【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、熱可塑性樹脂を主成分とする熱可塑性樹脂成形材料及びこの熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を成形した樹脂成形品に関するものであり、特に、高温高湿で使用される樹脂成形品、例えば、自動車部品を成形するのに好適に用いられる熱可塑性樹脂成形材料に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
ポリブチレンテレフタレート(PBT)やポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)の樹脂成形品は高強度で耐熱性に優れ、しかも焼却してもダイオキシンが発生せずに環境汚染が少ないために耐環境性にも優れるものであり、自動車部品として使用されており、特に、最近では自動車の軽量化のニーズに伴い、金属部品の樹脂成形品への代替が進められており、高温高湿となるエンジンルーム内に配置される自動車部品としてもPBTやPETの樹脂成形品が使用されてきている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかし、PBTやPETの樹脂成形品は高温高湿下に長時間曝されると、PBTやPETの加水分解反応が進んで分子量の低下が起こり、強度低下を引き起こす恐れがあり、割れ等の破損が発生するものであった。特に、自動車のエンジンルーム内で使用される自動車部品(例えば、各種センサー、スロットルボディ、ギヤケース、アンチロックブレーキシステム制御装置のハウジング等、いろいろあるが、これらに限定するものではない)では高温高湿下に加えて走行による振動も加わるものであり、上記の強度低下は大きな問題となっていた。そこで、PBTやPETの加水分解反応を防止するために、加水分解反応が起こりにくい末端カルボン酸量が少ないPBTやPETを使用したりブロム系エポキシ樹脂等の難燃剤をPBTやPETに添加したりすることが行われているが、加水分解反応の防止に十分な効果がなかった。
【0004】
また、PBTの樹脂成形品は上記以外にPETの樹脂成形品よりも表面光沢が少なく外観が劣るという問題を有するものであり、また、PETの樹脂成形品は上記以外にPBTの樹脂成形品よりも引張り時の伸びが小さい(柔軟性が低い)という問題を有し、割れやすいものであった。
【0005】
本発明は上記の点に鑑みてなされたものであり、加水分解による強度低下が小さく、また表面光沢が多くて外観に優れ、また引張り時の伸びが大きい樹脂成形品を形成することができる熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を提供することを目的とするものである。また、本発明は、加水分解による強度低下が起こらず、また表面光沢が多くて外観に優れ、また引張り時の伸びが大きい樹脂成形品を提供することを目的とするものである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の請求項1に係る熱可塑性樹脂成形材料は、ポリブチレンテレフタレートとポリエチレンテレフタレートとガラス繊維とオルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂とを含有し、ポリブチレンテレフタレートとポリエチレンテレフタレートを質量比90:10〜70:30で配合し、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂を全量に対して0.5〜7質量%含有して成ることを特徴とするものである。
【0007】
また、本発明の請求項2に係る熱可塑性樹脂成形材料は、請求項1に加えて、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂のエポキシ当量が150〜250であることを特徴とするものである。
【0008】
また、本発明の請求項3に係る熱可塑性樹脂成形材料は、請求項1又は2に加えて、ポリブチレンテレフタレートの末端カルボン酸量が35eq/t以下であることを特徴とするものである。
【0009】
また、本発明の請求項4に係る熱可塑性樹脂成形材料は、請求項1乃至3のいずれかに加えて、無機フィラーを含有して成ることを特徴とするものである。
【0010】
また、本発明の請求項5に係る樹脂成形品は、請求項1乃至4のいずれかに記載の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を成形して成ることを特徴とするものである。
【0011】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施の形態を説明する。
【0012】
本発明の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料は、熱可塑性樹脂成分としてPBTとPETを含有し、また、PBTやPETの加水分解を防止する目的でオルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂を含有し、さらに補強材としてガラス繊維を含有するものである。また、本発明の樹脂成形品は上記の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を成形することにより形成されるものであるが、この樹脂成形品の表面光沢を多くして外観を優れるものとし、且つ引張り時の伸びを大きくして割れにくくするために、PBTとPETを質量比90:10〜70:30で配合するものである。すなわち、熱可塑性樹脂成分中に70〜90質量%のPBTを配合し、熱可塑性樹脂成分中に10〜30質量%のPETを配合するものである。PETの配合量が熱可塑性樹脂成分中において10質量%よりも少なくなると、相対的にPBTの配合量が多くなって樹脂成形品にPBTの特性が強く現れるので、樹脂成形品の表面光沢が少なくなって外観が劣るという問題が生じるものである。また、PETの配合量が熱可塑性樹脂成分中において30質量%よりも多くなると、相対的にPBTの配合量が少なくなって樹脂成形品にPETの特性が強く現れるので、引張り時の伸びが小さくなって柔軟性が低下し、樹脂成形品に割れが発生するという問題が生じるものである。
【0013】
本発明ではPBTやPETの加水分解を防止する目的でオルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂を配合するものであり、これにより、PBTやPETの耐加水分解性が向上するものである。従って、本発明の樹脂成形品は高温高湿下に長時間曝されてもPBTやPETの加水分解反応が進みにくくなるものであり、PBTやPETの加水分解による強度低下が小さくなってこの強度低下による割れ等の破損がなくなるものであり、特に、高温高湿下に加えて走行による振動も加わるような自動車のエンジンルーム内の自動車部品として好適に用いることができるものである。尚、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂は他のエポキシ樹脂に比べて、PBTやPETの加水分解を防止する効果が高いものである。また、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂は分子的に立体構造上、位置障害が起こりPBT分子と反応が起こり難く反応は緩やかに進むため、配合時等にゲル化等が起こりにくく成形不良等が発生しないが、他のエポキシ樹脂は位置障害が起こり難く反応はスムーズに進むため反応が一気に進みすぎて樹脂の流動性が失われ、少量の添加でもゲル化が発生して成形不良等が生じる恐れがある。
【0014】
また、本発明で用いるPBTはその末端カルボン酸量が35eq/t以下であることが好ましい。PBTの末端カルボン酸量はPBT分子の末端にあるカルボキシル基(−COOH)の量であって、PBT(試料)の1t中に含まれているカルボキシル基のモル数で表されるものである。末端カルボン酸量は通常、酸−アルカリ滴定法により測定することができる。PBTの末端のカルボキシル基はPBTの加水分解の原因となるものであり、このカルボキシル基が少ない方がPBTの加水分解が起こりにくいものである。そこで、本発明ではPBTの末端カルボン酸量が35eq/t以下のPBTを用いることによって、PBTの加水分解をさらに少なくし、PBTの加水分解による樹脂成形品の強度低下をさらに小さくするものである。従って、PBTの末端カルボン酸量が35eq/tよりも大きくなると、PBTの加水分解が多くなってPBTの加水分解による樹脂成形品の大きな強度低下が生じる恐れがある。尚、PETの末端カルボン酸量はPBTの場合と同様の理由で35eq/t以下であることが好ましい。また、PBT及びPETの末端カルボン酸量は小さいほど好ましいので、その下限は0である。
【0015】
また、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂はそのエポキシ当量が150〜250であることが好ましい。エポキシ当量はエポキシ樹脂の分子量をそのエポキシ樹脂の分子中に存在するエポキシ基の数で割った値であって、エポキシ基1g当量あたりのエポキシ樹脂の重量(g数)を意味するものである。オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂のエポキシ当量が150より小さいと、上記熱可塑性樹脂成分とオルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂のコンパウンド(混合)時に、PBTやPETとオルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂の反応が進みすぎて発泡などを起こして流動性を失ってしまい、成形材料として使用することができなくなる恐れがある。また、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂のエポキシ当量が250より大きいと、PBTやPETの加水分解を防止することが難しくなり、PBTやPETの加水分解による樹脂成形品の大きな強度低下が生じる恐れがある。
【0016】
本発明で用いるガラス繊維は従来から樹脂成形材料に補強材として配合されている公知のものを使用することができ、例えば、繊維長1.0〜4.0mm、直径10〜14μmのものを使用することができる。また、本発明の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料にはガラス繊維の他に樹脂成形品の補強を目的として無機フィラーを配合することができる。無機フィラーの種類は従来から樹脂成形材料に配合されているものであれば特に限定はされないが、例えば、タルクやマイカを例示することができる。
【0017】
本発明の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料において、上記の熱可塑性樹脂成分は熱可塑性樹脂成形材料の全量に対して50〜90質量%にするのが好ましく、また、上記のガラス繊維は熱可塑性樹脂成形材料の全量に対して5〜35質量%にするのが好ましい。熱可塑性樹脂成分やガラス繊維の配合量が上記の範囲から逸脱すると、本発明の樹脂成形品が強度や柔軟性や可撓性等の低下を起こす恐れがある。また、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂は本発明の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料の全量に対して0.5〜7質量%配合するものである。オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂の配合量が熱可塑性樹脂成形材料の全量に対して0.5質量%よりも少ないと、上記の配合量で配合されるPBTやPETに対するオルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂が少なくなって、PBTやPETの加水分解を十分に防止することができず、PBTやPETの加水分解反応による樹脂成形品の強度低下が大きくなるものである。また、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂の配合量が熱可塑性樹脂成形材料の全量に対して7質量%よりも多いと、相対的に上記の熱可塑性樹脂成分やガラス繊維の配合量が少なくなって樹脂成形品の強度が低下するものである。
【0018】
本発明の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を調製するにあたっては、まずPBT、PET、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂及びガラス繊維以外のその他の材料(無機フィラー等)を配合した後、タンブラーやブレンダー等で混合し、次に二軸押出混練機等で加熱しながら混練し、樹脂が溶融した後にガラス繊維を所定の比率で投入して配合し、さらに各材料が均一に混合されるまで混練した後に水冷等で冷却固化し、これを切断してペレット粒状に形成するようにして行うことができる。
【0019】
本発明の樹脂成形品は上記の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を射出成形等で成形するものである。本発明の樹脂成形品の成形条件は、従来から行われているPBTやPETとガラス繊維からなる熱可塑性樹脂成形材料の成形条件と同様にすることができる。
【0020】
【実施例】
以下本発明を実施例によって具体的に説明する。
【0021】
(実施例1〜7及び比較例1〜5)
表1に示す配合割合(単位は質量部)の熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を調製した。熱可塑性樹脂成形材料の調製は次のようにして行った。まず、ガラス繊維以外の材料を所定量で配合し、ブレンダーで30分間混合し均一化した。次に、この混合物を260℃に加熱した二軸押出混練機で混練して溶融させた後、この溶融物にガラス繊維を所定量で配合し、均一になるまでさらに混練溶融した。この後、50℃の水中で混練物を冷却して固化させた後、固化物をペレタイザーで2〜4mmに切断してペレット粒状にした。このようにして熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を調製した。

そして、上記のようにして得た熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を用いてテストピース用の樹脂成形品を成形した。この樹脂成形品を成形するにあたっては、まず、恒温槽を用いて熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を150℃で3時間の条件で前乾燥することによって、熱可塑性樹脂成形材料中の含有水分率を0.02%以下にし、この後、熱可塑性樹脂成形材料を100t射出成形機で射出成形した。射出成形の条件は金型温度80℃、シリンダー温度(ヘッド付近)260℃、シリンダー温度(材料投入口付近)200℃とした。
【0023】
上記のようにして得られた樹脂成形品を以下の試験で評価した。
(1)引張り強さ
PCT処理(121℃、2kg/cm2(0.2MPa)の加熱加圧状態を100時間維持して処理する)する前の樹脂成形品とPCT処理した後の樹脂成形品について、ASTM D638に準じて行った。
(2)引張り伸び率
ASTM D638に準じて行った。

【表1】
【0026】
表1から明らかなように、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂を配合していない比較例1、3では実施例1〜7に比べてPCT処理後の引張り強さが低くなるものであり、実施例1〜7が高温高湿下での強度が高いことが判る。また、オルソクレゾールノボラック型エポキシ樹脂の配合量が多すぎる比較例2では調製時に発泡して熱可塑性樹脂成形材料にすることができなかった。さらに、PETの配合量が少なすぎる比較例4では樹脂成形品の表面光沢が少なくて実施例1〜7よりも外観が悪いものであり、PETの配合量が多すぎる比較例5では樹脂成形品の引張り伸び率が実施例1〜7よりも小さくて割れやすいものであった。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a thermoplastic resin molding material mainly composed of a thermoplastic resin and a resin molded product obtained by molding this thermoplastic resin molding material, in particular, a resin molded product used at high temperature and high humidity, for example, The present invention relates to a thermoplastic resin molding material suitably used for molding automobile parts.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resin molded products have high strength and excellent heat resistance. Furthermore, they do not generate dioxins even when incinerated, and have low environmental pollution. Yes, it is used as an automobile part. In recent years, replacement of metal parts with resin-molded products has been promoted due to the need for weight reduction of automobiles, and it is placed in an engine room where the temperature and humidity are high. PBT and PET resin molded products have been used as automobile parts.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, when PBT and PET resin molded products are exposed to high temperature and high humidity for a long time, the hydrolysis reaction of PBT and PET proceeds to cause a decrease in molecular weight, which may cause a decrease in strength and breakage such as cracks. Occurred. In particular, high-temperature and high-humidity is required for automobile parts used in the engine room of automobiles (for example, various sensors, throttle bodies, gear cases, housings for anti-lock brake system control devices, but not limited to these). In addition to the above, vibration due to running is also applied, and the above-described reduction in strength has been a big problem. Therefore, in order to prevent the hydrolysis reaction of PBT or PET, PBT or PET having a small amount of terminal carboxylic acid that hardly causes hydrolysis reaction is used, or a flame retardant such as bromo epoxy resin is added to PBT or PET. However, it was not effective enough to prevent hydrolysis reaction.
[0004]
In addition to the above, the PBT resin molded product has a problem that the surface gloss is less than that of the PET resin molded product and the appearance is inferior. In addition, the PET resin molded product is more than the PBT resin molded product. However, there was a problem that elongation at the time of pulling was small (flexibility was low), and it was easy to break.
[0005]
The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and is a heat capable of forming a resin molded product that has a small decrease in strength due to hydrolysis, a large surface gloss, an excellent appearance, and a large elongation during pulling. The object is to provide a plastic resin molding material. It is another object of the present invention to provide a resin molded product that does not cause a decrease in strength due to hydrolysis, has a large surface gloss, has an excellent appearance, and has a large elongation when pulled.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.
[0012]
The thermoplastic resin molding material of the present invention contains PBT and PET as thermoplastic resin components, and contains an ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin for the purpose of preventing hydrolysis of PBT and PET, and glass as a reinforcing material. It contains fibers. The resin molded product of the present invention is formed by molding the above thermoplastic resin molding material. The resin molded product has an excellent appearance by increasing the surface gloss, and when pulled. In order to increase elongation and make it difficult to break, PBT and PET are blended at a mass ratio of 90:10 to 70:30. That is, 70-90 mass% PBT is mix | blended in a thermoplastic resin component, and 10-30 mass% PET is mix | blended in a thermoplastic resin component. When the blending amount of PET is less than 10% by mass in the thermoplastic resin component, the blending amount of PBT is relatively large and the PBT characteristics appear strongly in the resin molded product, so the surface gloss of the resin molded product is small. As a result, the appearance is inferior. Also, if the blending amount of PET is more than 30% by mass in the thermoplastic resin component, the blending amount of PBT is relatively small and the properties of PET appear strongly in the resin molded product, so the elongation at the time of pulling is small. As a result, the flexibility is lowered, and the resin molded product is cracked.
[0013]
In the present invention, an ortho-cresol novolak type epoxy resin is blended for the purpose of preventing hydrolysis of PBT and PET, and thereby the hydrolysis resistance of PBT and PET is improved. Therefore, even if the resin molded product of the present invention is exposed to a high temperature and high humidity for a long time, the hydrolysis reaction of PBT or PET is difficult to proceed, and the strength reduction due to the hydrolysis of PBT or PET is reduced, and this strength is reduced. In particular, it can be suitably used as an automobile part in an engine room of an automobile in which vibration due to traveling is applied in addition to high temperature and high humidity. The ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin has a higher effect of preventing the hydrolysis of PBT and PET than other epoxy resins. In addition, ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin has a three-dimensional molecular structure that causes positional hindrance and does not easily react with PBT molecules, and the reaction proceeds slowly. Therefore, gelation or the like hardly occurs during compounding, and molding defects do not occur. However, the position of other epoxy resins does not easily occur, and the reaction proceeds smoothly, so the reaction proceeds too quickly, and the fluidity of the resin is lost. Even if a small amount is added, gelation may occur and molding defects may occur. .
[0014]
The PBT used in the present invention preferably has a terminal carboxylic acid amount of 35 eq / t or less. The amount of terminal carboxylic acid of PBT is the amount of carboxyl group (—COOH) at the end of the PBT molecule, and is represented by the number of moles of carboxyl group contained in 1 t of PBT (sample). The amount of terminal carboxylic acid can usually be measured by an acid-alkali titration method. The carboxyl group at the terminal of PBT causes hydrolysis of PBT, and the smaller the carboxyl group, the less likely hydrolysis of PBT occurs. Therefore, in the present invention, by using PBT having a terminal carboxylic acid amount of PBT of 35 eq / t or less, the hydrolysis of PBT is further reduced, and the decrease in strength of the resin molded product due to the hydrolysis of PBT is further reduced. . Therefore, if the amount of terminal carboxylic acid of PBT is larger than 35 eq / t, the hydrolysis of PBT increases, and there is a possibility that the strength of the resin molded product is greatly reduced due to the hydrolysis of PBT. The terminal carboxylic acid amount of PET is preferably 35 eq / t or less for the same reason as in PBT. Moreover, since the terminal carboxylic acid amount of PBT and PET is so preferable that it is small, the minimum is 0.
[0015]
In addition, the ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin preferably has an epoxy equivalent of 150 to 250. The epoxy equivalent is a value obtained by dividing the molecular weight of the epoxy resin by the number of epoxy groups present in the molecule of the epoxy resin, and means the weight (g number) of the epoxy resin per 1 g equivalent of the epoxy group. If the epoxy equivalent of the ortho-cresol novolak type epoxy resin is less than 150, the reaction between the PBT or PET and the ortho-cresol novolak type epoxy resin proceeds too much when the thermoplastic resin component and the ortho-cresol novolak type epoxy resin are compounded. There is a possibility that the fluidity is lost due to foaming or the like, and it cannot be used as a molding material. Further, when the epoxy equivalent of the ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin is larger than 250, it is difficult to prevent hydrolysis of PBT and PET, and there is a possibility that the strength of the resin molded product is greatly reduced due to hydrolysis of PBT and PET. .
[0016]
As the glass fiber used in the present invention, a known fiber that has been conventionally blended as a reinforcing material in a resin molding material can be used. For example, a fiber having a fiber length of 1.0 to 4.0 mm and a diameter of 10 to 14 μm is used. can do. In addition to glass fibers, an inorganic filler can be blended in the thermoplastic resin molding material of the present invention for the purpose of reinforcing a resin molded product. Although the kind of inorganic filler will not be specifically limited if it is conventionally mix | blended with the resin molding material, For example, a talc and mica can be illustrated.
[0017]
In the thermoplastic resin molding material of the present invention, the thermoplastic resin component is preferably 50 to 90% by mass with respect to the total amount of the thermoplastic resin molding material, and the glass fiber is a thermoplastic resin molding material. It is preferable to make it 5-35 mass% with respect to the whole quantity. When the blending amount of the thermoplastic resin component and the glass fiber deviates from the above range, the resin molded product of the present invention may cause a decrease in strength, flexibility, flexibility and the like. Further, the ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin is blended in an amount of 0.5 to 7% by mass based on the total amount of the thermoplastic resin molding material of the present invention. When the blending amount of the ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin is less than 0.5% by mass with respect to the total amount of the thermoplastic resin molding material, the ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin with respect to PBT or PET blended in the above blending amount is small. Thus, the hydrolysis of PBT or PET cannot be sufficiently prevented, and the strength reduction of the resin molded product due to the hydrolysis reaction of PBT or PET becomes large. Further, when the amount of the ortho-cresol novolac type epoxy resin is more than 7% by mass with respect to the total amount of the thermoplastic resin molding material, the amount of the thermoplastic resin component and the glass fiber is relatively reduced and the resin becomes relatively small. The strength of the molded product is reduced.
[0018]
In preparing the thermoplastic resin molding material of the present invention, first, PBT, PET, orthocresol novolac type epoxy resin and other materials (inorganic filler, etc.) other than glass fiber are blended, and then mixed with a tumbler or blender. Next, the mixture is kneaded while being heated with a twin screw kneader or the like, and after the resin is melted, glass fibers are added at a predetermined ratio and mixed, and further kneaded until each material is uniformly mixed, and then water-cooled or the like. It can be carried out by cooling and solidifying and cutting it into pellets.
[0019]
The resin molded product of the present invention is obtained by molding the above thermoplastic resin molding material by injection molding or the like. The molding conditions of the resin molded product of the present invention can be the same as the molding conditions of a thermoplastic resin molding material made of PBT or PET and glass fiber, which has been conventionally performed.
