Description

Copolyester composition
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a copolyester composition having a specific copolymerization composition and glass transition temperature and showing excellent water-absorbing swelling properties in hot water.
Background
Functional fibers are widely used not only for clothing applications but also for interior decoration, vehicle interior, industrial applications, and the like, and are extremely valuable industrially. On the other hand, the required characteristics are diversified, and there are cases where the single-component filaments made of a single-component polymer cannot cope with the diversified characteristics. Under such circumstances, development of composite fibers obtained by combining a plurality of polymers has been widely conducted.
In the composite fiber, it is known that a filament having a super-fine odd-shaped cross section obtained by splitting a sheath-core type composite fiber having an odd-shaped core formed of a two-component polymer is highly valuable as a high-density woven fabric having a smooth texture. In general, the method of shrinking, swelling, or dissolving out a single polymer component by a chemical agent is adopted for splitting of a composite fiber (patent documents 1 and 2). In addition, for the purpose of reducing costs without using chemical agents, the following proposals are made: a water-swellable polyether ester polymer which can be split into fibers by hot water treatment alone when applied to a profiled core-sheath composite fiber (patent document 3).

Disclosure of Invention
Problems to be solved by the invention
The deformed core-sheath type composite fibers described in patent documents 1 and 2 have a problem that the process is complicated and the cost is high because a chemical treatment process and a recovery process are required at the time of fiber cutting. Therefore, when the water-swellable polyether ester polymer proposed in patent document 3 for solving the problem is applied to a shaped core-sheath type composite fiber, a composite fiber having good splittability can be obtained by only hot water treatment when the composite ratio of the composition is 50%.
However, the following problems are judged to exist: if the compounding ratio of the composition is reduced to 65% or less for the purpose of improving the fiber strength or the like, the swelling performance in hot water is insufficient and the swelling ratio is only 43%, and therefore fiber cutting failure is likely to occur as compared with a chemical treatment application. Further, it was found that the following problems still remain: since 50% of polyethylene glycol is copolymerized in the composition, the heat resistance is poor at a usual spinning temperature of polyethylene terephthalate of 290 ℃.
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a copolyester composition that exhibits an excellent swelling ratio and a high viscosity retention rate. Specifically, the object is to provide a copolyester composition which exhibits an excellent swelling ratio of 60% or more in hot water at 90 ℃ and has a viscosity retention of 75% or more when molten and retained at 290 ℃ for 20 minutes.
Means for solving the problems
The above object can be achieved by a copolyester composition comprising a copolyester obtained from a dicarboxylic acid and/or an ester-forming derivative thereof and ethylene glycol, the copolyester composition having the following composition: the terephthalic acid and/or ester forming derivatives of terephthalic acid component relative to all acid components is more than 40.0 mol% and less than 68.0 mol%, containing metal sulfonate group of benzene two formic acid and/or ester forming derivatives of benzene two formic acid components relative to all acid components is more than 4.0 mol% and less than 10.0 mol%, and the copolymer polyester composition by differential scanning calorimetry analysis of the glass transition temperature of more than 50 ℃ and less than 75 ℃.
Effects of the invention
According to the present invention, a copolyester composition having a high viscosity retention rate and an excellent swelling ratio can be obtained by setting the copolymerization composition and the glass transition temperature to specific ranges. Specifically, a copolyester composition exhibiting a swelling ratio of 60% or more in hot water and excellent in heat resistance at a melt spinning temperature of polyethylene terephthalate of 290 ℃ can be obtained.
Detailed Description
A copolyester composition according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a copolyester obtained from a dicarboxylic acid and/or an ester-forming derivative thereof, and ethylene glycol, and has the following composition: the terephthalic acid and/or the ester-forming derivative component thereof is 40.0 mol% or more and 68.0 mol% or less with respect to the total acid components, the isophthalic acid containing a metal sulfonate group and/or the ester-forming derivative component thereof is 4.0 mol% or more and less than 10.0 mol% with respect to the total acid components, and the glass transition temperature of the copolyester composition as determined by differential scanning calorimetry is 50 ℃ or more and 75 ℃ or less.
The dicarboxylic acid may be terephthalic acid. The ester-forming derivatives of terephthalic acid include alkyl esters such as methyl ester (DMT, etc.) and ethyl ester thereof. For example, methyl ester is preferably used in view of excellent polycondensation reactivity.
The composition ratio of the terephthalic acid component to the total acid components is 40.0 mol% or more in view of the viscosity retention of 75% or more when the polyester composition is melted and retained at 290 ℃ for 20 minutes. On the other hand, the composition ratio of the terephthalic acid component is 68.0 mol% or less based on the total acid components, from the viewpoint that the crystal structure derived from the terephthalic acid component in the composition is relaxed, the intermolecular binding force is lowered, and the water-absorbing swelling property is exhibited.
In order to impart more excellent heat resistance, the composition ratio of the terephthalic acid component is preferably 50.0 mol% or more, and more preferably 55.0 mol% or more, based on the total acid components. In addition, from the viewpoint of obtaining excellent water absorption swelling properties, the composition ratio of the terephthalic acid component is preferably 65.0 mol% or less, and more preferably 60.0 mol% or less, with respect to the total acid components.
Examples of the isophthalic acid having a metal sulfonate group include sodium salt of 4-sulfoisophthalic acid, potassium salt of 4-sulfoisophthalic acid, sodium salt of 5-sulfoisophthalic acid, potassium salt of 5-sulfoisophthalic acid, and barium salt of 5-sulfoisophthalic acid. Among them, from the viewpoint of excellent polymerizability, a sodium salt of 5-sulfoisophthalic acid and a potassium salt of 5-sulfoisophthalic acid are preferable, and a sodium salt of 5-sulfoisophthalic acid is particularly preferable. In addition, these containing metal sulfonate group benzene two formic acid can use 1 kind of chemical structure, can also use a combination of 2 or more substances.
As the ester-forming derivative of isophthalic acid containing a metal sulfonate group, there may be mentioned: alkyl esters such as methyl esters (e.g., sodium dimethyl-5-sulfoisophthalate (SSIA)), ethyl esters thereof, and the like; acid halides such as acid chlorides and acid bromides; and isophthalic anhydride and the like. For example, from the viewpoint of excellent polycondensation reactivity, alkyl esters such as methyl ester and ethyl ester are preferred, and methyl ester is particularly preferred.
The composition ratio of the isophthalic acid component containing a metal sulfonate group is 4.0 mol% or more and less than 10.0 mol% with respect to the total acid components, from the viewpoint of imparting appropriate hydrophilicity and cationic crosslinking structure to the polyester composition and exhibiting water-absorbing swelling properties. When the amount is less than 4.0 mol%, the cationic crosslinked structure is not sufficiently formed, and the desired water-absorbing swelling property cannot be obtained. When the amount is 10.0 mol% or more, the hydrophilicity becomes excessive, and dissolution in hot water occurs earlier than swelling, so that the intended water absorption swelling performance cannot be obtained.
From the viewpoint of obtaining a polyester composition having more excellent swelling properties, the composition ratio of the isophthalic acid component containing a metal sulfonate group is preferably 9.5 mol% or less, more preferably 8.0 mol% or less, and further preferably 6.0 mol% or more and 8.0 mol% or less with respect to the total acid components.
In order to impart excellent water-absorbing swelling properties to the copolyester composition of the present invention, the glass transition temperature of the composition as determined by differential scanning calorimetry is 50 ℃ or higher. When the glass transition temperature of the copolyester composition of the present invention is less than 50 ℃, the copolyester composition softens in hot water and undergoes flow deformation and dissolution, and the intended water-absorbing swelling performance cannot be obtained. Further, since the pellets are melted and fused, the drying treatment at 60 ℃ or higher cannot be performed, and the drying time becomes long, which deteriorates the productivity.
On the other hand, when the glass transition temperature of the copolyester composition of the present invention is higher than 75 ℃, the molecular motion in hot water is suppressed and the water-swelling property is not exhibited, and from this point of view, the glass transition temperature is 75 ℃ or lower.
The glass transition temperature of the copolyester composition of the present invention is preferably 65 ℃ or lower from the viewpoint of excellent water-absorbing swelling properties, and more preferably 55 ℃ or higher, and even more preferably 60 ℃ or higher from the viewpoint of enabling drying at a higher temperature. The glass transition temperature of the copolyester composition can be set in a desired range by appropriately adjusting the composition of monomers such as dicarboxylic acid and ethylene glycol, polymerization reaction conditions, and the like.
The copolyester composition of the present invention comprises a terephthalic acid component, an isophthalic acid component having a metal sulfonate group, and a dicarboxylic acid component copolymerizable with these components. Examples of the other dicarboxylic acid component include, but are not limited to, alkyl esters of isophthalic acid, naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, adipic acid, sebacic acid, and/or dimethyl isophthalate (DMI).
As the other dicarboxylic acid component, 1 kind of compound may be used, or 2 or more kinds may be combined, and the kind of compound may be selected so that the glass transition temperature of the copolyester composition does not deviate from the range of 50 ℃ to 75 ℃.

More preferably 25 mol% or more, and still more preferably 35 mol% or more. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of sufficiently securing the heat resistance, it is more preferably 56 mol% or less, and still more preferably 50 mol% or less.
In the copolyester composition of the present invention, isophthalic acid, naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, and/or an alkyl ester thereof are more preferably used from the viewpoint of efficiently suppressing the formation of a crystal structure derived from a terephthalic acid component and obtaining excellent water-absorbing swelling properties, and isophthalic acid and/or an alkyl ester thereof are still more preferably used from the viewpoint of easily making the glass transition temperature 50 ℃ or higher and 75 ℃ or lower.
In the copolyester composition of the present invention, the heat of crystal fusion as determined by differential scanning calorimetry is preferably 10J/g or less, from the viewpoint of exhibiting excellent water-absorbing swelling properties. From the viewpoint of exhibiting more excellent water-absorbing swelling properties, the heat of crystal fusion is more preferably 5J/g or less, still more preferably 2J/g or less, and most preferably 0J/g (amorphous). The heat of crystal fusion of the copolyester composition can be set in a desired range by appropriately adjusting the composition of monomers such as dicarboxylic acid and ethylene glycol, polymerization reaction conditions, and the like.
The copolyester composition of the present invention may contain a polyalkylene oxide compound represented by the following chemical formula (1) and/or a one-side-capped polyalkylene oxide compound represented by the following chemical formula (2) within a range in which the glass transition temperature does not deviate from the range of 50 ℃ to 75 ℃ and the heat resistance at 290 ℃ is not impaired. The polyalkylene oxide compound contained may be copolymerized into the polyester or may be present in the polyester composition in an unreacted state. The polyester containing a polyalkylene oxide compound is excellent in molecular mobility and hydrophilicity, and can improve water-absorbing swelling properties.

The kind of the particles to be included is arbitrary. Specific examples of the inorganic particles include inorganic particles such as silica, titania, calcium carbonate, barium sulfate, alumina, and zirconia, and organic polymer particles such as crosslinked polystyrene. Among these particles, titanium dioxide particles are preferred because they are excellent in dispersibility in polymers and low in cost.
The copolyester composition of the present invention can be synthesized by any method. For example, the same procedure as in the following general method for synthesizing polyethylene terephthalate can be used.
Polyethylene terephthalate can be synthesized by a first-stage reaction in which a glycol ester of terephthalic acid or its oligomer is produced by an esterification reaction between terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol or an ester exchange reaction between a lower alkyl ester of terephthalic acid represented by dimethyl terephthalate and ethylene glycol, and a second-stage reaction in which a polycondensation reaction is carried out by heating the reaction product of the first stage under reduced pressure in the presence of a polymerization catalyst until a desired degree of polymerization is achieved.
In the present invention, a copolymerization component is added in any of the above-mentioned steps or between the steps. The timing of adding the copolymerization component may be any timing before the esterification reaction, or during the transesterification reaction, from the end of the transesterification reaction to the start of the polycondensation reaction, or to the substantial end of the polycondensation reaction.
With respect to the esterification, the reaction proceeds even in the absence of a catalyst. In the transesterification reaction, it is usually carried out by using a lithium compound such as lithium acetate dihydrate (LAH), a manganese compound such as manganese acetate tetrahydrate (MN), a calcium compound, a magnesium compound, a zinc compound, or the like as a catalyst, and after the transesterification reaction is substantially completed, a phosphorus compound such as Phosphoric Acid (PA) is added for the purpose of deactivating the catalyst used in the reaction. As the polycondensation catalyst, antimony compounds such as antimony trioxide, titanium compounds, germanium compounds, and the like can be used.
The copolyester composition of the present invention can be used as a constituent of a conjugate fiber. The composite fiber described herein means that 2 or more polymers are separately present in 1 fiber.

A copolyester composition was obtained in the same manner as in example 1 except that the molar contents of DMT, SSIA and dimethyl isophthalate used in example 1 were changed as shown in Table 3.
The composition obtained in comparative example 3 had insufficient SSIA molar content, and therefore, had insufficient water-absorbing swelling properties. The hot water swelling ratio was only 20%, and the releasability from the polyethylene terephthalate composition was not exhibited.
Comparative example 4
A copolyester composition was obtained in the same manner as in example 1 except that the molar contents of DMT, SSIA and dimethyl isophthalate used in example 1 were changed as shown in Table 3 and polyethylene glycol was added as shown in Table 3 before the polycondensation reaction.
In the case of the composition obtained in comparative example 4, since the SSIA molar content was too large and dissolution in hot water occurred earlier than swelling, the water-absorbing swelling property was not exhibited.
Comparative example 5
A copolyester composition was obtained in the same manner as in example 1, except that the molar contents of DMT and SSIA used in example 1 were changed as shown in Table 3, and that one-side methyl-terminated polyethylene glycol was added as shown in Table 3 before the polycondensation reaction.
The composition obtained in comparative example 5 used a large amount of one-side methyl-terminated polyethylene glycol (average number of repeating units n: 90) having a large effect of lowering the glass transition temperature, and the resulting copolyester composition had a glass transition temperature of less than 50 ℃ and flow deformation and dissolution occurred earlier than swelling in hot water, and thus the intended water-absorbing swelling performance could not be obtained. The hot water swelling ratio was only 40%, and the releasability from the polyethylene terephthalate composition was also insufficient. In addition, the drying temperature is low (55 ℃), and the viscosity retention rate is less than 75% when the glass is melted and retained at 290 ℃ for 20 minutes.
Comparative example 6
A copolyester composition was obtained in the same manner as in example 1 except that the molar contents of DMT and SSIA used in example 1 were changed as shown in Table 3, and a part of dimethyl isophthalate added was changed to dimethyl naphthalenedicarboxylate as shown in Table 3.
The composition obtained in comparative example 6 had the effect that the naphthalenedicarboxylic acid component having a large effect of increasing the glass transition temperature was not used in combination with the polyalkylene oxide compound, and the resulting copolyester composition had a glass transition temperature of more than 75 ℃ and the molecular motion in hot water was suppressed, so that the intended water-absorbing swelling performance could not be obtained. The hot water swelling ratio was only 10%, and the releasability from the polyethylene terephthalate composition was not exhibited.
Comparative example 7
A copolyester composition was obtained in the same manner as in example 1 except that the molar contents of DMT and SSIA used in example 1 were changed as shown in Table 3, a part of dimethyl isophthalate added was changed to dimethyl adipate as shown in Table 3, and polyethylene glycol shown in Table 3 was added before the polycondensation reaction.
The composition obtained in comparative example 7 had an excessive amount of SSIA by mole and used a large amount of an adipic acid component having a large effect of lowering the glass transition temperature, and therefore, due to this effect, flow deformation and dissolution occurred in hot water before swelling, and the intended water-absorbing swelling performance could not be obtained. The hot water swelling ratio was only 30%, and the releasability from the polyethylene terephthalate composition was also insufficient. In addition, the drying temperature is low (40 ℃), and the viscosity retention rate is less than 75% when the product is melted and retained at 290 ℃ for 20 minutes.
Comparative example 8
2.5kg of DMT (95.0 mol% based on the total acid components), 0.3kg of SSIA (5.0 mol% based on the total acid components), 5.0kg of polyethylene glycol having an average number of repeating units n of 90 (50 mass% based on the obtained copolyester composition), 3.7kg of 1, 4-Butanediol (BG), and 9.0g of titanium tetra-n-butoxide were added, and EI reaction was carried out while distilling off methanol at 140 to 200 ℃. After 210 minutes, 25.0g of Irganox1010 was added, the temperature was raised to 250 ℃ and the pressure was reduced. The pressure was gradually reduced to 0.1kPa or less, and 120 minutes after the start of the polymerization, the reaction system was purged with nitrogen, returned to normal pressure, the polycondensation reaction was stopped, extruded from a nozzle in the form of strands, cooled in a water tank, and pelletized to obtain pellets, thereby obtaining a copolyester composition.
Since the terephthalic acid component is excessive, the polyester composition forms a firm crystal structure and does not exhibit the intended water-absorbing swelling property. The hot water swelling ratio was only 30%, and the releasability from the polyethylene terephthalate composition was also insufficient.
Comparative example 9
The same procedure as in example 1 was repeated except that the molar contents of DMT and SSIA used in example 1 were changed as shown in Table 3 and dimethyl isophthalate (a copolymerization-forming dicarboxylic acid component) was not added, and the resulting copolyester composition was post-kneaded with polyethylene glycol as shown in Table 3 to obtain a copolymerized/kneaded polyester.
Since the terephthalic acid component is excessive, the polyester composition forms a firm crystal structure and does not exhibit the intended water-absorbing swelling property. The hot water swelling ratio was only 40%, and the releasability from the polyethylene terephthalate composition was also insufficient.
