Abstract

Provided are pellets of an acrylic block copolymer which are sufficiently prevented from adhering to each other, without impairing the excellent performances of the acrylic block copolymer, such as transparency. The method is for producing pellets (D) comprising an acrylic block copolymer (A) including at least one polymer block (a1) comprising alkyl acrylate units and at least one polymer block (a2) comprising alkyl methacrylate units, the method comprising a step in which raw-material pellets of the acrylic block copolymer (A) are brought into contact with an aqueous dispersion (C) containing acrylic-resin particles (B) but containing no surfactant and a step in which the water adherent to the pellets is removed.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to a process for the manufacture of anti-adhesive acrylic block copolymer pellets. Background technique [0002] Acrylic block copolymers having a polymer segment containing an acrylate unit and a polymer segment containing a methacrylate unit have been studied in various fields such as adhesives, soft materials, and resin modifiers based on their characteristics. use in various purposes. Since the acrylic block copolymer is used in various molding methods such as injection molding and extrusion molding, it is usually produced as granular pellets. However, acrylic block copolymers usually contain soft components and have a problem of being prone to sticking. [0003] In order to prevent sticking, a method of adhering an anti-sticking agent such as ethylenebisstearamide to the surface of pellets is considered. However, when ethylenebisstearamide is used as an anti-adhesive agent, there are problems such as decrease in transpare...
