Description

The present invention relates to resin compositions and films.

BACKGROUND ART In display devices such as liquid crystal, organic EL, and electronic paper, and in electronic devices such as solar cells and touch panels, thinning, weight reduction, and flexibility are required. By replacing the glass material used in these devices with a film material, flexibility, thinness, and weight reduction can be achieved. A transparent polyimide film has been developed as a substitute material for glass and is used for display substrates, cover films, and the like.

A normal polyimide film is obtained by coating a polyamic acid solution, which is a polyimide precursor, on a support in the form of a film, and subjecting it to a high temperature treatment to remove the solvent and perform thermal imidization at the same time. However, the heating temperature for thermal imidization is high (for example, 300 ° C. or higher), and coloring (increase in yellowness) due to heating is likely to occur, making it difficult to apply to applications requiring high transparency such as cover films for displays. Have difficulty.

As a method for producing a highly transparent polyimide film, a method using a polyimide resin that is soluble in an organic solvent and does not require high-temperature imidization after film formation has been proposed. For example, Patent Document 1 proposes a method for producing a polyimide containing a bis-trimmellitic anhydride as a tetracarboxylic dianhydride component, and the polyimide obtained by this method is dissolved in a low boiling point solvent such as dichloromethane. It is described as being soluble and having excellent transparency and mechanical strength.

WO2020/004236

Introducing a rigid structure into polyimide improves its mechanical strength, but it also causes a decrease in its solubility in organic solvents and transparency. It's not easy to have. In view of such problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a transparent film that is highly transparent, can reduce coloring, and has sufficient mechanical strength, and a resin composition that is used for producing the transparent film.

As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have found that the above problems can be solved by using the following resin composition. The present invention has the following configurations.

1). A resin composition containing polyimide and acrylic resin,
The polyimide has a structure derived from tetracarboxylic dianhydride and a structure derived from diamine,

4). The resin composition according to any one of 1) to 3), wherein the condensation structure of fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine and dicarboxylic acid accounts for 20 mol% or more of the diamine-derived structure of the polyimide.

5). The resin composition according to any one of 1) to 4), wherein the fluorine-containing aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydride of the polyimide is 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride. .

6). The resin composition according to any one of 1) to 5), wherein the content of the fluorine-containing aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydride is 50 mol% or more with respect to 100 mol% of the total amount of the acid dianhydride component of the polyimide.

7). The resin composition according to any one of 1) to 6), wherein the acrylic resin contains 60% by weight or more of methyl methacrylate relative to the total amount of monomer components.

8). The resin composition according to any one of 1) to 7), wherein the acrylic resin has a glass transition temperature of 100°C or higher.

9). The resin composition according to any one of 1) to 8), comprising the polyimide and the acrylic resin in a weight ratio ranging from 98:2 to 2:98.

10). A film comprising the resin composition according to any one of 1) to 9).

11). The film according to 10), which has a thickness of 5 μm or more and 300 μm or less.

However, X in general formula (2) represents a tetravalent organic group and Y represents a divalent organic group.

(diamine)
The polyimide used in this embodiment contains a condensed structure of fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine and dicarboxylic acid as a diamine-derived structure. Having a fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine in the diamine-derived structure tends to achieve both the solubility and transparency of the polyimide resin.

Examples of fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidines include 2-(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 3-(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine , 2,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,3,5-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,3,6-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,3,5,6-tetrakis (trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,2′-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 3,3′-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,3′-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,2′ ,3-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,3,3′-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,2′,5-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,2′,6-tris( trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,3′,5-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,3′,6-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,2′,3,3′-tetrakis(trifluoro methyl)benzidine, 2,2',5,5'-tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine, 2,2',6,6'-tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine and the like.

Among them, fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine having a fluoroalkyl group at the 2-position of biphenyl is preferred, and 2,2'-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine (hereinafter referred to as "TFMB") is particularly preferred. By having fluoroalkyl groups at the 2- and 2′-positions of biphenyl, in addition to the reduction in π electron density due to the electron-withdrawing property of the fluoroalkyl groups, the steric hindrance of the fluoroalkyl groups results in the separation of two benzene rings of biphenyl. Since the interbonds are twisted and the planarity of the π-conjugation is lowered, the absorption edge wavelength is shifted to a shorter wavelength, and coloring of the polyimide can be reduced.

A preferred example of the diamine containing a condensed structure of the fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine and dicarboxylic acid is represented by general formula (4). provided that R ¹ and R ² in general formula (4) are independently halogen, methyl group, or trifluoromethyl group, m is an integer of 0 to 3, and either R ¹ or R ² m is not 0. R ³ is an unsubstituted benzene ring or biphenyl, or a benzene ring or biphenyl substituted with halogen, methyl group or trifluoromethyl group.

In general formula (4), the structure of a diamine obtained by condensing two fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidines and one dicarboxylic acid is exemplified. Even with a diamine in which four are condensed with three dicarboxylic acids, a diamine in which five fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidines and four dicarboxylic acids are condensed, the resulting polyimide tends to exhibit high elasticity and high transparency. It is preferable because

A structure corresponding to general formula (4) may also be introduced into a polyimide by a method of condensing a fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine-terminated polyamic acid oligomer or a fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine-terminated polyimide oligomer with a dicarboxylic acid or a dichloride of a dicarboxylic acid. can be done.

From the viewpoint of exhibiting transparency and high elasticity, the general formula (4) is preferably a condensation structure of 2,2'-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine and a dicarboxylic acid, and the dicarboxylic acid is terephthalic acid. One is more preferred because it exhibits a higher modulus.

The content of diamine containing a condensation structure of fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine and dicarboxylic acid is preferably 20 mol% or more, more preferably 30 mol% or more, still more preferably 40 mol% or more, and 45 mol% with respect to 100 mol% of the total diamine component. % or more, 50 mol % or more, or 60 mol % or more. A high content of diamine containing a condensation structure of fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine and dicarboxylic acid tends to suppress coloration of the film and increase mechanical strength such as pencil hardness and elastic modulus. Although general formula (4) has two fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidines, when calculating the content of fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidines with respect to 100 mol % of the total amount of diamine components, it is calculated as one diamine.

(Condensation structure of fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine and dicarboxylic acid)
The polyimide used in this embodiment has a diamine-derived structure that is a condensed structure of fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine and dicarboxylic acid. Preferred examples of dicarboxylic acids include aliphatic dicarboxylic acids such as adipic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, dodecanedioic acid, terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, 2-chloroterephthalic acid, 2-methylterephthalic acid, 5- Aromatic dicarboxylic acids such as methylisophthalic acid, 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 4,4'-oxybisbenzoic acid, biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid, 2-fluoroterephthalic acid, 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid , 1,3-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, 1,2-hexahydroterephthalic acid, hexahydroisophthalic acid, cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, 1,3-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid and other alicyclic dicarboxylic acids, 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid , 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and other heterocyclic dicarboxylic acids. These may be chlorides. As a result, there is a tendency to achieve both the solubility and transparency of the polyimide resin and compatibility with the acrylic resin. From the viewpoint of elastic modulus and solvent solubility, terephthalic acid and/or isophthalic acid are particularly preferred dicarboxylic acids.

From the viewpoint of obtaining a polyimide resin having both solubility in an organic solvent and compatibility with an acrylic resin, the content of the fluorine-containing aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydride with respect to 100 mol% of the total amount of the acid dianhydride component is 50 mol% or more is preferable, 60 mol% or more is more preferable, 70 mol% or more is further preferable, 75 mol% or more, 80 mol% or more, 85 mol% or more, 90 mol% or more, or 95 mol% or more good too.

(Preparation of polyimide)
A polyamic acid is obtained as a polyimide precursor by reacting an acid dianhydride and a diamine, and a polyimide is obtained by cyclodehydration (imidization) of the polyamic acid. As described above, by adjusting the composition of the polyimide, that is, the type and ratio of the acid dianhydride and the diamine, the polyimide has transparency and solubility in organic solvents, and compatibility with the acrylic resin. show.

A method for preparing polyamic acid is not particularly limited, and any known method can be applied. For example, an acid dianhydride, a dicarboxylic acid compound and a diamine are dissolved in approximately equimolar amounts (molar ratio of 95:100 to 105:100) in an organic solvent and stirred to obtain a polyamic acid solution. . The concentration of the polyamic acid solution is usually 5-35% by weight, preferably 10-30% by weight. When the concentration is within this range, the polyamic acid obtained by polymerization has an appropriate molecular weight and the polyamic acid solution has an appropriate viscosity.

In the polymerization of polyamic acid, it is preferable to add an acid dianhydride or a dicarboxylic acid compound to the diamine in order to suppress the ring opening of the acid dianhydride. When adding multiple types of diamines, multiple types of acid dianhydrides, or dicarboxylic acid compounds, they may be added at once or may be added in multiple portions. Various physical properties of the polyimide can also be controlled by adjusting the addition order of the monomers.

The organic solvent used for polyamic acid polymerization is not particularly limited as long as it does not react with diamines and acid dianhydrides and can dissolve polyamic acid. Examples of organic solvents include urea-based solvents such as methylurea and N,N-dimethylethylurea; sulfoxide or sulfone-based solvents such as dimethylsulfoxide, diphenylsulfone, and tetramethylsulfone; N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc); N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N'-diethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), γ-butyrolactone, amide solvents such as hexamethylphosphoric triamide, halogenation such as chloroform and methylene chloride Examples include alkyl solvents, aromatic hydrocarbon solvents such as benzene and toluene, and ether solvents such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,3-dioxolane, 1,4-dioxane, dimethyl ether, diethyl ether and p-cresol methyl ether. These solvents are usually used alone or in combination of two or more as needed. DMAc, DMF, NMP and the like are preferably used from the viewpoint of the solubility and polymerization reactivity of polyamic acid.

Polyimides are obtained by cyclodehydration of polyamic acid. As a method for preparing a polyimide from a polyamic acid solution, there is a method in which a dehydrating agent, an imidization catalyst, etc. are added to the polyamic acid solution and imidization proceeds in the solution. The polyamic acid solution may be heated to accelerate imidization. By mixing a solution containing polyimide produced by imidization of polyamic acid with a poor solvent, the polyimide resin is precipitated as a solid matter. By isolating the polyimide resin as a solid, impurities generated during the synthesis of polyamic acid, residual dehydrating agent, imidization catalyst, etc. can be washed and removed with a poor solvent, resulting in polyimide coloration and yellowness. etc. can be prevented. In addition, by isolating the polyimide resin as a solid, a solvent suitable for film formation, such as a low boiling point solvent, can be applied when preparing a solution for producing a film.

The molecular weight of the polyimide (polyethylene oxide equivalent weight average molecular weight measured by gel filtration chromatography (GPC)) is preferably 10,000 to 300,000, more preferably 20,000 to 250,000, and 40,000 to 200,000 is more preferred. If the molecular weight is too small, the strength of the film may be insufficient. If the molecular weight is too large, the compatibility with the acrylic resin may be poor.

From the viewpoint of the thermal stability and light stability of the resin composition and film, the polyimide preferably has a low acid value and a high imidization rate. The acid value of polyimide is preferably 0.4 mmol/g or less, more preferably 0.3 mmol/g or less, and even more preferably 0.2 mmol/g or less. The acid value of the polyimide may be 0.1 mmol/g or less, 0.05 mmol/g or less, or 0.03 mmol/g or less. The imidization rate of the polyimide is preferably 95% or higher, more preferably 96% or higher, still more preferably 97% or higher, and may be 98% or higher and 99% or higher. A low acid value and a high imidization ratio tend to enhance the stability of the polyimide and improve the compatibility with the acrylic resin.

<Acrylic resin>
Examples of acrylic resins include poly(meth)acrylic acid esters such as polymethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate-(meth)acrylic acid copolymer, methyl methacrylate-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymer, methyl methacrylate- Acrylic acid ester-(meth)acrylic acid copolymer, methyl (meth)acrylate-styrene copolymer and the like. The acrylic resin may be modified to introduce a glutarimide structural unit or a lactone ring structural unit.

From the viewpoint of transparency and compatibility with polyimide, the acrylic resin preferably has methyl methacrylate as a main structural unit. The amount of methyl methacrylate relative to the total amount of monomer components in the acrylic resin is preferably 60% by weight or more, and may be 70% by weight or more, 80% by weight or more, or 90% by weight or more. The acrylic resin may be a homopolymer of methyl methacrylate.

From the viewpoint of heat resistance of the film, the glass transition temperature of the acrylic resin is preferably 100° C. or higher, and may be 105° C. or higher, 110° C. or higher, 115° C. or higher, or 120° C. or higher.

From the viewpoint of the thermal stability and light stability of the resin composition and film, the acrylic resin preferably contains a small amount of reactive functional groups such as ethylenically unsaturated groups and carboxyl groups. The iodine value of the acrylic resin is preferably 10.16 g/100 g (0.4 mmol/g) or less, more preferably 7.62 g/100 g (0.3 mmol/g) or less, and 5.08 g/100 g (0.2 mmol/g). /g) or less is more preferable. The iodine value of the acrylic resin may be 2.54 g/100 g (0.1 mmol/g) or less or 1.27 g/100 g (0.05 mmol/g) or less. The acid value of the acrylic resin is preferably 0.4 mmol/g or less, more preferably 0.3 mmol/g or less, and even more preferably 0.2 mmol/g or less. The acid value of the acrylic resin may be 0.1 mmol/g or less, 0.05 mmol/g or less, or 0.03 mmol/g or less. A low acid value tends to increase the stability of the acrylic resin and improve the compatibility with polyimide.

<Preparation of resin composition>
A resin composition is prepared by mixing the polyimide resin and the acrylic resin. Since the polyimide resin and the acrylic resin can exhibit compatibility at any ratio, the ratio of the polyimide resin and the acrylic resin in the resin composition is not particularly limited. The mixing ratio (weight ratio) of the polyimide resin and the acrylic resin may be 98:2-2:98, 95:5-10:90, or 90:10-15:85. The higher the proportion of the polyimide resin, the higher the elastic modulus and pencil hardness of the film, which tends to be excellent in mechanical strength. The higher the proportion of the acrylic resin, the less the film is colored and the more transparent it tends to be. In order to fully exhibit the effect of improving transparency by mixing polyimide and acrylic resin, the ratio of acrylic resin to the total of polyimide and acrylic resin is preferably 10% by weight or more, 15% by weight or more, It may be 20% by weight or more, 25% by weight or more, 30% by weight or more, 35% by weight or more, 40% by weight or more, 45% by weight or more, or 50% by weight or more.

The resin composition containing polyimide and acrylic resin preferably has a single glass transition temperature in differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and/or dynamic viscoelasticity measurement (DMA). When the resin composition has a single glass transition temperature, it can be considered that the polyimide and the acrylic resin are completely compatible. Films containing polyimide and acrylic resins also preferably have a single glass transition temperature.

The resin composition may be a mixed solution containing a polyimide resin and an acrylic resin. The method of mixing the resins is not particularly limited, and the resins may be mixed in a solid state or mixed in a liquid to form a mixed solution. A polyimide resin solution and an acrylic resin solution may be separately prepared and mixed to prepare a mixed solution of a polyimide resin and an acrylic resin.

The solvent for the solution containing the polyimide resin and the acrylic resin is not particularly limited as long as it exhibits solubility in both the polyimide resin and the acrylic resin. Examples of solvents include amide solvents such as N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone; ether solvents such as tetrahydrofuran and 1,4-dioxane; acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, ketone solvents such as methyl propyl ketone, methyl isopropyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, diethyl ketone, cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, methyl cyclohexanone; chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane, chlorobenzene, Examples thereof include halogenated alkyl solvents such as dichlorobenzene and methylene chloride. Among them, amide-based solvents or ketone-based solvents are preferable because they have excellent solubility in both polyimide resins and acrylic resins.

A resin composition containing polyimide and an acrylic resin has a solution viscosity lower than that of polyimide alone when compared at the same solid content concentration. By lowering the viscosity of the mixed solution containing the polyimide resin, the acrylic resin and the solvent, there are advantages such as less unevenness in the thickness of the film and easier film formation. Moreover, since the melt viscosity of the resin composition is lower than that of polyimide alone, there is an advantage that it can be used for transfer molding, compression molding, and injection molding.

An organic or inorganic low-molecular-weight or high-molecular-weight compound may be added to the resin composition (solution) for the purpose of improving the workability of the film, imparting various functions, or the like. Examples of polymer compounds include epoxy resins. The resin composition may contain flame retardants, ultraviolet absorbers, cross-linking agents, dyes, pigments, surfactants, leveling agents, plasticizers, fine particles, fiber reinforcements, sensitizers and the like. The fine particles include organic fine particles such as polystyrene and polytetrafluoroethylene, inorganic fine particles such as colloidal silica, carbon, and layered silicate, and the like, and may have a porous or hollow structure. Fiber reinforcements include carbon fibers, glass fibers, aramid fibers, and the like.

[the film]
A film is obtained by applying a solution containing the above polyimide resin and acrylic resin onto a support and removing the solvent by drying.

As a method for applying the resin solution onto the support, a known method using a bar coater, a comma coater, or the like can be applied. As the support, a glass substrate, a metal substrate such as SUS, a metal drum, a metal belt, a plastic film, or the like can be used. From the viewpoint of improving productivity, it is preferable to use an endless support such as a metal drum, a metal belt, or a long plastic film as the support and to produce the film by roll-to-roll. When a plastic film is used as the support, a material that does not dissolve in the solvent of the film-forming dope may be appropriately selected.

It is preferable to heat when drying the solvent. The heating temperature is not particularly limited as long as the solvent can be removed and the coloration of the resulting film can be suppressed. The heating temperature may be increased stepwise. In order to increase the removal efficiency of the solvent, the resin film may be peeled off from the support and dried after drying has progressed to some extent. Heating under reduced pressure may be used to facilitate solvent removal.

Acrylic films may have low toughness, but the use of a compatible system of polyimide and acrylic resin may improve the strength of the film. The film may be stretched in one direction or in multiple directions for the purpose of improving the mechanical strength of the film. When the film is stretched, the polymer chains are oriented in the stretching direction, so that the strength in the direction perpendicular to the stretching direction is improved, and the film tends to be prevented from breaking or cracking. From the viewpoint of increasing the strength in any in-plane direction, it is preferable to biaxially stretch the film.

The thickness of the film is not particularly limited, and may be appropriately set according to the application. The thickness of the film can be, for example, 5-300 μm. From the viewpoint of achieving both self-supporting property and flexibility and making a highly transparent film, the thickness of the film is preferably 20 μm to 100 μm, and may be 30 μm to 90 μm, 40 μm to 85 μm, or 50 μm to 80 μm. . The thickness of the film used as a cover film for displays is preferably 50 μm or more.

The haze of the film is preferably 10% or less, more preferably 5% or less, still more preferably 4% or less, and may be 3.5% or less, 3% or less, 2% or less, or 1% or less. The lower the haze of the film, the better. As described above, since polyimide and acrylic resin exhibit compatibility, a film with low haze and high transparency can be obtained. The resin composition obtained by mixing polyimide and acrylic resin preferably has a haze of 10% or less when a film having a thickness of 50 μm is produced.

The total light transmittance (TT) of the film is preferably 85% or higher, more preferably 87% or higher, even more preferably 89% or higher, particularly preferably 90% or higher, and may be 91% or higher. The higher the TT of the film, the better. As described above, since polyimide and acrylic resin exhibit compatibility, a film with high TT and high transparency can be obtained. The resin composition obtained by mixing polyimide and acrylic resin preferably has a TT of 85% or more when a film having a thickness of 50 μm is produced. The transmittance of the film at 400 nm is preferably 50% or higher, more preferably 70% or higher, even more preferably 80% or higher, particularly preferably 85% or higher, and may be 90% or higher.

The yellowness index (YI) of the film is preferably 5.0 or less, more preferably 4.0 or less, still more preferably 3.5 or less, particularly preferably 3.0 or less, and 2.5 or less or 2.0 or less. There may be. As described above, by mixing the polyimide resin and the acrylic resin, a film with less coloring and a smaller YI can be obtained than when the polyimide resin is used alone. The resin composition obtained by mixing polyimide and acrylic resin preferably has a YI of 5.0 or less when a film having a thickness of 50 μm is produced.

From the viewpoint of strength, the tensile modulus of the film is preferably 3.5 GPa or more, and may be 4.0 GPa or more. The pencil hardness of the film is preferably F or higher, and may be H or higher or 2H or higher. In a compatible system of polyimide and acrylic resin, the pencil hardness is less likely to decrease even if the proportion of acrylic resin is increased. On the contrary, it tends to be higher than the pencil hardness of polyimide alone. Therefore, it is possible to provide a film with little coloration and excellent transparency without greatly deteriorating the excellent mechanical strength peculiar to polyimide.

[Evaluation results]
Table 1 shows the resin composition (polyimide composition, type of acrylic resin, and mixing ratio) and evaluation results of the film.

In Table 1, compounds are described by the following abbreviations.
<Acid dianhydride>
6FDA: 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride <dicarboxylic acid compound>
TPC: terephthalic acid chloride <diamine>
TFMB: 2,2'-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine

A polyimide resin and an acrylic resin 1 containing a fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine in a diamine-derived structure, a fluorine-containing aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydride in a tetracarboxylic dianhydride-derived structure, and a TPC in a dicarboxylic acid compound-derived structure. In Example 1 using the resin composition mixed with, the increase in haze was suppressed as compared with Comparative Example 1. In Example 1, compared with Reference Example 1, tensile modulus, pencil hardness and bending resistance were improved.

The acrylic film of Reference Example 1 produced using only acrylic resin 1 had a low tensile modulus, a pencil hardness of HB, and insufficient mechanical strength.

The polyimide film of Reference Example 2, which was produced using only the polyimide resin described in Example 1, had a YI of 2.7 and insufficient transparency.

In Comparative Example 1 using a resin composition in which a polyimide resin containing no TPC and acrylic resin 1 were mixed, the haze of the film was greatly increased, and the bending resistance was insufficient. This is probably because the polyimide resin and the acrylic resin did not exhibit compatibility.

From the above results, a polyimide containing a fluoroalkyl-substituted benzidine in the diamine-derived structure, a fluorine-containing aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydride in the tetracarboxylic dianhydride-derived structure, and a terephthalic acid chloride in the dicarboxylic acid-derived structure shows compatibility with acrylic resins, and it can be seen that a film having high transparency and excellent mechanical strength can be obtained by using a resin composition in which these are mixed.
