Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present invention provides a light transmissible, high density elastic sound barrier composition having a specific gravity of greater than 1.8 which comprises: 100 wt. parts of a thermoplastic resin selected from the group consisting of poly-vinyl chloride, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, poly-vinylidene chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl acetate, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyester and poly-urethane or a mixture of the thermoplastic resin and a plasticizer and 100 to 500 wt. parts of spherical lead glass having an aver-age diameter of 40 to 120 µm and a refractive index ND of 1.5-2.2.

Description

` ~073~1L9S
The present invention relates to a light transmissible high density elastic resin composition which has an excellent sound-barrier effect and sheets formed therefrom. ~ `
Heretofore, it has been usual to use a lead plate or a sheet of a mixture of a thermoplastic resin and a powdery metal having high density such as lead, as a sound-barrier product.
However, such a conventional sound-barrier product is opaque and when used in a room, it is necessary to provide artificial light ~;
even in the daytime.
The present invention provides a resin composition having excellent light transmissibility and sound-barrier effect ~
for both aerial sound waves and solid sound waves. ~ .
I According to the present invention there is provided a ¦ light transmissible, high density elastic sound barrier compo-' sition having a specific gravity of greater than 1.8 which com-J prises: 100 wt. parts of a thermoplastic resin selected from the ~ group consisting of polyvinyl chloride, vinyl chloride-vinyl -~.
acetate copolymer, polyvinylidene chloride, polyethylene, poly- ~ `
propylene, polyvinyl acetate, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyester and polyurethane or a mixture of the thermoplastic resin and a plasticizer and 100 to 500 wt. parts of spherical lead glass having an average diameter of 40 to 120 ~m and a refractive index ND of 1.5-2.2.
As used here the term of "light transmissible" include "semi-transmissible" materials and is not limite~ to transparent materials.
The thermoplastic resins used in the invention include polyvinylchloride, a vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer, ;;
polyvinylidene, chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl acetate, an ethylene-vinylacetate copolymer, nylon, a polyester and a polyurethane. The degree of polymerization of the thermo-plastic resin is preferably in a range of 1000 - 2500.

- 1- ~ ;
~,.....

-- ~973~

The plasticizers used in the composition of the present invention include dibutylphthalate, dihexyl phthalate, diethyl-hexyl phthalate, dioctyl phthalate, diisooctyl phthalate, butyl-octyl phthalate, dioctyl adipate r diisooctyl adipate, didecyl adipate, diethylhexyl adipate, diethylhexyl azelate diisooctyl azelate, tricresyl phosphate, diethyleneglycol dipelargonate, -and an epoxy type plasticizer.
The plasticizer is added to the resin e.g. polyvinyl chloride to impart softness thereto. The amount of the plastic-izer is preferably in a range of from 50 ~ 150 wt. part per 100 wt. parts of the remaining polyvinyl chlorideO
The amount of the lead glass is suitably in a rangeof from 100 - 500 wt. parts to 100 wt. parts of the thermoplastic resin or a mixture of the thermoplastic resin and the plasticizer, so as to yield the resin composition having a specific gravity ; of higher than 1.8. When the amount of the lead glass is less ; than 100 wt. parts, the specific gravity of the resin composition is too low to provide a sufficient sound-barrier effect. When the amount of the lead glass is greater than 500 wt. par-ts, physical properties such as a tensile strength of the resin com-position are disadvantageously low. It is especially preferable to combine 300 - 400 wt. parts of the lead glass with 100 w~.
parts of the thermoplastic resin or the mixture of the thermo-plastic resin and the plasticizer.
The refractive index of the lead glass is preferably near that of the thermoplastic resin. The difference of refrac-tive index of the lead glass to that of the resin composition is preferably in a range of from 0 - 0.8 ~ND). The refractive index of the thermoplastic resin is usually in a range of from 1.4 - 1.6 (ND). Accordingly, it is desirable to be from 1.5 -
2.2 (ND) especially from 1.5 - 1.8 (ND) of the refractive index.

When a glass having super high refractive index, e.g. greater .~ .

1~73~5 than 2.2, is used, the central refractive luminance of the powder glass is too high to aecrease light transmittance.
The lead glass used in the invention is spherical (beads), because the spherical particles of the glass impart a lens effect to increase light transmittance The average dia-meter of the lead glass is in the range 40 -- 120 ~.
When the average diameter of the particles is less than 40 ~l, the light transmittance is reduced because of diffuse reflection. When the average diameter of the particles :LS ' higher than 120 ~, -the physical properties such as tensile strength of the resin composition are reduced. The average ;~
diameter of the powdery glass is thus from 40 - 120 ~. The specific gravity of the lead glass is usually higher than 2.4, ' ' ':
preferably higher than 3.0, so as to increase the density of the resin composition and to impart the sound-barrier effect, ' and it is selected depending upon a ratio of the lead glass.
It is possible to add a transparent pigment, a dye, ' a stabilizer, a lubricant, parting agent, etc. to the resin composltion of the invention, if desirable. It is preferable to select a stabilizer having transparency such as epoxy veget~
able oils, Cd-Ba-Zn type organic composites and organo-tin com-pounds.
A sheet of the resin composition of the invention can be prepared by kneading to disperse the powdery glass by means of an extruder, a hot-kneader or a hot-roller mill and then, pelletizing it and sheeting by means of a calender roller and an extruder. The sheet of the resin composition can be also prepared by means of hot-roller mill to directly form the sheet by kneading to disperse the lead glass and extruding to form the sheet.

-~73~

The resulting sheet may be used as a light transmiss-ible sound-barrier sheet. The sheet made of the resin compos~
ition of the invention preferably has a thickness of 0.4 - 2 mm, and a specific gravity of more than 1.8, a total light transmit-tance of more than 10%, a tensile strength of more than 30 Kg/cm and is useable as a sound-barrier product. It is preferable to reinforce the sheet of the resin composition of the present invention with a split film nonwoven fabric which is prepared by stretching a film of a ~hermoplastic resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene to form split fibers with fine cracks having lengths of 0.1 - 0.3 mm to the stretching direction and lamin-ating the sheets in transverse and longitudinal directions, under hot-melt bonding.
The sheet of the resin composition of the invention can suitably be used as a sound-barrier curtain, accordion type door in a sickroom and a consultation room in a hospital, a lecture room in school, a living room and a workroom of a factory.
The sheet can be also used as a X-ray shield board. The present invention will be further illustrated by the following Examples in which the term of "part" designates "part by weight".
EXAMPLE 1:

manufactured by Dainippon Ink Chemical I~abushike Kaisha) and a Cd-Ba-Zn type organic stabilizer.
The mixture was kneaded at 100C for l hour. The mix-ture was mixed with 450 parts of glass beads of specific gravity of 4.8; refrac~ive index of 1.8; and average diameter of 70 and the mixture was kneaded in a continuous kneader at 160C
for about 2 minutes, was extruded through a die opening having ~ 3~9~i ;

a diameter of 3mm and was cut to form pellets. The pellets were kneaded by a mixing roller mill at 160C to extrude it as a sheet having a thickness of 1 mm. The glass beads used were those supplied under the trademark U~3-46J manufactured by Union Glass Co. and will be referred to hereinafter as glass ' beads A.
