Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the titled composition which can give a molding improved in flow, impact resistance and appearance without detriment to mechanical strengths, by mixing a thermoplastic crystalline resin with a fibrous or powdery inorganic substance, a metal powder, a lubricant and a surface treating agent. CONSTITUTION:This composition for outer trims of timepieces is obtained by melt-kneading a mixture comprising 10-40wt% thermoplastic crystalline resin, 5-40wt% fibrous or powdery inorganic substance, 30-70wt% meta power, 0.1-5pts.wt., per pt. wt. resin, lubricant and 0.1-5pts.wt., per pt. wt. metal powder, surface treating agent and pelletizing the mixture. Examples of the thermoplastic crystalline resins include nylons 6, 66 and 12 and Reny resin of a MW of 800-30,000. As the metal powder, at least one of spherical stainless steel, iron, copper and similar powders of a particle diameter of 0.2-500mum is desirable. Examples of the inorganic substances include fibrous and powdery glass, carbon, potassium titanate whiskers. As the lubricant, a higher carboxylic acid metal salt can be used.

As an engineering plastic, polyamide resin has the highest mechanical strength among thermoplastic resins, as well as excellent abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, and thermal properties, and is used in a wide range of applications. When used, high mechanical strength is required, and it is filled with glass fiber, metal powder, etc. to provide high strength. However, when filling these materials, if the molecular weight of the resin is high, it is difficult to fill the resin, and the fluidity of the resin deteriorates, resulting in poor molding surface.

As described above, according to the present invention, a watch exterior component composition contains 10 to 40 weight fan% of a crystalline thermoplastic resin, 0.1 to 5 parts of a high carbon acid metal lead lubricant/resin, and a fibrous inorganic material. Mechanical strength is improved by creating a composition containing 5-40% by weight, 50-70% by weight of one or more spherical metal powders, and 0.1-5 parts by weight of a silane thread surface treatment agent/metal powder. The molded surface is slightly rougher than those using heavy metal powder, but the surface roughness is much better than that of amorphous metal powder. In particular, since the heavy metal tungsten is not used, it has the effect of greatly reducing costs.
