- these modified proteins have higher water absorption than other modified proteins. Therefore, powdered adhesives and powdered coatings containing such modified proteins have relatively high moisture contents. Therefore, the heating temperature and amount of pressure required for resinizing (solidifying) the resin while placed on the surface of the adherend or the surface of the base material can be made as low as possible.
- powder adhesive or powder coating agent containing the above-mentioned modified protein is expected to have the advantage of advantageously simplifying the adhesion operation to an adherend or base material.
- Powdered adhesives and powdered coatings may contain ingredients other than modified proteins, such as various additives contained in known powdered adhesives and powdered coatings, as necessary. Good too.
- Powdered adhesives containing modified proteins are also used to produce adhesive bodies in which multiple adherends are adhered to each other. For example, by interposing the powder adhesive between a plurality of adherends to be bonded, the powder adhesive is heated and pressurized through the adherends to solidify the adhesive. A bonded body can be obtained by bonding the attached bodies together. According to such a method, since a bonded body can be obtained using a biodegradable adhesive, there is an advantage that a bonded body that can reduce the environmental load at the time of disposal can be easily produced.
- the adherend may be anything that can be adhered with a powdered adhesive containing a modified protein; for example, it may be similar to an adherend that can be adhered with a solution-based adhesive containing a modified protein. It's okay.
- the specific method for manufacturing the adhesive body using the powdered adhesive is not limited in any way.
- the adherends are sandwiched between metal plates or the like from both sides opposite to the adherend side.
- the powdered adhesive interposed between the adherends is heated together with the adherends.
- the metal plate is pressed using a hand press or the like, and the powdered adhesive is pressed for a predetermined period of time through the adherend.
- the powdered adhesive is turned into a resin, solidified, and adhered to the adherend.
- the heating temperature, amount of pressure, and heating/pressing time when solidifying the powdered adhesive are within the range that can convert the modified protein into a resin, depending on the type of modified protein contained in the powdered adhesive. Appropriate selection is made from among them.
- a powder coating agent containing a modified protein is also used to produce a laminate in which a coating layer is formed on the entire or part of the surface of a base material. For example, by heating the powder coating agent with the powder coating agent placed on at least a portion of the surface of the base material and applying pressure between the pressurizing body and the base material to solidify the powder coating agent, A coating layer is laminated on at least a portion of the surface of the base material.
- the specific method for manufacturing the laminate using the powder coating agent is not limited in any way.
- a metal plate or the like is placed to cover the entire powder adhesive placed on the surface of the base material, and the metal plate is heated to heat the powder adhesive.
- the powdered adhesive is pressed between the metal plate and the base material using a hand press or the like for a predetermined period of time, thereby converting the powdered coating into a resin and solidifying it.
- the heating temperature, amount of pressure, or heating/pressing time of the powder coating agent is the same as when obtaining a bonded body using the powder adhesive.

タンパク質は、天然のタンパク質であっても、人工タンパク質であってもよい。例えば、所望の用途に求められる物性に近い物性を有するタンパク質を採用することができる。また、タンパク質としては、工業用に利用できるタンパク質、医療用に利用できるタンパク質等を挙げることができる。工業用に利用可能とは、例えば、屋内や屋外で使用される様々な汎用材料等に利用し得ることをいう。工業用に利用できるタンパク質の具体例としては、構造タンパク質を挙げることができる。また、構造タンパク質の具体例としては、スパイダーシルク(クモ糸)、カイコシルク、ケラチン、コラーゲン、エラスチン及びレシリン、並びにこれら由来のタンパク質等を挙げることができる。使用するタンパク質としては、人工フィブロイン、或いは人工クモ糸フィブロイン(人工改変クモ糸フィブロイン)であってもよい。医療用に利用できるタンパク質の具体例としては、酵素、制御タンパク質、受容体、ペプチドホルモン、サイトカイン、膜又は輸送タンパク質、予防接種に利用する抗原、ワクチン、抗原結合タンパク質、免疫刺激タンパク質、アレルゲン、完全長抗体又は抗体フラグメント若しくは誘導体を挙げることができる。
タンパク質は、例えば、疎水性タンパク質であってよい。タンパク質が疎水性タンパク質である場合には、修飾タンパク質を原料の少なくとも一部として成形体を製造した際に、かかる成形体の耐水性が向上し、例えば、成形体が工業用の汎用材料として使用される場合に、使用寿命の延命化が有利に図られ得る。加えて、修飾タンパク質は、例えば、機能性物質が結合された際に、機能性物質の疎水性乃至親水性をコントロールすることで、機能性物質と修飾タンパク質の結合体全体の疎水性乃至親水性を任意に調整可能となり得る。タンパク質が疎水性を有する場合(すなわち、タンパク質が疎水性タンパク質である場合)には、タンパク質が親水性を有する場合に比して、結合体全体を疎水性側にシフトすることができ、以て結合体全体の疎水性乃至親水性をより幅広い範囲にわたってコントロール可能となり得る。
本実施形態に係るタンパク質は、例えば、構造タンパク質であってよい。構造タンパク質とは、工業用に利用できるタンパク質の一種であり、生体の構造に関わるタンパク質、若しくは生体が作り出す構造体を構成するタンパク質、又はそれらに由来するタンパク質を意味する。例えば、構造タンパク質は、生化学反応には直接かかわらないが、爪、毛髪、皮膚、腱、軟骨、細胞内外マトリクスを構成するタンパク質であり、コラーゲンやケラチンのように分子自体が繊維状で疎水性のコアがないタンパク質と、アクチンのように単量体では球状タンパク質であるが、繊維状に多数重合しているタンパク質重合体であり得る。構造タンパク質は、また、一定の条件下において自己凝集し、繊維、フィルム、樹脂、ゲル、ミセル、ナノパーティクル等の構造体を形成するタンパク質のことをいう。さらに、構造タンパク質は、特徴的なアミノ酸配列もしくはアミノ酸数残基からなるモチーフが繰り返し存在し、生物や材料の骨格を形成するタンパク質とも言える。構造タンパク質は、天然においては、例えば、フィブロイン、ケラチン、コラ-ゲン、エラスチン及びレシリンが挙げられる。絹のフィブロインは、βシートのポリペプチド鎖が伸びた構造で繊維を形成しており、ケラチンは、αヘリックスの複数のポリペプチド鎖がロープ状に束になっている。エラスチンは、比較的球状に近いポリペプチド鎖が共有結合によって架橋を作り、ゴムのような弾力性のある網目を形成している。コラーゲンは、細長い繊維状のポリペプチド鎖が三重らせん構造を形成しており(「コラーゲン原繊維」とも呼ばれる。)、各ポリペプチド鎖は、グリシン残基が3残基目ごとにあり、プロリン残基が全アミノ酸残基の20%以上あり、その約半分がヒドロキシプロリンであり、三重らせん構造の安定化に寄与している。
上述の成形体は、修飾タンパク質のみを材料として用いて成形することもできる。この場合、修飾タンパク質は、成形体の成形用材料とも言える。
