Description
本発明は、カチオン性表面サイズ剤の製造方法、その方法で得られるサイズ剤、そのサイズ剤を塗工した紙および板紙に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a cationic surface sizing agent, a sizing agent obtained by the method, paper and paperboard coated with the sizing agent.
従来のカチオン性表面サイズ剤は、一般的に、スチレン類および３級アミノ基含有モノマー（すなわち、カチオン性モノマー）を主成分とするモノマー成分を重合させて得られる３級アミノ基を有する共重合体、または３級アミノ基を４級化変成した４級アンモニウム塩基を有する共重合体の水溶液である（特許文献１および２）。これらの共重合体は、以下のような方法で得られる：
（ｉ）有機溶剤または有機溶剤と水との混合溶媒中で、油溶性重合触媒を用いた溶液重合を行う。
（ｉｉ）水主体の水系溶媒中で、水溶性重合触媒を用いた乳化重合を行う。
このような方法で得られたカチオン性表面サイズ剤は、良好なサイズ性を有するものの、適用される環境、特に水の影響（硬度、ｐＨなど）を受けやすく、安定性が不十分という問題がある。
Conventional cationic surface sizing agents generally have a copolymer having a tertiary amino group obtained by polymerizing a monomer component mainly composed of styrenes and a tertiary amino group-containing monomer (that is, a cationic monomer). It is an aqueous solution of a copolymer or a copolymer having a quaternary ammonium base in which a tertiary amino group is quaternized (Patent Documents 1 and 2). These copolymers are obtained in the following way:
(I) Solution polymerization using an oil-soluble polymerization catalyst is performed in an organic solvent or a mixed solvent of an organic solvent and water.
(Ii) Emulsion polymerization using a water-soluble polymerization catalyst is performed in a water-based aqueous solvent.
Although the cationic surface sizing agent obtained by such a method has a good sizing property, it is easily affected by the environment in which it is applied, particularly water (hardness, pH, etc.), and has a problem of insufficient stability. is there.
一方、有機溶剤を用いずに水中で乳化重合して得られるカチオン性表面サイズ剤、あるいは溶液重合によって得られるカチオン性ポリマーと疎水性モノマーとを乳化重合して得られるカチオン性表面サイズ剤は、乳化剤として界面活性剤などを使用する場合が多い（特許文献３〜７）。界面活性剤を使用した乳化重合物は、溶液重合によって得られるカチオン性表面サイズ剤と比較して、使用される環境の影響を受けにくく、安定性の改善が期待できるが、その改善効果は十分ではない。さらに、このような乳化重合物は、界面活性剤を使用しているため、溶液重合によって得られるカチオン性表面サイズ剤と比較して、サイズ性付与効果が劣る。 On the other hand, a cationic surface sizing agent obtained by emulsion polymerization in water without using an organic solvent, or a cationic surface sizing agent obtained by emulsion polymerization of a cationic polymer and a hydrophobic monomer obtained by solution polymerization, A surfactant is often used as an emulsifier (Patent Documents 3 to 7). Compared with cationic surface sizing agents obtained by solution polymerization, emulsion polymers using surfactants are less susceptible to the environment in which they are used and can be expected to improve stability. is not. Furthermore, since such an emulsion polymer uses a surfactant, the effect of imparting sizing properties is inferior to a cationic surface sizing agent obtained by solution polymerization.
また、界面活性剤を用いずに乳化重合を行う製造方法も知られている（特許文献８および９）。界面活性剤を用いずに得られるカチオン性表面サイズ剤は、溶液重合によって得られるカチオン性ポリマー水溶液を分散剤として使用しているため、界面活性剤を使用したサイズ剤と比較して、同等の安定性と優れたサイズ性とを示す。しかし、溶液重合によって得られるカチオン性表面サイズ剤と比較して、サイズ性付与効果が劣る。 Moreover, the manufacturing method which performs emulsion polymerization without using surfactant is also known (patent documents 8 and 9). Since the cationic surface sizing agent obtained without using a surfactant uses an aqueous cationic polymer solution obtained by solution polymerization as a dispersant, it is equivalent to the sizing agent using a surfactant. Shows stability and excellent size. However, compared with the cationic surface sizing agent obtained by solution polymerization, the sizing effect is inferior.
本発明の課題は、使用される環境、特に水の条件（硬度、ｐＨなど）や適用される紙の種類（紙、板紙など）に拘らず、優れた分散安定性を有し、かつ優れたサイズ性を付与するカチオン性表面サイズ剤を提供することである。 The problem of the present invention is that it has excellent dispersion stability regardless of the environment in which it is used, particularly water conditions (hardness, pH, etc.) and the type of paper applied (paper, paperboard, etc.). It is to provide a cationic surface sizing agent that imparts sizing properties.

本発明によれば、使用される環境、特に水の条件（硬度、ｐＨなど）や適用される紙の種類（紙、板紙など）に拘らず、優れた分散安定性を有し、かつ優れたサイズ性を付与するカチオン性表面サイズ剤を提供し得るという効果を奏する。 According to the present invention, regardless of the environment used, particularly the water conditions (hardness, pH, etc.) and the type of paper applied (paper, paperboard, etc.), it has excellent dispersion stability and is excellent.

Further, by making the copolymer (B) in the form of a quaternary ammonium salt, it is less affected by the hardness and pH of the water used, and it is uniform without agglomeration when diluted to the coating solution concentration. Thus, a sizing agent having an effect such as being dispersed in an aqueous solution can be obtained. Therefore, even when coated on paper or paperboard that does not contain an internal sizing agent, neutral paper with a Steecht sizing degree of 2 seconds or less, or neutral paperboard with a 2-minute Cobb water absorption of 100 g / m 2 or more, the surface size Since the amount of the agent distributed on the paper surface increases without being dispersed by aggregated molecules throughout the paper, it is considered that the surface sizing agent exhibits the hydrophobicity sufficiently on the paper surface.

（第２工程）
第２工程は、上記共重合体（Ａ）と疎水性モノマー（ｄ）（以下、単に「ｄ成分」と記載する場合がある）とを、界面活性剤を用いずに、特定の条件下で重合させて共重合体（Ｂ）を得る工程である。
(Second step)
In the second step, the copolymer (A) and the hydrophobic monomer (d) (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as “d component”) are used under specific conditions without using a surfactant. This is a step of polymerizing to obtain a copolymer (B).
本発明の製造方法に用いられる疎水性モノマー（ｄ成分）は、共重合体（Ａ）と共重合可能なものであれば、特に限定されない。ｄ成分としては、例えば、スチレン、２−エチルヘキシル（メタ）アクリレート、メチル（メタ）アクリレート、ｎ−ブチル（メタ）アクリレート、イソブチル（メタ）アクリレート、ｔ−ブチル（メタ）アクリレートなどが挙げられる。 The hydrophobic monomer (d component) used in the production method of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it is copolymerizable with the copolymer (A).

In the second step, the copolymer (A) is used in a proportion of 30 to 70% by weight with respect to the entire components constituting the copolymer (B), and the component a constitutes the copolymer (B). It is used so that it may become a ratio of 8-20 weight% with respect to the whole component to do. By using the copolymer (A) and the component a so as to have a specific ratio, good size and dispersibility can be obtained.
The copolymer (A) is preferably used in a proportion of 40 to 70% by weight with respect to the total components constituting the copolymer (B), and the a component is the total components constituting the copolymer (B). Preferably it is used so that it may become a ratio of 8-18 weight%.
共重合体（Ａ）とｄ成分との重合反応は、界面活性剤を用いずに、水溶性のフリーラジカル開始剤と重金属塩とを用いる酸化還元系、すなわちレドックス触媒を用いて行われる。共重合体（Ａ）とｄ成分との重合反応を、酸化還元系、すなわちレドックス触媒を用いて行うことにより、ｄ成分の単独重合体が合成されにくく、本発明において目的とする共重合体（Ａ）とｄ成分とのグラフト共重合体（共重合体（Ｂ））が合成されやすくなる。その結果、優れた分散性を有し、優れたサイズ性を付与し得るサイズ剤を得ることができる。また、界面活性剤を用いないことにより、界面活性剤によって分散されたｄ成分のみの重合体が合成されにくく、最終的に得られるサイズ剤にも界面活性剤が含まれないため、さらなるサイズ性付与効果の向上が期待できる。 The polymerization reaction of the copolymer (A) and the component d is carried out using a redox catalyst using a water-soluble free radical initiator and a heavy metal salt, that is, a redox catalyst, without using a surfactant. By carrying out the polymerization reaction of the copolymer (A) and the d component using a redox system, that is, a redox catalyst, it is difficult to synthesize the homopolymer of the d component, and the target copolymer ( A graft copolymer (copolymer (B)) of A) and d component is easily synthesized. As a result, a sizing agent having excellent dispersibility and capable of imparting excellent sizing properties can be obtained. Further, by not using a surfactant, it is difficult to synthesize a polymer containing only the d component dispersed by the surfactant, and the final sizing agent does not contain a surfactant, so that further sizing properties are achieved. Improvement of the grant effect can be expected.

The polymerization reaction is usually performed at 70 to 90 ° C, preferably 75 to 90 ° C. Moreover, reaction time is 1 to 5 hours normally, Preferably it is 2 to 4 hours.
（第３工程）
第３工程は、上記共重合体（Ｂ）に存在する３級アミノ基を４級化し、共重合体（Ｂ）の４級アンモニウム塩を得る工程である。
(Third step)
The third step is a step of quaternizing the tertiary amino group present in the copolymer (B) to obtain a quaternary ammonium salt of the copolymer (B).
共重合体（Ｂ）に存在する３級アミノ基のうち、４級化される割合は特に限定されないが、好ましくは５０モル％以上、より好ましくは６０モル％以上の３級アミノ基が４級化される。 The ratio of quaternization among the tertiary amino groups present in the copolymer (B) is not particularly limited, but preferably 50 mol% or more, more preferably 60 mol% or more of the tertiary amino groups are quaternary. It becomes.
４級化は、通常、エピクロルヒドリンやエピブロモヒドリンといったエピハロヒドリンなどの４級化剤を用いて行う。 Quaternization is usually performed using a quaternizing agent such as epihalohydrin such as epichlorohydrin or epibromohydrin.
このようにして得られた共重合体（Ｂ）の４級アンモニウム塩は、好ましくは１００ｎｍ以上、より好ましくは１００〜３００ｎｍの平均粒子径を有する。 The quaternary ammonium salt of the copolymer (B) thus obtained preferably has an average particle diameter of 100 nm or more, more preferably 100 to 300 nm.

The smaller the residue, the less aggregates and the better the dispersion stability.
表４に示すように、本発明の製造方法によって得られたカチオン性表面サイズ剤が塗工された紙は、合成硬水を用いた場合でも、水道水を用いた場合とほとんど遜色のない優れたサイズ性を有し、２分Ｃｏｂｂ吸水度も低く水が吸収されにくいことがわかる。さらに、本発明の製造方法によって得られたカチオン性表面サイズ剤は、水道水および合成硬水のいずれを用いた場合も発泡性が低く、塗工作業性にも優れていることがわかる。また、水道水および合成硬水のいずれを用いた場合も濾過残渣量が少なく、塗工液中での安定性（分散安定性）に優れることがわかる。 As shown in Table 4, the paper coated with the cationic surface sizing agent obtained by the production method of the present invention was superior to the case of using tap water even when using synthetic hard water. It can be seen that it has sizing properties and the 2-minute Cobb water absorption is low, making it difficult for water to be absorbed. Furthermore, it can be seen that the cationic surface sizing agent obtained by the production method of the present invention has low foaming properties and excellent coating workability when either tap water or synthetic hard water is used. Moreover, it can be seen that the amount of filtration residue is small when either tap water or synthetic hard water is used, and the stability (dispersion stability) in the coating solution is excellent.
一方、本発明の製造方法以外の方法によって得られたカチオン性表面サイズ剤が塗工された紙は、相対的にサイズ度が低いことがわかる。また、比較的良好なサイズ度を有する場合でも（比較例２および７）、合成硬水を用いた場合には、サイズ度が半分程度まで低下することがわかる。また、２分Ｃｏｂｂ吸水度についても相対的に高く、特に、合成硬水を用いた場合には、非常に水が吸収されやすいことがわかる。さらに、発泡性についても、合成硬水を用いた場合には、非常に発泡しやすいことがわかる。また、水道水および合成硬水のいずれを用いた場合も濾過残渣量が多く、塗工液中での安定性（分散安定性）に劣ることがわかる。 On the other hand, it can be seen that the paper coated with the cationic surface sizing agent obtained by a method other than the production method of the present invention has a relatively low sizing degree. Moreover, even when it has a comparatively favorable sizing degree (comparative examples 2 and 7), when synthetic hard water is used, it turns out that a sizing degree falls to about a half. Further, the 2-minute Cobb water absorption is also relatively high, and it can be seen that water is very easily absorbed particularly when synthetic hard water is used. Furthermore, it can be seen that foaming is very easy to foam when synthetic hard water is used. In addition, it can be seen that when either tap water or synthetic hard water is used, the amount of filtration residue is large and the stability (dispersion stability) in the coating solution is poor.
