[0007] Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter simply referred to as “the present embodiment”) will be described in detail. The following present embodiment is an example for explaining the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to only the present embodiment. In this specification, “~” is used in the sense of including the numerical values described before and after as lower limit values and upper limit values. “A to B” means A or more and B or less. Further, any combination of the upper limit value and the lower limit value of the numerical values in this specification is cited as an example of the present embodiment.

[0008] [[ID=来26]]In this specification, various physical property values and characteristic values are those at 23 ° C unless otherwise specified.

[0009] In this specification, unless otherwise specified, weight-average molecular weight and number-average molecular weight shall be values ​​measured by the following method. Weight-average molecular weight (Mw) and number-average molecular weight (Mn) were measured using high-temperature gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The polyolefin used for measurement was added to o-dichlorobenzene, an eluent heated to 140°C, and melted. The molten sample was then filtered to remove insoluble components. Using a high-temperature GPC (gel permeation chromatography) apparatus, the dissolved sample was packed into a 140°C column, and molecular weight measurement was performed.

[0010] In this specification, unless otherwise specified, the melting point (Tm) and glass transition temperature (Tg) shall be values ​​measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in accordance with ISO 11357. Specifically, a differential scanning calorimeter is used. The resin is placed in the measurement pan of the differential scanning calorimeter, heated to a temperature above the melting point at a heating rate of 10°C / min under a nitrogen atmosphere, and then rapidly cooled before measurement. The measurement conditions involve heating at a heating rate of 10°C / min, holding at 350°C for 5 minutes, and then cooling at a cooling rate of -10°C / min down to 30°C to determine the glass transition temperature (Tg) and melting point (Tm). The differential scanning calorimeter used is the "DSC-7020" manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Science Co., Ltd.

[0011] The resin composition of this embodiment comprises (A) 100 parts by mass of polyamide resin, (B) 42 to 140 parts by mass of glass fiber, (C) 2.0 to 32.0 parts by mass of alkali metal carbonate and / or alkaline earth metal carbonate, (D) 2.0 to 32.0 parts by mass of polyolefin having an acid value of 2.0 mgKOH / g or less as measured according to JIS K0070 and a weight-average molecular weight of 1000 to 20000, and (E) a melt volume rate (MVR) of 0.5 to 20.5 cm² as measured under conditions of 210°C and a load of 5 kgf in accordance with ISO 1133. 3The product is characterized by containing 2.2 to 9.2 parts by mass of a polyolefin having polar groups (excluding those corresponding to (D) polyolefins) at a concentration of 10 min. By adopting this configuration, it becomes possible to provide a resin composition that excels in both impact resistance and sliding properties. (A) The sliding properties can be improved by blending polyamide resin with (C) alkali metal carbonates and / or alkaline earth metal carbonates and (D) polyolefin having an acid value of 2.0 mgKOH / g or less as measured according to JIS K0070 and a weight-average molecular weight of 1000 to 20000. However, it was presumed that (A) polyamide resin and (D) polyolefin are not compatible and tend to have poor impact resistance. In this embodiment, in order to make (A) polyamide resin and (D) polyolefin compatible, (E) the melt volume rate (MVR) measured at 210°C and a load of 5 kgf in accordance with ISO 1133 is 0.5 to 20.5 cm 3 The process involved a 10-minute interval and the incorporation of a polyolefin containing polar groups. As a result, it is presumed that the (A) polyamide resin and the (D) olefin component were sufficiently compatible, achieving both impact resistance and sliding properties.

[0012] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below, but the description of the constituent elements described below is merely one example of an embodiment of the present invention and is not limited to these.

[0013] <(A) Polyamide resin> The resin composition of this embodiment includes a polyamide resin. The polyamide resin used in this embodiment is not of any particular type and may be an aliphatic polyamide resin or a semi-aromatic polyamide resin, but a semi-aromatic polyamide resin is more preferable.

[0014] Examples of aliphatic polyamide resins include polyamide 4, polyamide 46, polyamide 6, polyamide 66, polyamide 666, polyamide 610, polyamide 11, and polyamide 12, with polyamide 6, polyamide 66, and polyamide 666 being preferred, and polyamide 66 being more preferred. As described above, the polyamide resin used in this embodiment preferably includes a semi-aromatic polyamide resin. For example, it is more preferable that 90% by mass or more of the polyamide resin contained in the resin composition of this embodiment is a semi-aromatic polyamide resin. Here, a semi-aromatic polyamide resin is composed of diamine-derived structural units and dicarboxylic acid-derived structural units, wherein 20 to 80 mol% (preferably 30 to 80 mol%, more preferably 40 to 70 mol%) of the total structural units of the diamine-derived structural units and dicarboxylic acid-derived structural units contain aromatic rings.

[0015] Examples of semi-aromatic polyamide resins include terephthalic acid-based polyamide resins (polyamide 6T, polyamide 9T, polyamide 10T) and xylylenediamine-based polyamide resins, which will be discussed later.

[0016] The polyamide resin used in this embodiment may be recycled polyamide resin (including recovered products, material recycled products, chemical recycled products, etc.), rejected products, or scraps generated when molding molded products from resin compositions.

[0017] In this embodiment, a polyamide resin containing diamine-derived structural units and dicarboxylic acid-derived structural units, wherein 70 mol% or more of the diamine-derived structural units are derived from xylylenediamine (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "xylylenediamine-based polyamide resin") is preferred.

[0018] The diamine-derived structural units of the xylylenediamine-based polyamide resin are more preferably derived from xylylenediamine (preferably para-xylylenediamine and / or meta-xylylenediamine) in an amount of 75 mol% or more, even more preferably 80 mol% or more, even more preferably 90 mol% or more, even more preferably 95 mol% or more, and particularly most preferably 99 mol% or more.

[0019] The xylylenediamine is preferably para-xylylenediamine and / or meta-xylylenediamine. The xylylenediamine preferably contains 0 to 100 mol% meta-xylylenediamine and 100 to 0 mol% para-xylylenediamine (provided that the sum of meta-xylylenediamine and para-xylylenediamine does not exceed 100 mol%), more preferably 10 to 100 mol% meta-xylylenediamine and 90 to 0 mol% para-xylylenediamine, even more preferably 20 to 100 mol% meta-xylylenediamine and 80 to 0 mol% para-xylylenediamine, even more preferably 40 to 100 mol% meta-xylylenediamine and 60 to 0 mol% para-xylylenediamine, and even more preferably 60 to 100 mol% meta-xylylenediamine and 40 to 0 mol% para-xylylenediamine.

The upper limit of the total of the constituent units derived from para-xylylenediamine and meta-xylylenediamine is 100 mol%.

[0020] Diamines other than meta-xylylenediamine and para-xylylenediamine that can be used as raw material diamine components for xylylenediamine-based polyamide resins include aliphatic diamines such as tetramethylenediamine, pentamethylenediamine, 2-methylpentanediamine, hexamethylenediamine, heptamethylenediamine, octamethylenediamine, nonamethylenediamine, decamethylenediamine, dodecamethylenediamine, 2,2,4-trimethyl-hexamethylenediamine, and 2,4,4-trimethylhexamethylenediamine, as well as 1,3-bis( Examples include alicyclic diamines such as aminomethyl)cyclohexane, 1,4-bis(aminomethyl)cyclohexane, 1,3-diaminocyclohexane, 1,4-diaminocyclohexane, bis(4-aminocyclohexyl)methane, 2,2-bis(4-aminocyclohexyl)propane, bis(aminomethyl)decalin, and bis(aminomethyl)tricyclodecane, as well as aromatic ring-containing diamines such as bis(4-aminophenyl) ether, paraphenylenediamine, and bis(aminomethyl)naphthalene. One or more of these can be used in combination.

[0021] On the other hand, of the xylylenediamine-based polyamide resin, preferably 70 mol% or more, more preferably 75 mol% or more, even more preferably 80 mol% or more, even more preferably 90 mol% or more, even more preferably 95 mol% or more, and especially most preferably 99 mol% or more, are derived from α,ω-linear aliphatic dicarboxylic acids having 4 to 20 carbon atoms (preferably adipic acid).

[0022] Preferred α,ω-linear aliphatic dicarboxylic acids having 4 to 20 carbon atoms for use as raw material dicarboxylic acid components in xylylenediamine-based polyamide resins include, for example, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, undecanediic acid, and 1,12-dodecanediic acid. One or more of these can be used in combination, but among these, at least one of adipic acid, sebacic acid, and 1,12-dodecanediic acid is preferred, with adipic acid and / or sebacic acid being more preferred, and adipic acid being even more preferred, since the melting point of the polyamide resin is within a range suitable for molding.

[0023] Examples of dicarboxylic acid components other than those mentioned above include phthalate compounds such as isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, and orthophthalic acid, and isomers of naphthalenedicarboxylic acids such as 1,2-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,3-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,5-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,7-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,8-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 2,3-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, and 2,7-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid. One or more of these can be used in combination.

[0024] It should be noted that while xylylenediamine-based polyamide resins are mainly composed of diamine-derived and dicarboxylic acid-derived structural units, they do not completely exclude other structural units, and may also contain structural units derived from lactams such as ε-caprolactam and laurolactam, and aliphatic aminocarboxylic acids such as aminocaproic acid and aminoundecanoic acid. Here, "main component" refers to the structural unit in the xylylenediamine-based polyamide resin in which the total number of diamine-derived and dicarboxylic acid-derived structural units is the largest among all structural units. In this embodiment, it is preferable that the total of diamine-derived and dicarboxylic acid-derived structural units in the xylylenediamine-based polyamide resin accounts for 90% by mass or more of the total structural units, more preferably 95% by mass or more, even more preferably 97% by mass or more, and even more preferably 99% by mass or more.

[0025] It is also preferable to use polyamide resins manufactured using biomass raw materials (biomass polyamide resins) for xylylenediamine-based polyamide resins. By using biomass polyamide resins, it is possible to reduce the environmental impact. In xylylenediamine-based polyamide resins, bio-adipic acid can be used as a biomass raw material. Alternatively, adipic acid certified under Mass Balance Certification (ISCC PLUS) can be used. Mass Balance Certification quantifies the extent to which renewable and bio-based raw materials are used in each factory or production facility, and how much of that is used in the production and shipment of products, guaranteeing quality along with the certification itself.

[0029] In the resin composition of this embodiment, the content of (A) polyamide resin is preferably 30% by mass or more, more preferably 32% by mass or more, and may be 35% by mass or more, or 38% by mass or more, depending on the application. Setting it above the lower limit allows the blending ratio of reinforcing fibers to be suppressed to some extent, and tends to make it easier to adjust the fluidity balance of the resin composition. Furthermore, in the resin composition of this embodiment, the content of polyamide resin is preferably 60% by mass or less, more preferably 50% by mass or less, and even more preferably 45% by mass or less. Setting it below the upper limit allows the blending ratio of reinforcing fibers to be increased, and tends to make it easier to obtain high physical properties in terms of rigidity and strength. The resin composition of this embodiment may contain only one type of polyamide resin (A), or it may contain two or more types. When it contains two or more types, it is preferable that the total amount is within the above range.

[0030] <(B) Glass fiber> The resin composition of this embodiment contains (B) glass fiber in a proportion of 42 to 140 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of (A) polyamide resin. By blending (B) glass fiber, a molded product excellent in mechanical strength can be obtained. (B) Glass fiber refers to those having a circular or polygonal cross-sectional shape cut at a right angle to the length direction and presenting a fibrous appearance. (B) Glass fiber is composed of a glass composition such as A glass, C glass, E glass, S glass, R glass, M glass, D glass, etc. In particular, E glass (non-alkali glass) is preferable. It is more preferable to use (B) glass fiber that has been surface-treated with a surface treatment agent such as a coupling agent. Glass fiber adhered with a surface treatment agent is preferable because it is excellent in durability, heat and humidity resistance, hydrolysis resistance, and heat shock resistance.

[0031] (B) The glass fiber used in the resin composition of this embodiment may be single fiber or a plurality of single fibers twisted together. (B) The form of glass fiber may be any of "glass roving" obtained by continuously winding single fiber or a plurality of single fibers twisted together, "chopped strand" cut to a length of 1 to 10 mm, "milled fiber" pulverized to a length of 10 to 500 μm, etc. Such glass fiber is commercially available under the trade names of "Glassron Chopped Strand" and "Glassron Milled Fiber" from Asahi Fiber Glass Co., Ltd. and is easily available. (B) Glass fibers with different forms can also be used in combination. In this embodiment, chopped strand with a cut length of 1 to 10 mm (preferably a cut length of 1 to 5 mm) is preferable.

[0032] (B) The glass fiber used in this embodiment preferably has an average cross-sectional area of 40 μm 2 or more, more preferably 70 μm 2 or more, still more preferably 100 μm 2 or more, even more preferably 110 μm 2 or more, and also preferably 400 μm 2Preferably, the following, 350 μm 2 The following is more preferable: 300 μm 2 It is even more preferable that the following is true: 250 μm 2 It is even more preferable that the following is true: 200 μm 2 It is even more preferable that the following is true, and furthermore, 180 μm 2 Below, 150μm 2 It may also be less than or equal to the lower limit. By setting it to be above the lower limit, the number of glass fibers per unit amount can be reduced, the number of fracture initiations can be reduced, and impact resistance tends to improve further. Also, by setting it to be below the upper limit, the number of glass fibers per unit amount can be reduced, the number of times the mating material in sliding parts is abraded can be reduced, and sliding performance tends to improve further. If the resin composition of this embodiment contains two or more types of glass fibers with different cross-sectional areas, the average cross-sectional area of ​​the glass fibers shall be the sum (weighted average) of the values ​​obtained by multiplying the cross-sectional area of ​​each glass fiber by the mass fraction of each glass fiber. The average cross-sectional area of ​​glass fibers is calculated by selecting 100 fibers using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), measuring the diameter of each fiber, and then calculating the average fiber diameter. The cross-sectional area is then calculated from the average fiber diameter.

[0033] Furthermore, the (B) glass fiber used in this embodiment may have a circular or flattened cross-section, but a flattened cross-section is preferred. Using flattened glass fiber tends to improve sliding properties.

[0034] The content of (B) glass fibers in the resin composition used in this embodiment is 42 parts by mass or more, more preferably 50 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 80 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 100 parts by mass or more, and even more preferably 110 parts by mass or more, per 100 parts by mass of (A) polyamide resin.

The resin composition of this embodiment may contain only one type of (B) glass fiber, or it may contain two or more types. If it contains two or more types, the total amount will be within the above range. Note that the content of (B) glass fiber in this embodiment includes the amount of sizing agent and surface treatment agent.

[0035] <(C) Alkali metal carbonates and / or alkaline earth metal carbonates> The resin composition of this embodiment contains (C) alkali metal carbonate and / or alkaline earth metal carbonate in an amount of 2.0 to 32.0 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of (A) polyamide resin. By including (C) alkali metal carbonate and / or alkaline earth metal carbonate, a molded product with excellent sliding properties can be obtained. (C) Examples of alkali metal carbonates and / or alkaline earth metal carbonates include sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate, and magnesium carbonate, with calcium carbonate being preferred.

[0036] In this embodiment, the particle size (secondary mean particle size) of (C) alkali metal carbonate and / or alkaline earth metal carbonate is preferably 5 μm or less, and more preferably 3 μm or less. By keeping it below the upper limit, it tends to be possible to more effectively suppress the initiation of fracture. Furthermore, the lower limit of the particle size (secondary mean particle size) of (C) alkali metal carbonate and / or alkaline earth metal carbonate is preferably 0.1 μm or more, more preferably 0.5 μm or more, and even more preferably 1 μm or more.

The inclusion of (D) polyolefin improves the sliding properties of the resulting molded article.

(D) If the mixture contains two or more types of polyolefins, the weight-average molecular weight of the polyolefins shall be the weight-average molecular weight of the mixture.

[0039] The (D) polyolefin has an acid value of 2.0 mgKOH / g or less, as measured according to JIS K0070, but it is preferable that the acid value is less than 1.0 mgKOH / g. The lower limit of the acid value is 0 mgKOH / g. (D) If the mixture contains two or more types of polyolefins, the acid value of the polyolefins shall be the acid value of the mixture.

[0040] The resin composition of this embodiment may contain only one type of (D) polyolefin, or it may contain two or more types. When it contains two or more types, it is preferable that the weight-average molecular weight of the mixture is within the above range.

Setting the content below the upper limit tends to further improve the sliding properties. The resin composition of this embodiment may contain only one type of (E) polyolefin, or it may contain two or more types. When it contains two or more types, it is preferable that the total amount is within the above range.

[0046] <Nuclear agent> The resin composition of this embodiment may contain a nucleating agent. Including a nucleating agent can improve the appearance of the resulting molded article.

[0055] <Method for producing resin compositions> In this embodiment, the method for producing the resin composition is not particularly specified, and a wide range of known methods for producing thermoplastic resin compositions can be used. Specifically, the resin composition can be produced by pre-mixing each component using various mixers such as a tumbler or a Henschel mixer, and then melt-kneading them using a Banbury mixer, rolls, brabender, single-screw extruder, twin-screw extruder, kneader, etc. In this embodiment, melt-kneading using a twin-screw extruder is preferred.

[0056] Furthermore, for example, a resin composition can be manufactured by supplying the components to an extruder using a feeder, either without pre-mixing them or by pre-mixing only some of the components, and then melt-kneading them together. Furthermore, for example, a composition obtained by pre-mixing some of the components and supplying it to an extruder for melt-kneading can be used as a masterbatch, and pellets can be produced by mixing this masterbatch with the remaining components again and melt-kneading it.

[0057] In this embodiment, in particular, (A) 100 parts by mass of polyamide resin, (B) 42 to 140 parts by mass of glass fiber, (C) 2.0 to 32.0 parts by mass of alkali metal carbonate and / or alkaline earth metal carbonate, (D) 2.0 to 32.0 parts by mass of polyolefin having an acid value of 2.0 mgKOH / g or less as measured according to JIS K0070 and a weight-average molecular weight of 1000 to 20000, and (E) a melt volume rate (MVR) of 5 to 20.5 cm² as measured in accordance with ISO 1133 at 210°C and a load of 5 kgf. 3 One method for producing a resin composition is to melt and knead 2.2 to 9.2 parts by mass of a polyolefin having polar groups (excluding those corresponding to (D) polyolefin) at a cylinder temperature of the melting point of the (A) polyamide resin + 40°C or higher for 10 minutes. The preferred ranges for each of the above components are the same as those described in the section on resin compositions.

Setting the temperature above the lower limit tends to improve the fluidity of (A) polyamide resin and (D) olefin, and to further improve their compatibility. Setting the temperature below the upper limit tends to effectively suppress vent-up during manufacturing.

[0059] <Physical properties of resin compositions> The resin composition of this embodiment was molded into an ISO tensile test specimen (4 mm thick), and tested according to ISO 179 standards at a temperature of 23°C, yielding a Charpy impact strength (unnotched Charpy test) of 35 kJ / m². 2 Preferably, it is 39 kJ / m³ or higher. 2 Preferably, it is 42 kJ / m³ 2It is even more preferable that the above is true.

In particular, the resin composition of this embodiment is suitable for molded products obtained by injection molding, injection compression molding, and extrusion molding, and is especially suitable for molded products obtained by injection molding (injection molded products). However, it goes without saying that the resin composition of this embodiment is not limited to molded products obtained by these methods.

[0067] <Synthesis Example 1: Synthesis of PAMP6 (M / P molar ratio = 7:3)> In a reaction vessel equipped with a stirrer, condenser, condenser, thermometer, dropping device, nitrogen inlet tube, and strand die, 7220 g (49.4 mol) of adipic acid and 11.66 g of sodium acetate / sodium hypophosphite monohydrate (molar ratio = 1 / 1.5) were charged. After thorough nitrogen purging, the mixture was heated and melted to 170°C while stirring the system under a small stream of nitrogen. 6647 g (48.8 mol%, manufactured by Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Co., Ltd.) of mixed xylylenediamine with a molar ratio of metaxylylenediamine to paraxylylenediamine of 7 / 3 was added dropwise while stirring, and the internal temperature was continuously raised to 260°C over 2.5 hours while removing the condensation water produced from the system. After the dropwise addition was complete, the internal temperature was increased further, and when it reached 270°C, the pressure inside the reaction vessel was reduced, and the internal temperature was further increased to 280°C to continue the melt polycondensation reaction for 20 minutes. After that, the system was pressurized with nitrogen, and the obtained polymer was removed from the strand die and pelletized to obtain polyamide resin (PAMP6). The melting point was measured to be 256°C.

[0068] <Manufacturing of carbon black masterbatch> PAMP6 and carbon black components were blended in a tumbler, then fed into a twin-screw extruder (Shibaura Machine Co., Ltd., TEM26SS) at the base, melted, and pellets were produced.

The mixture was then fed into a twin-screw extruder (Shibaura Machine Co., Ltd., TEM26SS) from the base, melted, and then glass fibers and carbon fibers were side-fed from one location to produce pellets. The temperature settings (cylinder temperature) of the twin-screw extruder are shown in Table 2 or Table 3. The values ​​of each component in Tables 2 and 3 are shown in mass percent.

[0070] <Tensile properties> The pellets obtained by the above manufacturing method were dried at 120°C for 4 hours, and then ISO tensile test specimens of type A1 (4 mm thick) were injection molded using an injection molding machine (NEX140III, manufactured by Nissei Plastic Industrial Co., Ltd.) under the conditions of cylinder temperature, mold temperature of 130°C, and molding cycle of 50 seconds as shown in Table 2 or Table 3. For the obtained ISO tensile test specimens (4 mm thick), the tensile fracture stress (in MPa) and tensile modulus (GPa) were measured in accordance with ISO 527-1 and 2, under conditions of 23°C and 50% humidity, at a gauge length of 50 mm.

[0071] <Bending properties> After drying the pellets obtained by the above manufacturing method at 120°C for 4 hours, ISO tensile test specimens (4 mm thick) were injection molded using an injection molding machine (NEX-140III, manufactured by Nissei Plastic Industrial Co., Ltd.) under the conditions of cylinder temperature, mold temperature of 130°C, and molding cycle of 50 seconds as shown in Table 2 or Table 3. In accordance with ISO 178, the bending strength (in MPa) and bending modulus (in GPa) were measured at a temperature of 23°C.

[0072] <Charpy impact strength> After drying the pellets obtained by the above manufacturing method at 120°C for 4 hours, ISO tensile test specimens (4 mm thick) were injection molded using an injection molding machine (NEX-140III, manufactured by Nissei Plastic Industrial Co., Ltd.) under the conditions of cylinder temperature, mold temperature of 130°C, and molding cycle of 50 seconds as shown in Table 2 or Table 3. In accordance with the ISO 179 standard, Charpy impact strength (notched Charpy and unnotched Charpy) was measured at a temperature of 23°C. The unit is kJ / m 2 As shown.

[0073] <Temperature of deflection under load (DTUL)> Using the ISO multipurpose test specimens (4 mm thick) obtained above, they were processed into shapes based on ISO 75-1 and ISO 75-2, and the temperature of deflection under load (unit: °C) was measured at a load of 1.80 MPa, according to ISO 75-1 and ISO 75-2.

[0074] <Coefficient of Dynamic Friction> After drying the resin pellets obtained by the above manufacturing method at 120°C for 4 hours, a contact area of ​​2 cm² was used with NS-40 manufactured by Nissei Plastic Industrial Co., Ltd. 2A hollow cylindrical test specimen (molded body) was injection molded. The cylinder temperature was 280°C and the mold temperature was 130°C. To prevent excessive fracture of the glass fibers due to high shear, the maximum injection pressure during injection molding was limited to 80% of the injection equipment capacity. Friction and wear tests were conducted between hollow cylindrical test specimens under a linear velocity of 100 mm / second, with an initial pressure of 5 kgf, and the pressure was increased by 5 kgf every minute.

[0075] <Sliding properties (specific friction)> After drying the resin pellets obtained by the above manufacturing method at 120°C for 4 hours, a contact area of ​​2 cm² was used with NS-40 manufactured by Nissei Plastic Industrial Co., Ltd. 2 A hollow cylindrical test specimen (molded body) was injection molded.

To prevent excessive fracture of the glass fibers due to high shear, the maximum injection pressure during injection molding was limited to 80% of the injection equipment capacity. In accordance with JIS K7218(A) method, friction and wear tests were conducted on hollow cylindrical test specimens at a temperature of 23°C and 50% humidity for 20 hours under a linear speed of 100 mm / sec and a pressurized load of 10 kgf. The specific wear amount for the same material was measured for both the fixed and movable test specimens. The specific wear amount was calculated by dividing the volume of the worn-down test specimen by the total distance traveled and the pressurized load. The unit of volume is ×10⁻⁶. -2 mm 3 It is / (kgf·km).

[0076] [Table 2] [Table 3]

[0077] As is clear from the above results, the molded articles formed from the resin composition of this embodiment exhibited excellent impact resistance and sliding properties. Furthermore, by melt-kneading the resin composition of this embodiment at a cylinder temperature of 40°C or higher above the melting point of the polyamide resin, a molded product with even greater wear resistance was obtained (comparison of Example 4 and Example 6). Furthermore, the cross-sectional area of ​​the glass fiber is 40 μm². 2 As a result of the above, a molded product with superior wear resistance and impact resistance was obtained (comparison of Example 7 with other examples).

[0078] Although the present invention has been described in detail using specific embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications are possible without departing from the intent and scope of the invention.
