Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a communication wire, a wire harness, and a method of manufacturing a communication wire.
- characteristics related to communication such as characteristic impedance are determined by the resin that forms the insulating coating that forms the insulated wire and the insulating outer layer (sheath) that covers the outer periphery of the signal wire. It can be adjusted by the component composition and material properties of the composition.
- Patent Document 1 a twisted pair wire in which a pair of insulated wires made of a conductor and an insulating coating covering the outer periphery of the conductor are twisted together, and the outer periphery of the twisted pair wire
- a communication wire having a sheath made of an insulating material that covers a is disclosed in which the dielectric loss tangent of the sheath is 0.0001 or more.
- a polar additive such as magnesium hydroxide as a flame retardant that increases the dielectric loss tangent to a non-polar or low-polar polymer material such as polyolefin, the dielectric loss of the sheath constituent material as a whole is improved. Adjusting the tangent is described.
- Patent Document 1 magnesium hydroxide is exclusively used as a flame retardant added to the insulating outer layer and insulating coating.
- flame retardants added to non-flame-retardant resins such as polyolefins in automotive communication wires include halogen-based organic compounds, phosphorus-containing compounds, nitrogen-containing compounds, and the like. From the perspective of minimizing the impact on communication characteristics of communication wires due to the addition of flame retardants, and also from the perspective of minimizing changes in communication characteristics and material properties in high-temperature environments and increasing the heat resistance of communication wires, It is preferable to make the content of the fuel agent as small as possible.

- exhibit a high flame-retardant effect even in small amounts. can be said to be preferable.
- the halogen-based flame retardant can be suitably used as a flame retardant added to the olefin-based polymer in the insulating coating and insulating outer layer that constitute the communication wire.
- Halogen-based flame retardants exhibit a flame retardant effect by gasifying during combustion and suppressing the combustion of high-molecular components. It is common to add a combustion aid together with a halogen-based flame retardant. However, flame retardant aids containing antimony trioxide are prone to secondary agglomeration.
- the formed aggregates of the flame retardant aid cause spatial non-uniformity in the material properties, including dielectric properties such as permittivity and dielectric loss tangent, in communication wires, resulting in non-uniform communication properties. , leading to destabilization.
- communication wires are required to maintain high communication characteristics even when used in harsh environments such as high temperatures for a long period of time. When placed in a high-temperature environment, the material properties of the resin composition and the communication properties of the communication wire tend to change. Furthermore, the formation of coarse aggregates also leads to a decrease in productivity of communication wires.
- the insulating coating that constitutes the signal line is often formed thin in order to reduce the diameter and ensure communication characteristics, and the effects of the formation of aggregates of the flame retardant auxiliary become noticeable.
- Cheap As described above, communication wires are more likely to be affected by agglomeration of the flame retardant auxiliary than non-communication wires such as power transmission wires. Therefore, if the component composition that has been applied to a resin composition containing a halogen-based flame retardant and a flame retardant auxiliary in conventional general non-communication electric wires is applied to communication electric wires as it is, the properties required for communication electric wires will be obtained. may not be satisfied.

It is composed of a flame-retardant resin composition containing a retardant and a flame-retardant aid containing antimony trioxide, and the aggregate diameter of the aggregate containing the flame-retardant aid is 50 ⁇ m or less.
- the wire harness of the present disclosure includes the communication wire.
- the flame-retardant aid when preparing the flame-retardant resin composition, is added at a higher concentration than the finally prepared flame-retardant resin composition.
- a step of preparing a flame retardant aid masterbatch that is contained in a molecular component and does not contain the flame retardant, and mixing the flame retardant aid masterbatch with other components to manufacture the communication wire. is.
- the communication wire and wire harness of the present disclosure include a resin composition in which a halogen-based flame retardant and a flame retardant auxiliary are added to an olefin polymer, and have excellent stability of communication characteristics and heat resistance. and wire harnesses including such communication wires. Moreover, according to the method for manufacturing a communication wire according to the present disclosure, such a communication wire can be manufactured with high productivity.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a communication wire having an insulating outer layer with a hollow structure as a communication wire according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a communication wire having an insulating outer layer with a solid structure as a communication wire according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Description
最初に本開示の実施形態を列記して説明する。
本開示の通信用電線は、導体と、前記導体の外周を被覆する絶縁被覆と、を有する1対の絶縁電線より構成された信号線と、前記信号線の外周を被覆する絶縁外層と、を有し、特性インピーダンスが、100±10Ωの範囲にあり、前記絶縁被覆および前記絶縁外層の少なくとも一方が、ポリオレフィンおよびオレフィン系共重合体より選択される少なくとも1種と、臭素系難燃剤を含む難燃剤と、三酸化アンチモンを含む難燃助剤と、を含有する難燃性樹脂組成物より構成されており、前記難燃助剤を含んだ凝集物の凝集径は、50μm以下である。
以下、図面を用いて、本開示の一実施形態にかかる通信用電線について詳細に説明する。本明細書において、材料組成について、ある成分がある材料の主成分であるとは、材料の全質量のうち、その成分が50質量%以上を占める状態を指す。高分子には、オリゴマー等、比較的低重合度のものも含むものとする。また、測定周波数および/または測定環境に依存する各種特性は、特記しないかぎり、通信用電線を適用する通信周波数、例えば、1MHz~50MHzの範囲にある周波数に対して規定されるものであり、また、室温、大気中にて測定される値である。本明細書において、通信用電線について、通信特性と称する場合に、電気的特性に分類されうるものも含め、通信に関わる特性を指すものとする。
図1,2に、本開示の一実施形態にかかる通信用電線1について、軸線方向に垂直に切断した断面図を示す。通信用電線1は、信号線10を有している。信号線10は、1対の絶縁電線11を含んでいる。通信用電線1はさらに、信号線10の外周を被覆して、絶縁外層(シース)20を有している。絶縁外層20は、図1に示した中空構造をとっていても、図2に示した充実構造をとっていてもよい。
(1)材料構成の概略
上記のように、本実施形態にかかる通信用電線1においては、信号線10を構成する絶縁被覆13と、信号線10の外周を被覆する絶縁外層20の少なくとも一方が、所定の難燃性樹脂組成物より構成されている。この難燃性樹脂組成物は、オレフィン系高分子をベース樹脂とし、臭素系難燃剤を含む難燃剤と、三酸化アンチモンを含む難燃助剤とを含有している。そして、難燃性樹脂組成物において、難燃助剤を含んだ凝集物の凝集径が、50μm以下となっている。
・形態1:絶縁被覆13と絶縁外層20が、ともに所定の難燃性樹脂組成物より構成されている。
・形態2:絶縁外層20が所定の難燃性樹脂組成物より構成され、絶縁被覆13が所定の難燃性樹脂組成物以外の樹脂組成物(他種樹脂組成物)より構成されている。
・形態3:絶縁被覆13が所定の難燃性樹脂組成物より構成され、絶縁外層20が他種樹脂組成物より構成されている。
上記のように、本開示の実施形態にかかる通信用電線1においては、絶縁被覆13と絶縁外層20の少なくとも一方が、オレフィン系高分子をベース樹脂とし、臭素系難燃剤を含む難燃剤と、三酸化アンチモンを含む難燃助剤とを含有する難燃性樹脂組成物より構成されている。以下、この難燃性樹脂組成物の組成および特性の詳細について説明する。なお、絶縁被覆13と絶縁外層20のうち、この難燃性樹脂組成物で構成されない層を構成する他種樹脂組成物についても、以下に説明する樹脂組成物の組成および特性のうち、難燃剤および難燃助剤に関わる事項以外については、特記しないかぎり、以下に挙げる構成を好適に適用することができる。
絶縁被覆13および絶縁外層20を構成する樹脂組成物のベース樹脂は、オレフィン系高分子を含んでいる。つまり、ポリオレフィンおよびオレフィン系共重合体(オレフィンを含む共重合体)より選択される少なくとも1種を含有している。ポリオレフィンとしては、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン等を挙げることができる。オレフィン系共重合体としては、エチレン-αオレフィン共重合体、エチレン-酢酸ビニル共重合体、エチレン-アクリル酸エステル共重合体、エチレン-メタクリル酸エステル共重合体などのエチレン系共重合体、プロピレン-αオレフィン共重合体、プロピレン-酢酸ビニル共重合体、プロピレン-アクリル酸エステル共重合体、プロピレン-メタクリル酸エステル共重合体などのプロピレン系共重合体を例示することができる。オレフィン系高分子としては、1種のみを用いても、2種以上を併用してもよい。好ましくは、オレフィン系高分子として、ポリプロピレン、ポリエチレン、エチレン-プロピレン共重合体の少なくとも1種を含むとよい。樹脂組成物を構成する高分子成分は、オレフィン系高分子以外の高分子種を含んでいてもよいが、好ましくは、オレフィン系高分子を主成分とするものであるとよい。
難燃性樹脂組成物に含有される難燃剤は、臭素系難燃剤を含んでいる。臭素系難燃剤の種類は、特に限定されるものではないが、エチレンビス・テトラブロモフタルイミド、エチレンビストリブロモフタルイミド等のフタルイミド構造を持つ臭素系難燃剤、あるいはエチレンビスペンタブロモフェニルを用いることが好ましい。それらの臭素系難燃剤は、臭素含有量が多く、難燃性に優れる。また、それらの臭素系難燃剤は、分解温度が高いため、通信用電線1が高温環境に置かれた際、また難燃性樹脂組成物の押し出し成形を経て通信用電線1を製造する際に、分解劣化を起こしにくい。臭素系難燃剤における臭素含有量は、好ましくは、50質量%以上であるとよい。すると、難燃性樹脂組成物における臭素系難燃剤の添加量を少なく抑えることができ、その結果として、難燃性樹脂組成物を調製するための混合時に、難燃剤の凝集や、不均一分布を抑えることができる。また、得られた難燃性樹脂組成物の機械的特性を高く保つことができる。
難燃助剤は、三酸化アンチモンを含むものであり、臭素系難燃剤による難燃作用を促進する役割を果たす。難燃助剤は、三酸化アンチモンを主成分とするものであることが好ましい。さらには、難燃剤は、99質量%以上が三酸化アンチモンより構成されていることが好ましく、この場合に、例えば、鉱物として産出される三酸化アンチモンを粉砕処理し、微粒子化したものを、難燃助剤として好適に用いることができる。難燃助剤としては、平均粒子径が3μm以下、さらには1μm以下のものを用いることが好ましい。すると、難燃助剤と高分子成分との界面における接着強度を高めることができる。難燃助剤は、粒径の制御や、高分子成分との界面における接着強度の向上等を目的として、シランカップリング剤、高級脂肪酸、ポリオレフィンワックスなどの表面処理剤により処理されていてもよい。
樹脂組成物は、上記で説明した高分子成分、難燃剤、および難燃助剤によって発揮される特性を著しく損なわない限りにおいて、難燃剤および難燃助剤以外の添加成分を適宜含有していてもよい。樹脂組成物に含有させるとよい添加剤として、酸化防止剤を挙げることができる。酸化防止剤は、樹脂組成物が絶縁被覆13を構成する場合にも、絶縁外層20を構成する場合にも、好適な添加剤として機能する。また、樹脂組成物は、さらに金属不活性剤を含有してもよい。特に、金属よりなる導体12と接する層である絶縁被覆13を構成する樹脂組成物には、金属不活性剤を添加するとよい。なお、各種添加剤が添加される場合に、それらの添加剤も、難燃助剤と同様に、50μmを超える粒径あるいは凝集径を有する状態を、樹脂組成物中で形成するものでないことが好ましい。
樹脂組成物は、各成分を含む組成物全体として、1.9以上3.2以下の範囲の比誘電率を有していることが好ましい。比誘電率は通信用電線1の特性インピーダンスに影響を与えるものであり、絶縁被覆13および絶縁外層20を構成する樹脂組成物の比誘電率が増大すると、特性インピーダンスが低下する傾向にある。また、絶縁被覆13および絶縁外層20を構成する樹脂組成物の比誘電率が小さい方が、導体12と、通信用電線1の周囲に存在する金属部材との間での電磁的結合を小さく抑えることができるため、モード変換特性が高くなる。特に透過モード変換を小さく抑えることができる。絶縁被覆13および絶縁外層20を構成する樹脂組成物が、上記の範囲の比誘電率を有することで、通信用電線1において、100±10Ωの特性インピーダンス、および高いモード変換特性を得やすくなる。樹脂組成物の比誘電率は、樹脂組成物の成分組成に依存し、高極性の成分を多く含むほど、比誘電率が増大する傾向にある。よって、樹脂組成物が、極性官能基を有する高分子や、金属水酸化物難燃剤や三酸化アンチモン難燃助剤等、極性を有する無機化合物を多量に含むと、比誘電率が増大する。
上記で説明したように、本実施形態にかかる通信用電線1においては、絶縁外層20が、図1に示した中空構造をとっても、図2に示した充実構造をとっても、いずれでもよい。また、絶縁外層20と絶縁被覆13は、いずれか少なくとも一方が上記で説明した所定の難燃性樹脂組成物より構成されていれば、他方は、難燃剤および難燃助剤を含有しない非難燃性樹脂組成物より構成されていてもよい。しかし、絶縁外層20の構造と、絶縁外層20および絶縁被覆13における難燃剤の含有の有無との間には、好ましい組み合わせが存在する。
本開示の実施形態にかかるワイヤーハーネスは、上記で説明した本開示の実施形態にかかる通信用電線1を含んでいる。ワイヤーハーネスは、本開示の実施形態にかかる通信用電線1を、1本または複数含むものであれば、その具体的な構成は限定されない。例えば、他の形態の通信用電線、あるいは通信用以外の電線を、本開示の実施形態にかかる通信用電線1とともに含んでいてもよい。また、通信用電線1は、適宜、端末のコネクタ等、他の部材と接続、結合されていてもよい。本開示の実施形態にかかる通信用電線1が、難燃助剤を含む粗大な凝集物を含有しないことにより、通信特性の安定性、耐熱性、生産性に優れたものとなっていることで、ワイヤーハーネス全体としても、それらの特性を有するものとなる。
次に、本開示の一実施形態にかかる通信用電線の製造方法について説明する。通信用電線1を製造する際に、信号線10を構成する導体12の外周を被覆する絶縁被覆13、および信号線10の外周を被覆する絶縁外層20のそれぞれについて、構成成分を混合して樹脂組成物を調製し、その樹脂組成物を押し出し成形する。絶縁被覆13および絶縁外層20の少なくとも一方は、オレフィン系高分子に、臭素系難燃剤を含む難燃剤と、三酸化アンチモンを含む難燃助剤とを添加した上記所定の難燃性樹脂組成物より構成されるが、本実施形態にかかる製造方法においては、この難燃性樹脂組成物を調製するに際し、難燃助剤をあらかじめ難燃助剤マスターバッチの形態にしておく。
まず、難燃助剤を難燃性樹脂組成物に粉体で導入する場合と、マスターバッチ化してから導入する場合について、組成物中での難燃助剤の状態を比較した。
まず、難燃性樹脂組成物として、組成物A1~A3の3種類を準備した。組成物A1としては、高分子成分および臭素系難燃剤に対して、難燃助剤を粉体の状態で添加し、混練した。組成物A2は、組成物A1に対して、再度混練を行ったものである。組成物A3としては、難燃助剤をマスターバッチ化したうえで、高分子成分および難燃剤と混練した。組成物A1~A3の成分組成としては、高分子成分としてのポリプロピレン100質量部に対し、臭素系難燃剤を40質量部、難燃助剤を20質量部含有するものとした。
試料A1~A3のそれぞれの通信用電線を軸線方向に垂直に切断して、マイクロスコープにて断面を観察した。観察像において、難燃助剤の分布状態を確認した。
図3A~3Cに、それぞれ試料A1~A3の断面の観察像を示す。まず、図3Aに示す難燃助剤を粉体の状態で添加した試料A1においては、黒く観察される絶縁外層の組成物の中に、白く観察される粒子が点在している。この粒子は、難燃助剤が二次凝集した凝集物に対応している。凝集物の粒径は、おおむね30~50μmであり、大きいものでは50μmを超えている。このように、難燃性樹脂組成物に難燃助剤を粉体の状態で添加すると、難燃助剤が粗大な凝集物を形成する。
次に、上記で観察された難燃助剤の状態と、難燃性樹脂組成物の材料特性との関係を検証した。
まず、難燃性樹脂組成物として、組成物B1~B3の3種類を準備した。組成物B1としては、高分子成分としてのポリプロピレンおよび臭素系難燃剤に対して、難燃助剤を粉体の状態で添加し、混練した。組成物B2,B3としては、難燃助剤をマスターバッチ化したうえで、高分子成分および難燃剤と混練した。各組成物における各成分の配合量は、下の表1に示した(単位:質量部)。組成物B2と組成物B3は、難燃剤および難燃助剤の含有量において相違している。なお、組成物B1,B2は、上記試験[1]の組成物A1,A3とそれぞれ同じものである。
上記で準備した試料B1~B3のそれぞれの通信用電線に対して、ISO6722に準拠した燃焼試験を行った。つまり、各試料にかかる通信用電線を600mmの長さに切り出して45°傾斜した状態に保持した。そして、試料の下方向から100mmの箇所にガスバーナーをセットし、15秒間にわたって炎を当てた。炎を離した後、消火するまでの時間を計測した。同様の測定を、試料B1~B3のそれぞれについて、独立して作製した10個体の試料に対して行った。
下の表1に、各試料における絶縁外層の難燃性樹脂組成物の配合とともに、N1~N10の10個体に対する燃焼試験で計測された燃焼時間を示す。難燃助剤の配合量については、マスターバッチ(MB)を用いている場合にも、難燃助剤そのものの量を表示している。マスターバッチに含有される高分子成分については、高分子成分総量としてまとめて表示している。
次に、絶縁被覆および絶縁外層を構成する樹脂組成物の成分組成を変化させて、通信用電線の特性との関係を検証した。

ISO6722に準拠した燃焼試験により、難燃性を評価した。つまり、各試料にかかる通信用電線を600mmの長さに切り出して45°傾斜した状態に保持した。そして、試料の下方向から100mmの箇所にガスバーナーをセットし、15秒間にわたって炎を当てた。炎を離した後、消火するまでの時間を計測した。30秒以内で消火する場合を、難燃性が特に高い「A+」と評価した。また、30秒超かつ70秒以内で消火する場合を、難燃性が高い「A」と評価した。70秒以内に消火しなかった場合を、難燃性が低い「B」と評価した。
各試料にかかる通信用電線に対して、LCRメータを用いたオープン/ショート法によって特性インピーダンスを計測した。いずれの通信用電線についても、特性インピーダンスは100±10Ωの範囲に収まったが、さらに特性インピーダンスの安定性を評価した。具体的には、独立に製造した10個体の試料に対して特性インピーダンスの測定を行い、測定値のばらつきが1Ω以下の場合を、特性インピーダンスの安定性が特に高い「A+」と評価した。また、測定値のばらつきが1Ω超かつ3Ω以下の場合を、特性インピーダンスの安定性が高い「A」と評価した。測定値のばらつきが3Ω超の場合を、特性インピーダンスの安定性が低い「B」と評価した。
各試料にかかる通信用電線に対して、透過モード変換特性(LCTL)の測定を行った。測定は、単独状態の通信用電線に対して、ネットワークアナライザーを用いて、周波数50MHzで行った。独立に製造した10個体の試料に対してLCTLの測定を行い、測定値のばらつきが3dB以下の場合を、LCTLの安定性が特に高い「A+」と評価した。また、測定値のばらつきが3dB超かつ5dB以下の場合を、LCTLの安定性が高い「A」と評価した。測定値のばらつきが5dB超の場合を、LCTLの安定性が低い「B」と評価した。
周辺の金属材料の影響を検証するための試料として、ワイヤーハーネスを模擬し、測定対象の通信用電線1本の外周に、同じ通信用電線を6本配置して束にして、その束の外周にポリオレフィン素材の粘着テープでハーフラップ巻きを行った。この束状態の測定試料において、中心の測定対象の1本の通信用電線に対して、上記透過モード変換の安定性の評価において行ったのと同様の方法で、透過モード変換の測定を行った。この束状態に対する測定値と、測定対象の1本の通信用電線に対して単独の状態で得た測定値との乖離が、5dB以下の場合を、周辺金属による影響が特に小さく、透過モード変換特性が特に高い「A+」と評価した。また、乖離が5dB超かつ10dB以下の場合を、周辺金属による影響が小さく、透過モード変換特性が高い「A」と評価した。乖離が10dB超の場合を、周辺金属による影響が大きく、透過モード変換特性が低い「B」と評価した。
各試料の通信用電線に対して、85℃の環境に3000時間にわたって放置する耐久試験を行った。耐久試験の前および後に、上記特性インピーダンスの評価と同様の方法で、特性インピーダンスの測定を行った。耐久試験を経た際の特性インピーダンスの変化量が5Ω以下である場合を、耐熱性が高い「A」と評価した。一方、変化量が5Ωを超える場合を、耐熱性が低い「B」と評価した。さらに、耐熱性が高い(A)と評価された場合には、新たな試料に対して、105℃のさらに厳しい環境に3000時間にわたって放置する耐久試験を行った。この耐久試験を経た際の特性インピーダンスの変化量が5Ω以下である場合を、耐熱性が特に高い「A+」と評価した。
各試料の通信用電線に対して、ISO6722に準じた耐摩耗試験を行った。つまり、通信用電線に対して外径0.45mmの鉄線を荷重7Nで押し当て、55回/分の速さで往復動させ、鉄線と通信用電線の導体が導通するまでの回数を測定した。往復回数300回を超える場合を、耐摩耗性が特に高い「A+」と評価した。また、往復回数が100回以上300回未満の場合を、耐摩摩耗性が高い「A」と評価した。往復回数が100回未満の場合を、耐摩摩耗性が低い「B」と評価した。
各試料の絶縁被覆および絶縁外層を構成する樹脂組成物をそれぞれ用いて、誘電率測定用の試料を作製した。試料形状は、縦1.5mm×横1.5mm×高さ50mmの角柱とした。得られた試料に対して、空洞共振器法を用いて、1GHzの誘電率を測定した。絶縁被覆、絶縁外層とも、比誘電率が2.0以上2.8未満の場合を、誘電率が特に好適である「A+」とした。比誘電率が2.8以上3.2未満の場合を、誘電率が好適である「A」とした。なお、比誘電率が3.2以上となると、通信用電線の構成材料として適さないので、樹脂組成物の成分組成を設定する段階で、比誘電率が3.2以上となる成分組成は、除外している。
各試料の絶縁被覆および絶縁外層を構成する樹脂組成物をそれぞれシート状に成形し4mm厚のダンベル型の測定試料を作製した。その測定試料に対して、JIS K 7171に準拠して、1mm/分の速度で3点曲げ試験を行った。そして、ひずみ0.25~0.5における曲げ弾性率を測定した。絶縁被覆については、曲げ弾性率が800MPa以上、2000MPa以下の場合を、弾性率が好適である「A」と評価した。絶縁外層については、曲げ弾性率が300MPa以上、700MPa以下の場合を、弾性率が好適である「A」と評価した。曲げ弾性率がそれらの範囲を外れる場合には、表2~4中に測定値が存在する領域を記載した。
絶縁被覆と絶縁外層について、それぞれ1m間隔で3か所において、断面をカッターナイフで輪切りにし、マイクロスコープ(キーエンス製 「VHX6000」)にて観察を行った。そして白い粉状の凝集物(図3A,3B参照)のサイズ(凝集物を横切る最大の直線の長さ)を計測した。絶縁被覆と絶縁外層を合わせて、それぞれの3か所の断面で観察されたうち、最大の凝集物のサイズを記録した。
表2に試料C1~C5について、表3に試料C6~C9について、表4に試料D1~D5について、絶縁被覆(表中で被覆層)および絶縁外層(表中で外層)のそれぞれの成分組成(単位:質量部)と、各評価の結果を示す。難燃助剤マスターバッチ(Sb-MB0~5)については、括弧書きで難燃助剤(三酸化アンチモン)の含有割合を表示するとともに、MFRの測定値を合わせて示している。また、難燃助剤マスターバッチごとに難燃助剤と高分子成分の含有割合が異なっているが、いずれの試料についても、難燃助剤マスターバッチに含有される高分子成分も合わせて、組成物全体に含有される高分子成分が100質量部となるように、各成分の配合量を表記している。
