る。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various methods have been used to control surface properties of ABS resins.
For example, by using rubber particles having a large rubber particle diameter, rubber particles on the surface (of course, the same applies to particles inside)
The characteristics of the surface have been controlled by enlarging the shape, or conversely, reducing the shape of the surface and internal rubber particles by using rubber particles having a small rubber particle diameter.
That is, in the prior art, it is common to control the rubber particle diameter from the ABS resin manufacturing process. Therefore, the influence of the control of the rubber particle diameter appears not only on the surface but also on the impact and rigidity of the molded product. It was a big problem in terms of balance. For example, when rubber particles having a large particle diameter are used to impart a matting property, the matting property of the surface is excellent, but on the other hand, there is a problem that the impact strength is reduced.
In addition, when the rubber particle diameter is reduced to impart gloss to the surface, the gloss is excellent, but the impact strength is reduced, so that a large amount of the rubber component is required. As another method for controlling the surface morphology of the ABS resin, there is a method of specifying molding conditions at the molding stage. For example, it has been practiced to use a high mold temperature during injection molding to maintain high gloss. In this case, the molding conditions are limited,
The molding injection cycle lengthens, leaving significant productivity issues.

In the present invention, not only the control in the production of the raw material resin but also the surface characteristics can be strictly controlled in the extrusion step.

明に至った。In the present invention, the morphology (rubber particle morphology) of the rubber particles observed on the surface of the molded product is controlled by using a technical means completely different from the conventional one. That is, in the present invention, at least a styrene-based monomer and an acrylonitrile-based monomer, and a raw material containing a rubber-like polymer are supplied to the polymerization step, and a part or all of the monomer is polymerized to produce rubber-like polymer particles. After the step of polymerizing the polymer including (rubber particle) formation, the mixed solution containing the polymer, the unreacted monomer and / or the solvent is heated and introduced into the reduced pressure chamber simultaneously or after the heating, and the monomer and And / or a separation / recovery step of separating the solvent from the resin component, and a molded product (molded product 1) obtained by injection-molding the resin that has gone through the separation / recovery process is formed of rubber particles observed on the surface of the molded product. home,
Particle A having a ratio a / b of major axis a to minor axis b of 1.5 or less and particle B having a ratio a / b of major axis a to minor axis b of 5 or greater
have. (As a method for obtaining the molded article 1 in the present invention, the morphology of the resin obtained by polymerization is measured. Therefore, a sample valve is provided at the outlet of the separation / recovery step, the resin is taken out in a string form, and cooled in a water bath. To obtain a molded product 1 by injection molding.) After the resin is separated and recovered, the particles A are extruded by a twin-screw extruder having a shearing effect. -It was not known at all that the amount of the particles B could be controlled. The present inventors have found that rubber particles, particle A, observed near the surface of a molded product
It has been found that the gloss of the surface of a molded product can be arbitrarily controlled by an unconventional method of adjusting the ratio of rubber particles having different forms, ie, particles B and particles B, by an extruder, and have reached the present invention.

The rubber particles that exist
When observing the plane parallel to the surface of the molded article with an electron micrograph by an ultra-thin section method, it has at least two types of particles A and B, and is observed by an electron micrograph by an ultra-thin section method. An ABS resin in which the area of the particles A is at least 10% or more and the area of the particles B is 0.01 to 90% when the total area of the rubber particles is 100%, after leaving the [II] separation and recovery step, In a twin-screw extruder having a loading disk or a rotor, a portion where water is added to the resin between a separation and recovery outlet and a portion (kneading zone) where the kneading disk or the rotor is installed, and the added water is evaporated. A molded product obtained by applying a shear using an extruder provided at the same time as or immediately before the entrance of the kneading zone, and a portion for evaporating the added water. The surface of the molded product 2) was observed in the same manner as described above, that is, a parallel plane having a depth of 0.5 to 1.5 μm from the surface of the molded product was observed with an electron micrograph by an ultra-thin section method, and the area of the particles B was determined as described above. In this method, the ratio of particles B observed in the molded product 1 is controlled to be 0 to 95% when the ratio is 100%. The proportion of water added at this time is 0 to 15 parts by weight, preferably 0.1 to 10 parts by weight, more preferably 0.5 to 7 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the resin extruded per unit time. . If the amount of water exceeds 15 parts by weight, the processing capacity of the extruder is reduced, and the productivity is undesirably affected. Further, by adding and evaporating water immediately before the kneading zone and lowering the resin temperature at the outlet of the recovery step by 0 to 60% immediately before the kneading zone, a sufficient shearing force is given in the kneading zone. When water is not added, the temperature of the extruder cylinder is reduced by 0 to 60% of the resin temperature at the outlet of the recovery step at the portion where the kneading disk is installed or immediately before the portion where the kneading disk is installed. As in the case where is added, a sufficient shearing force is applied to the resin. However, when the resin temperature is reduced by the temperature of the cylinder, the size of the extruder is limited, and in the case of a large extruder, the resin temperature cannot be controlled by the cylinder temperature.

と剪断力がかからなくなる。Here, the groove depth (d) of the screw element represents the distance from the bottom to the top of the screw element. This is because unnecessary shearing is not applied to portions other than the kneading zone. By using the above screw element, deterioration of the resin is suppressed, and reduction in hue and the like is suppressed. If such a screw element is less than 50% of the effective screw length, the propulsion force of the resin will decrease, and the residence time distribution of the resin in the extruder will be widened and the residence time will be prolonged, leading to deterioration of the resin. When the screw element exceeds 95% of the effective screw length, no shearing force is applied.

The screw element has the ability to push the resin in the flow direction or the ability to apply pressure by flowing backward. The kneading disk in the present invention is a part of the screw of the twin-screw extruder similar to the screw element, and is a mixing unit for kneading. There are various types of kneading discs such as a two-way disc and a three-way disc. The rotor has an oval cross section, and the flight consists of forward and reverse threads. That is, the combination of two kneading disks consisting of a forward thread and a reverse thread is continuous and fixed. The combination of the screw element and the kneading disk / rotor makes it possible to provide the extruder with the desired performance.

性にとって極めて重要である。The morphology of the surface of the molded product affects the surface characteristics of the molded product. Even if the average particle diameter of the rubber particles produced from the polymerization step is the same, if the area ratio of the particles B is small, the gloss of the surface of the molded product is improved, Conversely, when the area ratio of the particles B increases, the surface of the molded product is matted. In the present invention, not only the adjustment of the rubber particle diameter from the polymerization step, but also the characteristics of the molded product surface can be arbitrarily adjusted from the same raw material ABS resin by controlling the ratio of the area of the particles B by an extruder. The industrial benefits are huge. In the conventional method of controlling the gloss by adjusting the rubber particles of the raw material, the production process is very long. Particularly, when changing the grade from a matting resin to a high gloss resin, the AB process is performed from the first step of the production.
Over time, products with different glosses are inevitably produced to alter the properties of the S-resin. In a normal industrial plant, if the residence time of all processes is 4 hours, the above non-genuine product will be produced for about 4 to 12 hours. During this period, the products are not only half-finished but also vary in gloss, and are extremely limited in use. Industrially, in order to produce a wide variety of grades in one plant, it is extremely important for the productivity of the plant that irregular products are generated at the time of grade exchange.

Based on the fact that it is possible to control the surface properties of the molded article. The value of 0.5 to 1.5 μ near the surface is based on the finding that the state of existence of the rubber particles is substantially constant without being dependent on the depth during this depth. . That is, when the depth is shallower than 0.5 μm, the morphology of the rubber particles varies greatly, and when the depth exceeds 1.5 μm,
Since the state of existence changes depending on the depth, it is not suitable for specifying the morphology of the rubber particles correlated with the surface characteristics.
