Description

本発明は、潤滑剤組成物に関する。さらに詳しくは、例えば、ゴム製部品の組み付けに使用される潤滑剤組成物に関する。   The present invention relates to a lubricant composition. More specifically, for example, the present invention relates to a lubricant composition used for assembling rubber parts.

一般に、オイルシール、Oリング、パッキン等のシール用部材をシャフト等に組み付ける際には、挿入時のカジリや傷付きによるシール性悪化防止のため、オイル、グリース、ワックス等の潤滑剤が塗布されている。しかし、このような潤滑剤を用いた場合、塗布作業の際に周辺に飛散してしまい現場環境が悪化するといった問題がある。このような背景から、近年では作業環境のクリーン化を目的としてオイル・グリースレス化のニーズが高まりつつある。また、潤滑剤を用いた場合、組み付け時の挿入抵抗を低減させるだけでなく、組み付け後のシール性を確保するべくシール用部材が滑らないようにすることが要求されている。   In general, when assembling sealing members such as oil seals, O-rings, and packings on shafts, lubricants such as oil, grease, and wax are applied to prevent deterioration of sealing performance due to galling or scratching during insertion. ing. However, when such a lubricant is used, there is a problem that the site environment is deteriorated due to scattering to the periphery during the application work. Against this background, in recent years, there has been a growing need for an oil / grease-free system for the purpose of cleaning the work environment. In addition, when a lubricant is used, it is required not only to reduce the insertion resistance at the time of assembly, but also to prevent the sealing member from slipping in order to ensure the sealing performance after assembly.

潤滑剤として、例えば、末端水酸基を含有するポリシロキサンとシリルイソシアネートとの反応生成物、イソシアネート基と反応性を有する官能基を含有するオリゴマーとシリルイソシアネートとの反応生成物、シリルイソシアネートオリゴマー、有機溶媒可溶性ゴムよりなる表面処理剤(特許文献1)、特定の非相溶性シリコーンオイルを配合したオイルブリード性シリコーンゴム(特許文献2,3,4)がある。   As a lubricant, for example, a reaction product of polysiloxane containing a terminal hydroxyl group and silyl isocyanate, a reaction product of an oligomer containing a functional group having reactivity with an isocyanate group and silyl isocyanate, a silyl isocyanate oligomer, an organic solvent There are surface treating agents made of soluble rubber (Patent Document 1) and oil-bleedable silicone rubbers (Patent Documents 2, 3, and 4) blended with specific incompatible silicone oils.

特開2000−63744号公報JP 2000-63744 A 特開平06−16938号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 06-16938 特開平06−93186号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 06-93186 特開2000−034411号公報JP 2000-034411 A

特許文献1では、表面処理剤を用いることにより、作業環境の改善やシール用部材の組み付け性を向上させているが、表面処理剤の主成分がトルエン、酢酸エチル、メチルエチルケトン等の有機溶剤であり、環境負荷が大きいため取り扱いが容易でない。また、表面処理被膜を形成させるために熱処理が必要となり、設備投資やランニングコストがかかる点で、経済性に劣る。   In Patent Document 1, the surface treatment agent is used to improve the work environment and improve the assembly of the sealing member. However, the main component of the surface treatment agent is an organic solvent such as toluene, ethyl acetate, methyl ethyl ketone, or the like. It is not easy to handle due to the large environmental load. In addition, heat treatment is required to form the surface treatment film, which is inferior in economic efficiency in terms of equipment investment and running cost.

また、特許文献2、3、4では、ゴム表層にオイル成分をブリードさせて、組み付けの際の挿入抵抗を低減させているが、短時間で十分なブリードオイルをゴム表層にブリードさせるためには、ブリードオイルの配合量をある程度多くしなければならない。結果として、ゴム自体の機械的強度が低下してしまう。   Further, in Patent Documents 2, 3, and 4, the oil component is bleed on the rubber surface layer to reduce the insertion resistance during assembly, but in order to bleed sufficient bleed oil on the rubber surface layer in a short time, The amount of bleed oil must be increased to some extent. As a result, the mechanical strength of the rubber itself is reduced.

したがって、本発明は、表面処理を必要とせず、簡単に塗布することができ、従来使用されていた組み付け用オイル・グリースと同程度の挿入抵抗低減を実現しつつ、組み付け後のシール性を確保し得る、環境負荷の少ない水系の潤滑剤組成物を提供することを目的とする。   Therefore, the present invention does not require surface treatment, can be applied easily, and achieves the same level of insertion resistance reduction as that of conventional oil and grease for assembly, while ensuring the sealing performance after assembly. An object of the present invention is to provide a water-based lubricant composition having a low environmental load.

以下、本発明を実施形態に即して詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail according to embodiments.

(潤滑剤組成物)
本発明の潤滑剤組成物は、水性媒体と高分子増粘剤とを含む。
(Lubricant composition)
The lubricant composition of the present invention includes an aqueous medium and a polymer thickener.

本発明で使用される高分子増粘剤は、水と混合することにより増粘性を発揮する高分子化合物であれば特に限定されないが、ポリアクリル酸系化合物、多糖類誘導体等が好ましい。これらの高分子増粘剤は、単独で用いてもよく、複数を組み合わせて用いてもよい。高分子増粘剤の重量平均分子量は、50万〜200万であるのが好ましい。重量平均分子量が50万未満の場合には、増粘効果が得られにくい。また、重量平均分子量が200万を超えると、溶解性が低下してしまう。   The polymer thickener used in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it is a polymer compound that exhibits thickening by mixing with water, but polyacrylic acid compounds, polysaccharide derivatives and the like are preferable. These polymer thickeners may be used alone or in combination. The weight average molecular weight of the polymer thickener is preferably 500,000 to 2,000,000. When the weight average molecular weight is less than 500,000, it is difficult to obtain a thickening effect. Moreover, when a weight average molecular weight exceeds 2 million, solubility will fall.

ポリアクリル酸系化合物とは、主として含まれているモノマー構成単位がアクリル酸であるポリマーであって、その塩も含まれる。すなわち、ポリアクリル酸系化合物は、アクリル酸のみを重合したホモポリマーでもよく、アクリル酸と他のモノマーとを重合したコポリマーでもよい。他のモノマーとしては、例えば、アクリル酸エステル、メタクリル酸、メタクリル酸エステルやマレイン酸等が挙げられる。   The polyacrylic acid-based compound is a polymer in which the monomer constituent unit mainly contained is acrylic acid, and a salt thereof is also included. That is, the polyacrylic acid compound may be a homopolymer obtained by polymerizing only acrylic acid or a copolymer obtained by polymerizing acrylic acid and another monomer. Examples of other monomers include acrylic acid ester, methacrylic acid, methacrylic acid ester and maleic acid.

また、ポリアクリル酸系化合物は、一部が架橋した構造を有していてもよい。架橋剤、例えば、少なくとも2つのエチレン性不飽和基を有するモノマー、又はエポキシ基とエチレン性不飽和基を少なくとも1つずつ有するモノマーを、アクリル酸等のモノマーと重合することにより架橋した構造のポリマーを得ることができる。架橋型ポリアクリル酸系化合物は、三次元網目構造を形成することで、水を取り込んだ際の増粘効果が高い。   The polyacrylic acid compound may have a partially crosslinked structure. A polymer having a structure in which a crosslinking agent, for example, a monomer having at least two ethylenically unsaturated groups or a monomer having at least one epoxy group and one ethylenically unsaturated group is crosslinked with a monomer such as acrylic acid. Can be obtained. The cross-linked polyacrylic acid-based compound has a high thickening effect when water is taken in by forming a three-dimensional network structure.

また、ポリアクリル酸系化合物が塩である場合、ポリマーに含まれるカルボキシル基の一部のみが中和したものでも、全部が中和したものでもよい。塩の種類は特に限定されないが、例えば、ナトリウム塩、カリウム塩、アンモニウム塩、モノエタノールアミン塩、ジエタノールアミン塩、トリエタノールアミン塩、ジイソプロパノールアミン塩、ジ(2−エチルヘキシル)アミン塩、アミノメチルプロパノール塩、トリエチルアミン塩、テトラヒドロキシプロピルエチレンジアミン塩等が挙げられる。市場入手性、及び水性媒体中での溶解安定性の点で、トリエタノールアミン塩がより好ましい。これらの塩は、ポリマーに中和剤を作用させることにより形成できる。中和剤の添加量は、潤滑剤組成物のpHが4〜11になるように調整するのが好ましい。   When the polyacrylic acid compound is a salt, only a part of the carboxyl groups contained in the polymer may be neutralized or all may be neutralized. The type of the salt is not particularly limited. For example, sodium salt, potassium salt, ammonium salt, monoethanolamine salt, diethanolamine salt, triethanolamine salt, diisopropanolamine salt, di (2-ethylhexyl) amine salt, aminomethylpropanol Salt, triethylamine salt, tetrahydroxypropylethylenediamine salt and the like. A triethanolamine salt is more preferable in terms of market availability and dissolution stability in an aqueous medium. These salts can be formed by allowing a neutralizing agent to act on the polymer. The addition amount of the neutralizing agent is preferably adjusted so that the pH of the lubricant composition is 4-11.

ポリアクリル酸系化合物としては、より具体的に、アクリル酸コポリマー又はその塩、カルボキシビニルポリマー又はその塩、アルキル変性カルボキシビニルポリマー又はその塩が挙げられる。低濃度で優れた増粘効果を示す点で、カルボキシビニルポリマーの塩がより好ましい。   More specifically, examples of the polyacrylic acid-based compound include an acrylic acid copolymer or a salt thereof, a carboxyvinyl polymer or a salt thereof, and an alkyl-modified carboxyvinyl polymer or a salt thereof. A carboxyvinyl polymer salt is more preferable in that it exhibits an excellent thickening effect at a low concentration.

多糖類誘導体とは、多糖類のヒドロキシ基の一部又は全てに置換基を導入したものである。多糖類誘導体としては、例えば、セルロース誘導体、グアーガム誘導体、スターチ誘導体が挙げられるが、特にセルロース誘導体が好ましい。また、セルロース誘導体としては、例えば、メチルセルロース、エチルセルロース、ヒドロキシエチルセルロース、ヒドロキシプロピルセルロース、ヒドロキシエチルメチルセルロース、ヒドロキシプロピルメチルセルロース、カルボキシメチルセルロース、カルボキシエチルセルロースが挙げられる。その中でも、水に溶解しやすく、均一な水性溶液を迅速に得やすい点で、ヒドロキシエチルセルロースがより好ましい。なお、ヒドロキシセルロースは、公知の方法で製造することができるが、例えば、セルロースを塩基で処理した後に酸化エチレンと反応させて製造することができる。   The polysaccharide derivative is a derivative in which a substituent is introduced into part or all of the hydroxy group of the polysaccharide. Examples of polysaccharide derivatives include cellulose derivatives, guar gum derivatives, and starch derivatives, and cellulose derivatives are particularly preferable. Examples of the cellulose derivative include methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, and carboxyethyl cellulose. Among them, hydroxyethyl cellulose is more preferable because it is easily dissolved in water and a uniform aqueous solution can be easily obtained. In addition, although hydroxycellulose can be manufactured by a well-known method, for example, after processing cellulose with a base, it can be made to react with ethylene oxide.

本発明の潤滑剤組成物における高分子増粘剤の含有量は、特に限定されないが、高分子増粘剤がポリアクリル酸系化合物であるときは、水性媒体100重量部に対して0.02〜0.3重量部であるのが好ましい。また、高分子増粘剤が多糖類誘導体であるときは、水性媒体100重量部に対して0.1〜1.5重量部であるのが好ましい。高分子増粘剤の含有量は、潤滑剤組成物の見掛け粘度(25℃、シェアレート1s−1)が800〜8000Pa・sになるように適宜調整される。潤滑剤組成物の見掛け粘度(25℃、シェアレート1s−1)は、より好ましくは、1500〜6500Pa・sである。見掛け粘度が800〜8000Pa・sであると、組み付けの際に挿入部に水又は溶剤膜が形成され、挿入抵抗を低減させることができる。さらに、塗布作業性も良好となる。一方、見掛け粘度が800Pa・sより低いと、組み付けの際に摩擦抵抗が大きくなってしまい、シール用部材のカジリや傷付きが発生してしまう。また、見掛け粘度が8000Pa・sより高いと、塗布作業性に悪影響を及ぼし、かつ、組み付け後に高分子増粘剤が異物として残り、シール用部材のシール機能を低下させてしまう。 The content of the polymer thickener in the lubricant composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, but when the polymer thickener is a polyacrylic acid compound, it is 0.02 with respect to 100 parts by weight of the aqueous medium. It is preferable that it is -0.3 weight part. When the polymer thickener is a polysaccharide derivative, it is preferably 0.1 to 1.5 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the aqueous medium. The content of the polymer thickener is appropriately adjusted so that the apparent viscosity (25 ° C., shear rate 1 s −1 ) of the lubricant composition is 800 to 8000 Pa · s. The apparent viscosity (25 ° C., shear rate 1 s −1 ) of the lubricant composition is more preferably 1500 to 6500 Pa · s. When the apparent viscosity is 800 to 8000 Pa · s, a water or solvent film is formed at the insertion portion during assembly, and insertion resistance can be reduced. Furthermore, the coating workability is also improved. On the other hand, if the apparent viscosity is lower than 800 Pa · s, the frictional resistance becomes large at the time of assembly, and the seal member is galling or scratched. On the other hand, when the apparent viscosity is higher than 8000 Pa · s, the coating workability is adversely affected, and the polymer thickener remains as a foreign substance after assembly, and the sealing function of the sealing member is deteriorated.

本発明で使用される水性媒体は、水を必須成分として含有していればよく、他の有機溶剤を含有していてもよい。水性媒体は、好ましくは、水、又は、水とアルコール系溶剤の混合溶媒である。特に、高分子増粘剤としてポリアクリル酸系化合物を用いる場合には、組み付け後の乾燥性の向上を目的として揮発性の高いアルコール系溶剤を含有させるのがよい。揮発性の高いアルコール系溶剤としては、メタノール、エタノール、イソプロピルアルコールが挙げられる。さらに、環境や人体への影響を考慮すると、イソプロピルアルコールが好ましい。有機溶剤の含有量は、組み付け後の乾燥効果に影響を与えない範囲で適宜調整することができる。これらの有機溶媒は、単独で用いてもよいし、2種類以上を組み合わせて用いてもよい。   The aqueous medium used by this invention should just contain water as an essential component, and may contain the other organic solvent. The aqueous medium is preferably water or a mixed solvent of water and an alcohol solvent. In particular, when a polyacrylic acid compound is used as the polymer thickener, it is preferable to contain a highly volatile alcohol solvent for the purpose of improving the drying property after assembly. Examples of the highly volatile alcohol solvent include methanol, ethanol, and isopropyl alcohol. Furthermore, isopropyl alcohol is preferable in consideration of the influence on the environment and the human body. The content of the organic solvent can be appropriately adjusted within a range that does not affect the drying effect after assembly. These organic solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

本発明の潤滑剤組成物は、シール用部材に塗布されることにより、シール用部材を組み付ける際の挿入抵抗が低減する。さらに、挿入後に、滑剤組成物に含まれる水性媒体が揮発してシール用部材の摩擦係数が高くなるため、組み付け後のシール性を維持することができる。   When the lubricant composition of the present invention is applied to a sealing member, insertion resistance when the sealing member is assembled is reduced. Furthermore, since the aqueous medium contained in the lubricant composition is volatilized after insertion and the coefficient of friction of the sealing member is increased, the sealing performance after assembly can be maintained.

(潤滑剤組成物の製造方法)
本発明の潤滑剤組成物の製造方法は、特に限定されないが、水性媒体と高分子増粘剤とその他添加剤を所定量配合し、ディゾルバー等の攪拌機やボールミル、サンドミル、アジホモミキサー等を適宜組み合わせて混合分散させるのが好ましい。
(Method for producing lubricant composition)
The method for producing the lubricant composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, but a predetermined amount of an aqueous medium, a polymer thickener, and other additives are blended, and a stirrer such as a dissolver, a ball mill, a sand mill, an azimo homomixer, etc. are appropriately used. It is preferable to mix and disperse in combination.

(組み付け方法)
本発明におけるシール部材の組み付け方法では、シール用部材と被組付部材との接触面に潤滑剤組成物が塗布される。具体的には、潤滑剤組成物をシール用部材又は被組付部材に塗布した後、潤滑剤組成物が乾燥する前に、シール用部材を被組付部材に組み付ける。シール用部材とは、例えば、オイルシール、Oリング、パッキン等のゴム製、プラスチック製部材である。また、本発明の潤滑剤組成物は、軸受、プッシュ、メカニカルシール等の金属製部材にも適用される。本発明の潤滑剤組成物を塗布すると、シール用部材の被組付部材への組み付けが容易となる。すなわち、本発明の潤滑剤組成物は、組み付け用潤滑剤組成物である。塗布方法は、特に限定されないが、例えばスプレー法、ディッピング法、フローコート法、ディスペンザー法、スピンコート法が挙げられる。それぞれの塗布方法に応じて、潤滑剤組成物の製造時又は塗布前に、溶剤により粘度の調整をすることができる。
(Assembly method)
In the method for assembling the seal member in the present invention, the lubricant composition is applied to the contact surface between the seal member and the member to be assembled. Specifically, after the lubricant composition is applied to the sealing member or the member to be assembled, the sealing member is assembled to the member to be assembled before the lubricant composition is dried. The sealing member is, for example, a rubber or plastic member such as an oil seal, an O-ring, or packing. The lubricant composition of the present invention is also applied to metal members such as bearings, pushes, and mechanical seals. When the lubricant composition of the present invention is applied, the sealing member can be easily assembled to the member to be assembled. That is, the lubricant composition of the present invention is an assembly lubricant composition. The application method is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a spray method, a dipping method, a flow coat method, a dispenser method, and a spin coat method. Depending on each application method, the viscosity can be adjusted with a solvent during the production of the lubricant composition or before application.

[Evaluation results of lubricant composition]
Figure 2014125492

実施例1〜6のとおり、潤滑剤組成物の見掛け粘度が800〜8000mPa・sである場合には、塗布直後の摩擦係数が低く、乾燥後の摩擦係数が高い値を示し、塗布作業性も良好であった。一方、潤滑剤組成物を塗布していない比較例1では、塗布直後の摩擦係数が1.5と非常に高い値を示した。また、高分子増粘剤を含有していない比較例2では、塗布作業性は良好であるが、見掛け粘度が低いため十分な溶剤膜を形成することができなかった。その結果、塗布直後の摩擦係数が高い値を示した。また、比較例3では、塗布作業性は良好であるが、カルボキシビニルポリマーの配合率が低いため十分な見掛け粘度が得られず、塗布直後の摩擦係数が高い値を示した。また、比較例4では、塗布直後の摩擦係数は低く良好であるが、カルボキシビニルポリマーの配合率が高いため塗布作業性が悪く、塗布後にポリマー成分が目視で判断できるほど析出してしまい、乾燥後の摩擦係数も低い値を示した。また、汎用組み付け用オイルを用いた比較例5では、塗布直後の摩擦係数は低く良好であるが、組み付け後もオイル成分が残った。また、乾燥後の摩擦係数も低いため、組み付けたシール用部材が組み付け位置から外れやすく、シール性等に悪影響を及ぼすことが懸念される。   As in Examples 1 to 6, when the apparent viscosity of the lubricant composition is 800 to 8000 mPa · s, the coefficient of friction immediately after application is low, the coefficient of friction after drying is high, and the workability of application is also high. It was good. On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1 in which the lubricant composition was not applied, the friction coefficient immediately after application was as high as 1.5. In Comparative Example 2 containing no polymer thickener, the coating workability was good, but a sufficient solvent film could not be formed due to the low apparent viscosity. As a result, the coefficient of friction immediately after application showed a high value. In Comparative Example 3, the coating workability was good, but a sufficient apparent viscosity was not obtained due to the low blending ratio of carboxyvinyl polymer, and the coefficient of friction immediately after coating showed a high value. In Comparative Example 4, the coefficient of friction immediately after coating is low and good, but the coating workability is poor due to the high blending ratio of the carboxyvinyl polymer, and the polymer component is precipitated after coating so that it can be judged visually, and is dried. The later coefficient of friction also showed a low value. In Comparative Example 5 using general-purpose assembly oil, the coefficient of friction immediately after application was low and good, but the oil component remained after assembly. In addition, since the coefficient of friction after drying is low, the assembled sealing member is likely to be detached from the assembly position, and there is a concern that the sealing performance and the like may be adversely affected.

以上のとおり、本発明の潤滑剤組成物は、良好な摩擦係数および塗布作業性を有している。このため、挿入抵抗の低減、及び組み付け後のシール性の確保を目的とした組み付け用潤滑剤組成物として有用である。   As described above, the lubricant composition of the present invention has a good friction coefficient and coating workability. For this reason, it is useful as a lubricant composition for assembly for the purpose of reducing insertion resistance and ensuring sealing performance after assembly.

本発明の潤滑剤組成物は、組み付け用途に使用できる。より具体的に、Oリング、オイルシール、ガスケット、パッキン等のゴム製又は樹脂製部材を、金属製の被組付部材に組み付ける際に使用できる。また、転がり軸受、すべり軸受、ブッシュ、メカニカルシール等の金属製部材を、金属製の被組付部材に組み付ける際に使用できる。   The lubricant composition of the present invention can be used for assembling applications. More specifically, it can be used when a rubber or resin member such as an O-ring, oil seal, gasket, or packing is assembled to a metal member to be assembled. Further, it can be used when a metal member such as a rolling bearing, a slide bearing, a bush, or a mechanical seal is assembled to a metal assembly member.
