Description

Fast Heat-up Thermoplastic Polymer Composition and Preparation Thereof BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention The present invention is generally related to theremoplastic polymer composition, and more particularly to thermoplastic polymer composition and preparation thereof wherein the thermoplastic polymer composition can be employed to fabricate almost achromatic bottle and the bottle preform made of mentioned thermoplastic polymer composition can be fast heat-up before blowing.

2. Description of the Prior Art Thermoplastic polymer, especially polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or PET co-polymer, is well known to be used on fabricating films, bottles, or other containers for food or drink. Generally, bottle manufacturing comprises two stages. Taking PET bottle manufacturing as example, the first stage is injecting PET into a mold for forming bottle preform, and the second stage is injecting compressed air into the mold for blowing the bottle preform to bottle.
In the second stage, the bottle preform should be heated to about 100 C for blowing, so that the reheating rate becomes the rate-determining step of the second stage. Commercially, quartz tube is used for the mentioned reheating, and the wave-length of electro-magnetic wave from the quartz tube is mostly between 500 nm to 2000 nm.

However, the absorption of electro-magnetic wave for PET is not good in the mentioned wave-length range. Mostly, the electro-magnetic wave during reheating is absorbed by impurities or additives in bottle preform, such as catalyst residues or other impurities. It means that the bottle preform can majorly absorb the electro-magnetic wave from the quartz tube by the impurities or additives. Therefore, reheating time is highly related to the composition of the bottle perform. When PET composition includes more impurities or additives, the reheating rate becomes faster, and the haze of the bottle preform is increased. Moreover, if the color of the additives is deeper, the electro-magnetic wave absorbing ability of the bottle preform is better, and the reheating time of the bottle preform is shorter. Cause of employing additives with deep color in the bottle preform, the produced bottle will not be transparent and achromatic.
The mentioned bottle cannot be satisfied in the recently commercial requirement, especially for Asia marketing requirement, on achromatic bottle or other containers.

There are many patents disclosed how to increase electromagnetic radiation absorption and decrease reheating time by employing additives in thermoplastic polymer composition. For instance, in US Pat. 4408004, carbon black is employed as additives for decreasing reheating time. Some iron oxide also can approach the mentioned purpose, such as Fe2O3 disclosed in US Pat. 4420581. In US Pat. 5419936, reducing antimony trioxide into antimony metal is used to increase reheating rate. Some anthraquinone based dyes are mentioned in US Pat. 4481314 for the mentioned purpose. In US Pat.
6660792, some iron compounds that will not participate in the reaction, such as FeP, FeSi, or their combination, are used to decrease reheating time. US Pat. 7189777 disclosed that activated carbon is employed for increasing reheating rate. All the mentioned additives are blackbody or graybody absorption, and the additives will absorb full spectrum wave. The blackbody absorption or graybody absorption of the additives will cause that the product formed thereof, such as bottles or other type container, becomes un-acceptable on the product color and haze. The more the additives is added, the more un-acceptable influence is caused. In some cases, the mentioned influence can be decreased by modifying the particle size of the additives. But, the mentioned cannot be completely avoided by modifying particle size.

Besides, US Pat. 5529744 disc; osed a bottle made of thermoplastic polymer including metal particles, such as Sb, Sri, Ag, Au, Cu, As, Cd, Hg, Pt, and/or Pd. In this mentioned patent, reducing agent and the compounds with the mentioned metals are added in polymerized process, and the metal compounds are reduced into metal particles, especially Sb, to increase the reheating rate of the polymers.
But, according to this US patent, the absolute yellowness of the bottle or other type container produced from the polymer is too large to obtain achromatic product.

Though all the mentioned additives can increase reheating time of bottle preform, save energy, and improve manufacturing performance, the commercial requirement of achromatic containers still cannot be satisfied through those mentioned additives. Therefore, it is important to provide a thermoplastic polymer composition that can not only be fast heat-up during manufacturing but also produce almost achromatic product.

General detection:
Unless additional description, all the detection are going through with the following methods under normal temperature and normal atmosphere.

1. Intrinsic Viscosity measurement: dissolving 0.1 g sample into 25 cc solvent, wherein the solvent includes phenol and CC14 in volume ratio 3:2, and then measuring the solution with Ubbelohde viscosity meter at 30 C.
2. L*, a*, and b*: measured by Macbeth color eye 2145 spectrometer with 1976 CIE L* a* b* color presentation, the operating parameter and the meaning of L*, a*, and b* are as the above-mentioned description.
3. Haze: measured with a HAZE SUGA instrument by method ASTM-D 1003.
4. "Percent Reheat improvement" is calculated as following:
% Reheat improvement = (bottle preform surface temperature of comparison example - bottle preform surface temperature of example) / (bottle preform surface temperature of example) x 100%
Example 1 Liquid polymerization stage 38 Kg terephthalic acid (TPA), 0.9 Kg isophthalic acid (IPA), and 18.16 Kg ethylene glycol (EG) with 1.125 g aluminum particles (d5o is 2 1 m) are added into a stirring tank, and the mixture is stirred to become a paste. The paste is poured into an esterification tank, and the temperature of the esterification tank is raised with an end temperature at 250 C for 6.5 hours for processing esterification.
When over 95% the esterification degree, a polymer product is obtained wherein the polymer product is polyester with polymerization degree about 7, and the number of average of molecular weight is about 1350.
The polymer product is transferred to a polymerization tank, and 1260 g catalyst (Sb203) and 35 PPM anti-oxidant (H3PO4) are added into the polymerization tank. The polymerization tank is heated and vacuumed until the intrinsic viscosity of the mixture is about 0.6 dL/g (number of average of molecular weight is about 19000). After executing cutting, PET melt state polycondensation co-polyester pellet doped with aluminum particles is obtained. The added amount of the aluminum particles is 25 PPM based on PET weight.

Solid phase polymerization After pouring the melt state polycondensation pellet into a solid phase polymerizing tank, the temperature of the mentioned tank is raised to 85 C for drying for 2.5 hours. Then, the temperature of the tank is raised to 105 C for drying for 3 hours. Subsequently, the temperature of the tank is raised to 150 C for pre-crystallizing for 2 hours. Then, the temperature of the tank is raised to 235 C until the intrinsic viscosity of the mixture is about 0.85 dL/g (number of average of molecular weight is about 31,000). After cutting, PET solid state polymerization co-polyester pellet doped with aluminum particles is obtained.

Because EG is overdosed and part of EG are dehydrated to form DEG during polymerization, the repeat unit of the PET co-polyester from solid state polymerization can be identified through calculating the added amount of TPA and IPA, wherein the added TPA and IPA are totally reacted, and employing GC (Perkin Elmer auto system) to measuring the DEG amount in the co-polyester. In the PET
co-polyester, based on the total mole of the repeat unit A, the repeat unit A derived from TPA and IPA are separately 97.7 mol% and 2.3 mol%. Based on the total mole of the repeat unit B, the repeat unit B
derived from EG and DEG are separately 97.6 mol% and 2.4 mol%.
