[0077] That is, the xylylene diisocyanate composition of the present invention contains xylylene diisocyanate and a specific compound described below as essential components.

[0078] Hereinafter, the xylylenediisocyanate composition is referred to as an XDI composition, and xylylenediisocyanate is referred to as XDI.

[0079] Examples of XDI include 1,2-XDI (ortho-XDI), 1,3-XDI (meta-XDI), and 1,4-XDI (para-XDI).

[0082] XDI can be produced, for example, by a known hydrochloride method. Specifically, XDI can be produced by reacting the hydrochloride of xylylenediamine with phosgene under normal pressure (0.1 MPa). In addition, XDI is purified, for example, by a known purification method as required. As purification methods, for example, rectification (distillation) and extraction can be cited.

[0198] Example

[0199] The following examples are shown to more specifically illustrate the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The specific numerical values ​​such as the mixing ratio (containing ratio), physical property values, and parameters used in the following description can be replaced by the corresponding upper limit values ​​(defined as "below" or "less than") or lower limit values ​​(defined as "above" or "exceeding") recorded in the above-mentioned "Specific Implementation Methods". It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, "parts" and "%" are mass references.

[0200] <Evaluation Method>

[0201] In the examples, the methods for evaluating the properties of the plastic lenses are as follows.

[0202] <Refractive index (ne), Abbe number (νe)>

[0203] The refractive index (ne, nF', nC') at a wavelength of 546.1 nm (mercury e-line), a wavelength of 480.0 nm (Cd F' line), and a wavelength of 643.9 nm (Cd C' line) were measured using a Pulfrich refractometer KPR-30 manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation, and the refractive index (ne) and the Abbe number (νe) were determined.

[0204] <Heat resistance>

[0205] The TMA-60 thermomechanical analyzer manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation was used for the TMA penetration method (50 g load, needle tip The glass transition temperature Tg was measured at a heating rate of 10°C / min and used as an indicator of heat resistance.

[0206] <Calculation of the yellow index value (YI value) of plastic lens (resin)>

[0207] The resin was formed into a circular flat plastic lens having a thickness of 9 mm and a diameter of 75 mm, and the YI value was determined using a spectrophotometer CM-5 manufactured by Konica Minolta.

[0208] It should be noted that there is the following correlation: the smaller the YI value, the better the hue of the plastic lens, and the larger the YI value, the worse the hue.

[0209] <Devitrification of plastic lenses (resins)>

[0210] The resin was made into a circular flat plastic lens with a thickness of 9 mm and a diameter of 75 mm. Light from a light source (Luminar Ace LA-150A manufactured by H-repic) was allowed to pass through the flat lens. The image of the light passing through the flat lens was captured in an image processing device (manufactured by Ube Information Systems Co., Ltd.), and the captured image was subjected to shading processing. The shading degree of the processed image was digitized for each pixel, and the average value of the shading degree of each pixel was obtained to obtain the devitrification of the flat lens.

[0211] The smaller the devitrification degree is, the less the transparency of the resin (here, the flat lens) is impaired (that is, the transparency of the resin is excellent).

[0212] 2. Preparation Example 1: Preparation of XDI

[0213] An autoclave (internal volume 2m2) equipped with a reflux condenser, stirring blade, thermometer, hydrogen chloride gas inlet pipe, phosgene inlet pipe, raw material tank, and raw material charging pump and a pressure regulator was prepared. 3 ) was used as a reactor. 846 kg of o-dichlorobenzene as an inert solvent was placed in the reactor, and 136.2 kg (1.0 k mol) of m-xylylenediamine and 621 kg of o-dichlorobenzene (total amine concentration: 8.5 mass %) were placed in the raw material tank.

[0214] Next, the temperature in the reactor was raised to 120°C, and the internal pressure was adjusted to a pressure 0.01 MPa higher than the atmospheric pressure. Then, hydrogen chloride gas was fed into the reactor from the hydrogen chloride gas inlet pipe at a rate of 43.8 kg / hr. At the same time, meta-xylylenediamine diluted with an inert solvent was fed from the raw material tank at a rate of 379 kg / hr using a raw material feeding pump, and the entire amount was fed over 2 hours. Then, aging was performed for 1 hour while feeding hydrogen chloride gas at a rate of 20 kg / hr.

[0215] Next, the reaction solution (hydrochloride slurry) was heated to 160°C in the reactor, and phosgene was introduced from the phosgene inlet pipe at 100 kg / hr (1.0 kmol / hr), and the reaction was carried out for 8 hours while maintaining the temperature. After the reaction was completed, nitrogen was purged into the reactor to remove unreacted phosgene and hydrogen chloride gas. Then, the reaction solution was filtered to remove 0.8 kg (dry weight) of unreacted hydrochloride. The obtained filtrate was freed from the solvent to obtain 188.6 kg of reaction material with a purity of 98.10% of m-XDI.

[0216] Next, the obtained reaction material was distilled to obtain meta-XDI having a meta-XDI purity of 99.99 mass %.

[0217] 3. Preparation Example 2: Preparation of isocyanate containing formyl group

[0218] Into a 500 ml pressure-resistant autoclave were placed 10 g (0.078 mol) of 1,3-dicyanobenzene (manufactured by Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), 16.6 g (0.0078 mol of palladium) of a 5 mass % palladium-supported carbon catalyst (manufactured by NECHEMCAT CORPORATION, NX type 49 mass % water-containing product), and 100 g of methanol (manufactured by Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) as a reaction solvent.

[0219] Next, nitrogen was supplied into the autoclave to raise the pressure in the autoclave to 3.1 MPa (absolute pressure), and then nitrogen was discharged from the autoclave to reduce the pressure in the autoclave to 0.2 MPa (absolute pressure). This operation was repeated four times to replace the autoclave with nitrogen.

[0220] Next, hydrogen was supplied to the autoclave to raise the pressure in the autoclave to 2.1 MPa (absolute pressure), and then hydrogen was discharged from the autoclave to reduce the pressure in the autoclave to 0.2 MPa (absolute pressure). This operation was repeated four times to replace the autoclave with hydrogen.

[0221] Next, hydrogen was supplied into the autoclave using a pressure accumulator to raise the pressure in the autoclave to 1.0 MPa (absolute pressure). Then, while the pressure in the autoclave was maintained, the contents in the autoclave were stirred to allow 1,3-dicyanobenzene to undergo a hydrogenation reaction.

[0222] When about 75% of the theoretical amount of hydrogen was absorbed, the autoclave was replaced with nitrogen to remove hydrogen from the autoclave.

[0223] Next, the reaction solution was filtered using filter paper to remove the palladium-supported carbon catalyst from the reaction solution, and then the filtrate was concentrated using a rotary evaporator. Then, low-boiling components were removed from the concentrated filtrate using a vacuum pump.

[0224] Thus, a composition containing 1-iminomethyl-3-(aminomethyl)benzene as a main component was obtained. This composition was hydrolyzed to obtain a composition containing 3-(aminomethyl)benzaldehyde as a main component.

[0225] Next, a composition containing 3-(aminomethyl)benzaldehyde as a main component is reacted with triphosgene in toluene to prepare a formyl group-containing isocyanate (3-(isocyanatomethyl)benzaldehyde) represented by the above chemical formula (2). After toluene is distilled off from the reaction solution, the formyl group-containing isocyanate is obtained by vacuum distillation.

[0226] The obtained formyl group-containing isocyanate was analyzed under the above-mentioned gas chromatography-mass spectrometry measurement conditions. As a result, a peak was confirmed at a retention time of 14.0 minutes to 14.6 minutes.

[0227] 4. Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Example 1

[0228] The XDI obtained in Preparation Example 1 and the formyl group-containing isocyanate obtained in Preparation Example 2 were mixed so that the content ratio of the formyl group-containing isocyanate in the XDI composition became the value shown in Table 1. Thus, an XDI composition was obtained.

[0229] It should be noted that the content ratio of the formyl group-containing isocyanate in the XDI composition was calculated as follows: the following internal standard substance was added to the obtained XDI composition, and the analysis was performed under the above-mentioned gas chromatography-mass spectrometry measurement conditions, and the area ratio of the internal standard substance appearing at a retention time of 12.1 minutes to the formyl group-containing isocyanate appearing at a retention time of 14.0 minutes to 14.6 minutes was calculated. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0230] Internal standard substance: 0.5 mg of methylnaphthalene was added to 100 mg of the analysis sample and the volume was fixed to 10 mL.

[0231] 5. Manufacture of plastic lenses

[0232] At 20°C, 52 parts by mass of the XDI composition of each embodiment and each comparative example, 0.01 parts by mass of dibutyltin dichloride as a curing catalyst, 0.10 parts by mass of ZELEC UN (product of Stepan; acidic phosphate), and 1.5 parts by mass of BioSorb 583 (made by Sakai Chemical Co., Ltd.; ultraviolet absorber) were mixed and dissolved. 48 parts by mass of a polythiol component with 4-mercaptomethyl-1,8-dimercapto-3,6-dithiaoctane as the main component was added and mixed to prepare a mixed uniform liquid. After degassing the uniform liquid at 600 Pa for 1 hour, it was filtered with a 1μm Teflon (registered trademark) filter and then injected into a mold consisting of a glass mold and tape. The mold was put into an oven, gradually heated from 10°C to 120°C, and polymerized for 38 hours. After the polymerization was completed, the mold was taken out of the oven and demolded to obtain a resin. The obtained resin was further annealed at 120° C. for 1 hour to produce a plastic lens. The various properties were determined based on the aforementioned evaluation methods for various properties of plastic lenses. The results are shown in Table 1.
