Embodiment

Describe reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles of the present invention below in detail and be molded foam the regenerated phenylethene that its frothing mold obtains.

The manufacture method of reclaimed expandable phenylethylene resin series of the present invention at first is described.

In manufacture method of the present invention, use small-particle by exhausted foamed styrene regenerated phenylethylene resin series as nuclear.

Be used as the regenerated phenylethene resin beads of nuclear, can use the exhausted foamed styrene is resin heating and/or the crushed material that subtracts the regenerating resin of appearance.The constrictor of phenylethylene resin series or melts can prepare by the following stated, promptly, to as required used phenylethylene resin series meal be broken into suitable size, contraction or fusion that the bubble destruction that utilize heat shrink then, is caused by compression is shunk, caused by frictional heat prepare.Used foamed styrene is a resin, not only comprises with expandable styrene being the moulded parts of resin die molding, also comprises the goods of foamable.

In addition, can also use pellet that this crushed material extrusion molding is made or crushed material that this pellet is further pulverized as nuclear.Can adjust proportion by extrusion molding, can also utilize the screen cloth that in forcing machine, is provided with to remove foreign matter.

In addition, can contain little powdered inorganics and/or organic system lubricant in the regenerated phenylethene resin beads, they can play the effect of bladder regulator.

As little powdered inorganics, preferably select talcum or lime carbonate for use.Here said talcum is meant that with silicon oxide and magnesium oxide be main component and the mixture that contains micro-aluminum oxide, ferric oxide etc.In addition, the median size of little powdered inorganics is advisable at 100 μ m or below the 100 μ m, preferably 30 μ m or below the 30 μ m.When the median size of little powdered inorganics surpassed 100 μ m, the effect that reduces the bubble size of resin particle tended to reduce.

With respect to the regenerated phenylethene resin beads, the use level of little powdered inorganics is advisable in the scope of 0.1～5% (weight), preferably the scope of 0.5～2% (weight).When the use level of micro mist shape inorganics is lower than 0.1% (weight), often can not fully obtain to reduce the effect of bubble size; Otherwise when surpassing 5% (weight), bubble size is very little, resin fusing during molding, and the outward appearance of moulded parts usually can worsen.

As the organic system lubricant, preferably use the metal-salt of senior lipid acid such as senior lipid acid bisamide such as methylene-bis stearylamide, ethylenebisstearamide, ethylenebisoleoamide, Zinic stearas, Magnesium Stearate, zinc oleate.

With respect to the regenerated phenylethene resin beads, the use level of organic system lubricant is advisable in the scope of 0.01～0.2% (weight), preferably the scope of 0.02～0.1% (weight).When the use level of organic system lubricant was lower than 0.01% (weight), the effect that reduces bubble size tended to reduce; Otherwise when surpassing 0.2% (weight), bubble size is very little, resin fusing during molding, and the outward appearance of moulded parts usually worsens.

Specifically, can little powdered inorganics and/or organic system lubricant is mixing when extrusion molding, in this occasion, in advance crushed material and bladder regulator are mixed, then extrusion molding.Crushed material can adopt known in the past method to carry out with mixing of bladder regulator, for example can use ribbon blender, V-type mixing machine, enjoyed the She Er mixing machine, mixing machine such as レデイゲ-mixing machine.

Preferably will carry out painted used polystyrene molded foam with dyestuff etc. in advance and remove, and then make constrictor or the melts that used foamed styrene is a resin.If sneak into painted moulded parts, reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles then therefrom and molded foam will be colored, and the use value of product suffers damage, thereby inadvisable.

Be purpose and the constrictor or the melts of phenylethylene resin series carried out heat fusing preferably to adjust proportion.In this operation, be that the proportion of resin is adjusted into more than 0.6 or 0.6 and is advisable with regenerated phenylethene, preferably be adjusted into more than 0.9 or 0.9.Proportion is lower than at 0.6 o'clock, because the dispersion instability of resin particle, thereby in polymerization process, producing excessive particle, yield rate is often lower.The heat fusing of styrene resin can use forcing machine, heating drum etc. in the past known method carry out.

This heat fusing should not have cooling curing under the less state of residual strain or strain in resulting resin, this point is very important.If residual in the resin particle have a strain, strain reduces in the operation of polymerization process and dipping whipping agent, shrinks on draw direction, and resulting reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles might not be spherical and become flats.Therefore, preferably there is not the stretching fusion with forcing machine.If under stretched state, carry out heat fusing, in the stretching resin that obtains behind the cooling curing strain will residually be arranged.

But, even in the heat fusing operation residual strain in the resin, as long as under the temperature more than the softening temperature of resin the health certain hour, strain is reduced.

Be used to pulverize the pulverizer of regenerating resin, the pulverizer that can use plastics to use as long as this pulverizer can be ground into polystyrene the scope of target value 0.3～3mm, has no particular limits.

The regenerated phenylethene of size is a resin beyond the target value that obtains through pulverizing, through supplying with the fusion operation of using forcing machine etc. after the screening once more.

By the nuclear that the regenerated phenylethene resin beads constitutes, its mean diameter is advisable at 0.2mm or more than the 0.2mm, 0.4mm or more than the 0.4mm preferably, preferably 0.5mm or more than the 0.5mm.In addition, this median size is advisable at 3mm or below the 3mm, 2mm or below the 2mm preferably, preferably 1.7mm or below the 1.7mm.

When the size of regenerated phenylethene resin beads surpassed 3mm, shape of products often was difficult to form spherical, when being lower than 0.2mm, carry out polymerization after particle diameter still too small, the demand when making the reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles is less.

In addition, in the regenerated phenylethene resin beads that forms nuclear, the following particle content of 300 μ m or 300 μ m should be lower than 1% (weight).The content of 300 μ m or the following particle of 300 μ m is when 1% (weight) is above, and the outward appearance when forming moulded parts might worsen.

The weight-average molecular weight of regenerated phenylethene resin beads that forms nuclear is more than 100,000 or 100,000, be advisable below 250,000 or 250,000.The weight-average molecular weight of regenerated phenylethene resin beads is lower than at 100,000 o'clock, often can not obtain enough intensity, surpasses at 250,000 o'clock, and particle often is difficult to form spherical, preferably more than 150,000, below 230,000.

The ratio that forms the regenerated phenylethene resin beads of nuclear is that 30% (weight) or 30% (weight) are above, 70% (weight) or below 70% (weight), preferably above, 50% (weight) of 30% (weight) or 30% (weight) or below 50% (weight).When the ratio of regenerated phenylethene resin beads was lower than 30% (weight), particle united two into one easily each other in polymerization process, when surpassing 70% (weight), can not obtain enough intensity sometimes.

In the manufacture method of reclaimed expandable phenylethylene resin series of the present invention, at first, as nuclear, it is suspended in the aqueous medium with the regenerated phenylethene resin beads.Dispersion in aqueous medium typically uses the device that has agitating vane to be carried out, for the dispersive condition without limits.In addition, preferably disperse with dispersion agent.

The dispersion agent that uses among the present invention, so long as the dispersion agent that uses during suspension polymerization gets final product, have no particular limits, for example can enumerate organic system dispersion agents such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, methylcellulose gum, insoluble inorganic salt such as trimagnesium phosphate, tricalcium phosphate.Can use tensio-active agent in addition, described tensio-active agent can use sodium oleate, Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, in suspension polymerization in normally used other anion surfactant, the nonionogenic tenside any.In these dispersion agents, consider from the stability of the oil droplet of styrenic monomers, preferentially select the organic system dispersion agent for use.

Subsequently, in above-mentioned suspension, add the styrenic monomers of having dissolved polymerization starter in advance, make it to soak into the regenerated phenylethene resin beads that forms nuclear, then add styrenic monomers and carry out polymerization.

The styrenic monomers of using among the present invention be in the styrene derivativess such as vinylbenzene and alpha-methyl styrene, Vinyl toluene more than a kind or a kind, perhaps more than 2 kinds or 2 kinds, perhaps other the combination etc. of polymerisable monomer of ethene nitrile, vinylchlorid etc. such as methacrylic ester, corresponding acrylate, vinyl cyanide, methacrylonitrile such as they and methyl methacrylate, Jia Jibingxisuanyizhi.In addition, can also use linking agents such as Vinylstyrene, diallyl phthalate.

Also polymerization starter can be dissolved in back interpolation in the solvent, make it to soak into the regenerated phenylethene resin beads that forms nuclear.Described solvent can use aliphatic hydrocarbons such as aromatic hydrocarbonss such as ethylbenzene, toluene, heptane, octane etc., is using the occasion of solvent, with respect to its consumption of styrenic monomers usually in 3% (weight) or below 3% (weight).

The polymerization starter that uses in the polyreaction is so long as getting final product of using in the suspension polymerization, have no particular limits, for example can use in the azo-compounds such as organo-peroxide, Diisopropyl azodicarboxylate such as benzoyl peroxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide-2-ethylhexyl carbonic ether, t-butyl per(oxy)benzoate more than a kind or a kind, perhaps more than 2 kinds or 2 kinds.

The consumption of polymerization starter is advisable in the scope of 0.1～0.5% (weight) with respect to monomer in general according to the kind of polymerization starter and different.In addition, polymerization starter can be dissolved in styrenic monomers or the solvent and add.Described solvent can use aliphatic hydrocarbons such as aromatic hydrocarbonss such as ethylbenzene, toluene, heptane, octane etc., is using the occasion of these solvents, with respect to its consumption of styrenic monomers usually in 3% (weight) or below 3% (weight).

Have as the method that makes the nuclear that constitutes by the regenerated phenylethene resin beads that is scattered in the aqueous medium soak into styrenic monomers, add the method for styrenic monomers separately, and in aqueous medium, add the method for adding behind the fine dispersive dispersion liquids of formation such as styrene monomer and dispersion agent.In addition, also these methods can be used in combination.

Styrenic monomers and dispersion agent etc. added to making its fine dispersive method in the aqueous medium, use the device that has agitating vane to carry out usually.Its condition but is preferably used homomixer as dispersive method more imperceptibly without limits.At this moment, the droplet diameter of styrenic monomers dispersive dispersion liquid is advisable with the degree that is distributed to the particle diameter that is less than or equal to nuclear.If under the big state of the particle diameter of droplet diameter ratio nuclear, add in the aqueous medium, then in the oil droplet of styrenic monomers dispersive dispersion liquid, will enter a plurality of resin particles, resin particle adheres to, plasticising or combine together, and generates excessive particle easily.

The interpolation of styrenic monomers can be carried out also can carrying out continuously in batches.The speed of adding is different according to capacity, shape and the polymerization temperature etc. of poly-unit, can suitably select.Polymerization temperature is advisable at 60～105 ℃.

In addition, in the present invention, also can be dissolved in styrenic monomers or the above-mentioned solvent and use with lipid acid bisamides such as lipid acid monoamide such as oleylamide, stearylamide, methylene-bis stearylamide, ethylenebisstearamides as bladder regulator.

Whipping agent is in polymerization process or polymerization is pressed in the container afterwards, is warming up to the above temperature of softening temperature of common regenerated phenylethene resin beads, and whipping agent is infiltrated up in the resin particle.Described whipping agent does not preferably dissolve resin particle or only makes the whipping agent of its slight swelling, specifically can use aliphatic hydrocarbons such as propane, normal butane, Trimethylmethane, Skellysolve A, iso-pentane, normal hexane, ester ring type hydrocarbon such as hexanaphthene, pentamethylene.With respect to the regenerated phenylethene resin beads, the consumption of these whipping agents is 3～15% (weight) normally.

When the dipping whipping agent, can also flood fire retardant in order to improve flame retardant resistance.

The bromide that described fire retardant preferably mixes with polystyrene.Preferentially select tetrabromoethane, hexabromocyclododecane, 2 for use as bromide, two (4-allyloxy-3, the 5-dibromo) propane of 2-, hexabromobenzene etc.In addition, can also and use with superoxide such as dicumyl peroxide.With respect to the regenerated phenylethene resin beads, their consumption is advisable in 0.5～5% (weight), preferably 1.5～3.5% (weight).When being lower than 0.5% (weight), flame retardant resistance is low, and when surpassing 5% (weight), mouldability is deterioration often.

Preferably being scattered in it in aqueous solution that contains tensio-active agent equably with whipping appts after, adds again fire retardant.Directly add if fire retardant is not made the aqueous solution, the dispersion of fire retardant is insufficient, and the absorption in the regenerated phenylethene resin beads can reduce.Particularly for the fire retardant of powder, this tendency is more remarkable.

The reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles after finishing at dipping whipping agent (and fire retardant), discharging and dehydrate in by paradigmatic system, can be covered surface-coated dose as required.Such coating agent can use employed coating agent in the known in the past expandable styrene resin beads, for example Zinic stearas, glycerol stearate, stearic acid monoglyceryl ester, castor-oil plant winterized stearin, tallow winterized stearin, type siloxane, antistatic agent etc.

Total molecular weight can be by adjusting polymerization starter concentration or and with chain-transfer agent or use these two kinds of methods to adjust simultaneously.Described chain-transfer agent can use known in the past chain-transfer agents such as n-octyl mercaptan, lauryl mercaptan, α-Jia Jibenyixierjuwu.Usually, when the concentration of polymerization starter reduced, total molecular weight increased.

Therefore, by adjusting the concentration of polymerization starter, the weight-average molecular weight that can obtain the reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles is a reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles more than 150% or 150%, below 300% or 300% with respect to the weight-average molecular weight of the regenerated phenylethene resin beads that becomes nuclear.

In addition, by reducing oxygen concn, can improve the weight-average molecular weight of the near surface part of reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles.

Specifically,, remain on 7% (volume) or below 7% (volume), can adjust the polymerization molecular-weight average 20% or 20% when following at the containing ratio of styrenic monomers by making the oxygen concn in the reactive tank.Preferably, one side remains on 5% (volume) with oxygen concn or below 5% (volume), preferably remains on 1% (volume) or below 1% (volume), simultaneously add styrenic monomers.Described " containing ratio of styrenic monomers is below 20% or 20% " be meant, the containing ratio when being located at the whole polymerization of the styrenic monomers of adding in the reactive system is 0% o'clock, when polymerization containing ratio latter half reaches below 20% or 20%.

The containing ratio of styrenic monomers is 20% or 20% when following, by the oxygen concn in the reactive tank being remained on 7% (volume) or below 7% (volume), the lower molecular weightization that can suppress the resin particle surface portion is adjusted into the weight-average molecular weight of surface portion than more than centre portions high 50,000 or 50,000.When oxygen concn surpassed 7% (volume), the polymer of surface portion quantized insufficient, and the outward appearance of the moulded parts of resulting reclaimed expandable phenylethylene resin series and intensity might reduce.

Preferably, begin to reach at 3% o'clock, by the oxygen concn in the reactive tank being remained on 1% (volume) or below 1% (volume), can further improving the weight-average molecular weight of surface portion to the containing ratio of styrenic monomers from polymerization.

Oxygen concn in the reactive tank can be by adjusting with the air in the inert gas replacement(metathesis)reaction grooves such as nitrogen.

Adopt this manufacture method, can obtain from the surface of particle to the center of particle be divided into 5 timesharing such as grade by the weight-average molecular weight of the surface portion on surface to 1/5 than the high reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles of weight-average molecular weight that reaches the centre portions that 1/5 place forms by mind-set surface in above-mentioned.From the molecular weight gradient of center to face, not to raise lentamente, but sharply raise near surface with certain ratio.

With reference to the accompanying drawings surface portion and centre portions are illustrated.As shown in Figure 1, the surface from resin particle 10 is divided into 5 five equilibriums to the center.From the part 1 that is positioned at the formation of outermost surface to 1/5 is surface portion.The weight-average molecular weight of surface portion is the weight-average molecular weight of this part 1.From the part 5 that is positioned at the most inboard center to 1/5 formation are centre portionss.The weight-average molecular weight of centre portions is the weight-average molecular weight that this part 5 is divided into the center of 5 timesharing such as grade.

In addition, begin to polymerization latter stage (for example the containing ratio of styrenic monomers reaches at 3% o'clock), if the oxygen concn in the reactive tank is remained on 1% (volume) or below 1% (volume), can further improve the molecular weight of surface portion from polymerization.Last in polyreaction is extremely near the part on surface, though the molecular weight of rising has the trend of reduction, if the oxygen concn in the reactive tank is remained on 1% (volume) or below 1% (volume), can suppress this reduction.

In general, when molecular weight belonged to lower molecular weight, foaminess and fusion character were often better, and when belonging to high molecular, often the strength ratio of outward appearance and moulded parts is better.That is, foaminess and fusion character and outward appearance and moulded parts intensity are reciprocal characteristics.In the reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles that obtains reducing oxygen concn, can make the molecular weight of centre portions keep lower molecular weight, make the molecular weight of surface portion keep high molecular simultaneously.Such particle can satisfy requirements such as foaminess, outward appearance and moulded parts intensity all sidedly.For example, in the foaminess that keeps to a certain degree, can obtain good surface appearance and higher moulded parts intensity.

In addition, the spectrogram that obtains of the employing gel permeation chromatography of the surface portion of this particle preferably has bimodal or acromion.Have bimodal or acromion means that molecular weight changes sharp.Acromion is formed by flex point.Have bimodal or acromion means that the distribution of molecular weight is not normal distribution, but lower molecular weight and high molecular omnipresence (uneven distribution).In the present invention, the spectrogram that obtains by gel permeation chromatography is to use two Hitachis to change into that post GL-R400M that industry (strain) society makes measures.Usually produce flex point at the two ends, bottom of spectrogram, but the acromion described in the present invention does not comprise these flex points (with reference to Fig. 3) yet.

As previously mentioned, in general, when molecular weight was lower molecular weight, foaminess and fusion character were often better, and when molecular weight was high molecular, outward appearance and moulded work intensity were often better.Molecular weight at surface portion is the high-molecular weight occasion, and outward appearance and moulded work intensity are good, but fusion character is tending towards reducing.By in surface portion, making lower molecular weight and high molecular omnipresence, can when keeping good appearance and high moulded work intensity, improve fusion character.

Particularly preferably be, the weight-average molecular weight of the surface portion of reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles is than more than centre portions high 50,000 or 50,000, below 100,000 or 100,000.The difference of above-mentioned weight-average molecular weight was less than 50,000 o'clock, and outward appearance and intensity can not fully improve sometimes.

Generative foaming moulded parts of the present invention is by making reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles frothing mold.

In general, utilize steam-heated cal(l)andria the pre-frothing of reclaimed expandable styrene resin particles to be reached the bulk density of regulation, to be filled into through the foamed beads of curing step in the molding die, with foamable moldings such as steams, make molded foam once more.

Moulded parts of the present invention has good surface appearance, fusion and/or intensity, can be used for food product containers, wrapping material and buffering material etc.

The following describes embodiments of the invention.
