本発明は、熱可塑性樹脂と無機質充填材とが配合された成形材料の射出成形品表面にめっき処理を施してなる複合熱可塑性樹脂めっき成形品の製造方法に係り、特に、従来にない卓越した外観を有し、めっき膜の密着性及び耐サーマルサイクル性にも優れた複合熱可塑性樹脂めっき成形品の製造方法に関する。
本発明の複合熱可塑性樹脂めっき成形品は、高外観、高品質を示し、電気、電子部品、携帯電話、家電機器、その他自動車内外装品等にも好適である。
The present invention relates to a method for producing a composite thermoplastic resin plated molded article obtained by performing plating on the surface of an injection molded article of a molding material in which a thermoplastic resin and an inorganic filler are blended. The present invention relates to a method for producing a composite thermoplastic resin plated molded article having an appearance and excellent plating film adhesion and thermal cycle resistance.
The composite thermoplastic resin plating molded article of the present invention exhibits high appearance and high quality, and is suitable for electricity, electronic parts, mobile phones, home appliances, and other automobile interior and exterior products.

近年、OA分野におけるパソコン、テレビ、オーディオ機器を始め、携帯電話などのハウジング、又は車両分野におけるラジエターグリル等は、デザイン上、更には軽量化のために薄肉化が進んだ結果、その材料には良好な成形性と高い剛性が求められるようになってきている。また、高級感を高めるために、これらを構成する樹脂成形品にめっき処理を施すことにより金属調の外観を付与することが求められることも多くあり、このためにめっき処理に適した樹脂成形品が求められている。即ち、通常のめっき処理により実用上十分なめっき外観と、めっき膜密着強度及び耐サーマルサイクル性を示す樹脂成形品が求められている。   In recent years, housings such as personal computers, televisions, and audio equipment in the OA field, mobile phone housings, and radiator grills in the vehicle field have become thinner as a result of design and weight reduction. Good moldability and high rigidity have been demanded. In addition, in order to enhance the sense of quality, it is often required to give a metallic appearance by performing a plating treatment on the resin moldings constituting them, and for this reason, a resin molded product suitable for the plating treatment. Is required. That is, there is a demand for a resin molded product that exhibits a practically sufficient plating appearance, plating film adhesion strength, and thermal cycle resistance by ordinary plating treatment.

樹脂成形品のめっき適応性が悪く、めっき不良となると、不良品から樹脂を回収するためには、めっき膜の剥離などに多大なエネルギーを必要とするため、再利用不可能な産業廃棄物となることが多い。このため、めっき不良を低減し、産業廃棄物の削減、更にはエネルギーの無駄を無くすためにも、めっき適応性に優れた樹脂成形品の開発が望まれる。   If the resin adaptability of the resin molded product is poor and the plating is defective, it takes a lot of energy to remove the plating film to recover the resin from the defective product. Often becomes. For this reason, in order to reduce plating defects, reduce industrial waste, and eliminate energy waste, it is desired to develop a resin molded product excellent in plating adaptability.

従来、樹脂成形品に剛性を付与する方法としては、成形原料の樹脂組成物にガラス繊維等の無機充填剤を添加して補強する手法があるが、この方法では、得られる成形品の表面に繊維状充填剤が露出するために、表面の平滑性が悪いという問題がある。しかも、従来の樹脂成形品に通常のめっき処理を施しても、実用上満足なめっき外観とめっき膜の密着強度及び耐サーマルサイクル性を示すめっき成形品は得られていない。   Conventionally, as a method of imparting rigidity to a resin molded product, there is a method of adding an inorganic filler such as glass fiber to a resin composition as a molding raw material to reinforce, but in this method, the surface of the obtained molded product is added. Since the fibrous filler is exposed, there is a problem that the surface smoothness is poor. Moreover, even if a conventional resin molded product is subjected to a normal plating treatment, a plated molded product exhibiting a practically satisfactory plating appearance, adhesion strength of the plating film and thermal cycle resistance has not been obtained.

成形品表面の繊維状充填材の露出を回避する方法として、特許文献1には射出成形時の金型温度を樹脂の軟化点に応じて制御する方法が提案されている。また、特許文献2には、金型を交互に加熱冷却することができる合成樹脂成形用金型が提案され、この特許文献2にはこのような金型により、金型温度を交互に加熱冷却して成形することにより、ガラス繊維等の露出を防止できると記載されている。   As a method for avoiding the exposure of the fibrous filler on the surface of the molded product, Patent Document 1 proposes a method of controlling the mold temperature during injection molding in accordance with the softening point of the resin. Further, Patent Document 2 proposes a mold for synthetic resin molding capable of alternately heating and cooling the mold, and Patent Document 2 discloses that the mold temperature is alternately heated and cooled by such a mold. It is described that the exposure of glass fibers or the like can be prevented by molding the glass fiber.

しかしながら、上記特許文献1,2のいずれにも、得られた樹脂成形品にめっき処理を施すことについては検討されておらず、従来において、剛性とめっき適応性、即ち、通常のめっき処理により実用上十分なめっき外観と、めっき膜密着強度及び耐サーマルサイクル性を示す熱可塑性樹脂成形品は提供されていないのが現状である。
特開2004−130528号公報 特開2001−18229号公報
However, neither of the above-mentioned Patent Documents 1 and 2 has studied the plating treatment of the obtained resin molded product. Conventionally, it has been practically applied by rigidity and plating adaptability, that is, normal plating treatment. The present condition is that the thermoplastic resin molded product which shows the said sufficient plating external appearance, plating film adhesion strength, and thermal cycle resistance is not provided.

[ヒートサイクル成形]
次に、上述のような複合熱可塑性樹脂組成物を成形材料として用い、ヒートサイクル成形法により射出成形して射出成形品を得る方法について説明する。
[Heat cycle molding]
Next, a method for obtaining an injection-molded product by injection molding by a heat cycle molding method using the composite thermoplastic resin composition as described above as a molding material will be described.

本発明においては、金型のキャビティ表面が交互に加熱冷却される射出成形金型を用いて、金型のキャビティ表面温度を繰り返し上下させるヒートサイクル成形法を適用して複合熱可塑性樹脂組成物の射出成形を行う。ヒートサイクル成形法については、例えば前述の特許文献2に示されるような、蒸気と水の組み合わせによりキャビティ表面を短時間で加熱冷却するヒートサイクル射出成形方法を適用する。 In the present invention, a composite thermoplastic resin composition is applied by applying a heat cycle molding method in which the cavity surface temperature of the mold is repeatedly raised and lowered using an injection mold in which the cavity surface of the mold is alternately heated and cooled. Perform injection molding. The heat cycle molding method, for example as described in Patent Document 2 described above, that apply a heat cycle injection molding method for heating and cooling the cavity surface in a short time by a combination of steam and water.

ヒートサイクル成形法による成形は、具体的には、例えば、
(1) 金型のキャビティの表面温度を樹脂成分の熱変形温度以上に加熱しておき、成形材料を射出充填する。
(2) 保圧工程を経た後、金型を冷却して成形品を取り出しても変形しない温度以下に冷却して成形品を取り出す。
の手順で行うことができる。
Specifically, the molding by the heat cycle molding method is, for example,
(1) The surface temperature of the mold cavity is heated to a temperature higher than the heat deformation temperature of the resin component, and the molding material is injected and filled.
(2) After the pressure holding step, the mold is cooled and cooled to a temperature that does not deform even when the molded product is taken out, and the molded product is taken out.
It can be done with the procedure.

このようにして、金型のキャビティの表面温度を樹脂成分の熱変形温度以上に加熱しておいて成形材料を充填することにより、成形品の表面に無機質充填材の存在しないスキン層が形成され、このスキン層の存在で、めっきによる良好な外観とめっき密着性を得ることができる。金型を加熱しない通常の射出成形や、加熱しても樹脂成分の熱変形温度未満にしか加熱しない成形方法では、無機質充填材の存在しないスキン層が形成されず、後の工程でめっきを行っても良好な外観、めっき密着強度が得られない。   In this way, a skin layer free of inorganic filler is formed on the surface of the molded product by filling the molding material with the surface temperature of the cavity of the mold being heated above the heat deformation temperature of the resin component. In the presence of the skin layer, good appearance and plating adhesion can be obtained by plating. In normal injection molding that does not heat the mold, or molding methods that heat only below the heat distortion temperature of the resin component even when heated, a skin layer that does not contain an inorganic filler is not formed, and plating is performed in a later step. However, good appearance and plating adhesion strength cannot be obtained.

[めっき処理]
本発明では上述のようなヒートサイクル成形法により得られた射出成形品をめっき処理することにより、通常の成形法では到達できない高品位のめっき外観、密着強度、耐サーマルサイクル性を示す複合熱可塑性樹脂めっき成形品を得ることができる。
このめっき処理は、後述の実施例に示すように常法に従って行うことができる。
[Plating treatment]
In the present invention, composite thermoplastics exhibiting high-grade plating appearance, adhesion strength, and thermal cycle resistance that cannot be achieved by ordinary molding methods by plating an injection molded product obtained by the heat cycle molding method as described above. A resin plating molded product can be obtained.
This plating treatment can be performed according to a conventional method as shown in the examples described later.

めっき処理により形成されるめっき膜の厚さについては特に制限はないが、通常5〜100μm程度である。この膜厚が薄過ぎると耐腐食性、耐サーマルサイクル性に劣り、厚過ぎるとめっき工程が煩雑になり長時間を有し生産工程上、不利である。   Although there is no restriction | limiting in particular about the thickness of the plating film formed by plating process, Usually, it is about 5-100 micrometers. If this film thickness is too thin, it is inferior in corrosion resistance and thermal cycle resistance, and if it is too thick, the plating process becomes complicated and has a long time, which is disadvantageous in the production process.

また、化学めっき及び/又は電気めっきの代りに真空蒸着などの技術で金属皮膜を形成してもよく、その場合もめっき処理と同様な効果が得られる。   Further, instead of chemical plating and / or electroplating, a metal film may be formed by a technique such as vacuum deposition, and in this case, the same effect as the plating treatment can be obtained.
