Description

ポリアセタール樹脂組成物およびポリアセタール樹脂組成物の製造方法Polyacetal resin composition and method for producing polyacetal resin composition
本発明は、機械物性に優れたポリアセタール樹脂組成物およびそのポリアセタール樹脂組成物の製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a polyacetal resin composition having excellent mechanical properties and a method for producing the polyacetal resin composition.
 ポリアセタール樹脂は、機械的特性、熱的特性、電気的特性、摺動性、成形性等において、優れた特性を持っており、主に構造材料や機構部品等として電気機器、自動車部品、精密機械部品等に広く使用されている。しかし、ポリアセタール樹脂が利用される分野の拡大に伴い、要求特性は益々高度化、複合化、特殊化する傾向にある。そのような要求特性として、ポリアセタール樹脂が本来有する優れた摺動性、外観等を維持したまま、剛性改良、ホルムアルデヒドの発生抑制に対し一層の向上が要求される。 Polyacetal resin has excellent properties in mechanical properties, thermal properties, electrical properties, slidability, moldability, etc., and is mainly used as electrical materials, automobile parts, precision machinery as structural materials and mechanical parts. Widely used for parts and so on. However, with the expansion of fields in which polyacetal resins are used, required properties tend to become more sophisticated, complex, and specialized. As such required properties, further improvement is required for improving rigidity and suppressing generation of formaldehyde while maintaining the excellent slidability, appearance, etc. originally possessed by the polyacetal resin.
 これに対し、単に剛性を向上させるだけの目的であれば、ポリアセタール樹脂に繊維状フィラー等を充填する方法が一般的であるが、この方法では、繊維状フィラー等の充填による成形品の外観不良や摺動特性の低下等の問題、更には靱性低下の問題がある。 On the other hand, for the purpose of merely improving the rigidity, a method of filling the polyacetal resin with a fibrous filler or the like is generally used, but in this method, the appearance of the molded product is poor due to the filling of the fibrous filler or the like. There are problems such as deterioration of sliding characteristics and sliding properties, and further deterioration of toughness.
 また、ポリアセタール共重合体では、コモノマー量を減少させることにより、摺動性や外観を実質的に損なうことなく剛性を向上させることが知られているが、コモノマー減量の手法においては、靱性が低下するのみならずポリマーの熱安定性も低下する等の問題が生じ、必ずしも要求に応え得るものではなかった。 In addition, in the polyacetal copolymer, it is known that by reducing the amount of comonomer, the rigidity is improved without substantially impairing the slidability and the appearance, but in the method of reducing the comonomer, the toughness decreases. However, the thermal stability of the polymer is also deteriorated and other problems occur, and it is not always possible to meet the demand.
 分岐構造導入したポリアセタール共重合体を配合した剛性向上も試みられているが(特許文献1)、分岐構造を導入したポリアセタール共重合体の重合の際に、コモノマーの種類によっては、カチオン重合触媒、特にプロトン酸を重合触媒とする場合に、重合開始が遅れ、突然爆発的に重合が起こってしまうことがあり、生産安定性の面からも課題があった。 Attempts have also been made to improve the rigidity by blending a polyacetal copolymer having a branched structure introduced therein (Patent Document 1), but at the time of polymerization of the polyacetal copolymer having a branched structure introduced, a cationic polymerization catalyst, depending on the type of comonomer, In particular, when a protonic acid is used as the polymerization catalyst, the initiation of the polymerization may be delayed and the polymerization may suddenly and explosively occur, which is a problem from the viewpoint of production stability.
 例えば、ポリアセタール共重合体に関して、トリオキサンと、1分子中にグリシジルエーテル基を2個以上有する化合物とを共重合させた共重合体が提案されている(特許文献2)。しかし、グリシジルエーテル基に代表されるエポキシ基とエーテル酸素を官能基として複数個有する化合物を重合に使用する場合、重合安定性に課題が残っている。特にプロトン酸を重合触媒に使用した場合、低触媒量では重合が起こらず、触媒量を上げると、不定期な誘導期ののち、突然激しい重合反応が起こる現象が発生し、重合制御を難しくしている。 For example, regarding a polyacetal copolymer, a copolymer prepared by copolymerizing trioxane and a compound having two or more glycidyl ether groups in one molecule has been proposed (Patent Document 2). However, when using a compound having a plurality of epoxy groups represented by glycidyl ether groups and ether oxygen as functional groups for polymerization, there remains a problem in polymerization stability. Especially when a protic acid is used as a polymerization catalyst, polymerization does not occur at a low catalyst amount, and increasing the catalyst amount causes a phenomenon in which a sudden violent polymerization reaction occurs after an irregular induction period, which makes polymerization control difficult. ing.
