Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a polyethylene resin composition, and more specifically to a polyethylene resin composition comprising a specific ethylene-α-olefin copolymer and a high-pressure low-density polyethylene, and a foam. [Background technology]
[0002] Polyethylene resin foams are widely used mainly for buffer materials, cushioning materials, shock absorbing materials, etc., and are roughly divided into non-crosslinked foams and crosslinked foams. In recent years, from the viewpoint of reducing environmental load, interest in improving the recyclability of plastic materials has been increasing, and the demand for non-crosslinking of crosslinked products is also increasing in polyethylene resin foams. When manufacturing a non-crosslinked polyethylene resin foam with a high expansion ratio, a polyethylene with a high melt tension is required, so it is known that a low-density polyethylene having long chain branches manufactured by a high-pressure method (hereinafter, high-pressure low-density polyethylene) is used. Non-crosslinked foams made of high-pressure low-density polyethylene are flexible and have excellent compression durability, so they are suitably used for applications in which they are repeatedly compressed (such as buffer materials), but have the disadvantage that the temperature range for molding is very narrow because of the sudden change in viscosity during secondary processing such as thermoforming. In order to solve such problems, it has been proposed to use a mixture of high-pressure low-density polyethylene and linear low-density polyethylene or high-density polyethylene (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2). The present inventors have also found that ethylene-α-olefin copolymers that satisfy specific requirements have excellent foaming properties and extrusion foam moldability (see, for example, Patent Documents 3 and 4). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] However, the methods proposed in the above Patent Documents 1 and 2 require the use of linear polyethylene that has low melt tension and does not exhibit foamability, and flexibility is lost during repeated compression, making it difficult to apply the methods to cushioning materials that are frequently subjected to compression. An object of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the above prior art and provide a non-crosslinked polyethylene foam that has a high expansion ratio, excellent compression durability and secondary processability. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a polyethylene resin composition for extrusion foam molding which can provide a foam having a high expansion ratio and excellent heat resistance and secondary processability. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0007] The present invention will be described in detail below.
[0008] The polyethylene resin composition according to one embodiment of the present invention has an MFR of 0.5 g / 10 min or more and less than 10 g / 10 min and a density of 930 kg / m 3 More than 945kg / m 3 The following ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A) is 50-90% by weight, has an MFR of 0.1 g / 10 min or more and less than 10 g / 10 min, and has a density of 925 kg / m 3 More than 935kg / m 3 A polyethylene resin composition comprising 5 to 30% by weight of the following high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) and 5 to 20% by weight of an ethylene polymer (C) having an MFR of 20 g / 10 min or more and less than 200 g / 10 min, wherein the density difference between the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A) and the high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) is 15 kg / m 3 The polyethylene resin composition is as follows:
[0009] The ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A) has an MFR of 0.5 g / 10 min or more and less than 10 g / 10 min and a density of 930 kg / m 3 More than 950kg / m 3 Any ethylene-α-olefin copolymer may be used so long as it falls within the category of ethylene-α-olefin copolymers described below.
[0010] The MFR of the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A) is 0.5 g / 10 min or more and less than 10 g / 10 min, preferably 0.7 g / 10 min or more and less than 8.0 g / 10 min. If the MFR is less than 0.5 g / 10 min, the load on the extruder increases when molding into a polyethylene resin composition, resulting in reduced productivity. On the other hand, if the MFR is 10 g / 10 min or more, the polyethylene resin composition will be inferior in foamability and mechanical strength.
[0011] The density of the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A) is 930 kg / m 3 More than 950kg / m 3 The density is 950kg / m 3 If the density exceeds 930 kg / m, the compatibility of the polyethylene resin composition obtained by blending with the high-pressure low-density polyethylene is poor, and when the composition is extruded into a foam, the cells are united, and the foam does not have uniform and fine cells, resulting in a foam that is inferior in compression durability. 3 If it is less than this, the resulting polyethylene resin composition will have excellent flexibility but poor heat resistance.
[0012] Examples of ethylene-α-olefin copolymers (A) that satisfy the above requirements include (trade name) Nipolon-L M50 (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation), (trade name) Nipolon-Z ZF260 (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation), and (trade name) TOSOH-HMS 10S65B.
[0013] High-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) has an MFR of 0.1 g / 10 min or more and less than 10 g / 10 min and a density of 925 kg / m 3 More than 935kg / m 3Any of the following high-pressure low-density polyethylenes may be used as long as they are low-density polyethylenes produced by a high-pressure process.
[0014] The high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) has an MFR of 0.1 g / 10 min or more and less than 10 g / 10 min, preferably 0.3 g / 10 min or more and less than 8.0 g / 10 min, so that the load on the extruder when molded into a polyethylene resin composition is small and the polyethylene resin composition has excellent foamability and mechanical strength.
[0015] In addition, the compatibility with the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A) is improved, resulting in a polyethylene resin composition with high melt tension, excellent extrusion foamability, and excellent heat resistance, and a density of 925 kg / m 3 More than 935kg / m 3 less than 930 kg / m 3 More than 935kg / m 3 Here, the high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) and the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A) have extremely good compatibility with each other, and a polyethylene-based resin composition that can be easily foamed is obtained, so the density difference is 15 kg / m 3 less than 10 kg / m 3 The following is the result.
[0016] Examples of the high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) that satisfies the above-mentioned requirements include (trade name) Petrothene 220K (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation), (trade name) Petrothene 219 (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation), and (trade name) Petrothene 221.
[0017] The ethylene polymer (C) may be any ethylene polymer as long as it belongs to the category of ethylene polymers having an MFR of 20 g / 10 min or more and less than 200 g / 10 min. Examples of such ethylene polymers include high-pressure low-density polyethylene, linear low-density polyethylene, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. In particular, high-pressure low-density polyethylene is preferred because it gives a polyethylene resin composition with excellent moldability.
[0018] The ethylene polymer (C) has an MFR of 20 g / 10 min or more and less than 200 g / 10 min, preferably 20 g / 10 min or more and less than 150 g / 10 min, so that the load on the extruder is small when molding into a polyethylene resin composition and the polyethylene resin composition has extremely excellent foamability.
[0019] The density of the ethylene polymer (C) is 900 kg / m because it becomes a flexible foam. 3 More than 945kg / m 3 It is preferable that the content is equal to or less than 900 kg / m 3 More than 925kg / m 3 It is preferable that:
[0020] Examples of ethylene polymers (C) that satisfy the above requirements include (trade name) Petrothene 219 (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation), (trade name) Petrothene 221 (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation), and (trade name) Ultrathene 526 (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation).
[0021] In the polyethylene resin composition, the content of the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A), the high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) and the ethylene polymer (C) is 90-50% by weight, preferably 90-40% by weight, of the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A). If the content exceeds 90% by weight, the foamability is poor. On the other hand, if the content is less than 50% by weight, the heat resistance is poor. The content of the high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) is 5-30% by weight, preferably 10-25% by weight. If the content exceeds 30% by weight, the heat resistance is impaired. On the other hand, if the content is less than 5% by weight, the foam moldability is poor. The content of the ethylene polymer (C) is 5-20% by weight, preferably 5-15% by weight. If the content exceeds 20% by weight, bubbles grow in the die, making molding difficult. On the other hand, if the blending amount is less than 5% by weight, the foam moldability is poor. Here, (A), (B) and (C) are mixed so that the total amount of each is 100% by weight.
[0022] The above resin composition may contain components other than the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A), the high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) and the ethylene polymer (C) as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired.
[0023] The polyethylene resin composition has a high closed cell ratio and a high expansion ratio, and therefore has an MFR of 0.8 g / 10 min or more and less than 6 g / 10 min and a density of 925 kg / m 3 More than 935kg / m 3 and the melt tension is preferably 30 mN or more and less than 80 mN.
[0024] Since the polyethylene resin composition is a resin composition with excellent heat resistance, it is preferable that the heat of fusion at 120° C. or higher as measured by DSC is 25 J / g or more.
[0025] The polyethylene resin composition can be obtained by mixing the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (A), the high-pressure low-density polyethylene (B) and the ethylene polymer (C) by a conventionally known method, for example, by using a Henschel mixer, a V-blender, a ribbon blender, a tumbler blender or the like, or by melt-kneading the mixture obtained by such a method using a single-screw extruder, a twin-screw extruder, a kneader, a Banbury mixer or the like, and then granulating the mixture.
[0026] The polyethylene resin composition may contain known additives such as a heat stabilizer, a weather stabilizer, an antistatic agent, an antifogging agent, an antiblocking agent, a slip agent, a lubricant, a nucleating agent, a pigment, an inorganic filler or reinforcing agent such as carbon black, talc, glass powder or glass fiber, an organic filler or reinforcing agent, a flame retardant, and a neutron shielding agent.
[0027] The polyethylene resin composition can be extruded without the addition of a crosslinking agent to produce a non-crosslinked extruded foam having excellent heat resistance. If the extruded foam has a closed cell ratio of 70% or more, the foam has excellent compression durability, which is preferable.
[0028] The non-crosslinked extrusion foam molded product, which is one aspect of the present invention, is a foam made of the above polyethylene resin composition. Any method may be used as the manufacturing method of the above foam as long as a foam can be obtained. For example, a method in which a polyethylene resin composition and a bubble regulator such as talc, a shrinkage inhibitor, etc., which are added as necessary, are fed to an extruder, heated and melted, kneaded, and a foaming agent is further fed to form a foamable molten resin mixture, and then the extrusion resin temperature, the internal pressure of the extrusion die, the discharge amount, etc. are adjusted, and the mixture is extruded into a low pressure region from a die attached to the tip of the extruder to be foamed. In addition, by selecting a die to be attached to the tip of the extruder according to the shape of the desired foam, extruded foams of various shapes such as a round rod-shaped foam, a sheet-shaped foam, and a plate-shaped foam can be manufactured. For example, a round rod-shaped foam can be obtained by attaching a strand die, a sheet-shaped foam can be obtained by attaching an annular die, and a plate-shaped foam can be manufactured by attaching a slit die.
[0029] The foam made of the polyethylene resin composition can be formed by feeding the polyethylene resin composition, additives, foaming agent, etc. to an extruder, heating and melting kneading the mixture to obtain a foamable molten resin mixture, and then extruding the mixture from the extruder into a low pressure region while adjusting the extrusion resin temperature within an appropriate range. The specific extrusion resin temperature is preferably adjusted to within the range of (melting point of polyethylene resin composition -10°C) to (melting point of polyethylene resin composition +10°C) based on the melting point of the polyethylene resin composition, and more preferably adjusted to within the range of (melting point of polyethylene resin composition -5°C) to (melting point of polyethylene resin composition +5°C). The melting point of the polyethylene resin composition is the apex temperature of the peak determined from a test piece subjected to a certain heat treatment according to JIS K7121 (1987) using a heat flux DSC curve. Examples of the foaming agent used in the extrusion foam molding include inorganic gas foaming agents such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, argon, and air; volatile foaming agents such as propane, butane, pentane, hexane, cyclobutane, cyclohexane, trichlorofluoromethane, and dichlorodifluoromethane; and chemical foaming agents that are liquid or solid at room temperature and generate gas when heated, such as azodicarbonamide, barium azodicarboxylate, N,N-dinitrosopentamethylenetetramine, 4,4'-oxybis(benzenesulfonylhydrazide), diphenylsulfone-3,3'-disulfonylhydrazide, p-toluenesulfonylsemicarbazide, trihydrazinotriazine, biurea, and zinc carbonate. The amount of the foaming agent added is preferably 1 to 20 parts by weight, and particularly preferably 3 to 15 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the polyethylene resin composition.
[0030] The foam has a high expansion ratio, excellent compression durability and secondary processability, and can be used for applications such as heat retaining materials and building materials. EXAMPLES
