Description

解重合方法Depolymerization method
 本発明は、解重合方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a depolymerization method.
 ポリアミド樹脂は、機械的特性、すなわち機械的強度、剛性や耐衝撃性等に優れ、かつ耐熱性、耐薬品性にも優れているため、従来から、衣料、産業資材、自動車、電気及び電子部品、その他の工業製品等の様々な産業分野で利用されている。
 一方、近年は、プラスティック業界においても資源循環社会への対応が求められており、ポリアミド樹脂にもリサイクル技術の確立が求められている。
Polyamide resins have excellent mechanical properties such as mechanical strength, rigidity and impact resistance, as well as excellent heat resistance and chemical resistance. , and other industrial products.
On the other hand, in recent years, the plastic industry is also required to respond to a resource recycling society, and the establishment of recycling technology is also required for polyamide resins.
 リサイクルには、一般にマテリアルリサイクル、ケミカルリサイクル、サーマルリサイクルの3つがある。現状、ポリアミド樹脂の利用の大半を占める自動車用途においては、廃自動車中のポリアミド樹脂は、そのほとんどがサーマルリサイクルとして燃やされており、資源として有効活用されておらず、前記ポリアミド樹脂を前記マテリアルリサイクルやケミカルリサイクルにより有効活用することが求められている。
 また、GHG(温室効果ガス)排出量の削減の観点からも、ポリアミド樹脂に対し、マテリアルリサイクル、ケミカルリサイクルが求められている。
There are generally three types of recycling: material recycling, chemical recycling, and thermal recycling. Currently, in automobile applications, which account for the majority of the use of polyamide resin, most of the polyamide resin in end-of-life vehicles is burned for thermal recycling and is not effectively used as a resource. There is a demand for effective utilization through chemical recycling and chemical recycling.
Also, from the viewpoint of reducing GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions, polyamide resins are required to undergo material recycling and chemical recycling.
 しかしながら、自動車用途のポリアミド樹脂組成物や成形品は、ポリアミド樹脂の他にも、例えば、ガラス繊維等の無機充填材、熱安定剤等の種々の添加剤、顔料、染料等を含んでいるため、マテリアルリサイクルにおいては、リサイクル後に実用上十分な機械物性を維持することが困難であるという問題点を有している。そのため、ポリアミド樹脂の解重合を行うことにより、モノマーであるジアミン、ジカルボン酸に分解し、これらのモノマーを再度重合することによりリサイクルするケミカルリサイクルが有望視されており、研究開発が進められている。 However, polyamide resin compositions and molded articles for automotive applications contain, in addition to polyamide resins, inorganic fillers such as glass fibers, various additives such as heat stabilizers, pigments, dyes, etc. However, in material recycling, it is difficult to maintain practically sufficient mechanical properties after recycling. Therefore, chemical recycling, in which polyamide resin is depolymerized to decompose it into monomers such as diamine and dicarboxylic acid, and these monomers are polymerized again for recycling, is considered promising, and research and development is underway. .
 前記ケミカルリサイクルに関する技術として、特許文献1には、ルイス酸触媒を用いてポリアミド樹脂をアンモノリシスにより分解してモノマーを製造する技術が提案されている。また、特許文献2には、リン酸水溶液を用いて、ガラス繊維含有ポリアミド樹脂組成物の成形品から、ポリアミド樹脂とガラス繊維とを分離し、さらにポリアミド樹脂をモノマーに分解する方法が提案されている。 As a technology related to chemical recycling, Patent Document 1 proposes a technology for producing monomers by decomposing a polyamide resin by ammonolysis using a Lewis acid catalyst. Further, Patent Document 2 proposes a method of separating a polyamide resin and glass fibers from a molded article of a glass fiber-containing polyamide resin composition using an aqueous solution of phosphoric acid, and further decomposing the polyamide resin into monomers. there is
特許第3571723号公報Japanese Patent No. 3571723 特開2000-80199号公報JP-A-2000-80199
 しかしながら、特許文献1に記載されている方法は、モノマー収率が低いという問題点を有している。
 また、特許文献2に記載されている方法は、ポリアミド66を用いた具体例ではポリアミド樹脂及びガラス繊維の溶解に200分もの時間を要している。さらに特許文献2には解重合方法に関する具体的な記述はなされておらず、さらにまた、前記ポリアミド樹脂とガラス繊維の溶解に200分もの時間がかかることから、ポリアミド樹脂組成物の成形品の溶解後に、さらにポリアミド樹脂の解重合を行うことを想定するとトータルの時間はさらに長くなり、実用性に欠けるという問題点を有している。
However, the method described in Patent Document 1 has a problem of low monomer yield.
Further, the method described in Patent Document 2 requires as much as 200 minutes to dissolve the polyamide resin and the glass fiber in a specific example using polyamide 66. Furthermore, in Patent Document 2, there is no specific description of the depolymerization method, and furthermore, it takes as long as 200 minutes to dissolve the polyamide resin and the glass fiber. Assuming that the polyamide resin is further depolymerized later, the total time becomes even longer, resulting in a problem of lack of practicality.
 上述したように、特許文献1、2に記載されている方法では、モノマー収率が低く、モノマーの回収や解重合を含めた時間が実用性に欠けるという問題点を有している。また、前記時間を短縮させるために高温、高圧等の条件で行うと、プロセスにかかるエネルギーが大きくなり、温室効果ガス(GHG)排出量の削減の観点からも実用的ではない、という問題点を有している。 As described above, the methods described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 have the problem that the yield of the monomer is low and the time including recovery and depolymerization of the monomer lacks practicality. In addition, if the process is performed under conditions such as high temperature and high pressure in order to shorten the time, the energy required for the process increases, and it is not practical from the viewpoint of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. have.
 そこで本発明においては、上述した従来技術の問題点に鑑み、モノマー収率が高く、解重合にかかるエネルギー効率に優れた、ポリアミド樹脂、ポリアミド樹脂組成物及び成形品の解重合方法を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, in the present invention, in view of the above-described problems of the prior art, a polyamide resin, a polyamide resin composition, and a method for depolymerizing a molded article, which have a high monomer yield and excellent energy efficiency for depolymerization are provided. With the goal.
 本発明者は、上述した従来技術の課題を解決するために鋭意検討を重ねた結果、所定の溶媒中で、ポリアミド樹脂、ポリアミド樹脂組成物、及びそれらの成形品を加熱して解重合することにより、上記課題を効果的に解決できることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。
 すなわち、本発明は、以下の通りである。
The present inventors have made intensive studies to solve the above-described problems of the prior art, and found that a polyamide resin, a polyamide resin composition, and a molded article thereof are heated and depolymerized in a predetermined solvent. As a result, the inventors have found that the above problems can be effectively solved, and have completed the present invention.
That is, the present invention is as follows.
