Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、優れた耐水性および高温粘度安定性および低温放置安定性を有する水性エマルジョンおよび重合安定性に優れた水性エマルジョンの製造方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、ポリビニルアルコール(以下、PVAと略記することがある)はエチレン性不飽和単量体、特に酢酸ビニルに代表されるビニルエステル系単量体の乳化重合用保護コロイドとして広く用いられており、これを保護コロイドとして用いて乳化重合して得られるビニルエステル系水性エマルジョンは紙用、木工用およびプラスチック用などの各種接着剤、含浸紙用および不織製品用などの各種バインダー、混和剤、打継ぎ材、塗料、紙加工および繊維加工などの分野で広く用いられている。
このような水性エマルジョンは、PVA系重合体のけん化度を調整することにより、一般的に粘度が低く、ニュートニアン流動に近い粘性を有し、比較的耐水性の良好なものから、一般的に粘度が高く、比較的エマルジョン粘度の温度依存性が小さいものが得られることから、種々の用途に賞用されてきた。
しかしながら、該水性エマルジョンのあるものは、流動性(高速塗工性)が不足している、また耐水性が悪い、エマルジョン粘度の温度依存性が大きい、低温時のエマルジョン粘度の上昇が著しいなどの欠点を有しており、これらの性質は乳化重合に用いたPVA系重合体に依るところが大であることが知られている。
【0003】
すなわち、乳化重合用分散剤としてのPVA系重合体は、一般的には鹸化度98モル%程度のいわゆる“完全鹸化PVA”と鹸化度88モル%程度の“部分鹸化PVA”があり、前者を使用した場合、比較的耐水性および流動性(高速塗工性)は良好なものの、低温放置時のエマルジョン粘度の上昇が著しく、ゲル化し易いという欠点があり、他方、後者のPVA系重合体を使用した場合、エマルジョンの低温時の粘度上昇やゲル化性向は改善されるものの耐水性に劣る欠点を有している。このような欠点を改良するために、両者のPVA系重合体の併用、両者の中間的な鹸化度のPVA系重合体の使用等が行われているが、耐水性、エマルジョン粘度の低温放置安定性を同時に満足することはできなかった。そこで、エチレン単位を含有するビニルアルコール系重合体が提案(特開平8−81666号公報、特開平6−80709号公報、特開平10−226774号公報等)され、耐水性と低温放置安定性が大幅に改善された。しかしながら、このエマルジョンでも高温粘度安定性が十分満足すべきものではない、すなわち温度依存性があり、高温放置安定性も満足すべきものとはいえない。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、これらの従来技術の欠点を解消したものであり、高温粘度安定性の優れた(温度依存性が小さく、高温放置安定性に優れた)、しかも耐水性のより改善された、さらにまた低温放置安定性にも優れた水性エマルジョンを提供すること、および重合安定性に優れた水性エマルジョンの製造方法を提供することを目的とするものである。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
すなわち、本発明は、分子内にエチレン単位を1〜15モル%含有する、けん化度95モル%以上のビニルアルコール系重合体を分散剤とし、ビニルエステル系単量体の重合体を分散質とする水性エマルジョンであって、該エマルジョンを製膜して得た皮膜を20℃の水中に24時間浸漬した時、溶出率が1.5%以下および吸水率が30%以下を示し、かつ20℃におけるエマルジョン粘度と、60℃における粘度の比、T60℃/T20℃が2以下である水性エマルジョンである。ここで溶出率、吸水率とは後述する方法で測定される値であるが、溶出率が1.5%以下、吸水率が30%以下を示すことは耐水性に優れていることを意味している。溶出率は1.1%以下であることがより好適であり、また吸水率は27%以下であることがより好適である。また20℃におけるエマルジョン粘度T20℃と60℃における粘度T60℃の比、T60℃/T20℃とは後述する方法で測定される値であるが、 T60℃/T20℃が2以下を示すことは、エチレン含有PVAを分散剤として使用したビニルエステル系重合体エマルジョンは60℃近辺で高い粘度を示すが、本発明では60℃近辺で粘度の上昇を抑えることができること、すなわち温度依存性が小さいことを意味している。60℃近辺で粘度の上昇を抑えることができるということは、エマルジョンの重合中にエマルジョンの高温保存、運搬、使用中の粘度の上昇を抑えることができることになり、作業性、取り扱い性は格段と向上することになる。
また、本発明においては、20℃で調整し、1週間放置後のエマルジョン粘度H20℃と60℃で調整し、1週間放置後のエマルジョン粘度H60℃の比、 H60℃/H20℃が、2.5以下のエマルジョンがより好ましい態様である。ここでH60℃/H20℃とは後述する方法で測定される値であるが、 H60℃/H20℃が2.5以下を示すということは、高温放置安定性に優れていることを意味し、1週間程度60℃の高温下におかれても、粘度の上昇を抑えることができ、作業性、取り扱い性が損なわれることがない。
【0006】
本発明の水性エマルジョンは、(1)分散剤として分子内にエチレン単位を1〜15モル%含有する、けん化度95モル%以上のビニルアルコール系重合体を用い、(2)過酸化水素、過硫酸アンモニウムおよび過硫酸カリウムから選ばれる少なくとも一種の重合開始剤をビニルエステル系単量体に対してモル比で0.001〜0.01使用し、さらに(3)重合初期にビニルエステル系単量体を単量体全量の5〜20重量%仕込み、かつ上記重合開始剤を初期仕込みのビニルエステル系単量体に対してモル比で0.005〜0.025一括添加する重合操作を行うことによって得られる。
【0007】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の水性エマルジョンの分散剤として用いられる分子内にエチレン単位を1〜15モル%含有し、けん化度95モル%以上のPVA系重合体は、ビニルエステルとエチレンとの共重合体をけん化することにより得ることができる。
【0008】
ここで、ビニルエステルとしては、蟻酸ビニル、酢酸ビニル、プロピオン酸ビニル、ピバリン酸ビニルなどが挙げられるが、酢酸ビニルが経済的にみて好ましい。
【0009】
エチレン単位の含有量としては、1〜15モル%であることが必要であり、好ましくは3〜13%、さらに好ましくは5〜12%である。エチレン単位の含有量が1モル%未満の場合には、後述する比較例1からも明らかなように、上述の耐水性(溶出率と吸水率)と高温粘度安定性を同時に満足する水性エマルジョンが得られないし、また低温放置安定性も悪い。また、15モル%を越える場合には、水溶性が低下し、安定な水性エマルジョンが得られない懸念が生じる。
【0010】
また、該分散剤は本発明の目的を損なわない範囲で共重合可能なエチレン性不飽和単量体を共重合したものでも良い。このようなエチレン性不飽和単量体としては、例えば、アクリル酸、メタクリル酸、フマル酸、(無水)マレイン酸、イタコン酸、アクリロニトリル、メタクリロニトリル、アクリルアミド、メタクリルアミド、トリメチル−(3−アクリルアミド−3−ジメチルプロピル)−アンモニウムクロリド、アクリルアミド−2−メチルプロパンスルホン酸およびそのナトリウム塩、エチルビニルエーテル、ブチルビニルエーテル、N−ビニルピロリドン、塩化ビニル、臭化ビニル、フッ化ビニル、塩化ビニリデン、フッ化ビニリデン、テトラフルオロエチレン、ビニルスルホン酸ナトリウム、アリルスルホン酸ナトリウムなどが挙げられる。
また、チオール酢酸、メルカプトプロピオン酸などのチオール化合物の存在下で、酢酸ビニルなどのビニルエステル系単量体を、エチレンと共重合し、それをけん化することによって得られる末端にメルカプト基またはカルボキシル基を有する変性物も用いることができる。
【0011】
本発明の水性エマルジョンの分散剤として用いるエチレン変性PVA系重合体のけん化度は、95モル%以上であることが必要であり、より好ましくは、96モル%以上、さらに好ましくは97モル%以上である。けん化度が95モル%未満の場合には、耐水性に優れた水性エマルジョンが得られない。本発明の目的とする水性エマルジョンを得るためには、該PVA系重合体の重合度(粘度平均重合度)は、100〜3000が好ましく、300〜3000がより好ましい。
【0012】
本発明の水性エマルジョンにおける分散質を構成するビニルエステル系単量体としては、蟻酸ビニル、酢酸ビニル、プロピオン酸ビニル、ピバリン酸ビニルなどが挙げられるが、酢酸ビニルが経済的にみて好ましい。
【0013】
本発明では、単量体として、ビニルエステル系単量体が主に用いられるが、ビニルエステル系単量体とエチレンを併用することも好適な態様である。これらの単量体を乳化重合することにより、ビニルエステル系重合体またはビニルエステル−エチレン系共重合体を分散質とする水性エマルジョンが得られる。
【0014】
また、本発明の目的を損なわない範囲で、エチレン性不飽和単量体およびジエン系単量体を共重合しても構わない。このような単量体としては、プロピレン、イソブチレンなどのオレフィン、塩化ビニル、フッ化ビニル、ビニリデンクロリド、ビニリデンフルオリドなどのハロゲン化オレフィン、アクリル酸、アクリル酸メチル、アクリル酸エチル、アクリル酸ブチル、アクリル酸2−エチルヘキシル、アクリル酸ドデシル、アクリル酸2−ヒドロキシエチルなどのアクリル酸およびそのエステル、メタクリル酸、メタクリル酸メチル、メタクリル酸エチル、メタクリル酸ブチル、メタクリル酸2−エチルヘキシル、メタクリル酸ドデシル、メタクリル酸2−ヒドロキシエチルなどのメタクリル酸およびそのエステル、アクリル酸ジメチルアミノエチル、メタクリル酸ジメチルアミノエチルおよびこれらの四級化物、さらには、アクリルアミド、メタクリルアミド、N−メチロールアクリルアミド、N,N−ジメチルアクリルアミド、アクリルアミド−2−メチルプロパンスルホン酸およびそのナトリウム塩などのアクリルアミド系単量体、スチレン、α−メチルスチレン、p−スチレンスルホン酸およびナトリウム、カリウム塩などのスチレン系単量体、その他N−ビニルピロリドンなど、また、ブタジエン、イソプレン、クロロプレンなどのジエン系単量体が挙げられる。
【0015】
本発明の水性エマルジョンは、前述したとおりビニルエステル系単量体を乳化重合するに際し、(1)分散剤として分子内にエチレン単位を1〜15モル%含有する、けん化度95モル%以上のビニルアルコール系重合体を用い、(2)過酸化水素、過硫酸アンモニウムおよび過硫酸カリウムから選ばれる少なくとも一種の重合開始剤をビニルエステル系単量体に対してモル比で0.001〜0.01使用し、さらに(3)重合初期にビニルエステル系単量体を単量体全量の5〜20重量%仕込み、かつ上記重合開始剤を初期仕込みのビニルエステル系単量体に対してモル比で0.005〜0.025一括添加する重合操作を行うことにより得られる。
【0016】
本発明の水性エマルジョンを製造するにあたっては、過酸化水素、過硫酸アンモニウムおよび過硫酸カリウムから選ばれる少なくとも一種の重合開始剤を用いることは重要であり、この中でも、特に過酸化水素が好ましい。また、本発明においては、重合開始剤を使用する全ビニルエステル系単量体に対してモル比で0.001〜0.01使用して乳化重合することも極めて重要であり、好ましくは0.002〜0.007であり、さらに好ましくは0.0025〜0.005である。理由は明確ではないが、上記量の開始剤を用いることで、耐水性のより改善された、しかも高温粘度安定性に優れ、さらに低温放置安定性にも優れた水性エマルジョンが得られる。特開平8−81666号公報の実施例1に記載されているように、重合開始剤が0.001未満の場合、本発明の目的とする水性エマルジョンが得られない。このことは後述する比較例5から明らかである。また、重合開始剤が0.01を越えると、本発明の目的とする耐水性の優れた、しかも高温粘度安定性に優れたエマルジョンが得られない。このことは後述する比較例3から明らかである。
【0017】
また、前記重合開始剤は還元剤と併用し、レドックス系で用いられる場合もある。その場合、通常、過酸化水素は酒石酸、L−アスコルビン酸、ロンガリットなどとともに用いられる。また、過硫酸アンモニウム、過硫酸カリウムは亜硫酸水素ナトリウム、炭酸水素ナトリウムなどとともに用いられる。還元剤の使用量も特に限定されないが、通常、重合開始剤に対して、0.05〜3当量用い、好ましくは0.1〜2当量、より好ましくは0.3〜1.5当量用いる。
【0018】
前記重合開始剤の添加方法としては重合開始初期に重合開始剤を一括添加する方法を用いる。すなわち、ビニルエステル系単量体を、単量体全量の5〜20%を重合初期に仕込み、重合開始剤を初期仕込みの単量体に対してモル比で0.005〜0.025一括添加することが必要となり、好ましくは0.008〜0.020であり、より好ましくは0.01〜0.018である。
特開平8−81666号の実施例1に記載されているように、重合開始剤の初期仕込量が0.005未満の場合、本発明の目的とする水性エマルジョンが得られない。このことは後述する比較例5から明らかである。
また特開平6−80709号の実施例1に記載されている様に重合開始剤の初期仕込量が0.025をこえる場合も本発明の目的とする耐水性および高温粘度安定性に優れたエマルジョンは得られない。このことは後述する比較例6から明らかである。
初期重合は重合開始剤を上記したとおり所定の量一括添加することにより上記したとおりの優れた効果が奏せられるが、さらに重合安定性も良好となり、重合後のろ過残量も少なくなる。
初期重合は、分散剤の水溶液に単量体、重合開始剤を加え、重合温度50〜70℃、好適には55〜65℃、重合時間15〜60分、好適には20〜50分の条件下で行われる。初期重合において単量体は一括添加することが好適である。
【0019】
分散剤として使用するエチレン変性PVA系重合体の使用量については特に制限はないが、単量体100重量部に対して好ましくは3〜20重量部、より好ましくは5〜15重量部の範囲である。該使用量が3重量部未満および20重量部をこえる場合には、重合安定性が低下したり、放置安定性が低下することがある。
【0020】
初期重合はビニルエステルの残存濃度(生成ポリマーに対する重量%)が10%以下、好適には5%以下、さらに好適には1%以下になった時点で終了する。初期重合後は、後期重合に入る。後期重合では重合開始剤は一括添加が好適であるが、連続添加あるいは断続添加でも良い。単量体は連続添加が好適であるが、一括添加(ショット添加)でも良い。また後期重合では、重合温度は初期重合温度よりも5〜30℃高くすることが好適であり、55〜100℃、好適には60〜95℃、さらに好適には70〜90℃の範囲内で行われる。
【0021】
重合圧力は、初期重合、後期重合とも常圧で良いが、必要に応じ加圧する必要がある。特にビニルエステルと他の単量体、例えばエチレンとの共重合体エマルジョンを製造する場合は、圧力下で行うことが必要である。
【0022】
上記したとおりの方法を採用することにより、特に分散剤としてエチレン単位を1〜15モル%含有する、けん化度95モル%以上の変性PVAを使用すること、重合開始剤をビニルエステル系単量体に対してモル比で0.001〜0.01使用し、さらに重合初期にビニルエステル系単量体を単量体全量の5〜20重量%仕込み、かつ上記重合開始剤を初期仕込みの単量体に対してモル比で0.005〜0.025一括添加するすることにより、重合安定性が優れ、さらに耐水性の一段と改善された、しかも高温粘度安定性に優れた(温度依存性が小さく、高温放置安定性に優れた)水性エマルジョンが得られること、さらに得られた水性エマルジョンは低温放置安定性にも優れていることは驚くべきことであり、従来の特開平8−81666号、特開平6−80709号、特開平10−226774号に記載された発明からはとうてい予測できないことである。特に本発明において重合開始剤量を特定量に規定したこと、重合初期において重合開始剤を一括添加するとともにその使用量を規定したことにより、本発明の目的とする優れた水性エマルジョンが得られるようになったことは驚くべきことであり、その工業的意味は大きい。
このようにして得られた本発明の水性エマルジョンは耐水性がより改善されているため、耐水性の要求される各種用途に好適に使用され、また本発明の水性エマルジョンは、温度依存性が小さく、特に60℃に温度を上げたときエチレン変性PVAを分散安定剤とするビニルエステル系重合体エマルジョンでは通常粘度が大きく上昇するが、本発明の水性エマルジョンはその上昇が少ないため、エマルジョン重合時の粘度上昇を防ぐことができるし、60℃前後の高温下での保存、運搬、使用においても粘度上昇を防ぐことができるので、作業性、取り扱い性は極めて優れている。
【0023】
本発明で得られる水性エマルジョンは、上記の方法で得られる水性エマルジョンをそのまま用いることができるが、必要があれば、本発明の効果を損なわない範囲で、従来公知の各種エマルジョンを添加して用いることができる。
なお、本発明の水性エマルジョンにおける分散剤としては、前述のけん化度95モル%以上のPVA系重合体あるいはけん化度95モル%以上のエチレン変性PVA系重合体が用いられるが、必要に応じて、従来公知のアニオン性、ノニオン性あるいはカチオン性の界面活性剤や、PVA系重合体、ヒドロキシエチルセルロースなどを併用することもできる。
【0024】
本発明の水性エマルジョンは、上記のような優れた特性を有していることから、紙管、製袋、合紙、段ボール用等の紙、パルプなどの紙加工用接着剤、フラッシュパネル、集成材、ツキ板、合板加工用、合板二次加工用(練り合わせ)、一般木工等の木工用接着剤および各種プラスチック用の接着剤、含浸紙用、不織製品用のバインダー、混和剤、打継ぎ材、塗料、紙加工および繊維加工などの分野で好適に用いられる。
【0025】
【実施例】
次に、実施例および比較例により本発明をさらに詳細に説明する。なお、以下の実施例および比較例において「部」および「%」は、特に断らない限り重量基準を意味する。また、得られたエマルジョンの耐水性、放置安定性を、下記の要領で評価した。
【0026】
(エマルジョンの評価)
(1)皮膜の耐水性
得られた水性エマルジョンを20℃、65%RHの条件下に、PET上に流延し、7日間乾燥させて500μmの乾燥皮膜を得た。この皮膜を直径2.5cmに打ち抜き、それを試料として20℃水に24時間浸漬した場合の、皮膜の吸水率、溶出率を求めた。
溶出率(%):{1−(浸漬後の皮膜絶乾重量/浸漬前の皮膜絶乾重量)}×100
吸水率(%):{(浸漬後の皮膜吸水重量/浸漬前の皮膜絶乾重量)−1}×100
*浸漬前の皮膜絶乾重量;浸漬前の皮膜重量(含水)−{浸漬前の皮膜重量(含水)× 皮膜含水率(%)/100}
*皮膜含水率;皮膜(20℃水に浸漬するサンプルとは別のサンプル)を、105℃、4時間で絶乾し、皮膜の含水率をあらかじめもとめる。
*浸漬後の皮膜絶乾重量;浸漬後の皮膜を105℃、4時間で絶乾した重量。
浸漬後の皮膜重量;浸漬後の皮膜を水から引き上げた後、皮膜についた水をガーゼで拭き取り秤量。
(2)粘度安定性
低温放置安定性:5℃90日間放置後の粘度変化を測定
温度依存性:T60℃/T20℃(20℃、60℃に調整後測定)
高温放置安定性: H60℃/H20℃(20℃、60℃に調整し、1週間放置後粘度測定) ( H20℃、H60℃はそれぞれ20℃、60℃に調整し、1週間放置後の粘度)
粘度はB型粘度計(20rpm)を用いて測定。
(3)重合安定性
重合後、60メッシュ金網でろ過し、ろ過残量(%)(対エマルジョン)を測定。ろ過残量が少ないほど重合安定性が優れていることを示す。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an aqueous emulsion having excellent water resistance, high-temperature viscosity stability and low-temperature storage stability, and a method for producing an aqueous emulsion excellent in polymerization stability.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, polyvinyl alcohol (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as PVA) has been widely used as a protective colloid for emulsion polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, particularly vinyl ester monomers represented by vinyl acetate, Vinyl ester aqueous emulsions obtained by emulsion polymerization using this as a protective colloid are various adhesives for paper, woodworking and plastics, various binders, admixtures and punches for impregnated paper and non-woven products. Widely used in fields such as seams, paints, paper processing and textile processing.
Such an aqueous emulsion generally has a low viscosity by adjusting the degree of saponification of the PVA polymer, has a viscosity close to Newtonian flow, and has a relatively good water resistance. Since it has a high viscosity and relatively low temperature dependence of emulsion viscosity, it has been awarded for various uses.
However, some of the aqueous emulsions have insufficient fluidity (high-speed coating properties), poor water resistance, large temperature dependence of emulsion viscosity, and significant increase in emulsion viscosity at low temperatures. It is known that these properties largely depend on the PVA polymer used for emulsion polymerization.
[0003]
That is, PVA polymers as a dispersant for emulsion polymerization generally include so-called “fully saponified PVA” having a saponification degree of about 98 mol% and “partially saponified PVA” having a saponification degree of about 88 mol%. When used, the water resistance and fluidity (high-speed coating property) are relatively good, but the emulsion viscosity when standing at low temperature is remarkably increased and has the disadvantages of being easily gelled. On the other hand, the latter PVA polymer is used. When used, the emulsion has a disadvantage that it is inferior in water resistance, although the viscosity increase and gelation tendency at low temperatures are improved. In order to improve such drawbacks, the combined use of both PVA polymers and the use of PVA polymers having an intermediate saponification degree between the two have been carried out. I was not able to satisfy sex at the same time. Therefore, vinyl alcohol polymers containing ethylene units have been proposed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 8-81666, 6-80709, 10-226774, etc.), and have water resistance and low-temperature storage stability. Greatly improved. However, even in this emulsion, the high temperature viscosity stability is not satisfactory, that is, it has temperature dependence, and the high temperature storage stability is not satisfactory.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention eliminates these disadvantages of the prior art, has excellent high-temperature viscosity stability (small temperature dependency, excellent high-temperature storage stability), and further improved water resistance. It is another object of the present invention to provide an aqueous emulsion excellent in low-temperature storage stability and to provide a method for producing an aqueous emulsion excellent in polymerization stability.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
That is, the present invention uses a vinyl alcohol polymer having a saponification degree of 95 mol% or more containing 1 to 15 mol% of ethylene units in the molecule as a dispersant, and a vinyl ester monomer polymer as a dispersoid. When the film obtained by film-forming the emulsion is immersed in water at 20 ° C. for 24 hours, the dissolution rate is 1.5% or less and the water absorption is 30% or less, and 20 ° C. Ratio of emulsion viscosity at 60 ° C. to viscosity at 60 ° C., T 60 ° C / T 20 ° C Is an aqueous emulsion having 2 or less. Here, the elution rate and the water absorption rate are values measured by the method described later, but an elution rate of 1.5% or less and a water absorption rate of 30% or less means excellent water resistance. ing. The elution rate is more preferably 1.1% or less, and the water absorption rate is more preferably 27% or less. Emulsion viscosity T at 20 ° C 20 ° C And viscosity T at 60 ° C 60 ° C Ratio of T 60 ° C / T 20 ° C Is a value measured by the method described later. 60 ° C / T 20 ° C The vinyl ester polymer emulsion using ethylene-containing PVA as a dispersant shows a high viscosity around 60 ° C., but in the present invention, it is possible to suppress an increase in viscosity around 60 ° C. That is, the temperature dependency is small. The fact that the increase in viscosity can be suppressed at around 60 ° C. means that the increase in viscosity during high temperature storage, transportation and use of the emulsion can be suppressed during the polymerization of the emulsion. Will improve.
In the present invention, the emulsion viscosity H after adjustment at 20 ° C. and standing for 1 week 20 ° C And emulsion viscosity H after adjustment at 60 ° C for 1 week 60 ° C Ratio of H 60 ° C / H 20 ° C However, an emulsion of 2.5 or less is a more preferable embodiment. Where H 60 ° C / H 20 ° C Is a value measured by the method described later. 60 ° C / H 20 ° C Of 2.5 or less means that it is excellent in high-temperature storage stability, and even if it is kept at a high temperature of about 60 ° C. for about one week, an increase in viscosity can be suppressed. The handleability is not impaired.
[0006]
The aqueous emulsion of the present invention uses (1) a vinyl alcohol polymer having a saponification degree of 95 mol% or more, containing 1 to 15 mol% of ethylene units in the molecule as a dispersant. At least one polymerization initiator selected from ammonium sulfate and potassium persulfate is used in a molar ratio of 0.001 to 0.01 with respect to the vinyl ester monomer, and (3) a vinyl ester monomer at the initial stage of polymerization. By performing a polymerization operation in which 5 to 20% by weight of the total amount of monomers is added, and the polymerization initiator is collectively added in a molar ratio of 0.005 to 0.025 with respect to the vinyl ester monomer initially charged. can get.
[0007]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A PVA polymer containing 1 to 15 mol% of ethylene units in the molecule used as a dispersant for the aqueous emulsion of the present invention and having a saponification degree of 95 mol% or more saponifies a copolymer of vinyl ester and ethylene. Can be obtained.
[0008]
Here, examples of the vinyl ester include vinyl formate, vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, and vinyl pivalate. Vinyl acetate is preferable from the economical viewpoint.
[0009]
The ethylene unit content is required to be 1 to 15 mol%, preferably 3 to 13%, and more preferably 5 to 12%. When the ethylene unit content is less than 1 mol%, as is apparent from Comparative Example 1 described later, an aqueous emulsion satisfying the above water resistance (elution rate and water absorption rate) and high-temperature viscosity stability at the same time is obtained. It cannot be obtained, and the low temperature storage stability is poor. On the other hand, if it exceeds 15 mol%, the water solubility is lowered, and there is a concern that a stable aqueous emulsion cannot be obtained.
[0010]
The dispersant may be a copolymer of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer that can be copolymerized within a range that does not impair the object of the present invention. Examples of such ethylenically unsaturated monomers include acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, fumaric acid, (anhydrous) maleic acid, itaconic acid, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, acrylamide, methacrylamide, trimethyl- (3-acrylamide). -3-dimethylpropyl) -ammonium chloride, acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid and its sodium salt, ethyl vinyl ether, butyl vinyl ether, N-vinyl pyrrolidone, vinyl chloride, vinyl bromide, vinyl fluoride, vinylidene chloride, fluoride Examples include vinylidene, tetrafluoroethylene, sodium vinyl sulfonate, and sodium allyl sulfonate.
In addition, a vinyl ester monomer such as vinyl acetate is copolymerized with ethylene in the presence of a thiol compound such as thiolacetic acid or mercaptopropionic acid, and a mercapto group or carboxyl group is obtained at the terminal obtained by saponifying it. A modified product having can also be used.
[0011]
The saponification degree of the ethylene-modified PVA polymer used as a dispersant for the aqueous emulsion of the present invention needs to be 95 mol% or more, more preferably 96 mol% or more, and still more preferably 97 mol% or more. is there. When the saponification degree is less than 95 mol%, an aqueous emulsion excellent in water resistance cannot be obtained. In order to obtain the target aqueous emulsion of the present invention, the polymerization degree (viscosity average polymerization degree) of the PVA polymer is preferably 100 to 3000, and more preferably 300 to 3000.
[0012]
Examples of the vinyl ester monomer constituting the dispersoid in the aqueous emulsion of the present invention include vinyl formate, vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, vinyl pivalate, etc., but vinyl acetate is preferred from the economical viewpoint.
[0013]
In the present invention, a vinyl ester monomer is mainly used as the monomer, but it is also a preferred embodiment to use a vinyl ester monomer in combination with ethylene. By emulsion polymerization of these monomers, an aqueous emulsion having a vinyl ester polymer or a vinyl ester-ethylene copolymer as a dispersoid can be obtained.
[0014]
Moreover, you may copolymerize an ethylenically unsaturated monomer and a diene monomer in the range which does not impair the objective of this invention. Examples of such monomers include olefins such as propylene and isobutylene, halogenated olefins such as vinyl chloride, vinyl fluoride, vinylidene chloride, and vinylidene fluoride, acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, Acrylic acid and its esters such as 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, dodecyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, methacrylic acid, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, dodecyl methacrylate, methacrylic acid Methacrylic acid and its esters such as 2-hydroxyethyl acid, dimethylaminoethyl acrylate, dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate and quaternized products thereof, acrylamide, methacrylic acid Acrylamide monomers such as amide, N-methylolacrylamide, N, N-dimethylacrylamide, acrylamide-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid and its sodium salt, styrene, α-methylstyrene, p-styrenesulfonic acid and sodium, potassium Examples thereof include styrene monomers such as salts, other N-vinylpyrrolidone, and diene monomers such as butadiene, isoprene and chloroprene.
[0015]
When the aqueous emulsion of the present invention emulsion-polymerizes a vinyl ester monomer as described above, (1) vinyl having 1 to 15 mol% of ethylene units in the molecule as a dispersant and having a saponification degree of 95 mol% or more. Using an alcohol polymer, (2) using at least one polymerization initiator selected from hydrogen peroxide, ammonium persulfate and potassium persulfate in a molar ratio of 0.001 to 0.01 with respect to the vinyl ester monomer. (3) The vinyl ester monomer is charged in an amount of 5 to 20% by weight of the total amount of monomers at the initial stage of polymerization, and the polymerization initiator is added in a molar ratio of 0 to the vinyl ester monomer charged initially. 0.005 to 0.025 can be obtained by performing a polymerization operation for batch addition.
[0016]
In producing the aqueous emulsion of the present invention, it is important to use at least one polymerization initiator selected from hydrogen peroxide, ammonium persulfate and potassium persulfate, and among these, hydrogen peroxide is particularly preferred. In the present invention, it is also extremely important to carry out emulsion polymerization by using 0.001 to 0.01 molar ratio with respect to all vinyl ester monomers using a polymerization initiator. It is 002-0.007, More preferably, it is 0.0025-0.005. Although the reason is not clear, by using the above-mentioned amount of the initiator, an aqueous emulsion having improved water resistance, excellent high-temperature viscosity stability, and excellent low-temperature storage stability can be obtained. As described in Example 1 of JP-A-8-81666, when the polymerization initiator is less than 0.001, the target aqueous emulsion of the present invention cannot be obtained. This is clear from Comparative Example 5 described later. On the other hand, when the polymerization initiator exceeds 0.01, an emulsion excellent in water resistance and excellent in high-temperature viscosity stability cannot be obtained. This is clear from Comparative Example 3 described later.
[0017]
Further, the polymerization initiator may be used in combination with a reducing agent and used in a redox system. In that case, hydrogen peroxide is usually used together with tartaric acid, L-ascorbic acid, Rongalite and the like. Ammonium persulfate and potassium persulfate are used together with sodium hydrogen sulfite, sodium hydrogen carbonate and the like. The amount of the reducing agent used is not particularly limited, but is usually 0.05 to 3 equivalents, preferably 0.1 to 2 equivalents, more preferably 0.3 to 1.5 equivalents, relative to the polymerization initiator.
[0018]
As a method for adding the polymerization initiator, a method of collectively adding a polymerization initiator at the beginning of polymerization is used. That is, 5 to 20% of the total amount of the vinyl ester monomer is charged at the initial stage of polymerization, and a polymerization initiator is added at a molar ratio of 0.005 to 0.025 at a molar ratio with respect to the initial charged monomer. It is necessary to do, Preferably it is 0.008-0.020, More preferably, it is 0.01-0.018.
As described in Example 1 of JP-A-8-81666, when the initial charge amount of the polymerization initiator is less than 0.005, the aqueous emulsion targeted by the present invention cannot be obtained. This is clear from Comparative Example 5 described later.
Further, as described in Example 1 of JP-A-6-80709, an emulsion excellent in water resistance and high-temperature viscosity stability, which is an object of the present invention, even when the initial charge amount of the polymerization initiator exceeds 0.025. Cannot be obtained. This is clear from Comparative Example 6 described later.
In the initial polymerization, by adding a predetermined amount of the polymerization initiator as described above, the excellent effects as described above can be obtained, but the polymerization stability is also improved and the remaining amount of filtration after polymerization is reduced.
In the initial polymerization, a monomer and a polymerization initiator are added to an aqueous solution of a dispersant, and the polymerization temperature is 50 to 70 ° C., preferably 55 to 65 ° C., the polymerization time is 15 to 60 minutes, preferably 20 to 50 minutes. Done under. In the initial polymerization, it is preferable to add the monomers all at once.
[0019]
Although there is no restriction | limiting in particular about the usage-amount of the ethylene modified PVA type polymer used as a dispersing agent, Preferably it is 3-20 weight part with respect to 100 weight part of monomers, More preferably, in the range of 5-15 weight part. is there. When the amount used is less than 3 parts by weight or more than 20 parts by weight, the polymerization stability may be lowered or the standing stability may be lowered.
[0020]
The initial polymerization is terminated when the residual concentration of vinyl ester (% by weight relative to the produced polymer) is 10% or less, preferably 5% or less, more preferably 1% or less. After the initial polymerization, the latter polymerization is started. In the latter polymerization, the polymerization initiator is preferably added all at once, but may be added continuously or intermittently. The monomer is preferably added continuously, but may be added all at once (shot addition). In the late polymerization, the polymerization temperature is preferably 5 to 30 ° C. higher than the initial polymerization temperature, 55 to 100 ° C., preferably 60 to 95 ° C., more preferably 70 to 90 ° C. Done.
[0021]
The polymerization pressure may be normal pressure for both initial polymerization and late polymerization, but it is necessary to increase the pressure as necessary. In particular, when producing a copolymer emulsion of a vinyl ester and another monomer such as ethylene, it is necessary to carry out under pressure.
[0022]
By adopting the method as described above, in particular, a modified PVA containing 1 to 15 mol% of ethylene units as a dispersant and having a saponification degree of 95 mol% or more is used, and the polymerization initiator is a vinyl ester monomer. Is used in a molar ratio of 0.001 to 0.01, and in the initial stage of polymerization, a vinyl ester monomer is charged in an amount of 5 to 20% by weight of the total amount of the monomer, and the polymerization initiator is a single amount of the initial charge. By adding 0.005 to 0.025 at a molar ratio to the body, the polymerization stability is excellent, the water resistance is further improved, and the high-temperature viscosity stability is excellent (the temperature dependence is small). It is surprising that an aqueous emulsion excellent in high-temperature storage stability is obtained, and that the obtained aqueous emulsion is also excellent in low-temperature storage stability. No. 6, JP-A-6-80709, it can not be hardly predicted from the invention described in JP-A-10-226774. In particular, in the present invention, the amount of the polymerization initiator is defined as a specific amount, and the polymerization initiator is collectively added at the initial stage of polymerization and the amount of the polymerization initiator is defined, so that an excellent aqueous emulsion intended by the present invention can be obtained. It is surprising that the industrial meaning is great.
Since the water-based emulsion of the present invention thus obtained has improved water resistance, it is suitably used for various applications requiring water resistance, and the water-based emulsion of the present invention has low temperature dependence. In particular, when the temperature is raised to 60 ° C., the viscosity of a vinyl ester polymer emulsion using ethylene-modified PVA as a dispersion stabilizer usually increases greatly. An increase in viscosity can be prevented, and an increase in viscosity can be prevented even during storage, transportation, and use at a high temperature of about 60 ° C., so that workability and handling are extremely excellent.
[0023]
As the aqueous emulsion obtained in the present invention, the aqueous emulsion obtained by the above method can be used as it is, but if necessary, various conventionally known emulsions are added and used within a range not impairing the effects of the present invention. be able to.
In addition, as the dispersant in the aqueous emulsion of the present invention, the PVA polymer having a saponification degree of 95 mol% or more or the ethylene-modified PVA polymer having a saponification degree of 95 mol% or more is used. Conventionally known anionic, nonionic or cationic surfactants, PVA polymers, hydroxyethyl cellulose, and the like can be used in combination.
[0024]
Since the aqueous emulsion of the present invention has the excellent properties as described above, it is a paper tube, bag making, interleaf, paper for corrugated board, paper processing adhesive such as pulp, flash panel, assembly. Wood, wood board, plywood processing, plywood secondary processing (kneading), woodworking adhesives for general woodworking and various plastics, impregnating paper, binders for non-woven products, admixtures, splicing It is suitably used in fields such as materials, paints, paper processing and fiber processing.

Next, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples and comparative examples. In the following examples and comparative examples, “parts” and “%” mean weight basis unless otherwise specified. Further, the water resistance and storage stability of the obtained emulsion were evaluated in the following manner.
[0026]
(Emulsion evaluation)
(1) Water resistance of the film
The obtained aqueous emulsion was cast on PET under the conditions of 20 ° C. and 65% RH and dried for 7 days to obtain a dry film of 500 μm. This film was punched to a diameter of 2.5 cm, and the water absorption rate and elution rate of the film when the sample was immersed in water at 20 ° C. for 24 hours were determined.
Elution rate (%): {1- (Absolute dry weight after immersion / Absolute dry weight before immersion)} × 100
Water absorption rate (%): {(film water absorption weight after immersion / film absolute dry weight before immersion) -1} × 100
* Absolute dry weight of film before immersion; film weight before immersion (water content)-{film weight before immersion (water content) x film moisture content (%) / 100}
* Moisture content of film: The film (a sample different from the sample immersed in water at 20 ° C.) is completely dried at 105 ° C. for 4 hours to obtain the moisture content of the film in advance.
* Absolute dry weight after dipping; Weight obtained by dipping the dipped film at 105 ° C. for 4 hours.
Film weight after immersion: After lifting the film after immersion from the water, wipe the water on the film with gauze and weigh.
(2) Viscosity stability
Low temperature storage stability: 5 ° C , Measure viscosity change after 90 days
Temperature dependence: T 60 ° C / T 20 ° C (Measurement after adjustment to 20 ° C and 60 ° C)
High temperature storage stability: H 60 ° C / H 20 ° C (Adjusted to 20 ° C and 60 ° C, measured for viscosity after standing for 1 week) 20 ° C , H 60 ° C Are adjusted to 20 ° C and 60 ° C, respectively, and the viscosity after standing for 1 week)
Viscosity was measured using a B-type viscometer (20 rpm).
(3) Polymerization stability
After polymerization, the mixture was filtered through a 60 mesh wire net and the remaining amount of filtration (%) (vs. emulsion) was measured. The smaller the remaining amount of filtration, the better the polymerization stability.
