The present application provides a method of selecting the material of an injection molded article and a method of manufacturing an injection molded article.

The present application relates to a method of selecting a material for an injection molded article. According to the material selection method of the injection molded article of the present application, it is possible to select polyethylene which is capable of producing an injection molded article excellent in crack stability through evaluation of simple properties of polyethylene used for injection molding, and to produce a product having excellent crack stability Injection molded articles can be produced using the polyethylene which can be used.

The material selection method of the injection molded article of the present invention is a method of selecting a material having a complex modulus within a specific range.

The complex modulus of elasticity is measured using a first specimen in the form of a sheet having a width of 6 mm, a length of 10 mm and a thickness of 0.3 mm from polyethylene. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the length and thickness of a specimen used in the measurement of physical properties of the present invention are specifically described, will be. In the specimen manufacturing process, the error may be about 1% to 5%. The first specimen can be prepared by dissolving the polyethylene pellets at 150 ° C to 250 ° C and applying the dissolved pellets to a pressing process at a molding pressure of 20 to 25 MPa. When the complex elastic modulus is measured from the first specimen produced by molding under the above conditions, a material having excellent crack stability can be selected when the injection is performed under the injection conditions of the injection molded product manufacturing method described later.

The complex modulus of elasticity can be measured by applying a displacement of 0.1% in the longitudinal direction of the first specimen to the first specimen at a frequency of 1 Hz at 25 ° C. The displacement is calculated as (Length after applying tensile strain - Length before applying tensile strain) / (Length before applying tensile strain) x 100. When the complex elastic modulus is measured under the above-described conditions, a material capable of producing an injection molded article excellent in crack stability can be selected when injection is carried out under the injection conditions of a production method of an injection molded product to be described later.

The crack stability of an injection molded article produced through injection molding is related to the rigidity of the injection molded article. The stiffness of the injection molded article can be deduced from the complex elastic modulus of the material. Particularly, when the crucible is manufactured by injection molding, the crack stability of the bottom surface of the crucible can be deduced from the complex elastic modulus of the material. A material capable of producing an injection molded article having excellent crack stability may have a range of the complex elastic modulus measured in the form of the first specimen described above to 1.80 GPa or less, or 1.75 GPa or less. However, if the complex modulus of elasticity is too small, the processability of the material deteriorates and the efficiency of the injection process deteriorates. Therefore, when the complex elastic modulus measured in the form of the first specimen is 1.3 GPa or more, 1.4 GPa or more, or 1.45 GPa or more. When a material having a complex modulus of elasticity in the above-described range is used, an injection-molded article excellent in rigidity can be produced by an efficient process.

The material selection method of the injection molded article of the present invention is a method of selecting a material having a ratio of elongation in a specific range. In the present invention, the ratio of elongation means a ratio (A / B) of elongation in the transverse direction (A) and elongation in the longitudinal direction (B). The transverse direction in the elongation means the same direction as the injection direction in which the second specimen is produced, and the longitudinal direction in the elongation means a direction perpendicular to the injection direction.

A second specimen of the dogbone type having a thickness of 3 mm, a width of 3 mm and a stretch length of 13 mm was prepared and confirmed. The second specimen can be produced by an injection molding method in which the resin temperature is 190 ° C to 250 ° C, the mold temperature is 40 ° C to 60 ° C, and the molding pressure is 0.6 MPa to 1.2 MPa. When the ratio of the elongation percentage is measured from the second specimen produced by injection under the above conditions, a material having excellent crack stability can be selected when the injection is performed under the injection conditions of the injection molded product manufacturing method described later.

Determination of the elongation ratio (A / B) is carried out by measuring elongation (A) in the transverse direction and elongation (B) in the longitudinal direction of the second specimen at 25 ° C. The elongation means a value obtained by stretching the specimen to the breaking point and further extending the additional length of the specimen stretched to the breaking point and further stretched in the stretching direction divided by the length in the stretching direction before stretching. Specifically, (length after stretching-length before stretching) / (length before stretching) is calculated. The elongation (A) in the transverse direction can be measured by stretching the second specimen in the transverse direction at a stretching speed of 300 mm / min at 25 ° C. The elongation (B) in the longitudinal direction can be measured by stretching the second specimen in the longitudinal direction at a stretching speed of 300 mm / min at 25 ° C. When confirming the ratio of the elongation under the above-described conditions, it is possible to select a material capable of producing an injection-molded article excellent in crack stability at the time of injection under the injection conditions of a production method of an injection-molded product to be described later.

The crack stability of an injection molded article produced through injection molding is related to the orientation of the injection molded article. The orientation of the injection-molded article can be deduced from the ratio of elongation of the material. Particularly, when the crucible is manufactured by injection molding, the crack stability of the side surface of the crucible can be deduced from the ratio of the elongation of the material. The material capable of producing an injection molded article having excellent crack stability has a range of the elongation ratio (A / B) as determined in the above-described second specimen form of 2.8 or less, 2.5 or less, or 2.2 or less. The smaller the range of the elongation percentage is, the smaller the orientation is in the transverse direction and the stiffness in the longitudinal direction is increased, so that the probability of occurrence of cracks parallel to the transverse direction is reduced. However, when the range of the elongation percentage is too small, there is a problem that the productivity is reduced when the injection-molded product is produced through injection. Therefore, the range of the elongation ratio determined in the above-mentioned form of the second specimen is preferably 1.5 or more, 1.6 or more, . The elongation (A) in the transverse direction and elongation (B) in the transverse direction are not particularly limited when the ratio (A / B) of the elongation satisfies the above value, And an elongation in the longitudinal direction is preferably 1.25 to 1.45.

The present invention also relates to a method for producing an injection molded article from polyethylene which is capable of producing an injection molded article excellent in crack stability.

The method for producing an injection-molded article of the present invention is a method for producing an injection-molded article from polyethylene having a ratio of a complex modulus of elasticity and an elongation ratio within a specific range.

The manufacturing method of the first specimen relating to the complex elastic modulus, the method of measuring the complex modulus of elasticity, and the preferable range of the complex modulus of elasticity in the method of manufacturing an injection molded article of the present invention are as described above and will be omitted.

In the method of manufacturing an injection-molded article of the present invention, the method of manufacturing the second specimen, the method of confirming the ratio of the elongation, the ratio of the preferred elongation and the range of the preferable elongation are as described above do.

The injection molding method of the present invention may be an injection molding having a resin temperature of 190 ° C to 250 ° C, a mold temperature of 40 ° C to 60 ° C, and a molding pressure of 0.6 MPa to 1.2 MPa.
