Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a polypropylene resin composition and film that provide a film excellent in transparency and resistance to whitening due to folding without causing an ultraviolet absorber to bleed out to the surface, and a method for producing the same. [Background technology]

[0002] It is widely practiced to incorporate an ultraviolet absorber into a polyolefin-based thermoplastic resin sheet or film in order to improve the weather resistance of the sheet or film. In particular, high weather resistance is required for agricultural films and films and sheets for construction and civil engineering applications. Such films and sheets are based on polyethylene or polypropylene and contain various ultraviolet absorbers. Various developments have been made with ultraviolet absorbers to prevent deterioration of films and sheets and to obtain films and sheets with longer life and better performance.

[0003] Films and sheets deteriorate when exposed to ultraviolet rays in sunlight in the presence of oxygen in the air, resulting in a decrease in strength and elongation and breakage. To address this issue, various ultraviolet absorbers are incorporated into resins. While nickel-based compounds have traditionally been the main UV absorbers, in recent years, benzophenone-based, benzotriazole-based, and triazine-based UV absorbers have been developed and are being used in a variety of applications. Furthermore, sterically hindered amine-based light stabilizers have been developed, and due to their excellent performance, they are now the mainstream weather-resistant stabilizers.

[0004] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a resin composition in which a specific triaryltriazine-type ultraviolet absorber is added to a mixture of an ethylene-propylene random copolymer having an ethylene content of 1.0 to 6.0% by weight, a low-density polyethylene having specific physical properties, and the like, and shows that problems such as bleed-out when processed into a film or sheet are improved. Patent Document 2 discloses a propylene-based resin film in which a predetermined amount of a benzotriazole-based ultraviolet absorber and / or a benzophenone-based ultraviolet absorber and a hindered amine-based light stabilizer are added to a propylene-α-olefin copolymer having specific physical properties, and it is shown that the film has improved whitening resistance and the like. Furthermore, Patent Document 3 discloses a decorative sheet in which at least an adhesive layer and one or more resin layers mainly made of transparent polypropylene are laminated on a base sheet, and at least one of the resin layers is a layer made of a mixture of a specific homopolypropylene and a specific elastomer to which a predetermined amount of a hydroxyphenyltriazine-based ultraviolet absorber has been added. It is shown that the decorative sheet does not whiten in the folded areas and has high weather resistance. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-43596 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 11-147981 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2009-51167 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] The composition disclosed in Patent Document 1 improved the problem of bleed-out when processed into a film, but was poor in transparency and resistance to whitening upon bending, and whitening occurred particularly during bending at low temperatures. The film disclosed in Patent Document 2 improved resistance to whitening upon bending, but was poor in resistance to bleed-out of the UV absorber. The decorative sheet disclosed in Patent Document 3 improved transparency and resistance to whitening upon bending, but did not solve the problem of bleed-out of the UV absorber when used for a long period of time.

[0007] An object of the present invention is to provide a polypropylene resin composition that provides a film having excellent transparency and resistance to whitening due to bending during low-temperature processing without causing an ultraviolet absorber to bleed out to the surface, and to provide an unstretched film containing the same. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The triaryltriazine-based ultraviolet absorber disclosed in Patent Document 1 has excellent bleed-out resistance when formed into a film, and is therefore used as a weather resistance improver for polyolefin-based resins. However, films obtained from the composition of Patent Document 1 have a problem of poor resistance to whitening on bending. The inventors have conducted studies and found that adding an elastomer component to the composition of Patent Document 1 improves the whitening resistance of the film on bending, but also deteriorates the bleed-out resistance of the triaryltriazine-based ultraviolet absorber. The present inventors have conducted extensive research to achieve both resistance to bleed-out of an ultraviolet absorber and resistance to whitening on bending. As a result, they have found that by blending a specific propylene-based polymer, a specific propylene-based thermoplastic elastomer, and a specific ultraviolet absorber in specific ratios, a polypropylene resin composition can be obtained that is excellent in transparency and resistance to whitening on bending during low-temperature processing without causing the ultraviolet absorber to bleed out to the surface when processed into a film or sheet, and have completed the present invention.

[0020] In the above, compounds in which zirconium is replaced with titanium, hafnium, etc. can also be used. It is also preferable to use a mixture of a zirconium compound and a hafnium compound. Chloride can also be replaced with other halogen compounds; hydrocarbon groups such as methyl, isobutyl, and benzyl; amide groups such as dimethylamide and diethylamide; alkoxide groups such as methoxy and phenoxy; and hydride groups. Among these, metallocene compounds in which an indenyl group or an azulenyl group is bridged with a silicon or germyl group are particularly preferred.

[0021] The metallocene compound may be supported on an inorganic or organic carrier. The carrier is preferably a porous inorganic or organic compound, and specific examples include inorganic compounds such as ion-exchangeable layered silicates, zeolites, SiO2, Al2O3, silica alumina, MgO, ZrO2, TiO2, BO3, CaO, ZnO, BaO, and ThO2; organic compounds such as porous polyolefins, styrene-divinylbenzene copolymers, and olefin-acrylic acid copolymers; and mixtures thereof.

The propylene polymer (A) has a melt flow rate (MFR) of 1 to 50 g / 10 min, measured in accordance with JIS-K6921-2:1997 Appendix (230°C, 2.16 kg load). The MFR is preferably 3 to 40 g / 10 min, more preferably 5 to 30 g / 10 min. When the propylene polymer (A) has an MFR in the range of 1 to 50 g / 10 min, it has good compatibility with the propylene thermoplastic elastomer (B), and therefore good processability in film and sheet processing. Methods for controlling the MFR value are well known, and the MFR value can be easily adjusted by adjusting the temperature and pressure, which are polymerization conditions for the propylene polymer (A), or by controlling the amount of a chain transfer agent such as hydrogen added during polymerization.

[0025] (a3) The flexural modulus measured in accordance with JIS-K7171:2016 at a test speed of 2 mm / min is greater than 100 MPa and less than 1,500 MPa. The propylene polymer (A) has a flexural modulus of greater than 100 MPa and not greater than 1,500 MPa, as measured at a test speed of 2 mm / min in accordance with JIS-K7171:2016. The flexural modulus is preferably greater than 200 MPa and not greater than 1,400 MPa, more preferably greater than 300 MPa and not greater than 1,300 MPa, and particularly preferably greater than 400 MPa and not greater than 1,200 MPa. If the flexural modulus is 100 MPa or less, the component (C) will bleed out, resulting in a deterioration in transparency. If the flexural modulus is greater than 1,500 MPa, the resistance to whitening upon bending will be impaired. The method for controlling the flexural modulus is well known, and it can be easily adjusted by controlling the content ratio of ethylene and / or α-olefin having 4 to 20 carbon atoms to be copolymerized.

The propylene polymer (A) is preferably a propylene-ethylene copolymer containing 1% by weight or more and less than 5% by weight of units derived from ethylene. The content of units derived from ethylene is more preferably 1.2 to 4.0% by weight, and even more preferably 1.5 to 3.0% by weight. The content of units derived from ethylene can be calculated by the method described below.

[0028] (a5) The melting point is 110 to 155°C. The melting point of the propylene polymer (A) is preferably 110 to 155° C., more preferably 115 to 145° C., and even more preferably 120 to 140° C. By setting the melting point in the range of 110 to 155° C., it is possible to achieve a good balance between resistance to whitening upon bending and resistance to bleed-out. Methods for controlling the melting point are well known, and the melting point can be easily adjusted by controlling the content ratio of ethylene and / or α-olefin having 4 to 20 carbon atoms to be copolymerized.

[0029] In this specification, the melting point is measured as follows: Using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), a 5.0 mg sample is heated to 200°C, held at 200°C for 5 minutes, and then cooled to 40°C at a rate of 10°C / min. The sample is then heated at a rate of 10°C / min, and the top temperature of the endothermic peak is taken as the melting peak temperature (melting point / Tm).

[0030] (a6) The ratio (Mw / Mn) of the weight average molecular weight Mw to the number average molecular weight Mn is 1.5 to 3.5. The propylene polymer (A) has a ratio (Mw / Mn) of weight average molecular weight Mw to number average molecular weight Mn of 1.5 to 3.5, more preferably 1.7 to 3.3, and even more preferably 2.0 to 3.0. The Mw / Mn can be controlled by changing the type of metallocene catalyst used in the polymerization of the propylene polymer (A) or by adjusting the combination and ratio of metallocene complexes that give propylene polymers with different molecular weights using a catalyst containing a plurality of metallocene compounds.

[0031] In this specification, Mw, Mn and integrated molecular weight distribution curves are those obtained by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Details of the measurement method and measuring instrument are as described in the Examples.

[0032] The method for producing the propylene polymer (A) is not particularly limited as long as a metallocene catalyst is used, and the propylene polymer (A) can be produced by any of the conventionally known methods such as slurry polymerization, bulk polymerization, gas phase polymerization, etc. Furthermore, the propylene polymer (A) can also be produced by a multistage polymerization method as long as the above requirements (a1) to (a3) ​​are satisfied.

The MFR is preferably 2 to 20 g / 10 min, more preferably 5 to 15 g / 10 min. If the MFR of the propylene-based thermoplastic elastomer (B) is less than 1 g / 10 min, resistance to whitening due to bending deteriorates, and if it exceeds 30 g / 10 min, molding defects occur during film or sheet molding. Methods for controlling the MFR value are well known, and the MFR value can be easily adjusted by adjusting the temperature and pressure, which are polymerization conditions for the propylene-based thermoplastic elastomer (B), or by controlling the amount of a chain transfer agent such as hydrogen added during polymerization.

[0035] (b2) The flexural modulus measured in accordance with JIS-K7171:2016 at a test speed of 2 mm / min is 5 to 100 MPa. The propylene-based thermoplastic elastomer (B) has a flexural modulus of 5 to 100 MPa measured at a test speed of 2 mm / min in accordance with JIS-K7171:2016. The flexural modulus is preferably 6 to 80 MPa, more preferably 7 to 50 MPa, and particularly preferably 10 to 45 MPa. If the flexural modulus is less than 5 MPa, molding defects will occur during film or sheet molding, and if it exceeds 100 MPa, resistance to whitening on bending will deteriorate.

The proportion of compound (C) is 0.1 to 5.0% by weight, preferably 0.1 to 2.0% by weight. If the proportion of component (C) is within the above range, the weather resistance and bleed-out resistance are excellent, and it is also preferable from the standpoint of economy.

[0053] <Method of producing polypropylene resin composition> The polypropylene resin composition can be produced by mixing components (A) to (C) so that the proportions of components (A), (B), and (C) relative to the total amount of components (A) to (C) are 45.0 to 79.9% by weight, 20.0 to 50.0% by weight, and 0.1 to 5.0% by weight, respectively. When mixing, any other component may be added in addition to components (A) to (C). Components (A) and (B) can be in the form of pellets, powder, etc. Component (C) is usually in powder form. Component (C) can also be melt-kneaded with component (A) or (B) to form pellets, etc. One embodiment of the present invention is a mixture such as pellets obtained by dry-blending components (A), (B), and (C) in the above-mentioned ratio.

[0054] The mixture obtained as described above may be further melt-kneaded to produce a polypropylene resin composition. The melt-kneading is carried out using raw materials such as powder or pellet-like components, using a kneading machine such as a single-screw or twin-screw extruder, a Banbury mixer, a kneader blender, a Brabender plastograph, a small batch mixer, a continuous mixer, or a mixing roll. The kneading temperature is generally 180 to 270°C. Two or more of the above kneading machines can also be combined.

[0055] <Uses of polypropylene resin composition> The polypropylene resin composition has excellent film processability and is formulated to be less susceptible to bleed-out, and therefore has excellent long-term weather resistance, transparency, and resistance to whitening upon bending. Therefore, the polypropylene resin composition is suitable for applications in which the product is exposed to the natural environment for a long period of time or for applications in which the product is subjected to bending. The polypropylene resin composition is suitable for film applications, particularly for non-oriented films.

[0056] Another aspect of the present invention is a method for producing a non-stretched film, which includes a step of melt-extrusion molding a polypropylene resin composition. Any conventionally known method may be used as a method for processing the polypropylene resin composition into a non-stretched film. For example, a method may be used in which the polypropylene resin composition is heated, melted, and kneaded in an extruder, and then extruded into a film form through a T-die or round die. The heating temperature is preferably, for example, 180 to 270°C. [Example]
