Description

Composition and application thereof
Invention field
The present invention relates to a kind of composition and application thereof.Particularly, the present invention relates to a kind of composition and this foamed products that foamed products (uncrosslinked or crosslinked foamed products) can be provided, described foamed products has the Asker C hardness of 20-80, low proportion, low compression deformation (CS), good tear strength, bounce impact elasticity and mouldability.
Background of invention
The technology of using the crosslinked foaming product to obtain low-gravity (promptly in light weight), softness and high mechanical strength resin is widely used in interior of building or external decorative material, trolley part (as interior trim and glass run channel), wrapping material, daily necessities etc.Reason is the crosslinking reaction bonding molecular chain by resin, and the feasible lightweight performance that may obtain resin by foaming, and the decline of inhibition physical strength are although only obtain the reduction that the lightweight performance can cause the resin physical strength by foamex.
The crosslinked foaming product of resin also is used for the parts of footwear and footwear such as the sole of sports shoes (mainly being the end), reason be need in light weight, can suppress the distortion that life-time service causes, have high mechanical strength and bounce impact elasticity, can bear the material of abominable working conditions.
The crosslinked foaming product that always used ethylene in the past is as sole, and is known.The problem that exists by the crosslinked foaming product that uses ethylene to obtain be its than great, compressive set is big, therefore, when when the sole, sole is heavier, and if during the sole life-time service, they can be compressed, and lose physical strength such as bounce impact elasticity.
In the national bulletin and the open communique 206406/1999 of Japanese Patent of international monopoly 501447/1997, the invention of having described the invention that relates to the crosslinked foaming product that uses ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer and having related to the crosslinked foaming product of the mixture that uses ethylene and ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer.Yet,, still can not obtain satisfied performance although these inventions have improved low-gravity and compression set resistant.
In the open communique 344924/2000 of the Japanese Patent of inventor's application, a kind of olefin elastomer crosslinked foaming product with high expansion ratio is disclosed, this product is not because froth breaking has surface roughening, have flexible touch, low compression deformation, good tear strength and thermotolerance, also disclose the elastic composition that is used for this crosslinked foaming product.Promptly, the olefin elastomer composition that comprises ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A), organo-peroxide (B), crosslinking coagent (C) and whipping agent (D) by thermal treatment obtains this crosslinked foaming product, and described ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A) density is the 0.88-0.92 gram per centimeter 3, melt flow rate (MFR) (190 ℃) restrains/10 minutes for 0.1-10.Ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A) comprises 5-95 weight part density and is not less than 0.88 gram per centimeter 3But less than 0.90 gram per centimeter 3, melt flow rate (MFR) (190 ℃) is the 0.90-0.93 gram per centimeter for/10 minutes ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer of 0.1-50 gram (A1 ') and 5-95 weight part density 3And melt flow rate (MFR) (190 ℃) is/10 minutes ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer of 0.1-50 gram (A2 '), described component (A1 ') and (A2 ') total amount are 100 weight parts, and the melt flow rate (MFR) (190 ℃) of the mixture of ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A1 ') and (A2 ') is 0.5-10 gram/10 minutes.In this invention, add and to have highdensity relatively ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A2 '), with the required hardness of guaranteeing to make of crosslinked foaming product, for example required hardness of footwear.Only add the low relatively ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer of a kind of density (A1 ') and can not guarantee the hardness of footwear needs, the crosslinked foaming product of making can not satisfy the needs of footwear.
Yet, ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A2 ') also have problems.That is, the surface hardness of the crosslinked foaming product of making for raising, multipolymer (A2 ') and ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A1 ') are compared has high melt point, so the kneading operation difficulty.Particularly, and multipolymer (A2 ') in kneading process, have problems, need high-energy or mixing not good, kneader device breaks down under extreme case.Comprising under the common composition situation of high melting point component, mediating temperature by raising and solved above-mentioned kneading problem.Yet for the foaming composition situation, kneading operation need carry out being lower than under the temperature of regulation (not being higher than 100 ℃ usually), mediates temperature can reduce foaming agent and/or linking agent because raise.
The inventor is devoted to research and solve above-mentioned kneading problem, and the result finds that by adopting density be the 0.900-0.930 gram per centimeter 3Melt flow rate (MFR) (ASTM D 1238,190 ℃, 2.16 kilogram load) restrain/10 minutes for 0.1-50, and be not higher than the ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A2) that 110 ℃ of positions have main fusing point peak, replace above-mentioned ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A2 '), can be so that the crosslinked foaming product that kneading and acquisition have the required enough hardness of footwear foaming product, when especially and (A2) being ethene/butene-1 copolymer when the above-mentioned ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer (A1) that comprises in the foamed products composition, can make sandwich obtain good plunger bond strength, this sandwich comprises that a foamed products layer and at least one are selected from the layer of following material: polyolefine, urethane, rubber, leather and imitation leather.According to this discovery, finish the present invention.
