Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a polyamide resin composition and a film obtained therefrom. [Background technology]

[0002] Polyamide resins have excellent mechanical strength, thermal properties, chemical properties and moldability, and are therefore widely used in a variety of parts in the automotive and electronic / electrical fields, as well as in films, fibers and monofilaments. Among these applications, polyamide resin films are widely used due to their excellent gas barrier properties and mechanical properties. Polyamide resin films are made from compositions containing polyamide resins as well as lubricants and other additives.

[0003] As a method for producing polyamide resins containing such additives, Patent Document 1 describes a method in which inorganic particles and a portion of a lubricant are prepared as a masterbatch and added to the polyamide resin. Patent Document 2 describes a specific method for producing a film from a polyamide resin composition using different masterbatches for different types of additives. Patent Document 3 describes a method in which a polyamide resin having a specific relative viscosity is used as the main component, and a masterbatch in which a lubricant is blended with a polyamide having a lower relative viscosity than the main component is mixed with the main component polyamide resin to obtain a film. Patent Document 4 describes a film made from a polyamide resin composition in which an antiblocking agent and a lubricant are added to a combination of polyamide resins having different relative viscosity ranges. Patent Document 5 discloses a metal stearate having a hydroxyl group as a lubricant to be added to a polyamide resin. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0022] The aliphatic homopolyamide resin (A1) has a relative viscosity of more than 3.50 and not more than 4.50, preferably 3.60 or more and 4.50 or less, more preferably 3.60 or more and 4.20 or less, and even more preferably 3.80 or more and 4.20 or less.

[0045] When the aliphatic copolyamide resin (A4) contains two or more polyamide resins with different relative viscosities, the relative viscosity is determined by the same method as explained in the section on the aliphatic homopolyamide resin (A1).

[0046] The terminal amino group concentration of the aliphatic copolyamide resin (A4) is preferably 25 to 40 μmol / g, more preferably 28 to 40 μmol / g, and even more preferably 30 to 40 μmol / g, as determined by dissolving the resin in a mixed solvent of phenol and methanol and subjecting it to neutralization titration.

[0048] The content of the aliphatic copolyamide resin (A4) in 100% by mass of the polyamide resin composition is 0 to 15.00% by mass, preferably 2.00 to 11.00% by mass, more preferably 4.00 to 12.00% by mass, and even more preferably 5.00 to 10.00% by mass. The content of the aliphatic copolyamide resin (A4) in the above range is desirable from the viewpoint of puncture resistance without impairing the effects of the present invention.

[0049] <Polyamide resin> Examples of polyamide resin production equipment include known polyamide production equipment such as batch-type reaction vessels, single- or multi-vessel continuous reaction vessels, tubular continuous reaction vessels, and kneading reaction extruders such as single-screw kneading extruders and twin-screw kneading extruders. Known polymerization methods, such as melt polymerization, solution polymerization, and solid-state polymerization, can be used, and polymerization can be carried out by repeating operations under normal pressure, reduced pressure, and increased pressure. These polymerization methods can be used alone or in appropriate combination.

[0050] The content of the aliphatic polyamide resin (A) in 100% by mass of the polyamide resin composition is 85.00 to 99.75% by mass, preferably 90.00 to 99.70% by mass, and more preferably 95.00 to 99.60% by mass. When the content of the aliphatic polyamide resin (A) is within the above range, the composition has excellent pinhole resistance and impact strength, and is also excellent in moldability.

[0051] <Metal salts of fatty acids with 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B)> The polyamide resin composition contains (B) a metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms. Examples of metal salts of fatty acids having 6 to 24 carbon atoms include metal salts of stearic acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, behenic acid, oleic acid, and arachidic acid, such as magnesium stearate, zinc stearate, lithium stearate, calcium stearate, and aluminum palmitate. The metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms may have a hydroxyl group. Examples of the metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms and having a hydroxyl group include metal stearates having a hydroxyl group. The metal salts of fatty acids having 6 to 24 carbon atoms may be used alone or in combination of two or more, but it is preferable to use a combination of two or more from the viewpoint of improving lubricity.

[0052] The content of the metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B) in 100% by mass of the polyamide resin composition is 0.25 to 1.00% by mass, preferably 0.25 to 0.90% by mass, and more preferably 0.25 to 0.80% by mass. When the content of the metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B) is within this range, the load on the extruder screw during film molding can be reduced, and a flowability effect can be exhibited. In addition, it can also be effective in preventing the buildup at the tip (lip) of the die.

[0053] <Carboxylic acid amide (C)> The polyamide resin composition preferably contains a carboxylic acid amide (C) as an optional component. Examples of carboxylic acid amides include aliphatic monocarboxylic acid amides such as lauric acid amide, palmitic acid amide, oleic acid amide, stearic acid amide, erucic acid amide, behenic acid amide, ricinoleic acid amide, and 12-hydroxystearic acid amide; N-lauryl lauric acid amide, N-palmityl palmitic acid amide, N-oleyl palmitic acid amide, N-oleyl oleic acid amide, N-oleyl stearic acid amide, N-stearyl stearic acid amide, N-stearyl oleic acid amide, N-stearyl erucic acid amide, and N-stearyl- N-substituted aliphatic monocarboxylic acid amides such as 12-hydroxystearic acid amide, N-oleyl-12-hydroxystearic acid amide, methylol stearic acid amide, methylol behenic acid amide, and 12-hydroxystearic acid monoethanolamide, methylene bisstearic acid amide, methylene bislauric acid amide, methylene bis-12-hydroxystearic acid amide, ethylene biscapric acid amide, ethylene bislauric acid amide, ethylene bisoleic acid amide, ethylene bisstearic acid amide, ethylene biserucic acid amide, and ethylene aliphatic carboxylic acid bisamides such as N,N'-dioleylsebacic acid amide, N,N'-dioleyl adipic acid amide, N,N'-distearyl adipic acid amide, and N,N'-distearylsebacic acid amide; and N,N'-dioleyl sebacic acid amide, N,N'-dioleyl sebacic acid amide, N,N'-dioleyl sebacic acid amide, N,N'-dioleyl sebacic acid amide, N,N'-distearyl sebacic acid amide. Alicyclic carboxylic acid amides such as N,N'-dicyclohexanecarbonyl-1,4-diaminocyclohexane, 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxamide, 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid diaminocyclohexane, 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid tetracyclohexylamide, N,N'-bis(3-hydroxypropyl)-1,4-cubanedicarboxamide, N,N'-(1,4-cyclohexanediyl)bis(acetamide), tris(methylcyclohexyl)propanetricarboxamide, 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid dianilide, 1,Examples of aromatic carboxylic acid amides include 4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid dibenzylamide, trimesic acid tris(t-butylamide), trimesic acid tricyclohexylamide, trimesic acid tri(2-methylcyclohexylamide), trimesic acid tri(4-cyclohexylamide), 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid dicyclohexylamide, N,N'-dibenzylcyclohexane-1,4-dicarboxamide, N,N'-distearylisophthalamide, N,N'-distearylterephthalamide, m-xylylenebisstearamide, and m-xylylenebis-12-hydroxystearamide. Among these, aliphatic carboxylic acid amides selected from the group consisting of aliphatic monocarboxylic acid amides, N-substituted aliphatic monocarboxylic acid amides, and aliphatic carboxylic acid bisamides are preferred, with aliphatic carboxylic acid bisamides being more preferred. The carboxylic acid amide (C) may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The combination of the metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B) and the carboxylic acid amide (C) improves the lubricity.

[0054] The content of the carboxylic acid amide (C) in 100% by mass of the polyamide resin composition is preferably 0.01 to 0.30% by mass, more preferably 0.01 to 0.20% by mass, and even more preferably 0.05 to 0.10% by mass. When the content of the carboxylic acid amide (C) is within this range, the screw load of the extruder during film molding can be reduced, and further, adhesion between films can be effectively suppressed without impairing the properties of the obtained film.

[0055] <Antiblocking agent (D)> The polyamide resin composition preferably contains an antiblocking agent (D) as an optional component. An antiblocking agent is a substance added to impart irregularities to the surface of a film to prevent adhesion between films. The shape of the antiblocking agent is not particularly limited as long as it can form surface protrusions on the film surface and provide slipperiness to the film, and may be in the form of powder, particles, flakes, plates, fibers, needles, cloth, mats, or any other shape, although particles and plates are preferred. Antiblocking agents (D) also include those that function as crystal nucleating agents.

[0056] The average particle size of the antiblocking agent is preferably 0.1 to 20 μm, more preferably 0.3 to 15 μm, and even more preferably 0.5 to 10 μm. It is desirable that the antiblocking agent substantially contains no particles having a particle size exceeding 20 μm. If a large amount of particles having a particle size exceeding 20 μm is contained, fish eye gel may form, impairing the film's appearance. Even if the slippage improvement effect is achieved, the film's transparency may be impaired. On the other hand, if the average particle size is less than 0.1 μm, secondary aggregation may occur, which may instead cause fish eye gel. Even if aggregation can be prevented, it may be difficult to achieve the desired unevenness on the film surface, and slippage may not be improved. Therefore, if the particle size of the antiblocking agent is not suitable for the present invention, it is desirable to perform a pulverization treatment or classification beforehand. In this specification, the average particle size is a value measured by a laser diffraction method, or in the case of a commercially available product, it may be a catalog value.

[0057] Specific examples of these antiblocking agents include silica such as gel-type silica, precipitated silica, dried silica, and colloidal silica, as well as talc, kaolin, montmorillonite, zeolite, mica, glass flakes, wollastonite, potassium titanate, magnesium sulfate, sepiolite, zonolite, aluminum borate, glass beads, calcium silicate, calcium carbonate, titanium oxide, barium sulfate, zinc oxide, and magnesium hydroxide. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Among these, mica, kaolin, zeolite, talc, and silica are preferred from the viewpoint of easy dispersibility. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0058] In particular, it is more preferable to use silica as an antiblocking agent, as the resulting film has excellent transparency and slipperiness. Silica is primarily composed of silicon dioxide, represented by SiO2·nH2O, and can be broadly classified into two types, wet-process silica and dry-process silica, depending on the manufacturing method, but either can be used. In particular, the average particle size of the silica is preferably 0.1 to 20 μm, more preferably 0.3 to 15 μm, and even more preferably 0.5 to 10 μm.

[0059] Primary silica particles have a particle size on the submicron order, but commonly used silicas include soft silica (gel-type silica, precipitated silica, dried silica) in which these primary particles aggregate to form secondary or tertiary particles, and hard silica (colloidal silica) in which the primary particle size is already 1 μm or larger, and soft silica is more preferable when film stretching is to be performed. The above average particle size of silica is the value of primary particles in the case of hard silica, and the value of aggregated particles in the case of soft silica.

[0060] It is possible to use silica that has not been surface-treated, but it is also possible to use surface-treated silica. When an antiblocking agent treated with a silane-based or titanium-based surface treatment agent is used, the dispersibility is further improved, and the transparency of the resulting film is further improved. The surface treatment method is not particularly limited, and for example, the method described in JP-A-63-251460 can be applied, in which a silane coupling agent diluted with water is added to fine silica under heating and stirring.

[0061] The antiblocking agent (D) may be used singly or in combination of two or more kinds. The content of the antiblocking agent (D) in 100% by mass of the polyamide resin composition is preferably 0.01 to 0.50% by mass, more preferably 0.05 to 0.30% by mass, and even more preferably 0.10 to 0.20% by mass, which can effectively prevent adhesion between films without impairing the properties of the resulting film.

[0062] <Additives> The polyamide resin composition may contain, as optional components depending on the purpose, etc., functionality-imparting agents such as dyes, pigments, fibrous reinforcements, particulate reinforcements, plasticizers, antioxidants, heat resistance agents, foaming agents, weather resistance agents, crystallization accelerators, crystal nucleating agents, antistatic agents, flame retardants, flame retardant assistants, colorants, etc. Among these, substances that also function as antiblocking agents (D) are included in the content of the antiblocking agent (D). The content of the optional additives is preferably 1.00% by mass or less, and more preferably 0.50% by mass or less, based on 100% by mass of the polyamide resin composition.

[0063] The polyamide resin composition may contain a thermoplastic resin other than an aliphatic polyamide resin. Examples of thermoplastic resins other than an aliphatic polyamide resin include semi-aromatic polyamide resins, aromatic polyamide resins, polyolefin resins such as low-density, medium-density, and high-density polyethylene, polypropylene, and polybutene, polyester resins such as polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, and polyester-based elastomers, vinyl aromatic resins such as polystyrene, ABS resin, and AS resin, polyether resins, polyurethane resins, acrylic resins, polyimide resins, polycarbonate resins, polyacetal, polyvinyl alcohol, and rosin-based resins. From the viewpoints of mechanical properties and moldability, the content of thermoplastic resins other than polyamide resins is preferably 2.00% by mass or less, more preferably less than 0.10% by mass, and even more preferably zero, relative to 100% by mass of the polyamide resin composition.

[0064] [Method of producing polyamide resin composition] The method for producing the polyamide resin composition is not particularly limited, and the following method can be applied, for example. The raw materials of each component are mixed using a commonly known melt kneader such as a single-screw or twin-screw extruder, a Banbury mixer, a kneader, a mixing roll, etc. The melt kneading temperature is not particularly limited as long as it is a temperature at which the polyamide resin can be melted, but is preferably 190°C to 280°C. For example, when a twin-screw extruder is used, any of the following methods may be used: a method in which all of the raw materials are blended and then melt-kneaded; a method in which some of the raw materials are blended and then melt-kneaded, and then the remaining raw materials are blended and melt-kneaded; or a method in which some of the raw materials are blended and then the remaining raw materials are mixed using a side feeder while melt-kneading; however, the method in which all of the raw materials are blended and then melt-kneaded is preferred.

[0065] When mixing, each component may be mixed individually, or multiple components may be mixed in advance and then mixed, or a master batch may be used. The order of mixing may be appropriately selected depending on the method and conditions of melt-kneading, etc.

[0066] (Method for producing a film of a polyamide resin composition) The polyamide resin composition is suitably used as a film. Films made of polyamide resin compositions can be produced by known methods. For example, there are known methods, such as a casting method in which a polyamide resin composition is produced, melt-kneaded in an extruder, extruded into a flat film using a T-die or a coat hanger die, and then cast and cooled on the surface of a casting roll to produce a film, and a tubular method in which a tubular product is melt-extruded into a cylindrical shape using a ring die and cooled with air or water to produce a film. The produced film may be in a substantially unoriented, unstretched state, or in a stretched state.

[0067] When stretching an unstretched film, conventionally known industrial methods can be used. Stretched films include uniaxially stretched films, simultaneous biaxially stretched films, and sequentially biaxially stretched films, and these are produced by known stretching methods such as roll-type uniaxial stretching, tenter-type uniaxial stretching, tenter-type sequential biaxial stretching, tenter-type simultaneous biaxial stretching, and tubular stretching. Examples include simultaneous biaxial stretching, in which an unstretched sheet produced by a casting method is stretched simultaneously in the longitudinal and transverse directions using a tenter-type simultaneous biaxial stretching machine; sequential biaxial stretching, in which an unstretched sheet melt-extruded through a T-die is stretched in the longitudinal direction using a roll-type stretching machine and then stretched in the transverse direction using a tenter-type stretching machine; and tubular stretching, in which a tubular sheet formed through a circular die is stretched simultaneously in the longitudinal and transverse directions using an inflation method using gas pressure. The stretching step may be carried out continuously following the production of the film, or the produced film may be temporarily wound up and stretched as a separate step. The stretching temperature is usually 30 to 200° C., preferably 40 to 150° C. The stretching ratio is usually 1.5 to 6 times, preferably 2 to 5 times in each direction.

[0068] When laminating, the film may be subjected to surface treatment such as corona discharge treatment, plasma treatment, flame treatment, acid treatment, etc., to improve printability, lamination, and adhesive application. Furthermore, after lamination, the film may be subjected to secondary processing steps such as printing, lamination, adhesive application, and heat sealing, as necessary, before being used for the intended purpose.

[0069] The thickness of the film is preferably 3 to 15 μm, and more preferably 5 to 15 μm. A film having a thickness within the above range exhibits excellent transparency and gloss. The present invention provides a polyamide resin composition containing a mixture of several types of aliphatic homopolyamide resins having different relative viscosities and a metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms, thereby enabling a film with high puncture resistance despite its thin thickness. If a thickness greater than this is required depending on the purpose or application, a plurality of films may be laminated.

[0070] The film is not particularly limited, but can be suitably used for food packaging, industrial material packaging, exterior films for lithium ion batteries, and the like. [Example]

[0071] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to examples and comparative examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. The physical properties of the examples and comparative examples were measured by the following methods. In each evaluation, ◯ was considered to be a pass, and × was considered to be a fail.

[0072] <Relative viscosity> This value is measured in accordance with JIS K6920, by dissolving 1 g of polyamide resin in 100 ml of 96% concentrated sulfuric acid at 25°C.

[0073] <Terminal amino group concentration> The polyamide resin was dissolved in a mixed solvent of phenol and methanol and the content was determined by neutralization titration.

The amount of work required to create a hole in the test piece by impact was evaluated using a film impact tester (manufactured by Toyo Seiki Co., Ltd.). The impact resistance was evaluated according to the following criteria. ○: 1.40J or more. ×: Less than 1.40J.

[0079] <Motor load> During film formation, the load on the extruder screw of the film forming machine was read from the current value. The motor load was evaluated according to the following criteria: ○: The motor load is 26.5A or less. ×: The motor load is over 26.5A.

[0080] <Resin pressure> During film formation, the value detected by the pressure gauge installed at the tip of the extruder of the film forming device was read. The resin pressure was evaluated according to the following criteria. ○: The resin pressure value is 8.0 MPa or less. ×: The resin pressure value is more than 8.0 MPa.

[0081] [Examples 1 to 7, Comparative Examples 1 to 7] The components listed in Table 1 were individually blended and melt-kneaded in a twin-screw extruder (ZSK32mc, manufactured by Coperion) with a cylinder diameter of 32 mm and L / D of 48 mm at a cylinder temperature of 250°C, a screw rotation of 200 rpm, and a throughput of 50 kg / hr to produce pellets of the desired molding material. These pellets were then molded into unstretched films using a GT-40-A-400 extruder manufactured by Plastics Engineering Research Institute at a molding temperature of 260°C and a chill roll temperature of 30°C. This film was then simultaneously biaxially stretched to a stretch ratio of 3.0x3.0x using an Iwamoto Seisakusho BIX703 biaxial stretching device at a stretching speed of 140 mm / sec and a stretching temperature of 100°C, followed by heat treatment with heated air at 200°C. A 15 μm-thick biaxially stretched film was then produced, and its puncture properties, film impact strength, and pinhole resistance were measured. Motor load and resin pressure were also measured during film molding. The tensile properties were measured using the above-mentioned test specimens. The units of compositions in the tables are mass %, and the entire polyamide resin composition is taken as 100 mass %.

[0082] The raw materials used in the examples are as follows: PA6(1): Polyamide 6, relative viscosity 4.08, terminal amino group concentration 33 μmol / g, manufactured by UBE Corporation PA6(2): Polyamide 6, relative viscosity 3.37, terminal amino group concentration 40 μmol / g, manufactured by UBE Corporation PA6(3): Polyamide 6, relative viscosity 2.20, terminal amino group concentration 36 μmol / g, manufactured by UBE Corporation PA6 / 66: Polyamide 6 / 66, a copolymer of polyamide 6 and polyamide 66, relative viscosity 4.05, terminal amino group concentration 33 μmol / g, manufactured by UBE Corporation PA6 / 12: Polyamide 6 / 12, a copolymer of polyamide 6 and polyamide 12, relative viscosity 4.05, terminal amino group concentration 33 μmol / g, manufactured by UBE Corporation Metal salts of fatty acids having 6 to 24 carbon atoms: (Magnesium stearate, trade name Magnesium Stearate, manufactured by NOF Corporation) Ethylene bisstearic acid amide: Product name EB-FF, manufactured by Kao Corporation Silica: average particle size: 2.0 to 3.5 μm, surface treatment: γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, manufactured by Mizusawa Industrial Chemicals Co., Ltd.

[0083] [Table 1]

[0084] From Examples 1 to 8, it can be seen that films obtained from the polyamide resin composition of the present invention have high puncture resistance, good tensile properties, good pinhole resistance, and impact resistance. The resin pressure when melting the polyamide resin composition of the present invention is appropriate, and the load on the motor is small. Comparing Examples 1 to 6 with Example 7, when the polyamide resin composition contains an aliphatic copolyamide, the stretchability of the film is better.

[0085] In Comparative Examples 1 and 4, the aliphatic homopolyamide resin (A2) was not contained and the amount of the metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B) was extremely small, so the resin pressure when the polyamide resin composition was melted was high, placing a load on the motor.In Comparative Example 5, the resin pressure when the polyamide resin composition was melted was high, placing a load on the motor, and pinholes were generated, and impact resistance was poor.

[0086] In Comparative Example 2, the amount of the aliphatic homopolyamide resin (A2) was small and the amount of the metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B) was small, so the resin pressure when the polyamide resin composition was melted was high, putting a load on the motor. In Comparative Example 3, the amount of the aliphatic homopolyamide resin (A2) was large and the amount of the metal salt of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B) was large, so the strength against puncture was poor, pinholes were generated, and the impact resistance was poor.

[0087] In Comparative Examples 6 and 7, the amount of metal salt (B) of a fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms was extremely small, so the resin pressure when the polyamide resin composition was melted was high, which put a strain on the motor, caused pinholes to occur, and the impact resistance was poor.

[0088] From the above, it is clear that the amount of each aliphatic homopolyamide resin with different relative viscosity and the amount of metal salt of fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B) affect the resin pressure when the polyamide resin composition is melted, and that the amount of metal salt of fatty acid having 6 to 24 carbon atoms (B) affects pinhole resistance and impact resistance. [Industrial Applicability]

[0089] The polyamide resin composition of the present invention is suitably used as a film for packaging foods, toiletry products, and the like, packaging industrial products, heavy-duty bags for commercial transport, and further packaging medicines and the like.
