Background technology
Copolyester is the macromolecular material that a kind of crystallization is slow, transparency is high, as PCTG, PCT etc., not only there is excellent resistance to chemical corrosion, and there is higher impact strength, therefore PCTG is widely used in packaging field, as cosmetic packaging bottle, and the dirt bucket of dust catcher, cleaner solution tank etc.No matter the PCTG material, in the application process of dust catcher, cleaner, is dirt bucket or solution tank, and the requirement of drop test is arranged, and especially the drop test of solution tank, require PCTG to have better impact strength.
In prior art, the forming method of PCTG copolyester container is: dry PCTG copolyester is joined to melting in injection machine, then the PCTG copolyester of melting is injected to mould cavity, cooling forming.Wherein, about the processing temperature setting of injection machine, what EASTMAN company was recommended is 249 ℃~271 ℃, and the processing temperature that SK company is recommended is chewed 245 ℃ of temperature, 245 ℃ of the anterior temperature of barrel, 245 ℃ of the temperature in barrel middle part, 210 ℃ of barrel rear part temperatures for penetrating.About the mould cavity temperature, the material supplier recommends 50 ℃.According to existing forming method and condition, the impact strength of prepared PCTG copolyester container is poor, is difficult for maybe can not passing through the requirement of container drop test.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, and a kind of forming method of improved PCTG copolyester container is provided, and the method gained container has excellent impact strength, and anti-dropping capability is good.
For solving the problems of the technologies described above, the present invention takes following technical scheme:
A kind of forming method of PCTG copolyester container, it is that PCTG copolyester raw material is joined to melting in injection machine, then the PCTG copolyester of melting is injected to mould cavity, cooling forming particularly, is controlled the temperature of die cavity below 35 ℃.
Preferably, the temperature in controlling diaphragm chamber is between 10 ℃~35 ℃.More preferably, the temperature in controlling diaphragm chamber is between 25 ℃~35 ℃.
What preferably, the mould of PCTG copolyester adopted drop gate (style big water gap) advances the glue mode; What should not adopt hot runner advances the glue mode, because the lasting melting high temperature of hot runner can make PCTG that serious degraded occurs, thereby reduces the impact strength of PCTG copolyester.Further, injection machine of the present invention can be commonly used those in this area.Injection machine adopts the Universal screw rod model: screw compression is than being 2.5:1~3.5:1, and L/D is 18:1~20:1.
Preferably, the processing temperature of injection machine is set as penetrating and chews 235 ± 2 ℃ of the anterior temperature of 265 ± 2 ℃ of temperature, barrel, 225 ± 2 ℃ of the temperature in barrel middle part, 215 ± 2 ℃ of barrel rear part temperatures.Under this processing conditions, the PCTG container has higher impact strength.
Water content when according to a preferred aspect of the present invention, described PCTG copolyester raw material joins injection machine is below 0.03wt%.
According to a concrete aspect: before in PCTG copolyester raw material is put into to injection machine, make the vacuum drier inner drying 4~6 hours that PCTG copolyester raw material is 65 ℃~75 ℃ at Temperature Setting.
According to another concrete aspect: before in PCTG copolyester raw material is put into to injection machine, first make the vacuum drier inner drying 4~6 hours that PCTG copolyester raw material is 65 ℃~75 ℃ at Temperature Setting, and then keep dry state in the input dehumidifying heat pump, automatically join in injection machine finally by dehumidifying heat pump, remain on below 0.03wt% thereby control water content always.
Preferably, the Temperature Setting of vacuum drier is 70 ℃~72 ℃.Traditional employing dehumidifying heat pump carries out dry method to the PCTG copolyester, can't reach and make in the PCTG copolyester water content below 0.03wt%.And show through inventor's lot of experiments, if PCTG copolyester raw material water content is below 0.03wt%, its depolymerization under molten condition is fainter, impact resistance to container does not have much affect, if PCTG copolyester water content is higher than 0.03wt%, depolymerization reaction will occur rapidly in it under molten condition, and the shock resistance of final container is caused to adverse effect.
According to the present invention, described PCTG copolyester raw material be this area for the preparation of container normal the employing, commercially available acquisition.Commercially available PCTG can meet the demands, the typical trade mark: the JN200 of SK company, the DN011 of Yi Shi Man.
Due to the enforcement of above technical scheme, the present invention compared with prior art has following advantage:
The PCTG copolyester container of taking the inventive method to obtain has excellent impact strength, and anti-drop is good.
