A kind of reinforcement nucleating agent composition containing brucite
Technical field
The present invention relates to nucleator field, be specifically related to a kind of reinforcement nucleating agent composition containing brucite, relate to the thermoplastic containing this nucleating agent compositions simultaneously, particularly relate to the nylon containing this nucleating agent compositions.
Technical background
Thermoplastic refers to the plastics having thermoplastic as flowing, hardening by cooling characteristic, it is possible to by injecting, extrude and be blow-moulded into the injection-molded item with various uses, such as daily life goods, medical apparatus, electrical equipment, automobile and tubing pipeline etc..Thermoplastic polymer involved in the present invention includes but not limited to polyolefin (such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutene and any combination thereof), polyamide (such as nylon), polyurethanes, polyester (such as polyethylene terephthalate) and the like.
Polyamide is commonly called as nylon, and nylon is one of most important five big general engineering plastic, is in great demand.Principal item in nylon is nylon 6 (PA6) and nylon66 fiber (PA66), they are of a great variety by the nylon product extruding Shooting Technique obtained, as strengthened nylon, high-impact (toughness reinforcing) nylon, electroconductive nylon, fire-retardant nylon, nylon and other blend polymer and alloy etc..These nylon injection-molding products possess higher mechanical strength, heat-resisting, coefficient of friction is low, self lubricity, the various features of resistance to wet goods, is widely used in the field such as automobile, electric, domestic consumer product, household electrical appliance.In the production process of many nylon injection-molding products, the problems such as ubiquity crystalline rate relatively slow, demoulding difficulty, poor dimensional stability, for this, by adding nucleator, nylon is modified, improving the crystalline rate of nylon, nylon product had both shortened molding cycle, its demolding performace, dimensional stability and mechanical property and has also obtained and be effectively improved.The application of nucleater modified nylon is extensive, and they can be used as automobile and enter discharge, engine bonnet, gear, band, electronic connector, electric power connector etc..But, existing commercial nylon nucleator kind is little, and the nucleator with excellent application effect is then less.
At present, in commercial production, performance good nylon nucleator has the German Brueggemann Bruggolen nucleator P22 released and the nucleator CAV102 that Germany Clariant Clariant releases.Usual the paid close attention to nucleator correlated performance that adds in thermoplastic particularly nylon is mainly following aspect at present: 1, fast polymer crystallization speed and/or high crystallization temperature, in polymer melt cooling curing crystallization process, macromole long-chain is by the crystalline state of disorder to order, need longer relaxation time, crystalline rate and crystallization temperature are all low, and bigger spherocrystal can be formed, there is obvious interface between spherocrystal and cause different internal stress, when by external impacts, it is easily generated crackle and breaks, and after adding nucleator in the cooling procedure of polymer melt preparaton, utilize nucleator compound to provide the nucleating point used by crystal growth, crystallization rate is accelerated, so that carry out crystallization at relatively high temperatures, and high polymer peak crystallization temperature represents high nucleation effect;Its final body manufactures on parts now, high nucleation effect generally means that fast process-cycle and more preferably physical property such as hardness, elastic modelling quantity, hot strength, impact balance etc., in general, the rigidity of thermoplastic is characterized by bending modulus, and its toughness is characterized by impact strength;2, the high grade of transparency: be presently required thermoplastic articles self and there is good transparency, homodisperse nucleator diminishes in the plastic, crystal becomes trickle, the crystal of miniaturization decreases the scattering on crystalline portion and amorphous fraction interface, when crystalline size is less than 1 micron, the transparency sharply increases.
In addition, in the course of processing of thermoplastic particularly nylon, also tend to there is following puzzlement: 1, demolding performace: overwhelming majority nylon not easily demoulding in injection moulding process in the market, and mobility is not strong, puzzlement is brought to manufacture, therefore most at present processing adopts and adds releasing agent, but containing many cyclophanes cyanogen in releasing agent, it belongs to the composition of strict restriction in environmental requirement, in order to ensure safety, meet the requirement of environmental protection, the most direct way is exactly the raw material easily demoulding itself, it is not necessary to use releasing agent.
In prior art, thermoplastic nucleator is divided into organic and inorganic two kinds, organic nucleating agent mainly has phosphate metal salt, carboxylic metallic salt and glucitol derivative and polymer type, organic nucleating agent is generally of the compatibility good with fluoropolymer resin, it is possible to significantly improves the transparency of goods and shows gloss.Aromatic carboxylic acid's slaine utilizes beta crystal-type nucleater crystallization mechanism, it is possible to significantly improve the toughness of fluoropolymer resin, but property compatible is poor.Mineral-type nucleator mainly has Pulvis Talci, titanium dioxide, a nano silicon etc., and this kind of nucleator abundance is inexpensive, but the transparency and lustrous surface on goods has certain impact, and result of use is poor, and range of application is limited to.Brucite uses as auxiliary agent in high molecular polymer field and is widely used, in particular as acid-acceptor and nucleator synergist, use with the combination of other nucleator about it, CN102558683A discloses one polypropylene beta crystal form nucleating agent composition, mixed by the carboxylic metallic salt of beta crystal-type nucleater THPA and adjuvant calcium carbonate, brucite or Pulvis Talci, in addition, have no its relevant report used with the combination of other nucleator.
At present it is configured to the research of composite nucleating agent about two or more nucleators and is increasingly becoming focus.And be entrained in by multiple nucleator and be used in the region that chemical field is very difficult to predict together, unless through attempting, testing and complete relatively great amount of work, otherwise generally cannot know which kind of material is effective.
Being presently required and provide a kind of nucleator for thermoplastic, particularly nylon, it also improves to some extent while having fast polymer crystallization speed and/or high crystallization temperature, the high grade of transparency concurrently on demolding performace and thermal stability.Present invention applicant, through exploring for a long time, develops a kind of nucleating agent compositions, and described compositions compares its independent component, all has greatly improved in above-mentioned performance.
