Description

Detailed Description of the Invention [0001] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a thermoplastic resin composition containing a polypropylene resin and a polystyrene resin. The present invention relates to a thermoplastic resin composition containing a polypropylene resin having good mechanical strength such as impact resistance and flexural modulus, and a polystyrene resin. [Prior Art] Polypropylene resin has mechanical strength,
It has excellent moldability and chemical resistance, and is widely used in various industrial fields such as inner and outer layer parts of automobiles, home appliance parts, and housings. However, since polypropylene is a non-polar polymer, it has difficulties in secondary processability, particularly in solid phase adhesion and paintability. As a method of modifying such polypropylene, blending polystyrene resin with good paintability into polypropylene has been carried out. However, in addition to being easy to paint, polystyrene resin
Although it has high rigidity and good dimensional stability, it does not have good compatibility with polypropylene, so there is a problem that the physical properties deteriorate significantly. [0003] Therefore, various compositions have been proposed in which a compatibilizer is added to a composition of polypropylene and polystyrene resin for the purpose of improving the compatibility thereof (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 87645/1983). No., Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-1745
No. 50). [0004] However, all of the above compositions contain a styrene-nonconjugated diene block copolymer or the like as a compatibilizing agent between the polypropylene resin and the polystyrene resin. However, since it is difficult to sufficiently compatibilize polypropylene and polystyrene with the compatibilizing agent described above, there is a problem that the impact resistance, mechanical strength, surface peeling resistance of the molded article, etc. are not necessarily sufficient. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a thermoplastic resin composition of polypropylene resin/polystyrene resin that has excellent impact resistance, mechanical strength, and molding processability, and also suppresses surface peeling of molded products. It is to provide. [Means for Solving the Problems] In view of the above problems, as a result of intensive research, the present inventors have discovered that unsaturated carbon dioxide is used as the polypropylene resin in a composition containing a polypropylene resin and a polystyrene resin. If polypropylene containing a certain amount of polypropylene modified with an acid or its anhydride is used, and a predetermined amount of a polystyrene copolymer modified with an epoxy group-containing monomer is added as a compatibilizer, surface peeling of the molded product can be suppressed. They discovered that a material with excellent mechanical properties could be obtained, and came up with the present invention. That is, the thermoplastic resin composition of the present invention comprises (a) 5 to 98% by weight of a polypropylene resin containing 1% by weight or more of polypropylene modified with an unsaturated carboxylic acid or its anhydride, and (b) polystyrene. (c) polystyrene copolymer 2 modified with an epoxy group-containing monomer, based on 95 to 2% by weight of the polypropylene resin and 100 parts by weight of the above (a) polypropylene resin and (b) polystyrene resin. ~100 parts by weight. The present invention will be explained in detail below. In the present invention, (a) the polypropylene resin contains 1% by weight of polypropylene modified with an unsaturated carboxylic acid or its anhydride.
This is polypropylene containing the above. In the above-mentioned modified polypropylene, the polypropylene to be modified is a crystalline polymer polymerized with propylene monomer as a main component, and includes block copolymers or random copolymers of propylene and other α-olefins such as ethylene. Especially propylene
Ethylene random copolymers are preferred. In the case of a random copolymer with ethylene, the ethylene content is preferably 1 to 10% by weight. Such polypropylene is usually 0.0
Melt flow rate (MFR) of 1 to 100 g/10 minutes
, JISK7210, load 2.16kg, 230℃
). A propylene random copolymer (hereinafter referred to as PPDM) containing a non-conjugated diene comonomer may also be used. As explained above, the term "polypropylene" used herein is not limited to homopolymers of propylene, but should be understood to include each of the above-mentioned copolymers. Examples of the unsaturated carboxylic acid or anhydride thereof as a monomer for modification include monocarboxylic acids such as acrylic acid and methacrylic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid,
Itaconic acid, endo-bicyclo-[2,2,1]-5
Dicarboxylic acids such as -heptene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid, maleic anhydride, itaconic anhydride, endo-bicyclo-[2,2,1]-5-heptene-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride (himic anhydride) ) and the like, and dicarboxylic acids and their anhydrides are particularly preferred. The polypropylene modified with an unsaturated carboxylic acid or its anhydride may be a block copolymer, a graft copolymer, a random copolymer or an alternating copolymer. The content of the unsaturated carboxylic acid or its anhydride in the modified polypropylene is preferably within the range of 0.01 to 10% by weight, specifically,
In the case of modification with maleic anhydride, the content of maleic anhydride is 0.1 to 10% by weight, more preferably 0.
．． The content should be 2 to 10% by weight, and when Himic acid anhydride is used, the content should be 0.1 to 10% by weight, more preferably 0.2 to 10% by weight. If the amount of modification by maleic anhydride and himic acid anhydride is less than the above lower limit, there will be no sufficient effect on improving the compatibility between polypropylene resin and polystyrene resin, and if it exceeds the upper limit, mechanical strength will decrease. do. [0015] Modified polypropylene can be produced by either a solution method or a melt-kneading method. In the case of the melt-kneading method, the polyolefin, unsaturated carboxylic acid for modification (or acid anhydride), and catalyst are put into an extruder or twin-screw kneader, etc.
The mixture is heated to a temperature of 150 to 250°C and kneaded while melting. In the case of a solution method, the starting material is dissolved in an organic solvent such as xylene, and the solution is stirred at a temperature of 80 to 140°C. In either case, a normal radical polymerization catalyst can be used as a catalyst, such as benzoyl peroxide,
lauroyl peroxide, ditertiary butyl peroxide, acetyl peroxide, tertiary butyl peroxybenzoic acid,
Dicumyl peroxide, peroxybenzoic acid, peroxyacetic acid, tert-butyl peroxypivalate, 2,5-
Peroxides such as dimethyl-2,5-ditertiarybutylperoxyhexine and diazo compounds such as azobisisobutyronitrile are preferred. The amount of the catalyst added is about 1 to 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the unsaturated carboxylic acid for modification or its anhydride. The content of the above-mentioned modified polypropylene in the polypropylene resin is 1% by weight or more based on 100% by weight of the polypropylene resin (a). If the content of the modified polypropylene is less than 1% by weight, there is no sufficient effect in improving the compatibility between the polypropylene resin and the polystyrene resin. Moreover, if it exceeds 90% by weight, the melt flow rate increases too much. The preferred content of modified polypropylene is about 3 to 60% by weight. However, the entire polypropylene resin is 10
It is preferable that the content of the unsaturated carboxylic acid or its anhydride is 0.005% by weight or more. If the content of the unsaturated carboxylic acid or its anhydride is less than 0.005% by weight based on the entire polypropylene resin, there is no sufficient effect in improving the compatibility between the polypropylene resin and the polystyrene resin. [0018] In the polypropylene resin, polypropylene other than modified polypropylene is not particularly limited as long as it is a polymer containing propylene as a main component;
It may also be copolymerized with other α-olefins such as ethylene, butene, 4-methylpentene-1, etc. up to about % by weight. The copolymer may be either a random copolymer or a block copolymer. Further, a copolymer rubber of two or more α-olefins such as ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, 1-hexene, 4-methyl-pentene, or α-
It may contain up to about 40% by weight of an olefin thermoplastic elastomer such as a copolymer rubber of olefin and other monomers. The copolymer rubber of two or more α-olefins typically includes ethylene-propylene copolymer rubber (EPR), ethylene-butene copolymer rubber (EBR), and ethylene-propylene copolymer rubber (EBR). Examples include propylene-diene copolymer rubber (EPDM). The melt flow rate (MFR, 230° C., 2.16 kg load) of such polypropylene resin is preferably 0.1 to 100 g/10 minutes. If the melt flow rate is less than 1 g/10 minutes, the moldability of the resulting thermoplastic resin composition will be poor, and
If it exceeds g/10 minutes, impact resistance will decrease, which is not preferable. In the present invention, the polystyrene resin (b) is a homopolymerized styrene monomer;
Alternatively, it may be copolymerized with about 5 to 50% by weight of other monomers. As a comonomer for copolymerization,
Examples include α-methylstyrene, acrylonitrile, maleic anhydride, methyl methacrylate, and the like. Further, rubber-modified polystyrene obtained by emulsion polymerizing about 10 to 30% by weight of a rubbery polymer such as polybutadiene or butadiene-styrene copolymer to styrene can also be used. Furthermore, polyphenylene ether resin is about 1 to 99% by weight, assuming that polystyrene is 100% by weight.
(PPO) can also be used. The above polyphenylene ether resin is represented by the following general formula (1). [Formula 2] (wherein, R1 and R2 are an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, an aryl group having 4 to 8 carbon atoms, a halogen atom, or a hydrogen atom, and may be the same or different, n
represents a number from 50 to 500. ) Such polyphenylene ether resins include, for example, poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene) ether, poly(2,6-diethyl-1,
4-phenylene) ether, poly(2-methyl-6
-ethyl-1,4-phenylene) ether, poly(2

, 4-phenylene) ether and the like. Melt index of polystyrene resin as described above (MI: 190°C, 2.16 kg load)
is preferably about 0.5 to 20 g/10 minutes. The blending ratio of (a) polypropylene resin and (b) polystyrene resin as described above is (
When a) + (b) is 100% by weight, (a) is 5
-98% by weight, preferably 10-90% by weight, (
b) 95-2% by weight, preferably 90-10% by weight
It is. (a) If the polypropylene resin is less than 5% by weight (if (b) exceeds 95% by weight), the mechanical strength, moldability, chemical resistance, etc., which are the characteristics of polypropylene, will decrease; If the amount of the resin exceeds 98% by weight (if (b) is less than 2% by weight), the effect of improving the rigidity by the posttyrene resin will not be sufficient. In the present invention, in (c) a polystyrene copolymer modified with an epoxy group-containing monomer, the polystyrene copolymer refers to a copolymer consisting of a polystyrene part and a polyolefin part, or a hydrogenated product thereof. These may be either block or graft copolymers depending on the type of polyolefin to be copolymerized. Examples of such polystyrene copolymers include styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer (SBS), styrene-isoprene-styrene block copolymer (SIS), and styrene-hydrogenated isoprene-based copolymer.
Styrene block copolymer (SEPS), styrene-hydrogenated butadiene-styrene block copolymer (SEBS)
) etc. Among the above polystyrene copolymers, styrene-hydrogenated isoprene-styrene block copolymer (SEPS) and styrene-hydrogenated butadiene-styrene block copolymer (SEBS) are particularly preferred in terms of weather resistance. preferable. The above styrene-hydrogenated isoprene-styrene block copolymer (SEPS) has the following general formula (2).
It is expressed by (S-EP)n-Sm...
・(2) (In the formula, S represents a polystyrene moiety, EP represents a hydrogenated polyisoprene moiety (ethylene/propylene moiety), n is an integer from 1 to 20, and m is 0 or 1.) The above-mentioned styrene-hydrogenated isoprene-styrene block copolymer is a two block type (SEP when n=1 and m=0), a three block type (SEP when n=1 and m=1), and a three block type (SEP when n=1 and m=1). (in the case of n = 2 to 20), and a multi-block type (in the case of n = 2 to 20), but any of them can be used in the present invention. The above-mentioned styrene-hydrogenated isoprene-styrene block copolymer is prepared by subjecting the styrene-isoprene-styrene block copolymer to 25 to By hydrogenating at a temperature of 175°C, only the isoprene portion is selectively hydrogenated, resulting in a structure corresponding to an ethylene-propylene copolymer. [0033] In the above styrene-hydrogenated isoprene-styrene block copolymer, it is not necessary that all of the isoprene portion is hydrogenated, as long as 5% or more is hydrogenated. The preferred hydrogenation ratio is 50% or more, more preferably 80% or more. The styrene-hydrogenated isoprene-styrene block copolymer has been explained above, but the styrene-hydrogenated isoprene-styrene block copolymer
Hydrogenated butadiene-styrene block copolymer (SEB
S) is the same as in the above explanation except that isoprene is replaced with butadiene. In the present invention, the content of the styrene moiety in such a polystyrene copolymer is from 40 to 95% by weight, preferably from 40 to 80% by weight. If the styrene portion is less than 40% by weight, the effect of improving the compatibility between (a) polypropylene resin and (b) polystyrene resin will not be sufficient, while if it exceeds 95% by weight, it will become brittle. [0036] In the polystyrene copolymer, the styrene portion is not limited to only styrene, but may also be composed of substituted styrene such as methylstyrene. The weight average molecular weight of such a polystyrene copolymer is preferably from 2 x 104 to 50 x 104, particularly preferably from 5 x 104 to 35 x 104. If the weight average molecular weight is less than 2 x 104, the melt viscosity is too low;
On the other hand, if it exceeds 50×10 4 , the melt viscosity becomes too high and moldability deteriorates, which is not preferable. Examples of epoxy group-containing monomers that modify such polystyrene copolymers include glycidyl methacrylate and glycidyl acrylate. Furthermore, the following general formula (3): [Formula 3] (wherein, R is H or an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms,

Preferred glycidyl compounds include those represented by the following general formula (4). ##STR4## (In the formula, R is H or an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms.) Such a glycidyl compound can be prepared, for example, by the following method shown in JP-A-60-130580. It can be manufactured by First, at least one phenolic hydroxyl group

Examples include bisphenols such as hydroxyphenyl and methane. Next, by glycidylating the hydroxyl group of the compound represented by the above general formula (5), the general formula (3) is obtained.
A glycidyl compound represented by can be obtained. For this glycidylation, it is preferable to perform an addition reaction between the compound represented by the general formula (5) and epihalohydrin, and then perform dehydrohalogenation using a caustic alkali. The addition reaction with epihalohydrin is carried out using a phase transfer catalyst. The epihalohydrin mentioned above is
Epichlorohydrin, epibromohydrin, epiiodohydrin, etc. can be used. Examples of phase transfer catalysts include quaternary ammonium salts such as tetrabutylammonium bromide, trioctylmethylammonium chloride, benzyltriethylammonium chloride, and quaternary phosphonium salts such as tetraphenylphosphonium chloride and triphenylmethylphosphonium chloride. Salt etc. can be used. The amount of the phase transfer catalyst used is determined by the general formula (5
) as 100 mol%, 0.0
It is preferably used in a range of 1 to 100 mol%. A particularly preferred amount of phase transfer catalyst used is 0.05 to 10 mol%. In addition, the reaction time and reaction temperature are 50 to 120

It takes 10 to 30 minutes. Subsequently, dehydrohalogenation is carried out using caustic alkali. The above caustic alkali includes caustic soda,
Caustic potash, lithium hydroxide, etc. can be used. These can be used as solids or as aqueous solutions. Further, as a catalyst for dehydrohalogenation, the same one as the above-mentioned phase transfer catalyst can be used. Catalysts other than the above phase transfer catalysts include crown ethers,
Examples include ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like. The amount of the caustic alkali used is determined by the general formula (5
) It is preferred to use equimolar amounts with respect to the compound represented by. More preferably, 1.1 to 1.5 times the molar amount is used. In addition, the reaction time and reaction temperature are 20 to 90°C for 10 minutes to 30 minutes.
The time is preferably 30 minutes to 2 hours at 40 to 70°C. Modification of the polystyrene copolymer with such an epoxy group-containing monomer may be carried out by graft polymerization or copolymerization. In the case of graft polymerization, first, a polystyrene copolymer, an epoxy group-containing monomer for modification, and a catalyst if necessary are put into an extruder or twin-screw kneader, etc.

Peroxides such as ditertiary-butylperoxyhexine and diazo compounds such as azobisisobutyronitrile are preferred. The amount of the catalyst added is about 0.01 to 3 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the polystyrene copolymer. Furthermore, a phenolic antioxidant can be added during the graft reaction, but it is preferable not to add it if a radical polymerization catalyst is not added.

[Function] The thermoplastic resin composition of the present invention is a composition containing a polypropylene resin and a polystyrene resin, and contains a certain amount of polypropylene modified with an unsaturated carboxylic acid or its anhydride as the polypropylene resin. The molded product has excellent mechanical properties and suppresses surface peeling due to the addition of a predetermined amount of polystyrene copolymer modified with an epoxy group-containing monomer as a compatibilizer. . The reason why such an effect is obtained is not necessarily clear, but the polystyrene copolymer modified with the epoxy group-containing monomer is compatible with the polystyrene resin and grafts with the modified polypropylene in the polypropylene resin. This is thought to be because it forms a copolymer and thus exhibits an excellent function as a compatibilizer between polypropylene resin and polystyrene resin.

Furthermore, the thermoplastic resin compositions of Comparative Examples 2 to 6 had poor surface peeling resistance. Effects of the Invention As detailed above, the thermoplastic resin composition of the present invention is a composition containing a polypropylene resin and a polystyrene resin, in which an unsaturated carboxylic acid or an unsaturated carboxylic acid is used as the polypropylene resin.
