The present invention relates to an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin composition that can be used for films, sheets, blow molding materials, etc. Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (hereinafter referred to as EVA) film has excellent transparency, gloss, flexibility, impact strength, weather resistance, and low-temperature heat sealability. It is conceivable to blend EVA with polyolefins such as low-density polyethylene or cotton-like low-density polyethylene in order to take advantage of the above-mentioned properties of EVA while also adding other properties such as heat resistance and film stiffness. . However, a film made by blending EVA and polyolefin has a drawback of poor transparency, probably due to the compatibility between EVA having a polar group and non-polar polyolefin. In particular, a film made by blending EVA with a vinyl acetate content of 10% by weight or more and polyolefin has extremely poor transparency. This has a vinyl acetate content of 10% by weight
This is thought to be because the EVA described above has particularly poor compatibility with polyolefins. Therefore, if the vinyl acetate content is 10% by weight or more,
Even if an attempt is made to achieve the above objective by blending EVA and polyolefin, the vinyl acetate content actually decreases.
It was not possible to use more than 100% EVA by weight. The present invention has a vinyl acetate content of 10% by weight or more.
Even when EVA is used with polyolefin, the deterioration of film transparency is suppressed, and the properties of EVA film, such as transparency, gloss, flexibility, impact strength, weather resistance, and low-temperature heat sealability, are maintained. As a result of extensive research into compositions that can produce ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer films that have other properties such as excellent heat resistance and film stiffness, we found that the vinyl acetate content was 10% by weight.
It was found that deterioration of transparency can be suppressed by adding EVA having a vinyl acetate content of 10% by weight or less as an intermediate material based on the above EVA, and based on this, the present invention was completed. That is, the present invention provides a composition comprising an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer having a vinyl acetate content of 10% by weight or more and low-density polyethylene or cotton-like low-density polyethylene, and ethylene having a vinyl acetate content of 4 to 8% by weight. - According to the present invention, a resin composition containing a vinyl acetate copolymer suppresses deterioration of transparency and has properties such as heat resistance and film stiffness while taking advantage of the above-mentioned properties of EVA. A film was obtained. Furthermore, by taking advantage of similar properties, we were able to provide a resin composition suitable for use as sheets, blow molding materials, and the like. Vinyl acetate content used in the present invention is 10% by weight
It is appropriate that the above EVA [hereinafter referred to as EVA (1)] has a melt index of 20 g/10 minutes or less, preferably 10 g/10 minutes or less. In addition, the vinyl acetate content used in the present invention is as described above.
EVA (hereinafter referred to as EVA(2)) smaller than EVA(1) is
Suitably, the vinyl acetate content is between 4 and 8% by weight. In the present invention, the above EVA (2) is added to a composition consisting of the above EVA (1) and low density polyethylene (hereinafter referred to as LDPE) or cotton-like low density polyethylene (hereinafter referred to as LLDPE). An appropriate blend ratio of the three components is EVA (1)
40% by weight or more preferably 40-85% by weight, EVA
(2) 40% by weight or less, preferably 5 to 30% by weight,
LDPE, LLDPE 40% by weight or less, preferably 10~
35% by weight is suitable. Other additives such as fillers may be added to the compositions of the invention. The blending method is not particularly limited and can be selected as appropriate by those skilled in the art. The resin composition of the present invention can be suitably used, for example, as a heat-resistant agricultural film, taking advantage of its characteristic of improving transparency without impairing heat resistance. It can also be suitably used for multilayer films with good transparency. In addition to films, when used as sheets, blow molding materials, etc., molded products such as sheet-like products and blow molded products with excellent transparency and heat resistance and firmness can be obtained. Next, the present invention will be explained using examples. Example 1 EVA (1) and EVA (2) having the vinyl acetate content and melt index shown in Table 1 and LLDPE were blended using a Henschel mixer at the blend ratio shown in the same table, and the following 0.05m thickness (t) under conditions
An ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer film having a width of 230 mm (w) was molded. Film forming conditions 50φ extruder Die diameter 100φ Lip 0.8mm Take-up speed 20m/min C 1 130℃ C 2 140℃ C 3 =C 4 160℃ Head=Die 160℃ The above three-component composition and the composition Table 2 shows the results of measuring the physical properties of the film. Example 2 EVA (1), EVA (2), and LDPE having the vinyl acetate content and melt index shown in Table 1 were blended in the same manner as in Example 1 at the blend ratio shown in the same table, and the following conditions were applied. An ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer film of 0.03 m thickness (t) x 160 mm width (w) was molded below. Film molding conditions: 40φ extruder, die diameter: 50φ, take-up speed: 20m/min C 1 130℃ C 2 C 3 = C 4 140℃ Head=Die 135℃ Physical property measurement results of the above three-component composition and a film made from the composition are shown in Table 2. Comparative Example 1 With the blend ratio shown in Table 1, the melt index was 2.3 g/10 min, and the vinyl acetate content was 13.4 wt%.
A film was molded in the same manner as in Example 1 except that EVA (1) and LLDPE were blended. Table 2 shows the results of measuring the physical properties of the blend and molded film. Comparative Example 2 EVA(1) and EVA(2) having the vinyl acetate content and melt index shown in Table 1 and LLDPE were blended in the same manner as in Example 1 at the blending ratio shown in the same table, and 0.005 mmt. ×230mmw film was molded. Table 2 shows the results of measuring the physical properties of the blend and molded film. Comparative Example 3 With the blend ratio shown in Table 1, the melt index was 2.2 g/10 min, and the vinyl acetate content was 13.5 wt%.
EVA (1) and melt index 3.0g/10 minutes
A film was molded in the same manner as in Comparative Example 1 except that it was blended with LDPE. Table 2 shows the results of measuring the physical properties of the blend and molded film. Example 3 Example 2 except that the blend ratio shown in Table 1 was used.
An ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer film was molded in the same manner as described above. The physical property measurement results of the composition and molded film were
