Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a two-component curing urethane adhesive that uses a glycerol ester polyol having a methylol group. [Background technology]

[0002] Urethane adhesives are widely used in various fields because they exhibit high strength and can be used to bond dissimilar materials such as metal and plastic due to the flexibility unique to urethane. For example, in recent years, the automobile industry has begun to use resin materials such as fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP) instead of steel plates in order to reduce weight, and this has led to a demand for urethane adhesives with higher performance.

[0003] In addition, due to global warming caused by an increase in carbon dioxide concentration and the occurrence of abnormal weather worldwide, there is an increasing demand for bio-based (non-petroleum) resins derived from plants, etc., for adhesive resins. However, for example, the plant-based polyol disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 5398715 is a polyol having a secondary hydroxyl group derived from castor oil, and there is a problem that the polyol having a secondary hydroxyl group has a lower reactivity with polyisocyanate than the polyol having a primary hydroxyl group. JP-T-2008-504287 discloses a polyol obtained from hydroformylated soybean oil, but soybean oil has a low oleic acid content of 25%, and a urethane cured product having an ideal crosslinking structure cannot be obtained by reaction with polyisocyanate, and there is a problem that the hardness and physical properties are inferior.

[0004] JP2021-536501A discloses a polyol having a primary hydroxyl group obtained by hydroformylating and hydrogenating an algae-derived triacylglycerol. However, the document does not disclose a polyurethane adhesive that meets the requirements for practical use. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

Effect of the Invention

[0010] The glycerol ester polyol used in the present invention contains a primary hydroxyl group, and therefore has high reactivity with an isocyanate group. In addition, since the proportion of fatty acid residues derived from oleic acid is high and the structure is highly regular, the adhesive has high fast curing properties and adhesive properties, and has good chemical resistance. In the present invention, a two-part curing adhesive is used, which is a base agent containing a urethane prepolymer and / or a tolylene diisocyanate polyisocyanate produced by the reaction of a polyisocyanate with a polyol A, and a curing agent containing a glycerol ester polyol, and therefore adhesive performance such as fast curing properties and adhesive strength can be further improved. Furthermore, since the adhesive of the present invention has high curing properties, it is possible to reduce the amount of highly toxic reaction accelerators such as amines, and by using a bio-derived triacylglycerol, it is possible to reduce petroleum raw materials.

[0034] (One of X1 and X2 is hydrogen and the other is a methylol group; One of X3 and X4 is hydrogen and the other is a methylol group; One of X5 and X6 is hydrogen and the other is a methylol group; R and R' are each independently a residue of an unsaturated or saturated fatty acid other than the group represented by the following formula (3), or hydrogen.

[0035] [ka]

[0036] (One of the pair of Y1 and Y2 is hydrogen and the other is a methylol group, and * is a bond.)

[0039] The glycerol ester polyol used in the present invention has a high content of oleic acid residues and is highly regular.

If the amount of isocyanate groups relative to the amount of hydroxyl groups of the glycerol ester polyol exceeds the above range, the elastic modulus of the adhesive tends to decrease, and if the amount of isocyanate groups relative to the amount of hydroxyl groups in the curing agent decreases beyond the above range, the adhesive strength tends to decrease.

[0042] <<When using other polyols in combination with the hardener>> When a polyol other than the above glycerol ester polyol is used in the curing agent, the equivalent ratio (isocyanate group / hydroxyl group) of the isocyanate group in the base material to the hydroxyl group in the curing agent (total hydroxyl groups of the glycerol ester polyol and the other polyol) is preferably 0.3 to 3.0, more preferably 0.5 to 2.0. If the amount of isocyanate groups relative to the amount of hydroxyl groups in the curing agent exceeds the above range, the elastic modulus of the adhesive tends to decrease, and if the amount of isocyanate groups relative to the amount of hydroxyl groups in the curing agent decreases beyond the above range, the adhesive strength tends to decrease.

[0043] <Synthesis of glycerol ester polyol> The raw material glycerol ester having unsaturated fatty acid residues is hydroformylated and then hydrogenated to introduce a primary hydroxyl group (methylol group) into the carbon-carbon double bond of the unsaturated fatty acid residue, producing a glycerol ester polyol.

In the present invention, the glycerol ester used as a raw material is preferably non-petroleum-derived. Non-petroleum-derived raw materials include bio-derived raw materials. Here, bio refers to biological resources such as animals, plants, and microorganisms. Microorganisms are a general term for microscopic organisms.

[0045] Hydroformylation is, for example, a reaction between a glycerol ester having an unsaturated fatty acid residue and carbon monoxide and hydrogen, resulting in the addition of a formyl (CHO) group and hydrogen to the carbon-carbon double bond of the unsaturated fatty acid residue. Hydroformylation can be carried out, for example, by pressurizing a reaction vessel containing the glycerol ester and a catalyst to about 500 psi to about 1500 psi with a synthesis gas of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, and reacting at a temperature of about 40°C to about 200°C for about 1 hour to about 10 hours.

[0046] Catalysts for use in hydroformylation include cobalt-based catalysts (e.g., hydridotetracarbonylcobalt catalysts, cobalt phosphine catalysts, cobalt catalysts supplemented with precious metals (e.g., palladium, ruthenium, or platinum), etc.), rhodium-based catalysts (e.g., rhodium phosphine catalysts, acetylacetonato-dicarbonylrhodium(I) (Rh(CO)2acac) catalysts, rhodium / cyclohexyldiphenylphosphine (Rh / CHDPP) catalysts, etc.), and any other transition metal-based catalysts suitable for hydroformylation.

[0047] Next, the formyl (CHO) group of the hydroformylated triacylglycerol is reduced to a primary alcohol (methylol group) with hydrogen in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst. The hydrogenation can be carried out, for example, by reacting at a pressure of about 500 psi to about 1500 psi and at a temperature of about 40°C to about 250°C for about 1 hour to about 10 hours.

[0048] The hydrogenation catalyst may be a general hydrogenation catalyst, for example, Raney nickel (sponge nickel), Urushibara nickel, nickel, palladium, platinum, rhodium, ruthenium, or the like.

[0049] (Curing reaction) Since the adhesive of the present invention is a two-component curing adhesive, the base agent and the curing agent are mixed when used, and the curing reaction occurs to bond the adhesive. The glycerol ester polyol used as the curing agent has a primary hydroxyl group (methylol group) and reacts quickly with the isocyanate group, so no reaction accelerator or curing catalyst is required for the curing reaction. The curing performance of the two-component curing adhesive of the present invention is based on an appropriate combination of the base agent and the curing agent. For example, it is based on an appropriate selection of the polyol A and polyisocyanate of the base agent, an appropriate selection of the glycerol ester polyol of the curing agent, and an appropriate mixing ratio of the polyisocyanate and polyol A, and the polyisocyanate and the glycerol ester polyol. EXAMPLES
