- the thermoplastic resin in the present disclosure is preferably a polyamide or a polyester, and particularly preferred specific examples are polybutylene terephthalate, polyethylene terephthalate, and nylon 6 polyamide. , nylon 66, etc.
- Organic fibrous filler those derived from known plant fibers can be used. Specifically, but not limited to, cellulose, cellulose fiber, cellulose nanofiber, lignocellulose, lignocellulose fiber, lignocellulose nanofiber, pulp, rayon, acetate, cupra, cotton, hemp, jute fiber, etc. can be used. Among them, celluloses are preferably used from the viewpoint of having a stable surface structure and being easy to modify, and these plant fiber-derived fibrous fillers may be mixed.
- the length of the fibrous filler can be 50 nm or more and 500 ⁇ m or less. If it is shorter than 50 nm, it will aggregate violently, making it difficult to disperse it during hot melt mixing. If it is longer than 500 ⁇ m, the viscosity during hot melting will be too high, making molding difficult. From the viewpoint of achieving both inhibition of aggregation and inhibition of high viscosity, a length of 100 nm or more and 100 ⁇ m or less is even more preferable.
- the organic fibrous filler may be surface-modified in advance, and alkoxysilanes such as epoxy group-containing alkoxysilanes and amino group-containing alkoxysilanes can be used as surface modifiers, as they react easily with additives containing maleic anhydride structures.
- alkoxysilanes such as epoxy group-containing alkoxysilanes and amino group-containing alkoxysilanes can be used as surface modifiers, as they react easily with additives containing maleic anhydride structures.
- Surface modification methods include dispersing organic fibrous fillers in a solvent such as water or alcohol to form a dispersion, dropping a specified amount of the alkoxysilanes into the dispersion while stirring, and then heating the dispersion in a heating furnace to volatilize the solvent, or stirring and mixing the organic fibrous fillers and the alkoxysilanes in a known dry blending device such as a Henschel mixer.
- the amount of alkoxysilanes used for surface modification is not limited, but can be 0.1% by weight to 2% by weight based on the weight of the organic fibrous filler.
- the amount is less than 0.1% by weight, the amount of alkoxysilanes is too small, and the effect of the reaction with the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive due to surface modification is insufficient, and if the amount is more than 2% by weight, agglomerates are formed due to the reaction between the alkoxysilanes themselves, which can be a factor in preventing uniform dispersion of the organic fibrous filler.
- the epoxy groups or amino groups react easily with the ring-open structure of the maleic anhydride structure in the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive described below, making it possible to achieve even higher strength than when an organic fibrous filler that is not surface-modified is used.

- maleic anhydride structure-containing compounds that function in this way include maleic anhydride-styrene copolymers, maleic anhydride-vinyl acetate copolymers, maleic anhydride-vinyl benzoate copolymers, poly(ethylene-alt-maleic anhydride), polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride, poly(isobutylene-alt-maleic anhydride), poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic anhydride), polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene-lan-butylene)-block-polystyrene-graft-maleic anhydride, (-)-2,3-bis[(2R,5R)-2,5-dimethylphosphorano]maleic anhydride, citraconic anhydride, and cyclobutane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic dianhydride.
- the amount of the maleic anhydride structure-containing material added can be 0.5% by weight to 7% by weight based on the total weight of the resin composition, depending on the blending ratio of the organic fibrous filler to the resin composition. If it is less than 0.5% by weight, sufficient effect on improving the strength described above cannot be obtained. If it is more than 7% by weight, a large amount of maleic anhydride structures that do not form an open ring structure and do not react with the organic fibrous filler or part of the thermoplastic resin will be contained. These unreacted maleic anhydride structures become foreign matter that does not perform its function and can become the starting point for cracks, which is not preferable. From the viewpoint of the maleic anhydride structure reacting with the organic fibrous filler and thermoplastic resin in the right amount, 1.25% by weight to 5% by weight is even more preferable.
- the method for producing the resin composition in the embodiment can be produced by mixing the thermoplastic resin, organic fibrous filler, and maleic acid structure-containing substance in specified amounts, forming a mixture, hot melt mixing, and cooling. To mix, each composition is weighed into a container or bag, and mixed manually using a spatula or a rod-shaped jig that can be used for stirring, or a rotary mixer such as a Henschel mixer is used to mix the components approximately uniformly. From the viewpoint of ease of the above mixing process, the thermoplastic resin and the maleic acid structure-containing substance are preferably in powder or pellet form.
- the approximately uniformly mixed powder mixture can be mixed using a single-shaft kneader, a twin-shaft kneader, a roll kneader, a kneader, a Banbury mixer, or the like, and can also be hot melt mixed by combining them.
- the mixture can be cooled to a temperature at which pulverization is possible, to obtain the resin composition according to the present disclosure.
- other additives such as pigments and flame retardants can be added to the mixture to be added to the hot melt mixer as appropriate depending on the application.
- the incorporation of organic fibrous filler results in a higher biomass content than conventional resin molded products, which contributes to reducing the burden on the environment, while at the same time maintaining strength through the crosslinking reaction between the organic fibrous filler and the thermoplastic resin, resulting in an excellent molded product that is both environmentally friendly and strong.
- Example 1 ⁇ Production of Resin Composition>
- a thermoplastic resin 43.9 parts by weight of nylon 6, a type of polyamide, 55 parts by weight of cellulose fiber (Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd. (KC Flock (W-100G)) as the organic fibrous filler, and 1.1 parts by weight of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride as a maleic anhydride structure-containing additive were prepared. These were charged into one polyethylene container and mixed by stirring manually for 5 minutes using a spatula.
- the mixture was then successively charged into the hopper of a twin-screw kneader set at 260°C, while being extruded at a rotation speed of 100 rpm to perform hot melt mixing, and the molten mixture was collected from the discharge port to obtain the resin composition according to Example 1.
- AFM-IR measurement was performed to analyze the molecular structure of the resin composition.
- a piece of the resin composition sliced by a microtome for TEM observation was observed with an optical microscope to determine an observation spot, and an AFM image and infrared absorption spectrum reflection measurement were performed at the spot to perform a nano-scale structural analysis.
- Figure 1 shows an example of an AFM image of the resin composition in Example 1.
- Figure 2 shows an example of a spectrum obtained by AFM-IR measurement of the resin composition in Example 1.
- the boundary between the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive and the resin is unclear, and it can be seen that the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive is chemically reacting.
- polyamide resin is impregnated between the fibers of the cellulose fiber, and Figure 2 shows that a peak of a carbonyl group that is not derived from the polyamide, which is the raw material resin, is confirmed in the resin phase.
- the maleic anhydride structure in the polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride is opened, and the ring-opened structure reacts with the hydroxyl group on the surface of the cellulose fiber. Furthermore, the ring-opened structure of another maleic anhydride structure in the molecule of the polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride having the above maleic anhydride structure reacts with the amino group at the end of the polymer chain of the polyamide. This chemically bonds the cellulose fiber and polyamide, improving compatibility and allowing the polyamide resin to permeate between the fibers of the cellulose fiber.
- the carbonyl groups not derived from polyamide confirmed in the spectrum from AFM-IR measurement, are due to ester bonds formed by the ring-opening structure of the additive containing a maleic anhydride structure, indicating that the cellulose fiber and polyamide are chemically bonded.
- Example 2 The embodiment was the same as Example 1, except that an epoxy surface-modified organic fibrous filler was used as the organic fibrous filler.
- the epoxy surface-modified organic fibrous filler was produced by the following method.
- the organic fibrous filler was a surface-modified organic fibrous filler, and the surface modification was carried out with an epoxy group-containing alkoxysilane.
- 1,000 parts by weight of cellulose fiber (Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd. (KC Flock (W-100G)) was prepared as an organic fibrous filler, and 50 parts by weight of 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd. KBM403) was prepared as an epoxy group-containing alkoxysilane.
- Example 3 The same procedure as in Example 2 was used, except that 68.9 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 30 parts by weight of epoxy surface-modified cellulose fiber was used as the organic fibrous filler.
- Example 4 The same procedure as in Example 2 was used, except that 8.9 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 90 parts by weight of epoxy surface-modified cellulose fiber was used as the organic fibrous filler.
- Example 5 The same as in Example 2, except that 43.9 parts by weight of nylon 66, a type of polyamide, was prepared as the thermoplastic resin.
- Example 6 The same procedure as in Example 2 was used, except that 44.5 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 0.5 parts by weight of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride was used as the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive.
- Example 7 The same procedure as in Example 2 was used, except that 38.0 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 7.0 parts by weight of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride was used as the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive.
- Example 8 The procedure was the same as in Example 2, except that 43.75 parts by weight of nylon 6 was prepared as the thermoplastic resin, and 1.25 parts by weight of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride was prepared as the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive.
- Example 9 The same procedure as in Example 2 was used, except that 40.0 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 5.0 parts by weight of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride was used as the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive.
- Example 10 This is the same as Example 1, except that poly(isobutylene-alt-maleic anhydride) was used as the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive.
- Example 11 This was the same as in Example 1, except that amino-surface-modified cellulose fiber (KC Flock (W-100G) by Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd.) was used as the organic fibrous filler.
- the amino-surface-modified cellulose fiber was produced in the same manner as in Example 2, using 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (KBM903 by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.) as the amino group-containing alkoxysilane.
- thermoplastic resin 45 parts by weight of nylon 6 was prepared, and as the organic fibrous filler, 55 parts by weight of the cellulose fiber (Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd. (KC Flock (W-100G)) was prepared. The same procedure as in Example 1 was repeated, except that no maleic anhydride structure-containing additive was added.
- Figure 3 shows an example of an AFM image of the resin composition in Comparative Example 1.
- Figure 4 shows an example of a spectrum obtained by AFM-IR measurement of the resin composition in Comparative Example 1. That is, the boundary between the cellulose fiber and the resin is confirmed in Figure 3, and the AFM-IR measurement spectrum at that interface is shown in Figure 4.
- a broad peak specific to the carbonyl group derived from the ester bond and not derived from the amide was confirmed at the boundary between the cellulose fiber and the resin in Example 1, but it can be seen that this is not confirmed in Figure 4. Therefore, it can be seen that in this comparative example, a structure that directly bonds the resin and cellulose fiber, as confirmed in Example 1, is not formed.
- Example 12 The same procedure as in Example 1 was used, except that 73.9 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 25 parts by weight of epoxy surface-modified cellulose fiber was used as the organic fibrous filler.
- Example 13 The same procedure as in Example 1 was used, except that 6.9 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 92 parts by weight of epoxy surface-modified cellulose fiber was used as the organic fibrous filler.
- Example 14 The same procedure as in Example 1 was used, except that 44.7 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 0.3 parts by weight of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride was used as the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive.
- Example 15 The same procedure as in Example 1 was used, except that 36.0 parts by weight of nylon 6 was used as the thermoplastic resin, and 9.0 parts by weight of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride was used as the maleic anhydride structure-containing additive.
- the resin composition according to the present disclosure can be injection molded.
- the resin composition was pulverized in a pulverizer to form pellets, and then the pellets were used to prepare dumbbell test pieces of the resin composition using an injection molding machine (180AD manufactured by Japan Steel Works, Ltd.).
- the conditions for preparing the dumbbell test pieces were a resin temperature of 240°C, a mold temperature of 80°C, an injection speed of 60 mm/s, and a holding pressure of 100 MPa.
- the shape of the test piece was a dumbbell test piece of JIS K7139 dumbbell test piece type A for measuring the elastic modulus and elongation at break.
- the test pieces of the resin composition thus obtained were evaluated by the following method.
- a resin composition with a modulus of elasticity and elongation at break of A is designated as A, which is a resin composition with particularly excellent strength.
- a resin composition having excellent strength is classified as B, if neither the elastic modulus nor the elongation at break is A, but neither is C.
- Those with either modulus of elasticity or elongation at break of B or higher are classified as C, It was decided.
- a resin composition having both an elastic modulus and an elongation at break of C or less is classified as having poor strength as D.
- Table 1 in Figure 5 shows the parts by weight of each raw material in Examples 1 to 8 and the evaluation results.
- Table 2 in Figure 6 shows the parts by weight of each raw material in Examples 9 to 15 and the Comparative Example.
- Examples 1, 2, and 11 show that if the surface of the cellulose fiber is appropriately modified when adding a substance containing a maleic anhydride structure, the effect is even more pronounced, resulting in a resin composition with even greater strength.
- Examples 3, 4, 12, and 13 show that the amount of organic fibrous filler added is preferably 30% by weight or more and 90% by weight or less, resulting in a resin composition with excellent strength.
- Examples 2 and 5 show that the resin to which this disclosure can be applied is not limited to the type of polyamide, and high strength can be achieved.
- the amount of the maleic anhydride structure-containing substance to be added can be 0.5% by weight or more and 7% by weight or less, and that 1.25% by weight or more and 5% by weight or less is particularly preferable.
- Examples 1 and 10 show that multiple types of maleic anhydride structure-containing materials can be used.
- the resin composition disclosed herein has excellent strength and can be used in a variety of environmentally friendly industrial products.
