Description

Technical Field

[0002] Polycarbonate (PC) is a non-crystalline thermoplastic polymer material with excellent comprehensive performance. It is widely used in the technical fields of automotive parts, home appliances, communication equipment, medical equipment, lighting equipment, etc. due to its outstanding dimensional stability, mechanical strength and other characteristics. In traditional research, the high viscosity, poor fluidity, poor molding performance and other problems of PC materials are often improved by adding an appropriate amount of polystyrene graft copolymers such as ABS and ASA to PC materials, and the performance complementarity between PC and materials such as ABS / ASA is used to obtain PC alloy materials with excellent comprehensive performance. However, due to the molecular structure characteristics of materials such as ABS and ASA, there are some problems such as compatibility between them and PC materials. At the same time, although the relevant properties of the alloy materials are improved after the above components are blended, it will also cause performance degradation in other aspects, or there are other properties that need to be further improved, such as weather resistance in harsh environments, surface gloss of alloy materials, aging performance, etc. In the traditional improvement scheme, corresponding light stabilizers, anti-UV agents and other additives are added to improve the weather resistance of PC alloys. However, the applicant found in the study of blending and modification of medium and low viscosity PC materials that not all additives such as light stabilizers and UV inhibitors can significantly improve all PC alloy materials. When the main components in the PC alloy change significantly, the use of the same auxiliary components may not significantly improve the comprehensive properties of the PC alloy.

[0080] The applicant conducted a series of performance tests on the PC alloy material in the above embodiment, and the test methods and test results are as follows:

[0081] Tensile properties: tested according to ISO 527 standard, tensile speed is 50mm / min;

[0082] Bending strength: tested according to ISO 178 standard, bending speed is 2mm / min;

[0083] Notched impact strength: tested according to ISO 180 / 1A standard, sample thickness is 4.0mm;

[0085] Flame retardant grade: Flame retardant performance test of 1.5mm and 3.0mm thickness samples was carried out according to UL94-2019 test standard and IEC 60950-1 standard;

[0086] The specific test results are shown in Table 1 and Table 2.

[0087] Table 1 Mechanical properties

[0088]

[0089] It can be seen from the above experimental results that the combination of two ASAs with different melt indexes and toughening agents with different structures can effectively improve the comprehensive strengths of medium and low viscosity PC alloy materials, such as tensile strength, flexural strength and impact strength. Although the above-mentioned specific formula components can significantly improve the tensile strength, flexural strength and other properties of the alloy when applied to the high viscosity (low melt index) PC formula system, its impact strength and other properties are greatly affected. In addition, the application of the above-mentioned specific formula components to the PC system with high viscosity and low viscosity can effectively improve the impact strength of the alloy to a certain extent, but significantly reduce its tensile strength and flexural strength, and also greatly affect the anti-aging properties of the alloy material.

[0090] Table 2

[0091]

[0092] According to the above experimental results, it can be seen that by optimizing and adjusting the toughening agent, styrene graft copolymer and other components and ratios, the anti-aging performance, flame retardancy and other properties can be effectively improved without significantly affecting the mechanical strength of the alloy. Moreover, compared with ABS modification, the anti-aging performance and impact strength of PC alloy modified by using a specific ASA component are more excellent.

The thermal deformation temperatures of all materials are basically 85°C and above, and can be widely used in harsh high-temperature outdoor environments. In addition, the applicant observed the production and processing process of the above samples, and the processing performance of the materials was good, which met the normal production and product processing requirements. In addition, when preparing the test samples, the surface gloss of the samples was observed to be good, which significantly improved the appearance of the products.
