Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for producing a branched aromatic polycarbonate resin. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing a branched aromatic polycarbonate resin having a high polymerization degree using a tri- or higher functional aliphatic polyol compound as a linking agent.
- PC Polycarbonate
- bisphenol A polycarbonates derived from aromatic dihydroxy compounds such as 2,2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) propane (hereinafter referred to as “bisphenol A”) are produced by either interfacial polymerization or melt polymerization. It is industrialized by the method.
- Polycarbonate produced from the interfacial polymerization method is produced from bisphenol A and aromatic monohydroxy compounds such as p-tert-butylphenol and phosgene.
- the polycarbonate obtained is a linear polymer and exhibits Newtonian properties when melted. In other words, the shear fluidity is less dependent on the shear rate of the melt viscosity, and the elongation fluidity is extremely low. Therefore, when performing large extrusion molding or blow molding, resin dripping is likely to occur due to its own weight. It is difficult to mold large products.
- Polycarbonate resins used for applications such as large-capacity hollow molded products, large extrusion molded products, and blow molded products have been evaluated for melt flow characteristics by this N value, and generally non-Newtonian flow behavior that is highly pressure dependent Is preferable because sagging and drawdown during extrusion and molding can be prevented. Therefore, it is desired to arbitrarily produce a polycarbonate resin having suitable melt flow characteristics such that this N value falls within an appropriate range.
- the interfacial polymerization method controls the non-Newtonian property at the time of melting by adding a polycarbonate resin component having an extremely high molecular weight or arbitrarily incorporating a branching agent into the molecule to form a branched structure.
- a polycarbonate resin component having an extremely high molecular weight or arbitrarily incorporating a branching agent into the molecule to form a branched structure.
- a melt polymerization method that has been known as another method for producing a polycarbonate resin is a method for producing a polycarbonate from an aromatic dihydroxy compound and diaryl carbonate.
- a method for producing a polycarbonate from an aromatic dihydroxy compound and diaryl carbonate For example, bisphenol A (BPA) and diphenyl carbonate (DPC) ) With a transesterification reaction in a molten state, and polymerizing while removing the by-produced aromatic monohydroxy compound.
- the melt polymerization method has the advantage of not using a solvent, but in the manufacturing process, in order to distill off the aromatic monohydroxy compound and carbonic acid diester in the high-viscosity polycarbonate melt. It is necessary to carry out the reaction for a long time at a high temperature and under a high vacuum. Therefore, a special apparatus capable of withstanding a long-time reaction under high temperature and high vacuum and a powerful stirring apparatus are required because the product is highly viscous.
- a high molecular weight polycarbonate produced by a conventional transesterification method since a high molecular weight polycarbonate produced by a conventional transesterification method generates an unspecified amount of branched structure during production, the degree of branching cannot be predicted when melted. In addition, it exhibits a greater non-Newtonian property than that produced by the interfacial polymerization method.
- This branched structure is due to a branched structure or a crosslinked structure by an ester bond formed by a reaction similar to the kolbe-Schmitt reaction by the action of an alkali of an alkali, and it is difficult to control the amount of the branched structure. It is known that there is. That is, there is a possibility of increasing or decreasing depending on the apparatus and operating conditions, and it is extremely difficult to control the flow behavior during melting in accordance with various moldings.
- the high molecular weight polycarbonate produced by the conventional transesterification method tends to decrease the hue, and only a yellowish one is obtained industrially. Furthermore, it is also known that it has a defect that strength is inferior (brittle fracture property is large).
- Patent Documents 1 and 2 have proposed transesterification polycarbonates that have no branched structure or are eliminated as much as possible.
- Patent Document 3 proposes a method for producing a polycarbonate having the Kolbe-Schmitt type branched structure having a concentration of 300 ppm or less.
- Patent Documents 4 and 5 the generation of a branched structure due to a side reaction that is extremely difficult to control is eliminated by using a specific catalyst, the color tone is improved, and a specific branched structure is actively used using a polyfunctional compound.
- Transesterification polycarbonates having improved hollow moldability by increasing the non-Newtonian nature of the flow behavior are disclosed.
- Patent Document 6 an attempt is made to improve molding fluidity by using 5- (dimethyl-p-hydroxybenzyl) salicylic acid as a branching agent.
- this polyfunctional compound has a problem that a gel is easily formed by crosslinking.
- Patent Documents 7 and 8 propose that the Kolbe-Schmitt-type branched structure derived from thermal degradation is controlled within a certain range by using a specific apparatus, temperature range and residence conditions.
- this control method it is difficult to fundamentally suppress the spontaneous occurrence of the branched structure, and because it is a heterogeneous structure due to a spontaneous thermal degradation reaction, to arbitrarily control the amount of branched structure generated, It is necessary to use specific operating conditions in specific equipment.
- Patent Document 9 an acid anhydride is used as a branching agent, but the influence on the physical properties and color tone due to the generation of an acid during the production and the introduction of an ester bond cannot be ignored.
- Patent Document 10 proposes a production method using a special horizontal stirring polymerization vessel as a final polymerization vessel in a continuous production method in which several polymerization vessels are connected.
- Patent Documents 11 and 12 propose a method using a twin screw vent extruder. However, these are aimed at promoting the elimination of phenol, and although a high molecular weight polycarbonate can be obtained, the physical properties cannot satisfy both mechanical properties and molding fluidity.
- the present inventors have previously proposed a new method in which the end of the aromatic polycarbonate is linked by an aliphatic diol compound to extend the chain.
- Patent document 13 the aromatic polycarbonate resin having a high degree of polymerization having an Mw of about 30,000 to 100,000 is shortened by connecting the ends of the aromatic polycarbonate with an aliphatic diol compound to extend the chain.
- This method produces a polycarbonate by a high-speed polymerization reaction, it can suppress a branching / crosslinking reaction caused by a long-time heat retention or the like, and can avoid resin deterioration such as hue.
- the inventors of the present invention made a branch when an aromatic polycarbonate prepolymer introduced with a branched structure using a predetermined amount of a branching agent is reacted with an aliphatic diol compound in the presence of a transesterification catalyst and linked. It has been found that there is a certain degree of correlation between the amount of the agent used and the degree of branching of the resulting high molecular weight branched aromatic polycarbonate (Patent Document 14).
