Description

本発明は、ガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂組成物を射出成形する際の計量時間を安定させる技術に関する。   The present invention relates to a technique for stabilizing a measuring time when injection molding a liquid crystalline resin composition containing glass fibers.

液晶性ポリエステル樹脂に代表される液晶性樹脂は、優れた機械的強度、耐熱性、耐薬品性、電気的性質等をバランス良く有するため高機能エンジニアリングプラスチックとして広く利用されている。特に液晶性樹脂の大部分は射出成形に使用されている。   Liquid crystalline resins typified by liquid crystalline polyester resins are widely used as highly functional engineering plastics because they have excellent mechanical strength, heat resistance, chemical resistance, electrical properties and the like in a well-balanced manner. In particular, most of the liquid crystalline resin is used for injection molding.

液晶性樹脂にガラス繊維や炭素繊維に代表される繊維状補強材や、シリカ、マイカ、クレー、ガラスビーズ等の無機粉粒体等を充填した液晶性樹脂は、流動性と機械的強度とのバランスが良好であるため、薄肉部又は複雑な形状を有する電気・電子部品に好適な材料となる。例えば、リレー部品、コイルボビン、コネクター、ボリューム部品、コンミテーターやセパレーター等のモーター部品、又はコイル、水晶振動子、ICチップ等の素子等の封止材等に使用されている。   Liquid crystalline resin filled with fibrous reinforcing material typified by glass fiber or carbon fiber or inorganic powder such as silica, mica, clay, glass beads, etc. in liquid crystalline resin has fluidity and mechanical strength. Since the balance is good, it is a material suitable for an electric / electronic component having a thin portion or a complicated shape. For example, it is used for sealing parts such as relay parts, coil bobbins, connectors, volume parts, motor parts such as commutators and separators, or elements such as coils, crystal resonators and IC chips.

上記のようなガラス繊維等の無機充填剤を含む薄肉部の機械特性に優れ、寸法安定性、耐熱性に優れた液晶性樹脂組成物として、二種類以上のガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂組成物が開示されている(特許文献1)。   A liquid crystalline resin composition comprising two or more types of glass fibers as a liquid crystalline resin composition having excellent mechanical properties of a thin-walled portion containing an inorganic filler such as glass fiber as described above and excellent in dimensional stability and heat resistance. Is disclosed (Patent Document 1).

また、無機充填剤の一つであるガラスビーズもガラス繊維と同様の目的で液晶性樹脂組成物に配合されることが知られている。ガラス繊維等の無機フィラーを配合した液晶ポリマーとしてこれまで知られているものは、液晶ポリマーの耐熱性や機械的強度や異方性はある程度改良されているものの、成形時の流動性や寸法精度、成形品の外観が必ずしも十分でなかった。そこで、液晶性樹脂100質量部と、ガラスビーズ5質量部から200質量部とからなる液晶性樹脂組成物が開示されている(特許文献2)。   It is also known that glass beads, which are one of inorganic fillers, are blended in a liquid crystalline resin composition for the same purpose as glass fibers. What is known as a liquid crystal polymer blended with inorganic fillers such as glass fiber has improved the heat resistance, mechanical strength, and anisotropy of the liquid crystal polymer to some extent, but fluidity and dimensional accuracy during molding. The appearance of the molded product was not always sufficient. Then, the liquid crystalline resin composition which consists of 100 mass parts of liquid crystalline resin and 5 mass parts of glass beads to 200 mass parts is disclosed (patent document 2).

ところで、上記特許文献に記載されているような液晶性樹脂組成物からなる成形品の大部分は射出成形により成形されている。射出成形法は、複雑な形状の樹脂成形品であっても容易に成形することができるからである。   By the way, most of the molded products made of the liquid crystalline resin composition as described in the above patent document are molded by injection molding. This is because the injection molding method can easily mold even a resin molded product having a complicated shape.

液晶性樹脂は粘度が低いという特徴を有するが、粘度の低さから溶融した液晶性樹脂組成物が、スクリュー先端に設けられた逆流防止弁をすり抜けて逆流してしまい計量時間が安定しないことが問題となっている。   The liquid crystalline resin has a characteristic that the viscosity is low, but the liquid crystalline resin composition melted due to the low viscosity flows back through the backflow prevention valve provided at the tip of the screw, and the measurement time may not be stable. It is a problem.

また、通常の射出成形ではホッパーから投入された樹脂材料はスクリューの回転により溶かされながらスクリューの前部へ送られるが、液晶性樹脂を含む樹脂材料は融点の高いものが多く、スムーズに樹脂材料が溶けず、樹脂材料同士が溶着してしまい、計量時間が長くなる問題が生じている。   Also, in normal injection molding, the resin material introduced from the hopper is sent to the front of the screw while being melted by the rotation of the screw, but many resin materials containing liquid crystalline resin have a high melting point, and the resin material smoothly Are not melted, and the resin materials are welded together, resulting in a problem that the measurement time becomes long.

さらに、融点が高く、粘度の低い液晶性樹脂材料では、スクリューの回転によりスムーズにスクリュー前部に溶融樹脂材料を送ることができず、溶融樹脂材料が空気を抱き込んだ状態でスクリュー前部に送られてしまうという問題が生じている。空気を抱き込んだまま溶融樹脂材料がスクリュー前部に送られると、その抱き込んだ空気の分だけ充填密度が小さくなり成形品の品質がばらつく等の不具合が生じるからである。   Furthermore, in a liquid crystalline resin material having a high melting point and a low viscosity, the molten resin material cannot be smoothly fed to the front part of the screw due to the rotation of the screw, and the molten resin material embeds air in the front part of the screw. There is a problem of being sent. This is because if the molten resin material is fed to the front part of the screw while embracing the air, the filling density is reduced by the amount of the embraced air and the quality of the molded product varies.

また、保圧を有効に効かすために射出時にスクリュー先端部の溶融樹脂を少量残す。この先端に残る樹脂量をクッション量というが、このクッション量がショット毎にバラつくと高品質な成形品を安定的に成形することができない。また、この先端に残る樹脂は、次の成形に使われるため、クッション量が多くなると、次の成形で射出される多くの樹脂が高温状態で長時間置かれることになり成形品の物性の低下につながる。   Also, a small amount of molten resin is left at the tip of the screw at the time of injection in order to effectively maintain the holding pressure. The amount of resin remaining at the tip is referred to as a cushion amount, but if the amount of cushion varies from shot to shot, a high-quality molded product cannot be stably molded. In addition, since the resin remaining at the tip is used for the next molding, if the amount of cushion increases, a lot of resin injected in the next molding will be placed at a high temperature for a long time, resulting in a decrease in physical properties of the molded product. Leads to.

上記の通り、計量時間を短く安定させ、クッション量を少なく安定させることが求められるが、上記の点を改良しようとすると、他の物性の低下を招いてしまい、良好な物性を維持したまま、計量時間を短く安定させ、クッション量を少なく安定させることができない。   As described above, it is required to stabilize the weighing time for a short time and to stabilize the cushion amount to a small amount.However, when trying to improve the above points, other physical properties are deteriorated, and while maintaining good physical properties, The weighing time cannot be stabilized shortly and the cushion amount cannot be stabilized.

本発明は以上のような課題を解決するためになされたものであり、その目的は、ガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂組成物の良好な物性を維持したまま、計量時間を短く安定させ、クッション量を少なく安定させる技術を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to shorten the measurement time while maintaining good physical properties of the liquid crystalline resin composition containing glass fibers, and to provide a cushion amount. It is to provide a technology that stabilizes the amount of the material.

本発明者らは上記の課題を解決するために鋭意研究を重ねた。その結果、液晶性樹脂とガラス繊維との混合物に対して、さらにガラスビーズを4質量%から7質量%配合することで、上記課題を解決できることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。より具体的には本発明は以下のものを提供する。   The present inventors have intensively studied to solve the above problems. As a result, it has been found that the above problem can be solved by further blending 4% by mass to 7% by mass of glass beads with respect to the mixture of liquid crystalline resin and glass fiber, and the present invention has been completed. More specifically, the present invention provides the following.

本発明は、計量時間を短く安定させ、クッション量を短く安定させることが特徴である。融点の高い液晶性樹脂を用いた場合には、樹脂ペレット等の樹脂材料を、スクリュー前部へスムーズに送ることができない傾向にある。これは、融点の高い液晶性樹脂を含む樹脂ペレットは溶けづらく、ペレット同士が溶着して詰まってしまい計量時間が長くなるからである。上記問題の発生しやすい液晶性樹脂の融点は320℃以上のものである。本発明のように液晶性樹脂組成物に特定量のガラスビーズを配合することで、上記融点以上の液晶性樹脂を含む樹脂材料であっても、スムーズに樹脂材料をスクリュー前部に送ることができ、計量時間を短く安定させることができる。   The present invention is characterized in that the weighing time is shortened and stabilized, and the cushion amount is shortened and stabilized. When a liquid crystalline resin having a high melting point is used, resin materials such as resin pellets tend not to be smoothly fed to the screw front. This is because resin pellets containing a liquid crystalline resin having a high melting point are not easily melted, and the pellets are welded together to be clogged, resulting in a long measurement time. The melting point of the liquid crystalline resin in which the above problem is likely to occur is 320 ° C. or higher. By blending a specific amount of glass beads in the liquid crystalline resin composition as in the present invention, even if it is a resin material containing a liquid crystalline resin having a melting point or higher, the resin material can be smoothly fed to the screw front. The weighing time can be shortened and stabilized.

また、粘度の低い液晶性樹脂を用いた場合にはスクリュー前部へ送られた溶融樹脂が逆流防止弁をすり抜けて逆流したり、クッション量が安定しなかったりする傾向にある。このような問題の発生しやすい液晶性樹脂の粘度は、55Pa・sec以下である。本発明のように液晶性樹脂組成物に特定の量のガラスビーズを配合することにより、上記のような粘度を持つ液晶性樹脂であっても、溶融樹脂の逆流やクッション量の不安定を容易に解消することができる。   In addition, when a low-viscosity liquid crystalline resin is used, the molten resin sent to the front part of the screw tends to pass back through the backflow prevention valve, and the cushion amount tends to be unstable. The viscosity of the liquid crystalline resin in which such a problem is likely to occur is 55 Pa · sec or less. By blending a specific amount of glass beads with the liquid crystalline resin composition as in the present invention, even if the liquid crystalline resin has the above viscosity, the back flow of the molten resin and the instability of the cushion amount are easy. Can be resolved.

[ガラス繊維]
本発明の液晶性樹脂組成物に含まれるガラス繊維としては、繊維長、繊維径等は特に限定されず従来公知のものを使用することができる。ガラス繊維の繊維長、繊維径は所望の物性に応じて適宜変更されるものである。
[Glass fiber]
As glass fiber contained in the liquid crystalline resin composition of the present invention, fiber length, fiber diameter and the like are not particularly limited, and conventionally known ones can be used. The fiber length and fiber diameter of the glass fiber are appropriately changed according to the desired physical properties.

繊維径5μmから15μm、繊維長3mmのチョップドストランドのガラス繊維あるいはミドルファイバーを用いると、通常重量平均繊維長が50μmから700μmのガラス繊維になり、そのガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂材料を樹脂ペレット等にして原料に用いると、計量時間が長くなったり、計量時間が不安定になったり、クッション量が不安定になったりしやすい。本発明のように特定量のガラスビーズを液晶性樹脂とガラス繊維との混合物に配合し液晶性樹脂組成物にすることにより、上記のようなガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂材料の問題も容易に解消することができる。   When chopped strand glass fibers or middle fibers having a fiber diameter of 5 to 15 μm and a fiber length of 3 mm are used, the glass fibers usually have a weight-average fiber length of 50 to 700 μm, and the liquid crystalline resin material containing the glass fibers is resin pellets or the like When used as a raw material, the measuring time tends to be long, the measuring time becomes unstable, and the cushion amount tends to become unstable. By blending a specific amount of glass beads into a mixture of liquid crystalline resin and glass fiber as in the present invention to form a liquid crystalline resin composition, the problem of the liquid crystalline resin material containing glass fibers as described above can be easily obtained. Can be resolved.

液晶性樹脂組成物に含まれるガラス繊維の含有量は特に限定されないが、液晶性樹脂組成物中に20質量%から40質量%含有すると、計量時間が長くなったり、計量時間が不安定になったり、クッション量が不安定になったりしやすい。また、ガラス繊維の含有量が20質量%から40質量%の液晶性樹脂組成物を成形してなる成形品は機械的特性等の種々の特性をバランス良く有し様々な用途に使用されているため、計量時間等の改善が求められていたが、ガラスビーズを特定量配合することで、上記の問題を容易に解消することができる。   The content of the glass fiber contained in the liquid crystalline resin composition is not particularly limited. However, if the liquid crystalline resin composition contains 20% by mass to 40% by mass, the measurement time becomes long or the measurement time becomes unstable. Or the amount of cushioning becomes unstable. In addition, a molded product obtained by molding a liquid crystalline resin composition having a glass fiber content of 20% by mass to 40% by mass has various properties such as mechanical properties in a well-balanced manner and is used in various applications. For this reason, improvement in measurement time and the like has been demanded, but the above problem can be easily solved by blending a specific amount of glass beads.

[ガラスビーズ]
本発明の液晶性樹脂組成物は、ガラスビーズを組成物全量100質量%に対して4質量%から7質量%含むことが特徴である。液晶性樹脂組成物中にガラスビーズが上記範囲で含まれることにより、ガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂組成物の良好な物性を維持したまま、計量時間を短く安定させ、クッション量を少なく安定させることができる。ガラスビーズの含有量が4質量%未満になると計量時間、クッション量のバラつきが大きくなるため好ましくない。また、ガラスビーズの含有量が7質量%よりも多くなると溶融粘度増加による成形性の悪化、液晶性樹脂組成物を成形してなる成形体の物性の低下等の問題が発生するため好ましくない。好ましくは380℃でせん断速度1000sec−1における溶融粘度が55Pa・s以下である。
[Glass beads]
The liquid crystalline resin composition of the present invention is characterized in that it contains 4 to 7% by mass of glass beads with respect to 100% by mass of the total composition. By including glass beads in the above-mentioned range in the liquid crystalline resin composition, the measurement time is stabilized short and the cushion amount is stabilized while maintaining the good physical properties of the liquid crystalline resin composition containing glass fibers. Can do. If the content of the glass beads is less than 4% by mass, the measurement time and the cushion amount vary greatly, such being undesirable. On the other hand, if the glass bead content is more than 7% by mass, problems such as deterioration of moldability due to an increase in melt viscosity and deterioration of physical properties of a molded product formed by molding a liquid crystalline resin composition are not preferable. Preferably, the melt viscosity at 380 ° C. and a shear rate of 1000 sec −1 is 55 Pa · s or less.

ガラスビーズの平均粒径は特に限定されないが5μmから30μmであることが好ましい。ガラスビーズの平均粒径は、通常5μm以上であり、ガラスビーズの平均粒径が30μm以下であれば薄肉流動性の観点から好ましい。   The average particle size of the glass beads is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 μm to 30 μm. The average particle diameter of the glass beads is usually 5 μm or more, and the average particle diameter of the glass beads is preferably 30 μm or less from the viewpoint of thin-wall fluidity.

[液晶性樹脂組成物]
本発明の液晶性樹脂組成物は、上述の液晶性樹脂と、ガラス繊維と、ガラスビーズと、を含む。液晶性樹脂とガラス繊維とを含む混合物に対して、さらにガラスビーズを組成物全量100質量%に対して4質量%から7質量%配合した液晶性樹脂組成物にすることで、ガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂組成物の良好な物性を維持したまま、計量時間を短く安定させ、クッション量を少なく安定させることができる。
[Liquid Crystalline Resin Composition]
The liquid crystalline resin composition of the present invention contains the above-described liquid crystalline resin, glass fibers, and glass beads. A glass fiber is contained by making it into the liquid crystalline resin composition which mix | blended 4 mass%-7 mass% with respect to 100 mass% of composition whole glass beads with respect to the mixture containing liquid crystalline resin and glass fiber. While maintaining good physical properties of the liquid crystalline resin composition, the measurement time can be shortened and stabilized, and the cushion amount can be reduced and stabilized.

上記のような効果が得られるのは、ガラスビーズを配合することにより、液晶性樹脂組成物が軟化してから溶融するまでの温度幅が狭くなるためと推測される。以上のような特性を示す「適度な溶融粘度」として好ましい溶融粘度は、380℃でのせん断速度1000sec−1における溶融粘度が35Pa・sec以上、より好ましくは40Pa・sec以上であり、最も好ましくは50Pa・sec以上である。The effect as described above can be obtained because the temperature range from the softening of the liquid crystalline resin composition to the melting of the liquid crystalline resin composition is reduced by blending the glass beads. A preferable melt viscosity as an “appropriate melt viscosity” exhibiting the above properties is a melt viscosity at a shear rate of 1000 sec −1 at 380 ° C. of 35 Pa · sec or more, more preferably 40 Pa · sec or more, and most preferably 50 Pa · sec or more.

従来から得られる成形体の物性の向上を目的として、様々な無機充填剤が配合されている。液晶性樹脂に添加可能な無機充填剤としては例えば、繊維状充填剤として、ガラス繊維、アスベスト繊維、シリカ繊維、シリカ・アルミナ繊維、アルミナ繊維、ジルコニア繊維、窒化硼素繊維、窒化珪素繊維、硼素繊維、チタン酸カリウム繊維、さらにステンレス、アルミニウム、チタン、銅、真鍮等の金属の繊維状物等の無機質繊維状物質が挙げられる。粉粒状充填剤としては、カーボンブラック、黒鉛、シリカ、石英粉末、ガラスビーズ、ミルドガラスファイバー、ガラスバルーン、ガラス粉、珪酸カルシウム、珪酸アルミニウム、カオリン、タルク、クレー、珪藻土、ウォラストナイトの如き珪酸塩、酸化鉄、酸化チタン、酸化亜鉛、三酸化アンチモン、アルミナの如き金属の酸化物、炭酸カルシウム、炭酸マグネシウムの如き金属の炭酸塩、硫酸カルシウム、硫酸バリウムの如き金属の硫酸塩、その他フェライト、炭化珪素、窒化珪素、窒化硼素、各種金属粉末等が挙げられる。また、板状充填剤としては、マイカ、ガラスフレーク、各種の金属箔等が挙げられる。本発明は、ガラス繊維とガラスビーズとの組み合わせにより実現することができる。その他の組み合わせでは、液晶性樹脂組成物が軟化してから溶融するまでの温度幅が充分に狭くならないため本発明と同様の効果を得ることはできないと推測される。   Various inorganic fillers are blended for the purpose of improving the physical properties of conventionally obtained molded articles. Examples of inorganic fillers that can be added to the liquid crystalline resin include glass fibers, asbestos fibers, silica fibers, silica / alumina fibers, alumina fibers, zirconia fibers, boron nitride fibers, silicon nitride fibers, and boron fibers. And inorganic fibrous materials such as potassium titanate fibers, and metal fibrous materials such as stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, copper, and brass. The granular fillers include carbon black, graphite, silica, quartz powder, glass beads, milled glass fiber, glass balloon, glass powder, calcium silicate, aluminum silicate, kaolin, talc, clay, diatomaceous earth, wollastonite, etc. Salts, iron oxide, titanium oxide, zinc oxide, antimony trioxide, oxides of metals such as alumina, carbonates of metals such as calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate, sulfates of metals such as calcium sulfate and barium sulfate, other ferrites, Examples thereof include silicon carbide, silicon nitride, boron nitride, and various metal powders. Examples of the plate-like filler include mica, glass flakes, various metal foils and the like. The present invention can be realized by a combination of glass fibers and glass beads. In other combinations, it is presumed that the same effect as that of the present invention cannot be obtained because the temperature range from the softening to melting of the liquid crystalline resin composition is not sufficiently narrowed.

本発明の特徴の一つは上記の通り、ガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂組成物の良好な物性を維持できることである。「良好な物性を維持」とは、ガラスビーズを配合することにより全く物性が低下しないことが好ましい。低下しやすい物性としては、例えば液晶性樹脂組成物を成形してなる成形体の荷重たわみ温度や曲げ強度に代表される機械的特性等が挙げられる。   One of the features of the present invention is that the good physical properties of the liquid crystalline resin composition containing glass fibers can be maintained as described above. “Maintaining good physical properties” preferably means that the physical properties are not lowered at all by blending glass beads. Examples of the physical properties that are likely to be lowered include mechanical properties typified by the deflection temperature under load and bending strength of a molded article formed by molding a liquid crystalline resin composition.

<射出成形>
本発明の液晶性樹脂組成物を材料にして、射出成形法により成形して成形体を作製する。射出成形は、例えば、計量工程、射出工程、保圧・冷却工程に分けることができる。なお、使用する成形装置は従来公知の一般的な射出成形装置を使用することができる。
<Injection molding>
Using the liquid crystalline resin composition of the present invention as a material, it is molded by an injection molding method to produce a molded body. Injection molding can be divided into, for example, a weighing process, an injection process, and a pressure holding / cooling process. As a molding apparatus to be used, a conventionally known general injection molding apparatus can be used.

[計量工程]
計量工程は、樹脂を可塑化するとともに計量する工程である。上述の液晶性樹脂組成物からなる樹脂ペレットが、スクリューの回転によりホッパー側からノズル方向側に移送される。そして溶融した液晶性樹脂組成物がスクリュー前部に溜められる。
[Weighing process]
The weighing step is a step of plasticizing and weighing the resin. Resin pellets made of the liquid crystalline resin composition described above are transferred from the hopper side to the nozzle direction side by the rotation of the screw. And the melted liquid crystalline resin composition is stored in the screw front part.

従来の液晶性樹脂組成物は、粘度が低いため溶融樹脂が空気を抱き込んだまま移送されることがあり、充填不足やソリが発生する等の不具合が生じていたが、本発明では、液晶性樹脂組成物中にガラスビーズを4質量%から7質量%配合することで、溶融した液晶性樹脂組成物に上述の適度な粘度が付与され空気の抱きこみを防ぐことができる。   The conventional liquid crystalline resin composition has a low viscosity, so that the molten resin may be transported while embracing air, causing problems such as insufficient filling and warping. By blending 4 to 7% by weight of glass beads in the functional resin composition, the above-mentioned appropriate viscosity is imparted to the melted liquid crystalline resin composition and air entrapment can be prevented.

上記のように溶融樹脂が空気を抱き込んだままスクリュー前部に送られた場合には、背圧により空気を抜く。「背圧」とは、先端に送られる溶融樹脂によってスクリューが後退する際スクリューの後退方向とは逆に射出方向に働かせて樹脂を加圧する圧力のことをいう。スクリュー前部には溶融した樹脂が逆流しないように逆流防止弁が設けられているが、溶融した液晶性樹脂組成物は通常、粘度が低いため逆流防止弁をすり抜けてしまうという問題がある。しかし、本発明では上記の通り溶融した液晶性樹脂組成物に対して適度な粘度が付与されているため逆流を防止することができる。本発明の液晶性樹脂組成物を材料として射出成形を行う場合には背圧は、1MPaから5MPaであることが好ましい。   When the molten resin is sent to the front part of the screw while embracing air as described above, the air is removed by back pressure. The “back pressure” refers to a pressure that pressurizes the resin by acting in the injection direction opposite to the reverse direction of the screw when the screw is retracted by the molten resin sent to the tip. The screw front part is provided with a backflow prevention valve so that the molten resin does not backflow, but the melted liquid crystalline resin composition usually has a problem that it slips through the backflow prevention valve because of its low viscosity. However, in the present invention, since an appropriate viscosity is imparted to the melted liquid crystalline resin composition as described above, backflow can be prevented. When injection molding is performed using the liquid crystalline resin composition of the present invention as a material, the back pressure is preferably 1 MPa to 5 MPa.

また、液晶性樹脂組成物を射出成形する場合には、複数の樹脂ペレット同士が移送の途中で溶着しやすい傾向にある。溶着により生じる樹脂ペレットの塊の大きさと比べてスクリューの溝が浅いと成形材料の移送が上手くいかなくなる。移送が上手くいかなくなると計量時間が長くなり、射出成形品の生産性が低下する。また、移送がスムーズに進まないのでショット毎の計量時間の差が大きくなる。計量時間がバラつくことによって得られる射出成形品の品質に影響を与える。本発明では、液晶性樹脂とガラス繊維との混合物に対してガラスビーズを組成物全量100質量%に対して4質量%から7質量%になるように配合し液晶性樹脂組成物とすることで上記の問題を解消し計量時間を安定させることができる。   Moreover, when the liquid crystalline resin composition is injection-molded, a plurality of resin pellets tend to be easily welded during transfer. If the groove of the screw is shallow compared with the size of the lump of the resin pellet generated by welding, the molding material cannot be transferred successfully. If the transfer becomes unsuccessful, the measurement time becomes longer, and the productivity of the injection molded product decreases. Further, since the transfer does not proceed smoothly, the difference in measurement time for each shot becomes large. It affects the quality of the injection-molded product obtained by varying the measurement time. In the present invention, by blending glass beads with a mixture of liquid crystalline resin and glass fiber so as to be 4% by mass to 7% by mass with respect to 100% by mass of the total composition, a liquid crystalline resin composition is obtained. The above problem can be solved and the weighing time can be stabilized.

「計量時間の安定」とは、ショット毎の計量時間が全く同じ場合の他、30ショット内の最大計量時間と最小計量時間とのバラつきが5秒以内のことをいう。軽量時間のバラつきが上記範囲内であれば、生産性の低下を充分に解消でき、さらに得られる成形品の品質にもほとんど影響を与えないからである。   “Stable weighing time” means that the difference between the maximum weighing time and the minimum weighing time within 30 shots is within 5 seconds, in addition to the case where the weighing time is exactly the same for each shot. This is because if the variation in lightweight time is within the above range, the reduction in productivity can be sufficiently eliminated and the quality of the obtained molded product is hardly affected.

[射出工程]
射出工程とは、溶融した樹脂をシリンダーから金型内へ押出す工程である。射出速度や射出圧力は、用いる成形材料によって好ましい射出速度で射出する。
[Injection process]
The injection process is a process of extruding molten resin from a cylinder into a mold. The injection speed and injection pressure are injected at a preferred injection speed depending on the molding material used.

射出後、保圧を有効に効かすためにスクリュー先端部に溶融樹脂を少量残す。この先端に残る樹脂量をクッション量という。クッション量が多くなると、この先端に残る樹脂は、次の成形に使われるので樹脂が高温状態で長時間置かれることになり物性の低下につながる。また、クッション量のバラつきは、成形品の品質に影響を与える。本発明の液晶性樹脂組成物を用いることで、他の物性を良好に保ちつつ、クッション量のばらつきを1.0mm以下に抑えることができる。なお、上記好ましいクッション量のバラつきは、30ショット分測定し最大値と最小値との差を指す。   After injection, a small amount of molten resin is left at the tip of the screw in order to effectively apply the holding pressure. The amount of resin remaining at the tip is called the cushion amount. When the cushion amount increases, the resin remaining at the tip is used for the next molding, so that the resin is left at a high temperature for a long time, leading to deterioration of physical properties. Further, the variation in the cushion amount affects the quality of the molded product. By using the liquid crystalline resin composition of the present invention, the variation in the cushion amount can be suppressed to 1.0 mm or less while keeping other physical properties good. Note that the variation in the preferable cushion amount indicates a difference between the maximum value and the minimum value measured for 30 shots.

[保圧・冷却工程]
保圧工程とは、射出工程後から冷却工程のはじめに、射出成形機から金型内の樹脂への加圧を続け、冷却に伴う収縮分の樹脂を補う工程である。特に本発明の液晶性樹脂組成物を用いると、上記の通り、クッション量が安定しているため保圧を有効に効かすことができる。
[Pressure holding and cooling process]
The pressure-holding step is a step in which pressurization from the injection molding machine to the resin in the mold is continued from the injection step to the beginning of the cooling step to compensate for the shrinkage resin accompanying cooling. In particular, when the liquid crystalline resin composition of the present invention is used, the holding pressure can be effectively applied because the cushion amount is stable as described above.

射出成形では成形品の生産性を高めるために冷却工程で金型内の樹脂を冷却している間に、スクリューを後退させて樹脂の計量を行う。冷却に時間の掛かる樹脂であれば、計量時間が多少長くても生産性に与える影響は少ないが、液晶性樹脂は冷却時間が短いため計量時間を短く安定させる必要がある。本発明の液晶性樹脂組成物を用いることで計量時間を安定させることができる。   In injection molding, the resin is weighed by retracting the screw while cooling the resin in the mold in the cooling process in order to increase the productivity of the molded product. If the resin takes a long time for cooling, even if the measurement time is somewhat long, the effect on the productivity is small. However, since the liquid crystalline resin has a short cooling time, it is necessary to stabilize the measurement time. The measurement time can be stabilized by using the liquid crystalline resin composition of the present invention.

The evaluation results are shown in Table 1.

表1から明らかなように、ガラスビーズの配合量が全組成物中4質量%から7質量%の範囲内にある実施例1、2では、液晶性樹脂組成物の溶融粘度が35Pa・sec以上の範囲であり、荷重たわみ温度の低下がないにもかかわらず、平均計量時間は12秒以内と短く、さらに計量時間のバラつきも4秒以内と少ない。さらにクッション量も3.4mm以内と多くなく、さらにクッション量のバラつきも0.4秒以内と少ない。ガラスビーズを全く配合しない比較例1では、計量時間は長く、バラつきが大きい、さらにクッション量のバラつきも大きい。また、ガラスビーズの配合量が7質量%を超えると、比較例3、4から明らかなように溶融粘度が悪くなり荷重たわみ温度が低下し始め、物性の低下が見られる。   As is apparent from Table 1, in Examples 1 and 2 in which the blending amount of the glass beads is in the range of 4% by mass to 7% by mass in the total composition, the melt viscosity of the liquid crystalline resin composition is 35 Pa · sec or more. The average weighing time is as short as 12 seconds or less, and the variation in weighing time is as little as 4 seconds, even though there is no decrease in the deflection temperature under load. Further, the cushion amount is not so large as 3.4 mm or less, and the variation in the cushion amount is as small as 0.4 seconds or less. In Comparative Example 1 in which no glass beads are blended, the measurement time is long, the variation is large, and the variation of the cushion amount is also large. On the other hand, when the blending amount of the glass beads exceeds 7% by mass, as is clear from Comparative Examples 3 and 4, the melt viscosity deteriorates, the deflection temperature under load begins to decrease, and physical properties are deteriorated.

実施例2、比較例5、6の結果から明らかなように、ガラスビーズの代わりに球状シリカを用いた比較例5、タルクを用いた比較例6は、実施例2と比較して平均軽量時間のバラつき、平均クッション量のバラツキが大きいことが確認された。   As is clear from the results of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 5 and 6, Comparative Example 5 using spherical silica instead of glass beads, and Comparative Example 6 using talc, have an average light weight time compared to Example 2. It was confirmed that there was a large variation in the average cushion amount.

以上の結果から、ガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂組成物に対して、さらにガラスビーズを組成物全量100質量%に対して、4質量%から7質量%になるように配合することで、ガラス繊維を含む液晶性樹脂組成物の良好な物性を維持したまま、計量時間を短く安定させ、クッション量を少なく安定させることができることが確認された。   From the above results, the glass fiber was further blended with respect to the liquid crystalline resin composition containing glass fiber so that the glass beads were 4% to 7% by mass with respect to 100% by mass of the total composition. It was confirmed that the measurement time can be shortened and the cushion amount can be reduced and stabilized while maintaining the good physical properties of the liquid crystalline resin composition.
