Definitions

  • the present invention relates to anti-static styrene polymer compositions and more specifically a composition comprising a styrene polymer (A), a copolymer (B) containing polyamide blocks and polyether blocks essentially comprising ethylene oxide units - (C2H4— O) - and a compatibilizer (C).
  • styrene polymer (A) antistatic properties This is to give the styrene polymer (A) antistatic properties.
  • the formation and retention of static electricity charges on the surface of most plastics is known.
  • the presence of static electricity on thermoplastic films leads for example these films to stick to each other making their separation difficult.
  • the presence of static electricity on packaging films can cause the accumulation of dust on the objects to be packaged and thus hinder their use.
  • Styrene resins such as for example polystyrene or ABS are used to make cases for computers, telephones, televisions, photocopiers as well as many objects. Static electricity causes the accumulation of dust but above all can also damage the microprocessors or the components of the electronic circuits contained in these objects.
  • antistatic agents such as ionic surfactants of the ethoxylated amino or sulfonate type which are added to polymers.
  • antistatic properties of the polymers depend on the ambient humidity and they are not permanent since these agents migrate to the surface of the polymers and disappear. It was then proposed as antistatic agents copolymers with polyamide blocks and hydrophilic polyether blocks, these agents have the advantage of not migrating and therefore of giving permanent antistatic properties and more independent of ambient humidity.

  • - Orevac® Copolymer of ethylene and methyl acrylate grafted with maleic anhydride. This product has a melting point of 65 ° C and an MFI of 3.5 under 190 ° C / 2.16 kg conditions. In the following examples, the following characterization techniques were used:
  • compositions obtained are injected on a press at temperatures of 200 to 220 ° C in the form of dumbbells or plates. Dumbbells allow tensile tests to be carried out according to ISO R527.
  • Plates with dimensions of 100mmx100mmx2mm are injection molded and allow resistivity measurements to be made according to the IEC-93 standard.
  • the surface resistivity is measured in ohm / D and the half-discharge time (CDT) in seconds; the properties obtained in tension are also given. All tests are carried out at 23 ° C.
  • the plates are conditioned at 50% humidity for 15 days before being tested for the measurement of surface resistivity.
  • a Buss co-mixer of length equal to eleven times the diameter (Buss 11 D) is used with a total flow rate of 25 kg / h. This flow represents the sum of the flows ingredients used.
  • the set temperatures of the sleeves are those usually used for a polystyrene, that is to say 200 to 220 ° C.
  • the rods from the machine are cooled in a water tank and are transformed into granules. These granules are injected in the form of plates or dumbbells at a temperature between 220 and 240 ° C. The results are shown in Table 1 below.
