Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of polymer preparation, and particularly relates to a polymerization method for preparing a grafting latex for preparing high-impact high-weather-resistance ASA resin. BACKGROUND

[0002] The ASA resin is also commonly known as weather-resistant ABS resin. Since the polyacrylate (mainly butyl ester) rubber is used to replace the polybutadiene rubber in the ABS resin, the ASA resin does not contain a large amount of C=C, and the weather resistance of the resin is significantly improved under ultraviolet light.

[0003] It is known that the above two resins both belong to two-phase structure polymers, and the design concept is to toughen the brittle SAN resin by using the dispersed phase rubber. Since the C-C connected with the C=C double bond has a lower internal rotation potential barrier, the ASA resin using the polyacrylate rubber is generally less flexible than the ABS resin using the polybutadiene rubber, and the toughening effect on the SAN resin is also poor. Therefore, how to improve the impact strength of the ASA resin while maintaining the weather resistance is the main product research direction in the industry.

[0004] At present, the impact strength of the ASA resin is mainly improved by the following methods:

[0005] 1) Adding a rubber with better impact performance as the toughening dispersed phase of the SAN matrix. For example, the patent CN101633769A improves the impact performance of the ASA resin by mixing the polydiene latex into the polybutyl acrylate latex, and mixing the powder nitrile rubber, powder styrene-butadiene rubber and powder polybutadiene rubber into the prepared graft copolymer. As described above, this method introduces unsaturated carbon-carbon double bonds, which will cause the weather resistance of the ASA resin to decrease.

[0006] 2) Developing a new two-phase structure according to the toughening mechanism. For example, the patent US4224419A uses a double-distributed particle size dispersed phase, i.e., polyacrylate rubber, to realize the dual improvement of the SAN resin toughness and coloring performance; generally, the dispersed phase with different particle sizes has different effects on the toughening mechanism of the matrix resin, and the large particle size tends to induce a silver line, and the small particle size tends to induce a shear band.

[0007] 3) Improving the core-shell structure of the rubber phase. For example, the patent CN105764943B uses a multi-layer core-shell structure (polybutyl acrylate-poly styrene-SAN) to improve the comprehensive mechanical properties of the ASA resin.

[0008] 4) Adjusting the cross-linking structure of the rubber phase. For example, the patents EP-A 0535456 and DE-A 4006643 propose that when DCPA is used as a cross-linking agent in the preparation of the rubber phase, the prepared resin has improved impact resistance.

[0009] 5) Introducing other monomers into the rubber phase to improve the copolymerization. For example, patent CN105008421B introduces N-vinyl monomers, and US5120788 introduces C atom number 8-20 acrylate monomers in the shell layer of the rubber phase to improve the impact resistance of the ASA resin.

[0010] However, the inventors of the present application found in experimental research that during the preparation of the ASA resin by blending the rubber dispersed phase with a core-shell structure and the SAN resin matrix, the above-mentioned schemes all have different degrees of dispersion phase fragmentation problems. Controlling the dispersion effect of the dispersed phase and the integrity after dispersion is the key to affecting the toughening efficiency of the SAN matrix.

[0011] Therefore, it is urgent to provide a method which can conveniently prepare an ASA resin with high impact resistance and high weather resistance. SUMMARY

[0012] Therefore, the purpose of the present application is to provide a grafting latex for high-impact and high-weather-resistance ASA resin and a preparation method thereof. The grafting latex is prepared by adding a crosslinking agent in the early stage (first 1 / 3 time) of the grafting polymerization reaction of polybutyl acrylate latex, so that the grafting latex has a shell layer with a gradient crosslinking structure. When further dispersed in the SAN matrix, the shell layer with the gradient crosslinking structure can realize the binding effect on the dispersed phase rubber, thereby avoiding the damage of the dispersed phase during the double-screw blending process and improving the impact resistance of the resin.

[0013] The purpose of the present application is also to provide a high-impact and high-weather-resistance ASA resin. The raw material is the above-mentioned grafting latex. During the subsequent preparation of the ASA resin by blending the SAN resin with the double-screw, the integrity of the rubber phase particles as the dispersed phase is maintained, the void effect of the rubber dispersed phase particles is not affected by the physical process of the double-screw blending, and the prepared ASA resin not only ensures high weather resistance but also has better impact strength.
