(第1実施形態)
以下、本発明の実施形態を添付図面に基づいて説明する。
図1に示すように第1実施形態に係る樹脂複合材料の製造装置10は、合成樹脂及び充填剤を投入するホッパ11と、合成樹脂及び充填剤に高圧蒸気を導入する導入部12と、高圧蒸気の凝縮液(液媒)、合成樹脂及び充填剤を設定温度で混練する混練部13と、混練物に含まれる凝縮液を混練温度における飽和蒸気圧よりも低い圧力で排出させる排出部14と、凝縮液が排出された混練物を取り出す取出部15と、を備えている。
(First embodiment)
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, the resin composite material manufacturing apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment includes a hopper 11 for introducing a synthetic resin and a filler, an introduction unit 12 for introducing high-pressure steam into the synthetic resin and the filler, and a high pressure A kneading section 13 for kneading vapor condensate (liquid medium), synthetic resin and filler at a set temperature; and a discharge section 14 for discharging the condensate contained in the kneaded product at a pressure lower than the saturated vapor pressure at the kneading temperature; And a take-out part 15 for taking out the kneaded material from which the condensate has been discharged.

そして、第1実施形態における混練部13は、上流側から下流側に向かい順番にホッパ11、導入部12、排出部14、取出部15が設けられているシリンダ21と、このシリンダ21の内部で軸回転し混練物を上流側から下流側へ向かって連続的に押し出すスクリュ22と、を有している。   And the kneading part 13 in 1st Embodiment is the cylinder 21 in which the hopper 11, the introducing | transducing part 12, the discharge | emission part 14, and the taking-out part 15 are provided in order toward the downstream from the upstream, and inside this cylinder 21 And a screw 22 for rotating the shaft and continuously extruding the kneaded material from the upstream side toward the downstream side.

ホッパ11の上部には、合成樹脂の収容容器23a及び充填剤の収容容器23bが設けられている。
これら収容容器23(23a,23b)は、所定の配合率となるように、合成樹脂及び充填剤をホッパ11に供給する。なお、合成樹脂及び充填剤を均一に混合してからホッパ11に供給してもよい。
A synthetic resin container 23 a and a filler container 23 b are provided on the top of the hopper 11.
These accommodating containers 23 (23a, 23b) supply the synthetic resin and the filler to the hopper 11 so that a predetermined blending ratio is obtained. Note that the synthetic resin and the filler may be uniformly mixed before being supplied to the hopper 11.

合成樹脂は、樹脂複合材料のマトリックス相を形成するものであって、加熱により溶融する熱可塑性樹脂や、加熱により硬化する熱硬化性樹脂、さらには電子線や紫外線の照射により硬化する光硬化性樹脂などのいずれも採用することができ、所定温度において流動化するものが適用され、常温で液体のものも適用できる。   Synthetic resins form the matrix phase of resin composite materials, and are thermoplastic resins that melt by heating, thermosetting resins that cure by heating, and photocuring that cures by irradiation with electron beams or ultraviolet rays. Any of resins and the like can be adopted, and those that can be fluidized at a predetermined temperature are applied, and those that are liquid at room temperature can also be applied.

熱可塑性樹脂としては、ペレット状に成形された、低密度ポリエチレン(LDPE)、高密度ポリエチレン(HDPE)、ポリプロピレン(PP)、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体(EVA)、エチレン−アクリル酸エチル共重合体(EEA)等のポリオレフィン系の樹脂が好適である。   Thermoplastic resins include low density polyethylene (LDPE), high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymer Polyolefin resins such as coalesced (EEA) are suitable.

またこれらに限定されることなく、その他、ポリカーボネート樹脂(PC)、ポリエチレンテレフタレート樹脂(PET)、アクリル・ブチレン・スチレン(ABS)、ポリ塩化ビニル(PVC)、ポリスチレン(PS)、ポリアミド(PA)等、加熱により熱流動する性質を有し一般に押出成形が可能なものであれば、特に制限無く用いることができる。
さらに、これら熱可塑性樹脂は、二種以上混合して使用してもよい。
また、これら熱可塑性樹脂の再生品を使用することもできる。
In addition, without limitation, polycarbonate resin (PC), polyethylene terephthalate resin (PET), acrylic / butylene / styrene (ABS), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS), polyamide (PA), etc. Any material can be used without particular limitation as long as it has the property of being heat-flowable by heating and can generally be extruded.
Furthermore, these thermoplastic resins may be used as a mixture of two or more.
Also, recycled products of these thermoplastic resins can be used.

充填剤としては、混練温度において溶融せず固体を維持しつつ大きさが100μm以下の微粒体又は繊維質のものを用いることができる。
充填剤として、石炭火力発電所で発生するクリンカアッシュ、木材の炭化物などの粉砕物等の多孔質体が挙げられる。これら多孔質体は、空隙に液媒が残らず、合成樹脂との界面接着性がよいため、軽量で高強度の複合材料を得ることができる。
As the filler, fine particles or fibers having a size of 100 μm or less can be used while maintaining a solid without melting at the kneading temperature.
Examples of the filler include porous materials such as clinker ash generated in a coal-fired power plant and pulverized products such as wood carbide. Since these porous bodies do not leave a liquid medium in the voids and have good interfacial adhesion with the synthetic resin, a lightweight and high-strength composite material can be obtained.

また充填剤として、単層剥離した層状粘度鉱物や、ミクロフィブリル化したセルロースファイバーを採用することもできる。これらは、ナノコンポジットの原料として注目されているが、複合材料化にあたっては、再凝集により、実用化が難しいとされてきた。
しかし、本実施形態では、混練時にこれら充填剤の微粒体に液媒が纏わって再凝集が抑制されるため、充填剤を微細かつ均一に分散させた樹脂複合材料が得られる。
なお、これら層状粘度鉱物は、液媒中で単層剥離させて分散した状態で混練部13に投入されてもよい。同様にセルロースファイバーも、液媒中でミクロフィブリル化させて分散した状態で混練部13に投入されてもよい。
As the filler, a lamellar viscous mineral separated from a single layer or a microfibrillated cellulose fiber may be employed. These materials are attracting attention as raw materials for nanocomposites, but it has been considered difficult to put them into practical use due to re-aggregation when making composite materials.
However, in the present embodiment, since the liquid medium is collected in the fine particles of the filler during kneading and reaggregation is suppressed, a resin composite material in which the filler is finely and uniformly dispersed can be obtained.
In addition, these layered viscosity minerals may be thrown into the kneading part 13 in a state of being separated and dispersed in a liquid medium. Similarly, cellulose fibers may be put into the kneading unit 13 in a state of being microfibrillated and dispersed in a liquid medium.

また充填剤として、カーボンブラック等の炭素単体を主成分とする微粒体又は金属粒体を採用することもできる。
これら微粒体が分散した複合材料は、成形時にこれら微粒体が表面に優先配列するため、表面硬度が固く、電気伝導に優れるといった特性を示す。金属粒体を用いる場合は、その電気抵抗が15(μΩ・cm)(20℃)以下のものであることが望ましい。
Further, as the filler, fine particles or metal particles mainly composed of carbon such as carbon black can be employed.
The composite material in which the fine particles are dispersed exhibits characteristics such that the fine particles are preferentially arranged on the surface at the time of molding, so that the surface hardness is hard and the electric conductivity is excellent. When metal particles are used, the electrical resistance is desirably 15 (μΩ · cm) (20 ° C.) or less.

また充填剤として、窯業系廃棄物、ヘドロ、火山灰、発酵残渣、その他廃棄物系資源を適用することができる。
窯業系廃棄物、ヘドロは、層状粘度鉱物を多く含むものである。窯業系廃棄物は、液媒の中で粉砕することにより単層分離した微粒体が得られ、ヘドロは水を液媒とした分散体となっており、有害成分が無ければそのまま適用することができる。
火山灰は、微細で粒度が揃っているものも多く、発酵残渣は液媒中に粉体が分散している。また、その他廃棄物系資源においても、金属の粉体など、有利に利用できるものがある。
As the filler, ceramic waste, sludge, volcanic ash, fermentation residue, and other waste resources can be applied.
Ceramic waste, sludge contains a lot of lamellar viscous minerals. Ceramic wastes are pulverized in a liquid medium to obtain fine particles separated into a single layer, and sludge is a dispersion in which water is used as a liquid medium. it can.
Many of the volcanic ash are fine and have a uniform particle size, and the fermentation residue has a powder dispersed in the liquid medium. In addition, other waste resources such as metal powders can be used advantageously.

また充填剤として、アスペクト比10以上の繊維も好適に採用される。
そのような繊維としては、セルロース繊維系、炭素繊維系、ガラス繊維系など各種繊維が挙げられる。本実施形態によれは、繊維の凝集が抑制されるために、その分散性を高めた樹脂複合材料を得ることができる。
As the filler, fibers having an aspect ratio of 10 or more are also preferably employed.
Examples of such fibers include various fibers such as cellulose fiber, carbon fiber, and glass fiber. According to this embodiment, since aggregation of fibers is suppressed, a resin composite material with improved dispersibility can be obtained.

導入部12は、基端に高圧蒸気の発生部24が設けられ、先端が混練部13に接続している。発生部24において、液媒が加熱されて気化した高圧蒸気は、流量調整弁25により流量が調整されて、常温に近い混練部13の内部に導入される。
すると、高圧蒸気は、冷却されて凝縮して液媒に変化するとともに、潜熱を放出して合成樹脂及び充填剤を昇温させる。
The introduction part 12 is provided with a high-pressure steam generation part 24 at the base end, and the tip is connected to the kneading part 13. In the generating unit 24, the high-pressure steam that is vaporized by heating the liquid medium is introduced into the kneading unit 13, which has a flow rate adjusted by the flow rate adjusting valve 25, and is close to normal temperature.
Then, the high-pressure steam is cooled and condensed to change into a liquid medium, and the latent heat is released to raise the temperature of the synthetic resin and the filler.

液媒は、水が好適に採用されるが、大気圧レベルにおいて混練温度で気化し常温で液化するものであれば、適宜用いることができる。
この液媒は、充填剤と合成樹脂と共に密閉状態で加熱混練すると、合成樹脂の流動マトリックス相に、充填剤の微細な分散相を形成する作用をもたらす。
つまり液媒は、加熱混練時に合成樹脂の流動体中で粉体が凝集するのを妨いで複合体をミクロレベルで均一化する働きを有する。
As the liquid medium, water is suitably employed, and any liquid medium that vaporizes at the kneading temperature at the atmospheric pressure level and liquefies at room temperature can be used as appropriate.
When the liquid medium is heated and kneaded together with the filler and the synthetic resin in a sealed state, the fluid medium has an effect of forming a fine dispersed phase of the filler in the fluid matrix phase of the synthetic resin.
In other words, the liquid medium has a function of making the composite uniform on a micro level by preventing the powder from aggregating in the fluid of the synthetic resin during heating and kneading.

シリンダ21は、ホッパ11から投入された充填剤及び合成樹脂を移送するフィードゾーンAと、導入部12から高圧蒸気を移送中の充填剤及び合成樹脂に導入しこの合成樹脂を溶融させる蒸気導入ゾーンBと、凝縮液(液媒)、合成樹脂及び充填剤を設定温度で加熱混練し密閉系における高温高圧状態の液媒の作用により充填剤の凝集を抑制し溶融体のマトリックスに充填剤を微細に均一分散させる加熱混練ゾーンCと、混練物に含まれる液媒を気化して排出部14から排出させる液媒排出ゾーンDと、溶融状態の混練物が一定圧でかつ一定量で取出部15から取り出されるように調整するメタリングゾーンEとに分類される。
このシリンダ21には、フィードゾーンA及び蒸気導入ゾーンBを除く部分の外周に、温度制御ヒータ26が設けられている。このヒータ26によりシリンダ21の各ゾーンは、適切な温度に制御される。
The cylinder 21 includes a feed zone A for transferring the filler and the synthetic resin introduced from the hopper 11, and a steam introduction zone for introducing high-pressure steam from the introduction unit 12 into the filler and the synthetic resin being transferred and melting the synthetic resin. B, condensate (liquid medium), synthetic resin and filler are heated and kneaded at a set temperature, and the aggregation of the filler is suppressed by the action of the liquid medium in a high temperature and high pressure state in the closed system, and the filler is finely formed in the matrix of the melt. Heating and kneading zone C for uniform dispersion, liquid medium discharge zone D for vaporizing the liquid medium contained in the kneaded material and discharging it from the discharge unit 14, and a kneaded material in a molten state at a constant pressure and in a constant amount. And a metering zone E that is adjusted so as to be taken out from
The cylinder 21 is provided with a temperature control heater 26 on the outer periphery of the portion excluding the feed zone A and the steam introduction zone B. Each zone of the cylinder 21 is controlled to an appropriate temperature by the heater 26.

スクリュ22は、その軸周りに螺旋状のフライトが形成されているものであって、その末端に設けられた駆動部27によって軸回転する。これにより、フライトから圧力を受けて混練物を上流側から下流側へ向かって連続的に押し出す。
なお、第1実施形態における押出型の混練部13は、一軸型のものを例示しているが、二軸型又は多軸型であってもよく、またスクリュ外径が先端にいくに従って細くなるコニカル型であってもよい。
The screw 22 has a spiral flight formed around its axis, and is rotated by a drive unit 27 provided at the end thereof. Thus, the kneaded material is continuously extruded from the upstream side to the downstream side under pressure from the flight.
In addition, although the extrusion-type kneading part 13 in 1st Embodiment has illustrated the uniaxial type, it may be a biaxial type or a multiaxial type, and it becomes thin as a screw outer diameter goes to a front-end | tip. It may be a conical type.

排出部14は、シリンダ21に形成した開口をメッシュ板(図示略)で覆い、混練体がこの排出部14から外側に飛び出さないように構成されている。
混練物がこの排出部14の下を通過すると、密閉系から開放系に切り替わり、内部圧力が大気圧レベルに低下するために、含まれる液媒が気化する。
The discharge part 14 is configured so that the opening formed in the cylinder 21 is covered with a mesh plate (not shown) so that the kneaded body does not jump out of the discharge part 14.
When the kneaded material passes under the discharge part 14, the closed system is switched to the open system, and the internal pressure is reduced to the atmospheric pressure level, so that the liquid medium contained is vaporized.

図2の水の状態図が示すように、加熱混練ゾーンCでは、密閉状態であるために、混練温度Tzにおける飽和蒸気圧Pzよりも、その内部圧力P(>Pz)が高い状態になっている。このため、加熱混練ゾーンCにおいて液媒は、高温高圧の液体状態が維持され、溶融体マトリックス中における充填剤の凝集を抑制し、充填剤の微細かつ均一な分散に貢献する。As shown in the water phase diagram of FIG. 2, in the heating and kneading zone C, since it is in a sealed state, its internal pressure P (> P z ) is higher than the saturated vapor pressure P z at the kneading temperature T z . It has become. For this reason, in the heating and kneading zone C, the liquid medium is maintained in a high-temperature and high-pressure liquid state, suppresses the aggregation of the filler in the melt matrix, and contributes to the fine and uniform dispersion of the filler.

そして、液媒排出ゾーンDでは、開放状態であるために、混練温度Tzにおける飽和蒸気圧Pz(>P0)と大気圧P0との圧力差に基づく高い圧力勾配が生じている。
このため、液媒排出ゾーンDにおいて液媒は、気化して排出部14から外部に排出されて混練体は脱水されることになる。
Since the liquid medium discharge zone D is in an open state, a high pressure gradient is generated based on the pressure difference between the saturated vapor pressure P z (> P 0 ) and the atmospheric pressure P 0 at the kneading temperature T z .
For this reason, in the liquid medium discharge zone D, the liquid medium is vaporized and discharged from the discharge unit 14 to the outside, and the kneaded body is dehydrated.

なお、図1において図示が省略されているが、図6(A)に示されるような絞り弁14aによる脱水圧力の調節機能を有する排出部14を複数設け、脱水圧力を段階的に大きく設定することにより、混練物の脱水を急激ではなく徐々に進行させることができる。
また、排出部14の上部開口と冷却機能を有する液化部28(図8)とを連結し、両者の温度差に伴う飽和蒸気圧差を利用して、混練体から液媒の排出を促進することができる。
このように混練物を、設定した混練温度Tzにおける飽和蒸気圧Pzよりも低い圧力に晒すことにより、含まれる凝縮液(液媒)を混練部13の内部から外部に排出させることができる。
Although not shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of discharge portions 14 having a function of adjusting the dehydration pressure by the throttle valve 14a as shown in FIG. 6A are provided, and the dehydration pressure is set to be increased stepwise. Thus, dehydration of the kneaded product can be gradually advanced instead of abruptly.
Further, the upper opening of the discharge unit 14 is connected to the liquefying unit 28 (FIG. 8) having a cooling function, and the discharge of the liquid medium from the kneaded body is promoted by utilizing the saturated vapor pressure difference due to the temperature difference therebetween. Can do.
Thus, by exposing the kneaded product to a pressure lower than the saturated vapor pressure P z at the set kneading temperature T z , the contained condensate (liquid medium) can be discharged from the inside of the kneading unit 13 to the outside. .

取出部15からは、凝縮液(液媒)の排出された混練物が取り出され、冷却バス(図示略)を通過して凝固した後に、ペレタイザー(図示略)により米粒状のペレットにカットされる。
このように、ペレット状に成形された樹脂複合材料は、市場を流通した後に、再溶融されて種々の最終製品に成形される。
またマスターバッチのような、充填剤が高比率で配合されて、合成樹脂ペレットとの再混練により希釈して使用される樹脂複合材料についても、充填剤の凝集が抑制された高品質のものが提供される。
なお、常温で液体の合成樹脂の場合も、充填剤が均一に分散された高品質の合成樹脂が提供されることとなる。
