【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、更生管用の塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及びその塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物を用いた塩化ビニル系樹脂更生管に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
近年、老朽化した既設管が増加しており、この様な老朽化した既設管を修復する方法の一つとして、機械的強度や耐薬品性等に優れた塩化ビニル系樹脂管を用いる方法がある。
【0003】
例えば、特表平6−508647号公報では、塩化ビニル樹脂に混合しうる熱可塑性エラストマーを加えた樹脂管により修復する方法が開示されている。しかし、この方法の場合、輸送時や施工時における樹脂管の破損を防止するに足る耐衝撃性を発現させるためには、多量の熱可塑性エラストマーや耐衝撃性改質剤等を添加する必要があり、得られる樹脂管の機械的強度が不十分になるという問題点がある。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明の目的は、上記問題点に鑑み、優れた機械的強度と耐衝撃性を兼備し、施工性にも優れる更生管を得るに適する更生管用塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及びその塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物を用いた塩化ビニル系樹脂更生管を提供することにある。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項1に記載の発明(以下、「本発明1」と記す)による更生管用塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物(以下、単に「塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物」と略記する)は、単独重合体のガラス転移温度(Tg)が−140〜−20℃であるアルキル(メタ)アクリレートモノマー50重量%以上及びその他のアクリル系モノマー50重量%以下を含有してなるアクリル系モノマー成分100重量部及び多官能性モノマー成分0.01〜30重量部を共重合したアクリル系共重合体3〜10重量%に、塩化ビニルモノマー又は塩化ビニルモノマー及びその他の共重合性モノマー97〜90重量%をグラフト共重合してなる平均重合度600〜3000の複合塩化ビニル系樹脂100重量部に対し、該複合塩化ビニル系樹脂と相溶し得るウレタン系エラストマー3〜30重量部が添加されてなることを特徴とする。尚、ここで(メタ)アクリレートとはアクリレート又はメタクリレートを意味する。
【0006】
請求項2に記載の発明(以下、「本発明2」と記す)による塩化ビニル系樹脂更生管(以下、単に「更生管」と略記する)は、上記本発明1の塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物からなり、且つ、既設管中に挿入され、加熱されることにより該既設管の内面に密着することを特徴とする。
【0007】
本発明1で用いられるアクリル系モノマー成分中に含有される単独重合体のTgが−140〜−20℃であるアルキル(メタ)アクリレートモノマーとしては、例えば、エチルアクリレート(−24℃)、n−プロピルアクリレート(−37℃)、n−ブチルアクリレート(−54℃)、イソブチルアクリレート(−24℃)、sec−ブチルアクリレート(−21℃)、n−ヘキシルアクリレート(−57℃)、2−エチルヘキシルアクリレート(−85℃)、n−オクチルアクリレート(−85℃)、n−オクチルメタクリレート(−25℃)、イソオクチルアクリレート(−45℃)、n−ノニルアクリレート(−63℃)、n−ノニルメタクリレート(−35℃)、イソノニルアクリレート(−85℃)、n−デシルアクリレート(−70℃)、n−デシルメタクリレート(−45℃)、ラウリルメタクリレート(−65℃)等が挙げられる。これらのアルキル(メタ)アクリレートモノマーは、単独で用いられても良いし、2種類以上が併用されても良い。尚、括弧内は単独重合体のTgを示す。
【0008】
上記アルキル(メタ)アクリレートモノマーの単独重合体のTgが−140℃未満であると、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管の機械的強度が不十分となり、逆にアルキル(メタ)アクリレートモノマーの単独重合体のTgが−20℃を超えると、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管の耐衝撃性が不十分となる。
【0009】
本発明1で用いられるアクリル系モノマー成分中に含有されても良いその他のアクリル系モノマーとしては、例えば、フェニルアクリレート、2−クロロエチルアクリレート、フェニルメチルメタクリレート、ヒドロキシエチルアクリレート等が挙げられる。これらのその他のアクリル系モノマーは、単独で用いられても良いし、2種類以上が併用されても良い。
【0010】
本発明1で用いられるアクリル系モノマー成分中における前記単独重合体のTgが−140〜−20℃であるアルキル(メタ)アクリレートモノマーの含有量が50重量%未満であるか、上記その他のアクリル系モノマーの含有量が50重量%を超えると、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管の耐衝撃性が不十分となったり、更生管の既設管に対する密着性が不十分となる。
【0011】
本発明1で用いられる多官能性モノマー成分としては、上記アクリル系モノマー成分と共重合可能なものであれば良く、例えば、エチレングリコールジ(メタ)アクリレート、ジエチレングリコールジ(メタ)アクリレート、1,6−ヘキサンジオールジ(メタ)アクリレート、トリメチロールプロパンジ(メタ)アクリレート、トリメチロールプロパントリ(メタ)アクリレート等の多官能(メタ)アクリレート類;ジアリルフタレート、ジアリルマレート、トリアリルイソシアヌレート等の多官能アリル化合物;ブタジエン等の不飽和化合物等が挙げられる。これらの多官能性モノマー成分は、単独で用いられても良いし、2種類以上が併用されても良い。
【0012】
本発明1で用いられるアクリル系共重合体は、前記アクリル系モノマー成分100重量部と上記多官能性モノマー成分0.01〜30重量部とを共重合体して得られるアクリル系共重合体である。アクリル系モノマー成分100重量部に対する多官能性モノマー成分の共重合量が0.01重量部未満であるか、逆に30重量部を超えると、アクリル系共重合体がエラストマー的機能を十分に発揮せず、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管の耐衝撃性が不十分となる。
【0013】
上記アクリル系共重合体は、例えば、乳化重合法、懸濁重合法、分散重合法等により得ることができるが、なかでも、共重合体の粒子径制御が容易なことから、乳化重合法が好ましく採用される。上記乳化重合の方法は、従来公知の方法で良く、本発明の課題達成を阻害しない範囲で必要に応じて、例えば、乳化分散剤、重合開始剤、pH調整剤、酸化防止剤等の各種添加剤の1種もしくは2種以上を添加して乳化重合を行えば良い。
【0014】
乳化分散剤としては、例えば、アニオン系界面活性剤、ノニオン系界面活性剤、部分鹸化ポリビニルアルコール、セルロース系分散剤、ゼラチン等が挙げられるが、なかでもアニオン系界面活性剤が好適に用いられる。アニオン系界面活性剤の市販品としては、例えば、ポリオキシエチレンノニルフェニルエーテルサルフェート(商品名「ハイテノールN−08」、第一工業製薬社製)等が挙げられる。これらの乳化分散剤は、単独で用いられても良いし、2種類以上が併用されても良い。
【0015】
重合開始剤としては、例えば、過硫酸アンモニウム、過硫酸カリウム、過酸化水素等の水溶性開始剤;ベンゾイルパーオキシド、ラウロイルパーオキシド、t−ブチルパーオキシデカネート、α−クミルパーオキシネオデカネート等の有機系過酸化物;アゾビスイソブチロニトリル等のアゾ系開始剤等が挙げられる。これらの重合開始剤は、単独で用いられても良いし、2種類以上が併用されても良い。
【0016】
乳化重合法の具体的な方法としては、例えば、一括重合法、モノマー滴下法、エマルジョン滴下法等が挙げられる。一括重合法は、ジャケット付重合反応器内に純水、乳化分散剤、重合開始剤、アクリル系混合モノマー(前記アクリル系モノマー成分+多官能性モノマー成分)を一括して仕込み、窒素気流中において加圧下で攪拌して十分に乳化した後、重合反応器内をジャケットで昇温して重合反応を開始させる方法である。又、モノマー滴下法は、ジャケット付重合反応器内に純水、乳化分散剤、重合開始剤を仕込み、窒素気流下で重合反応器内を昇温した後、上記アクリル系混合モノマーを一定量ずつ滴下して重合反応を開始させる方法である。さらに、エマルジョン滴下法は、上記混合モノマー、乳化分散剤、純水を攪拌して予め乳化モノマー液を調製し、次いで、ジャケット付重合反応器内に純水、重合開始剤を仕込み、窒素気流下で重合反応器内を昇温した後、上記乳化モノマー液を一定量ずつ滴下して重合反応を開始させる方法である。
【0017】
こうして得られるアクリル系共重合体(アクリル系樹脂)の構造や形態としては、特に限定されるものではないが、樹脂粒子の安定性向上や塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管の機械的強度向上を図れることから、例えば、樹脂粒子の表層部と内部とでモノマー組成や架橋構造が異なる所謂コア−シェル構造を有するものが好ましい。
【0018】
上記コア−シェル構造の形成方法としては、例えば、コア部を構成する前記アクリル系混合モノマー、乳化分散剤、純水から予め調製した乳化モノマー液に重合開始剤を添加して重合反応を行い、先ず、コア部の樹脂粒子を形成する。次いで、シェル部を構成する前記アクリル系混合モノマー、乳化分散剤、純水から予め調製した乳化モノマー液を添加し、上記コア部にグラフト共重合させる方法等が挙げられる。
【0019】
上記方法において、コア部に対するシェル部のグラフト共重合は、コア部の重合と同一の重合工程で連続的に行っても良い。コア部とシェル部の割合は、コア部を形成するアクリル系混合モノマーとシェル部を形成するアクリル系混合モノマーとの割合を調整することによって自在に調節可能である。又、シェル部に三次元的な架橋構造を形成させるために、前記多官能性モノマー成分をシェル部のみに使用しても良いし、シェル部に偏らせて使用しても良い。この場合も、多官能性モノマー成分の使用量は、アクリル系共重合体全体について、前記アクリル系モノマー成分100重量部に対して、多官能性モノマー成分0.01〜30重量部とされる。
【0020】
このような方法で得られるアクリル系共重合体粒子は、コア部の表面をシェル部が三次元的に覆い、シェル部を構成する樹脂とコア部を構成する樹脂とが部分的に共有結合しており、シェル部が三次元的な架橋構造を形成している。
【0021】
本発明1で用いられる塩化ビニル系樹脂は、上記アクリル系共重合体3〜10重量%に対し、塩化ビニルモノマー又は塩化ビニルモノマー及びその他の共重合性モノマー97〜90重量%をグラフト共重合して得られる、平均重合度が400〜2500の樹脂である。
【0022】
塩化ビニルモノマーと併用されても良いその他の共重合性モノマーとしては、塩化ビニルモノマーと共重合可能なモノマーであれば良く、例えば、エチレン、プロピレン、ブチレン等のαオレフィン類;プロピオン酸ビニル等のビニルエステル類;エチルビニルエーテル、ブチルビニルエーテル等のビニルエーテル類;メチル(メタ)アクリレート、ブチル(メタ)アクリレート、ヒドロキシエチル(メタ)アクリレート等の(メタ)アクリレート類;スチレン、α−メチルスチレン等の芳香族ビニル類;フッ化ビニル、フッ化ビニリデン、塩化ビニリデン等のハロゲン化ビニル類;N−フェニルマレイミド、N−シクロヘキシルマレイミド等のN−置換マレイミド類等が挙げられる。これらのその他の共重合性モノマーは、単独で用いられても良いし、2種類以上が併用されても良い。
【0023】
塩化ビニルモノマーと上記その他の共重合性モノマーとを併用する場合、その他の共重合性モノマーの使用量は、塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管に付与したい性能や目的に応じて適宜設定されれば良く、特に限定されるものではないが、塩化ビニルモノマー及びその他の共重合性モノマーからなる塩化ビニル系混合モノマー中の20重量%以下であることが好ましい。その他の共重合性モノマーの使用量が上記塩化ビニル系混合モノマー中の20重量%を超えると、塩化ビニル系樹脂が有する本来の特性を得られなくなることがある。
【0024】
本発明1で用いられる塩化ビニル系樹脂において、前記アクリル系共重合体の含有量が3重量%未満であるか、塩化ビニルモノマー又は上記塩化ビニル系混合モノマーの使用量が97重量%を超えると、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管の耐衝撃性が不十分となり、逆にアクリル系共重合体の含有量が10重量%を超えるか、塩化ビニルモノマー又は塩化ビニル系混合モノマーの使用量が90重量%未満であると、塩化ビニル系樹脂が有する本来の特性を得られなくなる。
【0025】
又、上記塩化ビニル系樹脂の平均重合度が400未満であると、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管の機械的強度が不十分となり、逆に複合塩化ビニル系樹脂の平均重合度が2500を超えると、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物の成形性が損なわれる。尚、上記平均重合度とは、塩化ビニル系樹脂をテトラヒドロフラン(THF)に溶解させ、濾過により不溶成分を除去した後、濾液中のTHFを乾燥除去して得た樹脂を試料とし、JIS K−6721「塩化ビニル樹脂試験方法」に準拠して測定した平均重合度を意味する。
【0026】
アクリル系共重合体と塩化ビニルモノマー又は前記塩化ビニル系混合モノマーとのグラフト共重合方法としては、従来公知の方法で良く、例えば、懸濁重合法、乳化重合法、溶液重合法等が挙げられるが、一般的には、乳化状態(エマルジョン状態)にあるアクリル系共重合体を塩化ビニルモノマー又は塩化ビニル系混合モノマーと懸濁重合する方法が用いられる。上記懸濁重合法には、前記乳化分散剤や重合開始剤等が用いられる。
【0027】
懸濁重合法の具体的な方法としては、例えば、攪拌機及び温度調節機を備えた重合反応器内に、純水、乳化分散剤、重合開始剤、アクリル系共重合体エマルジョンを仕込み、重合反応器内の空気を真空ポンプで排除した後、塩化ビニルモノマー又は塩化ビニル系混合モノマーを重合反応器内に導入する。次いで、重合反応器を昇温して、所望の重合温度で重合反応を開始させる。重合反応終了後、残存モノマーを重合反応器外に排出して塩化ビニル系樹脂のスラリーを得た後、脱水機による脱水や乾燥機による乾燥等の工程を経ることにより、所望の複合塩化ビニル系樹脂を得ることができる。
【0028】
本発明1による塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物は、上記塩化ビニル系樹脂100重量部に対し、該塩化ビニル系樹脂と相溶し得るウレタン系エラストマー3〜30重量部が添加されてなる。
【0029】
上記ウレタン系エラストマーには、前記塩化ビニル系樹脂と相溶し得る熱可塑性エラストマーが添加されてもよく、例えば、アクリロニトリル−ブタジエン共重合体(NBR)、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(EVA)、エチレン−酢酸ビニル−一酸化炭素共重合体(EVACO)、塩化ビニル−酢酸ビニル共重合体や塩化ビニル−塩化ビニリデン共重合体等の塩化ビニル系熱可塑性エラストマー、スチレン系熱可塑性エラストマー、オレフィン系熱可塑性エラストマー、ポリエステル系熱可塑性エラストマー、ポリアミド系熱可塑性エラストマー等が挙げられる。これらの熱可塑性エラストマーは、単独で用いられても良いし、2種類以上が併用されても良い。
【0030】
塩化ビニル系樹脂100重量部に対する上記ウレタン系エラストマーの添加量が3重量部未満であると、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物からなる更生管を既設管中に挿入し、加熱して既設管に密着させる時の施工性が損なわれ、逆に塩化ビニル系樹脂100重量部に対するウレタン系エラストマーの添加量が30重量部を超えると、得られる塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物及び更生管の機械的強度が不十分となる。
【0031】
本発明1の塩化ビニル系樹脂組成物には、本発明の課題達成を阻害しない範囲で必要に応じて、必須成分である複合塩化ビニル系樹脂及び熱可塑性エラストマー以外に、充填剤、顔料、滑剤、加工助剤、安定剤、安定化助剤、光安定剤、紫外線吸収剤、酸化防止剤(老化防止剤)、帯電防止剤、難燃剤等の各種添加剤の1種もしくは2種以上が添加されていても良い。これらの添加剤の添加方法や添加順序は、特に限定されるものではなく、任意の方法や任意の順序であって良い。
【0032】
充填剤としては、例えば、炭酸カルシウム、タルク、クレー、シリカ等の無機充填剤が挙げられる。これらの充填剤は、単独で用いられても良いし、2種類以上が併用されても良い。

[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, the number of existing pipes that have deteriorated has increased, and as one of the methods for repairing such old pipes, there is a method using a vinyl chloride resin pipe having excellent mechanical strength and chemical resistance. is there.
[0003]
For example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 6-508647 discloses a method of repairing with a resin tube in which a thermoplastic elastomer that can be mixed with vinyl chloride resin is added. However, in the case of this method, it is necessary to add a large amount of thermoplastic elastomer, impact modifier, etc. in order to develop impact resistance sufficient to prevent breakage of the resin pipe during transportation and construction. There is a problem that the mechanical strength of the obtained resin pipe becomes insufficient.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a rehabilitated pipe vinyl chloride resin composition suitable for obtaining a rehabilitated pipe having both excellent mechanical strength and impact resistance and excellent workability, and its vinyl chloride resin. An object of the present invention is to provide a vinyl chloride resin rehabilitation pipe using the composition.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
A vinyl chloride resin composition for rehabilitation pipes (hereinafter simply abbreviated as “vinyl chloride resin composition”) according to the invention described in claim 1 (hereinafter referred to as “present invention 1”) is a homopolymer glass. 100 parts by weight of an acrylic monomer component containing 50% by weight or more of an alkyl (meth) acrylate monomer having a transition temperature (Tg) of −140 to −20 ° C. and 50% by weight or less of other acrylic monomers, and polyfunctionality Graft copolymerization of 3 to 10% by weight of an acrylic copolymer obtained by copolymerizing 0.01 to 30 parts by weight of a monomer component with 97 to 90% by weight of vinyl chloride monomer or vinyl chloride monomer and other copolymerizable monomers. Urethane elastomer 3 that is compatible with the composite vinyl chloride resin with respect to 100 parts by weight of the composite vinyl chloride resin having an average polymerization degree of 600 to 3000 Characterized in that 30 parts by weight is added. Here, (meth) acrylate means acrylate or methacrylate.
[0006]
The vinyl chloride resin rehabilitation pipe (hereinafter simply referred to as “rehabilitation pipe”) according to the invention of claim 2 (hereinafter referred to as “present invention 2”) is the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention 1 described above. And it is inserted into an existing pipe and heated to be in close contact with the inner surface of the existing pipe.
[0007]
Examples of the alkyl (meth) acrylate monomer whose Tg of the homopolymer contained in the acrylic monomer component used in the present invention 1 is −140 to −20 ° C. include, for example, ethyl acrylate (−24 ° C.), n- Propyl acrylate (-37 ° C), n-butyl acrylate (-54 ° C), isobutyl acrylate (-24 ° C), sec-butyl acrylate (-21 ° C), n-hexyl acrylate (-57 ° C), 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (-85 ° C), n-octyl acrylate (-85 ° C), n-octyl methacrylate (-25 ° C), isooctyl acrylate (-45 ° C), n-nonyl acrylate (-63 ° C), n-nonyl methacrylate ( -35 ° C), isononyl acrylate (-85 ° C), n-decyl acrylate ( 70 ° C.), n-decyl methacrylate (-45 ° C.), lauryl methacrylate (-65 ° C.) and the like. These alkyl (meth) acrylate monomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The parentheses indicate the Tg of the homopolymer.
[0008]
If the Tg of the homopolymer of the alkyl (meth) acrylate monomer is less than −140 ° C., the resulting vinyl chloride resin composition and the rehabilitation pipe have insufficient mechanical strength, and conversely, the alkyl (meth) acrylate monomer. When the Tg of the homopolymer exceeds -20 ° C, the resulting vinyl chloride resin composition and the regenerated pipe have insufficient impact resistance.
[0009]
Examples of other acrylic monomers that may be contained in the acrylic monomer component used in the present invention 1 include phenyl acrylate, 2-chloroethyl acrylate, phenylmethyl methacrylate, and hydroxyethyl acrylate. These other acrylic monomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0010]
The content of the alkyl (meth) acrylate monomer in which the Tg of the homopolymer in the acrylic monomer component used in the present invention 1 is −140 to −20 ° C. is less than 50% by weight, or the other acrylic type If the monomer content exceeds 50% by weight, the resulting vinyl chloride resin composition and rehabilitated pipe will have insufficient impact resistance, or the rehabilitated pipe will have insufficient adhesion to existing pipes.
[0011]
The polyfunctional monomer component used in the present invention 1 is not particularly limited as long as it can be copolymerized with the acrylic monomer component. For example, ethylene glycol di (meth) acrylate, diethylene glycol di (meth) acrylate, 1,6 -Polyfunctional (meth) acrylates such as hexanediol di (meth) acrylate, trimethylolpropane di (meth) acrylate, trimethylolpropane tri (meth) acrylate, etc .; many such as diallyl phthalate, diallyl malate, triallyl isocyanurate Functional allyl compounds; unsaturated compounds such as butadiene. These polyfunctional monomer components may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0012]
The acrylic copolymer used in the present invention 1 is an acrylic copolymer obtained by copolymerizing 100 parts by weight of the acrylic monomer component and 0.01 to 30 parts by weight of the polyfunctional monomer component. is there. When the copolymerization amount of the polyfunctional monomer component with respect to 100 parts by weight of the acrylic monomer component is less than 0.01 parts by weight, or conversely exceeds 30 parts by weight, the acrylic copolymer sufficiently exhibits the elastomeric function. The impact resistance of the resulting vinyl chloride resin composition and retreaded pipe is insufficient.
[0013]
The acrylic copolymer can be obtained by, for example, an emulsion polymerization method, a suspension polymerization method, a dispersion polymerization method, etc. Among them, since the particle diameter of the copolymer can be easily controlled, an emulsion polymerization method is used. Preferably employed. The emulsion polymerization method may be a conventionally known method, and, for example, various additions such as an emulsion dispersant, a polymerization initiator, a pH adjuster, an antioxidant, etc. as long as they do not impede achievement of the object of the present invention. One type or two or more types of agents may be added to carry out emulsion polymerization.
[0014]
Examples of the emulsifying dispersant include an anionic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, a partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol, a cellulose dispersant, and gelatin. Among these, an anionic surfactant is preferably used. Examples of commercially available anionic surfactants include polyoxyethylene nonylphenyl ether sulfate (trade name “Hitenol N-08”, manufactured by Daiichi Kogyo Seiyaku Co., Ltd.). These emulsifying dispersants may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0015]
Examples of the polymerization initiator include water-soluble initiators such as ammonium persulfate, potassium persulfate, and hydrogen peroxide; benzoyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, t-butyl peroxydecanate, α-cumyl peroxyneodecanate, and the like. Organic peroxides; and azo initiators such as azobisisobutyronitrile. These polymerization initiators may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0016]
Specific examples of the emulsion polymerization method include a batch polymerization method, a monomer dropping method, and an emulsion dropping method. In the batch polymerization method, pure water, an emulsifying dispersant, a polymerization initiator, and an acrylic mixed monomer (the acrylic monomer component + polyfunctional monomer component) are charged all at once in a jacketed polymerization reactor, and in a nitrogen stream. In this method, the mixture is sufficiently emulsified by stirring under pressure, and then the temperature inside the polymerization reactor is raised with a jacket to start the polymerization reaction. In addition, the monomer dropping method is a method in which pure water, an emulsifying dispersant, and a polymerization initiator are charged in a jacketed polymerization reactor, and the polymerization reactor is heated in a nitrogen stream, and then the acrylic mixed monomer is added in a certain amount. In this method, the polymerization reaction is started by dropping. Further, the emulsion dropping method is to prepare an emulsified monomer liquid in advance by stirring the above-mentioned mixed monomer, emulsifying dispersant, and pure water, and then charging pure water and a polymerization initiator in a jacketed polymerization reactor under a nitrogen stream. In this method, the temperature inside the polymerization reactor is increased, and then the emulsified monomer solution is added dropwise by a certain amount to start the polymerization reaction.
[0017]
The structure and form of the acrylic copolymer (acrylic resin) thus obtained are not particularly limited, but the stability of the resin particles is improved and the mechanical strength of the vinyl chloride resin composition and the rehabilitation pipe is improved. Therefore, for example, those having a so-called core-shell structure in which the monomer composition and the crosslinked structure are different between the surface layer portion and the inside of the resin particle are preferable.
[0018]
As a method for forming the core-shell structure, for example, a polymerization initiator is added to an emulsion monomer liquid prepared in advance from the acrylic mixed monomer, emulsion dispersant, and pure water constituting the core portion, and a polymerization reaction is performed. First, the resin particles of the core part are formed. Next, a method of adding an emulsion monomer liquid prepared in advance from the acrylic mixed monomer, the emulsifying dispersant, and pure water constituting the shell portion and graft copolymerizing the core portion, and the like can be mentioned.
[0019]
In the above method, the graft copolymerization of the shell part to the core part may be continuously performed in the same polymerization step as the polymerization of the core part. The ratio of the core part to the shell part can be freely adjusted by adjusting the ratio of the acrylic mixed monomer forming the core part and the acrylic mixed monomer forming the shell part. Further, in order to form a three-dimensional crosslinked structure in the shell portion, the polyfunctional monomer component may be used only in the shell portion or may be used while being biased toward the shell portion. Also in this case, the usage amount of the polyfunctional monomer component is 0.01 to 30 parts by weight of the polyfunctional monomer component with respect to 100 parts by weight of the acrylic monomer component with respect to the entire acrylic copolymer.
[0020]
In the acrylic copolymer particles obtained by such a method, the shell part three-dimensionally covers the surface of the core part, and the resin constituting the shell part and the resin constituting the core part are partially covalently bonded. The shell part forms a three-dimensional cross-linked structure.
[0021]
The vinyl chloride resin used in the present invention 1 is obtained by graft copolymerization of 97 to 90% by weight of vinyl chloride monomer or vinyl chloride monomer and other copolymerizable monomers with respect to 3 to 10% by weight of the acrylic copolymer. It is a resin having an average degree of polymerization of 400 to 2500.
[0022]
The other copolymerizable monomer that may be used in combination with the vinyl chloride monomer may be any monomer that can be copolymerized with the vinyl chloride monomer, such as α-olefins such as ethylene, propylene, butylene; vinyl propionate, etc. Vinyl esters; vinyl ethers such as ethyl vinyl ether and butyl vinyl ether; (meth) acrylates such as methyl (meth) acrylate, butyl (meth) acrylate and hydroxyethyl (meth) acrylate; aromatics such as styrene and α-methylstyrene Vinyls; halogenated vinyls such as vinyl fluoride, vinylidene fluoride, and vinylidene chloride; and N-substituted maleimides such as N-phenylmaleimide and N-cyclohexylmaleimide. These other copolymerizable monomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0023]
When the vinyl chloride monomer and the other copolymerizable monomer are used in combination, the amount of the other copolymerizable monomer is appropriately set according to the performance and purpose to be imparted to the vinyl chloride resin composition and the rehabilitation pipe. Although not particularly limited, it is preferably 20% by weight or less in the vinyl chloride mixed monomer composed of the vinyl chloride monomer and other copolymerizable monomers. If the amount of the other copolymerizable monomer used exceeds 20% by weight in the vinyl chloride mixed monomer, the original characteristics of the vinyl chloride resin may not be obtained.
[0024]
In the vinyl chloride resin used in the present invention 1, when the content of the acrylic copolymer is less than 3% by weight, or the use amount of the vinyl chloride monomer or the vinyl chloride mixed monomer exceeds 97% by weight. The impact resistance of the resulting vinyl chloride resin composition and rehabilitation pipe becomes insufficient, and conversely the acrylic copolymer content exceeds 10% by weight, or the use of vinyl chloride monomer or vinyl chloride mixed monomer If the amount is less than 90% by weight, the original characteristics of the vinyl chloride resin cannot be obtained.
[0025]
Further, if the average degree of polymerization of the vinyl chloride resin is less than 400, the mechanical strength of the obtained vinyl chloride resin composition and the rehabilitation pipe becomes insufficient, and conversely, the average degree of polymerization of the composite vinyl chloride resin is low. If it exceeds 2500, the moldability of the resulting vinyl chloride resin composition is impaired. The average degree of polymerization refers to a resin obtained by dissolving a vinyl chloride resin in tetrahydrofuran (THF), removing insoluble components by filtration, and then removing THF in the filtrate by drying, and using JIS K- It means an average degree of polymerization measured according to 6721 “Testing method of vinyl chloride resin”.
[0026]
The graft copolymerization method of the acrylic copolymer and the vinyl chloride monomer or the vinyl chloride mixed monomer may be a conventionally known method such as suspension polymerization method, emulsion polymerization method, solution polymerization method and the like. However, generally, a method of suspension polymerization of an acrylic copolymer in an emulsified state (emulsion state) with a vinyl chloride monomer or a vinyl chloride mixed monomer is used. In the suspension polymerization method, the emulsifying dispersant, polymerization initiator, and the like are used.
[0027]
As a specific method of the suspension polymerization method, for example, pure water, an emulsifying dispersant, a polymerization initiator, and an acrylic copolymer emulsion are charged into a polymerization reactor equipped with a stirrer and a temperature controller, and a polymerization reaction is performed. After the air in the vessel is removed by a vacuum pump, vinyl chloride monomer or vinyl chloride mixed monomer is introduced into the polymerization reactor. Next, the polymerization reactor is heated to start the polymerization reaction at a desired polymerization temperature. After the completion of the polymerization reaction, the residual monomer is discharged out of the polymerization reactor to obtain a vinyl chloride resin slurry, and then the desired composite vinyl chloride system is obtained through steps such as dehydration by a dehydrator and drying by a dryer. A resin can be obtained.
[0028]
The vinyl chloride resin composition according to the present invention 1 comprises 3 to 30 parts by weight of a urethane elastomer that is compatible with the vinyl chloride resin with respect to 100 parts by weight of the vinyl chloride resin.
[0029]
The urethane elastomer may be added with a thermoplastic elastomer that is compatible with the vinyl chloride resin. For example, an acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer (NBR), an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), Vinyl chloride thermoplastic elastomers such as ethylene-vinyl acetate-carbon monoxide copolymer (EVACO), vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer and vinyl chloride-vinylidene chloride copolymer, styrene thermoplastic elastomer, olefin heat Examples thereof include a plastic elastomer, a polyester-based thermoplastic elastomer, and a polyamide-based thermoplastic elastomer. These thermoplastic elastomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0030]
When the added amount of the urethane elastomer is less than 3 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the vinyl chloride resin, a rehabilitation pipe made of the resulting vinyl chloride resin composition is inserted into the existing pipe and heated to the existing pipe. When the workability at the time of adhesion is impaired, and the addition amount of the urethane elastomer with respect to 100 parts by weight of the vinyl chloride resin exceeds 30 parts by weight, the mechanical strength of the obtained vinyl chloride resin composition and the rehabilitation pipe is reduced. It becomes insufficient.
