Die Pfropfauflage B2 ist vorzugsweise ein Styrol/ Acrylnitril-Copolymerisat.The graft B2 is preferably a styrene / acrylonitrile copolymer.
Üblicherweise werden die Pfropfcopolymerisate B nach dem Verfahren der Emulsionspolymerisation hergestellt. Dabei polymerisiert man in der Regel bei einer Temperatur von 20 bis 100, bevorzugt 30 bis 80°C. Häufig werden übliche Emulgatoren mitverwendet, beispielsweise Alkalimetallsalze von Alkyl- oder Alkylarylsulfonsäuren, Alkylsulfate, Fettalkoholsulfonate, Salze höherer Fettsäuren mit 10 bis 30 Kohlenstoffatomen, Sulfosuccinate, Ethersulfonate oder Harzseifen. Vorzugsweise verwendet man die Alkalimetallsalze, insbesondere die Natrium- oder Kaliumsalze von Alkylsulfonaten oder Fettsäuren mit 10 bis 18 Kohlenstoffatomen. In der Regel werden die Emulgatoren in Mengen von 0,5 bis 5 Gew.-%, insbesondere von 0,5 bis 3 Gew.-%, bezogen auf die bei der Herstellung der Pfropfgrundlage eingesetzten Monomere, eingesetzt.The graft copolymers B are usually prepared by the emulsion polymerization process. Polymerization is generally carried out at a temperature of 20 to 100, preferably 30 to 80 ° C. Common emulsifiers are often used, for example alkali metal salts of alkyl or alkylarylsulfonic acids, alkyl sulfates, fatty alcohol sulfonates, salts of higher fatty acids with 10 to 30 carbon atoms, sulfosuccinates, ether sulfonates or resin soaps. The alkali metal salts, in particular the sodium or potassium salts of alkyl sulfonates or fatty acids having 10 to 18 carbon atoms, are preferably used. As a rule, the emulsifiers are used in amounts of 0.5 to 5% by weight, in particular 0.5 to 3% by weight, based on the monomers used in the preparation of the graft base.
Vorzugsweise verwendet man zur Herstellung der Dispersion soviel Wasser, daß die fertige Dispersion einen Feststoffgehalt von 20 bis 50 Gew.-% aufweist. Üblicherweise wird bei einem Wasser/Monomeren- Verhältnis von 2:1 bis 0,7:1 gearbeitet.Sufficient water is preferably used to prepare the dispersion so that the finished dispersion has a solids content of 20 to 50% by weight. Usually a water / monomer ratio of 2: 1 to 0.7: 1 is used.
Zum Starten der Polymerisationsreaktion sind alle Radikalbildner geeignet, die bei der gewählten Reaktionstemperatur zerfallen, also sowohl solche, die allein thermisch zerfallen, als auch solche, die dies in Gegenwart eines Redox-Systems tun. Als Polymerisationsinitiatoren kommen vorzugsweise Radikalbildner, beispielsweise Peroxide wie bevorzugt Peroxosulfate (etwa Natrium- oder Kaliumpersulfat) und Azoverbindungen wie Azodiisobutyronitril in Betracht. Es können jedoch auch Redox-Systeme, insbesondere solche auf Basis von Hydroperoxiden wie Cumolhydroperoxid, eingesetzt werden.All radical formers which decompose at the selected reaction temperature are suitable for starting the polymerization reaction, that is to say both those which decompose thermally on their own and those which do so in the presence of a redox system. Free radical formers, for example peroxides such as preferably peroxosulfates (for example sodium or potassium persulfate) and azo compounds such as azodiisobutyronitrile are preferably suitable as polymerization initiators. However, redox systems, in particular those based on hydroperoxides such as cumene hydroperoxide, can also be used.
In der Regel werden die Polymerisationsinitiatoren in einer Menge von 0,1 bis 1 Gew.-%, bezogen auf die Pfropfgrundlage-Monomeren, eingesetzt.As a rule, the polymerization initiators are used in an amount of 0.1 to 1% by weight, based on the graft base monomers.
Die Radikalbildner und auch die Emulgatoren werden dem Reaktionsansatz beispielsweise diskontinuierlich als Gesamtmenge zu Beginn der Reaktion, oder aufgeteilt in mehrere Portionen absatzweise zu Beginn und zu einem oder mehreren späteren Zeitpunkten zugefügt, oder kontinuierlich während eines bestimmten Zeitintervalls zugefügt. Die kontinuierliche Zugabe kann auch entlang eines Gradienten erfolgen, der z.B. auf- oder absteigend, linear oder exponentiell, oder auch stufenweise (Treppenfunktion) sein kann.The radical formers and also the emulsifiers are added to the reaction batch, for example discontinuously as a total amount at the beginning of the reaction, or divided into several portions, batchwise at the beginning and at one or more later times, or continuously during a certain time interval. The continuous addition can also take place along a gradient, e.g. can be ascending or descending, linear or exponential, or also stepwise (stair function).
Ferner kann man Molekulargewichtsregler wie Ethylhexylthioglycolat, n- oder t- Dodecylmercaptan oder andere Mercaptane, Terpinole und dimeres Methylstyrol oder andere zur Regelung des Molekulargewichts geeignete Verbindungen mitverwenden. Die Molekulargewichtsregler werden dem Reaktionsansatz diskontinuierlich oder kontinuierlich zugefügt, wie dies für die Radikalbildner und Emulgatoren zuvor beschrieben wurde.Molecular weight regulators such as ethylhexylthioglycolate, n- or t- Use dodecyl mercaptan or other mercaptans, terpinols and dimeric methylstyrene or other compounds suitable for regulating the molecular weight. The molecular weight regulators are added batchwise or continuously to the reaction mixture, as was described above for the radical formers and emulsifiers.
Zur Einhaltung eines konstant bleibenden pH-Wertes, der vorzugsweise bei 6 bis 9 liegt, kann man Puffersubstanzen wie Na2HPO4/NaH2PO4, Natrium- hydrogencarbonat oder Puffer auf Basis Citronensäure/Citrat, mitverwenden. Regler und Puffersubstanzen werden in den üblichen Mengen eingesetzt, so daß sich nähere Angaben hierzu erübrigen.To maintain a constant pH, which is preferably 6 to 9, buffer substances such as Na 2 HPO 4 / NaH 2 PO 4 , sodium hydrogen carbonate or buffer based on citric acid / citrate can also be used. Regulators and buffer substances are used in the usual quantities, so that further details are not necessary.
Man kann die Pfropfgrundlage in einer besonderen Ausfuhrungsform auch durch Polymerisation der Monomeren Bl in Gegenwart eines feinteiligen Latex herstellen (sog. "Saatlatex-Fahrweise" der Polymerisation). Dieser Latex wird vorgelegt und kann aus kautschukelastische Polymere bildenden Monomeren, oder auch aus anderen Monomeren, wie sie bereits genannt wurden, bestehen. Geeignete Saatlatices bestehen beispielsweise aus Polybutadien oder Polystyrol.In a special embodiment, the graft base can also be produced by polymerizing the monomers B1 in the presence of a finely divided latex (so-called "seed latex mode of operation" of the polymerization). This latex is introduced and can consist of monomers forming rubber-elastic polymers, or also of other monomers, as already mentioned. Suitable seed latices consist, for example, of polybutadiene or polystyrene.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform kann man die Pfropfgrundlage Bl im sogenannten Zulaufverfahren herstellen. Bei diesem Verfahren wird ein bestimmter Anteil der Monomeren vorgelegt und die Polymerisation gestartet, wonach man den Rest der Monomeren ("Zulaufanteil") Bl als Zulauf während der Polymerisation zufügt. Die Zulaufparameter (Gestalt des Gradienten, Menge, Dauer, etc.) hängen von den anderen Polymerisationsbedingungen ab. Sinngemäß gelten auch hier die zur Zugabeweise des Radikalstartes bzw. Emulgators gemachten Ausführungen.In another preferred embodiment, the graft base B1 can be produced in the so-called feed process. In this process, a certain proportion of the monomers is introduced and the polymerization is started, after which the remainder of the monomers (“feed fraction”) B1 are added as feed during the polymerization. The feed parameters (shape of the gradient, amount, duration, etc.) depend on the other polymerization conditions. The statements made regarding the addition of the radical start or emulsifier also apply here analogously.
Weiterhin eigenen sich auch Pfropfpolymerisate mit mehreren "weichen" und "harten" Schalen. Die genauen Polymerisationsbedingungen, insbesondere Art, Menge und Dosierung des Emulgators und der anderen Polymerisationshilfsstoffe werden bevorzugt so gewählt, daß der erhaltene Latex des Pfropfpolymerisates B eine mittlere Teilchengröße, definiert durch den d5o-Wert der Teilchengrößenverteilung, von 80 bis 800 um, bevorzugt 80 bis 600 nm und besonders bevorzugt 85 bis 400 nm aufweist.Graft polymers with several "soft" and "hard" shells are also suitable. The precise polymerization conditions, in particular the type, quantity and dosage of will emulsifier and of the other polymerization auxiliaries preferably selected so that the latex of the graft polymer B obtained has a mean particle size, defined by the d 5 o of the particle size, from 80 to 800 microns, preferably 80 to 600 nm and particularly preferably 85 to 400 nm.
Gemäß einer Ausfuhrungsform der Erfindung stimmt man die Reaktionsbedingungen so aufeinander ab, daß die Polymerisat-Teilchen eine bimodale Teilchengrößenverteilung aufweisen, also eine Größenverteilung mit zwei mehr oder weniger ausgeprägten Maxima.According to one embodiment of the invention, the reaction conditions are coordinated with one another in such a way that the polymer particles have a bimodal particle size distribution, that is to say a size distribution with two more or less pronounced maxima.
Bevorzugt wird die bimodale Teilchengrößenverteilung durch eine (teilweise) Agglomeration der Polymerteilchen erzielt. Dazu kann beispielsweise wie folgt vorgegangen werden: Man polymerisiert die Monomeren, welche den Kern aufbauen, bis zu einem Umsatz von üblicherweise mindestens 90, bevorzugt größer 95 %, bezogen auf die eingesetzten Monomeren. Dieser Umsatz ist in der Regel nach 4 bis 20 Stunden erreicht. Der erhaltene Kautschuklatex hat eine mittlere Teilchengröße d50 von maximal 200 nm und eine enge Teilchengrößenverteilung (nahezu monodisperses System).The bimodal particle size distribution is preferably achieved by a (partial) agglomeration of the polymer particles. This can be done, for example, as follows: The monomers which form the core are polymerized up to a conversion of usually at least 90%, preferably greater than 95%, based on the monomers used. This turnover is usually reached after 4 to 20 hours. The rubber latex obtained has an average particle size d 50 of at most 200 nm and a narrow particle size distribution (almost monodisperse system).
In der zweiten Stufe wird der Kautschuklatex agglomeriert. Dies geschieht in der Regel durch Zugabe einer Dispersion eines Acrylesterpoiymerisates. Vorzugsweise werden Dispersionen von Copolymerisaten von (Cι-C4-Alkyl)estern der Acrylsäure, vorzugsweise von Ethylacrylat, mit 0,1 bis 10 Gew.-% polare Polymerisate bildenden Monomeren, wie Acrylsäure, Methacrylsäure, Acrylamid oder Methacrylamid, N-Methylolmethacrylarnid oder N- Vinylpyrrolidon, eingesetzt. Besonders bevorzugt ist ein Copolymerisat aus 96 % Ethylacrylat und 4 % Methacrylamid. Die Agglomerierdispersion kann gegebenenfalls auch mehrere der genannten Acrylesterpolymerisate enthalten. Die Konzentration der Acrylesterpolymerisate in der zur Agglomeration verwendeten Dispersion soll im allgemeinen zwischen 3 und 40 Gew.-% liegen. Bei der Agglomeration werden 0,2 bis 20, vorzugsweise 1 bis 5 Gew.-Teile der Agglomerierdispersion auf 100 Teile des Kautschuklatex, jeweils berechnet auf Feststoffe, eingesetzt. Die Agglomeration wird durch Zugabe der Agglomerierdispersion zum Kautschuk durchgeführt. Die Geschwindigkeit der Zugabe ist normalerweise nicht kritisch, im allgemeinen dauert sie etwa 1 bis 30 Minuten bei einer Temperatur zwischen 20 und 90°C, vorzugsweise zwischen 30 und 75°C.In the second stage, the rubber latex is agglomerated. This is usually done by adding a dispersion of an acrylic ester polymer. Dispersions of copolymers of (C 1 -C 4 -alkyl) esters of acrylic acid, preferably of ethyl acrylate, with 0.1 to 10% by weight of monomers forming polar polymers, such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylamide or methacrylamide, N-methylol methacrylamide or N-vinyl pyrrolidone used. A copolymer of 96% ethyl acrylate and 4% methacrylamide is particularly preferred. The agglomerating dispersion can optionally also contain several of the acrylic ester polymers mentioned. The concentration of the acrylic ester polymers in the dispersion used for agglomeration should generally be between 3 and 40% by weight. In the agglomeration, 0.2 to 20, preferably 1 to 5 parts by weight of the agglomeration dispersion per 100 parts of the rubber latex, in each case calculated on solids, are used. The agglomeration is carried out by adding the agglomerating dispersion to the rubber. The rate of addition is normally not critical, generally it takes about 1 to 30 minutes at a temperature between 20 and 90 ° C, preferably between 30 and 75 ° C.
Außer mittels einer Acrylesterpolymerisat-Dispersion kann der Kautschuklatex auch durch andere Agglomeriermittel wie Essigsäureanhydrid agglomeriert werden. Auch eine Agglomeration durch Druck oder Einfrieren (Druck- bzw. Gefrieragglomeration) ist möglich. Die genannten Methoden sind dem Fachmann bekannt.In addition to an acrylic polymer dispersion, the rubber latex can also be agglomerated by other agglomerating agents such as acetic anhydride. Agglomeration by pressure or freezing (pressure or freeze agglomeration) is also possible. The methods mentioned are known to the person skilled in the art.
Unter den genannten Bedingungen wird nur ein Teil der Kautschukteilchen agglomeriert, so daß eine bimodale Verteilung entsteht. Dabei liegen nach der Agglomeration im allgemeinen mehr als 50, vorzugsweise zwischen 75 und 95 % der Teilchen (Zahlen-Verteilung) im nicht agglomerierten Zustand vor. Der erhaltene teilagglomerierte Kautschuklatex ist verhältnismäßig stabil, so daß er ohne weiteres gelagert und transportiert werden kann, ohne daß Koagulation eintritt.Under the conditions mentioned, only a part of the rubber particles is agglomerated, so that a bimodal distribution is produced. After agglomeration there are generally more than 50, preferably between 75 and 95% of the particles (number distribution) in the non-agglomerated state. The partially agglomerated rubber latex obtained is relatively stable, so that it can be easily stored and transported without coagulation occurring.
Um eine bimodale Teilchengrößenverteilung des Pfropfpolymerisates B zu erzielen, ist es auch möglich, zwei verschiedene Pfropfpolymerisate B' und B", die sich in ihrer mittleren Teilchengröße unterscheiden, getrennt voneinander in üblicher Weise herzustellen und die Pfropfpolymerisate B' und B" im gewünschten Mengenverhältnis zusammenzugeben.In order to achieve a bimodal particle size distribution of the graft polymer B, it is also possible to prepare two different graft polymers B 'and B ", which differ in their average particle size, separately from one another in the customary manner and to combine the graft polymers B' and B" in the desired quantitative ratio .
Die Herstellung der Pfropfauflage B2 kann unter den gleichen Bedingungen wie die Herstellung der Pfropfgrundlage Bl erfolgen, wobei man die Auflage B2 in einem oder mehreren Verfahrensschritten herstellen kann. Beispielsweise kann man bei einer zweistufigen Pfropfung zunächst Styrol bzw. α-Methylstyrol alleine und danach Styrol und Acrylnitril in zwei aufeinander folgenden Schritten polymerisieren. Diese zweistufige Pfropfung (zunächst Styrol, dann Styrol/ Acrylnitril) ist eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform. Weitere Einzelheiten zur Herstellung der Pfropfpolymerisate B sind in den DE-A 12 60 135 und 31 49 358 sowie EP-A-0 735 063 beschrieben.The graft B2 can be produced under the same conditions as the preparation of the graft base B1, the B2 being able to be produced in one or more process steps. For example, at In a two-stage grafting process, polymerize styrene or α-methylstyrene alone and then styrene and acrylonitrile in two successive steps. This two-stage grafting (first styrene, then styrene / acrylonitrile) is a preferred embodiment. Further details on the preparation of the graft polymers B are described in DE-A 12 60 135 and 31 49 358 and EP-A-0 735 063.
Es ist vorteilhaft, die Pfropfpolymerisation auf die Pfropfgrundlage Bl wiederum in wäßriger Emulsion durchzuführen. Sie kann im gleichen System wie die Polymerisation der Pfropfgrundlage vorgenommen werden, wobei weiter Emulgator und Initiator zugegeben werden kann. Diese müssen mit den zur Herstellung der Pfropfgrundlage Bl verwendeten Emulgatoren bzw. Initiatoren nicht identisch sein. So kann es z.B. zweckmäßig sein, als Initiator für die Herstellung der Pfropfgrundlage Bl ein Persulfat zu verwenden, zur Polymerisation der Pfropfhülle B2 jedoch ein Redoxinitiatorsystem einzusetzen. Im übrigen gilt für die Wahl von Emulgator, Initiator und Polymerisationshilfsstoffen das bei der Herstellung der Pfropfgrundlage Bl Gesagte. Das aufzupfropfende Monomerengemisch kann dem Reaktionsgemisch auf einmal, absatzweise in mehreren Stufen oder vorzugsweise kontinuierlich während der Polymerisation zugegeben werden.It is advantageous to carry out the graft polymerization on the graft base B1 again in an aqueous emulsion. It can be carried out in the same system as the polymerization of the graft base, and further emulsifier and initiator can be added. These need not be identical to the emulsifiers or initiators used to prepare the graft base B1. For example, it may be expedient to use a persulfate as the initiator for the preparation of the graft base B1, but to use a redox initiator system for the polymerization of the graft shell B2. For the rest, what has been said for the preparation of the graft base B1 applies to the choice of emulsifier, initiator and polymerization auxiliaries. The monomer mixture to be grafted on can be added to the reaction mixture all at once, batchwise in several stages or, preferably, continuously during the polymerization.
Soweit bei der Pfropfung der Pfropfgrundlage Bl nicht gepfropfte Polymere aus den Monomeren B2 entstehen, werden die Mengen, die in der Regel unter 10 Gew.-% von B2 liegen, der Masse der Komponente B zugeordnet.If, when the graft base B1 is grafted, non-grafted polymers are formed from the monomers B2, the amounts which are generally below 10% by weight of B2 are assigned to the mass of component B.

Teilchengrößen des Kautschuklatex:Particle sizes of the rubber latex:
Bei der Angabe der mittleren Teilchengröße d handelt es sich um das Gewichtsmittel der Teilchengröße, wie sie mittels einer analytischen Ultrazentrifuge entsprechend der Methode von W. Scholtan und H. Lange, Kolloid-Z. und Z.-Polymere 250 (1972) Seiten 782 bis 796, bestimmt wurden. Die Ultrazentrifugenmessung liefert die integrale Massenverteilung des Teilchendurchmessers einer Probe. Hieraus läßt sich entnehmen, wieviel Gewichtsprozent der Teilchen einen Durchmesser gleich oder kleiner einer bestimmten Größe haben.The average particle size d is the weight average of the particle size, as determined by means of an analytical ultracentrifuge according to the method of W. Scholtan and H. Lange, Kolloid-Z. and Z.-Polymer 250 (1972) pages 782 to 796. The ultracentrifuge measurement provides the integral mass distribution of the particle diameter of a sample. From this it can be seen what percentage by weight of the particles have a diameter equal to or smaller than a certain size.
Der dio-Wert gibt denjenigen Teilchendurchmesser an, bei dem 10 Gew.-% aller Teilchen einen kleineren und 90 Gew.-% einen größeren Durchmesser haben. Umgekehrt gilt für den d9o-Wert, daß 90 Gew.-% aller Teilchen einen kleineren und 10 Gew.-% einen größeren Durchmesser haben als derjenige Durchmesser, der dem d9o-Wert entspricht. Der gewichtsmittlere Teilchendurchmesser d5o bzw. vo lumenmittlere Teilchendurchmesser D50 gibt denjenigen Teilchendurchmesser an, bei dem 50 Gew.-% bzw. Vol.-% aller Teilchen einen größeren und 50 Gew.-% bzw. Völ.-% einen kleineren Teilchendurchmesser aufweisen, dio-, d50- und d9o- Wert charakterisieren die Breite Q der Teilchengrößenverteilung, wobei Q = (d9o- dι0)/dso. Je kleiner Q ist, desto enger ist die Verteilung.The dio value indicates the particle diameter in which 10% by weight of all particles have a smaller and 90% by weight a larger diameter. Conversely, for the d9o-value that 90 wt .-% of all particles have a smaller, and 10 wt .-% have a larger diameter than the diameter which corresponds to the d 9 o value. The weight average particle diameter d 5 o or Volume average particle diameter D 50 indicates the particle diameter at which 50% by weight or vol.% of all particles have a larger and 50% by weight or vol.% has a smaller particle diameter, dio-, d 50 - and d 9 o value characterize the width Q of the particle size distribution, where Q = (d9o-dι 0 ) / dso. The smaller Q is, the narrower the distribution.
