Description

TITLE
A FLAME RETARD ANT
POLYAMIDE RESIN COMPOSITION
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention concerns a flame retardant polyamide resin composition that yields moldings which are characterized by excellent high-temperature stability and mechanical characteristics and which are impervious to corrosion even when used for a long time.
Polyamide resins are characterized by excellent mechanical characteristics, moldability, and chemical resistance and have therefore been used in automotive parts, electric/ electronic components, mechanical components, and many other applications. In particular, the need for flame retardancy is strong in the case of electric and electronic components, so the resins must satisf Class V-O requirements of the UL standard. This is the reason that flame retardant polyamide resins obtained, for example, by compounding brominated polystyrenes and antimony oxide into polyamide resins are now widely known.
The shortcomings of resin compositions obtained by the compounding of brominated polystyrenes and antimony oxide are that when the components are kneaded in high-temperature conditions or when the shear rate is high during the kneading of the components, the resin compositions undergo decomposition, their processing during manufacturing and molding is markedly impaired, and the mechanical characteristics of moldings are adversely affected. To overcome these shortcomings, stability at high temperatures is improved by compounding sodium antimonate instead of antimony oxide, but sodium antimonate must be compounded in a larger amount than antimony oxide in order to obtain a fire retardancy comparable to that of a polyamide resin composition containing compounded antimony oxide.
The mechanical characteristics of resin compositions, however, tend to be impaired when a large amount of sodium antimonate is compounded with the aforementioned polyamide resin composition. Another disadvantage is that an increase in process temperature additionally impairs the thermal stability of the resin composition when the brominated polystyrene contained in the resin composition obtained by the compounding of sodium antimonate and the brominated polystyrene has a high viscosity, that is, when, for example, the viscosity is at least 700 pascals at a temperature of 250 °C and a shear rate of 100 sec-1. In addition, sodium is eluted and corrosion develops when moldings are used for a long time.
The objective of the present invention is to offer a flame retardant polyamide resin composition capable of offering moldings which are highly stable at high temperatures, do not decompose during kneading and molding, possess excellent mechanical characteristics, and are unlikely to undergo corrosion even when used for a long time.
The present invention, which allows the stated objective to be attained, concerns a flame retardant polyamide resin composition which is characterized by essentially comprising 100 weight parts of a polyamide resin, 10 to 100 weight parts of a brominated polystyrene, and 1 to 20 weight parts of magnesium hydroxide or magnesium oxide.
The polyamide resin used in the present invention is one which is obtained by random ring-opening polymerization, aminocarboxylic acid polycondensation, diamine and dicarboxylic acid polycondensation, or diamine and aromatic carboxylic acid polycondensation. Specific examples include polyamides 6, 12, 11, 6-6, 6-10, and 6-12. An aromatic polyamide with a melting point of 280 to 340°C is preferred. It is particularly suitable to use an aromatic polyamide resin which comprises aromatic carboxylic acid component units that consist of terephthalic acid or a mixture of terephthalic acid and isophthalic acid containing no more than 40 mol% of isophthalic acid, and aliphatic diamine component units that consist of a mixture of hexamethylenediamine and 2- methylpentamethylenediamine containing 40 to 90 mol% of hexamethylenediamine. Stability at high temperatures is markedly improved by the use of an aromatic polyamide with a melting point of 280 to 340 °C. Such an aromatic poly amide resin can be manufactured by a known polycondensation technique. Polyamide 6-6 may be blended into the aromatic polyamide resin; terephthalic acid, a mixture of terephthalic acid and isophthalic acid, adipic acid, hexamethylenediamine, and 2-methylpentamethylenediamine may also be subjected to polycondensation together with the resin. Examples of the brominated polystyrenes of the present invention include poly(dibromostyrene), poly(tribromostyrene), and poly(pentabromostyrene). The content ranges from 10 to 100 weight parts with respect to the polyamide resin. When the content is lower than 10 weight parts, it is impossible to attain Class V-O fire retardancy, and when the content exceeds 100 weight parts, the mechanical strength becomes inadequate.
The content of the magnesium hydroxide or magnesium oxide used in the present invention should be 1 to 20 weight parts, and preferably 2 to 8 weight parts. A content that is lower than 1 weight part produces no fire retardancy effect. When the content exceeds 20 weight parts, the mechanical strength and tensile elongation decrease, and the polyamide resin decomposes when a large amount is compounded. Magnesium hydroxide and magnesium oxide may be used individually or as a combination.
A flame retardant polyamide resin composition with an even better processibility is obtained when antimony oxide is compounded in addition to magnesium hydroxide or magnesium oxide. The contents of components in this case should be 10 to 100 weight parts for the brominated polystyrene, 0.5 to 10 weight parts for magnesium hydroxide or magnesium oxide, and 0.5 to 10 weight parts for antimony oxide, per 100 weight parts of the polyamide resin. When the content of antimony oxide is lower than 0.5 weight parts, no flame retardancy effect is produced, and when the content exceeds 10 weight parts, the mechanical strength and tensile elongation decrease.
Glass fiber, carbonized fiber, potassium titanate, whiskers, talc, mica, and other inorganic fibers may also be compounded with the polyamide resin composition of the present invention.
Thermal stabilizers, plasticizers, antioxidants, nucleators, dyes, pigments, mold-release agents, and other additives can also be compounded in addition to the aforementioned components with the proposed polyamide resin composition as long as its characteristics are not adversely affected.
The undesirable toxicity induced by antimony can be reduced or completely eliminated by the substitution of some or all antimony oxide with the magnesium hydroxide or magnesium oxide compounded into the polyamide resin composition of the present invention. In addition, the resin composition does not decompose, nor does processibility deteriorate markedly during manufacturing and molding, even when the components are kneaded or molded in high-temperature conditions or when a high shear rate is developed during the kneading of the components. This makes it possible to offer a resin composition with satisfactory thermal stability, even when a highly viscous brominated polystyrene is used.
Another advantage is that because no sodium antimonate is used, there is no undesirable sodium-induced corrosion, and the mechanical characteristics are improved in comparison with the Class V-O characteristics obtained using sodium antimonate.
