Description
耐圧容器内でポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子を樹脂融点近傍である発泡温度にて半融解させることにより、発泡粒子の示差走査熱量計(以降、「DSC」と略す場合がある。)測定において、2つの融解ピークを有する発泡粒子が得られ、無架橋のポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子の型内成形性が向上する。この際の耐圧容器内での発泡温度の変動により、2つの融解ピークを有する発泡粒子DSC比[全融解熱量に対する高温ピーク熱量の割合であり、後述するQH/(QH+QL)×100(%)]が変動し、安定した成形性を示す発泡粒子が得られにくいという問題があった。
これに対して、メタロセン系重合触媒用いて得られるプロピレン・エチレンランダム共重合体は、より低融点化が可能であり、130℃以下の低融点化が可能である。
しかしながら、特許文献3で使用されている樹脂は、一部がプロピレン・エチレン・1-ブテンランダム3元共重合体で、大部分はメタロセン系重合触媒を用いて製造されたプロピレン・エチレンランダム共重合体である。明細書中の実施例での樹脂融点は120~134℃である為、特許文献3で使用されているポリプロピレン系樹脂は、確かに低い加熱温度での型内発泡成形を実現しているが、高温までの成形加熱水蒸気圧の幅という点で改善を要するものである。
しかしながら、特許文献4における成形加熱温度としては、140℃以上が必要であり、低温成形といえるものではなかった。
しかしながら、特許文献5における最低成形加熱圧力は0.20MPa(G)(約135℃)で、それほど低温成形といえるものではない。
特許文献6で用いられているポリプロピレン系樹脂は、メタロセン系重合触媒を用いて製造された低融点のプロピレン・エチレンランダム共重合体とチーグラー系重合触媒で製造されたプロピレン単独重合体のような高融点樹脂を混合するものである。明細書中の実施例によれば、従来のポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子に比べて低い、0.2MPa・G未満の加熱スチーム圧力で良好な型内発泡成形体が得られると記載されている。
しかしながら、特許文献6の技術では、2つの成分樹脂の融点差が大きすぎる為、発泡粒子のセル構造が乱れ、連続気泡化しやすいことが想定される。
[1] ポリプロピレン系樹脂を基材樹脂として用いて得られるポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子であって、
前記ポリプロピレン系樹脂が、
熱流速示差走査熱量計(DSC)を用いて昇温速度10℃/分にて測定される2回目の昇温時のDSC曲線における融解ピークとして、少なくとも2つの融解ピークを有し、100℃以上130℃以下に最も低温の融解ピークを有し、かつ140℃以上160℃以下に最も高温の融解ピークを有し、
かつ、樹脂DSC比変化率が0.5~3.0%/℃であり、さらに、
該ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子が、昇温速度10℃/分での1回目昇温時のDSC測定において、2つの融解ピークを有し、低温側の融解ピーク温度が100℃以上130℃以下であり、高温側の融解ピーク温度が140℃以上160℃以下であることを特徴とする、ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子。

[3] 前記ポリプロピレン系樹脂が、メタロセン系重合触媒を用いて重合されてなるポリプロピレン系ランダム共重合体樹脂、およびメタロセン系重合触媒を用いて重合されてなるポリプロピレン単独重合体を含むことを特徴とする、[2]のポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子。
[4] 前記ポリプロピレン系樹脂が、メタロセン系重合触媒を用いる多段重合で製造されてなるものであることを特徴とする、[2]または[3]に記載のポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子。
[5] 前記メタロセン系重合触媒が、下記(化1)で表されるメタロセン化合物を含むことを特徴とする、[2]~[4]のいずれかに記載のポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子。
[6] [1]~[5]のいずれかに記載のポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子を、型内発泡成形してなる、ポリプロピレン系樹脂型内発泡成形体。
熱流速示差走査熱量計[セイコーインスツルメンツ(株)製、DSC6200型]を用いて、ポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子4~6mgを、10℃/分の昇温速度で40℃~210℃の間を昇温した後、10℃/分の降温速度で210℃~40℃の間を降温し、さらに、10℃/分の昇温速度で40℃~210℃の間を昇温した際に、2回目昇温時のDSC曲線の融解ピーク温度を、DSC融点とする。
なお、DSC曲線において複数の融解ピークが現れる場合、ポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子は複数の融点を有することになる。
(1)まず、ポリプロピレン系樹脂のDSC融点(融解ピークが複数存在する場合は、全ピークの中央付近の温度)に対して5~10℃高い温度を、熱処理温度A(℃)として仮に設定する。
熱流速示差走査熱量計(DSC)[セイコーインスツルメンツ(株)製、DSC6200型]を用いて、当該ポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子4~6mgを、40℃~50℃の間は5℃/分の昇温速度で、50℃~(A―10)℃の間は3℃/分の昇温速度で、(A-10)℃~A℃の間は0.5℃/分の昇温速度で昇温した後、A℃で30分間保持した後、A℃~40℃の間を35℃/分の降温速度で降温した後、40℃~210℃の間を10℃/分の昇温速度で昇温して、2つの融解ピークを有するDSC曲線を取得する。
得られたDSC曲線から、高温側の融解ピーク熱量の比率[=QH/(QH+QL)×100(%)](以下、「樹脂DSC比」と称する。)を算出する。すなわち、DSC比は、低温側の融解ピークと低温側ピークと高温側ピークの間の極大点から融解開始ベースラインへ接線を引き低温側ピークと接線で囲まれる部分の熱量である低温側の融解ピーク熱量QLと、DSC曲線の高温側の融解ピークと低温側ピークの間の極大点から融解終了ベースラインへ接線を引き高温側ピークと接線で囲まれる部分の熱量である高温側融解ピーク熱量QHから算出できる。
(2)同様に、DSC比の値がおおよそ10%~50%の間に入るように、熱処理温度A(℃)を変更して4~6点の測定を行う。
(3)図1に示すように、熱処理温度A(℃)がX軸、樹脂DSC比(%)がY軸となるよう、4~6点の値をプロットして、直線近似にて相関直線を描く。
原料樹脂の1℃当たりの樹脂DSC比変化率(%/℃)は、得られた相関直線の勾配として求められる。
したがって、樹脂DSC比変化率が小さい場合、発泡温度の変動による発泡粒子DSC比の変動が小さくなる。
熱流速示差走査熱量計[セイコーインスツルメンツ(株)製、DSC6200型]を用いて、ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子4~6mgを、40℃~210℃の間を10℃/分の昇温速度で昇温した際に得られるDSC曲線を取得する。
得られた1回目昇温時のDSC曲線から、上記と同様にして高温側の融解ピーク熱量の比率[=QH/(QH+QL)×100(%)](発泡粒子DSC比)を算出する。
ところで、重合触媒としてチーグラー系重合触媒を用いる場合、製造可能な共重合体中のエチレン含有率は5重量%程度が上限であるが、メタロセン系重合触媒を用いる場合、エチレン含有率が8重量%程度までの共重合体の製造が可能である。
従来のチーグラー系重合触媒を用いて重合されたポリプロピレン系樹脂では、低融点化に限界があり、市販されているものの融点は、130℃程度が下限であった。これに対して、メタロセン系重合触媒を用いて重合されたポリプロピレン系樹脂では、130℃以下の低融点化が可能で、さらには、120℃以下の低融点化も可能である。この低融点は、ポリエチレン系樹脂の融点に匹敵する低い融点である。
具体的には、ポリプロピレン系樹脂系発泡樹脂としては、熱流速示差走査熱量計(DSC)を用いて上記測定方法により算出される樹脂DSC比変化率が小さいポリプロピレン系樹脂を基材樹脂として用いて、かつ、発泡粒子の1回目昇温時のDSC測定において、2つの融解ピークを有し、低温側の融解ピーク温度が100℃以上130℃以下の低温であるものが好ましい。
原料ポリプロピレン系樹脂の樹脂DSC比変化率が0.5%/℃未満では、発泡温度を大きく変えてもDSC比の変化が小さすぎる為、発泡温度を調整することにより所望の発泡粒子DSC比を得ることが難しくなる傾向がある。樹脂DSC比変化率が3.0%/℃を超えると、発泡時の発泡温度の変動に対応する発泡粒子のDSC比の変動が大きくなる傾向がある。
ポリプロピレン系樹脂同士の混合の良好さという点からは、多段重合によって得られるポリプロピレン系樹脂を使用することが好ましい。また、得られる発泡樹脂粒子中の気泡径がより均一になる点からも、重合と同時に混合される多段重合によって得られるポリプロピレン系樹脂を使用することが好ましい。
また、最も低温の融解ピークを構成する成分の融点が130℃を超えると、成形温度が高くなる傾向がある。
そのため、最も低温の融解ピークを構成する成分と最も高温の融解ピークを構成する成分の融点差が大きすぎたり、最も高温の融解ピークを構成する成分の比率が多すぎると、発泡温度が高温側になり、低融点成分の結晶が全融解したり、溶融粘度が低くなりすぎて、得られる発泡粒子の気泡構造が不均一になったり、連続気泡化する傾向がある。
最も低温の融解ピークを構成する低融点成分の量が60重量%未満では、得られた発泡粒子の成形温度が高くなる傾向があり、95重量%を超えると、高温側の融解ピークを構成する成分が少なくなりすぎ、樹脂DSC比変化率が高くなる傾向がある。
前重合工程(P-1):エチレンを重合して前重合体を製造する工程であり、微量のエチレン前重合体を添加することにより、重合触媒を安定化させることができる。
予重合工程(P-2):前重合体の存在下で、プロピレンを重合して予重合体を製造する工程である。
本重合工程(P-3):予重合体の存在下で、プロピレン並びに、エチレンおよび/または炭素数4以上のα-オレフィンを共重合してプロピレン系共重合体を製造する工程である。
ポリプロピレン系樹脂のMFRが2g/10分未満では、発泡性が悪くなる傾向があり、MFRが50g/10分を超えると、ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子の気泡が破壊されて連続気泡ができ易い傾向がある。
そのため、本発明におけるメタロセン系重合触媒を用いて重合されるポリプロピレン系樹脂のMFRとしては、チーグラー系重合触媒を用いて重合されるポリプロピレン系樹脂のMFRに比べて、高くすることが良好な発泡性を得る点から、好ましい。
ここで、樹脂粒子の粒重量は、ポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子をランダムに100粒採取し、重量を測定し、1粒あたりに平均して得られた平均樹脂粒子重量である。
これら水溶性無機物、親水性ポリマー、多価アルコール類等は、単独で使用してもよいし、2種以上併用してもよい。
水溶性無機物、多価アルコール類を使用する場合、ポリプロピレン系樹脂100重量部に対して、0.01重量部以上2重量部以下であることが好ましく、親水性ポリマーを使用する場合、ポリプロピレン系樹脂100重量部に対して、0.05重量部以上5重量部以下であることが好ましい。
例えば、耐圧容器内にポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子を発泡剤存在下、分散剤等と共に水中に分散させ、加圧下で所定の発泡温度まで加熱すると共に、発泡剤を樹脂粒子に含浸させた後、容器内の温度、圧力を一定に保持しながら、耐圧容器内のポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子を含む分散物を低圧域に放出・発泡させる方法が好ましい(後述する二段発泡法と対比して、この方法を「一段発泡法」と称する場合がある。)。
(該中間温度-15)℃~(該中間温度+15)℃の間であることが好ましい。
これらの発泡剤のうちでも、炭酸ガス、水や、より高倍率での発泡が可能となるイソブタンが好ましい。
この際、より高発泡倍率の発泡粒子を得る為に、前記方法(一段発泡法)にて一旦ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子を得た後、該発泡粒子に空気等の不活性ガスを含浸させて発泡力を付与した後、加熱を行って更に発泡させる方法、いわゆる「二段発泡法」を採用してもよい。
これらの中でも、分散剤と分散助剤としては、第三リン酸カルシウムとn-パラフィンスルホン酸ソナトリウムを組み合わせて使用することが好ましい。
ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子の1回目昇温時のDSC曲線における最も低温の融解ピーク温度と最も高温の融解ピーク温度との差が25℃未満では、複雑な形状の金型、大きな金型等を使用して型内発泡成形を行う際、成形加熱条件幅が不十分となる傾向がある。
発泡粒子のDSC比が10%未満では、ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子の独立気泡率が低く、ポリプロピレン系樹脂型内発泡成形体の成形体変形率が大きくなる傾向にある。発泡粒子のDSC比が50%を超えると、ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子の型内発泡成形する際の2次発泡力が十分得られない場合があり、粟おこし状で発泡粒子同士の融着の劣るポリプロピレン系樹脂型内発泡成形体が得られる場合がある。
ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子の平均気泡径が30μm未満では、ポリプロピレン系樹脂型内発泡成形体としたときに収縮率が大きくなったり、表面美麗性が低下する場合がある。また、平均気泡径が1000μmを超えると、気泡径が不均一になり易く、ポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子の倍率ばらつきも大きくなり易い傾向がある。
ここで、ポリプロピレン系樹脂型内発泡成形体の発泡倍率は、発泡成形体の乾燥重量(W:g)とエタノール水没体積(V:cm3)から、(発泡成形体の発泡倍率)=1/(W/V)×0.9(0.9はポリプロピレン系樹脂の樹脂密度)で求められる。
ポリプロピレン系樹脂中のエチレン含有率は、炭素核磁気共鳴分析(C13-NMR)にて、特開2009-84377号公報の[0076]~[0079]欄に記載の方法で測定した。
ポリプロピレン系樹脂を、昇温溶離分別法(TREF)にて測定したピーク曲線の中で、高温側ピークの面積から、ホモPP含有量(ポリプロピレン単独重合体含有量)を算出した。
ホモPP含有量=(高温側ピークの面積/全面積)×100(%)
なお、昇温溶離分別法(TREF)による測定は、以下の装置および測定条件にて、実施した。
詳しくは、試料溶液(ポリプロピレン系ランダム共重合体樹脂のo-ジクロロベンゼン溶液)を、135℃の試料溶液注入部に注入した後、TREF部にて、135℃から0℃まで降温速度1℃/分にて冷却することにより、試料をTREF部内で結晶化させた。次いで、TREF部温度を、0℃にて60分間保持した後、下記の溶出区分温度において順次、試料を溶出してTREF部からGPCカラムに導き、赤外検出器を用いて、GPCクロマトグラム(分子量分布)を得る。
得られたGPCクロマトグラムは、装置付属の解析ソフトを用いて処理され、各溶出温度でのピーク面積から積分曲線(溶出温度に対する累積溶出量曲線)を作成し、積分曲線を微分することにより、溶出曲線が得られる。

熱流速示差走査熱量計[セイコーインスツルメンツ(株)製、DSC6200型]を用いて、ポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子4~6mgを、10℃/分の昇温速度で40℃~210℃の間を昇温した後、10℃/分で210℃~40℃の間を降温し、さらに、10℃/分で40℃~210℃の間を昇温した際に、2回目の昇温時のDSC曲線の融解ピーク温度を、DSC融点とする。なお、複数の融解ピークが現れる場合、ポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子は複数の融点を有することになる。
(1)まず、ポリプロピレン系樹脂のDSC融点(融解ピークが複数存在する場合は、全ピークの中央付近の温度)に対して5~10℃高い温度を、熱処理温度A(℃)として仮に設定する。
熱流速示差走査熱量計(DSC)[セイコーインスツルメンツ(株)製、DSC6200型]を用いて、当該ポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子4~6mgを、40℃~50℃の間は5℃/分の昇温速度で、50℃~(A―10)℃の間は3℃/分の昇温速度で、(A-10)℃~A℃の間は0.5℃/分の昇温速度で昇温した後、A℃で30分間保持した後、A℃~40℃の間を35℃/分の降温速度で降温した後、40℃~210℃の間を10℃/分の昇温速度で昇温して、2つの融解ピークを有するDSC曲線を取得する。
得られたDSC曲線から、高温側の融解ピーク熱量の比率[=QH/(QH+QL)×100(%)](以下、「樹脂DSC比」と称する。)を算出する。すなわち、DSC比は、低温側の融解ピークと低温側ピークと高温側ピークの間の極大点から融解開始ベースラインへ接線を引き低温側ピークと接線で囲まれる部分の熱量である低温側の融解ピーク熱量QLと、DSC曲線の高温側の融解ピークと低温側ピークの間の極大点から融解終了ベースラインへ接線を引き高温側ピークと接線で囲まれる部分の熱量である高温側融解ピーク熱量QHから算出できる。
(2)同様に、DSC比の値がおおよそ10%~50%の間に入るように、熱処理温度A(℃)を変更して4~6点の測定を行う。
(3)図1に示すように、熱処理温度A(℃)がX軸、樹脂DSC比(%)がY軸となるよう、4~6点の値をプロットして、直線近似にて相関直線を描く。
原料樹脂の1℃当たりの樹脂DSC比変化率(%/℃)は、得られた相関直線の勾配として求められる。

得られたDSC曲線から、上記と同様にして高温側の融解ピーク熱量の比率[=(QH/(QH+QL)×100(%)](発泡粒子DSC比)を算出する。
嵩体積約50cm3のポリプロピレン系樹脂発泡粒子の重量W(g)およびエタノール水没体積V(cm3)を求め、発泡前のポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子の密度d(g/cm3)から次式により求めた。

ポリプロピレン系樹脂型内発泡成形体密度は、型内発泡成形体の乾燥重量(W:g)とエタノール水没体積(V:cm3)から、次式により求めた。

ポリプロピレン系樹脂として、チーグラー系重合触媒で重合して得られた、エチレン含有量2.4重量%、1-ブテン含有量3.7重量%、熱流速示差走査熱量計による融点測定で得られた単一の融解ピーク温度133℃、MFR7g/10分であるプロピレン・エチレン・1-ブテンランダム共重合体(プライムポリマー社製 F337D)を用いた以外は、実施例1と同様の操作により、樹脂粒子、発泡粒子、型内発泡成形体を得、成形体評価を行った。結果を表1に示す。
チーグラー系重合触媒で重合した樹脂を用いた比較例3、4では、樹脂融点はチーグラー系重合触媒で重合した樹脂としては低い133~134℃であるが、最低成形加熱水蒸気圧は0.22MPa~0.24MPaと高くなり、成形加熱条件幅も0.06MPaと△の評価であった。
[基材樹脂の製造]
ポリプロピレン系樹脂として、比較例1で用いたメタロセン系触媒で重合したプロピレン・エチレンランダム共重合体85重量%と、チーグラー系重合触媒で重合したポリプロピレンホモポリマー(融点165℃、MFR8.0g/10分)15重量%を2軸押出機でブレンドして、ブレンド樹脂を得た。
[樹脂粒子、発泡粒子および型内発泡成形体の製造]
得られたブレンド樹脂を用いた以外は、実施例1と同様の操作により、樹脂粒子、発泡粒子、型内発泡体を得、成形体評価を行った。結果を表1に示す。
得られた発泡粒子は、不均一な気泡構造であり、連続気泡率が14.5%と高く(通常は5%未満程度)、型内発泡成形において、最低成形加熱蒸気圧は0.15MPaと低かったが、成形加熱蒸気圧を上げると、変形、収縮が大きく、成形加熱条件幅は極めて狭いものであった。
