer contains a plasticizer, the amount and type of the plasticizer in each resin layer may be the same or different.

[ Infrared reflecting layer ]

The laminated glass of the present invention preferably has an infrared reflecting layer. The infrared reflecting layer is preferably included in the interlayer film, and more preferably included so as to be sandwiched between 2 resin layers. The infrared reflecting layer is disposed between the 2 resin layers, and is bonded with high adhesive force by the 2 resin layers, and thus can be stably included in the interlayer film. The laminated glass of the present invention has an infrared reflecting layer, so that infrared rays incident from one surface are reflected, and the average transmittance of light of 900 to 1300nm is reduced. Therefore, the average transmittance TA, the average transmittances T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be made small. Further, the heat insulating property is also improved, and the values of Tts and Tds (1.5) are also easily adjusted to fall within a desired range.

The infrared-ray reflective layer used in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it has a property of reflecting infrared rays. The infrared-reflecting layer preferably has a low average transmittance of 900 to 1300nm, from the viewpoint of reducing the average transmittance TA, the average transmittance T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB of the laminated glass. In addition, the infrared reflecting layer preferably has a property of having an infrared transmittance of 40% or less at least 1 wavelength in the range of 900 to 1300nm, from the viewpoint of excellent infrared reflecting performance. The infrared ray transmittance of the infrared ray reflective layer used in the embodiment described later satisfies the above preferable conditions. The infrared transmittance is more preferably 30% or less, and still more preferably 20% or less at least 1 wavelength in the range of 900 to 1300 nm.

Examples of the infrared-reflective layer include a metal foil-attached resin film, a multilayer laminate film in which a metal layer and a dielectric layer are formed on a resin film, a film containing graphite, a multilayer resin film, a liquid crystal film, and a resin film containing infrared-reflective particles. These films have the property of reflecting infrared rays.

The metal foil-attached resin film includes a resin film and a metal foil laminated on an outer surface of the resin film. Examples of the material of the resin film include polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, polyvinyl acetal, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, an ethylene-acrylic copolymer, polyurethane, polyvinyl alcohol, polyolefin, polyvinyl chloride, polyimide, and the like. Examples of the material of the metal foil include aluminum, copper, silver, gold, palladium, and alloys containing these metals.

The multilayer laminated film in which the metal layer and the dielectric layer are formed on the resin film is a multilayer laminated film in which the metal layer and the dielectric layer are alternately laminated on the resin film in an arbitrary number of layers. Examples of the material of the resin film in the multilayer laminated film include polyamides such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polylactic acid, poly (4-methylpentene-1), poly (1, 1-difluoroethylene), cyclic polyolefin, polymethyl methacrylate, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl alcohol, nylon 6, 11, 12, and 66, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, polyester, polyphenylene sulfide, and polyether imide.

Examples of the material of the metal layer in the multilayer laminated film include the material of the metal foil in the metal foil-attached resin filmThe same material. A coating of a metal or mixed oxide may be applied to both or one side of the metal layer. Examples of the material of the coating layer include ZnO and Al₂O₃、Ga₂O₃、InO₃MgO, Ti, NiCr and Cu, etc. Further, as a material of the dielectric layer in the multilayer laminated film, for example, indium oxide and the like can be given.

The multilayer resin film is a laminate film in which a plurality of resin films are laminated. The multilayer resin film may be made of the same material as that of the resin film in the multilayer laminated film. The number of resin films stacked in the multilayer resin film is 2 or more, and may be 3 or more, and may be 5 or more. The number of resin films stacked in the multilayer resin film may be 1000 or less, 100 or less, or 50 or less.

The multilayer resin film may be one in which 2 or more thermoplastic resin layers having different optical properties (refractive index) are alternately or randomly stacked in an arbitrary number of layers. Such a multilayer resin film is configured to obtain desired infrared reflection performance.

Examples of the liquid crystal film include a film in which cholesteric liquid crystal layers that reflect light of arbitrary wavelengths are stacked in arbitrary number of layers. Such a liquid crystal film is configured to obtain desired infrared reflection performance.

As one of the infrared reflective particles used in the infrared reflective layer, plate particles having a thickness of micro to nano-order are exemplified. For example, a substance having infrared-reflecting properties can be obtained by controlling the thickness, area, and arrangement state of silver nanoplate particles in a resin film in which the particles are dispersed.

Among the above, the infrared-reflecting layer is preferably a metal foil-attached resin film, a multilayer laminate film, a multilayer resin film, or a liquid crystal film. These films are more excellent in infrared ray reflection performance. Therefore, by using these films, the values of the average transmittance TA, the average transmittances T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be made smaller, and the values of Tts and Tds (1.5) can be easily adjusted to fall within the desired ranges.

Among the above, a metal foil-attached resin film and a multilayer resin film are more preferable, and a multilayer resin film is further preferable. The multilayer resin film has excellent infrared reflection properties mainly in the wavelength region of 900 to 1100 nm. Therefore, the average transmittances T1 and T2, and TA and TB can be made small.

The thickness of the infrared-reflective layer is preferably 0.01mm or more, more preferably 0.04mm or more, further preferably 0.07mm or more, and furthermore preferably 0.3mm or less, more preferably 0.2mm or less, further preferably 0.18mm or less, and particularly preferably 0.16mm or less. When the thickness of the infrared reflective layer is not less than the lower limit, the values of the average transmittance TA, the average transmittances T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be made small, and the heat shielding property can be improved. Further, if the thickness of the infrared reflective layer is not more than the above upper limit, the transparency of the laminated glass becomes high, and the visible light transmittance (Tv) tends to be high.

[ glass plate ]

The glass plate used for the laminated glass may be either inorganic glass or organic glass, but is preferably inorganic glass. The inorganic glass is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include transparent glass, float glass, polished glass, patterned glass, wired glass, and green glass.

In addition, as the organic glass, what is called plexiglass is generally used, and there are no particular limitations on the organic glass, and examples thereof include organic glass made of a resin such as polycarbonate, acrylic resin, acrylic copolymer resin, or polyester.

The 1 st glass plate and the 2 nd glass plate used for the laminated glass may be made of the same material as each other or may be made of different materials. For example, one may be inorganic glass and the other organic glass, but preferably both the 1 st and 2 nd glass plates are inorganic glass or organic glass.

The thickness of each of the 1 st glass plate and the 2 nd glass plate is not particularly limited, and is, for example, about 0.1 to 15mm, preferably 0.5 to 5 mm. The thicknesses of the respective glass plates may be the same or different from each other, but are preferably the same.

[ layer constitution ]

The laminated structure of the laminated glass of the present invention is shown in fig. 1 to 3. As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the laminated glass 20 includes a 1 st glass plate 21 and a 2 nd glass plate 22, and an interlayer 10 disposed between the 1 st glass plate 21 and the 2 nd glass plate 22, and the 1 st glass plate 21 and the 2 nd glass plate 22 are bonded to each other through the interlayer 10. In addition, when the laminated glass 20 is installed in a vehicle such as an automobile, the 1 st glass plate 21 is disposed on the vehicle exterior side, and the 2 nd glass plate 22 is disposed on the vehicle interior side.

The interlayer film 10 may be formed of a single resin layer 11 as shown in fig. 1. When the interlayer film 10 is formed of a single resin layer 11, the single resin layer 11 is preferably a layer containing an absorbent.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the interlayer film 10 preferably has a plurality of resin layers, for example, a 1 st resin layer 11A on the 1 st glass plate 21 side (i.e., one surface side) and a 2 nd resin layer 11B on the 2 nd glass plate 22 side (i.e., the other surface side). In this case, as shown in fig. 3, the 1 st resin layer 11A disposed on one surface side, the 2 nd resin layer 11B disposed on the other surface side, and the infrared reflective layer 13 provided between the 1 st resin layer and the 2 nd resin layer may be provided, but as shown in fig. 2, the infrared reflective layer may not be provided. However, the infrared-reflective layer 13 is preferably provided in order to reduce the average transmittance TA, the average transmittances T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB.

As described above, in the case of having the 1 st resin layer 11A and the 2 nd resin layer 11B, it is preferable that either the 1 st resin layer 11A or the 2 nd resin layer 11B is a layer containing an absorbent, but from the viewpoint of effectively reducing Tts, it is preferable that at least the 2 nd resin layer 11A has an infrared absorbent and is a layer containing an absorbent. This results in a laminated glass having excellent heat-insulating properties while reducing the average transmittance TA, the average transmittances T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB.

To describe in more detail, when the intermediate film 10 is formed of a single resin layer 11 without providing an infrared-reflective layer as shown in fig. 1, the single resin layer 11 serves as a layer containing an absorbent, and thus the average transmittance TA, the average transmittances T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be made small with a relatively simple configuration. When the resin layer 11 is a layer containing an absorbent, it is preferable that at least one of the 1 st infrared absorbent and the heat-shielding particles is contained in the resin layer 11. Thus, the infrared rays of 900 to 1300nm are sufficiently absorbed by the absorbent-containing layer (resin layer 11), and the average transmittance TA, the average transmittance T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be set to a desired range. More preferably, the insulating particles are CWO particles.

The content of the infrared absorber in the absorber-containing layer constituting the resin layer 11 is, for example, 0.005 mass% or more and 0.6 mass% or less, preferably 0.01 mass% or more and 0.4 mass% or less, and more preferably 0.015 mass% or more and 0.2 mass% or less.

The content of the 1 st infrared absorber in the absorber-containing layer constituting the resin layer 11 is preferably 0.001 mass% or more and 0.3 mass% or less, more preferably 0.003 mass% or more and 0.1 mass% or less, and further preferably 0.005 mass% or more and 0.05 mass% or less.

The content of the heat insulating particles in the absorbent-containing layer constituting the resin layer 11 is preferably 0.005 mass% or more and 0.5 mass% or less, more preferably 0.02 mass% or more and 0.3 mass% or less, and further preferably 0.06 mass% or more and 0.2 mass% or less.

On the other hand, as shown in fig. 3, in the laminated glass 20 provided with the infrared-ray reflective layer 13, both the 1 st resin layer 11A and the 2 nd resin layer 11B may not be a layer containing an absorbent, but at least one of the 1 st resin layer 11A and the 2 nd resin layer 11B is preferably a layer containing an absorbent. By providing both the infrared-ray reflective layer 13 and the absorbent-containing layer in the laminated glass 20, the average transmittance TA, the average transmittances T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be further reduced by reflection of infrared rays by the infrared-ray reflective layer 13 and absorption of infrared rays by the absorbent-containing layer.

Among them, it is more preferable that the 2 nd resin layer 11A is a layer containing an absorbent, or that both the 1 st resin layer 11A and the 2 nd resin layer 11B are layers containing an absorbent. With such a configuration, Tts can be reduced while the average transmittance TA, the average transmittance T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB are set within desired ranges, and the heat insulating property can be improved.

When the 1 st resin layer 11A is an absorbent-containing layer, the absorbent-containing layer is described in detail above, but it is particularly preferable that the 1 st infrared absorbent is contained in the absorbent-containing layer (the 1 st resin layer 11A). Since the 1 st infrared absorbent is contained in the 1 st resin layer 11A, the 1 st resin layer 11A sufficiently absorbs the 900 to 1300nm infrared rays, and the average transmittance TA, the average transmittance T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB can be made small.

Further, when the absorbent-containing layer constituting the 1 st resin layer 11A contains the 1 st infrared absorbent, it is preferable that the heat insulating particles are contained in addition to the 1 st infrared absorbent.

The content of the infrared absorber in the absorber-containing layer constituting the 1 st resin layer 11A is, for example, 0.005 mass% or more and 3 mass% or less, preferably 0.01 mass% or more and 1.0 mass% or less, and more preferably 0.02 mass% or more and 0.8 mass% or less.

The content of the 1 st infrared absorber in the 1 st resin layer 11A is preferably 0.005 mass% or more and 0.3 mass% or less, more preferably 0.01 mass% or more and 0.2 mass% or less, and further preferably 0.015 mass% or more and 0.1 mass% or less. When the content of the 1 st infrared absorber is in the above range, the average transmittance T at each wavelength is easily reduced.

When the 1 st resin layer 11A contains the heat insulating particles, the content of the heat insulating particles in the absorbent-containing layer constituting the 1 st resin layer 11A is preferably 0.005 mass% or more and 2.0 mass% or less, more preferably 0.01 mass% or more and 0.8 mass% or less, and further preferably 0.015 mass% or more and 0.6 mass% or less. When the content of the heat insulating particles is in these ranges, the average transmittance T at each wavelength is easily reduced.

Further, in the case where the absorbent-containing layer constituting the 1 st resin layer 11A contains both the 1 st infrared absorbent and the heat-insulating particles, the mass ratio of the heat-insulating particles to the 1 st infrared absorbent (heat-insulating particles/1 st infrared absorbent) is preferably 0.1 or more and 30 or less, more preferably 0.5 or more and 25 or less, and further preferably 1 or more and 25 or less.

The heat insulating particles used in the 1 st resin layer 11A are more preferably CWO particles. Since CWO particles have a high shielding rate against infrared rays of 900 to 1300nm, the average transmittance in the present invention is more likely to be reduced by including CWO particles in the 1 st resin layer 11A.

In the case where the infrared-reflective layer 13 is provided as shown in fig. 3, the configuration in which the 2 nd resin layer 11B is a layer containing an absorbent is preferable. In each of the above embodiments, the absorbent-containing layer constituting the 2 nd resin layer 11B preferably contains heat insulating particles as an infrared absorbent. By using the heat insulating particles, the heat rays incident from the outside are absorbed, and the temperature rise in the vehicle interior can also be prevented.

The content of the infrared absorber in the absorber-containing layer (the 2 nd resin layer 11B) is, for example, 0.005 mass% or more and 1.5 mass% or less, preferably 0.01 mass% or more and 1.2 mass% or less, and more preferably 0.015 mass% or more and 1.0 mass% or less.

The content of the heat insulating particles in the 2 nd resin layer 11B is preferably 0.005 mass% or more and 1.4 mass% or less, more preferably 0.01 mass% or more and 1.0 mass% or less, and further preferably 0.1 mass% or more and 0.9 mass% or less. When the content of the heat-insulating particles is in the above range, the average transmittance at each wavelength is easily lowered. Further, the heat ray incident from the outside is sufficiently absorbed, and the temperature rise in the vehicle interior is easily prevented.

Further, in the case where the absorbent-containing layer constituting the 2 nd resin layer 11B contains both the 1 st infrared absorbent and the heat-insulating particles, the mass ratio of the heat-insulating particles to the 1 st infrared absorbent (heat-insulating particles/1 st infrared absorbent) is preferably 0.1 or more and 30 or less, more preferably 1 or more and 25 or less, and further preferably 3 or more and 25 or less.

The heat insulating particles used in the 2 nd resin layer 11B are more preferably CWO particles. Among the heat insulating particles, CWO particles have a high shielding rate against infrared rays of 900 to 1300nm, and therefore, the average transmittance in the present invention is more likely to be reduced by including CWO particles in the 2 nd resin layer 11B.

In the above-described configuration in which the interlayer film 10 has a plurality of resin layers, the configuration in which the 1 st resin layer 11A and the 2 nd resin layer 11B are provided as resin layers has been described as a representative example, but the configuration of the interlayer film 10 is not limited to the above configuration. For example, in the configuration shown in fig. 2, a resin layer may be further provided between the 1 st resin layer 11A and the 2 nd resin layer 11B, or a resin layer may be provided between the 1 st resin layer 11A and the 1 st glass plate 21, and between the 2 nd resin layer 11B and the 2 nd glass plate 22.

In the configuration having the infrared-reflective layer as shown in fig. 3, a resin layer may be further provided between the 1 st resin layer 11A and the infrared-reflective layer 13, between the 2 nd resin layer 11B and the infrared-reflective layer 13, between the 1 st resin layer 11A and the 1 st glass plate 21, or between the 2 nd resin layer 11B and the 2 nd glass plate 22.

When a resin layer is provided in addition to the 1 st resin layer and the 2 nd resin layer, various functions can be added to the resin layer (also referred to as the 3 rd resin layer). For example, the light-emitting interlayer may be formed by including light-emitting particles that emit light by irradiation with excitation light in the 3 rd resin layer. The thermoplastic resin used for the 3 rd resin layer may be a polyvinyl acetal resin, and the amount of hydroxyl groups and the amount of plasticizer may be appropriately adjusted to form a so-called sound-insulating layer.

The thickness of the intermediate film is preferably 0.2mm or more and 1.8mm or less, more preferably 0.25mm or more and 1.0mm or less, and still more preferably 0.3mm or more and 0.9mm or less.

In addition, as for the thickness of the resin layer constituting the interlayer film, when the resin layer (i.e., the absorbent-containing layer) is composed of 1 monolayer, the thickness of the resin layer is preferably 0.2mm or more and 1.5mm or less, more preferably 0.25mm or more and 1.0mm or less, and further preferably 0.3mm or more and 0.9mm or less, as in the case of the interlayer film.

In the case where the intermediate film has a tapered shape as described later, the thickness varies, but both the minimum thickness and the maximum thickness of the variation preferably fall within the above ranges. The same applies to the other layers.

In the case where the resin layer constituting the interlayer film is composed of a plurality of layers, the thickness of each resin layer may be appropriately adjusted so that the thickness of the interlayer film falls within the above range. For example, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, when the resin layers are formed of 2 layers, the thickness of each resin layer is preferably 0.05mm or more and 1.5mm or less, more preferably 0.15mm or more and 1mm or less, and still more preferably 0.25mm or more and 0.6mm or less. When the thickness of the resin layer is not less than the lower limit, infrared rays can be appropriately absorbed in the case where the resin layer is a layer containing an absorbent, for example, and the average transmittance at each wavelength can be easily reduced. In addition, when the heat insulating particles are contained, a sufficient heat insulating effect can be obtained. On the other hand, by being equal to or less than the upper limit value, the visible light transmittance (Tv) and the like can be made high.

The interlayer film has a rectangular cross section as shown in fig. 1 to 3, but is not limited to a rectangular cross section and may have a wedge shape, for example. As shown in fig. 4 to 6, the intermediate film 30 having the wedge shape has one end 30A and the other end 30B opposite to the one end 30A, the thickness of the other end 30B is larger than that of the one end 30A, and the entire intermediate film 30 has the wedge shape.

With respect to the wedge-shaped interlayer film 30, for example, the resulting laminated glass 20 can be used in a head-up display system.

The wedge-shaped intermediate film 30 may have a trapezoidal shape as shown in fig. 4, for example, but may have a triangular shape. The wedge-shaped intermediate film 30 changes in thickness from the other end 30A toward the one end 30B, but does not necessarily change in thickness over the entire portion, and may have a constant thickness portion 30C and a portion of the portion that changes in thickness as shown in fig. 5.

Further, although the increase in thickness is constant from the one end 30A toward the other end 30B in the portion where the thickness changes in fig. 4 and 5, the increase in thickness is not necessarily constant, and may gradually change as shown in fig. 6, for example, to be a curve in the cross section.

As shown in fig. 4 and 5, when the increase in thickness is constant, the wedge angle θ is also constant. Therefore, the inclination angle of the other surface 30Y with respect to the one surface 30X of the intermediate film 30 becomes the wedge angle θ.

On the other hand, as shown in fig. 6, when the increase amount of the thickness is changed, the wedge angle θ is as follows. That is, the wedge angle θ is an internal angle at an intersection of a straight line L1 connecting the closest portion of the maximum thickness portion 30M and the minimum thickness portion 30S in the intermediate film 30 on the one surface 30X of the intermediate film 30 and a straight line L2 connecting the closest portion of the maximum thickness portion 30M and the minimum thickness portion 30S on the other surface 30Y.

The wedge angle θ is preferably 0.1mrad or more, more preferably 0.2mrad or more, further preferably 0.3mrad or more, and further preferably 1mrad or less, further preferably 0.9mrad or less. By making the wedge angle θ within these ranges, it is easy to image an image from the head-up display device at 1 point through the laminated glass.

In the case where the intermediate film has a wedge-shaped and multilayer structure, the cross-sectional shape of each layer may be appropriately adjusted so that the intermediate film has a wedge-shaped shape, and for example, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, when a plurality of resin layers are provided, the thickness of at least 1 resin layer of the plurality of resin layers may be adjusted so as to increase from one end to the other end.

The optical properties of the laminated glass may vary depending on the region, for example, when the interlayer film has a wedge shape. In such a case, the optical characteristics such as TA, T1 to T4, TB, visible light transmittance, Tts, Tds (1.5) and the like may be such that the entire region of the laminated glass satisfies the respective requirements described above, but some regions may satisfy the respective requirements. For example, when an infrared monitoring system is introduced, the optical characteristics in a region where external light applied to a driver or the like as a monitoring target enters, a region where light from a light source is reflected, or the like may satisfy the above-described requirements.

(production method)

In the production of the laminated glass, for example, each layer (a resin layer, an infrared-reflecting layer, and the like) constituting an interlayer film is laminated between 2 glass plates, and thermocompression bonding or the like is performed.

In addition, the resin layer constituting the intermediate film is preferably formed by first preparing a resin composition containing a thermoplastic resin, and if necessary, a plasticizer, an infrared absorber, other additives, and other materials constituting the resin layer, and then molding the resin composition by extrusion molding, press molding, or the like. In the case where there are a plurality of resin layers, for example, a method of preparing 2 or more extruders and attaching a multi-layer feed block to the tips of the extruders to perform co-extrusion may be employed. The laminated glass can be produced by disposing an interlayer film having a single-layer or multilayer structure formed by extrusion molding such as co-extrusion, thermal lamination, press molding, or the like between 2 glass plates, and performing thermocompression bonding or the like.

[ method of Using laminated glass ]

The laminated glass of the present invention is used, for example, as a window glass, and more specifically, is preferably used in various vehicles such as automobiles, electric trains, ships, and aircrafts, more preferably used in vehicle window glass such as automobiles and electric trains, and further preferably used as a window glass for automobiles.

(Infrared ray monitoring system)

The laminated glass of the present invention is mounted as a window glass on a vehicle equipped with an infrared monitoring system, for example. The system of the entire vehicle equipped with the infrared monitoring system is referred to as a vehicle system. Here, the vehicle is preferably an automobile, and in this case, the vehicle body is an automobile body, and the window glass is a window glass that closes an opening of the automobile body. The laminated glass of the present invention may be any of a front glass, a side glass, and a rear glass.

An infrared monitoring system (i.e., a vehicle system) includes a light source and a light receiving mechanism, which are provided inside a vehicle body. An infrared monitoring system is a system for monitoring an occupant, particularly preferably a driver. The infrared monitoring system irradiates an occupant, preferably a driver (observed object), with infrared light emitted from a light source disposed inside a vehicle body, receives the infrared light reflected by the observed object by a light receiving mechanism provided inside the vehicle body, and detects the state of the occupant (observed object) based on the received light.

The light source is an infrared light source emitting infrared rays, and the maximum light emission wavelength of the light source is preferably 900 to 1300 nm. The infrared rays of 900 to 1300nm are not recognized by human eyes, but are easily reflected by human skin and the like, and are suitable for monitoring passengers such as a driver. On the other hand, as described above, the laminated glass sufficiently shields the infrared rays of 900 to 1300nm incident from the outside of the vehicle, with any of the average transmittance TA, the average transmittance T1 to T4, and the average transmittance TB being 15% or less. Therefore, the infrared monitoring system prevents the 900 to 1300nm infrared rays incident from the outside of the vehicle from becoming noise by adjusting the maximum emission wavelength of the infrared light source within the above range.

More specifically, as described above, the maximum emission wavelength of the light source is preferably in the wavelength region where the average transmittance T1 to T4 is 15% or less, and may be selected so that the average transmittance TB is 15% or less. Further, the infrared light source is preferably an LED. By using the LED, the emission wavelength region can be made relatively narrow, and thus the monitoring accuracy can be easily improved.

The light receiving means used in the vehicle system is preferably an imaging device such as an infrared camera, and receives reflected light from an object to be observed (such as a driver) to image the object to be observed. The vehicle system may detect the state of the observed object using the image captured by the imaging device. Specifically, it is preferable that the state of the object to be observed is detected by irradiating the face of the driver with infrared rays and capturing an image of the face of the driver with an imaging device.

However, the light receiving means need not be an imaging device, and may be a light receiving sensor or the like that detects only the intensity of received light. Even when the light receiving sensor is used, whether or not the occupant is seated at a predetermined position (for example, whether or not the driver is seated in the driver seat) or the like can be detected by the intensity of the reflected light.

The vehicle system preferably includes a face recognition system that recognizes a face using a face image of the observed body, and detects the state of the observed body using the recognized face. More specifically, the face recognition system detects the position of an eyelid in a face image by using a face template stored in advance and a captured face image, and detects the state of the eyelid, thereby detecting whether or not it is drowsy. The face recognition system is configured by various processors such as a DSP and a CPU.

In the infrared monitoring system, it is preferable that infrared rays emitted from the light source are reflected by the laminated glass of the present invention and then irradiated to the object to be observed. Further, it is preferable that the light reflected from the object to be observed is reflected by the laminated glass of the present invention and then received by the light receiving means.

When the vehicle is an automobile, at least the front glass is preferably the laminated glass of the present invention, and more preferably all of the front glass, the side glass, and the rear glass are the laminated glass of the present invention.

The infrared monitoring system is preferably used for monitoring the driver. Therefore, by using the laminated glass of the present invention as the windshield, infrared rays included in external light are less likely to be irradiated to the driver, and noise can be reduced easily. Further, if the windshield is the laminated glass of the present invention, the reflectance is high when infrared rays emitted from the light source are reflected by the windshield and irradiated to the driver, or when reflected light from the driver is reflected by the windshield and received by the light receiving means, and therefore, the monitoring can be performed with high accuracy.

Further, if the windshield is the laminated glass of the present invention, the reflected light from the driver is reflected by the windshield and received by the light receiving means, so that the reflected light from the front surface of the face can be received by the light receiving means. Therefore, the state of the face can be monitored, and the monitoring accuracy is further improved.

Further, if the side window glass and the rear window glass are all the laminated glass of the present invention except the front window glass, it is easier to reduce noise.

Fig. 7 shows a vehicle system according to a preferred embodiment. A vehicle system according to a preferred embodiment will be described in more detail with reference to fig. 7. As shown in fig. 7, a vehicle system 50 of the present embodiment includes a laminated glass 20, a light source 51 that emits infrared light, and a light receiving mechanism 52.

Here, the vehicle system 50 is a system installed in an automobile, and the laminated glass 20 constitutes a windshield of the automobile. The light receiving mechanism 52 is an imaging device including an infrared camera or the like, and the light source 51 and the light receiving mechanism 52 are provided on an instrument panel 53 of the automobile. The vehicle system 50 also includes a face recognition system 54. The face recognition system 54 is constructed, for example, by a processor, as described above. The processor is provided in, for example, the dashboard 53.

In the present embodiment, the light source 51 irradiates the face DF of the driver after the emitted infrared rays UR are reflected by the laminated glass 20 (windshield glass). The infrared rays UR reflected by the driver's face DF are reflected by the laminated glass 20 as reflected light RL, and are received by the light receiving means 52.

Here, the light source 51 is adjusted so as to irradiate the infrared rays UR to the upper side of the driver's seat, but may have a configuration in which the emission direction and the emission position can be changed so as to reliably irradiate the infrared rays UR to the face DF of the driver. Similarly, the light receiving mechanism 52 is adjusted so as to be able to capture an image of the upper side of the driver's seat, but may have a configuration in which the light receiving position and the light receiving direction can be appropriately adjusted, similarly to the light source 51.

Since the light receiving mechanism 52 is an imaging device as described above, the face of the driver is imaged, and the face recognition system 54 recognizes the face of the driver based on the captured face image, for example, detects whether the eyelids are closed.

The optical path centers of the infrared rays UR and the reflected light RL are preferably incident obliquely to the surface of the laminated glass 20 (the surface of the 2 nd glass plate). The incident angle is not particularly limited, but is 20 to 80 degrees, preferably 40 to 70 degrees.

According to the vehicle system of the present embodiment, as described above, the driver can be appropriately monitored by using the laminated glass of the present invention for the windshield glass. Further, the automobile further includes side window glass and rear window glass, and in order to perform monitoring with higher accuracy, it is preferable that these side window glass and rear window glass of the vehicle system of the present embodiment are also constituted by the laminated glass of the present invention described above.

The vehicle system according to the present embodiment described above is an example of a vehicle system, and various modifications can be made as long as the effects of the present invention are exhibited.

Examples

The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

In the present invention, the methods for measuring various physical properties and the methods for evaluating a laminated glass are as follows.

(visible light transmittance (Tv))

The visible light transmittance (Tv) of the laminated glass was measured according to JIS R3212(2015) using a spectrophotometer ("U-4100" manufactured by hitachi ハイテクノロジー). In the measurement, in order to receive only the parallel light having passed through the laminated glass by the integrating sphere, the laminated glass was disposed at a position 13cm away from the integrating sphere so as to be parallel to the normal line of the optical axis on the optical path between the light source and the integrating sphere, and the spectral transmittance was measured. The visible light transmittance was calculated from the obtained spectral transmittance. The measurement conditions were such that the scanning speed was set to 300nm/min and the slit width was set to 8nm, and the other conditions were measured in accordance with JIS R3212 (2015).

(Tds(1.5))

The solar transmittance Tds (1.5) of the laminated glass was measured using a spectrophotometer ("U-4100" manufactured by hitachi ハイテクノロジー) in accordance with ISO 13837 (2008). In the measurement, in order to receive only the parallel light having passed through the laminated glass by the integrating sphere, the laminated glass was disposed at a position 13cm away from the integrating sphere so as to be parallel to the normal line of the optical axis on the optical path between the light source and the integrating sphere, and the spectral transmittance was measured. The solar transmittance Tds (1.5) of the laminated glass for light having a wavelength of 300 to 2500nm is determined from the obtained spectral transmittance. The measurement conditions were such that the scanning speed was set to 300nm/min and the slit width was set to 8nm, and the other conditions were measured in accordance with ISO 13837 (2008).

(Tts)

Tts was calculated by measuring the transmittance/reflectance of light having a wavelength of 300 to 2500nm using a spectrophotometer ("U-4100" manufactured by Hitachi ハイテク) in accordance with ISO 13837 (2008). The measurement conditions were carried out under the conditions of a scanning speed of 300nm/min and a slit width of 8nm, and the other conditions were measured in accordance with ISO 13837 (2008).

As shown in fig. 8, a virtual infrared monitoring system is assembled. Specifically, the laminated glasses 20 obtained in each of the examples and comparative examples were prepared and arranged with an inclination of 45 ° with respect to the horizontal direction. A subject assumed to be a driver is disposed so as to face the laminated glass.

An LED lamp was prepared as the light source 51, and an infrared camera was prepared as the light receiving mechanism 52. These are disposed below the laminated glass 20 and are irradiated from the light source 51 to the face DF of the subject. The reflected light from the face DF of the subject is received by the infrared camera to photograph a moving image. The video was photographed under an environment in which a pseudo-sunlight (product of セリック, XC-500E) was irradiated onto one surface of the laminated glass.

The obtained observation video was evaluated by the following evaluation criteria.

(production of laminated glass)

The 1 st glass, the 1 st resin layer, the infrared reflection layer, the 2 nd resin layer, and the 2 nd glass are laminated in this order, and temporary pressure bonding is performed by a vacuum bag method. The temporarily pressure-bonded laminate was held in an autoclave at 140 ℃ and 1.3MPa for 10 minutes, and then the temperature was lowered to 50 ℃ and returned to atmospheric pressure to complete the main pressure bonding, thereby obtaining a laminated glass. The laminated glass is composed of layers of a 1 st glass plate/a 1 st resin layer/an infrared reflecting layer/a 2 nd resin layer/a 2 nd glass plate.

(production of laminated glass)

The 1 st glass, the resin layer, and the 2 nd glass were stacked in this order, and temporary pressure bonding was performed by a vacuum bag method. The temporarily pressure-bonded laminate was held in an autoclave at 140 ℃ and 1.3MPa for 10 minutes, and then the temperature was lowered to 50 ℃ and returned to atmospheric pressure to complete the main pressure bonding, thereby obtaining a laminated glass. The laminated glass is composed of layers of a 1 st glass plate/a resin layer/a 2 nd glass plate.

Examples 4 to 6 and comparative examples 1 to 4

The procedure was carried out in the same manner as in example 3, except that the compounding of the resin layer was changed as shown in table 1.

As in the above-described examples, if the average transmittance T of light in each wavelength region is set to 15% or less, infrared monitoring can be appropriately performed if infrared monitoring is performed using a light source having the maximum emission wavelength in the wavelength region.

On the other hand, as shown in the comparative example, if the average transmittance T of light in each wavelength region is large, if infrared monitoring is performed using a light source having the maximum emission wavelength in the wavelength region, monitoring cannot be performed appropriately.
