That kind shown in these tables 1~4, during fabrication, the destruction of hollow packing is few during moulding stable and have the forming composition proportion below 1.6 in any embodiment, and almost do not have the heterogeneity on the position of forming composition.And, obtain having excellent thermotolerance, surface smoothing property, and have the forming composition of excellent size precision, mechanical characteristics, formability.Further, in the embodiment of the monomer that uses Phthalic acid, diallyl ester as linking agent or performed polymer (A) and, Phthalic acid, diallyl ester free-radical polymerised unsaturated monomer (B) in addition, can obtain having the forming composition of excellent coating.
Moreover, directly be that physical strength, formability, appearance have significantly improved under the situation of the inorganic filling material below the 15.0 μ m using averaged particles.In addition, at any one all under the situation in the scope 1.00~1.60 of compression molding thing proportion and injection moulding thing proportion, excellently special on physical strength.
On the other hand, the same with embodiment 1~29 to comparative example 1~18, it is mixing to use two bowl type kneaders to carry out each gradation composition according to the composition of the cooperation shown in table 5~6, obtains unsaturated polyester resin compositions.
To these compsns, the same with embodiment, carry out the evaluation of molding shrinkage, linear expansivity, Barcol hardness, proportion, thermotolerance, physical strength, formability, surface smoothing property, manufacturing possibility.The result of these evaluation of measuring has been shown in table 5~6.
As table 5~6 show; The interpolation mass ratio of the use level of inorganic filling material, the use level of hollow packing, inorganic filling material and hollow packing departs from above-mentioned specified range; Volume has been added the unsaturated polyester resin compositions of hollow packing; Thermotolerance, surface smoothing property, physical strength, formability, forming composition outward appearance significantly reduce, and maybe can not make.On the contrary, under insufficient situation, can not obtain the goods that meet the demands aspect the forming composition proportion.In addition; Be to depart from above-mentioned specified range equally, volume has been added the unsaturated polyester resin compositions of inorganic filling material, can not get the goods that meet the demands aspect the forming composition proportion; Under insufficient situation, physical strength, formability, forming composition outward appearance significantly reduce on the contrary.
In addition, the compressive strength of hollow packing does not satisfy the unsaturated polyester resin compositions of above-mentioned particular value, and hollow packing is destroyed during fabrication or during moulding, and forming composition proportion increases, and thermotolerance reduces.And the unsaturated polyester resin compositions that the use level of hollow packing is increased can not obtain the goods that meet the demands aspect thermotolerance, surface smoothing property, physical strength, the formability.
On the other hand, the averaged particles of inorganic filling material is the unsaturated polyester resin compositions of discontented above-mentioned particular value directly, and viscosity of material uprises and can not make.
Further, compression molding thing proportion, Barcol hardness depart from specialized range, it is apparent that poor heat resistance.
Therefore; Of the present invention from being the forming composition that the unsaturated polyester resin compositions of characteristic obtains to contain inorganic filling material and hollow packing; Different with in the past it is apparent that to have harmonious good and low proportion and forming composition rerum naturas such as excellent thermotolerance, surface smoothing property, mechanical characteristics, formability.In addition; Forming composition from the unsaturated polyester resin compositions of the monomer that used Phthalic acid, diallyl ester as linking agent or performed polymer and, free-radical polymerised unsaturated monomer beyond the Phthalic acid, diallyl ester monomer obtains it is apparent that further have excellent coating.
Hence one can see that, and the forming composition of the present invention that obtains from this unsaturated polyester resin compositions requires in the lamp reflector field of high heat resistance, surface smoothing property and mechanical characteristics at automobile-use headlamp etc. and is very useful, can in wide scope, using.
