Description

  The present invention relates to a graft type dispersant, and more particularly, a graft type capable of producing a pigment dispersion excellent in non-aggregation property, fluidity and storage stability, which is suitable for fields such as paints and colored resin compositions. The present invention relates to a dispersant and a pigment composition using the same.

  Generally, when manufacturing ink etc., it is known that it is difficult to disperse | distribute a pigment stably at high concentration, and it is known that it will cause various problems with respect to a manufacturing process or the product itself. For example, dispersions containing pigments composed of fine particles often exhibit high viscosity, making it difficult to remove and transport the product from the disperser, and if the increase in viscosity is significant, the May become difficult to use. Furthermore, regarding the surface of the color-extended product, a state failure such as a decrease in gloss and a leveling failure occurs. In addition, when different types of pigments are used in combination, color unevenness due to aggregation and phenomena such as sedimentation may cause uneven color and a marked reduction in coloring power.

  Therefore, in general, a dispersant is used in order to maintain a good dispersion state. The dispersant has a structure of a site that adsorbs to the pigment and a site that has a high affinity for the solvent that is the dispersion medium, and the performance of the dispersant is determined by the balance of these two functional sites. Various types of dispersants are used according to the surface state of the pigment to be dispersed, but basic dispersants are generally used for pigments having an acid-biased surface. is there. In this case, the basic functional group becomes the adsorption site of the pigment. Dispersants having an amino group as a basic functional group are described in, for example, Patent Literature 1, Patent Literature 2, Patent Literature 3, Patent Literature 4, Patent Literature 5, Patent Literature 6, Patent Literature 7, and the like.

However, Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and Patent Document 3 have the dispersion ability, but the side chains are limited, and the usable solvents and binder resins are limited. Further, Patent Document 4, Patent Document 5, and Patent Document 6 have a certain degree of dispersion ability, but it was necessary to increase the amount of use in order to produce a stable dispersion with low viscosity. However, increasing the amount used is not preferable in view of development in inks, paints, etc., because the resistance of the coating film may be reduced. In Patent Document 7, although the dispersion ability is maintained, the concentration of the highly reactive primary amine is high, and there are limitations on the dispersant, resin, or additive used in combination.

  Next, the reaction between the vinyl polymer (c) having primary and tertiary amino groups and the vinyl polymer (d) having one free carboxyl group in one end region will be described.

  The graft type dispersant of the present invention is a vinyl polymer having one free carboxyl group in one end region with respect to 1 mol of the primary amino group in the vinyl polymer (c) having primary and tertiary amino groups (d). ) In which 0.4 to 1.0 mol of a carboxyl group is subjected to an addition reaction. When the proportion of the carboxyl group to be reacted is less than 0.4 mol, less than 40 mol% of the amino groups out of the primary amino groups of the vinyl polymer (c) are the carboxyl groups and acids in the vinyl polymer (d). An amide bond or a salt is formed. In this case, since the number of the polymer (d) which is a solvent affinity site is reduced, aggregation of the pigments occurs, resulting in insufficient viscosity reduction effect and a defect in the appearance of the coating film, which cannot be used as a dispersant.

  The reaction end point of the primary amino group and the carboxyl group was confirmed by measuring the amine value by potentiometric titration.

  When the vinyl polymer (c) having primary and tertiary amino groups is reacted with the vinyl polymer (d) having one free carboxyl group at one terminal region, different types of vinyl polymers (d), You may react low molecular weight carboxylic acid etc. simultaneously.

  The acid amide bond forming reaction and the salt forming reaction proceed simultaneously, but the acid amide bond forming reaction is preferably performed at 90 to 210 ° C, preferably 100 to 180 ° C.

If the amine value is less than 2 mgKOH / g, the functional group that adsorbs to the pigment may be insufficient, which may make it difficult to contribute to pigment dispersion. If the amine value exceeds 80 mgKOH / g, aggregation of the pigments occurs, resulting in a decrease in viscosity. Insufficient effects and defects in the appearance of the coating film may occur.

  In the present invention, as explained above, the primary amino group in the vinyl polymer (c) having primary and tertiary amino groups to be adsorbed to the pigment, and one terminal region serving as the solvent affinity part are provided. It is a graft type dispersant produced by addition reaction of a carboxyl group in a vinyl polymer (d) having a free carboxyl group.
