Description

【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はブロー成形、発泡成形、押出成形、真空成形用の原料として適したポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物に関する。さらに詳しくは、高溶融張力を有し、且つブロー成形、発泡成形、押出成形、熱成形性に優れたポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
ポリプロピレンは、機械的性質、耐薬品性に優れ、また経済性とのバランスにおいて極めて優れているため、各成形分野に広く用いられている。
【0003】
しかしながら、溶融張力が小さいため、ブロー成形、発泡成形、熱成形等において加工特性が劣り、用途展開の制約になっていた。このため、成形性を改良することを目的としたポリプロピレンの溶融張力を高める方法が各種提案されている。
【0004】
例えば、特開平2−298536はポリプロピレンに低温分解型過酸化物を反応させて長鎖分岐を有するポリプロピレンを得る方法が提案されている。しかしながらこの方法で得られたポリプロピレンは溶融張力の向上が不十分であったり、過酸化物由来の臭気、未分解残渣あるいは分解残渣による食品衛生上の問題があった。
【0005】
また特開平6−157666では特定の有機過酸化物を不活性ガス雰囲気下でポリプロピレンと反応させた後に溶融混練することで溶融張力を高める方法が提案されているが、溶融混練前の反応に特殊な処理を必要とするため材料の生産性に問題があったり、過酸化物に由来する材料品質の経時劣化等の問題があった。
【0006】
さらに、上記のような過酸化物による改質処理を行わずにポリプロピレンの溶融張力を高める方法も各種提案されており、例えば、特開平5−214184ではポリプロピレンにポリテトラフルオロエチレン(PTFE)を混合して溶融張力を高める方法が提案されているが、PTFEの分散性が不十分なために溶融張力の向上が不十分になったり、発泡成形のような微細気泡構造が要求される成形において発泡セルが粗大になるという問題があった。
【0007】
この他にも溶融張力の高い低密度ポリエチレンなどをブレンドする方法などが公知であるが、剛性、耐熱性などのポリプロピレン本来の優れた物性が低下してしまうという問題を内在していた。
【0008】
【発明が解決しようとしている課題】
本発明は、上記の問題に鑑み、ポリプロピレン系が有する機械的性質、耐薬品性、経済性とのバランス等の良好な性質を損なわずに溶融張力を向上させ、かつ発泡セルを均一微細化するような微視的レベルにおいても優れた特性を発現できるポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物を提供することにある。
【0009】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは上記目的を達成するため鋭意検討をした結果、ある特定の物性を有する樹脂を重合することにより上記問題が解決されることを見出し本発明に到った。
【0010】
すなわち、本発明は、少なくとも下記の成分(A)と成分(B)とからなり、下記1)〜3)の物性を有するポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物であって、最初に成分(A)を重合する工程(1)と、次いで成分(B)を重合する工程(2)の2段階重合により得られることを特徴とするポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物を提供するものである。
【0011】
成分(A):MFRが10〜1000g/10minのプロピレン単独重合体又はプロピレン以外のオレフィン含量が1重量%未満のプロピレン共重合体:全重合体に占める割合が50〜90重量%、
成分(B):重量平均分子量が50万〜1000万、他のオレフィンの割合が1〜15重量%のプロピレン共重合体:全重合体に占める割合が10〜50重量%、
ポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物:
1)MFRが0.1〜20g/10min、
2)溶融張力(MT)とMFRが以下の関係を満たす、
logMT>−0.97×logMFR+1.23
3)最長緩和時間(τd)が100秒以上、
【0012】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明のポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物は、成分(A)プロピレン単独重合体又はプロピレン以外のオレフィン含量が1重量%未満のプロピレン共重合体と、成分(B)他のオレフィンの割合が1〜15重量%のプロピレン共重合体から構成される。
【0013】
このポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物を得るための触媒系としては、チタン含有固体触媒成分と有機アルミニウム化合物とを主体とするもの、またはπ電子共役配位子を少なくとも1個有するメタロセン系の遷移金属化合物を用いることができる。
【0014】
メタロセン化合物はアルミノキサン類を助触媒として用いられることもあるし、シリカや粘土鉱物に担持されて使用されることもある。メタロセン触媒の具体的例示としては特開平8−217928、特開平8−238731、特開平8−183814、特開平8−208733、特開平8−85707などがある。
【0015】
チタン含有固体触媒成分は、固体のマグネシウム化合物、四ハロゲン化チタン及び電子供与性化合物を接触させて得られる公知の担持型触媒成分、三塩化チタンを主成分として含む公知の触媒成分から選ばれる。
【0016】
助触媒のアルミニウム化合物は、一般式AlRn3-n(式中Rは炭素数2から10の炭化水素基を表し、nは3≧n>1.5の数を表す)で表される。チタン含有固体触媒成分が固体のマグネシウム化合物を含有する担体担持型触媒成分である場合はAlR3またはAlR3とAlR2Xの混合物を使用するのが好ましく、一方三塩化チタンあるいは三塩化チタンを主成分として含む触媒成分である場合はAlR2Xを使用するのが好ましい。さらに本発明においては上記触媒および共触媒成分の他に第3成分として公知の電子供与性化合物を使用することができる。
【0017】
また、本発明のポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物を得るための重合反応は、たとえばヘキサン、ヘプタンなどの不活性溶媒の存在下でも、不存在下、即ち液体プロピレンの存在下あるいは気相プロピレン中でも行うことができる。
【0018】
反応は1基の重合槽を用いて回分式に行うこともできるし、2基以上の重合槽を直列につないで連続的に行うこともできる。
【0019】
重合の順位は最初に成分(A)を重合し次いで成分(B)を重合す2段階で行なわれる。なお、付加的に重合を行ない3段階、4段階で行ってもよい。
【0020】
触媒は、第1段階で重合前に添加されるのが一般的である。後段に於いて触媒を補充することを必ずしも排除するものではないが、樹脂のブレンドでは得られない特性を得るためには、触媒は第1段階で添加するのが好ましい。
【0021】
また、プロピレンと共重合される他のオレフィンとしてはエチレンを含み、具体的には、エチレン、1−ブテン、1−ヘキセン、1−オクテン等を用いることができる。
【0022】
成分(A)を得るための工程(1)は、プロピレンあるいはプロピレンと少量の他のオレフィンを水素の存在下に重合する。水素は工程(1)で得られる重合体のMFRが10〜1000の範囲となるように制御される。一般には水素濃度(スラリー重合においては気相部濃度、液体プロピレン中の重合あるいは気相法においてはモノマー中の含有量を指す)が1〜50mol%、好ましくは3〜30mol%添加される。
【0023】
プロピレンと共重合される他のオレフィンは、間欠的に添加することもできるし、プロピレン等と共に連続的に供給することもできる。工程(1)の重合温度は一般に40〜90℃であり、全重合量の50〜90重量%、好ましくは60〜80重量%を製造する。
【0024】
成分(B)を得るための工程(2)は高分子量成分を得るための重合であり、水素濃度は0.1mol%以下の実質的に無水素状態で重合を進行せしめる。工程(2)で得られる重合体の重量平均分子量は50万〜1000万であり、好ましくは80万〜500万である。
【0025】
重合温度は通常40〜90℃、好ましくは50〜80℃であり、共重合コモノマーとして用いられるオレフィンはエチレンを含み、具体的にはエチレン、1−ブテン、1−ヘキセン、1−オクテンなどから選ばれる。コモノマー含量は通常1〜15重量%、好ましくは3〜10重量%である。コモノマー含量が高すぎても、低すぎても高分子量成分の分散が悪くなり溶融張力向上効果が低下する。
【0026】
工程(2)で得られる重合体は全重合体の10〜50重量%であり、好ましくは20〜40重量%である。
【0027】
重量平均分子量は、GPCを用いて前段重合終了後に得られた重合体と最終重合体の両者を測定し、両者の差と前段重合の重合体量と最終重合体量の関係から算出することができる。
【0028】
工程(1)及び工程(2)で得られた最終重合体のMFRは0.1〜20g/10min、好ましくは0.5〜10g/10min、他のオレフィン含有量は0.5〜8.5重量%、好ましくは1.0〜5.0重量%である。
【0029】
また、本発明のポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物は、溶融張力(MT)とMFRの間に下記関係が成立することを特徴とする。
【0030】
logMT>−0.97×logMFR+1.23
上記の関係式は溶融張力と流動性のバランスを表すものであり、上式を満足することは、高い溶融張力を発現しながら流動性、押出特性が良好であることに相当する。すなわち、本発明のポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物はブロー成形、発泡成形、熱成形等の加工特性と、押出特性とのバランスが良好であることを意味するものである。
【0031】
一方、従来の汎用のポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物は上式において左辺<右辺であり、本発明の樹脂組成物に比べると同一MTにおけるMFRは小さくなるため、流動性が悪化する。
【0032】
また、本発明のポリプロピレン系樹脂組成物は、最長緩和時間(τd)が100秒以上であることを特徴とする。上記τdは応力緩和測定より求められ,変形を加えられた分子鎖が配向を変えずに緩和する配向緩和を経て、変形前のランダム状態に戻るまでの時間を意味する。
【0033】
このτdはブロー成形、発泡成形、熱成形等の加工特性と密接に関連しており、τdが大きいほど加工特性に優れるものと考えられる。τdは、高分子量成分、もしくは分岐成分のいずれか、もしくは両者の存在により長大化する傾向がみられるが、伸長粘度の非線形性とは必ずしも一致しない。すなわちτdは、伸長粘度の非線形性を規定するものではなく、伸長変形時の均一延展性を規定するものである。
【0034】
本発明者らが検討した結果、τdが100秒より小さい場合には、長緩和時間成分の寄与が小さくなるために加工特性に支障を来す。すなわち、τd≧100秒を満足させることが、高溶融張力を必要とする成形加工において必須の条件である。
【0035】
【実施例】
以下、本発明を実施例によってさらに詳細に説明するが、本発明は以下の実施例に限定されるものではない。なお、実施例中、樹脂組成物の各種物性の評価方法は次の通りである。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a polypropylene resin composition suitable as a raw material for blow molding, foam molding, extrusion molding, and vacuum molding. More specifically, the present invention relates to a polypropylene resin composition having a high melt tension and excellent in blow molding, foam molding, extrusion molding, and thermoformability.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Polypropylene is widely used in various molding fields because it is excellent in mechanical properties and chemical resistance and is extremely excellent in balance with economy.
[0003]
However, since the melt tension is small, the processing characteristics are inferior in blow molding, foam molding, thermoforming, and the like, and this has been a restriction on application development. For this reason, various methods for increasing the melt tension of polypropylene for the purpose of improving moldability have been proposed.
[0004]
For example, JP-A-2-298536 proposes a method of obtaining a polypropylene having a long chain branch by reacting a low-temperature decomposition type peroxide with polypropylene. However, the polypropylene obtained by this method has insufficient improvement in melt tension, and has problems in food hygiene due to peroxide-derived odors, undecomposed residues or decomposed residues.
[0005]
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-157666 proposes a method in which a specific organic peroxide is reacted with polypropylene in an inert gas atmosphere and then melt-kneaded to increase the melt tension. Therefore, there has been a problem in the productivity of the material because of the need for an appropriate treatment, and problems such as deterioration of the material quality due to peroxide over time.
[0006]
Further, various methods for increasing the melt tension of polypropylene without performing the above-described modification treatment with peroxide have been proposed. For example, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-214184, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is mixed with polypropylene. Although a method for increasing the melt tension has been proposed, since the PTFE is not sufficiently dispersible, the melt tension cannot be improved sufficiently, or foaming is required for molding that requires a fine cell structure such as foam molding. There was a problem that the cell became coarse.
[0007]
In addition to this, a method of blending low density polyethylene or the like having a high melt tension is known, but there is a problem in that excellent physical properties of polypropylene such as rigidity and heat resistance are deteriorated.
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In view of the above problems, the present invention improves melt tension without impairing good properties such as the balance of mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and economic properties of polypropylene, and makes the foamed cells uniform and fine. An object of the present invention is to provide a polypropylene resin composition that can exhibit excellent characteristics even at such a microscopic level.
[0009]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
As a result of intensive studies to achieve the above object, the present inventors have found that the above problem can be solved by polymerizing a resin having a specific physical property, and have arrived at the present invention.
[0010]
That is, the present invention is a polypropylene resin composition comprising at least the following component (A) and component (B) and having the following physical properties 1) to 3) , and first polymerizes component (A). The present invention provides a polypropylene resin composition obtained by two-step polymerization of step (1) and then step (2) of polymerizing component (B) .
[0011]
Component (A): a propylene homopolymer having an MFR of 10 to 1000 g / 10 min or a propylene copolymer having an olefin content other than propylene of less than 1% by weight: the proportion of the total polymer is 50 to 90% by weight,
Component (B): Propylene copolymer having a weight average molecular weight of 500,000 to 10,000,000 and a proportion of other olefins of 1 to 15% by weight: 10 to 50% by weight of the total polymer
Polypropylene resin composition:
1) MFR is 0.1 to 20 g / 10 min,
2) Melt tension (MT) and MFR satisfy the following relationship:
logMT> −0.97 × logMFR + 1.23
3) Longest relaxation time (τd) is 100 seconds or more,
[0012]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The proportion of the component (A) propylene homopolymer or propylene copolymer having an olefin content other than propylene of less than 1% by weight and the component (B) other olefins is 1 to 15 wt. % Propylene copolymer.
[0013]
As a catalyst system for obtaining this polypropylene-based resin composition, a catalyst mainly composed of a titanium-containing solid catalyst component and an organoaluminum compound, or a metallocene-based transition metal compound having at least one π-electron conjugated ligand is used. Can be used.
[0014]
The metallocene compound may be used with an aluminoxane as a co-catalyst, or may be used by being supported on silica or clay mineral. Specific examples of the metallocene catalyst include JP-A-8-217928, JP-A-8-238731, JP-A-8-183814, JP-A-8-208733, and JP-A-8-85707.
[0015]
The titanium-containing solid catalyst component is selected from a known supported catalyst component obtained by contacting a solid magnesium compound, titanium tetrahalide and an electron donating compound, and a known catalyst component containing titanium trichloride as a main component.
[0016]
The aluminum compound of the promoter is represented by the general formula AlR n X 3-n (wherein R represents a hydrocarbon group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, and n represents a number of 3 ≧ n> 1.5). . When the titanium-containing solid catalyst component is a carrier-supported catalyst component containing a solid magnesium compound, it is preferable to use AlR 3 or a mixture of AlR 3 and AlR 2 X, while titanium trichloride or titanium trichloride is mainly used. When the catalyst component is included as a component, it is preferable to use AlR 2 X. Furthermore, in the present invention, a known electron donating compound can be used as the third component in addition to the catalyst and cocatalyst components.
[0017]
The polymerization reaction for obtaining the polypropylene resin composition of the present invention can be carried out in the presence of an inert solvent such as hexane or heptane, in the absence, that is, in the presence of liquid propylene or even in gas phase propylene. it can.
[0018]
The reaction can be carried out batchwise using one polymerization tank, or can be carried out continuously by connecting two or more polymerization tanks in series.
[0019]
Polymerization ranking is carried out first with you polymerizing components (A) and the polymerization then component (B) 2-stage. In addition, the polymerization may be additionally performed in three stages and four stages.
[0020]
The catalyst is generally added prior to polymerization in the first stage. Replenishment of the catalyst in the subsequent stage is not necessarily excluded, but it is preferable to add the catalyst in the first stage in order to obtain characteristics that cannot be obtained by resin blending.
[0021]
In addition, other olefins copolymerized with propylene include ethylene, and specifically, ethylene, 1-butene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, and the like can be used.
[0022]
In the step (1) for obtaining the component (A), propylene or propylene and a small amount of other olefin are polymerized in the presence of hydrogen. Hydrogen is controlled so that the MFR of the polymer obtained in step (1) is in the range of 10 to 1000. In general, the hydrogen concentration (in the case of slurry polymerization, the concentration in the gas phase portion, in the polymerization in liquid propylene or in the gas phase method indicates the content in the monomer) is added in an amount of 1 to 50 mol%, preferably 3 to 30 mol%.
[0023]
Other olefins copolymerized with propylene can be added intermittently or can be continuously supplied together with propylene and the like. The polymerization temperature in step (1) is generally 40 to 90 ° C., and 50 to 90% by weight, preferably 60 to 80% by weight of the total polymerization amount is produced.
[0024]
Step (2) for obtaining the component (B) is polymerization for obtaining a high molecular weight component, and the polymerization is allowed to proceed in a substantially hydrogen-free state with a hydrogen concentration of 0.1 mol% or less. The weight average molecular weight of the polymer obtained in the step (2) is 500,000 to 10,000,000, preferably 800,000 to 5,000,000.
[0025]
The polymerization temperature is usually from 40 to 90 ° C., preferably from 50 to 80 ° C., and the olefin used as the comonomer is selected from ethylene, 1-butene, 1-hexene, 1-octene and the like. It is. The comonomer content is usually 1 to 15% by weight, preferably 3 to 10% by weight. If the comonomer content is too high or too low, the dispersion of the high molecular weight component is deteriorated and the effect of improving the melt tension is lowered.
[0026]
The polymer obtained in step (2) is 10 to 50% by weight, preferably 20 to 40% by weight of the total polymer.
[0027]
The weight average molecular weight can be calculated by measuring both the polymer obtained after completion of the previous polymerization and the final polymer using GPC, and calculating the difference between the two and the relationship between the polymer content of the previous polymerization and the final polymer content. it can.
[0028]
The MFR of the final polymer obtained in step (1) and step (2) is 0.1 to 20 g / 10 min, preferably 0.5 to 10 g / 10 min, and the other olefin content is 0.5 to 8.5. % By weight, preferably 1.0 to 5.0% by weight.
[0029]
The polypropylene resin composition of the present invention is characterized in that the following relationship is established between melt tension (MT) and MFR.
[0030]
logMT> −0.97 × logMFR + 1.23
The above relational expression represents the balance between melt tension and fluidity, and satisfying the above expression corresponds to good fluidity and extrusion characteristics while expressing high melt tension. That is, it means that the polypropylene resin composition of the present invention has a good balance between processing characteristics such as blow molding, foam molding and thermoforming and extrusion characteristics.
[0031]
On the other hand, the conventional general-purpose polypropylene resin composition has a left side <right side in the above formula, and the MFR in the same MT is smaller than that of the resin composition of the present invention.
[0032]
The polypropylene resin composition of the present invention is characterized in that the longest relaxation time (τd) is 100 seconds or more. The above τd is obtained from stress relaxation measurement, and means the time until the deformed molecular chain returns to the random state before deformation through orientation relaxation that relaxes without changing the orientation.
[0033]
This τd is closely related to processing characteristics such as blow molding, foam molding, and thermoforming, and it is considered that the larger the τd, the better the processing characteristics. τd tends to increase due to the presence of either the high molecular weight component, the branched component, or both, but does not necessarily match the nonlinearity of the extensional viscosity. That is, τd does not define the nonlinearity of the extensional viscosity but defines the uniform spreadability at the time of extensional deformation.
[0034]
As a result of the study by the present inventors, when τd is smaller than 100 seconds, the contribution of the long relaxation time component becomes small, which hinders the machining characteristics. That is, satisfying τd ≧ 100 seconds is an indispensable condition in molding processing that requires high melt tension.
[0035]
【Example】
EXAMPLES Hereinafter, although an Example demonstrates this invention further in detail, this invention is not limited to a following example. In the examples, evaluation methods for various physical properties of the resin composition are as follows.
a. MFR: Measured according to ASTM-D1238.

Using the obtained G (t), JOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE, VOL. XL, P443-456 (1959) is used to calculate τd.

Evaluation was made from the sagging behavior when a 0.5 mm thick sheet was heated under the following conditions.
[0036]
The sheet is fixed to a 30 cm square jig and set in a heat insulating box, and then heated under the condition of a set temperature of 450 ° C. by heaters installed above and below the sample. Here, the drawdown property was evaluated from the amount of sag when the sheet was heated for 35 seconds from the start of heating.
e. Foamed state:
A mixture of a resin and a foaming agent was melt-kneaded under a condition of 70 rpm in a single-screw extruder of 65 mmφ and L / D = 30, and then extruded through a 750 mm T-die to obtain a foam sample. The closed cell ratio of the obtained sample was measured according to ASTM-D2856. The expansion ratio was calculated by the following formula.
[0037]
Foaming ratio = (density when not foamed) ÷ (density when foamed)
f. Extrusion characteristics:
Evaluation was performed from the extruder motor load and the screw tip resin temperature when extruded at 70 rpm with a single screw extruder of 65 mmφ and L / D = 30.
