Description
THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITION CONTAINING POLYCARBONATE- POLYESTER AND NANOARCILLA
FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to thermoplastic molding compositions and more particularly, to clay loaded compositions containing a mixture of polycarbonate and polyester. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A thermoplastic composition comprising a resin mixture of (A) aromatic polycarbonate and (B) polyester, (C) nanoclay and (D) carboxylic acid is described. The composition exhibits improved melt stability and impact resistance with respect to corresponding compositions that do not contain acid. The nanoclay is present in an amount of 0.1 to 30 percent relative to the weight of the resin mixture and the acid is present in an amount of 1 to 20 percent relative to the weight of the nanoclay. The average thickness of the clay particles is from about 1 to 100 nm and their average lengths and average widths, independently of each other, from 50 to 700 nm. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Polycarbonate resins are well known and have been used for a long time for a variety of applications due to their characteristic combination of good mechanical and physical properties. However, its rigidity
(Bending module) is unsuitable for certain structural applications such as covers for power tools. The glass fibers incorporated in the polycarbonate have addressed this disadvantage to a great extent although they have adversely affected the appearance of the molded parts. Blends of polycarbonate with thermoplastic polyester are known. Commercial compositions containing such mixtures are commercially available, for example, in Bayer MaterilScience as Makroblend compositions. Clays with a particle size of less than 100 nm are available on the market in nanoclays. Its utility in polymeric matrices has been described extensively in the literature, for example, J. Materials Res., 1993, Volume 8, page 1179; J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym. Chem., 1993, volume 31, page 2493. Nanocomposites are a class of materials that have a phase having particle dimensions in the range of 1 to 100 nm. The technique has now recognized that the inclusion of these materials in polymer matrices results in compounds that have better mechanical properties than their opposites that include micro- and macro-scale particles. Polycarbonate compounds containing organically modified nanoclay (organoclay), modification by tertiary and quaternary ammonium salts, were described by P.J. Yoon, D.L. Hunter and D.R. Paul, in Polycarbonate Nanocomposites. Part 1, Effect of Organoclay Structure on Morphology and Properties, Polymer, 44, 5323 (2003), and by the same authors on Polycarbonate Nanocomposites. Part 2, Degradation and color Formation, Polymer 44, 5341 (2003). Geralda Severem Alex J. Hsieh and Bryan E. Koene described relevant polycarbonate compounds where the incorporated nanoclay had been modified with Cie and C-iß-tributyl phosphonium in an article entitled Effect of Layered Silicates on Thermal Characteristics of Polycarbonate Nanocomposites, Society of Plastics Engineers, ANTEC 2000, pages 1523-6. The technique also recognizes that swelling agents, such as long-chain organic cations, and water-soluble oligomers or polymers between adjacent layers of clay can be interspersed or absorbed and thereby increase the inter-layer separation. U.S. Patent No. 5,552,469 and WO 93/04117 among others have disclosed methods for treating relevant silicates resulting in the imparting of greater mechanical reinforcement to polymeric matrices into which they are incorporated. U.S. Patent No. 5,760,121 has disclosed nanocomposites containing a matrix polymer and exfoliated intercalates formed by contacting a phyllosilicate with a polymer to adsorb or intercalate the polymer between adjacent lamellae of phyllosilicate. Sufficient polymer is adsorbed between adjacent lamellae of phyllosilicate to expand the adjacent lamellae to a spacing of 5 to 100 angstroms in such a way that the interlayer can be exfoliated in a simple manner by mixing it with an organic solvent or a polymer melt. Also pertinent are the descriptions of U.S. Patent Nos. 5,747,560 and 5,385,776. U.S. Patent 6,610,770 has disclosed a polymer flame retardant composition made from a polymer mixed using a defined process with a smectite clay that has been reacted with a specified mixture of organic materials. It is said that the flame retardant properties depend on the degree of dispersion of a smectite organoclay in the polymer matrix. It is said that the proper functioning of the flame retardant polymeric compositions requires that the organoclay be dispersed in the polymer in such a way that it can not be fully exfoliated. further, U.S. Patent No. 6,521,690 has disclosed a composition that includes modified smectite clay with an organic chemical composition and a polymer. The composition consists of an intercalated organic chemical / smectite clay that has been ion exchanged and reacted and has been interspersed with one or more quaternary ammonium compounds and an anionic material and has been further mixed in a polymeric resin to produce a nanocomposite composition. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Compositions containing a polymer matrix and clay are known. Although the flexural modulus of such compositions in which the matrix is polycarbonate is clearly greater than that of resin alone, a noticeable degradation, expressed in terms of the marked increase in the flow index and the decrease in impact properties, results in after extrusion the composition of these compositions and then the molding of articles therefrom. The invention is based on observations that the addition of a carboxylic acid in a small amount to a mixture of polycarbonate, polyester and nanoclay stabilizes the composition, resulting in stabilized compositions exhibiting good impact resistance.
Polycarbonates (component A) suitable in the context of the invention include homopolycarbonates, copolycarbonates and mixtures thereof. Included in the term copolycarbonate as used herein are polyestercarbonates in which the ester linkages are present in a lower molar amount with respect to the carbonate linkages. Polycarbonates are known and their structure and methods of preparation have been described, for example, U.S. Patent Nos. 3,030,331; 3,169,121; 3,395,119; 3,729,447; 4,255,556; 4,260,731; 4,369,303, 4,714,746 and 6,306,507, which are all incorporated by reference in this document.
