[0016] In this specification, the term "recycled propylene resin composition" means a propylene resin composition that has been subjected to processing such as molding, or has been used for some final application, and then undergoes a recovery process and is reused. The same applies to other "recycled xxx" compositions.
[0017] In one embodiment, the process for preparing the recycled propylene resin composition may include optional steps other than the recovery step, such as a crushing step, a refining step, a melting step, a kneading step with other substances, and a pelletizing step. Examples of the refining step include washing with water, aqueous and / or oil-based chemicals, microbial treatment, magnetic separation, and gravity separation. Examples of the molded products include, but are not limited to, injection molded products.

Although the meaning is redundant, examples of vehicles include cars, automobiles, motorcycles, trolleybuses, trains, and bicycles. In one embodiment, component A of the present invention is derived from automobile bumpers, i.e., refers to a propylene polymer that is reused after automobile bumpers that have been subjected to a recovery process are subjected to any process, such as a crushing process or a melting process.
[0020] Component A contains a propylene polymer. The weight ratio of the propylene polymer relative to the total weight of Component A is preferably 50% by weight or more, 60% by weight or more, 70% by weight or more, or 80% by weight or more. The weight ratio of the propylene polymer relative to the total weight of Component A is preferably 95% by weight or less, or 90% by weight or less.
[0021] Examples of the propylene polymer contained in Component A include a propylene homopolymer, a random copolymer of propylene and a monomer other than propylene, and a heterophasic propylene polymer material. The propylene resin composition of the present invention may contain only one type of Component A, or may contain two or more types. From the viewpoint of rigidity and impact resistance of a molded article, Component A preferably contains at least one selected from the group consisting of a propylene homopolymer and a heterophasic propylene polymer material.
[0022] The isotactic pentad fraction (also referred to as mmmm fraction) of the propylene polymer contained in component A is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 1.000 or less, 0.998 or less, 0.995 or less, or 0.990 or less. The lower limit is also not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 0.900 or more, or 0.925 or more. From the viewpoint of rigidity and dimensional stability of a molded article made from the resin composition, the lower limit is preferably 0.950 or more.
[0023] The isotactic pentad fraction refers to the isotactic fraction in pentad units. In other words, the isotactic pentad fraction indicates the proportion of structures in which five consecutive propylene-derived monomer units are meso-bonded when viewed in pentad units. When the target component is a copolymer, the isotactic pentad fraction refers to a value measured for the chain of propylene-derived monomer units.
[0024] In this specification, the isotactic pentad fraction is 13 This refers to the value measured by C-NMR spectroscopy. 13 The ratio of the area of the mmmm peak to the area of all absorption peaks in the methyl carbon region obtained by C-NMR spectroscopy is defined as the isotactic pentad fraction. 13 The method for measuring the isotactic pentad fraction by C-NMR spectroscopy is described, for example, in Macromolecules, 6, 925 (1973) by A. Zambelli et al., where: 13 The assignment of absorption peaks obtained by C-spectrometry is based on the description in Macromolecules, 8, 687 (1975).

[0026] In this specification, the intrinsic viscosity (unit: dL / g) is a value measured at a temperature of 135°C using tetralin as a solvent by the following method.
[0027] Using an Ubbelohde viscometer, the reduced viscosity is measured at three concentrations: 0.1 g / dL, 0.2 g / dL, and 0.5 g / dL. The reduced viscosity is plotted against the concentration, and the intrinsic viscosity is calculated by extrapolation, extrapolating the concentration to zero. The method for calculating the limiting viscosity by extrapolation is described, for example, on page 491 of "Polymer Solutions, Polymer Experiments 11" (published by Kyoritsu Shuppan Co., Ltd. in 1982).
[0028] The molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) of the propylene homopolymer is preferably 3.0 or more, more preferably 4.0 or more. The molecular weight distribution of Component A may be 30.0 or less, or may be 25.0 or less. The molecular weight distribution of Component A is preferably 3.0 to 30.0, more preferably 4.0 to 25.0.
[0029] As used herein, the molecular weight distribution refers to the ratio (Mw / Mn) of the weight average molecular weight (Mw) to the number average molecular weight (Mn), calculated using the weight average molecular weight (Mw) and number average molecular weight (Mn) measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) under the following conditions: Equipment: Tosoh Corporation HLC-8121 GPC / HT Separation column: Tosoh Corporation GMHHR-H(S)HT (3 columns) Measurement temperature: 140℃ Carrier: Orthodichlorobenzene Flow rate: 1.0mL / min Sample concentration: approximately 1 mg / mL Sample injection volume: 400 μL Detector: Differential refraction Calibration curve creation method: Use standard polystyrene

[0033] In the initial production, a polymer obtained by prepolymerizing propylene in the presence of the polymerization catalyst may be used as the polymerization catalyst.
[0034] Examples of polymerization methods include bulk polymerization, solution polymerization, and gas-phase polymerization. Here, bulk polymerization refers to a method in which polymerization is carried out using an olefin that is liquid at the polymerization temperature as a medium, and solution polymerization refers to a method in which polymerization is carried out in an inert hydrocarbon solvent such as propane, butane, isobutane, pentane, hexane, heptane, or octane. Gas-phase polymerization refers to a method in which gaseous monomers are used as a medium and the gaseous monomers are polymerized in that medium.
[0035] Examples of the polymerization method include a batch method, a continuous method, and a combination thereof. The polymerization method may be a multi-stage method in which a plurality of polymerization reactors are connected in series.
[0036] From the viewpoint of industrial and economical excellence, the polymerization method is preferably a continuous gas phase polymerization method or a bulk-gas phase polymerization method in which a bulk polymerization method and a gas phase polymerization method are carried out continuously.
[0037] Various conditions in the polymerization step (polymerization conditions such as polymerization temperature, polymerization pressure, monomer concentration, catalyst input amount, and polymerization time) may be appropriately determined depending on the molecular structure of the target polymer.
[0038] Other steps may be carried out before or after the polymerization step. For example, after the polymerization step, the polymer may be dried at a temperature below the melting point of the polymer, if necessary, to remove residual solvent contained in the polymer and ultralow molecular weight oligomers produced as by-products during production. Examples of drying methods include those described in JP-A-55-75410 and JP-A-2565753.

The extract is then concentrated under reduced pressure using a rotary evaporator to obtain a polymer component. Approximately 2 g of the resulting polymer component is precisely weighed (this "weight of polymer component" is designated "a") and dissolved in boiling xylene for 2 hours by heating. After cooling to 20°C, the solution is filtered using filter paper. The filtrate is then concentrated under reduced pressure using a rotary evaporator to obtain the CXS component. The resulting CXS component is precisely weighed (this "weight of CXS component" is designated "b"). The weight ratio of the CXIS component in component A and the weight ratio of the CXS component are calculated using the following formulas using the values a and b.
