Description

  The present invention relates to an aromatic polycarbonate resin composition. More specifically, the present invention relates to an aromatic polycarbonate resin composition from which a molded article having flame retardancy, surface hardness and a good white appearance can be obtained at the same time, and a molded body and a housing formed by molding the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition.

  Aromatic polycarbonate resins are resins having excellent heat resistance, mechanical properties, and electrical characteristics, and are widely used, for example, in automobile materials, electrical / electronic equipment materials, housing materials, and the like.

  In recent years, materials used for electrical and electronic equipment members such as computers, televisions, and printers, especially housings, have been required to have a high degree of flame resistance in consideration of home appliance fires. Therefore, aromatic polycarbonate resins imparted with flame retardancy are often used.

  On the other hand, from the viewpoint of environmental considerations and cost reductions in recent years, coating-less is desired, and accordingly, improvement of the surface hardness (scratch resistance) of the material itself is strongly desired. In addition, from the viewpoint of product design, a material having a good white appearance, specifically, low yellowness and high whiteness has been desired.

  However, the aromatic polycarbonate resin has a low surface hardness and tends to be easily damaged even when it is rubbed with a human nail or a hook, and cannot be used satisfactorily as a housing material. On the other hand, the present inventors improved the surface hardness and obtained a good whiteness, so that the titanium oxide used as a white pigment was highly filled, and in order to impart flame retardancy, a silicone resin was used. Attempted to blend.

As such a resin composition, for example, in Patent Document 1, a resin composition in which titanium oxide and a specific silicone compound are blended with an aromatic polycarbonate resin is proposed as a liquid crystal backlight material.
Patent Document 2 proposes a resin composition in which an aromatic polycarbonate resin, a white pigment, and an organopolysiloxane containing a specific organoxysilyl group are blended.

-Manufacturing method of aromatic polycarbonate resin The manufacturing method of aromatic polycarbonate resin is not specifically limited, Arbitrary methods are employable. Examples thereof include an interfacial polymerization method, a melt transesterification method, a pyridine method, a ring-opening polymerization method of a cyclic carbonate compound, and a solid phase transesterification method of a prepolymer. Hereinafter, a particularly preferable one of these methods will be specifically described.

.. Interfacial polymerization method First, the case of producing an aromatic polycarbonate resin by the interfacial polymerization method will be described. In the interfacial polymerization method, in the presence of an organic solvent inert to the reaction and an aqueous alkali solution, the pH is usually kept at 9 or higher, and an aromatic dihydroxy compound and a carbonate precursor (preferably phosgene) are reacted and then polymerized. An aromatic polycarbonate resin is obtained by interfacial polymerization in the presence of a catalyst. In the reaction system, a molecular weight adjusting agent (terminal terminator) may be present if necessary, and an antioxidant may be present for preventing the oxidation of the aromatic dihydroxy compound.

  The aromatic dihydroxy compound and the carbonate precursor are as described above. Of the carbonate precursors, phosgene is preferably used, and a method using phosgene is particularly called a phosgene method.

  Examples of the organic solvent inert to the reaction include chlorinated hydrocarbons such as dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, chloroform, monochlorobenzene and dichlorobenzene; aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene and xylene; It is done. In addition, 1 type may be used for an organic solvent and it may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  Examples of the alkali compound contained in the alkaline aqueous solution include alkali metal hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide. In addition, 1 type may be used for an alkali compound and it may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  Examples of the alkali compound contained in the alkaline aqueous solution include alkali metal compounds and alkaline earth metal compounds such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, and sodium hydrogen carbonate, among which sodium hydroxide and water Potassium oxide is preferred. In addition, an alkali compound may use 1 type and may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  Although there is no restriction | limiting in the density | concentration of the alkali compound in aqueous alkali solution, Usually, in order to control pH in aqueous alkali solution of reaction to 10-12, it is used at 5 to 10 weight%. For example, when phosgene is blown, the molar ratio of the bisphenol compound and the alkali compound is usually 1: 1.9 or more in order to control the pH of the aqueous phase to be 10 to 12, preferably 10 to 11. Among these, it is preferable that the ratio is 1: 2.0 or more, usually 1: 3.2 or less, and more preferably 1: 2.5 or less.

  Examples of the polymerization catalyst include tertiary amines such as trimethylamine, triethylamine, tributylamine, tripropylamine, trihexylamine and pyridine; quaternary such as trimethylbenzylammonium chloride, tetramethylammonium chloride and triethylbenzylammonium chloride. Ammonium salts and the like. In addition, 1 type may be used for a polymerization catalyst and it may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  Examples of the molecular weight regulator include compounds having a monovalent phenolic hydroxyl group. Specific examples include m-methylphenol, p-methylphenol, m-propylphenol, p-propylphenol, p-tert-butylphenol, and p-long chain alkyl-substituted phenol. In addition, a molecular weight regulator may use 1 type and may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  The usage-amount of a molecular weight regulator is 0.5 mol or more normally with respect to 100 mol of aromatic dihydroxy compounds, Preferably it is 1 mol or more, and is 50 mol or less normally, Preferably it is 30 mol or less. By making the usage-amount of a molecular weight modifier into this range, the thermal stability and hydrolysis resistance of an aromatic polycarbonate resin composition can be improved.

In the reaction, the order of mixing the reaction substrate, reaction medium, catalyst, additive and the like is arbitrary as long as the desired aromatic polycarbonate resin is obtained, and an appropriate order may be set arbitrarily. For example, when phosgene is used as the carbonate precursor, the molecular weight regulator can be mixed at any time as long as it is from the reaction (phosgenation) of the aromatic dihydroxy compound and phosgene to the start of the polymerization reaction. .
In addition, reaction temperature is 0-40 degreeC normally, and reaction time is normally several minutes (for example, 10 minutes)-several hours (for example, 6 hours).

-Melt transesterification method Next, the case where an aromatic polycarbonate resin is manufactured by the melt transesterification method is demonstrated. In the melt transesterification method, for example, a transesterification reaction between a carbonic acid diester and an aromatic dihydroxy compound is performed.

The aromatic dihydroxy compound is as described above.
On the other hand, examples of the carbonic acid diester include dialkyl carbonate compounds such as dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, and di-tert-butyl carbonate; diphenyl carbonate; substituted diphenyl carbonate such as ditolyl carbonate, and the like. Among these, diphenyl carbonate and substituted diphenyl carbonate are preferable, and diphenyl carbonate is more preferable. In addition, 1 type may be used for carbonic acid diester, and it may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  The ratio of the aromatic dihydroxy compound and the carbonic acid diester is arbitrary as long as the desired aromatic polycarbonate resin can be obtained, but it is preferable to use an equimolar amount or more of the carbonic acid diester with respect to 1 mol of the aromatic dihydroxy compound. More preferably, 0.01 mol or more is used. The upper limit is usually 1.30 mol or less. By setting it as such a range, the amount of terminal hydroxyl groups can be adjusted to a suitable range.

  In an aromatic polycarbonate resin, the amount of terminal hydroxyl groups tends to have a great influence on thermal stability, hydrolysis stability, color tone, and the like. For this reason, you may adjust the amount of terminal hydroxyl groups as needed by a well-known arbitrary method. In the melt transesterification reaction, an aromatic polycarbonate resin in which the terminal hydroxyl group amount is adjusted can be usually obtained by adjusting the mixing ratio of the carbonic acid diester and the aromatic dihydroxy compound; the degree of vacuum during the transesterification reaction, and the like. . In addition, this operation can also adjust the molecular weight of the aromatic polycarbonate resin obtained normally.

When adjusting the amount of terminal hydroxyl groups by adjusting the mixing ratio of the carbonic acid diester and the aromatic dihydroxy compound, the mixing ratio is as described above.
Further, as a more aggressive adjustment method, there may be mentioned a method in which a terminal terminator is mixed separately during the reaction. Examples of the terminal terminator at this time include monohydric phenols, monovalent carboxylic acids, carbonic acid diesters, and the like. In addition, 1 type may be used for a terminal terminator and it may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  When producing an aromatic polycarbonate resin by the melt transesterification method, a transesterification catalyst is usually used. Any transesterification catalyst can be used. Among these, for example, it is preferable to use an alkali metal compound and / or an alkaline earth metal compound. In addition, auxiliary compounds such as basic boron compounds, basic phosphorus compounds, basic ammonium compounds, and amine compounds may be used in combination. In addition, 1 type may be used for a transesterification catalyst and it may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  In the melt transesterification method, the reaction temperature is usually 100 to 320 ° C. The pressure during the reaction is usually a reduced pressure condition of 2 mmHg or less. As a specific operation, a melt polycondensation reaction may be performed under the above-mentioned conditions while removing a by-product such as an aromatic hydroxy compound.

  The melt polycondensation reaction can be performed by either a batch method or a continuous method. When performing by a batch type, the order which mixes a reaction substrate, a reaction medium, a catalyst, an additive, etc. is arbitrary as long as a desired aromatic polycarbonate resin is obtained, What is necessary is just to set an appropriate order arbitrarily. However, among them, the melt polycondensation reaction is preferably carried out in a continuous manner in consideration of the stability of the aromatic polycarbonate resin and the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition.

  In the melt transesterification method, a catalyst deactivator may be used as necessary. As the catalyst deactivator, a compound that neutralizes the transesterification catalyst can be arbitrarily used. Examples thereof include sulfur-containing acidic compounds and derivatives thereof. In addition, a catalyst deactivator may use 1 type and may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  The amount of the catalyst deactivator used is usually 0.5 equivalents or more, preferably 1 equivalent or more, and usually 10 equivalents or less, relative to the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal contained in the transesterification catalyst. Preferably it is 5 equivalents or less. Furthermore, it is 1 ppm or more normally with respect to aromatic polycarbonate resin, and is 100 ppm or less normally, Preferably it is 20 ppm or less.

  The molecular weight of the aromatic polycarbonate resin according to the present invention is arbitrary and may be appropriately selected and determined. The viscosity average molecular weight [Mv] converted from the solution viscosity is usually 10,000 or more, preferably 16000 or more, more preferably It is 18000 or more, and is usually 40000 or less, preferably 30000 or less. By making the viscosity average molecular weight more than the lower limit of the above range, the mechanical strength of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention can be further improved, and more preferable when used for applications requiring high mechanical strength. Become. On the other hand, by making the viscosity average molecular weight not more than the upper limit of the above range, it is possible to suppress and improve the fluidity reduction of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention, so that the molding processability can be improved and the molding process can be easily performed. Become. Two or more kinds of aromatic polycarbonate resins having different viscosity average molecular weights may be mixed and used. In this case, an aromatic polycarbonate resin having a viscosity average molecular weight outside the above preferred range may be mixed. Good.

The viscosity average molecular weight [Mv] is obtained by using methylene chloride as a solvent and obtaining an intrinsic viscosity [η] (unit: dl / g) at a temperature of 20 ° C. using an Ubbelohde viscometer. , Η = 1.23 × 10 ⁻⁴ Mv ^0.83 . The intrinsic viscosity [η] is a value calculated from the following equation by measuring the specific viscosity [η _sp ] at each solution concentration [C] (g / dl).

  Furthermore, when an aromatic polycarbonate resin having a branched structure is used as the aromatic polycarbonate resin (hereinafter referred to as “branched aromatic polycarbonate resin” as appropriate), the production method is not particularly limited, and any known production method should be used. Can do. Specific examples thereof include the methods described in JP-A-8-259687, JP-A-8-245782, and the like. In the methods described in these documents, when the aromatic dihydroxy compound and the carbonic acid diester are reacted by the melt transesterification method, the structural viscosity index is selected without using a branching agent by selecting the conditions of the catalyst or the production conditions. And an aromatic polycarbonate resin excellent in hydrolysis stability can be obtained.

  Further, as another method for producing a branched aromatic polycarbonate resin, a trifunctional or higher polyfunctional aromatic compound is used in addition to the aromatic dihydroxy compound and the carbonate precursor, which are the raw materials of the aromatic polycarbonate resin described above. These may be copolymerized by interfacial polymerization or melt stealth exchange.

  Examples of the trifunctional or higher polyfunctional aromatic compound include phloroglucin, 4,6-dimethyl-2,4,6-tri (4-hydroxyphenyl) heptene-2, 4,6-dimethyl-2,4, 6-tri (4-hydroxyphenyl) heptane, 2,6-dimethyl-2,4,6-tri (4-hydroxyphenyl) heptene-3, 1,3,5-tri (4-hydroxyphenyl) benzene, Polyhydroxy compounds such as 1,1,1-tri (4-hydroxyphenyl) ethane;

3,3-bis (4-hydroxyaryl) oxyindole (that is, isatin bisphenol), 5-chloroisatin, 5,7-dichloroisatin, 5-bromoisatin and the like. Of these, 1,1,1-tri (4-hydroxyphenyl) ethane is preferred.
In addition, a polyfunctional aromatic compound may use 1 type and may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  A polyfunctional aromatic compound can be used by substituting a part of the aromatic dihydroxy compound. The amount of the polyfunctional aromatic compound used is usually 0.01 mol% or more, preferably 0.1 mol% or more, and usually 10 mol% or less, preferably 3 mol, based on the aromatic dihydroxy compound. % Or less.

Examples of the branched structure contained in the aromatic polycarbonate resin obtained by the melt transesterification method include structures of the following formulas (1) to (4). In the following formulas (1) to (4), X is a single bond, an alkylene group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an alkylidene group having 2 to 8 carbon atoms, a cycloalkylene group having 5 to 15 carbon atoms, or 5 carbon atoms. 15 cycloalkylidene group or,, -O -, - S - , - CO -, - SO -, - SO 2 - in showing what is selected from the group consisting of divalent groups represented.

-Other matters regarding aromatic polycarbonate resin Among the aromatic polycarbonate resin compositions according to the present invention, those having a structural viscosity index N of 1.2 or more are preferably used. Many aromatic polycarbonate resins having such a structural flammability index N have a branched structure. The branched aromatic polycarbonate resin that can be suitably used in the present invention has a structural viscosity index N of usually 1.2 or more, and the use of this branched aromatic polycarbonate resin has a dripping prevention effect (of a molten resin ignited during combustion). The effect of preventing dripping) is preferable. Here, the structural viscosity index N is a value described in, for example, a known document (Shigeharu Onoki, “Rheology for chemists”, pages 15 to 16).

  The terminal hydroxyl group concentration of the aromatic polycarbonate resin according to the present invention is arbitrary, and may be appropriately selected and determined, but is usually 1000 ppm or less, preferably 800 ppm or less, more preferably 600 ppm or less. Thereby, the residence heat stability and color tone of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention can be further improved. The lower limit is usually 10 ppm or more, preferably 30 ppm or more, and more preferably 40 ppm or more, particularly in the case of an aromatic polycarbonate resin produced by the melt transesterification method. Thereby, the fall of molecular weight can be suppressed and the mechanical characteristic of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of this invention can be improved more.

  The unit of the terminal hydroxyl group concentration is the weight of the terminal hydroxyl group expressed in ppm relative to the weight of the aromatic polycarbonate resin. The measurement method is colorimetric determination (method described in Macromol. Chem. 88 215 (1965)) by the titanium tetrachloride / acetic acid method.

  The aromatic polycarbonate resin according to the present invention is not limited to an aromatic polycarbonate resin alone (the aromatic polycarbonate resin alone is not limited to an embodiment containing only one type of aromatic polycarbonate resin. For example, a plurality of monomer compositions and molecular weights different from each other are used. It may be used in the meaning including an embodiment including a kind of aromatic polycarbonate resin.) Or an alloy (mixture) of an aromatic polycarbonate resin and another thermoplastic resin may be used in combination. Furthermore, for example, for the purpose of further increasing the flame retardancy, the aromatic polycarbonate resin may be configured as a copolymer mainly composed of an aromatic polycarbonate resin, such as a copolymer with an oligomer or polymer having a siloxane structure. Good.

  In addition, the aromatic polycarbonate resin may contain an aromatic polycarbonate oligomer in order to improve the appearance and fluidity of the molded product. The viscosity average molecular weight [Mv] of the aromatic polycarbonate oligomer is usually 1500 or more, preferably 2000 or more, and usually 9500 or less, preferably 9000 or less. Furthermore, the aromatic polycarbonate ligomer contained is preferably 30% by weight or less of the aromatic polycarbonate resin (including the aromatic polycarbonate oligomer).

Furthermore, the aromatic polycarbonate resin according to the present invention may be not only a virgin raw material but also an aromatic polycarbonate resin regenerated from a used product (so-called material recycled aromatic polycarbonate resin). Examples of the used products include: optical recording media such as optical disks; light guide plates; vehicle window glass, vehicle headlamp lenses, windshields and other vehicle transparent members; water bottles and other containers; eyeglass lenses; Examples include architectural members such as glass windows and corrugated sheets. Also, non-conforming products, pulverized products obtained from sprues, runners, etc., or pellets obtained by melting them can be used.
However, the regenerated aromatic polycarbonate resin is preferably 80% by weight or less of the aromatic polycarbonate resin contained in the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention, and more preferably 50% by weight or less. preferable. The regenerated aromatic polycarbonate resin is likely to have been subjected to deterioration such as heat deterioration and aging deterioration, so when such an aromatic polycarbonate resin is used more than the above range, the hue and mechanical properties are not improved. This is because there is a possibility of lowering.

[3. Titanium oxide (B)]
The aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention contains titanium oxide. By containing titanium oxide in this manner, the surface hardness of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention and the molded body formed by molding the same can be improved, and a white appearance can be imparted. As the titanium oxide, a suitable one may be arbitrarily selected from conventionally known ones, and the production method, crystal form, shape such as average particle diameter, and the like are not particularly limited.

  The particle diameter of titanium oxide is usually 0.05 μm or more, preferably 0.1 μm or more, more preferably 0.15 μm or more, and usually 0.5 μm or less, preferably 0.35 μm or less. If the particle size is too small, the light shielding property tends to be inferior. On the other hand, if the particle size is too large, the white appearance or the surface appearance tends to deteriorate, or the impact strength tends to decrease.

  The production method of titanium oxide is arbitrary, and for example, those obtained by any method such as chlorine method and sulfuric acid method can be used. Among these, titanium oxide produced by the chlorine method is preferable because it is superior in terms of whiteness and the like as compared with titanium oxide produced by the sulfuric acid method. In addition, a titanium oxide may use only what was manufactured with the single manufacturing method, and may use together 2 or more types of titanium oxide manufactured with the different manufacturing method in arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  The crystal form of titanium oxide may be, for example, either anatase type or rutile type. Of these, the rutile type is preferred because it is superior in whiteness, light reflectance, and weather resistance compared to the anatase type. Note that only one titanium oxide having a single crystal form may be used, or two or more titanium oxides having different crystal forms may be used in any combination and ratio.

  Moreover, you may use the titanium oxide surface-treated with the surface treating agent. In this case, one type of surface treatment agent may be used, or two or more types may be used in any combination and ratio. Moreover, you may use only 1 type of titanium oxide surface-treated with the same surface treating agent, and you may use together 2 or more types of titanium oxide surface-treated with a different surface treating agent in arbitrary combinations and ratios.

  Examples of the surface treatment agent include inorganic compounds other than titanium oxide. Examples of inorganic compounds used for the surface treatment include alumina, silica, zirconia and the like. These inorganic compounds other than titanium oxide are usually used when treating titanium oxide in the production process of titanium oxide for the purpose of improving the handling of titanium oxide.

  In titanium oxide, the content of inorganic compounds other than titanium oxide used for the surface treatment may be appropriately selected and determined, but is usually 2 to 5% by weight in titanium oxide. If the content of the inorganic compound is too large, the adsorbed water in the inorganic compound used for the surface treatment may cause poor appearance or dripping during combustion in the molded article of the present invention. In particular, when the amount of the silica component is too large among the inorganic compounds, the above-mentioned poor appearance and dripping become remarkable. Therefore, when the surface of titanium oxide is treated with an inorganic compound, it is preferably treated with alumina, zirconia or the like rather than silica.

  Furthermore, examples of the surface treatment agent include organic silicon compounds such as organic silane compounds and organic silicone compounds. The use of titanium oxide surface-treated with an organosilicon compound is preferable because the thermal stability is greatly improved. Further, prior to the surface treatment with the organosilicon compound, the titanium oxide surface may be surface treated with another surface treatment agent such as an inorganic compound. However, in this case, it is preferable that the amount of the inorganic compound used for the surface treatment is small, for example, 2% by weight or less with respect to titanium oxide.

  Further, the surface treatment with the organosilicon compound improves the uniform dispersibility of titanium oxide in the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention, improves the stability of the dispersed state of titanium oxide, and the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition. It is also preferable from the viewpoint of improving the flame retardancy of the resin, and improving the affinity between the metal salt compound constituting the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition and the titanium oxide.

  Among the organosilicon compounds, for example, an organosilicon compound having an alkoxy group, an epoxy group, an amino group, or a Si—H bond is preferable, and among them, a silicone compound (hydrogen polysiloxane) having a Si—H bond is particularly preferable. More preferably, it is used. This is because the reactivity is high and the surface treatment effect tends to be high.

  The amount of the organosilicon compound used as the surface treatment agent is usually 1% by weight or more, preferably 1.5% by weight or more, and usually 5% by weight or less, preferably 3% by weight with respect to titanium oxide. % Or less. If the amount of the organosilicon compound is too small, the effect of the surface treatment may not be obtained. If the amount is too large, the amount of unreacted components increases, which may lead to the generation of gas and the deterioration of mechanical properties.

  The content of titanium oxide in the aromatic polycarbonate resin of the present invention is usually 5 parts by weight or more, preferably 7.5 parts by weight or more, more preferably 10 parts by weight or more with respect to 100 parts by weight of the aromatic polycarbonate resin described above. It is usually 25 parts by weight or less, preferably 20 parts by weight or less.

[5. Fluoropolymer (D)]
The aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention contains a fluoropolymer. Thus, by containing a fluoropolymer, the flame retardancy of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention can be improved, and in particular, the dripping prevention effect can be effectively enhanced.
As this fluoropolymer, a known polymer having fluorine can be arbitrarily selected and used, and among these, a fluoroolefin resin is preferred.

As fluoroolefin resin, the polymer and copolymer containing a fluoroethylene structure are mentioned, for example. Specific examples thereof include difluoroethylene resin, tetrafluoroethylene resin, tetrafluoroethylene / hexafluoropropylene copolymer resin, and the like.

[6. Silicone resin (E)]
The aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention contains a predetermined silicone resin. By containing this silicone resin simultaneously with the metal salt compound, it is possible to impart high flame retardancy to the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention. Further, the silicone resin exerts a certain surface treatment effect on titanium oxide, thereby suppressing the decomposition activity on the aromatic polycarbonate resin by titanium oxide. As a result, the yellow color of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention is reduced. It is possible to suppress the change and the decrease in whiteness. With conventional surface treatment agents, it has been difficult to completely suppress the decomposition activity of titanium oxide with a normal use amount, and thus the effect of the present invention is very useful in practice.

  The surface treatment effect on the titanium oxide by the silicone resin is exhibited regardless of the order of mixing. That is, the surface treatment effect is exhibited both when the titanium oxide is pretreated with a surface treating agent and then mixed with an aromatic polycarbonate resin or when the surface treatment is not performed in advance. For example, even when an aromatic polycarbonate resin and titanium oxide are mixed and then a silicone resin is mixed, the decomposition activity due to titanium oxide can be suppressed. Therefore, the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention is advantageous in that its production method is easy.

The silicone resin according to the present invention has a T unit represented by RSiO _1.5 as an essential component, and (i) the T unit is an entire siloxane unit (R _0-3 SiO _{2.0-0 .5} ) Containing more than a predetermined concentration, (ii) Of the total hydrocarbon groups (R), aromatic groups occupy more than a predetermined concentration, and (iii) Silanol group content falls within a predetermined range It is. In addition to the T unit, the silicone resin according to the present invention contains a D unit represented by R ₂ SiO and a Q unit represented by the formula SiO ₂ , which impairs the object of the present invention. There is no problem unless it is.
Hereinafter, the configuration of the silicone resin will be described in detail.

The silicone resin according to the present invention usually has a monofunctional M unit represented by R ₃ SiO _0.5 , a bifunctional D unit represented by R ₂ SiO _1.0 , and RSiO _1.5. in represented by 3 functional groups of the T unit, and is composed of one or more repeating units selected from the group consisting of tetrafunctional group of Q units represented by SiO _2.0. Here, R represents a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms. Each R may be the same or different.

  R is at least one hydrocarbon group selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group having usually 1 to 12 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group having 2 to 12 carbon atoms, and an aryl group having usually 6 to 12 carbon atoms. It is preferable that Examples of the alkyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms include methyl group, ethyl group, n-propyl group, isopropyl group, butyl group, hexyl group, octyl group, dodecyl group, and the like. Particularly preferred. Examples of the alkenyl group having 2 to 12 carbon atoms include vinyl group, butenyl group, allyl group and the like. Examples of the aryl group having 6 to 12 carbon atoms include a phenyl group, a naphthyl group, a tolyl group and the like, and among them, a phenyl group is particularly preferable.

  The silicone resin according to the present invention is usually at least 50 mol%, preferably 60 mol, of the total hydrocarbon groups (that is, R) of each repeating unit such as M unit, D unit, T unit and Q unit described above. % Or more, more preferably 65 mol% or more, particularly preferably 100 mol% is occupied by the aromatic group. When the content of the aromatic group is less than the above range, the heat resistance of the silicone resin itself decreases, and not only the silicone resin itself is easily decomposed during melt-kneading in the production process of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition. In addition, the decomposed silicone resin may induce the decomposition of the polycarbonate resin, and further, the compatibility between the aromatic polycarbonate resin and the silicone resin is lowered, so that the dispersibility is lowered and sufficient flame retardancy is obtained. It's hard to be done. Moreover, it is preferable that content of a phenyl group is contained in the said range among aromatic groups.

Further, silicone resin according to the present invention, the T-unit, with respect to the total siloxane units _{(R 0~3 SiO 2.0~0.5),} usually 50 mol% or more, preferably 60 mol% or more More preferably, it is 70 mol% or more, still more preferably 80 mol% or more, and 100 mol% is particularly preferable. This means that the proportion of the T unit in the M unit, D unit, T unit, and Q unit constituting the silicone resin is not less than a predetermined concentration. When the content of the T unit is less than the predetermined concentration, the heat resistance of the silicone resin itself is lowered, and not only is it easily decomposed during melt-kneading, but flame retardancy tends to be extremely lowered.

  Furthermore, the content of silanol groups in the silicone resin according to the present invention is usually 2.5% by weight or more, preferably 3% by weight or more, more preferably 4% by weight or more, and particularly preferably 5% by weight or more. It is 10% by weight or less, preferably 9% by weight or less, more preferably 8% by weight or less, and particularly preferably 7.5% by weight or less. By setting the content of the silanol group in the above range, an aromatic polycarbonate resin having a low whiteness and a high whiteness, and a molded body can be obtained. The reason why such an advantage is obtained is not clear, but the silanol group exerts a kind of surface treatment effect on titanium oxide, and as a result, the decomposition activity of titanium oxide on aromatic polycarbonate resin is suppressed. Presumed to be. If the silanol group content is too small, the surface treatment effect on titanium oxide is small, and the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition may cause yellowing or a decrease in whiteness. Moreover, when there is too much silanol group content, the thermal stability of an aromatic polycarbonate resin composition may fall remarkably.

The silicone resin may contain an alkoxy group in addition to the hydroxyl group, but the amount is preferably 10% by weight or less. This is because if the alkoxy group exceeds 10% by weight, gelation is likely to occur, and the mechanical properties of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition may be deteriorated.
Moreover, 1 type may be used for a silicone resin and it may use 2 or more types together by arbitrary combinations and a ratio.

  The average molecular weight (weight average molecular weight) of the silicone resin according to the present invention is not particularly limited and may be appropriately selected and used, but is usually 450 or more, preferably 1000 or more, more preferably 1500 or more, and particularly preferably 1700 or more. It is usually 300,000 or less, preferably 100,000 or less, more preferably 20000 or less, and particularly preferably 15000 or less. When the weight average molecular weight is less than the lower limit of the above range, it is difficult to produce, and the heat resistance of the silicone resin may be extremely lowered. Moreover, when the weight average molecular weight exceeds the upper limit of the above range, the flame retardancy tends to decrease because of poor dispersibility, and the mechanical properties of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition tend to decrease. The weight average molecular weight is usually measured by GPC (gel permeation chromatograph).

  The content of the silicone resin in the aromatic polycarbonate resin of the present invention is usually 0.1 parts by weight or more, preferably 0.2 parts by weight or more, more preferably 0.3 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the aromatic polycarbonate resin. Part or more, particularly preferably 0.5 part by weight or more, usually 5 parts by weight or less, preferably 4.5 parts by weight or less, more preferably 4 parts by weight or less, particularly preferably 3.5 parts by weight or less. If the content of the silicone resin is too small, the flame retardant property of the aromatic polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention may be insufficient. Conversely, if the content is too large, the molded article of the present invention may have poor appearance and mechanical strength. And thermal stability may be reduced.

The fumed silica and the silica obtained from the precipitation method (hereinafter referred to as “precipitated silica” as appropriate) preferably have a surface area in the range of 50 to 400 m ² / g. When the surface area is in this range, polyorganosiloxane is easily supported (for example, absorbed, adsorbed or retained) on the surface. On the other hand, when using silica obtained from the mining form (hereinafter, referred to as “mining silica” as appropriate), at least an equal weight of fumed silica or precipitated silica is combined, and the surface area of the mixture is 50 to 400 m ² / g.
