Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a set of compositions containing compounds having polyoxyalkylene chains. [Background technology]
[0002] In electronic components and other devices that generate heat during use, thermal interface materials (TIMs), which are thermally conductive materials (sometimes called heat dissipation materials), are used to efficiently dissipate heat. TIMs, for example, contain polymers and thermally conductive fillers.
[0003] The polymers described above are selected according to their suitability for the application (target) of the TIM. Specifically, for example, compositions containing polymers may require low viscosity and excellent handling properties, while the cured product of the composition set may require low elasticity. In response to this, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a curable silicone composition that has good handling properties and forms a cured product with a low modulus of elasticity. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]
[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2008-081676 [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]
[0005] According to our research, in multi-component (e.g., two-component) composition sets, when handling is improved using low-viscosity polymers, it is sometimes required to increase the elongation at break of the cured product of the composition set. However, achieving both simultaneously is not always easy.
[0006] Therefore, the present invention aims to improve the handling of the composition set while improving the elongation at break of the cured product of the composition set. [Means for Solving the Problems]
[0007] As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have found that a composition set containing a specific compound having a polyoxyalkylene chain and two (meth)acryloyl groups can form a cured product having a high elongation at break while having a low viscosity and excellent handleability.

[2] The composition set according to [1], wherein the polyoxyalkylene chain contains an oxyethylene group. [3] The composition set according to [1], wherein the polyoxyalkylene chain contains an oxypropylene group.

The antioxidant may be, for example, a phenolic antioxidant, a benzophenone antioxidant, a benzoate antioxidant, a hindered amine antioxidant, a benzotriazole antioxidant, etc., and is preferably a phenolic antioxidant.
[0066] Phenolic antioxidants, for example, have a hindered phenol structure (hindered phenol ring). The hindered phenol structure (hindered phenol ring) may be, for example, a structure in which a t-butyl group is bonded to one or both of the ortho positions relative to the hydroxyl group in the phenol ring. Phenolic antioxidants have one or more such hindered phenol rings, preferably two or more, more preferably three or more, and even more preferably four or more.

[0068] The composition may further contain other additives as needed. Examples of other additives include plasticizers (e.g., tackifiers), fillers (e.g., thermally conductive fillers), surface treatment agents (e.g., silane coupling agents), dispersants, curing accelerators, colorants, nucleating agents, heat stabilizers, foaming agents, flame retardants, vibration dampers, dehydrating agents, and flame retardant aids (e.g., metal oxides). The content of other additives may be 0.1% by mass or more and 30% by mass or less, based on the total amount of the first and second liquids.
[0069] In the composition set, it is preferable that each component other than the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent is included in both the first and second liquids. That is, in one embodiment, it is preferable that the first liquid contains an oxidizing agent and a compound represented by formula (1) (and other components used as needed), and the second liquid contains a reducing agent and a compound represented by formula (1) (and other components used as needed).
[0070] The first and second liquids in the above-described composition set have low viscosity, yet their cured products exhibit low elasticity, high elongation, and high strength, making them suitable for applications such as thermal conductive materials (also called heat dissipation materials), adhesives, structural adhesives, battery binders, stress relievers, sealants, coatings, and paints. Similarly, the cured products of the above-described composition set exhibit low elasticity, high elongation, and high strength, making them suitable for each of the above-mentioned applications. [Examples]
[0071] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
[0072] In the examples, the following components were used as common components for the first and second solutions. (A-1) A mixture of compounds represented by formula (1-7) synthesized by the procedure shown below (weight-average molecular weight: 15000, where m1+m2 in formula (1-7) is approximately 252±5 and n1+n2 is approximately 63±5 integers (where m1, m2, n1, and n2 are each independently integers of 2 or more, m1+n1≧100, m2+n2≧100), viscosity at 25℃: 50 Pa·s) [ka] In equations (1-7), -r- is a sign representing random copolymerization. (A-2) Compounds represented by formula (1-8) synthesized by the procedure shown below (weight-average molecular weight: 16000, a mixture in which m in formula (1-8) is approximately 246±5 and n is approximately an integer of 105±5, viscosity at 25℃: 55 Pa·s) [ka] In equations (1-8), -r- is a sign representing random copolymerization.
[0073] (B-1)2-Ethylhexylacrylate (manufactured by Nippon Shokubai Co., Ltd.) (B-2) 4-Hydroxybutyl acrylate (manufactured by Osaka Organic Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) (B-3) Isodecyl acrylate (Hitachi Chemical Co., Ltd. "FA111A")
[0074] [Synthesis of compounds represented by formulas (1-7)] A 500 mL flask, consisting of a stirrer, thermometer, nitrogen gas inlet tube, outlet tube, and heating jacket, was used as the reactor. 225 g of glycol having polyoxyalkylene chains (Sanyo Chemical Industries, Ltd. "Newpol 75H-90000") and 300 g of toluene were added to the reactor and stirred at 45°C and a stirring speed of 250 revolutions / minute. Nitrogen was supplied at 100 mL / min and stirred for 30 minutes. The mixture was then cooled to 25°C, and after cooling was complete, 2.9 g of acryloyl chloride was added dropwise to the reactor and stirred for 30 minutes. Then, 3.8 g of triethylamine was added dropwise and stirred for 2 hours. The temperature was then raised to 45°C and the reaction was carried out for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was desoluble to obtain the compound represented by formula (1-7).
[0075] [Synthesis of compounds represented by formulas (1-8)] The compound represented by formula (1-8) was obtained by the same method as in the synthesis method of the compound represented by formula (1-7), except that the glycol having a polyoxyalkylene chain ("Newpol 75H-90000" manufactured by Sanyo Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was replaced with 240 g of polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene glycol (molecular weight 16000).
[0076] [Preparation of composition set] The common components and an oxidizing agent (oxidizing agent 1: cumene hydroperoxide (containing approximately 20% aromatic hydrocarbons) (Tokyo Chemical Industries, Ltd.), or oxidizing agent 2: 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl hydroperoxide (Trigonox TMBH-L, manufactured by Kayaku Nurion Co., Ltd.)) were mixed in the amounts (parts by mass) shown in Table 1 to obtain the first solution. The common components and a reducing agent (ethylenethiourea) were also mixed in the amounts (parts by mass) shown in Table 1 to obtain the second solution. Note that the amounts of the common components shown in Table 1 are the amounts used in the first and second solutions, respectively.
[0077] [Measurement of elongation at break, strength at break, and tensile modulus] The first and second liquids were mixed in the mass ratio shown in Table 1 to obtain a mixture of the first and second liquids. Next, each of these mixtures was filled into a 10cm × 10cm × 0.2mm mold (made of SUS plate), and after covering it with a SUS plate, it was heated at 135°C for 15 minutes to cure, thereby obtaining a cured product of the composition set with a thickness of 0.2mm (cured product of the mixture of the first and second liquids). The elongation at break, tensile modulus, and breaking strength of each cured product at 25°C were measured using a tensile testing machine ("Autograph EZ-TEST EZ-S" manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation). For the measurement, a cured product with a shape of 0.2mm (film thickness) × 5mm (width) × 30mm (length) was measured according to JIS K7161 under the conditions of a chuck distance of 20mm and a tensile speed of 5mm / min.
[0078] [Table 1]
[0079] As described above, components (A-1) to (A-2) used in Examples 1 to 5 have low viscosity at 25°C, and therefore the composition sets (first liquid and second liquid) containing them were easy to handle. Furthermore, the cured products of these composition sets showed a high elongation at break.
