Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a radically polymerizable resin composition and a cured product thereof. This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2019-235910 filed in Japan on December 26, 2019, and incorporates the content herein by reference.
Background Art
[0002] When polymerization is carried out using a general liquid vinyl monomer, a large shrinkage occurs. Due to this shrinkage, when using vinyl monomers for industrial products, distortion problems occur. Therefore, creating a resin with a small shrinkage rate during polymerization is very industrially significant.
[0003] Radically polymerizable resin compositions typified by unsaturated polyester resins and vinyl ester resins (epoxy acrylates) also usually undergo shrinkage during curing. Since "styrene" and "methyl methacrylate", which are monomers shown in Table 1 of Non-Patent Document 1, are often used as monomers, unsaturated polyester resins in general formulations involve a volume shrinkage of about 8 to 12%, and vinyl ester resins involve a volume shrinkage of about 8 to 10%. This value is quite large even when compared with the 3 to 6% volume shrinkage of general epoxy resins. Therefore, it has hindered the use of unsaturated polyester resins or vinyl ester resins in industrial applications or their entry into other industries and applications.
[0004] As a method for solving this problem, Patent Document 1 states that by using polystyrene beads as a low-shrinkage material, it is possible to reduce the man-hours of manufacturing or shorten the manufacturing time, and to produce a low-shrinkage unsaturated polyester resin composition having excellent low shrinkage, dimensional stability, and surface smoothness.
[0005] In Patent Document 2, it is stated that by blending an A-B type block copolymer into an unsaturated polyester resin composition, a low-shrinkage unsaturated polyester resin composition capable of producing a molded article with low shrinkage during curing and excellent heat resistance can be obtained.
[0006] Furthermore, in Patent Document 3, by mixing an A-B type block copolymer (vinyl acetate-styrene type) composed of segments A and B and fine particle silica with an unsaturated polyester resin, a low-shrinkage unsaturated polyester resin composition having a large low-shrinkage effect during normal temperature or medium temperature molding and high water resistance can be obtained.
[0007] In addition, there is a so-called "expansive concrete" which is a concrete obtained by mixing an expansive agent as an admixture into a conventional water-curable composition (for example, a composition containing cement such as Portland cement). According to the Japanese JIS standard, it is said that by curing in water for 7 days, a hydrate of the expansive agent is formed and the volume increases, but no expansion effect is recognized in the air.

Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0010] In conventional radically polymerizable resin compositions, in order to create a resin with a low shrinkage rate, a single blend of a thermoplastic resin such as polystyrene or a block copolymer of two or more types has been used. These have mostly functioned as "shrinkage preventives." Moreover, these resin compositions are based on the idea of offsetting the thermal expansion of the thermoplastic resin due to heat generation during curing and the curing shrinkage of the unsaturated polyester resin, and are often limited in use to applications such as sheet molding compounds (SMC) and bulk molding compounds (BMC) that are heat-molded at medium temperatures or higher.
[0011] The present invention has been made in view of the above conventional situation. Instead of using a shrinkage preventive, by incorporating an expanding material, the whole expands at a constant ratio during the curing of the resin composition without being limited by the molding method, use temperature, application, etc., and then stabilizes, thereby providing a radically polymerizable resin composition with a small shrinkage rate. Another object is to provide a cured product of a radically polymerizable resin composition that does not cause a decrease in strength after molding.

Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention
[0016] The present invention will be described in detail below.
[0017] (Radically Polymerizable Resin Composition) The radical polymerizable resin composition according to one embodiment of the present invention contains a radical polymerizable compound (A), an expanding material (B), a radical polymerization initiator (C), and an aggregate (I), and does not contain free water. The aggregate (I) contains bound water. Here, "bound water" is a concept for distinguishing from free water. As described in the "method for measuring water content" described later, it is water calculated from the weight change rate (decrease rate) from 95°C to 105°C in a TG / DTA experiment. For example, it includes crystal water contained in the aggregate (I), adsorbed water strongly adsorbed on the internal micropores and surface of the aggregate (I), and the like. Further, "free water" includes, for example, water added in the step of adding water in the manufacturing process of the radical polymerizable resin composition. The meaning of "the radical polymerizable resin composition does not contain free water and the aggregate (I) contains bound water" is the meaning of the radical polymerizable resin composition obtained by a manufacturing method that does not add water. Preferably, it means a radical polymerizable resin composition obtained by a manufacturing method that does not perform pretreatment on the aggregate (I) under the absolute dry conditions described later, is used in the manufacturing process of the radical polymerizable resin composition, and does not include a step of adding water in the manufacturing process. For example, commercially available aggregates (I) and the like can be used as they are. Alternatively, in order to make the content of bound water more stable, pretreatment of storing the aggregate (I) at a certain temperature and humidity for a certain time can also be performed. Since the water content of the bound water contained in the aggregate (I) can be confirmed by the measurement method described later, the temperature, humidity, and treatment time can be appropriately determined according to the type of the aggregate (I) used and the water content at the time of acquisition.

The length of one side (mesh size) of the square of the biaxial mesh and the length of one side (mesh size) of the equilateral triangle of the triaxial mesh are each preferably 5 mm or more, more preferably 10 to 20 mm. By using a biaxial mesh or a triaxial mesh, a curable material for preventing concrete spalling that is lightweight, economical, easy to construct, and excellent in durability can be obtained. These fibers are preferably used when reinforcing coating film properties such as concrete spalling prevention and FRP waterproofing, or manufacturing FRP molded products. In applications such as preventing concrete spalling, glass fibers, cellulose fibers, etc., which are excellent in transparency among fibers, are preferable because the deterioration state of the base can be visually inspected from the outside.
[0083] The content of such fibers is preferably 0.3 to 200 parts by mass, more preferably 0.5 to 100 parts by mass, and still more preferably 1.0 to 50 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the radically polymerizable compound (A).

The polyisocyanate compound reacts with the hydroxyl group of the radically polymerizable compound (A) to form a cured coating film. The polyisocyanate compound contains two or more isocyanate groups in the molecule, and the isocyanate groups may be blocked with a blocking agent or the like. Examples of polyisocyanate compounds that are not blocked with a blocking agent include aliphatic diisocyanates such as lysine diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, and trimethylhexane diisocyanate; cycloaliphatic diisocyanates such as hydrogenated xylylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, methylcyclohexane-2,4(or 2,6)-diisocyanate, 4,4'-methylenebis(cyclohexyl isocyanate), and 1,3-(isocyanatomethyl)cyclohexane; aromatic diisocyanates such as tolylene diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate, and diphenylmethane diisocyanate; polyisocyanates such as trivalent or higher polyisocyanates like lysine triisocyanate, and adducts of each of these polyisocyanates with polyhydric alcohols, low molecular weight polyester resins, or water, cyclopolymerization products of the above-mentioned diisocyanates with each other (e.g., isocyanurate), biuret-type adducts, etc. Among them, isocyanurate of hexamethylene diisocyanate is preferred. These polyisocyanate compounds may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0087] When the radical-polymerizable resin composition contains a polyisocyanate compound, the amount thereof is preferably 0.1 part by mass to 50 parts by mass, more preferably 1 to 30 parts by mass, and still more preferably 2 to 20 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the radical-polymerizable compound (A).
[0088] The blocked polyisocyanate compound is obtained by blocking the isocyanate group of the above polyisocyanate compound with a blocking agent. Examples of the blocking agent include phenolic compounds such as phenol, cresol, and xylenol; ε-caprolactam; lactam compounds such as δ-valerolactam, γ-butyrolactam, and β-propiolactam; alcohol compounds such as methanol, ethanol, n- or iso-propyl alcohol, n-, iso- or tert-butyl alcohol, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, and benzyl alcohol; oxime compounds such as formamidoxime, acetaldoxime, acetoxime, methyl ethyl ketoxime, diacetyl monoxime, benzophenone oxime, and cyclohexanone oxime; and active methylene compounds such as dimethyl malonate, diethyl malonate, ethyl acetoacetate, methyl acetoacetate, and acetylacetone. By mixing the polyisocyanate and the blocking agent, the isocyanato group of the polyisocyanate can be easily blocked.
[0089] When the polyisocyanato compound is a non-blocked polyisocyanato compound, if the radically polymerizable compound (A) and the polyisocyanato compound in the radically polymerizable resin composition of the present invention are mixed, the two will react. Therefore, it is preferable to separate the radically polymerizable compound (A) and the polyisocyanato compound until use and mix them at the time of use. In addition, a curing catalyst can be used to react the radically polymerizable compound (A) with the polyisocyanato compound. Examples of suitable curing catalysts include organometallic catalysts such as tin octylate, dibutyltin bis(2-ethylhexanoate), dioctyltin bis(2-ethylhexanoate), dioctyltin diacetate, dibutyltin dilaurate, dibutyltin oxide, dioctyltin oxide, and lead 2-ethylhexanoate. When the radical polymerizable resin composition contains the above-mentioned amount of the curing catalyst, the amount is preferably 0.01 to 5 parts by mass, more preferably 0.05 to 4 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the radical polymerizable compound (A).
[0090] <Other components> The radical polymerizable resin composition of the present invention may contain components other than the above-mentioned components, as long as it does not particularly hinder the strength development property and acid resistance of the cured product. Examples of the components that can be contained include, for example, hydraulic inorganic substances such as calcium sulfate and pozzolanic substances, and, for example, admixtures that can impart properties such as setting adjustment, curing acceleration, curing delay, thickening, water retention, defoaming, water repellency, and waterproofing, which can be used in mortar or concrete; fibers made of materials such as metals, polymers, and carbon; pigments; extenders; foaming agents; and admixtures that can be used in mortar or concrete, such as clay minerals such as zeolites.
[0091] <Method for producing radical polymerizable resin composition> The method for producing the radical polymerizable resin composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, and a method known in the art can be used. Examples include a method including a mixing step of mixing the radical polymerizable compound (A), the expansion material (B), the radical polymerization initiator (C), and the aggregate (I). The aggregate (I) contains bound water. For example, the radical polymerizable resin composition can be produced by mixing the radical polymerizable compound (A) with a metal-containing compound (D) as necessary, and further blending and mixing the radical polymerization initiator (C), the expansion material (B), and the aggregate (I). In the method for producing the radical polymerizable resin composition, it is preferably not to include a step of adding water. When water is added, the radical polymerizable resin composition contains free water, and the compressive strength of the cured product of the radical polymerizable resin composition deteriorates. However, the bound water contained in raw materials such as the aggregate (I) has little effect on the compressive strength of the cured product, unlike the added free water. One embodiment of the method for producing a radically polymerizable resin composition of the present invention includes a step (S1) of mixing a radically polymerizable compound (A) with a metal-containing compound (D) as necessary to obtain a resin product, a step (S2) of mixing a radical polymerization initiator (C) with the obtained resin product to obtain a curable resin product, and a step (S3) of mixing an expansion material (B) with the obtained curable resin product to obtain a radically polymerizable resin composition.
[0092] In the step (S1) of obtaining the resin product (which may also be simply referred to as "step (S1)"), in addition to mixing the metal-containing compound (D) with the radically polymerizable compound (A), a polymerization inhibitor (G), a curing retarder (H), a thiol compound (E), etc. may be further mixed as necessary. In the step (S3) of obtaining the radically polymerizable resin composition (which may also be simply referred to as "step (S3)"), in addition to mixing the expansion material (B) with the curable resin product obtained in the step (S2) of obtaining the curable resin product (which may also be simply referred to as "step (S2)"), an aggregate (I), a water reducing agent (K), a fiber (J), etc. may be further mixed as necessary. As specific examples of the aggregate (I), for example, early strength Portland cement, N90 silica sand, calcium carbonate TM-2, N50 silica sand, N40 silica sand, etc. can be used.
[0093] The radically polymerizable resin composition produced in this way can be cured at room temperature and is excellent in workability, early strength development, and curability. Since it has the expansion material (B), the shrinkage rate during curing is small, and depending on the conditions, the expansion rate of the cured product can be made greater than 0.
[0094] <Cured product of the radically polymerizable resin composition> The cured product of the radically polymerizable resin composition of the present invention is obtained by curing the above-mentioned radically polymerizable resin composition. The rate of change in the length of the cured product is not particularly limited and can be adjusted with each component of the radically polymerizable resin composition used. For example, the rate of change in the length of the cured product is preferably 0 to 1000×10 -6 after 3000 hours or more after curing.
[0095] [Method for curing radical polymerizable resin composition] When the radical polymerizable resin composition of the present invention contains a thermal radical polymerization initiator (C-1), as an example of the method for curing the radical polymerizable resin composition of the present invention, a curing method in which the radical polymerizable resin composition of the present invention is applied to the surface of a substrate and cured at room temperature can be mentioned. For example, the radical polymerizable resin composition of the present invention is used as a cross-sectional repair material for inorganic structures. Since the radical polymerizable resin composition of the present invention contains the swelling material (B), the obtained cured product does not shrink significantly as in the prior art even after a certain period of time. Examples of the material of the substrate include concrete, asphalt concrete, mortar, brick, wood, metal, and thermosetting resins such as phenolic resin, epoxy resin, melamine resin, urea resin, unsaturated polyester resin, vinyl ester resin, alkyd resin, polyurethane, and polyimide; and thermoplastic resins such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, polyvinyl acetate, polyurethane, Teflon (registered trademark), ABS resin, AS resin, and acrylic resin.
[0096] When the radical polymerizable resin composition of the present invention contains a photo radical polymerization initiator (C-2), as the timing of photocuring, there are methods such as photocuring after applying the radical polymerizable resin composition to a substrate, and a method of preparing a sheet in which the radical polymerizable resin composition is preliminarily prepolymerized (also referred to as B-stage or prepreg) and then photocuring after sticking the sheet to the substrate.
[0097] As the light source, any light source having a spectral distribution in the photosensitive wavelength range of the photo radical polymerization initiator (C-2) may be used. For example, sunlight, ultraviolet lamps, near-infrared lamps, sodium lamps, halogen lamps, fluorescent lamps, metal halide lamps, LEDs, etc. can be used. Also, two or more photo radical polymerization initiators (C-2) can be used in combination, and a wavelength cut filter can be used for the light source, or a specific wavelength of an LED can be utilized to properly use the wavelengths required for prepolymerization and main polymerization. The wavelength used for prepolymerization is preferably a long wavelength with a low energy level, and in particular, when using near-infrared light, it is easy to control the degree of polymerization. In the present invention, ultraviolet light (ultraviolet rays) refers to light rays in the wavelength range of 280 to 380 nm, visible light (visible rays) refers to light rays in the wavelength range of 380 to 780 nm, and near-infrared light (near-infrared rays) refers to light rays in the wavelength range of 780 to 1200 nm. The irradiation time of the lamp required for prepolymerization cannot be generally specified because it is affected by the effective wavelength range, output, irradiation distance, thickness of the composition, etc. of the light source. For example, it may be irradiated for 0.01 hour or more, preferably 0.05 hour or more.

After molding, it was left standing (cured) in a room at a temperature of 23°C ± 2°C and a humidity of 50% while still in the mold, and demolded about 24 hours after molding. Then, using the instrument shown in 3 of JIS A 1129-3, the measurement was started under the conditions shown in 4.3 of JIS A 1129-3 (the start time is set to 0).
[0100] Change amount (negative number: shrinkage amount, positive number: expansion amount) = long side length at elapsed time - long side length at start (0 hour) (160 mm) (1)

[0129] (Comparative Example 4) A radical polymerizable resin composition was obtained in the same manner as in Example 4 except that the aggregate (I) of Example 4 was dried under the following absolute dry conditions and then used. Also, a cured product of the radical polymerizable resin composition was produced in the same manner as in Example 1.

[0132] (Discussion) From the results in Table 2 and Figure 1, according to the radically polymerizable resin composition of the present invention having the expanding agent (B), for the cured product, in Example 1, the shrinkage rate during curing was significantly suppressed, and for the cured products of Examples 2 and 3, it was found that they expanded from the start of curing to a reference length (160 mm) after 24 hours of curing.
[0133] The cured product of the radically polymerizable resin composition of Example 3 had an expansion amount (expansion rate) of +40 μm (+250×10 -6 ) to +131 μm (+819×10 -6 ). However, since the radically polymerizable resin composition of Comparative Example 1 did not contain the expanding agent (B), for the cured product thereof, -48 μm (-300×10 -6) to -80 μm (-500×10 -6 ) of the amount of shrinkage (shrinkage rate) was observed. In Comparative Example 2 using an epoxy resin composition, although it contained the expansion material (B), a large amount of shrinkage almost the same as that of Comparative Example 3 which did not contain it was observed.
[0134] From the results in Table 4 and Figure 2, in Comparative Example 4 where the water content of the aggregate (I) pretreated under absolute dry conditions was 0.00 g, for the cured product, instead of expansion, -250×10 -6 to -350×10 -6 ) of the shrinkage rate was observed. Also, in Comparative Example 5 where water was added after mixing the aggregate (I) into the resin product, the compressive strength of the cured product deteriorated as compared with Example 1 and Comparative Example 4.
