Description

  The present invention relates to a composition containing polylactic acid. More specifically, the present invention relates to a composition having excellent thermal stability and hydrolysis resistance, which contains polylactic acid, a metal catalyst, a phosphono fatty acid ester catalyst deactivator, and a carbodiimide compound having a specific structure.

  Many of the plastics derived from petroleum are light and tough, have excellent durability, can be easily and arbitrarily molded, and have been mass-produced to support our lives. However, these plastics accumulate without being easily decomposed when discarded in the environment. Incineration also releases a large amount of carbon dioxide, spurring global warming.

  In view of such a current situation, researches have been actively conducted on resins made from petroleum-free raw materials or biodegradable plastics that are decomposed by microorganisms. Most biodegradable plastics currently under investigation have aliphatic carboxylic acid ester units and are easily degraded by microorganisms. On the other hand, thermal stability is poor, and molecular weight reduction or hue deterioration is serious in processes exposed to high temperatures such as melt spinning, injection molding, and melt film formation.

  Polylactic acid is a biodegradable plastic with excellent heat resistance and a good balance of hue and mechanical strength. However, it is more stable than petroleum resins such as polyethylene terephthalate and polyamide. There is still a difference in cloud mud. Various studies have been made on improving the thermal stability of polylactic acid in order to overcome this situation.

  The applicants previously proposed a technique in Patent Document 1 for effectively deactivating residual catalysts by using phosphono fatty acid esters as catalyst deactivators and improving the thermal stability and hue of polylactic acid. did. By this method, polylactic acid having improved thermal stability and hue can be obtained.

  On the other hand, in the hydrolysis of polyesters such as polylactic acid, if polar groups such as carboxyl groups are present in the molecule, catalytic hydrolysis is promoted. A method has been proposed for reducing the above-described drawbacks (for example, Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3).

A mono- or polycarbodiimide compound is used as the sealing agent for acidic groups such as carboxyl groups in consideration of the stability and reactivity of the sealing agent and the color tone of the resulting product, and a certain degree of effect is obtained. ing. However, since both mono and polycarbodiimide compounds are linear carbodiimide compounds, volatile isocyanate compounds are produced as by-products when used, and they have intrinsic defects that cause bad odors and worsen the working environment. It was.
Therefore, polylactic acid that can withstand even harsh conditions and can be manufactured and molded under a favorable working environment is desired.

(In the formula, Q is a divalent to tetravalent linking group that is an aliphatic group, an alicyclic group, an aromatic group, or a combination thereof, and may contain a hetero atom.)

  Another object of the present invention is to add a cyclic carbodiimide compound (D component) after mixing polylactic acid (A component) containing a metal catalyst (B component) and a phosphono fatty acid ester-based deactivator (C component). And a method of manufacturing the composition comprising mixing.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a composition (L) containing poly-L-lactic acid (A-1 component) and a composition (D) containing poly-D-lactic acid (A-2 component), A method of mixing to produce a composition containing stereocomplex crystals,
(I) The cyclic carbodiimide compound (D component) is present at the time of mixing, or the cyclic carbodiimide compound (D component) is added after mixing and mixed again,

For example, a vertical reaction vessel equipped with a high viscosity stirring blade such as a helical ribbon blade can be used alone or in parallel. Alcohol may be used as a polymerization initiator. Such alcohol is preferably non-volatile without inhibiting the polymerization of polylactic acid, for example, decanol, dodecanol, tetradecanol, hexadecanol, octadecanol, ethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, benzyl alcohol and the like are suitable.

The stereocomplex polylactic acid preferably has crystallinity, and the stereo ratio (Sc) defined by the following formula (ii) is 50 depending on the intensity ratio of diffraction peaks measured by wide-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD). % Or more is more preferable.
Sc (%) = [ΣI _SCi / (ΣI _SCi + I _HM )] × 100 (ii)

I _HM represents the integrated intensity I _HM of a diffraction peak derived from a homophase crystal appearing in the vicinity of 2θ = 16.5 °.

  The stereo ratio (Sc) is preferably selected in the range of 50 to 100%, more preferably 60 to 95%, and particularly preferably 65 to 90%. That is, when polylactic acid has Sc in the above range, the heat resistance and moist heat resistance of the molded product are more preferably satisfied.

  The crystallinity of stereocomplex polylactic acid, particularly the crystallinity by XRD measurement, is preferably at least 5%, more preferably 5 to 60%, even more preferably 7 to 50%, particularly preferably 10 to 45%. is there.

If the amount of the metal catalyst added is too small, the polymerization rate is remarkably lowered, which is not preferable. On the other hand, if the amount is too large, the hue and thermal stability of the composition obtained by coloring polylactic acid by reaction heat are deteriorated.

The phosphono fatty acid ester deactivator (component C) used in the present invention is a compound in which a phosphonic acid diester moiety and a carboxylic acid ester moiety are bonded via an aliphatic hydrocarbon group. Such a phosphono fatty acid ester is colorless. Since it is transparent and excellent in heat resistance, the hue of the resulting composition is good. In particular, a phosphono fatty acid ester having a chemical structure represented by the following formula (5) gives good results for the purpose of the present invention.

In the formula (5), when the carbon number of R ^{3 to} R ⁵ is 20 or less in the case of an alkyl group or 12 or less in the case of an aryl group, the melting point is sufficiently lower than the production temperature of polylactic acid or a composition. The metal catalyst can be captured efficiently by melting and mixing. The phosphono fatty acid ester has an aliphatic hydrocarbon tree between the phosphonic acid diester moiety and the carboxylic acid ester moiety. In order to efficiently capture the metal catalyst in the polylactic acid, in the formula (5), n is preferably an integer of 1 to 3.

  The content of the phosphono fatty acid ester is 0.001 to 0.5 parts by weight, preferably 0.02 to 0.2 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of polylactic acid. If the content of the phosphono fatty acid ester is too small, the deactivation effect of the remaining metal catalyst is extremely poor, and a sufficient effect cannot be obtained. On the other hand, when the amount is too large, the mold and die used during molding and spinning become very contaminated.

  In the present invention, the method of mixing the phosphono fatty acid ester with polylactic acid may be either a method of adding without dilution or a method of adding after dilution. For example, when a liquid or solid phosphono fatty acid ester having a melting point of less than 150 ° C. is used, in the ring-opening polymerization method, it can be directly added and kneaded in the reaction vessel at the latter stage of polymerization. Moreover, it is also possible to knead with an extruder or a kneader as a master batch formed into chips. Considering the uniform distribution in polylactic acid, the use of an extruder or a kneader is preferable. Also preferred is a method in which the discharge part of the reaction vessel is directly connected to the extruder and the phosphono fatty acid ester is added from the side feeder. On the other hand, in the solid phase polymerization method, a polylactic acid solid obtained at the end of polymerization and a phosphono fatty acid ester are kneaded with an extruder or kneader, and a polylactic acid solid and a master batch containing a phosphono fatty acid ester are mixed with an extruder or A method of kneading with a kneader, a method of contacting chips with vapor of phosphono fatty acid ester, a method of immersing or spraying in a solution of phosphono fatty acid ester, and the like are possible.

  Here, the number of atoms in the ring structure means the number of atoms that directly constitute the ring structure, and is, for example, 8 for an 8-membered ring and 50 for a 50-membered ring. This is because if the number of atoms in the cyclic structure is smaller than 8, the stability of the cyclic carbodiimide compound is lowered, and it may be difficult to store and use. From the viewpoint of reactivity, there is no particular restriction on the upper limit of the number of ring members, but cyclic carbodiimide compounds having more than 50 atoms are difficult to synthesize, and the cost may increase significantly. From this viewpoint, the number of atoms in the cyclic structure is preferably selected in the range of 10-30, more preferably 10-20.

That is, an unstretched film is extruded using an extruder or the like equipped with a T die, a circular die or the like, and further stretched and heat-treated to form. At this time, the unstretched film can be used as it is as a sheet. In forming the film, a material obtained by melt-kneading the composition and the above-described various components in advance can be used, or it can be formed through melt-kneading during extrusion molding. When extruding an unstretched film, an unstretched film with few surface defects can be obtained by blending an electrostatic adhesive such as a sulfonic acid quaternary phosphonium salt into the molten resin.

  Moreover, an unstretched film can also be cast-molded by melt | dissolving, casting, and drying-solidifying a composition and an additive component using solvents, such as chloroform and a methylene dichloride, for example.

Using DSC (TA Instrument, TA-2920), the sample was heated to 250 ° C. at 10 ° C./min under a nitrogen stream in the first cycle, and the glass transition temperature (Tg), stereocomplex phase poly Lactic acid crystal melting temperature (Tm *), stereocomplex phase polylactic acid crystal melting enthalpy (ΔHms) and homophase polylactic acid crystal melting enthalpy (ΔHmh) were measured.
In addition, the crystallization start temperature (Tc *) and the crystallization temperature (Tc) were measured by rapidly cooling the measurement sample and then performing a second cycle measurement under the same conditions. The degree of stereogenicity is a value determined by the following formula (ii) from the stereocomplex phase and homophase polylactic acid crystal melting enthalpy obtained by the above measurement.
S = [ΔHms / (ΔHmh + ΔHms)] × 100 (ii)
(However, ΔHms is the melting enthalpy of complex phase crystals, ΔHmh is the melting enthalpy of homophase polylactic acid crystals)

(4) Identification of cyclic carbodiimide compound structure by NMR and determination of cyclic carbodiimide compound in polyester composition:
The synthesized cyclic carbodiimide compound was confirmed by ¹ H-NMR and ¹³ C-NMR. For NMR, JNR-EX270 manufactured by JEOL Ltd. was used. Deuterated chloroform was used as the solvent.

(5) Identification of carbodiimide skeleton of cyclic carbodiimide compound by IR:
The presence or absence of the carbodiimide skeleton of the synthesized cyclic carbodiimide compound was confirmed by FT-IR at 2100-2200 cm ⁻¹ characteristic of carbodiimide. For FT-IR, Magna-750 manufactured by Thermo Nicolay Co., Ltd. was used.

(6) Stability against hydrolysis:
With respect to the polylactic acid composition, the reduced viscosity retention rate was evaluated when the sample was treated with a constant temperature and humidity machine at 80 ° C. and 95% RH for 100 hours.
The hydrolytic stability of the polylactic acid composition is “pass” when the reduced viscosity retention is from 80 to less than 90%, “excellent pass” when it is from 90 to less than 95%, and from 95% to 100%. “Especially excellent pass” is judged.
The reduced viscosity (η _sp / c) was measured by dissolving 1.2 mg of a sample in 100 ml of [tetrachloroethane / phenol = (6/4) wt% mixed solvent] and measuring at 35 ° C. using an Ubbelohde viscosity tube. Viscosity retention was determined as the reduced viscosity after sample treatment for the molecule and the reduced viscosity before sample treatment for the denominator.

(7) Existence of isocyanate odor:
When the sample was melted at 260 ° C. for 5 minutes in the aliphatic polyester, it was determined whether or not the measurer felt an isocyanate odor by sensory evaluation. When the isocyanate odor was not felt, it was judged to be acceptable.

(8) Good working environment:
Judgment was made based on whether the working environment was deteriorated by the isocyanate odor during the production of the resin composition. When it did not deteriorate, it was evaluated as good.

(9) Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of isocyanate gas generation:
The sample was heated at 260 ° C. for 8 minutes, and qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by pyrolysis GC / MS analysis. In addition, fixed_quantity | quantitative_assay was performed using the analytical curve created with isocyanate. GC / MS used was GC / MS Jms Q1000GC K9 manufactured by JEOL Ltd.
