The present invention relates to a method for producing thermoplastic resin sheets for producing films and the like.

法として冷却水の流下する多段スリットを用いる方法を
既に提案した(特開昭58−203018号)。By the way, in the production of crystalline thermoplastic resin sheets such as the polypropylene mentioned above, in order to improve the transparency of the sheets, rapid cooling is performed to control the crystal form. Water cooling is the most efficient method for such rapid cooling, but there is a problem in that it is difficult to uniformly cool the resin film extruded from the extrusion die. As a method for uniformly cooling a membrane-like body with water, a method using multistage slits through which cooling water flows has already been proposed (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 58-203018).

製造方法が望まれていた。Therefore, as a result of various studies conducted by the present inventors, we found that the influence of extrusion conditions at the stage of molten resin before the extruded resin film comes into contact with cooling water, that is, the stage from material supply to the resin extruder to extrusion. We discovered that there is a large stress on the tip of the extruder as an extrusion condition! ! He devised a method using an extruder equipped with a Japanese section, and proposed a method using this extrusion condition in combination with a slit water cooling method (Japanese patent application No. 60-287).
512, Japanese Patent Application No. 61-202146), these methods are excellent methods, but the selection of equipment is limited, and it is difficult to satisfy kneading properties, relaxation properties, and extrusion stability. There are also problems such as difficulty in manufacturing, and a better manufacturing method has been desired.

ある。(Means and effects for solving the problems) The present invention has the following features:
This method was developed based on the fact that the transparency of resin sheets varies depending on the water-cooling state of the molten resin film, and the limit of the water-cooling effect is closely related to the extrusion conditions at the resin extrusion forming stage. Water cooling of the resin membrane was carried out by running the cooling water through a flowing slit so as not to substantially stagnate at the inlet, while extrusion conditions were such that sufficient kneading and stress relaxation were carried out. However, if we try to achieve sufficient kneading and stress relaxation with one extruder, a special screw structure is required, which limits the range of equipment selection. By separating the extruder for the purpose of producing a thermoplastic resin and the extruder for the purpose of sufficient stress relaxation, it is possible to obtain a thermoplastic resin sheet (1) with good optical properties without limiting the range of equipment selection. .
従って、本発明では、十分な溶融混練を行うため、例え

性等の光学特性を良好にしたものである。Therefore, in the present invention, in order to perform sufficient melt-kneading, for example, a high-kneading type first extruder with a compression ratio of 2 or more, preferably 3 or more is used, and in order to perform sufficient stress relaxation, For example, a low kneading type second extruder having a steady extrusion function with a compression ratio of less than 2, preferably 1.5 or less, usually about 1, is used, and the first extruder is used to extrude the thermoplastic resin. The kneaded and molten resin is extruded through a connecting pipe into a second extruder, and the second extruder extrudes it from a die as a resin film with excellent surface properties while sufficiently relaxing stress. As mentioned above, the shaped body is introduced into the slit flowing downward so that the cooling water does not stagnate, and is cooled to improve optical properties such as transparency.

A predetermined heat treatment is performed, and the resin sheet molding is completed. At this time, the slit 31
The cooling water flow rate from the resin film body 38 and 35 is
The traveling speed is set higher than the running speed of the resin film-like body 38, and the amount of cooling water in contact with the resin film-like body 38 is increased to improve the cooling effect. Note that it is preferable that the cooling water flow into the upper slit 31 so that the cooling water does not stagnate at the slit entrance, and for this purpose it is necessary to keep the water level of the upper water tank 33 low. If stagnation occurs here, non-uniform cooling of the molten resin film occurs, making it impossible to obtain a sheet with low external haze.

ーピードであれば構造が最も簡易である。, this high kneading type first extruder 10 has a screw 14
The compression ratio is increased by increasing the groove depth from the resin supply side to the resin extrusion side, and this compression ratio is 2 or more,
Preferably, the number is 3 or more, and the molten resin is sufficiently kneaded by this first extrusion [10]. On this occasion,
A compression ratio of less than 2 is not preferable because it causes unnecessary retention of the resin and insufficient initial kneading. Further, the screw 14 may be of any type,
A type in which the groove depth changes at a constant pitch, or a type in which the groove depth is constant and the pitch changes may be used. The uniform kneading improving section 15 is, for example, the torpedo or a modified torpedo such as a dalmage with grooves in the axial direction on the circumferential surface, where resistance is given to the flow of the resin and uniform melting of the resin is achieved by shearing. Kneading is done. This uniform kneading improving section 15,
The gap between cylinder I3 and the inner wall is made small to increase shear. In addition, the uniform crosstalk improving section 15
For example, when a torpedo is used, the length is usually 0.1 to 2 times the screw diameter, preferably 0.2 to 1.
The average void cross-sectional area between the uniform kneading improving portion 15 and the cylinder 13 is, for example, 1/2 to 1/20, preferably 1/3 to 1/1, of the average void cross-sectional area of the screw 14.
is within the range of Specifically, although it depends on the length of the torpedo part, the gap with the cylinder wall is 1/150 = 1/20 of the screw diameter, preferably 1/20.
100 to 1/30. However, these values need to be optimally selected depending on the type of resin, section length, etc. At this time, the structure is the simplest if the uniform kneading improving section 15 is a torpedo.
