Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a polycarbonate resin composition and a molded article made therefrom that has excellent flow stability, thermal stability, and molded article appearance. [Background technology]

[0002] Polycarbonate / polyester alloys, which are alloys of polycarbonate resin and polyester resin, are widely used in the automotive sector due to their excellent mechanical properties and chemical resistance. In recent years, there has been a trend towards integrating parts in automotive exterior components to reduce assembly man-hours, and the development of large components has become active. Therefore, in order to obtain a good molded appearance even for large components, there is a growing demand for resins with higher thermal stability than conventional resins, and thus flow stability during continuous injection molding is required. On the other hand, polymer alloys consisting of polycarbonate resin and polyester resin have a problem in that the fluidity of the resin composition is unstable due to excessive heating during melt mixing in an extruder or during retention in an injection molding machine, which causes excessive transesterification reactions. In the past, methods to improve thermal stability have been disclosed, such as using phosphate compounds and phosphite compounds or phosphonite compounds in combination as thermal stabilizers (see, for example, Patent Document 1) and adding organophosphate ester compounds (see, for example, Patent Document 2). However, these do not disclose polycarbonate resin compositions that are superior in flow stability, thermal stability, and molded product appearance, and they have the problem of poor flow stability during continuous injection molding.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0007] Hereinafter, the details of the present invention will be further described.

[0008] <Component A: Polycarbonate resin> The polycarbonate resin used in the present invention is obtained by reacting a divalent phenol with a carbonate precursor. Examples of the reaction method include, for example, interfacial polycondensation method, melt transesterification method, solid-phase transesterification method of carbonate prepolymer, and ring-opening polymerization method of cyclic carbonate compound, etc.

[0011] Carbonyl halides, carbonate esters, or haloformates can be used as carbonate precursors, specifically including phosgene, diphenyl carbonate, or dihaloformates of divalent phenols.

[0012] When producing polycarbonate resin by reacting the above-mentioned divalent phenol with a carbonate precursor by interfacial polycondensation or molten transesterification, catalysts, end-terminating agents, antioxidants for the divalent phenol, etc., may be used as needed. The polycarbonate resin may be a branched polycarbonate resin copolymerized with a trifunctional or polyfunctional aromatic compound, or a polyester carbonate resin copolymerized with an aromatic or aliphatic bifunctional carboxylic acid, or a mixture of two or more of the obtained polycarbonate resins.

[0013] Reaction methods such as interfacial polymerization, melt transesterification, solid-phase transesterification of carbonate prepolymers, and ring-opening polymerization of cyclic carbonate compounds, which are methods for producing the polycarbonate resin of the present invention, are well-known methods in various documents and patent gazettes. Although the viscosity-average molecular weight of the polycarbonate resin is not specified, if it is less than 1×10 4 the high-temperature properties and the like deteriorate, and if it exceeds 4×10 4 the molding processability deteriorates. Therefore, it is preferably 1×10 4 ~4×10 4 , more preferably 1.4×10 4 ~3×10 4 , and even more preferably 1.6×10 4 ~2.5×10 4 .

[0014] Two or more polycarbonate resins may be mixed. In this case, it is of course possible to mix a polycarbonate resin whose viscosity-average molecular weight is outside the above range.

[0015] The viscosity-average molecular weight referred to in the present invention is obtained by inserting the specific viscosity (η SP ) of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.7 g of polycarbonate resin in 100 ml of methylene chloride at 20°C into the following formula. η SP / c = [η] + 0.45×[η] 2 c (where [η] is the intrinsic viscosity) [η] = 1.23×10 -4 M 0.83 c = 0.7

[0016] Branched polycarbonate resin can also be used as the polycarbonate resin of the present invention.

[0017] In branched polycarbonate resins, the structural units derived from polyfunctional aromatic compounds are preferably 0.01 to 1 mol%, more preferably 0.05 to 0.9 mol%, and even more preferably 0.05 to 0.8 mol%, of the total 100 mol% of structural units derived from divalent phenols and those derived from such polyfunctional aromatic compounds. Furthermore, especially in the case of melt transesterification, branched structural units may be produced as a side reaction, but the amount of such branched structural units is also preferably 0.001 to 1 mol%, more preferably 0.005 to 0.9 mol%, and even more preferably 0.01 to 0.8 mol%, of the total 100 mol% of structural units derived from divalent phenols. 1 It can be calculated by 1H-NMR measurement.

[0018] Among aliphatic difunctional carboxylic acids, α,ω-dicarboxylic acids are preferred. Examples of preferred aliphatic difunctional carboxylic acids include linear saturated aliphatic dicarboxylic acids such as sebacic acid (decanediic acid), dodecanediic acid, tetradecanediic acid, octadecanediic acid, and eicosanedioic acid, as well as alicyclic dicarboxylic acids such as cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid. As for difunctional alcohols, alicyclic diols are more preferred, with examples including cyclohexanedimethanol, cyclohexanediol, and tricyclodecanedimethanol.

[0019] The reaction methods used in the present invention for producing polycarbonate resin, such as interfacial polymerization, molten transesterification, solid-phase transesterification of carbonate prepolymers, and ring-opening polymerization of cyclic carbonate compounds, are well-known methods described in various literatures and patent publications.

Among these, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, which has excellent strength and good durability, is the most suitable. These may be used individually or in combination of two or more.

[0029] As the hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane represented by the above general formula (3), the following compounds are preferably used, for example.

[0030] [ka]

[0031] Hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxanes (II) can be easily produced by hydrosiliculation reaction of olefinic unsaturated carbon-carbon bonded phenols, preferably vinylphenol, 2-allylphenol, isopropenylphenol, and 2-methoxy-4-allylphenol, to the ends of a polysiloxane chain having a predetermined degree of polymerization. Among these, (2-allylphenol)-terminated polydiorganosiloxanes and (2-methoxy-4-allylphenol)-terminated polydiorganosiloxanes are preferred, and (2-allylphenol)-terminated polydimethylsiloxanes and (2-methoxy-4-allylphenol)-terminated polydimethylsiloxanes are particularly preferred. Hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxanes (II) preferably have a molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) of 3 or less. Furthermore, in order to exhibit excellent low outgassing and low-temperature impact resistance during high-temperature molding, such a molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) is more preferably 2.5 or less, and even more preferably 2 or less. If the upper limit of this suitable range is exceeded, the amount of outgassing during high-temperature molding increases, and the low-temperature impact resistance may be poor.

[0032] Furthermore, to achieve high impact resistance, the degree of diorganosiloxane polymerization (p+q) of the hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane(II) is appropriately set to 10-300. This degree of diorganosiloxane polymerization (p+q) is preferably 10-200, more preferably 12-150, and even more preferably 14-100. Below the lower limit of this preferred range, the impact resistance characteristic of polycarbonate-polydiorganosiloxane copolymers is not effectively exhibited, and above the upper limit of this preferred range, appearance defects appear.

[0033] The polydiorganosiloxane content in the polycarbonate-polydiorganosiloxane copolymer resin used in component A is preferably 0.1 to 50% by weight. More preferably, the polydiorganosiloxane content is 0.5 to 30% by weight, and even more preferably 1 to 20% by weight. Above the lower limit of this preferred range, excellent impact resistance and flame retardancy are obtained, and below the upper limit of this preferred range, a stable appearance less affected by molding conditions is easily obtained. The degree of polydiorganosiloxane polymerization and polydiorganosiloxane content are: 1 It can be calculated by 1H-NMR measurement.

[0034] In the present invention, only one hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane(II) may be used, or two or more may be used. Furthermore, to the extent that it does not interfere with the present invention, other comonomers other than the divalent phenol (I) and hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane (II) may be used in combination in an amount of 10% by weight or less relative to the total weight of the copolymer.

[0035] In this invention, a mixed solution containing an oligomer having terminal chloroformate groups is prepared in advance by the reaction of divalent phenol(I) with a carbonate ester-forming compound in a mixture of a water-insoluble organic solvent and an alkaline aqueous solution. When generating the divalent phenol(I) oligomer, the entire amount of divalent phenol(I) used in the method of this invention may be converted into an oligomer at once, or a portion of it may be added as a reaction raw material to the subsequent interfacial polycondensation reaction as a post-added monomer. The post-added monomer is added to expedite the subsequent polycondensation reaction, and does not need to be added if unnecessary. The method of this oligomer formation reaction is not particularly limited, but it is generally preferable to carry it out in a solvent in the presence of an acid binder.

[0036] The proportion of ester-forming compounds used can be adjusted as appropriate, taking into account the stoichiometric ratio (equivalent) of the reaction. Furthermore, when using gaseous ester-forming compounds such as phosgene, a suitable method is to bubble them into the reaction system.

[0037] Examples of acid binders include alkali metal hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, alkali metal carbonates such as sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate, organic bases such as pyridine, or mixtures thereof. The proportion of acid binder used should be determined appropriately, taking into account the stoichiometric ratio (equivalents) of the reaction, as described above. Specifically, it is preferable to use 2 equivalents or a slightly excess amount of acid binder relative to the number of moles of divalent phenol(I) used to form the oligomer (usually 1 mole corresponds to 2 equivalents).

[0038] As the aforementioned solvent, various reaction-inert solvents, such as those used in the production of known polycarbonates, can be used individually or as a mixed solvent. Typical examples include hydrocarbon solvents such as xylene, and halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as methylene chloride and chlorobenzene. Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as methylene chloride are particularly preferred.

[0039] There are no particular restrictions on the reaction pressure for oligomer formation; it can be atmospheric pressure, pressurized pressure, or reduced pressure, but it is usually advantageous to carry out the reaction under atmospheric pressure. The reaction temperature is selected from the range of -20 to 50°C, and since polymerization is often exothermic, water cooling or ice cooling is desirable. The reaction time depends on other conditions and cannot be specified in general, but it is usually carried out in 0.2 to 10 hours. The pH range for the oligomer formation reaction is the same as for known interfacial reaction conditions, and the pH is always adjusted to 10 or higher.

[0040] In this invention, a mixed solution containing an oligomer of divalent phenol (I) having terminal chloroformate groups is obtained, and while stirring the mixed solution, a hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane (II) represented by general formula (3), which has been highly purified to a molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) of 3 or less, is added to the divalent phenol (I), and the hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane (II) and the oligomer are subjected to interfacial polycondensation to obtain a polycarbonate-polydiorganosiloxane copolymer.

X is a divalent aliphatic group with 2 to 8 carbon atoms.

[0043] When carrying out an interfacial polycondensation reaction, an acid binder may be added as appropriate, taking into consideration the stoichiometric ratio (equivalent) of the reaction. Examples of acid binders include alkali metal hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, alkali metal carbonates such as sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate, organic bases such as pyridine, or mixtures thereof. Specifically, when adding a portion of the hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane(II) or divalent phenol(I) as described above as a post-added monomer to this reaction step, it is preferable to use 2 equivalents or an excess amount of alkali relative to the total number of moles of the post-added divalent phenol(I) and hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane(II) (usually 1 mole corresponds to 2 equivalents).

[0044] The polycondensation reaction between the divalent phenol (I) oligomer and the hydroxyaryl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane (II) is carried out by vigorously stirring the above mixture.

[0045] In such polymerization reactions, end-terminating agents or molecular weight modifiers are commonly used. Examples of end-terminating agents include compounds having a monovalent phenolic hydroxyl group, such as ordinary phenols, p-tert-butylphenol, p-cumylphenol, and tribromophenol, as well as long-chain alkylphenols, aliphatic carboxylic acid chlorides, aliphatic carboxylic acids, alkyl hydroxybenzoates, hydroxyphenylalkylates, and alkyl etherphenols. The amount used is preferably in the range of 100 to 0.5 moles, more preferably 50 to 2 moles, per 100 moles of all divalent phenolic compounds used, and it is naturally possible to use two or more compounds in combination.

[0046] To accelerate the polycondensation reaction, a catalyst such as a tertiary amine like triethylamine or a quaternary ammonium salt may be added. The reaction time for such polymerization is preferably 30 minutes or more, and more preferably 50 minutes or more. Optionally, a small amount of antioxidant such as sodium sulfite or hydrosulfide may be added.

[0047] The branching agent can be used in combination with the above-mentioned divalent phenolic compound to form a branched polycarbonate-polydiorganosiloxane. Examples of the trifunctional or higher polyfunctional aromatic compounds used in such a branched polycarbonate-polydiorganosiloxane copolymer resin include phloroglucinol, phloroglucide, or 4,6-dimethyl-2,4,6-tris(4-hydroxydiphenyl)heptene-2, 2,4,6-trimethyl-2,4,6-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)heptane, 1,3,5-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)benzene, 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane, 1,1,1-tris(3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane, 2,6-bis(2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzyl)-4-methylphenol, 4-{4-[1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]benzene}-α,α-dimethylbenzylphenol and other tris-phenols, tetra(4-hydroxyphenyl)methane, bis(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ketone, 1,4-bis(4,4-dihydroxytriphenylmethyl)benzene, or trimellitic acid, pyromellitic acid, benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid and their acid chlorides, etc. Among them, 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane and 1,1,1-tris(3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane are preferred, and particularly 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane is preferred. The proportion of the polyfunctional compound in the branched polycarbonate-polydiorganosiloxane copolymer resin is preferably 0.001 to 1 mol%, more preferably 0.005 to 0.9 mol%, still more preferably 0.01 to 0.8 mol%, and particularly preferably 0.05 to 0.4 mol% in the total amount of the polycarbonate-polydiorganosiloxane copolymer resin.
