Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of polyester film technology, and in particular to a thick polyester film and a method for preparing the same. Background Technology

[0002] Polyester film, due to its excellent mechanical properties, good dimensional stability, high transparency, and chemical resistance, is widely used in various industries, especially as protective films, reflective films, and diffusion films in medium and large flat panel displays where high optical performance is required. These types of films require polyester films to have high transparency, low haze, good smoothness, and a certain thickness, typically between 38-300 μm, while thick polyester films are usually between 120-3000 μm thick.

[0003] However, during the production of thick polyester films of about 300μm, the heat cannot be dissipated in time due to the excessive thickness of the cast sheet, resulting in a high crystallinity of the sheet formed by the melt. Consequently, the polyester film obtained after biaxial stretching has excessive haze and insufficient gloss. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to improve the light transmittance and reduce the haze value of thick polyester films, this application provides a thick polyester film and a method for preparing the same.

[0005] This application provides a thick polyester film, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A thick polyester film and its preparation method are disclosed. The raw materials mainly include the following components: 120-142 parts of dicarboxylic acid composition, 160-188 parts of diol composition, 2-6 parts of polydecyl diamine, 5-8 parts of poly(trimethylhexamethylene terephthalamide), 1-3 parts of antioxidant, 1.2-2 parts of modifying additive, 1-2 parts of catalyst, and 0.5-1.1 parts of stabilizer; wherein the modifying additive is modified nano-silica.

[0007] By employing the above technical solution, a polyester film is prepared by copolymerizing a dicarboxylic acid composition and a diol composition. This reduces the regularity of the molecular chain. Simultaneously, the addition of polydecanoyldiamine and poly(trimethylhexamethylene terephthalamide) to the polyester molecule segments further reduces the regularity of the polyester molecular chain structure while increasing the spacing between the polyester molecules, thereby improving the transparency and brightness of the polyester film. Polydecanoyldiamine has high ductility, high tensile strength, and excellent impact and low-temperature performance, effectively improving the mechanical properties of the polyester film. Poly(trimethylhexamethylene terephthalamide) has high visible light transmittance, effectively suppressing the crystallinity of the polyester film, effectively increasing its light transmittance, and reducing its haze value.

[0008] Preferably, the dicarboxylic acid composition mainly comprises isophthalic acid, phthalic acid, and cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, with a weight ratio of 1:(1-1.5):(0.6-1.2).

[0009] Preferably, the diol composition mainly comprises ethylene glycol, neopentyl glycol, and cyclohexanediol, with a weight ratio of 1:(0.5-0.9):(0.6-1.2).

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, using a mixture of isophthalic acid, phthalic acid, and cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid as a dicarboxylic acid composition, and a mixture of ethylene glycol, neopentyl glycol, and cyclohexanediol as a diol composition, and using it for copolymerization to prepare polyester film, the regularity of polyester molecular chains can be effectively reduced, thereby improving the transparency and brightness of the polyester film.

[0011] Preferably, the antioxidant comprises 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol and phosphite in a weight ratio of 1:(2-4).

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, using 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol and phosphite composite as antioxidants, the oxidation of various components in polyester film can be effectively inhibited, thereby effectively improving the mechanical properties, light transmittance and other properties of polyester film.

[0013] Preferably, the raw materials for the modified nano-silica mainly include: 2-3 parts nano-silica, 24-30 parts anhydrous ethanol, 10-15 parts silane coupling agent, and 20-30 parts deionized water.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, silica is modified with silane coupling agent. Some hydroxyl groups on the surface of silica are replaced by alkoxy groups of silane coupling agent, which weakens the hydrogen bonding between silica particles. The two particles are connected by Si-O-Si bonds, which effectively inhibits the agglomeration of silica, thereby better exerting the mechanical and optical properties of nano silica and improving the light transmittance and mechanical properties of polyester release film.

[0015] This application provides a method for preparing a thick polyester film, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0016] A method for preparing a thick polyester film, characterized by comprising the following steps:

[0017] S1. Premixing and drying: 120-142 parts of dicarboxylic acid composition, 160-188 parts of diol composition, 2-6 parts of polydecyl diamine, 5-8 parts of poly(trimethylhexamethylene terephthalamide), 1-3 parts of antioxidant, 1.2-2 parts of modifying additive, 1-2 parts of catalyst, and 0.5-1.1 parts of stabilizer are premixed and dried;

[0018] S2. Melt extrusion: The dried raw material is fed into an extruder to melt and extrude, resulting in a polyester film.

[0019] S3. Flat stretching: Place the pressure rollers in parallel and stretch the polyester film longitudinally and laterally in sequence to stretch the thickness of the polyester film to 300-350μm.

[0020] S4. Corona treatment: The excess parts on the front and back sides of the stretched polyester film are cut off, and the surface of the polyester film is subjected to high voltage corona treatment.

[0021] S5. Winding and Slitting: The corona-treated polyester film material is wound into shape, and the cutting device then cuts the winding drum of the polyester film evenly and at equal intervals and collects it.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution and using the flat stretching process to prepare polyester film, the uniformity of stretching of thick polyester film can be effectively improved by placing the pressure rollers in parallel and increasing the holding force, thereby improving the mechanical properties and significantly increasing tensile strength and elongation at break.

[0023] Preferably, the longitudinal stretching includes the following steps:

[0024] The polyester film is preheated at 70-90℃, then heated in an infrared heating zone at 130-160℃, and longitudinally stretched at a linear velocity of 0.8-1.5m / s, followed by longitudinal relaxation at a linear velocity of 0.2-0.3m / s.

[0025] Preferably, the longitudinally stretched polyester film is preheated at 90-120°C, then heated in an infrared heating zone at 130-160°C, longitudinally stretched at a linear velocity of 1.0-1.8 m / s, then laterally relaxed at a linear velocity of 0.2-0.3 m / s, and then shaped.

[0026] Preferably, the method for preparing the modified nano-silica includes the following steps:

[0027] S1. Add 2-3 parts of nano-silica to 24-30 parts of anhydrous ethanol and mix, stirring until evenly dispersed to obtain a dispersion of nano-silica; add 10-15 parts of silane coupling agent to 20-30 parts of deionized water and stir for 1-2 hours to obtain an aqueous solution of silane coupling agent.

[0028] S2. Add the dispersion of nano-silica to the aqueous solution of silane coupling agent and stir evenly, and reflux at 60-80℃ for 2-4 hours; after the reaction is completed, wash, filter, dry and grind the product to obtain modified nano-silica powder.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, silica is modified with silane coupling agent. Some hydroxyl groups on the surface of silica are replaced by alkoxy groups of silane coupling agent, which weakens the hydrogen bonding between silica particles. The two particles are connected by Si-O-Si bonds, which effectively inhibits the agglomeration of silica, thereby better exerting the mechanical and optical properties of nano silica and improving the light transmittance and mechanical properties of polyester release film.

[0030] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0031] 1. By adopting the above technical solution, a polyester film is prepared by copolymerizing a dicarboxylic acid composition and a diol composition, which reduces the regularity of the molecular chain. At the same time, the addition of polydecanoyldiamine and polyterephthalamide to the polyester molecule segments further reduces the regularity of the polyester molecular chain structure and increases the spacing between the polyester molecules, thereby improving the transparency and brightness of the polyester film.

[0032] 2. Polydecyl dimethyl terephthalamide has high ductility, high tensile strength, and excellent impact and low-temperature properties, which can effectively improve the mechanical properties of polyester film; poly(trimethylhexamethylene terephthalamide) has high transmittance of visible light, which can effectively inhibit the crystallization rate of polyester film, effectively improve the transmittance of polyester film, and reduce the haze value of polyester film.

[0033] 3. By adopting the above technical solution, silica is modified with silane coupling agent. Some hydroxyl groups on the surface of silica are replaced by alkoxy groups of silane coupling agent, which weakens the hydrogen bonding between silica particles. The two particles are connected by Si-O-Si bonds, which effectively inhibits the agglomeration of silica, thereby better exerting the mechanical and optical properties of nano silica and improving the light transmittance and mechanical properties of polyester release film.

[0116] 2. The mechanical properties of the thick polyester films obtained in Examples 1-15 and Comparative Examples 1-11 were tested using GB / T 1040.3-2006 "Determination of tensile properties of plastics - Part 3: Test conditions for films and sheets".

[0117] The specific test results are as follows:

[0118] Table 1 Performance Test Results

[0119]

[0120]

[0121] As can be seen from the test results in Table 1, the thick polyester film and the polyester film prepared by the method provided in this application have high light transmittance and low haze, and the tensile strength of the film can reach MPa and the elongation at break can reach %, indicating that the thick polyester film provided in this application has high mechanical properties.

[0122] As can be seen from the test results of Examples 1-3, the process parameters for preparing thick polyester films provided in this application are all beneficial to improving the mechanical strength and light transmittance of thick polyester films and reducing the haze of polyester films.

[0123] As can be seen from the test results of Examples 1, 4, 5 and Comparative Examples 1, 2, when the mass of polydecyl diamine provided in this application for preparing thick polyester films increases, the light transmittance and haze value of the obtained thick polyester films change little, and the tensile strength and elongation at break of the films gradually increase. However, when the mass of polydecyl diamine exceeds 6g, the tensile strength and elongation at break basically no longer change, but the light transmittance of the polyester film decreases and the haze value increases.

[0124] As can be seen from the test results of Examples 1, 6, 7 and Comparative Examples 3, 4, when the mass of poly(trimethylhexamethylene terephthalamide) provided in this application for preparing thick polyester films increases, the light transmittance of the obtained thick polyester films gradually increases, the haze value decreases, and the tensile strength and elongation at break both increase; however, when the mass of trimethylhexamethylene terephthalamide exceeds 8g, the tensile strength and elongation at break of the polyester film basically no longer change, but the light transmittance of the polyester film decreases and the haze value increases.

[0125] The test results from Examples 1, 8, 9 and Comparative Examples 5, 6 show that when the weight ratio of isophthalic acid, phthalic acid and cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid in the dicarboxylic acid composition for preparing thick polyester films provided in this application varies within the range of 1:(1-1.5):(0.6-1.2), the mechanical properties and light transmittance of the polyester film can be improved, and the haze value of the polyester film can be reduced. However, when the ratio is lower or higher than this range, the mechanical properties of the film decrease, the light transmittance decreases, and the haze value increases.

[0126] The test results from Examples 1, 10, 11 and Comparative Examples 7, 8 show that when the weight ratio of the diol composition (ethylene glycol, neopentyl glycol, cyclohexanediol) provided in this application for preparing thick polyester films varies within the range of 1:(0.5-0.9):(0.6-1.2), the mechanical properties and light transmittance of the polyester film can be improved, and the haze value of the polyester film can be reduced. However, when the ratio is lower or higher than this range, the mechanical properties of the film decrease, the light transmittance decreases, and the haze value increases.

[0127] The test results of Examples 1, 12, 13 and Comparative Examples 9, 10 show that when the weight ratio of the antioxidant 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol and phosphite in the preparation of thick polyester films provided in this application varies within the range of 1:(2-4), the mechanical properties and light transmittance of the polyester film can be improved, and the haze value of the polyester film can be reduced. However, when the ratio is lower or higher than this range, the mechanical properties of the film decrease, the light transmittance decreases, and the haze value increases.

[0128] As can be seen from the test results of Examples 1, 14, 15 and Comparative Example 11, the preparation process of the modified additive for preparing thick polyester films provided in this application is beneficial to improving the mechanical strength and light transmittance of thick polyester films and reducing the haze of polyester films. Moreover, the changes in parameters within the range have little effect on the light transmittance, haze and mechanical strength of polyester films. However, when modified nano-silica is used as an additive, the mechanical properties of the obtained polyester film decrease, the light transmittance decreases and the haze value increases.

[0129] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of this application and is not intended to limit it. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they fall within the scope of the claims of this application.
