 本願は、2021年3月9日に日本出願された特願2021-036914号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a methacrylic resin composition for hot plate welding, use of the methacrylic resin composition for hot plate welding in hot plate welding, a welding method, and a vehicle member.
This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2021-036914 filed in Japan on March 9, 2021, the content of which is incorporated herein.
 メタクリル系樹脂は、その優れた外観、透明性、耐候性、耐薬品性等から、テールランプカバーや、ヘッドランプカバー、メーターパネルといった車両の内外装材料等の車両用部材;建築部材;洗面化粧台、浴槽、水洗便器等の住宅設備向け部材等、多くの用途に用いられている。
 メタクリル系樹脂をこれらの用途に用いる場合、かかる部材は、MS樹脂やABS樹脂等のようなスチレン系樹脂や、ポリカーボネート系樹脂等のメタクリル系樹脂以外の樹脂からなる部材と接合され、加工される。これらの部材を接合する方法として、熱板融着法が知られている(特許文献1~4)。
 熱板融着法とは、各部材の接合面をそれぞれ金属製の熱板に密着させることにより加熱、溶融し、熱板を退避させた後、樹脂が冷えて固まるまでに、他の部材と溶着(圧着)して接合する方法であり、高い溶着強度が得られる。また、熱板融着法は、大きな部品のどうしを溶着することが可能であり、接着剤を塗布する手間や接着剤を硬化させる時間を省くことができる等の利点があることから、生産性に優れた方法である。
Due to its excellent appearance, transparency, weather resistance, chemical resistance, etc., methacrylic resins are used as vehicle parts such as tail lamp covers, head lamp covers, meter panels, and other vehicle interior and exterior materials; building materials; , bathtubs, flush toilets, and other housing equipment.
When a methacrylic resin is used for these purposes, such a member is joined with a member made of a styrene resin such as an MS resin or an ABS resin, or a resin other than a methacrylic resin such as a polycarbonate resin, and processed. . A hot plate fusion method is known as a method for joining these members (Patent Documents 1 to 4).
In the hot plate fusion method, each member is heated and melted by bringing the joint surface of each member into close contact with a metal hot plate. It is a method of joining by welding (crimping), and high welding strength can be obtained. In addition, the hot plate fusion method is capable of welding large parts together, and has the advantage of eliminating the time and effort required to apply adhesive and harden the adhesive. is an excellent method for

 熱板融着法では、熱板温度を高くすることで、各部材の接合部分を短時間で溶融させることができる。しかし、熱板温度が高すぎると、各部材を熱板から引き離す際に、樹脂の一部が熱板からうまくはがれず、糸状に引き伸ばされる現象(いわゆる糸曳き)が見られ、製品外観が損なわれてしまうことがある。
 特許文献1~4に開示されているメタクリル系樹脂組成物は、熱板で溶融した後、熱板から引き離す際に、樹脂の一部が熱板からうまく剥離されず、糸曳きを生じたり、射出成形時に金型から成形体を引き離す際に、金型の表面に樹脂が残る現象(いわゆる剥離残渣)が見られたりすることがある。このような場合、部材の接合面が荒れてしまうことで製品外観が損なわれたり、熱板融着の熱板表面や、射出成形の金型表面の不要な洗浄作業が必要となったりするという課題があった。
In the hot plate fusion method, by increasing the temperature of the hot plate, it is possible to melt the joint portions of the respective members in a short time. However, if the hot plate temperature is too high, when the parts are separated from the hot plate, part of the resin cannot be peeled off from the hot plate and is stretched like a thread (so-called stringing), resulting in poor product appearance. It may get damaged.
In the methacrylic resin compositions disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 4, after being melted on the hot plate, when the resin is pulled away from the hot plate, part of the resin is not successfully peeled off from the hot plate, causing stringiness. When the molded product is separated from the mold during injection molding, a phenomenon in which resin remains on the surface of the mold (so-called peeling residue) may be observed. In such cases, the surface of the parts to be joined becomes rough and the appearance of the product is damaged, and unnecessary cleaning of the surface of the hot plate for hot plate fusion and the surface of the mold for injection molding is required. I had a problem.
 本発明はこれらの問題点を解決することを目的とする。すなわち、本発明の目的は、熱板融着時に熱板から樹脂組成物を引き離す際に糸曳きを生じにくく、射出成形時に金型表面に樹脂組成物の剥離残渣が生じにくい、すなわち、射出成形と熱板融着に好適な、熱板融着用メタクリル系樹脂組成物を提供することにある。 The purpose of the present invention is to solve these problems. That is, the object of the present invention is to prevent stringing from occurring when the resin composition is separated from the hot plate during hot plate fusion, and to prevent the resin composition from leaving residue on the mold surface during injection molding. The object of the present invention is to provide a methacrylic resin composition for hot plate welding suitable for hot plate welding.

 <脂肪酸>
 本発明における脂肪酸は、熱板融着時に熱板から樹脂組成物を引き離す際に糸曳きを生じにくくし、また、射出成形時に金型からの離型性を良好なものとし、金型表面に樹脂組成物の剥離残渣を生じにくくするために添加する成分である。すなわち、本発明における脂肪酸は、樹脂組成物において、熱板融着時に熱板から樹脂組成物を引き離す際に糸曳きを生じにくくし、さらに、射出成形の金型からの離型性に優れたものとするための成分である。
<Fatty acid>
The fatty acid in the present invention makes it difficult for stringing to occur when the resin composition is separated from the hot plate during hot plate fusion, and also improves mold releasability during injection molding. It is a component that is added to make it difficult for the resin composition to leave a peeling residue. That is, the fatty acid in the present invention makes it difficult for the resin composition to string when the resin composition is separated from the hot plate during hot plate fusion, and furthermore, the resin composition has excellent releasability from the mold for injection molding. It is an ingredient for making things.
 脂肪酸としては、分子内にカルボキシル基を少なくとも1個有する鎖状炭化水素化合物が挙げられる。分子内にカルボキシル基を少なくとも1個有する鎖状炭化水素化合物とは、カルボキシル基が結合する炭素原子が炭素鎖の構成原子となっている化合物を意味する。分子内にカルボキシル基を少なくとも1個有する鎖状炭化水素化合物中の炭素鎖は、飽和であっても不飽和であってもよく、また、直鎖状であっても分枝鎖状であってもよい。
 脂肪酸としては、カルボキシル基を1個有する鎖状炭化水素化合物が好ましい。カルボキシル基が1個であると、溶融混練や溶融成形の際に、メタクリル系重合体の反応性官能基との架橋反応による高分子量化が起こらず、流動性が低下しにくい。
Fatty acids include chain hydrocarbon compounds having at least one carboxyl group in the molecule. A chain hydrocarbon compound having at least one carboxyl group in the molecule means a compound in which the carbon atom to which the carboxyl group is bonded is a constituent atom of the carbon chain. The carbon chain in the chain hydrocarbon compound having at least one carboxyl group in the molecule may be saturated or unsaturated, and may be linear or branched. good too.
A chain hydrocarbon compound having one carboxyl group is preferable as the fatty acid. When the number of carboxyl groups is one, during melt-kneading or melt-molding, high molecular weight formation due to a cross-linking reaction with the reactive functional group of the methacrylic polymer does not occur, and fluidity is less likely to decrease.
 脂肪酸の10%重量減少温度の上限は特に限定されない。射出成形時の金型からの離型性や、得られた樹脂成形体の熱板融着性がより良好となる観点から、250℃以下が好ましく、240℃以下がより好ましく、230℃以下がさらに好ましい。10%重量減少温度が前記上限値以下であると、熱板融着時に、樹脂成形体に含まれる脂肪酸が溶融部に局在化して糸曳きが生じにくくなり、また、射出成形時に、メタクリル系樹脂組成物に含まれる脂肪酸が金型内で揮発しやすくなり、その結果、後から金型内に注入されたメタクリル系樹脂組成物に、金型表面に付着して液化又は凝縮した脂肪酸が拡散、移行することで、最終的に得られた樹脂成形体の表面及び表面の近傍に、脂肪酸が高い含有割合で存在するためと推察している。 The upper limit of the 10% weight loss temperature of fatty acids is not particularly limited. It is preferably 250° C. or lower, more preferably 240° C. or lower, more preferably 230° C. or lower, from the viewpoint of better releasability from the mold during injection molding and better hot plate fusion of the obtained resin molded product. More preferred. When the 10% weight loss temperature is equal to or lower than the above upper limit, the fatty acid contained in the resin molded body is localized in the melted portion during hot plate fusion, making it difficult for stringing to occur. The fatty acid contained in the resin composition is easily volatilized in the mold, and as a result, the liquefied or condensed fatty acid adhering to the mold surface diffuses into the methacrylic resin composition injected into the mold later. , and migrating, the fatty acid is present at a high content on the surface and in the vicinity of the surface of the finally obtained resin molding.
 脂肪酸の10%重量減少温度の下限は特に限定されない。射出成形時の金型からの離型性や、得られた樹脂成形体の熱板融着性がより良好となる観点から、150℃以上が好ましく、170℃以上がより好ましく、200℃以上がさらに好ましい。10%重量減少温度が前記下限値以上であると、熱板融着時に、脂肪酸が樹脂成形体から過剰に揮発して、熱板離型性が低下してしまうことが抑制され、また、射出成形時には、金型内で揮発した脂肪酸が金型表面に付着して液化又は凝縮しやすくなり、その結果、金型のガスベントからガスとして排出される脂肪酸の量が少なくなることが抑制され、得られた樹脂成形体の表面及び表面の近傍に脂肪酸が高い含有割合で存在できるためと推察している。 The lower limit of the 10% weight loss temperature of fatty acids is not particularly limited. It is preferably 150° C. or higher, more preferably 170° C. or higher, and 200° C. or higher from the viewpoint of better releasability from the mold during injection molding and better hot plate fusion of the obtained resin molded product. More preferred. If the 10% weight loss temperature is equal to or higher than the above lower limit, excessive volatilization of fatty acids from the resin molded article during hot plate fusion is suppressed, and deterioration of hot plate releasability is suppressed. During molding, the fatty acid volatilized in the mold adheres to the mold surface and tends to liquefy or condense. As a result, the amount of fatty acid discharged as gas from the gas vent of the mold is suppressed, It is presumed that this is because a high content of fatty acids can be present on the surface and in the vicinity of the surface of the molded resin article.
 脂肪酸の10%重量減少温度の上記の上限値及び下限値は任意に組み合わせることができる。例えば、脂肪酸の10%重量減少温度は150~250℃が好ましく、170~240℃がより好ましく、200~230℃がさらに好ましい。 The above upper limit and lower limit of the 10% weight loss temperature of fatty acids can be combined arbitrarily. For example, the 10% weight loss temperature of fatty acids is preferably 150 to 250°C, more preferably 170 to 240°C, even more preferably 200 to 230°C.
 脂肪酸の融点の下限は特に限定されない。射出成形時の金型からの離型性がより良好となり、さらに、得られた樹脂成形体の熱板融着性がより良好となる観点から、50℃以上が好ましく、55℃以上がより好ましく60℃以上がさらに好ましい。脂肪酸の融点が前記下限値以上であると、熱板融着時にメタクリル系樹脂組成物の粘度低下を抑制できるので、糸曳きが生じにくくなり、また、メタクリル系樹脂組成物に含まれる脂肪酸が、射出成形時に樹脂が金型に充填される際、溶融樹脂内で拡散しやすくなり、その結果、後から金型内に注入されたメタクリル系樹脂組成物に、金型表面に付着して液化又は凝縮した脂肪酸が拡散、移行することで、最終的に得られた樹脂成形体の表面及び表面の近傍に、脂肪酸が高い含有割合で存在するためと推察している。 The lower limit of the melting point of fatty acids is not particularly limited. The temperature is preferably 50° C. or higher, more preferably 55° C. or higher, from the viewpoint of better releasability from the mold during injection molding and better hot-plate fusion bonding of the resulting resin molded product. 60° C. or higher is more preferable. When the melting point of the fatty acid is at least the above lower limit, the decrease in the viscosity of the methacrylic resin composition during hot plate fusion can be suppressed, so stringing is less likely to occur, and the fatty acid contained in the methacrylic resin composition When the resin is filled into the mold during injection molding, it becomes easier to diffuse in the molten resin. It is speculated that the condensed fatty acid diffuses and migrates, resulting in a high fatty acid content on the surface and in the vicinity of the surface of the finally obtained resin molding.
 脂肪酸の融点の上限は特に限定されない。得られた樹脂成形体の熱板融着性がより良好となる観点から、100℃以下が好ましく、90℃以下がより好ましく、80℃以下がさらに好ましい。脂肪酸の融点が前記上限値以下であると、熱板融着時に樹脂成形体中の脂肪酸が有する糸曳き抑制の効果が得られやすくなり、また、射出成形時に金型内で揮発した脂肪酸が、金型表面で液化又は凝縮して、脂肪酸からなる被膜層が金型表面に形成されやすくなり、その結果、上述した作用、効果を得やすくなるためと推察している。 The upper limit of the melting point of fatty acids is not particularly limited. From the viewpoint of better hot-plate fusion bondability of the obtained resin molding, the temperature is preferably 100° C. or lower, more preferably 90° C. or lower, and even more preferably 80° C. or lower. When the melting point of the fatty acid is equal to or lower than the above upper limit, the effect of suppressing the stringing of the fatty acid in the resin molded product during hot plate fusion is easily obtained, and the fatty acid volatilized in the mold during injection molding is It is presumed that the fatty acid is liquefied or condensed on the mold surface to facilitate the formation of a film layer composed of fatty acids on the mold surface, and as a result, the above-described functions and effects can be easily obtained.
 脂肪酸の融点の上記の上限値及び下限値は任意に組み合わせることができる。例えば、脂肪酸の融点は、50~100℃が好ましく、55~90℃がより好ましく、60~80℃がさらに好ましい。 The above upper limit and lower limit of the melting point of fatty acids can be combined arbitrarily. For example, the melting point of the fatty acid is preferably 50-100°C, more preferably 55-90°C, even more preferably 60-80°C.
 脂肪酸の分子量は特に限定されない。分子量が100~500の脂肪酸を用いることができ、200~400がより好ましい。脂肪酸の分子量が前記下限値以上であれば、脂肪酸の揮発性が低いため、射出成形するときの金型からの離型性や、熱板融着性の向上に対して十分な効果が得られる。脂肪酸の分子量が前記上限値以下であれば、メタクリル系重合体との相溶性が高いため、射出成形するときの金型からの離型性や熱板融着するときの熱板からの糸曳きが抑制され、また、熱板や金型から離す際に熱板や金型表面への脂肪酸の残存が少なくなるため、熱板や金型の表面汚れ、得られた樹脂成形体の曇りが発生しにくい。 The molecular weight of fatty acids is not particularly limited. Fatty acids with a molecular weight of 100-500 can be used, with 200-400 being more preferred. When the molecular weight of the fatty acid is at least the above lower limit, the volatility of the fatty acid is low, and sufficient effects can be obtained for improving releasability from the mold during injection molding and hot plate fusion bonding. . If the molecular weight of the fatty acid is equal to or less than the above upper limit, the compatibility with the methacrylic polymer is high, so that it is easy to release from the mold during injection molding and stringing from the hot plate during hot plate fusion. Also, when the hot plate and mold are separated from the hot plate and the mold, less fatty acid remains on the surface of the hot plate and mold, so the surface of the hot plate and mold becomes dirty, and the obtained resin molding becomes cloudy. hard to do.
 脂肪酸の炭素数は特に限定されない。好ましくは、10~22である。炭素数が前記下限値以上であれば、脂肪酸の揮発性が低いため、射出成形するときの金型からの離型性や、熱板融着時に熱板から引き離す際に、糸曳きが生じにくくなりやすい。炭素数が前記上限値以下であれば、メタクリル系重合体との相溶性が高いため、金型からの離型性と熱板融着性に優れ、また、熱板や金型から引き離す際に熱板や金型表面への脂肪酸の残存が少なくなるため、熱板や金型の表面汚れや、得られた樹脂成形体の曇りが発生しにくい。 The number of carbon atoms in fatty acids is not particularly limited. Preferably, it is 10-22. If the number of carbon atoms is at least the above lower limit, the volatility of the fatty acid is low, so that stringiness is less likely to occur when releasing from the mold during injection molding and when separating from the hot plate during hot plate fusion bonding. Prone. If the number of carbon atoms is equal to or less than the above upper limit, the compatibility with the methacrylic polymer is high, so the releasability from the mold and hot plate fusion are excellent, and when separating from the hot plate and the mold, Since the amount of fatty acid remaining on the surface of the hot plate and mold is reduced, the surface of the hot plate and mold is less likely to be stained, and the obtained resin molding is less likely to be cloudy.
 脂肪酸としては、例えば、ラウリル酸、パルミチン酸、ステアリン酸、ミリスチン酸、ベヘン酸のような飽和脂肪酸や、オレイン酸、リノール酸のような不飽和脂肪酸が挙げられ、ステアリン酸、パルミチン酸、ミリスチン酸が好ましい。
 脂肪酸は、1種を単独で用いてもよく、2種以上を併用してもよい。
Examples of fatty acids include saturated fatty acids such as lauric acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, myristic acid and behenic acid, and unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid and linoleic acid. is preferred.
A fatty acid may be used individually by 1 type, and may use 2 or more types together.
 本発明のメタクリル系樹脂組成物中の脂肪酸の含有量は特に限定されない。メタクリル系重合体100質量部に対して、0.01~1質量部とすることができ、0.1~0.3質量部がより好ましい。脂肪酸の含有割合が前記下限値以上であれば、射出成形するときの金型からの離型性や、熱板融着性が向上しやすい。前記上限値以下であれば、熱板や金型から引き離す際に熱板や金型表面への脂肪酸の残存が少なくなるため、熱板や金型の表面汚れや、得られた樹脂成形体の曇りが発生しにくい。 The content of fatty acid in the methacrylic resin composition of the present invention is not particularly limited. It can be 0.01 to 1 part by mass, more preferably 0.1 to 0.3 part by mass, with respect to 100 parts by mass of the methacrylic polymer. When the fatty acid content is at least the above lower limit, releasability from molds during injection molding and hot-plate fusion bonding are likely to be improved. If it is less than the above upper limit, the amount of fatty acid remaining on the surface of the hot plate and the mold is reduced when the hot plate and the mold are separated, so the surface of the hot plate and the mold is dirty, and the obtained resin molded body is reduced. Cloudiness is less likely to occur.
