Definitions
- the present invention relates to a convergent yarn, a hydraulic composition and a molded product.
- a matrix containing a hydraulic material for the purpose of improving mechanical strength such as bending strength and toughness of a molded product which is a cured product of a hydraulic material typified by concrete and cement mortar, and suppressing cracks. It is known to incorporate reinforcing fibers therein. However, it is extremely difficult to uniformly disperse the fibers in the matrix, and the fibers may be entangled with each other during the kneading of the fiber and the hydraulic material to form an agglomerate (fiber ball). Then, it becomes difficult to exert the reinforcing effect of the fibers.
- Patent Document 1 describes a convergent yarn that is hardened with a water-soluble converging agent and has a defibration degree of 20% or more in a concrete molded product.
- Patent Document 2 discloses a convergent yarn that is converged with a water-soluble polymer resin and has a defibration degree at pH 12 of 50% or more.
- Patent Document 1 a water-soluble polymer having a film-forming ability is used as a water-soluble sizing agent.
- a water-soluble polymer having a film-forming ability is used as a water-soluble sizing agent.
- the fibers are bundled by using a water-soluble polymer having a high film-forming ability, it is difficult to increase the defibration degree and the strength of the molded body cannot be sufficiently increased. If the kneading time of the convergent yarn, the hydraulic material, and water is increased to increase the defibration, the defibration is improved by applying shearing force, but the fibers are easily damaged and a fiber ball is formed. It is easy to be done. As a result of these, the strength of the obtained molded article decreases.
- Patent Document 2 attention is paid to the degree of defibration under an alkaline condition of pH 12, but a certain kneading time or more is required until the pH of the matrix becomes 12 or more, and as a result, the defibrated fibers are Fiber balls are easily formed, and the strength of the molded product cannot be sufficiently increased.
- a converging yarn in which a plurality of fibers are integrated by a converging agent has a structural unit (X) derived from an unsaturated carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof in an amount of 0.1 to 10 mol% when the amount of all monomer units is 100 mol %, and has a saponification degree of 85.
- Convergent yarn which is a modified polyvinyl alcohol having a mol% or more.
- the modified polyvinyl alcohol has the structural unit (X) represented by the formula (X1): [In Formula (X1), X is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group]
- Ratio of molar amount of structural unit represented by formula (X1) to total molar amount of structural unit represented by formula (X1) and structural unit represented by formula (X2) in modified polyvinyl alcohol (X1/(X1+X2)) is a convergent yarn according to the above [5], which is 0.65 to 1.0.
- the convergent yarn of the present invention has a high degree of fiber disintegration and a low degree of coagulation of disentangled fibers when it is used by kneading with a hydraulic material such as cement.
- the converging yarn of the present invention is a converging yarn in which a plurality of fibers are integrated by a converging agent, and the converging agent comprises structural units (X) derived from an unsaturated carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof as all monomer units.
- the modified polyvinyl alcohol has a content of 0.1 to 10 mol% and a saponification degree of 85 mol% or more when the amount is 100 mol %.
- the converging yarn of the present invention includes a plurality of fibers and the above specific converging agent, and the plurality of fibers are integrated by the converging agent.
- the fact that the plurality of fibers are integrated by the sizing agent means that the plurality of fibers are bonded to each other by the sizing agent and bundled.
- the sizing agent contained in the sizing fiber of the present invention is a modified polyvinyl alcohol, and the modified polyvinyl alcohol comprises a structural unit (X) derived from an unsaturated carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof as a total monomer unit of the modified polyvinyl alcohol.
- the modified polyvinyl alcohol has a content of 0.1 to 10 mol% and a saponification degree of 85 mol% or more when the amount is 100 mol %.
- the modified polyvinyl alcohol represents polyvinyl alcohol modified with a structural unit (X) derived from an unsaturated carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof, and the modified polyvinyl alcohol is a structural unit derived from a vinyl ester-based monomer. , And at least a structural unit (X) derived from an unsaturated carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof.
- the modified polyvinyl alcohol may contain a structural unit other than the above structural units as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired.
- the amount of the structural unit (X) derived from the unsaturated carboxylic acid or its derivative is 0.1 to 10 mol% when the amount of all monomer units contained in the modified polyvinyl alcohol is 100 mol %.
- the bundling yarn is usually used by being dispersed in a hydraulic composition containing at least a hydraulic material and water, and the molded composition is obtained by curing the hydraulic composition. By dispersing the fibers contained in the bundling yarn in a single fiber state as uniformly as possible in the matrix of the hydraulic composition without damaging the fibers, it is possible to enhance the reinforcing effect of the hydraulic material by the fibers. It is thought to be possible.
- the hydraulic composition is produced, for example, by mixing the convergent yarn and the hydraulic material in a dry state and gradually adding water while stirring the mixture. Then, by adding water, the sizing agent is dissolved, and due to the shearing force due to stirring, the bundled fibers are loosened and disentangled. From the viewpoint of facilitating to increase the mechanical strength of the molded product by uniformly dispersing the fibers contained in the converging yarn in a single fiber state in the matrix of the hydraulic composition without damaging the fibers, a converging agent is used. It is considered that it is very important for the fiber to dissolve quickly in water and the fiber to be defibrated quickly and sufficiently.
- the solubility of the sizing agent in water becomes too low, and thus the fibers are dispersed as single fibers in the hydraulic material and the water matrix. Hard to do. Furthermore, when kneading the convergent yarn with the hydraulic material and water, it is necessary to defibrate the fibers by shearing force, so the fibers themselves are bent and buckling portions are likely to occur. When a buckling portion is formed in the fiber, the fiber having the buckling portion serves as a nucleus to easily form a fiber ball. As a result, the mechanical strength of the obtained molded article cannot be sufficiently increased.
- the solubility of the sizing agent in water to the sizing agent becomes too high, so that the swelling agent easily swells due to water in the air, and thus the modified polyvinyl alcohol.
- the performance as a sizing agent (particularly the adhesiveness of fibers) becomes insufficient. Therefore, it is considered that the fibers are likely to be damaged when the convergent yarn and the hydraulic material such as cement are dry-mixed before the production of the hydraulic composition.
- a bending portion also called a buckling portion is generated in the fiber, and a fiber ball is likely to be formed with the fiber having the buckling portion as a core. As a result, sufficient mechanical strength of the molded product cannot be obtained.
- the amount of the structural unit (X) is preferably 0.5 to 10 mol %, more preferably from the viewpoint of easily increasing the fiber disentanglement, easily decreasing the fiber cohesion, and easily enhancing the reinforcing effect of the molded body with the fibers. It is 1 to 9.5 mol %, particularly preferably 2 to 9 mol %.
- the amount of the structural unit (X) derived from the unsaturated carboxylic acid or its derivative contained in the modified polyvinyl alcohol may be determined from the 1 H-NMR peak of the modified polyvinyl alcohol, or the modified polyvinyl alcohol is produced. It may be determined from the charging ratio of the monomer at that time.
- the saponification degree of the modified polyvinyl alcohol is 85 mol% or more.
- the degree of saponification is less than 85 mol%, the modified polyvinyl alcohol has insufficient solubility in water, so that the fiber cannot be swiftly and sufficiently defibrated. Further, in order to defibrate the fibers, high shearing force and kneading for a long time are required. As a result, even if the defibration degree can be improved, the fibers are damaged or fiber balls are easily formed. As a result, a sufficient reinforcing effect of the obtained molded body cannot be obtained.
- the degree of saponification of the modified polyvinyl alcohol facilitates rapid defibration of the fibers, facilitates increasing the defibration of the fibers, and lowers the degree of fiber cohesion. Therefore, it is preferably 88 mol% or more, more preferably 90 mol% or more, further preferably 95 mol% or more, and particularly preferably 98 mol% or more.
- the upper limit of the degree of saponification may be 100 mol% or less, and from the viewpoint of improving the solubility in water by reducing the crystallinity of the modified polyvinyl alcohol, it is preferably 99.9 mol% or less, more preferably 99.8 mol%. It is as follows.

- the viscosity average degree of polymerization is less than or equal to the above upper limit, the solubility of the modified polyvinyl alcohol in water can be improved, and the fiber can be quickly and sufficiently defibrated.
- the viscosity average degree of polymerization can be measured by the method described in JIS K 6726 (1994).
