Abstract
A composition includes a polycarbonate resin formed via an interfacial polymerization process and from 0.05 ppm to 50 ppm of a sulfonic acid. A molded article formed from the composition may exhibit a yellowness index that is less than that of a reference molded article formed from substantially similar polycarbonate composition comprising the polycarbonate resin but in the absence of the sulfonic acid. Methods for forming the molded article in accordance with the above are also described.
Description
- This application is a divisional application of application Ser. No. 16/609,934, filed Oct. 31, 2019, which is the National Phase Entry of International Application No. PCT/IB2018/054440, filed Jun. 15, 2018, and which claims priority to U.S. Application Ser. No. 62/520,962 filed Jun. 16, 2017, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.
- The present disclosure relates to thermoplastic compositions, and in particular thermoplastic compositions including color stable components that retain desirable physical properties after processing under high heat conditions.
- Polycarbonates (PC) are used in a wide variety of applications because of their good balance of properties, including moldability, impact and transparency. For some applications, particularly outdoor applications, additives may be introduced to the polycarbonate prevent or slow its degradation. Common additives include ultraviolet (UV) stabilizers to improve weatherability of polycarbonate under exposure to light containing UV radiation, heat stabilizers to improve the ability of the polycarbonate to withstand excessive thermal conditions, and acid stabilizers to reduce decomposition. Some additives are used to protect the polycarbonate during processing.
- Typical molding conditions for molded polycarbonate articles such as those used in automotive lighting lenses (e.g., headlamps) and other applications utilize maximum temperatures of from 280-310 degrees Celsius (° C.). Polycarbonate resin, which is a desirable material for such applications because of its high transparency and good impact properties, can be molded into many useful articles at these temperatures. Increasing demands for more highly shaped and lighter weight articles (i.e., articles having a reduced wall thickness), however, result in a need to increase the temperature of the polycarbonate resin during molding so that it has sufficient flow (low enough viscosity) to fill the entire mold and/or to fill a mold cavity having relatively thinner dimensions. In addition, it may be desirable to increase the amount of time that the polycarbonate resin is held at these elevated temperatures to ensure that the polycarbonate is set in the mold. This may be particularly desirable in multicomponent (e.g., 2-component or 2K) molding applications. These applications may thus require increased molding temperatures from standard temperatures of 280° C.-310° C. to 330° C.-360° C., and increased residence times at these temperatures, which are well above the decomposition temperature of polycarbonate. If the polycarbonate or its respective components degrade under these molding conditions, the article can yellow and its mechanical performance, chemical resistance and weatherability could degrade.
- These and other shortcomings are addressed by the present disclosure.
- In the drawings, which are not necessarily drawn to scale, like numerals may describe similar components in different views. Like numerals having different letter suffixes may represent different instances of similar components. The drawings illustrate generally, by way of example, but not by way of limitation, various aspects discussed in the present document.
-
FIG. 1 is a graph showing the change in Yellowness Index for butyl tosylate derivatives after molding conditions of 350° C. for polycarbonate compositions. -
FIG. 2 is a graph showing the change in Yellowness Index for butyl tosylate derivatives after molding conditions of 370° C. compositions. -
FIG. 3 is a graph showing the change in Yellowness Index for butyl tosylate derivatives after molding conditions of 355° C. for LEXAN™ XHT polycarbonate compositions. - Polymer processing methods may require that the melt temperature of the molding apparatus be sufficiently high to achieve desired polymer behavior, such as high flow or thin wall moldability. However, where the melt temperature of the molding apparatus exceeds the decomposition temperature of the polymer, degradation of the polymer may occur. Extended residence times may further degrade the polymer.
- Processing temperatures in excess of 300° C., of 350° C., or even 370° C. and prolonged residence times are commonly applied to melt polycarbonate in high flow processes. The higher the temperature and the longer the residence time, the greater the likelihood of degradation, which may impair a number of physical properties. The change in the Yellowness Index (Delta YI, ΔYI) may correspond to degradation. Higher values for the ΔYI over time corresponded to increased weathering.
- In some aspects, the present disclosure relates to a composition including a polycarbonate resin and a sulfonic acid. An article formed from the composition, when tested using a 3.2 millimeter (mm) injection molded plaque and tested in accordance with ASTM D1925, exhibits a ΔYI less than that of a reference article injection molded from a substantially similar reference composition consisting essentially of the polycarbonate resin without sulfonic acid or consisting essentially of the polycarbonate resin with a butyl tosylate and without sulfonic acid. An article formed from the composition, when tested using a 3.2 mm injection molded plaque, exhibits a ΔYI less than the ΔYI of a reference article formed from a substantially similar reference composition under a maximum molding temperature of at least 350° C., at least 360° C., or at least 370° C. and at a residence time of at least 15 minutes.
- In other aspects, the present disclosure further relates to a composition including a polycarbonate resin, a sulfonic acid, and a heat stabilizer. In other aspects, the present disclosure relates to a composition comprising a poly carbonate resin and a stabilizer, comprising a heat stabilizer, an acid stabilizer, or a combination thereof.
- The present disclosure also relates to use of a sulfonic acid in a polycarbonate composition for reducing an increase in Yellowness Index (YI) when tested in accordance with ASTM D1925 when the polycarbonate composition is subjected to molding conditions comprising a maximum molding temperature of at least 330° C. at a residence time of at least 10 minutes, or a maximum molding temperature of at least 340° C. at a residence time of at least 6 minutes, or a maximum molding temperature of at least 350° C. at a residence time of at least 6 minutes, or a maximum molding temperature of at least 360° C. at a residence time of at least 3 minutes.
- In other aspects, the present disclosure relates to the use of a sulfonic acid in a polycarbonate composition for reducing a decrease in transmittance of the polycarbonate composition upon injection molding of the polymer composition. The present disclosure also relates to the use of a sulfonic acid as a stabilizer in a polycarbonate composition.
- The present disclosure can be understood more readily by reference to the following detailed description of the disclosure and the Examples included therein.
- Elevated temperatures and increased molding residence times, employed, for example, during two-component (2K) molding, may result in the decomposition of polycarbonate resin and/or other additives. Such decomposition may result in the occurrence of undesirable properties within the molded article, including but not limited to color change (e.g., yellowing), reduction in mechanical properties (e.g., impact strength), loss of chemical resistance, and reduced weatherability. Often, the extent of degradation of the poly carbonate may be measured with respect to the change in the Yellowness Index (ΔYI) observed in the polymer following molding. In various aspects, the present disclosure relates to compositions including a polycarbonate resin and a sulfonic acid. An article formed from the composition, when tested using a 3.2 mm injection molded plaque, exhibits a ΔYI that is less than a ΔYI observed for a reference article injection molded from a substantially similar reference composition consisting essentially of the polycarbonate resin without sulfonic acid. In certain aspects, the composition may further comprise a heat stabilizer.
- As used herein, a “substantially similar reference composition” is a reference composition that includes the same components, and the same amounts of the components, as the claimed (or described) inventive composition, except that the reference composition does not include a recited component (e.g., sulfonic acid, a heat stabilizer, and/or a UV absorbing component). In other words, the reference composition is otherwise identical to the claimed/described composition but for the exclusion of the recited component(s). It will be recognized that where the recited component(s) is/are omitted from the reference composition, the omitted component(s) will be replaced with a corresponding content of the primary component of the composition (e.g. polycarbonate). Thus, as shown in the Examples set forth below, if the described composition includes, e.g., 1 part per million by weight (ppm) of sulfonic acid with the balance being polycarbonate and other additional additives, the content of the omitted components may be replaced with a corresponding amount of polycarbonate.
- Before the present compounds, compositions, articles, systems, devices, and/or methods are disclosed and described, it should be understood that they are not limited to specific synthetic methods unless otherwise specified, or to particular reagents unless otherwise specified, which can of course vary. It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular aspects only and is not intended to be limiting.
- Various combinations of elements of this disclosure are encompassed by this disclosure, e.g., combinations of elements from dependent claims that depend upon the same independent claim.
- Moreover, it is to be understood that unless otherwise expressly stated, it is in no way intended that any method set forth herein be construed as requiring that its steps be performed in a specific order. Accordingly, where a method claim does not actually recite an order to be followed by its steps or it is not otherwise specifically stated in the claims or descriptions that the steps are to be limited to a specific order, it is no way intended that an order be inferred, in any respect. This holds for any possible non-express basis for interpretation, including: matters of logic with respect to arrangement of steps or operational flow; plain meaning derived from grammatical organization or punctuation; and the number or type of aspects described in the specification.
- All publications mentioned herein are incorporated herein by reference to disclose and describe the methods and/or materials in connection with which the publications are cited.
- The present disclosure relates in some aspects to a composition including a polycarbonate resin, a heat stabilizer and an acid stabilizer subjected to abusive molding conditions. An article formed from the composition, when tested in accordance with ASTM D1925 and using a 3.2 mm injection molded plaque, exhibits a ΔYI value that is less than the ΔYI of a reference article injection molded from a substantially similar reference composition consisting essentially of the polycarbonate resin without the sulfonic acid.
- In one aspect, the molded article, when tested in accordance with ASTM D1925 and using a 3.2 mm plaque, exhibits a ΔYI that is less than 4 with a maximum molding temperature of at least 350° C. and at a residence time of at least 15 minutes. In an aspect, the molded article, when tested using a 3.2 mm plaque, exhibits a ΔYI that is less than 2 with a maximum molding temperature of at least 350° C. and at a residence time of at least 15 minutes. In an aspect, the molded article, when tested using a 3.2 mm plaque, exhibits a ΔYI that is less than 2 with a maximum molding temperature of at least 350° C. and at a residence time of at least 15 minutes. The molded article, when tested in accordance with ASTM D1925 and using a 3.2 mm plaque, exhibits a ΔYI that is between 1.5 and 2 with a maximum molding temperature of at least 350° C. and at a residence time of at least 15 minutes.
- It has been found that UV absorbing component retention in an abusively molded article including a polycarbonate resin may be enhanced by including a heat stabilizer component and an acid stabilizer component in the resin. Without being bound to any particular theory, the heat stabilizer component and acid stabilizer component prevent attachment of the UV absorbing component to the polycarbonate chain, which reduces the level of bound UV absorbing component. In other words, the abusively molded article retains a higher level of free UV absorbing component.
- Butyl tosylate may be used as an acid stabilizer. Further, contrary to previously known polycarbonate resin-containing molded articles, molded articles according to the present disclosure including the heat stabilizer component and acid stabilizer component may better retain their molecular weight during abusive molding processes. It has been found that the ΔYI when tested in accordance with ASTM D1925 for an abusively molded article including a poly carbonate resin may be further improved by the presence of a sulfonic acid within the polycarbonate resin, rather than using a butyl tosylate as the stabilizer. The presence of a sulfonic acid in the poly carbonate resin may also improve ΔYI where the polycarbonate composition is subjected to abusive molding conditions, e.g., conditions greater than 350° C. and at 370° C.
- In some examples, an appropriate heat stabilizer and/or UV absorber may be added to minimize or prevent thermal degradation of the polycarbonate when the resin is subjected to elevated temperatures, particularly those employed during abusive molding. The heat stabilizer and/or a UV absorber may be added in addition to the sulfonic acid, which may be introduced to prevent variation in the rheological properties of the polymer with time and phase separation that may gradually occur as the polymer ages.
- Abusive molding conditions may relate to the maximum temperature at which the article is molded and the amount of time the article is held at that maximum temperature. As noted above, while typical molding conditions for molded polycarbonate articles such as those used in automotive lighting (e.g., headlamp) and other applications utilize maximum temperatures of from 280-310° C., in some applications it is desirable to increase the molding temperatures to at least 330° C., up to at least 360° C., or up to at least 370° C. Further, it may be desirable to increase the amount of time that the polycarbonate resin is held at these elevated temperatures; while in standard molding applications residence times may be 6 minutes or less, they may need to be increased to up to 12 minutes or longer in certain applications.
- Such abusive molding conditions, however, may result in the degradation of the polycarbonate resin. As an example, a polycarbonate at elevated temperatures degradation of the polycarbonate polymer chain (chain scission) may occur thereby forming free —OH groups in the polymer. In one example, where a benzotriazole UV absorbing component is a further component in the composition, the UV absorbing component may cause the polycarbonate backbone to scission. As the UV absorbing component attaches to the polycarbonate chain, the level of free UV absorbing component is reduced, which may result in the molded article having undesirable properties. The extended residence times further increase the degradative effects.
- In certain aspects, abusive molding conditions include molding the article at a maximum temperature of at least 330° C. at a residence time of at least 10 minutes, or at a maximum temperature of at least 330° C. at a residence time of at least 12 minutes, or at a maximum temperature of at least 330° C. at a residence time of at least 15 minutes, or at a maximum temperature of at least 340° C. at a residence time of at least 6 minutes, or at a maximum temperature of at least 340° C. at a residence time of at least 10 minutes, or at a maximum temperature of at least 350° C. at a residence time of at least 6 minutes, or at a maximum temperature of at least 350° C. at a residence time of at least 10 minutes, or at a maximum temperature of at least 350° C. at a residence time of at least 15 minutes, or even at a maximum temperature of at least 360° C. at a residence time of at least 3 minutes. In other words, during the molding, at least the last heating zone of the molding machine is held at a temperature of at least 330° C.
- In some embodiments, molding may be performed around 370° C. (e.g., 365° C. to 370° C., or at 370° C.). Molding temperatures around 370° C. may be performed for a portion of the residence time. In further examples, molding temperatures around 370° C. may be performed for 5 minutes, 10 minutes, or 15 minutes, or at any duration within those times.
- In another aspect, the abusive molding conditions include molding the article at a maximum temperature of at least 330° C. at a residence time of at least 10 minutes, or a maximum molding temperature of at least 340° C. at a residence time of at least 6 minutes, or a maximum molding temperature of at least 350° C. at a residence time of at least 6 minutes. The abusive molding conditions include molding the article at a maximum temperature of at least 350° C. at a residence time of at least 15 minutes. The abusive molding conditions include molding the article at a maximum temperature of at least 350° C. at a residence time of at least 15 minutes.
- As described herein, the abusively molded article may be formed from a composition comprising a polycarbonate resin. A composition comprising one, two, or more different molecular weight (or different high molecular weight) polycarbonates may be used, and may be referred to herein as a “polycarbonate”. The polycarbonate resin may have a molecular weight of from 15,000 to 55,000 Daltons, measured according to a polycarbonate standard. The polycarbonate resin may have, e.g., a glass transition temperature (Tg) of between 135° C. and 180° C., measured as per ASTM method D3418.
- Suitable polycarbonates for use in molded articles according to the present disclosure include but are not limited to bisphenol A, a polycarbonate copolymer, polyester carbonate polymer, or polycarbonate-polysiloxane copolymer, or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the polycarbonate resin comprises a polycarbonate homopolymer. In one example, the polycarbonate resin consists essentially of a homopolymer; the resin is free or substantially free of a polycarbonate copolymer. The polycarbonate may comprise at least 10 wt %, at least 20 wt %, at least 30 wt %, at least 40 wt %, at least 50 wt %, at least 60 wt %, at least 70 wt %, at least 80 wt %, or at least 90 wt %, or preferably at least 95 wt %, or at least 99 wt % of a polycarbonate homopolymer.
- All types of polycarbonate end groups are contemplated as being useful in the polycarbonate composition. Suitably, however, such end groups do not significantly adversely affect desired properties of the compositions.
- In some embodiments, the polycarbonate polymer is a homopolymer. The homopolymer may include repeating units derived from bisphenol A. In another embodiment, polycarbonate component is (or comprises) a copolymer. The copolymer may include repeat units derived from BPA.
- In another embodiment, the copolymer includes repeat units derived from sebacic acid. In an even further aspect, the copolymer includes repeat units derived from sebacic acid and BPA.
- Suitable polycarbonate copolymers are produced via interfacial processes and commercially available and include, but are not limited to, those marketed under the trade names LEXAN™ EXL, LEXAN™ HFD polymers, LEXAN™ SLX, LEXAN™ FST, LEXAN™ XPC, and LEXAN™ CFR, all commercially available from SABIC™ (formerly GE Plastics), and Covestro APEC™ (former Bayer Material Science). As noted above, although BPA polycarbonates, such as Lexan™ polycarbonates are of particular interest, various polycarbonates may be used in the embodiments disclosed herein, e.g., LEXAN™ XHT (available from SABIC™, a PPPBP/BPA copolycarbonate comprising 33 mol % PPPBP polycarbonate—also called 3,3-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-phenylisoindolin-1-one).
- A polycarbonate can include any polycarbonate material or mixture of such materials, for example, as recited in U.S. Pat. No. 7,786,246, which is hereby incorporated in its entirety for the specific purpose of disclosing various polycarbonate compositions and methods. The term polycarbonate can be further defined as compositions having repeating structural units of the formula (1):
- in which at least 60 percent of the total number of R1 groups are aromatic organic radicals and the balance thereof are aliphatic, alicyclic, or aromatic radicals. In a further aspect, each R1 is an aromatic organic radical and, more preferably, a radical of the formula (2):
-
—A1—Y1—A2— (2), - wherein each of A1 and A2 is a monocyclic divalent aryl radical and Y1 is a bridging radical having one or two atoms that separate A1 from A2. In various aspects, one atom separates A1 from A2. For example, radicals of this type include, but are not limited to, radicals such as —O—, —S—, —S(O)—, —S(O2)—, —C(O)—, methylene, cyclohexyl-methylene, 2-[2.2.1]-bicycloheptylidene, ethylidene, isopropylidene, neopentylidene, cyclohexylidene, cyclopentadecylidene, cyclododecylidene, and adamantylidene. The bridging radical Y1 is preferably a hydrocarbon group or a saturated hydrocarbon group such as methylene, cyclohexylidene, or isopropylidene. The polycarbonate resin, whether a homopolymer or a copolymer, may be free or substantially free of nitrogen.
- In addition to the polycarbonates described above, combinations of the polycarbonate with other thermoplastic polymers, for example combinations of homopolycarbonates and/or polycarbonate copolymers may be suitable. However, in specific aspects of the present disclosure, the polycarbonate resin comprises a polycarbonate homopolymer. In one example, the polycarbonate resin consists essentially of a homopolymer. For example, the polycarbonate resin may be free or substantially free of polycarbonate copolymer.
- In some aspects of the disclosure, the polycarbonate resin has an endcap level of at least 95%. Polycarbonate resins having this endcap level may generally be produced by an interfacial polymerization process. Purely by way of example, in one particular interfacial polymerization process in which the polycarbonate is BPA polycarbonate, the BPA polycarbonate may be produced by amine catalyzed interfacial polycondensation of bisphenol A and phosgene. In various examples, the polycarbonate resin may be endcapped with a carbonate group derived from para-cumyl phenol, para-t-butyl phenol, phenol, cyanophenol, (e.g., p-cyanophenol), benzophenone (e.g., 4,4′-dihydroxybenzophenone), 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane (THPE), or a combination comprising at least one of the foregoing. The polycarbonate resin may have a mole ratio of carbonate groups of greater than 80%.
- In contrast to other known methods for forming polycarbonates (such as melt transesterification processes) in which the polycarbonate has an endcap level of less than 95%, polycarbonates formed by an interfacial polymerization process are characterized as having an endcap level of at least 95%.

Comparative example 1 (CE1) included polycarbonate resins with no acid stabilizer. Example 2 included the polycarbonate resin and p-toluene sulfonic acid (PTSA) as the acid stabilizer. Examples 3 and 4 (Ex3, Ex4) included the PTSA and butyl tosylate (BuTos) combined to form the acid stabilizer.
- To determine the formation of free —OH groups upon processing, color plaques having a thickness of 2.5 millimeters (mm) were injection molded on a machine dedicated to transparent poly carbonate (Engel-75). Materials were dried at 120° C. for 2-3 hours (hrs) prior to injection molding.
- As a reference for standard molding conditions, the following temperature profile was used: Zone 1/Zone 2/Zone 3/Nozzle=280/290/300/295° C. The residence time of the material in the screw was controlled by the cooling time. These processing conditions are indicated herein as T(melt)/residence time (in minutes (′)) (e.g., 300° C./6′). Abusive molding may be performed at higher temperatures (as discussed herein), but with the same temperature profile as for the reference condition.
- Free —OH levels were determined by derivatization and analysis using phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance (31P NMR). Color values (L*, a*, b* and YI) were calculated from the absorption spectrum of a 2.5 mm thick color plaque (600×600 mm) between 400 nm and 700 nm. The spectrum was measured on a Macbeth 7000A device in transmission mode and UV excluded. The YI (yellowness index) values herein were calculated according the ASTM D1925 method. The ratio of bound UV absorber was established by using Gas Chromatography (GC).

- It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular aspects only and is not intended to be limiting. As used in the specification and in the claims, the term “comprising” can include the embodiments “consisting of” and “consisting essentially of” Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. In this specification and in the claims that follow, reference is made to a number of terms that shall be defined herein.
- As used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an” and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a polycarbonate” includes mixtures of two or more polycarbonate polymers.
- As used herein, the term “combination” is inclusive of blends, mixtures, alloys, reaction products, and the like.
- Ranges can be expressed herein as from one value (first value) to another value (second value). When such a range is expressed, the range includes in some aspects one or both of the first value and the second value. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent ‘about,’ it will be understood that the particular value forms another aspect. It will be further understood that the endpoints of each of the ranges are significant both in relation to the other endpoint, and independently of the other endpoint. It is also understood that there are a number of values disclosed herein, and that each value is also herein disclosed as “about” that particular value in addition to the value itself. For example, if the value “10” is disclosed, then “10” is also disclosed. It is also understood that each unit between two particular units are also disclosed. For example, if 10 and 15 are disclosed, then 11, 12, 13, and 14 are also disclosed.
- As used herein, the terms “about” and “at or about” mean that the amount or value in question can be the designated value, approximately the designated value, or the same as the designated value. It is generally understood, as used herein, that it is the nominal value indicated ±10% variation unless otherwise indicated or inferred. The term is intended to convey that similar values promote equivalent results or effects recited in the claims. That is, it is understood that amounts, sizes, formulations, parameters, and other quantities and characteristics are not and need not be exact, but can be approximate and/or larger or smaller, as desired, reflecting tolerances, conversion factors, rounding off, measurement error and the like, and other factors known to those of skill in the art. In general, an amount, size, formulation, parameter or other quantity or characteristic is “about” or “approximate” whether or not expressly stated to be such. It is understood that where “about” is used before a quantitative value, the parameter also includes the specific quantitative value itself, unless specifically stated otherwise.
- As used herein, the terms “optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequently described event or circumstance can or cannot occur, and that the description includes instances where said event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not. For example, the phrase “optional additional additive materials” means that the additional additive materials can or cannot be substituted and that the description includes molded articles that both include and do not include additional additive materials.
- As used herein, the term “effective amount” refers to an amount that is sufficient to achieve the desired modification of a physical property of the composition or material. For example, an “effective amount” of a heat stabilizer refers to an amount that is sufficient to achieve the desired improvement in the property modulated by the formulation component, e.g. achieving the desired level of UV absorbing component stability and/or color stability. The specific level in terms of wt % in a composition required as an effective amount will depend upon a variety of factors including the amount and type of polycarbonate, amount and type of other components, and end use of the article made using the composition.
- Disclosed are the components to be used to prepare the compositions of the disclosure as well as the compositions themselves to be used within the methods disclosed herein.
