The present invention relates to a resin composition for backing carpets laid on automobile floors and the like. Conventionally, one of the methods for backing automotive carpets is to use low-density polyethylene (hereinafter referred to as low-density polyethylene).
There was a method of extruding LDPE (LDPE) using a T-die and pressing it onto the back of the carpet using a laminating roll. In this case, the basis weight of LDPE is usually 200 to 650.
g/m 2 range. Carpets backed by this method had the following problems. In other words, due to the high rigidity of the backing layer, the cushioning properties when laid on the floor are poor, and related to this, when the weight of the backing layer is increased for the purpose of improving sound insulation, the rigidity becomes too high, and in fact It becomes unusable. Furthermore, it is difficult to incorporate fillers into LDPE, which increases the cost. That is, the filler was unevenly distributed within the LDPE, resulting in avatars and other defects. practically
It is impossible to incorporate more than 30% filler in terms of strength. As a method other than the above, there is a method of improving the above-mentioned drawbacks and using a material having the following composition in place of the conventional LDPE. The material is a mixture of an ethylene copolymer such as ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, calcium carbonate as a filler, and a low molecular weight resin such as atactic polypropylene or paraffin wax as a binder. This material is effective and can maintain good stiffness and pile removal strength, especially when the basis weight of the backing layer is set to 1 Kg/m 2 or more to improve sound insulation. However, in the case of a bucking basis weight of less than 1 Kg/m 2 , there are disadvantages in that heat resistance is insufficient and flexibility is too high, making it difficult to place on the floor. The object of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, and to disperse the filler in the resin by blending low-density polyethylene, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer or graft copolymer, and inorganic filler in the required proportions. This reduces the cost of backing agents, and also increases the backing weight from 200 to 1000.
An object of the present invention is to provide a carpet backing resin composition for a vehicle, in which the hardness of a backing material is adjusted so as to provide the carpet with optimum stiffness in the case of 1.5 g/m 2 . The formulation of the composition of the present invention is as follows. (a) Low density polyethylene (LDPE)...100 parts by weight To maintain workability during bucking
Melt index according to JISK6760 (hereinafter referred to as M.
I.) ranges from 10 to 50. (b) Ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (hereinafter referred to as EVA)...15 to 60 parts by weight From the viewpoint of processability, the MI is set in the range of 10 to 75, and the ratio of MI to LDPE is 1:1.5 to 1.5: 1 is necessary for uniform mixing. (c) Inorganic filler...30 to 200 parts by weight Calcium carbonate, barium sulfate, mica, talc, aluminum hydroxide, etc. can be used as the inorganic filler. (iv) Binder: 0 to 20 parts by weight Low molecular weight resins such as atactic polypropylene and paraffin wax, as well as plasticizers, flame retardants, antistatic agents, coloring pigments, etc. are mixed as necessary. There are various methods for mixing the composition of the present invention, but for example, EVA and the inorganic filler are pelletized in advance, or the inorganic filler is solidified into granules with a binder in advance. EVA
There is a method in which the mixture is made into pellets, then dry blended with LDPE, extruded into a film using a T-die, and used for carpet backing. The carpet backing resin composition for vehicles of the present invention described above has an MI of 10 to 50.
LDPE and EVA with MI of 10 to 75 are
Since the MI is mixed at a ratio of 1:1.5 to 1.5:1, the following effects are brought about. (1) Since LDPE and EVA each have a relatively high MI, it is easy to uniformly mix inorganic fillers. (2) The MI ratio of LDPE and EVA is 1:1.5~
Since the ratio is controlled to 1.5:1, it is easier to mix the filler more uniformly. Here, the term "easy uniform mixing" means, for example, that the power required for the extruder screw when extruding a dry blended resin composition into a film through a T-die is relatively small, and that the MI ratio is also similar. Therefore, kneading in the extruder is easy, and furthermore, the resulting product does not produce avada or other defects. Furthermore, depending on the purpose of mixing EVA and inorganic fillers, it is possible to use a smaller amount or mix a larger amount, and each has a large economic effect. (3) In addition, if EVA and inorganic filler are pelletized in advance, or if the inorganic filler is pre-hardened into granules with a binder and then pelletized with EVA and then dry blended with LDPE, the above Uniform mixing can be carried out more easily. Next, examples of the present invention and comparative examples will be shown, and the two will be compared and evaluated. Example 1 Compound LDPE with MI of 35...100 parts by weight EVA with MI of 50...30 Calcium carbonate...70 EVA and calcium carbonate were pelletized in advance and dry blended with LDPE. 350 g/m 2 of this was applied to the back side of a tufted carpet with a pile weight of 650 g/m 2 . Example 2 Compound LDPE with MI of 35...100 parts by weight EVA with MI of 25...30 Calcium carbonate...70 Atactic polypropylene...7 EVA, calcium carbonate, and atactic polypropylene were pelletized in advance. Then, as in the example, 350 g/m 2 was applied to the back side of the carpet. Comparative Example 1 Mixture: LDPE with MI of 20...100 parts by weight.
g/m 2 was applied. Comparative Example 2 EVA with a compound MI of 20...30 parts by weight of calcium carbonate...70 Atactic polypropylene...7 This was applied to the same carpet as in Example 1 at 350 g/m 2
I was defeated. The above Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were evaluated and compared using the following evaluation items. Comparative Example 3 Compound LDPE with MI of 35...100 parts by weight EVA with MI of 15...30 Calcium carbonate...70 Atactic polypropylene...7 EVA, calcium carbonate, and atactic polypropylene are pelletized in advance. As in the example, 350 g/m 2 of the solution was applied to the back of the carpet. Evaluation item 1 Bending rigidity Take 5 specimens each with a length of 200 mm and a width of 25 mm from the vertical and horizontal directions, and place them on a horizontal table with a 45° slope at one end and a smooth surface, with the backing layer facing down. Then place it about 10cm in the direction of the slope.
Slide the specimen at a speed of sec, and when one end of the specimen touches the slope, read the distance traveled by the other end. 2 Pile pull-out strength Fix a test piece of an appropriate size on a flat table, grab a bundle of piles with a crocodile clamp, and pull strongly with a spring school (0 to 5 kg) to reduce the load required for the pile to pull out. Measure. 3. Moldability When molding a packed carpet to match the floor of an automobile, evaluation is made based on tearing, wrinkles, and return of the carpet after molding. Table 1 shows the results of this evaluation.

[Table] In Table 1, the bending rigidity of Comparative Example 1 is higher than that of Examples 1 and 2 of the present invention. This indicates that the cushioning properties of the carpet are poor. Further, in Example 1, the cost is high because LDPE is used alone and no filler is used. On the other hand, Comparative Example 2 is inferior to Examples 1 and 2 of the present invention in pile drafting strength and formability. The effects of the present invention will be explained as follows. In other words, it is impossible to mix fillers such as calcium carbonate into LDPE because of poor dispersion, but in the present invention, since EVA is mixed with fillers such as calcium carbonate in advance, its dispersion is difficult. is good. Therefore, since the filler can be mixed in at a constant rate, it is possible to reduce the material cost of the backing resin. Furthermore, in the present invention, since the main components are composed of fillers such as LDPE, EVA, and calcium carbonate, the carpet of the final product has an optimal bending stiffness (if the stiffness is too high, the cushioning properties will be poor; (If it is small, the work of attaching it to the body will be reduced), good pile drafting strength, and good formability.
