The present invention relates to a raw material composition for producing a polyurethane elastomer by a reaction injection molding method, and relates to the above-mentioned composition, which is characterized in that it yields a polyurethane elastomer with excellent molded appearance and good demoldability. Reaction Injection Molding
is abbreviated as RIM, and is a molding method in which multiple liquid components are mixed under pressure and simultaneously injected into a closed mold.The mixed components immediately begin to react, harden in the mold, and are molded and removed. . Although this molding method is mainly used for molding polyurethane, it can also be used for molding other synthetic resins. In the RIM method for polyurethane, active hydrogen compound components such as polyols and diisocyanate prepolymers, MDI, and other isocyanate compound components are used as raw materials, and the two are mixed and immediately injected into a mold.
After curing in the mold, the molded product is taken out. This molding method can produce various polyurethane products such as polyurethane elastomers and polyurethane foams, but at present it is mainly used for molding polyurethane elastomers. The inventor used the RIM method to obtain a relatively high density (0.8
~1.2 g/cm 3 ) of polyurethane elastomer was investigated. Polyether polyol or polyester polyol is used as the active hydrogen compound, and a small amount of ethylene glycol or 1,4
- When molding an active hydrogen compound component containing butanediol and a catalyst and an MDI prepolymer having an isocyanate group at the end using a RIM machine, the appearance was satisfactory, especially when the mold temperature was low (<50℃) No molded product could be obtained. That is,
A large number of voids were observed on the surface of the molded product, which should be smooth, and demoldability was poor, making it difficult to take out the molded product and tending to cause cracks in the molded product. Therefore, when we added a small amount of trichlorofluoromethane to the raw material to improve the moldability, the occurrence of voids decreased, but it was not possible to completely eliminate voids. Moreover, the demoldability was not sufficient and there was room for further improvement. Conventionally, in the production of polyurethane elastomers, the water content of raw materials, especially polyols, has always been a problem, and it has been necessary to reduce the amount of water mixed in as much as possible. In the production of polyurethane foams, water is used as a blowing agent, and in this case too, efforts have been made to reduce the water content of polyols for polyurethane foams as much as possible in order to precisely control the water content. For the production of polyurethane elastomers with low densities, blowing agents such as trichlorofluoromethane have been used, but with relatively high densities (0.8
~1.2 g/cm 3 ) in the production of polyurethane elastomers, moisture contamination should be avoided as much as possible.
Foaming agents were also not used much. However, the present inventor has discovered that the amount of a halogenated hydrocarbon blowing agent such as trichlorofluoromethane is precisely controlled, and the amount of the blowing agent is 2 to 5% by weight based on an active hydrogen compound such as a polyol. When a polyurethane elastomer is molded by the RIM method in the presence of 0.1 to 0.4% by weight of water based on the active hydrogen compound, the voids on the surface of the molded product completely disappear and a molded product with a glossy surface and excellent smoothness is obtained. It was found that demoldability improves as the temperature increases. Furthermore, it was found that various physical properties of the resulting elastomer were improved, such as improved surface hardness, increased flexural modulus, and reduced thermal deformation. This is the gist of the present invention, namely:
At least two components, a component whose main component is an active hydrogen compound having at least two active hydrogens and a component whose main component is an isocyanate compound having at least two isocyanate groups, are mixed and injected into a mold. In a composition for reaction injection molding of a urethane elastomer to obtain a polyurethane elastomer molded article, 2 to 5
A urethane elastomer composition for reaction injection molding, characterized in that at least one component to be mixed contains in advance a halogenated hydrocarbon blowing agent of % by weight and 0.1 to 0.4% by weight of water. As active hydrogen compounds for polyurethane elastomer raw materials, high molecular weight polyols such as polyether polyols and polyester polyols and low molecular weight diols such as ethylene glycol and 1,4-butanediol are often used in combination. These active hydrogen compounds usually contain at most 0.02 to 0.05
Contains % water by weight. This is mixed with a small amount of additives such as colorants, catalysts, fillers, mold release agents, etc.
Raw materials for the RIM process contain only 0.05-0.08% by weight of water, even if they absorb moisture from the air. Therefore, in the present invention, it is necessary to further add water to this active hydrogen compound component. The amount of water to be added varies depending on the moisture in the ingredients, but the final amount is 0.1 to the active hydrogen compound.
Adjusted to contain ~0.4% water by weight. This water content is a value measured by a Karl Fischer meter, and the required amount of water is added so that the water content of the active hydrogen compound component reaches this value at the time of use. Ingredients containing isocyanate compounds include
Water cannot be added because the isocyanate groups and water will react. Therefore, water is mainly added to the active hydrogen compound component, but if other components are mixed in addition to these two components, water should be added to this third component unless that component reacts with water. You may. That is, water is adjusted so that the above amount is present in a state where all the components are mixed (assuming that the water immediately reacts with the isocyanate group, but before that reaction occurs). The most preferred halogenated hydrocarbon blowing agent is trichlorofluoromethane, although dichlorodifluoromethane, methylene chloride, and other halogenated hydrocarbons may also be used. Although the halogenated hydrocarbon blowing agent can also be added to the component containing the isocyanate compound, it is conventionally added to the component containing the active hydrogen compound. The amount thereof is 2 to 5% by weight based on the active hydrogen compound component. When the water content is less than 0.1% by weight, the above-mentioned drawbacks become noticeable, and when it is more than 0.4% by weight, voids are likely to occur again on the surface of the molded product, and the tensile strength decreases due to an increase in the embrittlement temperature and a decrease in density. physical properties such as decrease. Similarly, if the amount of halogenated hydrocarbon added is small, the generation of voids will be noticeable, and if it is extremely large, the density will decrease. Water and halogenated hydrocarbons are blowing agents, and when they are added, bubbles are naturally generated inside the molded product, reducing the density. In fact, the density may be influenced by the amount added, but as long as the limited amount of the elastomer is used, the density of the elastomer is 0.8 g/cm 3 or more, and the air bubbles are finely dispersed inside the molded product. However, no voids are generated on the surface of the molded product. It is understandable that voids will appear on the surface as the amount of both blowing agents increases, but when halogenated hydrocarbons are not used and there is a lot of moisture, significant voids occur on the entire surface of the molded product. The reason for this is not very clear. However, it is thought that when a certain amount of foaming agent is present, the foaming pressure inside the molded product presses the surface of the molded product against the mold surface, thereby preventing the generation of voids on the surface due to air traps and the like. In addition, water reacts with isocyanate to form bisurea bonds, which improves surface hardness and is thought to improve demoldability. As mentioned above, the active hydrogen compound is preferably a polyether polyol, in which a di- to tetrahydric alcohol is used as an initiator, and an alkylene oxide,
Particularly preferred are those containing both propylene oxide and ethylene oxide and having a molecular weight of about 3,000 to 8,000. Furthermore, polyether polyols having polyoxytetramethylene chains or polyoxybutylene chains are used. For this polyether polyol, usually a small amount of ethylene glycol, 1,4-
Low molecular weight dihydric alcohols such as butanediol and 2,3-butanediol are used in combination. Further, a small amount of other high molecular weight polyol or low molecular weight polyol may be added for crosslinking or the like.
As the isocyanate compound, compounds having two or more isocyanate groups such as TDI, MDI, NDI (naphthalene diisocyanate), etc., and prepolymers having terminal isocyanate groups by reacting these with an active hydrogen compound are mainly used. Fillers, colorants, mold release agents, stabilizers, and other additives can be further added to the components containing active hydrogen compounds and isocyanate compounds.
For example, to obtain colored molded products, coloring agents such as pigments and dyes are used, and glass fibers,
It is also possible to manufacture reinforced molded products using carbon fibers, synthetic fibers, other fibrous fillers, mica, glass flakes, and other flat fillers. When these additives are used, they are usually added to the component containing the active hydrogen compound, but they can also be added to the component containing the isocyanate compound if there is no risk of them reacting with the isocyanate group. In the RIM method, the elastomer is produced in a mold, resulting in a directly molded product. Although the RIM method can produce foams such as polyurethane foams and polyurethane cellular elastomers, the present invention relates to polyurethane elastomers with a density of 0.8 to 1.2 g/cm 3 and excludes the above foams. However, since the elastomer of the present invention containing a large amount of filler may have a density of 1.2 g/cm 3 or more, in that case, the value is shown without the filler. Conventionally, when producing a foam by the RIM method, even if a blowing agent or water is added, the amount thereof is much larger than the amount used in the present invention. When manufacturing, efforts were made to reduce the water content as much as possible. However, in the present invention, by using a certain limited amount of water in combination with a halogenated hydrocarbon blowing agent, it is possible to obtain a molded article that is better than the conventional one. The types of molded products according to the present invention are not particularly limited, but include automobile bumpers, fenders,
Suitable for automotive parts such as doors, office equipment, electrical parts, building materials, etc. EXAMPLES The present invention will be specifically explained below using Examples, but the present invention is not limited only to these Examples. Example 1 Using liquid A (active hydrogen compound-containing component) and liquid B (isocyanate compound component) having the following composition,
By varying the amounts of trichlorofluoromethane and water in the liquid, an automobile bumper shell approximately 140 cm long and 13 cm wide was molded. The reaction injection molding machine was manufactured by Elasto Gran Machinenbau in West Germany, and the mold temperature was 50°C, the temperature of liquids A and B was 40°C, the injection rate was 50kg/min, and the injection pressure was 160kg/cm 2 for both liquids A and B. .
