Title: Resin composition for forming optical component, molded product, and optical component

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present invention relates to a resin composition for forming an optical component, a molded product, and an optical component. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     In recent years, utilization of 3D sensors or distance measuring sensors, which measure the shape or distance of an object, has been expanding as those sensors are being installed in smartphones and automobiles. These devices utilize near-infrared light, and visible light is detected as noise. Therefore, it is indispensable for these devices to have optical components that shield visible light and selectively transmit near-infrared light. 
     Conventionally, visible light cutoff filters have been widely used as such an optical component. A visible light cutoff filter is generally an optical component manufactured by laminating 10 or more layers of a dielectric substance having a predetermined thickness on a glass substrate, and is installed between a lens and a sensor. However, there is a problem that the manufacturing process is complicated and costly. Thus, for example, as described in Patent Document 1, a method of conveniently producing a visible light cutoff filter by applying a light-absorbing layer on a resin substrate has been proposed.

     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

     DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS 
     Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. 
     In the present specification, the notation “a to b” in the description of a numerical value range indicates that the range is equal to or more than a and equal to or less than b, unless particularly stated otherwise. For example, “1 to 5% by mass” means “equal to or more than 1% by mass and equal to or less than 5% by mass”. 
     A resin composition for forming an optical component according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes a cyclic olefin-based polymer and an anthraquinone-based dye. Furthermore, the cyclic olefin-based polymer according to the present embodiment includes at least one selected from a copolymer of ethylene or an α-olefin and a cyclic olefin, and a ring-opening polymer of a cyclic olefin.

     Furthermore, according to the resin composition for forming an optical component according to the present embodiment, a molded product having a higher refractive index than that of a conventional one. Therefore, for example, when a molded product formed from the resin composition for forming an optical component according to the present embodiment is used as a lens, the thickness of the lens can be reduced, and space saving and weight reduction can be promoted. 
     Furthermore, according to an investigation conducted by the inventors of the present invention, it was found that in the related art, with regard to a resin composition for forming an optical component, when an attempt is made to impart near-infrared selective transmission characteristics to the resin composition for forming an optical component and a molded product formed from the resin composition for forming an optical component, color unevenness may occur in the resin composition for forming an optical component or the molded product; however, according to the present invention, color unevenness occurring in the resin composition for forming an optical component and the molded product can be suppressed. 
     Furthermore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a resin composition for forming an optical component, the resin composition making it possible to obtain an optical component which has excellent heat resistance, moist heat resistance, and ultraviolet resistance in addition to the above-mentioned effects, and in which a decrease in a visible light shielding effect and a decrease in the near-infrared transmittance are suppressed.

     The cyclic olefin represented by the above-described Formula [I], [II], or [III], can be manufactured by subjecting olefins having a structure corresponding to cyclopentadiene to a Diels-Alder reaction.

     Since the resin composition for forming an optical component according to the present embodiment is a resin composition for forming an optical component which can sufficiently cut noise by adjusting the visible light shielding properties and the near-infrared light transmissibility to be in the above-described value range and can give an optical component capable of sufficiently transmitting near-infrared light associated with sensors, for example, the optical component can be suitably used as a 3D sensor or a distance measuring sensor for measuring the shape of an object or the distance. 
     The transmittance of the resin composition for forming an optical component according to the present embodiment at each wavelength can be determined as follows. 
     First, for example, a square plate-shaped molded product formed from the resin composition for forming an optical component according to the present embodiment and having a thickness of 1 mm is obtained by injection molding. Here, the molding conditions can be set to a cylinder temperature of 275° C. and a back pressure of 3 MPa in an air atmosphere. The obtained square plate having a thickness of 1 mm is used as a sample, and transmittance is measured using an ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared spectrophotometer (for example, ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared spectrophotometer U-4150 (manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Corporation)), at a wavelength of from 300 nm to 600 nm at an increment of 1 nm and at a wavelength of from 850 nm to 1000 nm at an increment of 1 nm. The average value of transmittance at a wavelength of 850 to 1000 nm means an arithmetic mean value of transmittance measured at a wavelength of from 850 nm to 1000 nm at an increment of 1 nm, and the transmittance at a wavelength of 300 to 600 nm represents an arithmetic mean value of transmittance measured at a wavelength of 300 nm to 600 nm at an increment of 1 nm.

     Since the resin composition for forming an optical component according to the present embodiment can give a molded product having a higher refractive index than the conventional resin compositions for forming optical components, for example, when a molded product formed from the resin composition for forming an optical component according to the present embodiment is used as a lens, the thickness of the lens can be reduced. 
     The refractive index at a wavelength of 830 nm of a molded product formed from the resin composition for forming an optical component and the refractive index at a wavelength of 830 nm of a molded product formed from the cyclic olefin-based polymer can be determined by the following method.

Here, the molding conditions can be set to a cylinder temperature of 275° C. and a back pressure of 3 MPa in an air atmosphere. The obtained square plates having a thickness of 3 mm are used as samples, and the refractive index at a wavelength of 830 nm is measured at a measurement temperature of 25° C. using a refractometer (for example, refractometer KPR-3000 (manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation)).

     As described above, the molded bodies obtained in the Examples had high visible light shielding properties and high near-infrared transmissibility while having an excellent effect of increasing the refractive index of a molded product as compared to Comparative Example 1 to which no dye was added. On the other hand, a molded product obtained in the Comparative Example that did not include an anthraquinone-based dye was inferior to the molded bodies obtained in the Examples in view of the visible light shielding properties, the near-infrared transmissibility, and the refractive index increasing effect. 
     Furthermore, the molded bodies obtained in the Examples are excellent in terms of heat resistance, moist heat resistance, and ultraviolet resistance in a well-balanced manner as compared to the Comparative Examples, and the decrease in the visible light shielding effect and the decrease in the near-infrared transmittance were suppressed.
