この発明は熱収縮性を有する架橋ポリエチレンシートの
製造方法に存するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention resides in a method for producing a heat-shrinkable crosslinked polyethylene sheet.

ている。Recently, heat-shrinkable polyethylene molded products have been widely used for purposes such as corrosion protection for cable connections and steel pipes. As shown in Figure 1, a cross-linked polyethylene sheet laminate having ribs 2tl-- parallel to the main body and inwardly protruding at both ends of the sheet main body 1 is made, and stretched in the direction of the arrow, that is, in the width direction of the sheet main body 10 (imaginary line). After rolling it up as shown in Figure 2, the ribs 2 at both ends of the sheet main body 1 are brought together, and the molded body is constructed by fitting and integrating the ribs 2 at both ends of the sheet body 1 from the outside with clips 3. Books have appeared that have heat-shrinkability in the radial direction due to the memory recovery effect of the sheets and can be freely disassembled using clips.

れていた。Another way to make a similar product is to make a cross-linked polyethylene pipe 1' having a pair of protrusions 2' that serve as ribs, as shown in Figure 3, and apply fluid pressure from inside the pipe to create a radial and expand it into the l pair of protrusions 2'.
Cut the sheet 1' so that it becomes the end (4 indicates the cutting line) to produce a ribbed sheet as shown in Figure 4, and combine it with a clip as shown in Figure 2 to make it into a circular tube shape. , was used.

しかしこれらに於て共通していえることは架橋方法はす
べて電子線照射によるもので、化学架橋は全く用いられ
ていなかった。However, a common feature in all of these is that the crosslinking method used was all by electron beam irradiation, and chemical crosslinking was not used at all.
化学架橋が用いられなかった理由は、有機過酸化物を架

なければならないため、それなりの架橋装置を必要とし
、又、架橋に時間がかかること及び連続生産には不向で
あると考えられていたためである。The reason why chemical crosslinking has not been used is that it requires a chemical reaction in which an organic peroxide is used as a crosslinking agent, the organic peroxide is decomposed by heating, and polyethylene is crosslinked. This is because crosslinking was considered to be time-consuming and unsuitable for continuous production.
本発明者はこのような状況の中で種々検討の結果、電子
線照射法による従来の方法では照射設備が高価であり、
ポリエチレンの押出と電子線照射とシートの延伸とを連
続的に行なわんとすると設備イ¥が一層高価となり、結
局製造の連続化は困難である。As a result of various studies under these circumstances, the present inventor found that the conventional method using electron beam irradiation requires expensive irradiation equipment;
If polyethylene extrusion, electron beam irradiation, and sheet stretching are carried out continuously, the equipment becomes more expensive, and in the end, it is difficult to achieve continuous production.
又、ポリエチレンシートを架橋して延伸するが、電子線

よきまると、自動的に延伸倍率も定まるので従って々圧
(生前の肉厚を余り厚くできず、高収縮率の成形E留〃
;得にくい。In addition, when polyethylene sheets are crosslinked and stretched, a thickness of 6 mm is the limit for ordinary irradiation equipment when irradiating electron beams, so if this is stretched, for example, 6 times, the thickness becomes ■□. Only extremely thin items can be manufactured using M. In other words, there is a limit 75 to the depth of penetration of the electron beam, so this determines the thickness of the polyethylenecut before stretching, and if the thickness after stretching is determined, the stretching ratio is automatically determined. Therefore, it is difficult to make the wall thickness too thick during life, and the molding E part with a high shrinkage rate.
;Hard to obtain.

得られる。The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and is a method of manufacturing a heat-shrinkable polyethylene sheet by chemically crosslinking a crosslinked polyethylene sheet and stretching this sheet, and employing an electron beam irradiation method. Unlike electron beam irradiation, there is no need for expensive irradiation equipment such as electron beam irradiation, and there are no restrictions such as transparency of the electron beam, so the crosslinked polyethylene sheet before stretching can be made into any thickness; Therefore, by stretching an arbitrary amount, an lr IJ ethylene sheet having an arbitrary wall thickness and an arbitrary shrinkage ratio can be obtained.

連続方式によるかもしくは、押出直後に連続的に架橋と
延伸を行なう連続方式によるなど各種の方法があるがそ
のいづれでもよい。In carrying out the present invention, a 2ζ Tsuchi method is used in which cross-linking is performed before stretching using a hot press and stretching is carried out along the edges, and a continuous method is employed in which extrusion and cross-linking are performed in an extruder and continuous stretching is performed immediately after extrusion. Alternatively, there are various methods such as a continuous method in which crosslinking and stretching are performed continuously immediately after extrusion, and any of these methods may be used.

全力/々−できて有利である。1-However, if anything, the equipment cost of the first-mentioned Kutsuchi method is low, and if a large number of pieces are produced by hot pressing several times, the length of time required for crosslinking can be reduced to the fullest. -It is advantageous to be able to do so.
又、通常収縮性シートの裏面にはエチレン酢ビ共重合体

で作ることも可能である。In addition, the back side of the shrinkable sheet is usually made of a fusible polyethylene R that does not contain adhesives or crosslinking agents such as ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer.
It is also possible to make them by a method such as multilayer extrusion, or by using separate processes.
