2. Description of the Related Art Paste processing is one of the important processing methods for vinyl chloride resin. For the paste processing of vinyl chloride resin, the vinyl chloride resin produced for paste processing is mixed with a plasticizer, a stabilizer, and, if necessary, a compounding agent such as a pigment and a filler to form a liquid plastisol. A molded product is obtained by shaping a liquid plastisol by means such as casting, coating, and dipping and heating and melting and solidifying it. Therefore, the vinyl chloride resin for paste processing has a very fine particle size, disperses in the plasticizer, does not freely perform Brownian motion, and does not settle, has an appropriate particle size distribution, has a smooth surface and is dense inside. Spherical particles, that when dispersed with a plasticizer, it can be easily dispersed without agglomeration to form a stable sol, that it does not swell in the plasticizer at room temperature, its aging viscosity change is small, and it melts at high temperatures. Requires various performances such as easy and rapid gelation. Among these performance requirements, the sol dispersion property is particularly important. Vinyl chloride resin for paste processing usually has a large number of single particles agglomerated to form a resin particle powder, but in plastisol, this aggregate needs to be loosened into single particles, and if it remains as coarse particles, If it remains, it not only affects the fluidity of plastisol, but also causes troubles such as clogging during transport of plastisol and scoring during coating.
When it is used as a molded product, it causes inconveniences such as roughening of the surface of the molded product and deterioration of gloss, and further deterioration of strength of the molded product. The sol dispersion characteristics of vinyl chloride resin for paste processing are
Usually evaluated by the North Fines Gauge. In this evaluation method, the prepared plastisol is placed on the baseline of a steel gauge in which the depth of the groove changes linearly, and the sol is pulled toward the shallow side with a scraper, and the position where coarse agglomerated particles often appear is read. It is a method and the evaluation is 0
Expressed as a NF value of ~ 8. The larger the NF value, the finer the particles and the better the dispersion. However, it was not easy to obtain an NF value of 4 or more by the conventional technique. In order to improve such a problem in paste processing, there has been proposed a method in which a resin powder used for the paste is supplied as a fine powder such as a Tyler sieve 325 mesh. As a method for producing the resin for this purpose, a particle size of 0 is obtained by emulsion polymerization or fine suspension polymerization of vinyl chloride or a monomer mixture mainly composed of vinyl chloride in the presence of a radical-generating type polymerization initiator and an emulsifier. A method of obtaining an aqueous dispersion of a spherical resin having a diameter of 0.05 to 5 μm and spray-drying this aqueous dispersion has been adopted, but it has a drawback that a large amount of energy is required to evaporate and dry water. Further, since the conventional resin obtained by such a method is a fine powder, it not only causes a deterioration of the work environment such as powder scattering at the time of bag packaging of the product and bag opening and mixing at the time of plastisol production. In addition, because of poor powder fluidity, automatic weighing and automatic transportation are difficult. In order to solve the current problems of the paste processing resin, a vinyl chloride resin from an aqueous dispersion of the paste processing vinyl chloride resin is an organic solvent that is hardly soluble in water and does not dissolve or swell the vinyl chloride resin. The liquid is added to the aqueous dispersion to separate the vinyl chloride resin as an aggregate from the aqueous phase, and a method of recovering the vinyl chloride resin as it is or after granulating and drying is disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication 1-
It is proposed in Japanese Patent No. 422282. However, although this method has improved various problems,
The wet resin aggregates are strongly united after dehydration, and there are still drawbacks such as blocking in the drying process, uneven drying, poor dispersibility and generation of granular projections on the surface of molded products due to the presence of coarse particles. To do. Further, there is a drawback that the yield of the resin aggregate decreases when the amount of the organic liquid used is reduced, and it has been desired to develop a method capable of forming a vinyl chloride resin aggregate for paste processing with a small amount of the organic liquid. .

In the method of the present invention, basically, the first step of preparing an aqueous dispersion of vinyl chloride resin, the aqueous dispersion obtained in the first step are introduced into a batch-type tank mixer, and 100 at 30 ° C. From the second step of adding an organic liquid having a viscosity of not less than 1000 centipoise and not more than 1000 centipoise and finely dispersed in water, an aqueous dispersion of a vinyl chloride resin aggregate,
It comprises a third step of separating and collecting the vinyl chloride resin aggregate, and a fourth step of drying the collected vinyl chloride resin aggregate. The aqueous dispersion of the vinyl chloride resin for paste processing used in the present invention is mainly composed of vinyl chloride homopolymer produced by ordinary emulsion polymerization or fine suspension polymerization, or vinyl chloride (usually 70% by weight). Above) copolymer, for example, an aqueous dispersion of a copolymer of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate, vinylidene chloride, ethylene, propylene, butene, acrylonitrile, acrylic acid ester, methacrylic acid ester or a monomer such as maleic acid That is, any material that can be used for ordinary paste processing can be used without particular limitation. The aqueous dispersion of vinyl chloride resin used in the present invention usually contains about 10 to 70% by weight of vinyl chloride resin. As such an aqueous dispersion, an aqueous dispersion of a vinyl chloride resin after completion of polymerization may be used as it is, or may be partially dehydrated or water may be added if necessary.
If the content of vinyl chloride resin is less than 10% by weight, the amount of wastewater is too large compared to the product amount and it is uneconomical. If the content of vinyl chloride resin exceeds 70% by weight, the aqueous dispersion and the organic liquid are The viscosity of the mixed solution of (1) remarkably increases, which makes operation difficult.

In the method of the present invention, it is an organic liquid which is sparingly soluble in water and does not dissolve or swell the vinyl chloride resin during separation and recovery of the vinyl chloride resin, and at 30 ° C.
In the above, a material having a viscosity of 100 to 1,000 centipoise, preferably 150 to 500 centipoise is used. A vinyl chloride resin aggregate obtained by using an organic liquid having a viscosity of less than 100 centipoise at 30 ° C. is not preferable because it does not have sufficient disentangling property when plastisol and does not have satisfactory dispersibility. On the other hand, the viscosity at 30 ° C is 100
The use of an organic liquid exceeding 0 centipoise is not preferable because it is not possible to obtain a granular resin in the form of a uniform aggregate from an aqueous dispersion of a vinyl chloride resin. The organic liquid used in the method of the present invention has a viscosity at 30 ° C. of 100 centipoises or more and 1000 centipoises or less, preferably 150 centipoises or more and 500 centipoises or less, and is sparingly soluble in water, and a vinyl chloride resin from an aqueous dispersion. It can be used without particular limitation as long as it does not dissolve or swell the vinyl chloride resin at the temperature for separation treatment, for example, ditridecyl phthalate, trioctyl trimellitate, triisodecyl trimellitate, diisodecyl epoxyhexahydrophthalate and the like. Can be mentioned. Further, epoxy plasticizers such as epoxidized soybean oil having suitable viscosity and properties and satisfying the above conditions can be suitably used in the method of the present invention.

In the method of the present invention, the organic liquid is used by being finely dispersed in water in the form of oil drops in water. The organic liquid used in the method of the present invention has a viscosity of 100 at 30 ° C.
Since it is not less than 1000 centipoise and not more than 1000 centipoise, and has a high viscosity as compared with the viscosity of the aqueous dispersion of vinyl chloride resin, it is possible to disperse the vinyl chloride resin in the aqueous dispersion by making it finely dispersed in advance. It is possible to prevent the above, and to disperse evenly, and it is possible to exert an effect in forming an aggregate of the vinyl chloride resin. Anionic or nonionic surfactants can be added to aid the fine dispersion of the organic liquid in water. The amount of these surfactants added is appropriately about 0.5 to 10% by weight with respect to the organic liquid. Further, for finely dispersing the organic liquid in water, a means such as a high-speed stirrer, a vibration stirrer, or an ultrasonic stirrer can be used. In the method of the present invention, the organic liquid is used in a finely dispersed state having an average droplet diameter of 10 to 100 μm. If the average droplet diameter exceeds 100 μm, the organic liquid is unevenly distributed, and the object of the present invention cannot be achieved. Further, even if the average droplet diameter is smaller than 10 μm, there is no advantage corresponding to the energy input for that purpose. The organic liquid used to separate the vinyl chloride resin as an aggregate from the aqueous dispersion of the vinyl chloride resin generally has a melting point of 20 ° C. or lower and a boiling point at atmospheric pressure of the temperature at which the vinyl chloride resin is separated and recovered. The temperature is preferably 200 ° C. or higher, but the organic liquid having a viscosity used in the method of the present invention substantially satisfies these conditions.

The organic liquid used in the present invention is required to be sparingly soluble in water for the following two reasons. First,
After mixing with the aqueous dispersion, the amount of entrainment in the aqueous phase to be separated is reduced to prevent the loss of organic liquid and reduce the wastewater treatment cost. This is because it is necessary for the organic liquid to exist on the particle surface between the resin particles and water in order to collect the vinyl resin particles via the organic liquid. Further, when the organic liquid used in the present invention dissolves or swells the resin at the temperature at the time of separation and recovery in the present invention, the resin particles are deformed and deteriorated, which is inconvenient. Since most of the organic liquid used in the present invention remains in the product resin,
Items that adversely affect the operability and processability during paste processing and the quality of molded products must be avoided. From the above points, it is most natural and rational to use the liquid compounding agent which is usually used for paste processing as the organic liquid. The amount of the organic liquid used in the method of the present invention is 0.1 to 5 parts by weight, preferably 1 to 3 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the vinyl chloride resin. When the amount of the organic liquid used is less than 0.1 part by weight, the formation of the vinyl chloride resin aggregate in the aqueous dispersion is insufficient, and when the amount of the organic liquid used exceeds 5 parts by weight, it is transported by air. The vinyl chloride resin powder adheres to the duct, and the vinyl chloride resin aggregate becomes hard, so that the dispersibility becomes poor at the time of preparing the paste, which is not preferable.

In the method of the present invention, a batch type tank mixer can be preferably used for mixing the aqueous dispersion of the vinyl chloride resin for paste processing and the organic liquid. As the batch type tank mixer, a known mixer having a stirrer or a baffle plate is used. Since the degree of mixing has a great influence on the collection efficiency of the vinyl chloride resin with the organic liquid, the mixing power per unit volume of the mixer is preferably 1 kW / m 3 or more, and the product with the mixing time is 4 kW. It is preferably Hr / m 3 or more. In the method of the present invention, in a batch tank mixer, a mixed liquid of an aqueous dispersion of vinyl chloride resin and an organic liquid is usually 20 to 70 ° C., and the organic liquid used does not dissolve or swell the vinyl chloride resin. Stirring is carried out at a temperature, but the vinyl chloride resin is more likely to be swollen by the organic liquid as the temperature rises, so stirring and mixing at 50 ° C. or lower is advantageous. If this temperature exceeds 70 ° C, not only the absorption of the organic liquid into the vinyl chloride resin is accelerated,
The vinyl chloride resin may soften and coalesce and the final product may no longer be compatible with paste processing. By such an operation, the particle diameter is 50 to 500 μm, the average is 100 to 300.
It is possible to form a granular aggregate of μm. next,
In order to separate and collect the vinyl chloride resin aggregate aggregated through the organic liquid from the aqueous phase, a known method according to the shape of the aggregate, for example, vacuum dehydration using a filter cloth, a wire net, etc. by utilizing the difference in particle size. Method, centrifugal dehydration method, or centrifugal sedimentation separation method utilizing difference in specific gravity can be used.

Manufacturing method. The vinyl chloride resin aggregate separated in the separation step is
Next, it is sent to a drying process to remove the attached water. In this drying step, it is necessary to set conditions that do not impair the dispersibility during paste processing. That is, the temperature of the vinyl chloride resin during the drying step is usually 70 ° C. or lower,
The temperature is preferably 50 ° C or lower. That is, the conditions are selected so that the granularity in a state close to the particle size distribution of the formed vinyl chloride resin aggregate is reproduced. As a drying device, it is preferable to use a reduced pressure stirring dryer in order to keep the temperature of the material to be dried low.Moreover, if the particle size of the resin is relatively uniform, low temperature drying, in order to improve the operating efficiency, flow A floor dryer is suitable, but widely known dryers can be used. In the drying process, it is possible to obtain a resin with an indeterminate shape or a wide particle size distribution as a product by selecting an appropriate device, but by incorporating a pellet forming machine such as an extrusion-type granulator in the process, particles can be obtained. It is also possible to homogenize the shape. Also in this case, the resin should not be melted or absorb the organic liquid due to heat or pressure during granulation, and the dispersibility during paste kneading should not be impaired.
