Description

  The present invention relates to a carrier tape made of polycarbonate resin having excellent conductivity.

  Electronic parts such as semiconductors and microchips can cause troubles such as malfunctions when dust or dirt adheres to them. When transporting or storing the electronic parts, they are made of synthetic resin with antistatic properties and electrical conductivity. The carrier tape is widely used.

Among these, polycarbonate resin is excellent in heat resistance, impact resistance, and dimensional stability, and has attracted attention as a material suitable for use as a carrier tape. However, molded articles made of polycarbonate resin are susceptible to dust, and this improvement has been demanded.
Filling a polycarbonate resin with a conductive filler such as carbon black, carbon fiber (Patent Document 1), or carbon nanotube has been performed for the purpose of imparting antistatic properties and conductivity.

  If the polycarbonate resin is filled with a conductive filler such as carbon black at a high concentration, the processability of the polycarbonate resin may be remarkably lowered during melt-kneading or molding. Further, there is a problem that the surface appearance of the carrier tape molded product deteriorates due to the aggregation of carbon. In order to solve this problem, a technique of blending a thermoplastic polyalkylene terephthalate resin or the like (Patent Document 2) is used.

  Furthermore, the carrier tape needs to be provided with a guide hole for continuously mounting a semiconductor or electronic component on a tape having a certain width, and the guide hole is generally provided by punching. However, burrs may occur at the shearing edge of the punching process, and problems in the process may occur during continuous mounting due to the burrs. Therefore, an improvement for suppressing the generation of burrs has also been desired.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a conductive polycarbonate resin carrier tape excellent in conductivity and punching workability and excellent in productivity.

  That is, the present invention relates to carbon black (C) 10-40 wt. Per 100 parts by weight of component consisting of polycarbonate resin (A) 90-99.94 wt.% And polybutylene terephthalate resin (B) 0.06-10 wt. And a carrier tape formed by molding a conductive polycarbonate resin composition characterized by containing 0.5 to 10 parts by weight of polyethylene resin (D).

  The carrier tape of the present invention is excellent in conductivity and punching workability, and can prevent the adhesion of dust to products such as semiconductors and electronic components and suppress the occurrence of problems in the process when continuously mounted. Its practical utility value is extremely high.

  The polycarbonate resin (A) used in the present invention is obtained by a phosgene method in which various dihydroxydiaryl compounds and phosgene are reacted, or a transesterification method in which a dihydroxydiaryl compound and a carbonate such as diphenyl carbonate are reacted. A typical example of the polymer is a polycarbonate resin produced from 2,2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) propane (bisphenol A).

  Examples of the dihydroxydiaryl compound include bisphenol 4-, bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) methane, 1,1-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) ethane, 2,2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) butane, 2, 2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) octane, bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) phenylmethane, 2,2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl-3-methylphenyl) propane, 1,1-bis (4-hydroxy-3) -Tert-butylphenyl) propane, 2,2-bis (4-hydroxy-3-bromophenyl) propane, 2,2-bis (4-hydroxy-3,5-dibromophenyl) propane, 2,2-bis ( Bis (hydroxyaryl) alkanes such as 4-hydroxy-3,5-dichlorophenyl) propane, 1,1- (4-hydroxyphenyl) cyclopentane, bis (hydroxyaryl) cycloalkanes such as 1,1-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) cyclohexane, 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl ether, 4,4'-dihydroxy-3 Dihydroxy diaryl ethers such as 3,3'-dimethyldiphenyl ether, dihydroxy diaryl sulfides such as 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl sulfide, 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl sulfoxide, 4,4'-dihydroxy-3,3 ' Dihydroxy diaryl sulfoxides such as dimethyldiphenyl sulfoxide, dihydroxy diary such as 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl sulfone, 4,4'-dihydroxy-3,3'-dimethyldiphenyl sulfone Sulfone, and the like. These are used individually or in mixture of 2 or more types. In addition to these, piperazine, dipiperidyl hydroquinone, resorcin, 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl, and the like may be mixed and used.

  Furthermore, the above dihydroxyaryl compound and a trivalent or higher phenol compound as shown below may be used in combination. Trihydric or higher phenols include phloroglucin, 4,6-dimethyl-2,4,6-tri- (4-hydroxyphenyl) -heptene, 2,4,6-dimethyl-2,4,6-tri- (4 -Hydroxyphenyl) -heptane, 1,3,5-tri- (4-hydroxyphenyl) -benzol, 1,1,1-tri- (4-hydroxyphenyl) -ethane and 2,2-bis- [4 4- (4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl) -cyclohexyl] -propane and the like.

  The viscosity average molecular weight of the polycarbonate resin (A) is usually 10,000 to 100,000, preferably 15,000 to 35,000, and more preferably 17,000 to 28,000. In producing such a polycarbonate resin, a molecular weight regulator, a catalyst and the like can be used as necessary.

  The polybutylene terephthalate resin (B) used in the present invention has an intrinsic viscosity measured based on JIS K-7233 of 0.6 to 1.5, preferably 0.7 to 1.4. Can be suitably used.

  The compounding ratio of the polybutylene terephthalate resin (B) is 0.06 to 10% by weight based on the polycarbonate resin (A). If the blending ratio is less than 0.06% by weight, the electrical conductivity is lowered, and if it exceeds 10% by weight, the viscosity at the time of processing is excessively lowered, and therefore, it is not preferable because the molding process of the carrier tape is difficult. A more preferable blending ratio is in the range of 0.5 to 5.0% by weight.

  Examples of the carbon black (C) used in the present invention include furnace type, acetylene type, and ketjen type.

  The compounding quantity of carbon black (C) is 10-40 weight part per 100 weight part of components which consist of polycarbonate resin (A) and polybutylene terephthalate resin (B). A blending amount of less than 10 parts by weight is not preferable because sufficient conductivity cannot be obtained. On the other hand, if the blending amount exceeds 40 parts by weight, the processability of the carrier tape is inferior, which is not preferable. Preferably it is 13-30 weight part, More preferably, it is the range of 16-25 weight part.

  Examples of the polyethylene resin (D) used in the present invention include a high-density polyethylene resin. Further, those having a weight average molecular weight measured by GPC (gel permeation chromatography) in the range of 5,000 to 450,000, more preferably in the range of 15,000 to 300,000 can be suitably used. If the weight average molecular weight is less than 5000, sufficient punching processability may not be obtained. When the molecular weight exceeds 450,000, sufficient punching processability may not be obtained due to poor dispersion of the polyethylene resin.

  The blending amount of the polyethylene resin (D) is 0.5 to 10 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the component composed of the polycarbonate resin (A) and the polybutylene terephthalate resin (B). When the blending amount is less than 0.5 parts by weight, sufficient punching processability cannot be obtained, and when it exceeds 10 parts by weight, the viscosity at the time of processing is excessively lowered, and thus it is not preferable because the carrier tape is difficult to mold. A preferable blending amount is in the range of 2 to 7 parts by weight.
