Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a propylene-based resin composition and uses of a stretched film made thereof, etc. More specifically, the present invention relates to a propylene-based resin composition and a stretched film obtained therefrom that have a good balance between stretchability and heat resistance and good printability. [Background technology]
[0002] Biaxially oriented polypropylene film (OPP) is widely used as an industrial film and food film, and is in high demand. Furthermore, in order to further expand demand for OPP, efforts are being made to improve its performance. One such improvement is to reduce the heat shrinkage rate (a few tens of percent at 150°C). However, with OPP, whose main component is a unit derived from propylene, reducing the heat shrinkage rate (at 150°C) is not an easy task and is fraught with difficulties.
[0003] Patent Document 1 discloses an oriented polypropylene film, the mass average molecular weight (Mw) / number average molecular weight (Mn) of which is 5.5 or more and has a relatively wide molecular weight distribution. With this stretched film, the heat shrinkage rate (at 150° C.) does not become sufficiently small.
[0004] Patent Document 2 discloses an OPP made of a resin composition blended with random PP, which has a relatively small heat shrinkage rate (at 150°C), but has an increased amount of sticky components, resulting in poor printability.
[0005] Patent Document 3 discloses an OPP made of a propylene polymer with a low MFR (0.1 to 15) and a propylene polymer with a high MFR (20 to 500). Such an OPP does not have a good balance between stretchability and heat shrinkage, and stable production may be difficult. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0010] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the relationship between the value of Fm / Fy (-), which is an index of stretchability when forming biaxially stretched films, and the stretch ratio (times) in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0011] Hereinafter, the respective configurations of the polypropylene resin composition of the present invention, the extruded sheet obtained from the composition, and the uniaxially or biaxially stretched film will be described.
[0012] <Propylene-Based Resin Composition> The propylene-based resin composition according to the present invention is characterized in that it satisfies the following requirements 1) to 7). Requirement 1) Mesopentad fraction is 95% or more Requirement 2) Comonomer content is 0.2 mol% or less Requirement 3) MFR is 1 to 10g / 10min Requirement 4) The ratio of mass average molecular weight Mw to number average molecular weight Mn, Mw / Mn, is 4.5 or less. Requirement 5) Z+1 average molecular weight M Z+1 and the ratio M Z+1 / Mn is 50 or less Requirement 6) Z+1 average molecular weight M Z+1 is 2,500,000 or less Requirement 7) Melting point is 150℃ or higher Each requirement is explained below.
[0013] Regarding requirement 1) The mesopentad fraction ([mmmm]%) of the propylene-based resin composition of the present invention is 95% or more, preferably 96% or more, and more preferably 97% or more. The upper limit is preferably 99.5% or less. The mesopentad fraction ([mmmm]%) is an index showing the stereoregularity of a propylene-based resin composition. Within this range, the composition exhibits high crystallinity and a small heat shrinkage rate (at 150° C.). The mesopentad fraction ([mmmm]%) is 13 The measurement is performed by C-NMR, and the details of the measurement are described in the Examples.
[0014] Regarding requirement 2) The comonomer content of the propylene polymer in the propylene resin composition of the present invention is 0.2 mol % or less. The propylene polymer in the propylene resin composition of the present invention is preferably a so-called homopolypropylene consisting only of units derived from propylene, but may be a copolymer with a comonomer, in which case the comonomer content is 0.2 mol% or less, preferably 0.1 mol% or less. Examples of the comonomer include ethylene and α-olefins having 4 to 8 carbon atoms, among which ethylene and 1-butene are preferred. Within this range, the heat shrinkage rate (at 150°C) is small.
[0015] Regarding requirement 3) The MFR (melt flow rate, 230°C, load 2.16 kgf) of the propylene-based polymer composition is 1 to 10 g / 10 min. The lower limit is preferably 2.0 g / 10 min, and more preferably 3.0 g / 10 min. The upper limit is preferably 9.0 g / 10 min or less, and more preferably 8.0 g / 10 min or less. By setting it in such a range, the heat shrinkage rate at high temperatures can be reduced.
[0016] Regarding requirement 4) The propylene-based resin composition of the present invention has a ratio of mass average molecular weight (Mw) to number average molecular weight (Mn), that is, Mw / Mn, of 4.5 or less. Mw and Mn are determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The method of determination will be described in detail in the Examples. The upper limit of the Mw / Mn value is preferably 4.2 or less, and the lower limit is preferably 2.0 or more, and more preferably 2.5 or more. By setting the value in this range, the thermal shrinkage rate at high temperatures can be reduced.
[0017] Requirement 5) The Z+1 average molecular weight M of the propylene-based resin composition of the present invention Z+1 and the ratio M Z+1 / Mn is not more than 50. The upper limit of this ratio is preferably not more than 40, and more preferably not more than 35. The lower limit is generally about 10 or more, and preferably 15 or more. In addition, M Z+1 is measured by GPC, and is defined as the sum of the weight fraction (Xi) of the molecular weight (Mi) at the elution position i of the GPC curve obtained via a molecular weight calibration curve, as follows: Z+1 average molecular weight M Z+1 =Σ(Xi·Mi 4 ) / Σ(Xi·Mi 3 ) (Each Σ means the sum of the values at all elution positions. That is, the sum of the weight fractions Xi is ΣXi=1.) The details of the measurement will be described in the Examples. M Z+1 / Mw is the value that emphasizes the contribution of high molecular weight components in the molecular weight distribution, and is the Z-average molecular weight M defined by the following formula: Z Z average molecular weight Mz=Σ(Xi·Mi 3 ) / Σ(Xi·Mi 2 ) (Each Σ means the sum of the values at all elution positions. That is, the sum of the weight fractions Xi is ΣXi=1.) and Mn ratio M Z This shows the molecular weight distribution value with more emphasis on the contribution of molecular weight than / Mn.
[0018] Regarding requirement 6) The Z+1 average molecular weight M of the propylene polymer composition Z+1 is 2,500,000 or less. The upper limit is preferably 2,000,000 or less. The lower limit is usually 800,000 or more, and preferably 1,000,000 or more. Within this range, the high molecular weight component is sufficient, and the effects of the present invention are easily obtained. In addition, stretch molding of the stretched film can be stably performed.
[0019] Regarding requirement 7) The melting point of the propylene polymer composition of the present invention is 150° C. or higher. In particular, the lower limit is particularly preferably 155° C. or higher. The upper limit is preferably 170° C. or lower, and more preferably 168° C. or lower.
[0020] The propylene-based polymer composition of the present invention preferably has a cold xylene solubles (CXS) of 1.2% by mass or less, more preferably 1.0% by mass or less. Of these, it is more preferably 0.8% by mass or less. The cold xylene solubles (CXS) are generally 0.1% by mass or more. The cold xylene solubles (CXS) can be determined by the following method.
[0021] Cold xylene solubles (CXS) (unit: mass%) 2 g of a sample made of a propylene-based polymer composition is dissolved in 300 mL of p-xylene (containing 0.5 mg / mL of BHT) at 13.0° C., and the resulting solution is allowed to stand at 25° C. After 48 hours, the precipitate and the filtrate are separated by filtration, and the p-xylene is evaporated from the filtrate. The filtrate is then dried under reduced pressure at 100° C. for 12 hours to recover the components dissolved in p-xylene. The ratio (mass %) of the mass (g) of the recovered components to 2 g of the sample is CXS. In order to set the CXS of the propylene polymer composition within the above range, the propylene polymer may be produced using a polymerization catalyst capable of producing a propylene polymer having high stereoregularity.
[0022] If CXS is within the above range, the crystallinity of the propylene-based polymer is sufficiently high, and the heat shrinkage rate at high temperatures (temperature 150° C.) of the stretched film obtained from the polymer can be made smaller. Furthermore, the film is less sticky and has good printability.
[0023] The propylene polymer composition of the present invention that satisfies the above requirements 1) to 7) can be produced by various methods. Propylene polymers having different molecular weights can be produced by multistage polymerization to form a composition, propylene polymers having different molecular weights can be produced by polymerization and then blended in a kneader to form a composition, or a propylene polymer can be polymerized using a plurality of polymerization catalysts having different performances to form a composition. The polymerization catalyst used may be a Ziegler-Natta catalyst or a metallocene catalyst, and the molecular weight of the propylene polymer may be adjusted by the amount of hydrogen present in the polymerization system. Two or more propylene polymers may be mixed or melt-kneaded simultaneously or sequentially using a mixing device such as a Banbury mixer, single-screw extruder, or twin-screw extruder.
[0024] As the propylene-based polymer used in the present invention, a propylene homopolymer or a copolymer of propylene and ethylene or an α-olefin having 4 to 20 carbon atoms as a comonomer is used as long as the above requirements 1) to 7) are satisfied. Examples of the α-olefin having 4 to 20 carbon atoms include 1-butene, 1-pentene, 1-hexene, 4-methyl-1-pentene, 1-octene, 1-decene, 1-dodecene, 1-tetradecene, 1-hexadecene, 1-octadecene, and 1-eicosene. Among these comonomers, ethylene or an α-olefin having 4 to 10 carbon atoms is preferred, and ethylene is more preferred. The propylene-based polymer used in the present invention may contain propylene constituting the polymer, or further a comonomer such as ethylene, derived from biomass. For example, the propylene constituting the polymer may be only biomass-derived propylene, or may contain both biomass-derived propylene and fossil fuel-derived propylene. Biomass-derived propylene is propylene obtained from any renewable natural raw material, such as fungi, yeast, algae, and bacteria, or from plants or animals, and its residues, and contains propylene as carbon. 14 C isotope 10 ―12The biomass-derived propylene is contained in a ratio of about 100 (pMC) as measured in accordance with ASTM D 6866. Biomass-derived propylene is obtained by a conventionally known method. It is preferable that the propylene-based polymer used in the present invention contains biomass-derived propylene from the viewpoint of reducing the environmental load (mainly reducing greenhouse gases). If the polymer production conditions such as the polymerization catalyst, polymerization process, and polymerization temperature are the same, even if the raw material propylene contains biomass-derived propylene, 14 C isotope 10 ―12 ~10 ―14 Other than the proportion of propylene in the polymer, its molecular structure is the same as that of propylene homopolymers made from fossil fuel-derived propylene, and therefore its performance is said to be the same. The propylene-based polymer (A) used in the present invention may contain propylene constituting the polymer, or further a comonomer such as ethylene, derived from chemical recycling. For example, the propylene constituting the polymer may be only propylene derived from chemical recycling, or may contain propylene derived from chemical recycling and propylene derived from fossil fuels and / or propylene derived from biomass. The propylene derived from chemical recycling is obtained by a conventionally known method. It is preferable that the propylene homopolymer (A) according to the present invention contains propylene derived from chemical recycling from the viewpoint of reducing the environmental load (mainly reducing waste). Even if the raw material monomer contains a monomer derived from chemical recycling, the monomer derived from chemical recycling is a monomer obtained by depolymerizing or pyrolyzing a polymer such as waste plastic back to a monomer unit such as propylene, and a monomer produced using the monomer as a raw material. Therefore, if the polymer production conditions such as the polymerization catalyst, polymerization process, and polymerization temperature are the same, the molecular structure is the same as that of a propylene homopolymer made of a monomer derived from fossil fuels. Therefore, the performance is said to be the same.

Polymer B may be a so-called homopolypropylene consisting only of units derived from propylene, or may be a copolymer with a comonomer. In that case, the comonomer content is preferably 0.2 mol % or less, and more preferably 0.1 mol % or less. Examples of the comonomer include ethylene and α-olefins having 4 to 8 carbon atoms, with ethylene being preferred. The MFR (melt flow rate, 230° C., load 2.16 kgf) of polymer B is 8 g / 10 min or more and 100 g / 10 min or less, and the upper limit is preferably 80 g / 10 min or less. The Mw / Mn of the polymer B is 5.0 or less, preferably 4.5 or less, and the lower limit is generally 2.0 or more, preferably 2.5 or more.

[0031] Examples of the antioxidant include phenol-based antioxidants, organic phosphite-based antioxidants, thioether-based antioxidants, hindered amine-based antioxidants, etc. Examples of the antiblocking agent include aluminum oxide, finely divided silica, polymethyl methacrylate powder, silicone resin, etc. Examples of slip agents include bisamides such as ethylene bisstearamide, higher fatty acid amides such as oleic acid amide and erucic acid amide.

Examples of the molding methods include a molding method by extrusion, such as sheet molding, T-die film molding, stretched film molding, calendar molding, inflation molding, etc. The extruded sheet usually has a thickness of 250 to 3000 μm. The unstretched film generally has a thickness of 3 μm or more, preferably 5 to 250 μm, and more preferably 10 to 200 μm.
[0034] A uniaxially or biaxially stretched film can be formed by stretching an extruded sheet or an unstretched film in one or two directions. For biaxial stretching, a method such as sequential biaxial stretching, simultaneous biaxial stretching, or multistage stretching is appropriately used. The stretching ratio is usually 1.5 to 10 times for a uniaxially stretched film, and 1.5 to 7 times in the longitudinal direction and 2 to 10 times in the transverse direction for a sequentially biaxially stretched film.

[0037] As a method for laminating the uniaxially or biaxially stretched film of the present invention with the other layer, a lamination method generally used can be adopted, and in addition to forming these multilayer films by multilayer coextrusion, an adhesive layer can be provided between the uniaxially or biaxially stretched film and the other layer. For example, a method of applying a urethane-based or isocyanate-based anchor coating agent to the other layer and dry laminating the uniaxially or biaxially stretched film of the present invention, or a method of extrusion laminating or extrusion coating the other layer on the uniaxially or biaxially stretched film can be adopted.

In addition, the multilayer film has functions such as mechanical strength and gas barrier properties due to the other layers of the multilayer film, and is expected to be used in a wider range of applications as a packaging material.

[0048] <Heat shrinkage rate (temperature 150℃) (unit: %)> The sample biaxially stretched film was placed in a hot air oven and heated at 150°C for 15 minutes. The heat shrinkage rate was the ratio of the length that had shrunk to the dimension before heating. The longitudinal stretching direction was defined as MD, and the transverse stretching direction was defined as TD.
[0049] <Stretchability>(Fm / Fy) The evaluation was carried out using the following method, with reference to Satoshi Tamura, Kuramoto Masataka, Toshitaka Kanai, Proceedings of the 17th Autumn Meeting of the Society of Plastics Processing (November 6-7, 2009, Nagasaki). A 30mmφ sheet forming machine (GM Engineering) was used to prepare an unstretched raw material approximately 150mm wide. This was then cut to 90mm length x 90mm width. The raw material was then stretched 5 times in the machine direction (MD) at a preheating temperature of 153°C for 90 seconds in a table tenter biaxial stretching machine (Bruckner) at a stretching temperature of 153°C. The stretched material was then stretched 8 times in the transverse direction (TD) at the same stretching temperature. The yield force Fy (N) and maximum force Fm (N) were determined from the stretching force-stretch ratio curve measured with a load cell, and the stretching force ratio Fm / Fy was calculated as an index of stretchability. The Fm / Fy value is an index showing the stretchability when the film is stretched, and a larger value indicates better stretchability.
[0050] Example 1 In Example 1, a propylene-based polymer composition was used containing polymer A (main resin) and polymer B (low molecular weight component) shown in Table 2 in the ratios shown in Table 2. The physical properties of this composition are shown in Tables 1 and 2. Using the propylene-based polymer composition of Example 1, an unstretched raw sheet was prepared by a sheet forming machine, and cut into a size of 90 mm length x 90 mm width. The cut sheet was stretched 5 times in the machine direction (MD) at a stretching temperature of 153°C with a preheating time of 90 sec in a table tenter biaxial stretching machine, and then stretched 8 times in the transverse direction (TD) at the same stretching temperature (stretching speed of 286% / sec for both machine and transverse stretching), and relaxed at a heat setting temperature of 150°C (machine direction: 5% and transverse direction: 5%) to obtain a sequentially biaxially stretched film having a thickness of 20 microns (μm).
[0051] Example 2 and Example 4 Using the propylene polymer compositions of Examples 2 and 4 shown in Table 1, axially stretched films were obtained under the same conditions as in Example 1. The physical properties were evaluated in the same manner as in Example 1, and the results are shown in Table 1.
[0052] Comparative Examples 1 to 5 A biaxially stretched film was formed in the same manner as in Example 1 using the propylene-based polymer composition shown in Table 1. The physical properties of the obtained biaxially stretched film are shown in Table 1.
[0053] However, for Polymer A, Polymer B, and Polymer C, the following were used. Polymer A Commercially available propylene polymer (Prime Polymer Co., Ltd., product name F133A) Polymer B (1) Polymer B-1 Commercially available propylene polymer (Prime Polymer Co., Ltd., product name S119) (2) Polymer B-2 Commercially available propylene polymer (Prime Polymer Co., Ltd., product name Y-2000GV) (3) Polymer B-3 Commercially available propylene polymer (Prime Polymer Co., Ltd., product name S135) (4) Polymer B-4 Commercially available propylene polymer (Prime Polymer Co., Ltd., product name S229R) (5) Polymer B-5 Commercially available propylene polymer (Prime Polymer Co., Ltd., product name Y-2045GP) (6) Polymer B-6 Commercially available propylene polymer (Prime Polymer Co., Ltd., product name S235WC) Polymer C (1) Polymer C The polymer used was that obtained in the following Reference Example (Polymer C).
[0054] Reference example (polymer C) Polymer C was obtained by the following: A propylene-based polymer was used as the support with dicyclopentyldimethoxysilane as the electron donor. Using a supported titanium catalyst (high stereoregularity catalyst), random copolymerization with an ethylene unit content of 0.6 mol% was performed in two stages to obtain a propylene-ethylene copolymer with a broadened molecular weight distribution, with the amounts of 52 wt% high molecular weight copolymer with an intrinsic viscosity [η] of 4.3 dl / g and 48 wt% low molecular weight copolymer with an intrinsic viscosity [η] of 2.1 dl / g being adjusted. For 100% by weight of the copolymer, 0.1 parts by weight of tetrakis[methylene-3(3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate]methane (manufactured by BASF Ltd.), a phenol-based antioxidant, 0.1 parts by weight of 2,2-methylenebis(4,6-di-t-butylphenyl)octylphosphite (manufactured by ADEKA Corp.), a phosphorus-based antioxidant, and 0.1 parts by weight of calcium stearate (manufactured by Nippon Oil & Fats Co., Ltd.) as a neutralizing agent were blended, and the mixture was melt-kneaded at a resin temperature of 230°C using a single-screw extruder and granulated into pellets.
[0055] For Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5, the relationship between the stretchability indicated by the value of Fm / Fy and the shrinkage rate (%) in the TD direction is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, in Examples 1, 2, and 3, the stretchability is well maintained and the shrinkage rate (%) in the TD direction is small. On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the stretchability is poor. Also, in Comparative Examples 3, 4, and 5, the stretchability was excellent, but the thermal shrinkage rate (%) in the TD direction was larger than that in each of the Examples.
