本発明は粉体塗料、レーザー焼結用の焼結粉末やプラスチックマグネット用バインダーなどに使用される溶融
性を改善した球状ポリアミド粒子の製造方法及び溶融性を改善した球状ポリアミド粒子に関する。
The present invention relates to a method for producing spherical polyamide particles with improved meltability and spherical polyamide particles with improved meltability, which are used in powder coatings, sintered powders for laser sintering, binders for plastic magnets, and the like.
ポリアミド樹脂粉末は粉体塗料、レーザー焼結用の焼結粉末やプラスチックマグネット用バインダーなどに広く使用されているが、それらの用途に於ける品質向上や新規用途への展開により球状で粒径の比較的そろった品質の高いポリアミド樹脂粉体が求められるようになってきた。 Polyamide resin powders are widely used in powder coatings, sintered powders for laser sintering, binders for plastic magnets, etc., but their spherical and particle size has been improved by improving the quality of these applications and developing new applications. There has been a demand for polyamide resin powder having relatively high quality.
従来これらの用途に用いられるポリアミド樹脂粉末は溶媒の温度による溶解度の差を利用する化学粉砕方式で製造する方法（特許文献１〜３）や高速回転する円盤の上に溶融ポリアミド樹脂を滴下し、周囲に飛散させて微細な粉末を得る方法（特許文献４）等の方法により製造することが知られていたが、公知の方法で得られるものの多くは多孔質状であり球状にならない、あるいは粒度分布が広いという欠点があった。粉体塗料やレーザー焼結用の焼結粉末やプラスチックマグネット用バインダー分野等で使用するためには、球状で粒径の比較的そろった品質の高いポリアミド樹脂粉体が求められていた。 Conventionally, the polyamide resin powder used for these applications is a method of manufacturing by a chemical pulverization method using the difference in solubility depending on the temperature of the solvent (Patent Documents 1 to 3) or a molten polyamide resin is dropped on a high-speed rotating disk, It has been known to produce by a method such as a method of obtaining fine powder by scattering to the surroundings (Patent Document 4). However, most of the products obtained by a known method are porous and do not become spherical or have a particle size. There was a drawback of wide distribution. In order to be used in the fields of powder coatings, sintered powders for laser sintering, binders for plastic magnets, and the like, high quality polyamide resin powders having a spherical shape and a relatively uniform particle size have been demanded.
一方炭素数６〜１２のラクタム類の１種又は２種以上をパラフイン等の不活性溶媒中で、重合促進剤として三塩化リンを使用してアルカリ触媒重合を行って得られる球状のポリアミド粒子（特許文献５〜７）は球状で狭い粒度分布を有するが溶融性が悪いという欠点を有しているため用途が限定されていた。 On the other hand, spherical polyamide particles obtained by carrying out alkali-catalyzed polymerization using one or more of 6-12 carbon lactams in an inert solvent such as paraffin using phosphorus trichloride as a polymerization accelerator ( Patent Documents 5 to 7) are spherical and have a narrow particle size distribution, but have the disadvantage of poor meltability, so their applications are limited.
粉体塗料、レーザー焼結用の焼結粉末やプラスチックマグネット用バインダーに適する球状で狭い粒度分布を有し溶融性の良好なポリアミド粒子を得ることが本発明の課題である。 It is an object of the present invention to obtain spherical particles having a narrow particle size distribution suitable for powder coatings, sintered powders for laser sintering and binders for plastic magnets and having good meltability.
本発明者は鋭意研究した結果、球状ポリアミド粒子を水媒体中で形状を保持したまま加水分解を行い、溶融性を改善できることを見出し本発明を完成した。すなわち本発明は球状ポリアミド粒子を、水媒体中で形状を保持したまま加水分解することを特徴とする溶融性を改善した球状ポリアミド粒子の製造方法、ならびにその製造方法で得られた球状ポリアミド粒子に関するものである。好ましくは球状ポリアミド粒子が炭素数６〜１２のラクタム類の１種又は２種以上をパラフイン中で、重合促進剤として三塩化リンを使用してアルカリ触媒重合を行って得られる球状ポリアミド粒子である。水媒体中に加水分解触媒を加えることが好ましく、触媒としては炭素数１〜４の有機酸、硫酸、塩酸、硝酸及び燐酸から選ばれる酸があげられる。さらに炭素数１〜４の低級アルコールから選ばれたアルコール及び／または界面活性剤を添加し目的の球状ポリアミド粒子を製造することができる。 As a result of diligent research, the present inventors have found that spherical polyamide particles can be hydrolyzed while maintaining the shape in an aqueous medium to improve the meltability, thereby completing the present invention. That is, the present invention relates to a method for producing spherical polyamide particles having improved meltability, characterized by hydrolyzing spherical polyamide particles while maintaining their shape in an aqueous medium, and spherical polyamide particles obtained by the production method. Is. Preferably, the spherical polyamide particles are spherical polyamide particles obtained by alkali-catalyzed polymerization using phosphorus trichloride as a polymerization accelerator in one or more kinds of lactams having 6 to 12 carbon atoms in paraffin. . A hydrolysis catalyst is preferably added to the aqueous medium, and examples of the catalyst include acids selected from organic acids having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and phosphoric acid. Furthermore, the target spherical polyamide particles can be produced by adding an alcohol and / or a surfactant selected from lower alcohols having 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
本発明の方法で製造された球状ポリアミド粒子は粉体塗料、レーザー焼結用の焼結粉末やプラスチックマグネット用バインダーなどの使用に適するものである。 The spherical polyamide particles produced by the method of the present invention are suitable for use in powder paints, sintered powders for laser sintering, binders for plastic magnets, and the like.
本発明の溶融性を改善した球状ポリアミド粒子の製造方法について以下に詳細に述べる。均質な球状で、狭い粒度分布幅を有するが溶融性が悪い球状ポリアミド粒子の製法は公知であり、特許文献５〜７に示される方法で製造することができる。例えば、ラウロラクタム及び／または炭素数６〜８のラクタム類の１種又は２種以上をパラフイン中で、重合促進剤として三塩化リンを使用してアルカリ触媒重合を行って得られる事が知られている。本発明に用いる球状ポリアミド粒子の粒径は特に限定されないが３μｍ以上２００μｍ以下が好ましい。
本発明の溶融性を改善した球状ポリアミド粒子は上記の溶融性が悪い球状ポリアミド粒子を水媒体中で形状を保持したまま加水分解して製造することができる。また水媒体中には加水分解を触媒する物質、及び／または、ポリアミド粒子と水の親和性を増すため低級アルコールや界面活性剤を含有させることが好ましい。
水の量は球状ポリアミド粒子１部に対して水１〜２０部が用いられるが特に水２〜１０部が好ましい。水の量が多いと容積効率が悪くなり、分離に手間がかかり、また水の量が少ないと攪拌が困難となる。
加水分解触媒としてはポリアミド粒子を加水分解させるものであれば特に限定されないが例えば加水分解酵素、有機酸及び無機酸等があげられる。有機酸としては蟻酸、酢酸、プロピオン酸等の炭素数１〜４の有機酸が好ましく、無機酸としては硫酸、塩酸、硝酸、燐酸が好ましく、これらの酸の１種又は２種以上を用いることができる。反応活性や経済性から硫酸、塩酸及び硝酸が特に好ましい。それらの酸の添加量は特に限定されないがポリアミドの１基本モルの０．１〜１０倍当量、好ましくは０．３〜５．０倍当量を使用することが好ましい。
球状ポリアミド粒子と水の親和性を増すためにメチルアルコール、エチルアルコール、イソプロピルアルコール、ブチルアルコール等の炭素数１〜４の低級アルコール及び／または界面活性剤を添加することができる。界面活性剤としてはアニオン性界面活性剤、非イオン性界面活性剤やカチオン性界面活性剤が使用できるが、酸に対する安定性や濡れ性改善の性能等から非イオン性界面活性剤が好ましい。非イオン性界面活性剤は特に限定されるものではないが、例えばポリオキシエチレンアルキルフェノール、ポリオキシエチレンスチリルフェニルエーテル、ポリオキシエチレンアルキルエーテル、ポリオキシエチレンアルケニルエーテルなどが上げられる。これらの非イオン性界面活性剤は一種を単独で用いても二種以上を併用しても良い。
低級アルコールや界面活性剤の添加量は限定されないが、添加量が少ないと球状ポリアミド粒子の水媒体中への分散が悪くなり、多すぎると反応時の泡立ちが多くなったり経済性が悪くなるため好ましくない。好ましくは低級アルコールの添加量は球状ポリアミド粒子の濡れ性が改善する量、すなわち水媒体１００部に対して５〜２０部であり、界面活性剤の添加量は水媒体１００部に対して０．０５〜５部である。
加水分解の反応温度は処理後の球状ポリアミド粒子の融点以下で行うことができるが、反応操作や反応制御の容易さから８０〜１５０℃が好ましい。反応温度が８０℃より低いと処理時間が長くかかり、反応温度が１５０℃より高いと高加圧下の反応となるため反応が煩雑となったり、加水分解反応の制御が難しくなり加水分解反応が進みすぎて球状ポリアミド粒子の物性が悪くなったりするため好ましくない。
球状ポリアミド粒子の溶融性は触媒の種類や量、処理温度及び処理時間によって容易にコントロールが可能であり目的の性能に合わせてそれらを設定することができる。
The method for producing spherical polyamide particles with improved meltability according to the present invention will be described in detail below. A method for producing spherical polyamide particles having a uniform spherical shape and a narrow particle size distribution width but poor meltability is known, and can be produced by the methods described in Patent Documents 5 to 7. For example, it is known that one or two or more kinds of laurolactam and / or lactams having 6 to 8 carbon atoms can be obtained by carrying out alkali-catalyzed polymerization using phosphorus trichloride as a polymerization accelerator in paraffin. ing. The particle size of the spherical polyamide particles used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but is preferably 3 μm or more and 200 μm or less.
The spherical polyamide particles with improved meltability according to the present invention can be produced by hydrolyzing the above-mentioned spherical polyamide particles with poor meltability while maintaining the shape in an aqueous medium. The aqueous medium preferably contains a substance that catalyzes hydrolysis and / or a lower alcohol or a surfactant in order to increase the affinity of the polyamide particles and water.
The amount of water is 1 to 20 parts of water with respect to 1 part of the spherical polyamide particles, but 2 to 10 parts of water is particularly preferable. When the amount of water is large, the volumetric efficiency is deteriorated, and it takes time and effort to separate. When the amount of water is small, stirring becomes difficult.
The hydrolysis catalyst is not particularly limited as long as it can hydrolyze the polyamide particles, and examples thereof include hydrolase, organic acid and inorganic acid. The organic acid is preferably an organic acid having 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as formic acid, acetic acid and propionic acid, and the inorganic acid is preferably sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid or phosphoric acid, and one or more of these acids should be used. Can do. In view of reaction activity and economy, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid are particularly preferable. The addition amount of these acids is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to use 0.1 to 10 times equivalent, preferably 0.3 to 5.0 times equivalent of one basic mole of polyamide.
In order to increase the affinity of the spherical polyamide particles and water, a lower alcohol having 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol and butyl alcohol and / or a surfactant can be added. As the surfactant, an anionic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant or a cationic surfactant can be used, but a nonionic surfactant is preferred from the standpoint of acid stability and performance of improving wettability. The nonionic surfactant is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include polyoxyethylene alkylphenol, polyoxyethylene styryl phenyl ether, polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, polyoxyethylene alkenyl ether and the like. These nonionic surfactants may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
The amount of the lower alcohol or surfactant added is not limited, but if the amount added is small, the dispersion of the spherical polyamide particles in the aqueous medium will be poor, and if it is too large, foaming during the reaction will increase and the economy will be poor. It is not preferable. Preferably, the addition amount of the lower alcohol is an amount that improves the wettability of the spherical polyamide particles, that is, 5 to 20 parts with respect to 100 parts of the aqueous medium, and the addition amount of the surfactant is 0.00 with respect to 100 parts of the aqueous medium. 05 to 5 parts.
The reaction temperature for the hydrolysis can be carried out below the melting point of the spherical polyamide particles after the treatment, but is preferably 80 to 150 ° C. from the viewpoint of easy reaction operation and reaction control. If the reaction temperature is lower than 80 ° C, it takes a long time. If the reaction temperature is higher than 150 ° C, the reaction becomes highly pressurized and the reaction becomes complicated and the hydrolysis reaction becomes difficult to control. This is not preferable because the physical properties of the spherical polyamide particles deteriorate.
The meltability of the spherical polyamide particles can be easily controlled by the type and amount of the catalyst, the processing temperature and the processing time, and can be set according to the target performance.
加水分解処理後はろ過、中和、洗浄等の通常の分離精製操作を行うことにより溶媒中の球状ポリアミド粒子を単離することができる。また必要に応じて過酸化水素等で脱色することができる。 After the hydrolysis treatment, the spherical polyamide particles in the solvent can be isolated by performing ordinary separation and purification operations such as filtration, neutralization, and washing. Moreover, it can decolorize with hydrogen peroxide etc. as needed.
上記の方法によって得られた球状ポリアミド粒子は要求特性に応じて耐熱剤、紫外線吸収剤、耐候剤、帯電防止剤、滑剤、着色剤、安定剤、分散剤などを添加しても良く、また他の粉末状樹脂と混合して用いることもできる。 The spherical polyamide particles obtained by the above method may be added with a heat-resistant agent, an ultraviolet absorber, a weathering agent, an antistatic agent, a lubricant, a colorant, a stabilizer, a dispersant, etc. according to the required properties. It can also be used by mixing with a powdered resin.
本発明の方法により球形で比較的粒子径の分布幅が狭く、融点幅も狭く、溶融性の良い球状ポリアミド粒子が製造される。一般的にこの方法で製造された球状ポリアミド粒子は粉体塗料、レーザー焼結用の焼結粉末やプラスチックマグネット用バインダー等での使用に適するものである。
