Description
本発明は、フィラメント表面に保持された未焼成ポリテトラフルオロエチレン(以下「PTFE」ともいう。)樹脂が脱落しにくく、加工性に優れたPTFE含浸糸およびその製造方法に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a PTFE-impregnated yarn excellent in processability and a non-fired polytetrafluoroethylene (hereinafter also referred to as “PTFE”) resin held on a filament surface, which is less likely to fall off.
PTFE樹脂はその優れた潤滑性、耐久性、耐熱性、耐薬品性からさまざまな用途に幅広く使用されている。PTFE樹脂から製造されるPTFE繊維も、その優れた耐熱性、耐薬品性、耐蒸熱性、電気絶縁性、また表面抵抗の低い材料として知られている。 PTFE resin is widely used in various applications because of its excellent lubricity, durability, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. PTFE fiber produced from PTFE resin is also known as a material having excellent heat resistance, chemical resistance, heat resistance, electrical insulation and low surface resistance.
それら特性を活かし、PTFE樹脂水性分散液をPTFEやカーボンファイバー、ケブラー、ノーメックス、PPS(ポリフェニレンサルファイド)などの繊維に含浸させた含浸糸を編組にした編組製品や、繊維を編組した後にPTFE樹脂水性分散液を含浸させた編組製品は、ポンプ、攪拌機、バルブなど各種流体機器の軸封部などに用いられるグランドパッキンとして幅広く使用されている(特許文献1)。 Taking advantage of these characteristics, braided products made by braiding impregnated yarn in which PTFE resin aqueous dispersion is impregnated in fibers such as PTFE, carbon fiber, Kevlar, Nomex, PPS (polyphenylene sulfide), and PTFE resin aqueous solution after braiding the fiber The braided product impregnated with the dispersion is widely used as a gland packing used in shaft seals of various fluid devices such as pumps, agitators, and valves (Patent Document 1).
PTFE含浸糸はフィラメント状の繊維にPTFE樹脂水性分散液を含浸させた後に乾燥させ、PTFE樹脂のみを繊維表面に未焼成の状態で露出させた繊維である。このPTFE含浸糸は未焼成PTFE樹脂を良好に保持し、このPTFE含浸糸を編組した製品はパッキン表面に常に安定した潤滑性を付与することが出来るとともに、柔軟性も保持し、長期間にわたるシール性を一層良好に確保できることが知られている(特許文献2)。 The PTFE-impregnated yarn is a fiber in which filamentary fibers are impregnated with an aqueous PTFE resin dispersion and then dried to expose only the PTFE resin on the fiber surface in an unfired state. This PTFE-impregnated yarn keeps the unfired PTFE resin well, and the products braided with this PTFE-impregnated yarn can always give a stable lubricity to the packing surface, and also maintain flexibility and seal over a long period of time. It is known that the property can be secured better (Patent Document 2).
しかしながら、PTFE含浸糸は、フィラメント状の繊維にPTFE樹脂水性分散液を含浸した後に乾燥させ水分を除去することにより、未焼成PTFE樹脂の状態でフィラメント状の繊維表面にPTFE樹脂を保持しているため、その過程においてガイド等への擦過によりPTFE樹脂が脱落し易いという欠点がある。 However, the PTFE-impregnated yarn retains the PTFE resin on the surface of the filament-like fiber in the state of the unfired PTFE resin by impregnating the filament-like fiber with the PTFE resin aqueous dispersion and drying it to remove moisture. Therefore, in the process, there is a drawback that the PTFE resin is easily dropped due to rubbing against a guide or the like.
本発明の目的は、フィラメント状の繊維表面に保持された未焼成PTFE樹脂が脱落しにくく、加工性に優れたPTFE含浸糸およびその製造方法を提供することである。 An object of the present invention is to provide a PTFE-impregnated yarn excellent in processability and a method for producing the same, in which an unsintered PTFE resin held on a filament-like fiber surface is less likely to fall off.

本発明によれば、フィラメント状の繊維の表面に未焼成PTFE樹脂が脱落しにくく、加工性に優れたPTFE樹脂水性分散液を含浸したPTFE含浸糸を提供することができる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a PTFE-impregnated yarn impregnated with an aqueous PTFE resin dispersion that is excellent in processability because the unsintered PTFE resin is unlikely to fall off on the surface of filamentous fibers.
以下に本発明の一実施態様に係るPTFE含浸糸の詳細について説明する。本実施態様によれば、フィラメント状の繊維表面に未焼成PTFE樹脂が脱落しにくく、加工性に優れたPTFE樹脂水性分散液を含浸したPTFE含浸糸を提供することができる。ここでPTFE含浸糸とは、フィラメント状の繊維に未焼成PTFE樹脂を含浸させ、または未焼成PTFE樹脂と液体潤滑剤としてのジメチルポリシロキサンとを含浸させた製品である。このPTFE含浸糸を編組した製品は、たとえばポンプ、攪拌機、バルブなど各種流体機器の軸封部などのグランドパッキンとして広く用いられる。 Details of the PTFE-impregnated yarn according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described below. According to this embodiment, it is possible to provide a PTFE-impregnated yarn impregnated with an aqueous PTFE resin dispersion that is excellent in processability because the unsintered PTFE resin is less likely to fall off on the filament-like fiber surface. Here, the PTFE-impregnated yarn is a product obtained by impregnating filamentary fibers with unsintered PTFE resin or impregnated with unsintered PTFE resin and dimethylpolysiloxane as a liquid lubricant. Products obtained by braiding the PTFE-impregnated yarn are widely used as gland packings for shaft seals of various fluid devices such as pumps, stirrers, and valves.
PTFE含浸糸は編組した際にも未焼成のPTFE樹脂や液体潤滑剤であるジメチルポリシロキサンを良好に保持して、パッキンの表面部及び内部からPTFE樹脂、またはPTFE樹脂と液体潤滑剤であるジメチルポリシロキサンをにじみ出させて、パッキン表面に常に安定した潤滑剤を付与することが出来るとともに、柔軟性も保持し、長期間にわたるシール性を一層良好に確保できるものである。 PTFE impregnated yarn retains unsintered PTFE resin and dimethylpolysiloxane, which is a liquid lubricant, even when braided, and PTFE resin, or PTFE resin and dimethyl, which is a liquid lubricant, from the surface and inside of the packing. Polysiloxane can be exuded and a stable lubricant can be constantly applied to the packing surface, and flexibility can be maintained, and a long-term sealing performance can be ensured better.
含浸させるフィラメント状の繊維としてはカーボンファイバーやケブラー、ノーメックスなどのアラミド繊維、PPS(ポリフェニレンサルファイド)、PTFE繊維などの高強力繊維や耐熱・耐薬品繊維を用いることが出来るが、特に限定はされない。 As the filament-like fibers to be impregnated, carbon fiber, aramid fibers such as Kevlar and Nomex, high strength fibers such as PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) and PTFE fibers, and heat and chemical resistant fibers can be used, but there is no particular limitation.
その中でも、特に耐熱や耐薬品性の観点からPTFE繊維であることが好ましい。その際のPTFE繊維は従来公知のマトリックス法(エマルジョン法ともいう)、スプリット剥離法、あるいはペースト押出法などの生産方式が知られているが、繊維断面が均一で繊度バラツキが小さいという観点から、マトリックス紡糸法によって得られるPTFE繊維であることが好ましい。スプリット剥離法あるいはペースト押出法によって得られるPTFE繊維では、細かく切り裂いて繊維を製造するために最終繊維状物の断面は扁平形状となり、しかも、繊度がランダムであって均一性に劣り、安定した繊維物性を得ることが難しい。 Among them, PTFE fiber is particularly preferable from the viewpoint of heat resistance and chemical resistance. PTFE fibers at that time are conventionally known production methods such as a matrix method (also called an emulsion method), a split peeling method, or a paste extrusion method, but from the viewpoint of uniform fiber cross-section and small variation in fineness, PTFE fibers obtained by a matrix spinning method are preferred. In PTFE fiber obtained by split peeling method or paste extrusion method, the final fiber-like product has a flat cross section because it is cut into small pieces, and the fineness is random, inferior in uniformity, and stable. It is difficult to obtain physical properties.
PTFE繊維は、繊度5000dtex以上150000dtex以下、単糸繊度2dtex以上14dtex以下とする構成のマルチフィラメントであることが好ましい。さらには繊度8000dtex以上120000dtex以下、単糸繊度3dtex以上10dtex以下がより好ましい。繊度5000dtex未満、単糸繊度2dtex未満の繊維は単糸繊度が細いため、安定した糸の生産が困難となる。繊度150000dtexおよび単糸繊度14dtexを超えると繊維間の隙間をPTFE樹脂微粒子や液体潤滑剤で抑えられず、編組製品として安定したシール性を付与することが出来なくなる恐れがある。 The PTFE fiber is preferably a multifilament having a fineness of 5000 dtex to 150,000 dtex and a single yarn fineness of 2 dtex to 14 dtex. More preferably, the fineness is 8000 dtex or more and 120,000 dtex or less, and the single yarn fineness is 3 dtex or more and 10 dtex or less. A fiber having a fineness of less than 5000 dtex and a single yarn fineness of less than 2 dtex has a fine single yarn fineness, making it difficult to produce a stable yarn. If the fineness exceeds 150,000 dtex and the single yarn fineness of 14 dtex, the gap between the fibers cannot be suppressed by the PTFE resin fine particles or the liquid lubricant, and there is a possibility that stable sealing performance cannot be provided as a braided product.
PTFE繊維の単糸強度は0.3cN/dtex以上2cN/dtex以下であることが好ましい。さらには0.4cN/dtex以上1.0cN/dtex以下であることが好ましい。単糸強度が0.3cN/dtex未満であれば強度が弱いため、繊維切れが頻発し高次加工性が劣り、さらには編組製品としての強力も低くなることで、その寿命が短くなる恐れがある。2cN/dtexを超える繊維は、PTFE繊維製造過程において、その条件が高度化し、安定した品質の繊維を得ることが難しくなる。 The single yarn strength of the PTFE fiber is preferably 0.3 cN / dtex or more and 2 cN / dtex or less. Further, it is preferably 0.4 cN / dtex or more and 1.0 cN / dtex or less. If the single yarn strength is less than 0.3 cN / dtex, the strength is weak, so that fiber breakage frequently occurs and inferior high-order processability, and further, the strength as a braided product may be reduced, and the life may be shortened. is there. Fibers exceeding 2 cN / dtex have advanced conditions in the PTFE fiber production process, making it difficult to obtain stable quality fibers.
PTFE繊維の230℃×30分の乾燥処理時における乾熱収縮率は3%以下であることが好ましい。3%を超えると編組製品としての寸法安定性が満足できなくなる。 It is preferable that the dry heat shrinkage rate of the PTFE fiber during drying at 230 ° C. for 30 minutes is 3% or less. If it exceeds 3%, the dimensional stability as a braided product cannot be satisfied.
PTFE繊維はPTFE樹脂水性分散液を含浸させることで、フィラメント状の繊維表面に未焼成のPTFE樹脂を保持することができる。 By impregnating the PTFE fiber with an aqueous PTFE resin dispersion, the unfired PTFE resin can be retained on the filament-like fiber surface.
PTFE樹脂水性分散液のPTFE濃度は55質量%以上65質量%以下であることが好ましい。55質量%未満であると、フィラメントに塗着するPTFE量が少なくなるため、目的の半焼成PTFE量を含浸させるために含浸回数を増やし、ライン速度を下げるなどの対策が必要となり、経済的に不利である。また、65質量%を超えるとPTFE塗着量の微妙なコントロールが難しくなる。 The PTFE concentration of the aqueous PTFE resin dispersion is preferably 55% by mass or more and 65% by mass or less. If the amount is less than 55% by mass, the amount of PTFE to be applied to the filament is reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to take measures such as increasing the number of impregnations and lowering the line speed in order to impregnate the desired semi-baked PTFE amount. It is disadvantageous. On the other hand, if it exceeds 65% by mass, delicate control of the PTFE coating amount becomes difficult.
PTFE樹脂水性分散液中の特定のノニオン系界面活性剤は、JIS K0129の熱重量測定(TGA)によって測定した220℃における重量減少が20質量%以下である。 The specific nonionic surfactant in the PTFE resin aqueous dispersion has a weight loss of 20% by mass or less at 220 ° C. measured by thermogravimetry (TGA) of JIS K0129.
上記220℃における重量減少が20質量%以下であるノニオン系界面活性剤は、疎水基として芳香族環を含まない直鎖あるいは/および分岐あるいは/および環状構造を有する炭化水素基を持ち、親水基としてポリオキシエチレン基を有するものであれば、特に構造は限定されないが、下記化学式で示されるものが好ましく使用される。 The nonionic surfactant having a weight loss of 20% by mass or less at 220 ° C. has a hydrocarbon group having a linear or / and branched or / and cyclic structure not containing an aromatic ring as a hydrophobic group, and a hydrophilic group As long as it has a polyoxyethylene group, the structure is not particularly limited, but those represented by the following chemical formula are preferably used.

R 1 (OCH 2 CH 2 ) n OH Formula (1)
(R 1 is an aliphatic hydrocarbon having a linear and / or branched structure having 10 to 15 carbon atoms, and n is an integer having an average of 5 to 20)
本発明において好ましい熱重量減少範囲である220℃において20質量%以下であるためには、R1が分岐デシル、イソデシルの場合には、nの平均が11以上であることが好ましい。 In order to be 20% by mass or less at 220 ° C., which is a preferred thermogravimetric reduction range in the present invention, when R 1 is branched decyl or isodecyl, the average of n is preferably 11 or more.
また、R1が分岐トリデシルの場合にはnの平均が7〜12であることが好ましい。 Further, it is preferable in the case of R 1 is branched tridecyl average of n is 7 to 12.
また、R1が炭素数が11〜14の分岐アルキル基混合物の場合には、nの平均が10〜13であることが好ましい。 In addition, when R 1 is a branched alkyl group mixture having 11 to 14 carbon atoms, the average of n is preferably 10 to 13.
さらに、上記ノニオン系界面活性剤を混合して使用することもできる。上記ノニオン系界面活性剤あるいはその混合物の曇点は30℃〜80℃であることが好ましく、さらに45℃から70℃であることが好ましい。 Furthermore, the nonionic surfactant can be mixed and used. The cloud point of the nonionic surfactant or mixture thereof is preferably 30 ° C to 80 ° C, more preferably 45 ° C to 70 ° C.
本発明のノニオン系界面活性剤は、分岐、直鎖あるいは環状の一級アルコールに公知の方法によってエチレンオキサイドおよび/あるいはポリプロピレンオキサイドを付加することによって得ることができる。また、2級、3級のアルコールにエチレンオキサイドおよび/あるいはポリプロピレンオキサイドを付加することによっても得ることができる。 The nonionic surfactant of the present invention can be obtained by adding ethylene oxide and / or polypropylene oxide to a branched, linear or cyclic primary alcohol by a known method. It can also be obtained by adding ethylene oxide and / or polypropylene oxide to secondary and tertiary alcohols.
エチレンオキサイドおよび/あるいはポリプロピレンオキサイドの付加は、単分散、あるいは、単分散を混合したバイモーダルであることができる。 The addition of ethylene oxide and / or polypropylene oxide can be monodispersed or bimodal mixed with monodisperse.
さらに、本発明の目的を損なわない範囲で、目的に応じてさらにノニオン系界面活性剤、アニオン系界面活性剤などを併用することができる。 Furthermore, a nonionic surfactant, an anionic surfactant, etc. can be used together according to the objective in the range which does not impair the objective of this invention.
PTFE繊維表面から半焼成PTFEが脱落しにくい理由については、発明者は、半焼成PTFE中に残存しているノニオン系界面活性剤が、PTFE粒子のバインダーとして適度な保持力を発現していると考えている。このため、半焼成温度付近におけるノニオン系界面活性剤の分解が多すぎると、このバインダー成分としてのノニオン界面活性剤量の残存量が少なくなり、保持力が不足するものと考えられる。熱重量測定(TGA)によって測定される、220℃における重量減少割合が20質量%超であると、半焼成工程において分解揮発するノニオン系界面活性剤量が過剰となりバインダー成分が不足する恐れがある。その結果、PTFE樹脂水性分散液を含浸後、乾燥工程のガイドへの擦過によりPTFE樹脂が脱落し易くなり、フィラメント状の繊維表面に目標とする未焼成PTFE樹脂を保持することが難しくなると考えられる。 Regarding the reason why the semi-fired PTFE is not easily removed from the surface of the PTFE fiber, the inventor said that the nonionic surfactant remaining in the semi-fired PTFE expresses an appropriate holding force as a binder of the PTFE particles. thinking. For this reason, when there is too much decomposition | disassembly of nonionic surfactant in the semi-baking temperature vicinity, the residual amount of the nonionic surfactant amount as this binder component will decrease, and it is thought that holding power is insufficient. If the weight loss rate at 220 ° C. measured by thermogravimetry (TGA) is more than 20% by mass, the amount of nonionic surfactant that decomposes and volatilizes in the semi-baking process may be excessive, and the binder component may be insufficient. . As a result, after impregnating the aqueous PTFE resin dispersion, the PTFE resin is likely to fall off by rubbing the guide in the drying step, and it is considered difficult to hold the target unsintered PTFE resin on the filament-like fiber surface. .
フィラメント状繊維に対して、60質量%以上120質量%以下の割合で未焼成PTFE樹脂が塗着していることが好ましい。未焼成PTFE樹脂の塗着割合は、より好ましくは70質量%以上110質量%以下である。60質量%未満であると、編組製品として安定したシール性を付与することが出来ない恐れがある。120質量%を超えても、それ以上のシール性の効果はなく、コスト悪化に繋がる。 It is preferable that the unsintered PTFE resin is applied to the filamentous fiber at a ratio of 60% by mass or more and 120% by mass or less. The coating ratio of the unsintered PTFE resin is more preferably 70% by mass or more and 110% by mass or less. If it is less than 60% by mass, there is a possibility that a stable sealing property cannot be imparted as a braided product. Even if it exceeds 120% by mass, there is no further sealing effect, leading to cost deterioration.
PTFE樹脂水性分散液を含浸後、乾燥温度を150℃以上220℃以下、乾燥時間を2分以上10分以下とすることが好ましい。乾燥温度160℃未満であるとPTFE樹脂水性分散液中の水分揮発が十分ではなく、PTFE樹脂の塗着性が悪化する恐れがある。乾燥温度220℃を超えると界面活性剤の分解が進み、PTFE樹脂の塗着性が悪化する。乾燥時間2分未満であるとPTFE樹脂水性分散液の水分揮発が十分ではなく、PTFE樹脂の塗着性が悪化する恐れがある。乾燥時間10分を超えてもPTFE含浸糸は十分に水分除去が完了しており、それ以上の乾燥はエネルギーの悪化に繋がる。 After impregnating with the aqueous PTFE resin dispersion, the drying temperature is preferably 150 ° C. or higher and 220 ° C. or lower, and the drying time is preferably 2 minutes or longer and 10 minutes or shorter. If the drying temperature is lower than 160 ° C., the water volatilization in the aqueous PTFE resin dispersion is not sufficient, and the applicability of the PTFE resin may be deteriorated. When the drying temperature exceeds 220 ° C., the decomposition of the surfactant proceeds and the coating property of the PTFE resin deteriorates. If the drying time is less than 2 minutes, the PTFE resin aqueous dispersion will not have sufficient water volatilization, and the coating property of the PTFE resin may be deteriorated. Even when the drying time exceeds 10 minutes, the PTFE-impregnated yarn has sufficiently removed water, and further drying leads to deterioration of energy.
PTFE含浸糸に対して、液体潤滑剤であるジメチルポリシロキサンが8質量%以上15質量%以下の割合で付着していることが好ましい。ジメチルポリシロキサンの付着割合は、より好ましくは10質量%以上13質量%以下である。8質量%未満であると編組の流体機器における初期潤滑性が悪化する恐れがある。15質量%を超えてもそれ以上の初期潤滑性が得られず、コスト悪化に繋がる。 It is preferable that dimethylpolysiloxane, which is a liquid lubricant, adheres to the PTFE-impregnated yarn at a ratio of 8% by mass to 15% by mass. The adhesion ratio of dimethylpolysiloxane is more preferably 10% by mass or more and 13% by mass or less. If it is less than 8% by mass, the initial lubricity in the braided fluid device may be deteriorated. Even if it exceeds 15% by mass, no further initial lubricity can be obtained, leading to cost deterioration.
これら得られたPTFE含浸糸を編組した製品は、たとえばポンプ、攪拌機、バルブなど各種流体機器の軸封部などのグランドパッキンとして広く用いられる。 Products obtained by braiding these obtained PTFE-impregnated yarns are widely used as gland packings for shaft seals of various fluid devices such as pumps, agitators and valves.
