Description

The present invention relates to a compatibilizing material, a modifying material, and a resin that impart a modifying effect in order to obtain a thermoplastic resin composition having excellent mechanical properties such as strength and impact resistance, molding processability, and chemical resistance. The present invention relates to a composition, particularly engineering plastics by modifying engineering plastics such as polyamide, polyester, polycarbonate, polyacetal, modified polyphenylene ether, polyphenylene sulfide, etc., or by compatibilizing the engineering plastics and olefinic resins. It is a modifier and compatibilizer for the purpose of imparting impact resistance and chemical resistance, etc., and improving flowability and moldability, and also thermoplastics containing these components. It relates to a resin composition.

Polyamide, polyester, polycarbonate, polyacetal, modified polyphenylene ether, polyphenylene sulfide, and the like have higher heat resistance and rigidity than general-purpose resins such as polyolefin, and are generally called engineering plastics and are used in various industries.

Among engineering plastics, polyamide has excellent characteristics such as mechanical properties such as rigidity and toughness, oil resistance and chemical resistance. For this reason, applications have been developed for various functional parts such as automobile parts, electrical / electronic parts, and the like. However, polyamides are not sufficient in performance such as impact resistance and flexibility especially in the absolutely dry state to satisfy market demands, and various improvements are being studied.

As a method for improving the impact resistance of polyamide at the time of absolutely dry or at a low temperature, there has been proposed a method of melt blending various olefinic resins with polyamide. However, polyamide is a thermoplastic resin with a polar group, whereas olefin resin is a nonpolar resin, so compatibility is very low, and it is known that impact resistance is not improved even if it is melt blended as it is. It has been.

As an olefin resin effective for improving the impact resistance of polyamide, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses ethylene and α, β-unsaturated carboxylic acid produced by using a high-pressure radical polymerization process or an acid thereof. A polar group-containing olefin copolymer with an anhydride has been proposed (a molecular structure example of a polar group-containing olefin copolymer into which a polar group has been introduced using a high-pressure radical polymerization process is shown in FIG. Show.) According to this method, the α, β-unsaturated carboxylic acid or its acid anhydride in the copolymer interacts with the polyamide molecular chain, thereby improving the impact resistance. However, the polar group-containing olefin copolymer produced by the high-pressure radical polymerization process has a molecular structure with many long-chain branches and short-chain branches irregularly as shown in FIG. The resulting olefin resin has low mechanical properties and has a limited impact resistance improvement effect on polyamide.

As another effective olefin resin for improving the impact resistance of polyamide, an olefin resin having a specific structure, an organic peroxide, an ethylenically unsaturated group-containing carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof, etc. A modified olefin-based resin grafted with a polar group-containing monomer has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Documents 2 and 3). Modified olefin resins effective for improving the impact resistance of polyamide produced by this method include intermolecular crosslinking between olefin resins and molecular chain scission of olefin resins in parallel with the grafting reaction. Therefore, there arises a problem that the excellent physical properties of the olefin resin are not maintained in the graft modified product. For example, unnecessary long chain branching is introduced by intermolecular crosslinking, resulting in an increase in melt viscosity and broadening of the molecular weight distribution, which adversely affects the modification effect and moldability. Further, the increase in the low molecular weight component of the olefin resin due to the molecular chain breakage presents the problem of causing eye strain and fuming during molding. Furthermore, it is not easy to graft a large amount of polar group-containing monomer onto an olefin resin by graft modification. As a method for increasing the content of the polar group-containing monomer, for example, a method for increasing the amount of the polar group-containing monomer used for graft modification and the amount of the organic peroxide can be considered. When this method is used, it leads to further intermolecular crosslinking and molecular chain breakage of the olefin resin, and various physical properties such as mechanical properties, impact resistance, long-term durability, and moldability are impaired. In addition, the amount of unreacted polar group-containing monomers and organic peroxide decomposition products remaining in the olefin resin increases, leading to an accelerated deterioration of the olefin resin and an unpleasant odor. Occur. Therefore, there has been a limit to increase the content of the polar group-containing monomer in the olefin resin. As a result, the effect of improving the impact resistance of polyamide was limited.

On the other hand, when a conventional metallocene catalyst is used to copolymerize ethylene and a polar group-containing monomer, it has been said that catalytic polymerization activity is reduced and polymerization is difficult. A method of polymerizing a polar group-containing olefin copolymer in the presence of a catalyst coordinated to a transition metal has been proposed (see Patent Documents 4 to 7). According to these methods, although it has a high elastic modulus and mechanical strength compared with the polar group-containing olefin copolymer obtained by the high-pressure radical process, it is possible to increase the polar group content. 2 (b) and 3 (c) show image diagrams of the molecular structure of the polar group-containing olefin copolymer polymerized using a catalyst. The methods described in these documents are mainly methyl acrylate or ethyl acrylate. It focuses on monomers containing acrylate groups such as acrylates, and copolymers of ethylene or α-olefins with specific polar group-containing monomers such as vinyl acetate, and are considered to contribute to improving the impact resistance of polyamides or There is no suggestion of polar group-containing olefin copolymers containing dicarboxylic anhydride groups. Furthermore, the modification effect on polyamide and other engineering plastics is not mentioned.

Furthermore, in general, a carboxyl group or a dicarboxylic anhydride group is known as a polar group capable of expressing the impact resistance modification effect of polyamide or other engineering plastics. It is difficult to copolymerize a carboxyl group- or dicarboxylic anhydride group-containing comonomer by a legal method, and currently, a polar group-containing olefin copolymer mainly containing a carboxyl group or a dicarboxylic anhydride group that is commercially available Is due to the high pressure radical polymerization process.
In addition, as an example of the polar group-containing olefin copolymer polymerized without using the high-pressure radical polymerization process, a so-called masking method called a specific metallocene catalyst and a sufficient amount of organic aluminum (with a polar group-containing monomer) Among the process inventions that polymerize in the presence of equimolar or more), a polar group-containing olefin copolymer obtained by copolymerizing (2,7-octadien-1-yl) succinic anhydride, ethylene, and 1-butene is shown. (See Patent Document 8).
However, according to the present invention, a large amount of organoaluminum is required for the polymerization of the copolymerization of the polar group-containing olefin, and the production cost must be increased. In addition, a large amount of organoaluminum is present in the polar group-containing olefin copolymer as an impurity, causing deterioration of mechanical properties, discoloration, and promotion of deterioration, and further removing this leads to further cost increase. Furthermore, the effect of the invention is to produce a polar group-containing olefin copolymer mainly with high polymerization activity, and the modification effect on polyamide and other engineering plastics is not mentioned.

In view of the above conventional methods, the method of introducing a polar group into an olefin resin, including graft modification, high-pressure radical polymerization process, method using a large amount of organoaluminum, etc. A polar group-containing olefin copolymer containing a carboxyl group or a dicarboxylic anhydride group, produced by a method not dependent on a known method, for the purpose of modifying polyamides and other engineering plastics It is clear that the development of compatibilizers is desired. Furthermore, it is desired to propose a modifier for the purpose of modifying the physical properties of the resin contained in each engineering plastic, a compatibilizer with an olefin resin, and a thermoplastic resin composition.

In this case, a peak of methine carbon A3 _br of structure A3 bonded to the main chain is detected around 38.0 ppm. Moreover, even if the polar group-containing monomer is introduced into the main chain or at the end of the molecular chain, a peak of the methine carbon A3 _CH of the succinic anhydride group is generated around 41.0 ppm. When the integrated intensity of the peak of carbon A3 _br near 38.0 ppm is expressed as I _38.0 , and the peak integrated intensity of carbon A3 _CH near _41.0 ppm is expressed as I _41.0 etc., the total structural unit amount of the polar group Content of structure A3 is calculated | required from Formula-3, 4.

In the polar group-containing olefin copolymer containing a carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group according to the present invention, the amount of structural units derived from the carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group-containing monomer contained in the molecular chain is the molecular chain. A polar group having a sufficient amount for a copolymer containing a carboxyl group or a dicarboxylic acid anhydride group without lowering the molecular weight, being larger than the amount of structural units derived from a carboxyl group or dicarboxylic acid anhydride group monomer contained at the terminal It is essential to introduce. When the structural unit amount derived from the carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group-containing monomer contained in the molecular chain is less than the structural unit amount derived from the carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group-containing monomer contained at the molecular chain end, Most of the carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group will be present at the end of the molecular chain. The higher the molecular weight, the lower the carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group content in the molecular chain, making it impossible to obtain a sufficient modification effect for thermoplastic resins having polar groups. Further, in order to increase the carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group content in the molecular chain, it is necessary to reduce the molecular weight. However, if the molecular weight decreases, the mechanical strength of the resin decreases, and the polar group A sufficient reforming effect on the thermoplastic resin having the above cannot be obtained. That is, it is impossible to achieve both a sufficiently large molecular weight and polar group content.

Moreover, the molecular chain terminal of the polar group-containing olefin copolymer may be ethylene, an α-olefin having 3 to 20 carbon atoms, or a polar group-containing monomer.

A: Ethylene or α-olefin having 3 to 20 carbon atoms B: Monomer containing carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group

In addition, although the example of the molecular structure of the copolymer by which B structural unit graft-modified with respect to A structural unit was published as reference below, it is a structure different from the random copolymer of this invention.

A: Ethylene or α-olefin having 3 to 20 carbon atoms B: Monomer containing carboxyl group or dicarboxylic anhydride group

The polar group-containing olefin copolymer according to the present invention is produced in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, and its molecular structure is linear. An image diagram of an olefin copolymer polymerized by a high-pressure radical polymerization process is shown in FIG. 1 (a), and an image diagram of an olefin copolymer polymerized using a metal catalyst is shown in FIGS. 2 (b) and 3 (c). As illustrated, the molecular structure varies depending on the production method. This difference in molecular structure can be controlled by selecting a production method. For example, as described in the patent publication “Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2010-150532”, the complex elastic modulus measured by a rotary rheometer is used. Can also be used to estimate the molecular structure. More specifically, when the phase angle δ (G * = 0.1 MPa) at the absolute value G * = 0.1 MPa of the complex elastic modulus measured with a rotary rheometer is 40 degrees or more, the molecular structure is (b ) Or a linear structure as shown in (c) and has no long chain branching (b) or a structure having a small amount of long chain branching that does not affect the mechanical strength. (C) is shown. Further, when the phase angle δ (G * = 0.1 MPa) at the absolute value G * = 0.1 MPa of the complex elastic modulus measured with a rotary rheometer is lower than 40 degrees, the molecular structure is shown in the structure (a). Such a structure containing an excessive amount of long chain branching is exhibited, and the mechanical strength is inferior. The phase angle δ at the absolute value G * = 0.1 MPa of the complex elastic modulus measured with a rotary rheometer is affected by both the molecular weight distribution and the long chain branching, but Mw / Mn ≦ 4, more preferably Mw / Mn ≦. If it is limited to three, it becomes an index of the amount of long chain branching, and the larger the long chain branching, the smaller the δ (G * = 0.1 MPa) value. In addition, if Mw / Mn is 1.5 or more, the δ (G * = 0.1 MPa) value does not exceed 75 degrees even when there is no long chain branching.

[Consideration of results of Examples and Comparative Examples]
Examples 1 to 8 are thermoplastic resin compositions obtained by blending the polar group-containing olefin copolymer (A-1 to A-8) of the present invention with polyamide, and Comparative Example 1 using polyamide alone. On the other hand, impact resistance has been dramatically improved, and sufficient impact resistance is exhibited. On the other hand, in Comparative Example 2 which is a thermoplastic resin composition obtained by blending an olefin copolymer (LLDPE) not containing a polar group with respect to polyamide, the impact resistance is lower than that when the polyamide is used alone. It was. Furthermore, even in the case of Comparative Example 3, which is a thermoplastic resin composition in which a polar group-containing olefin copolymer (Lexpearl ET) produced by a high-pressure radical polymerization process is blended with polyamide, Almost the same as impact resistance, the impact resistance modification effect was very small. The fact is that the polar group-containing olefin copolymer according to the present invention, which is produced in the presence of a transition metal catalyst and has a linear molecular structure and a random copolymer, is used as a compatibilizing material. It has been clarified that the impact resistance of thermoplastic resins with polar groups can be dramatically improved.

Example 9 and Example 10 are thermoplastic resin compositions using the polar group-containing olefin copolymer (A-1, A-6) of the present invention as a compatibilizing material of polyamide and olefin resin (LLDPE). Compared to Comparative Example 1 in which polyamide is used alone or Comparative Example 2 in which polyamide and an olefin resin (LLDPE) are simply blended, the impact resistance is dramatically improved. This fact clarified that the polar group-containing olefin copolymer of the present invention exhibits a sufficient effect as a compatibilizer between a thermoplastic resin having a polar group such as polyamide and an olefin resin.

The reason why the impact resistance of the thermoplastic resin composition obtained by blending a polar group-containing olefin copolymer having a linear structure with a thermoplastic resin having a polar group as a compatibilizing material is not clearly understood, but probably The molecular structure of the polar group-containing olefin copolymer contained in the thermoplastic resin composition is considered to be required to be a linear structure. The impact resistance of a thermoplastic resin composition with a thermoplastic resin having a polar group is evaluated by a numerical value measured by a tensile impact test as exemplified in the method B of JIS K 7160-1996. It is considered that the numerical value measured in (1) is the sum of the chemical and physical bonding force at the interface between different materials and the cohesive force of the material or the stress at the time of deformation. The polar group-containing olefin copolymer produced by the high-pressure radical polymerization process has a highly branched molecular structure containing an excessive amount of short-chain branches and long-chain branches. Olefin resins having such a structure are known to have inferior mechanical properties, cohesive strength, impact resistance, etc., compared with olefin resins having a linear structure. It is inferred that the polymer also has this tendency. Even if the polar group-containing olefin copolymer produced by the high-pressure radical polymerization process has sufficient chemical bonds with different materials, the cohesive force is inferior to that of the polar group-containing olefin copolymer having a linear structure. As a result, it is considered that the impact resistance improving effect is inferior.

The significance and rationality of the configuration of the present invention (invention specific matter) and the superiority over the prior art are clarified by the good results of each of the above examples and the comparison with each comparative example.

  The compatibilizing material, the modifying material and the resin composition of the present invention are used for using a thermoplastic resin having a polar group such as various engineering plastics, and further performance modification such as tensile impact strength is required. It is particularly useful in various industrial fields because it can be used for applications that require a blended resin composition in which engineering plastics and polyolefin are compatibilized.
