Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite having excellent airtightness at the joining surface, and a method for producing the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite having excellent airtightness between a metal member and a polyarylene sulfide resin member that has excellent impact resistance, light weight, and mass producibility, and is particularly useful for use in parts for transportation equipment such as automobiles and aircraft, or for use in electrical and electronic parts for portable devices and the like that require waterproofing, and to a method for producing the metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite. [Background technology]
[0002] In order to reduce the weight of transportation equipment parts such as automobiles and aircraft, methods of replacing some metals with resins are being investigated. Also, as a method for integrating resin and metal into a composite, a method in which a metal member having a surface that has been subjected to physical and / or chemical treatment is inserted into a mold, and then resin is injection-molded to directly integrate the metal and resin (hereinafter, this method may be referred to as injection insert molding) has attracted attention from the viewpoints of good mass productivity, a small number of parts, low cost, high design flexibility, and a low environmental impact, and has been proposed for use in the manufacturing process of mobile electronic devices such as smartphones (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3).
[0003] Polyarylene sulfides (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as PAS), such as poly(p-phenylene sulfide) (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as PPS), have excellent mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties, as well as chemical resistance, and are widely used in a variety of electrical and electronic equipment components, automotive equipment components, and other office automation equipment components.
[0004] Furthermore, because PAS has excellent melt fluidity, it exhibits excellent bonding strength when used in injection insert molding with metal components having surfaces that have been subjected to physical and / or chemical treatments.
[0005] Furthermore, as resin compositions excellent in dimensional stability, thin-wall flowability, etc., amino group-containing PPS having a specific melt viscosity and crystallization temperature, a fibrous filler, a powdery granular filler, an ethylene copolymer, and a mold release agent (see, for example, Patent Document 4) have been proposed.
[0006] As a polyarylene sulfide resin composition for a box-shaped molded product having excellent moldability and mechanical strength, excellent flatness of the bottom surface of the box-shaped part, and reduced dimensional variation between shots, a polyarylene sulfide resin composition comprising a polyarylene sulfide resin having a specific melt viscosity and crystallization temperature, and an inorganic filler consisting of a fibrous filler and a non-fibrous filler (see, for example, Patent Document 5) has been proposed.
[0007] Furthermore, several studies have been conducted on PAS resin compositions that have good bonding properties with metals, and, for example, a resin composition that combines (a) PAS, (b) a polar group-containing polyethylene copolymer, and (c) a triazine thiol (see, for example, Patent Document 6), and a resin composition that combines (a) PPS, (b) a polar group-containing polyolefin, and (c) a compatibilizer (see, for example, Patent Document 7) have been proposed.
[0008] Furthermore, a metal-resin composite structure with excellent airtightness at the metal-resin joint surface has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 8). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0009] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 5701414 [Patent Document 2] Patent No. 5714193 [Patent Document 3] Patent No. 4020957 [Patent Document 4] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-16942 [Patent Document 5] Patent No. 4777080 [Patent Document 6] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-070712 [Patent Document 7] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-284899 [Patent Document 8] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2020-68070 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0010] However, in the metal member-resin member composites obtained by the injection insert molding methods proposed in Patent Documents 1 to 3, the adhesion of the metal-resin joint surface is quantified by joint strength to determine its superiority, but even when the joint strength is excellent, the airtightness of the metal-resin joint surface is not necessarily excellent. Furthermore, in the resin composition proposed in Patent Document 4, a PPS having a specific melt viscosity and crystallization temperature is used, and an insert-molded composite member composed of the resin composition and a metal member exhibits excellent mold releasability, dimensional stability, and cold and heat resistance. However, no consideration was given to the melt viscosity and crystallization temperature of the resin composition actually bonded to the metal member in the injection insert molding, resulting in the problem that the airtightness of the composite member may not be fully satisfactory. Furthermore, in the resin composition proposed in Patent Document 4, no consideration was given to the bond strength or airtightness at the joint surface when the resin composition is formed into a composite with a metal member having a surface that has been subjected to physical and / or chemical treatment, which may result in problems. With regard to the resin compositions proposed in Patent Documents 6 and 7, no consideration was given to the bonding strength or airtightness of the bonding surface when they are formed into a composite with a metal member having a surface that has been subjected to physical and / or chemical treatment, which may result in problems. Furthermore, although the cooling device and battery structure proposed in Patent Document 8 have excellent airtightness, the mechanism for achieving this airtightness is unclear, and quantitative quantification of the mechanism for achieving this airtightness has been desired.
[0011] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite having excellent airtightness between a metal member and a polyarylene sulfide resin member, and a method for stably producing a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite having excellent airtightness. [Means for solving the problem]
[0012] As a result of intensive research to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have found that a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite consisting of a polyarylene sulfide resin member and a metal member made of a resin composition comprising at least polyarylene sulfide resin, a modified ethylene copolymer, and glass fiber, in a specific blending ratio, and having a specific melt crystallization peak temperature and melt viscosity, has excellent airtightness at the joint surface, and have completed the present invention.
[0013] That is, the present invention relates to a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite which is an injection-molded integral body of a metal member and a polyarylene sulfide resin member, characterized in that the polyarylene sulfide resin member is an injection-molded member of a polyarylene sulfide resin composition that satisfies all of the following (1) to (3): (1) Using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), the sample is heated from 23°C to 330°C, held there for 5 minutes, and then cooled to 150°C at a rate of 20°C / min. The peak temperature of the melt crystallization peak obtained is 200°C or higher and 230°C or lower. (2) The melt flow rate (MFR) measured at 315°C in accordance with ISO 1133 is 20 g / 10 min or more and 150 g / 10 min or less. (3): Per 100 parts by weight of polyarylene sulfide resin (A), 5 to 25 parts by weight of at least one modified ethylene copolymer (B) selected from the group consisting of ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester-maleic anhydride copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester copolymer, and maleic anhydride-grafted ethylene-α-olefin copolymer, and 10 to 120 parts by weight of glass fiber (C).
[0014] The present invention will be described in detail below.
[0015] The metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention is a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite obtained by directly integrating a metal member and a polyarylene sulfide resin member by injection molding.
[0016] The polyarylene sulfide resin composition constituting the polyarylene sulfide resin member has a melt crystallization peak temperature (hereinafter sometimes referred to as melt crystallization temperature or Tc2) of 200°C or higher and 230°C or lower when measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (hereinafter sometimes referred to as DSC) by heating from 23°C to 330°C, holding for 5 minutes, and then cooling to 150°C at a rate of 20°C / min. The peak temperature (hereinafter sometimes referred to as melt crystallization temperature or Tc2) is 200°C or higher and 230°C or lower, and the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite has excellent airtightness. Here, if the polyarylene sulfide resin composition has a Tc2 of less than 200°C, the mold releasability in injection insert molding is significantly reduced, resulting in poor productivity of the metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite. On the other hand, if the Tc2 exceeds 230°C, the bonding between the metal member and the polyarylene sulfide resin member is poor, and the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite has poor airtightness.
[0017] The metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention is a composite in which a metal member and a polyarylene sulfide resin member are firmly bonded by insert molding. A molten polyarylene sulfide resin composition is injected into a mold by injection molding, and the fine irregularities on the surface of the metal member are transferred within the mold, resulting in an anchor effect. An important factor is that the irregularities on the metal surface are transferred accurately when the molten polyarylene sulfide resin composition solidifies. To achieve this, a polyarylene sulfide resin composition with an appropriate solidification rate enables excellent transferability. If the solidification rate is excessively fast, the resin composition solidifies before transferring the metal member surface, which can easily result in gaps called voids between the metal member surface and the resin member, resulting in poor airtightness. Furthermore, if the solidification rate is slow, the molding processability is poor, resulting in poor composite productivity. Therefore, if the Tc2 of the polyarylene sulfide resin member is less than 200°C, the solidification rate becomes excessively slow, significantly reducing mold releasability during composite production and resulting in poor productivity. On the other hand, if it exceeds 230°C, the solidification rate of the polyarylene sulfide resin composition becomes excessively fast, resulting in poor bonding between the metal member and the polyarylene sulfide resin member, and the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite will have poor airtightness. Furthermore, since the Tc2 of the polyarylene sulfide resin member of the present invention is a unique Tc2 of 200°C or higher and 230°C or lower, which is lower than the Tc2 of general polyarylene sulfide resins, it is possible to control the solidification rate from the molten state, resulting in excellent productivity and airtightness.
[0018] Furthermore, the polyarylene sulfide resin member is made of a polyarylene sulfide resin composition having a melt flow rate (hereinafter sometimes referred to as MFR) measured at 315°C in accordance with ISO 1133 of 20 g / 10 min to 150 g / 10 min, so that the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite has excellent airtightness at the bonding surface. Here, if the polyarylene sulfide resin composition has a melt flow rate of less than 20 g / 10 min, the resin composition will have poor fluidity in the mold, making it difficult to efficiently transfer the metal member surface, resulting in poor bonding between the metal member and the polyarylene sulfide resin member, and the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite will have poor airtightness. On the other hand, if the melt flow rate exceeds 150 g / 10 min, drooling is likely to occur during injection insert molding, making molding difficult. The metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention has a specific fluidity of 20 g / 10 min or more and 150 g / 10 min or less of MFR of the polyarylene sulfide resin member, and therefore exhibits good processability during member molding and excellent airtightness.
[0019] In the present invention, airtightness refers to the airtightness of the joint surface between a metal member and a polyarylene sulfide resin member against, for example, water, water vapor, organic solvents; acetone, ethanol, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, ammonia, etc., various vehicle liquids; automatic transmission fluid, long-life coolant, battery fluid, engine oil, gasoline, diesel, gear oil, brake oil, silicone oil, etc., gases; helium, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, air, carbon dioxide, ozone, methane, carbon monoxide, liquefied petroleum gas, hydrogen peroxide, hydrogen fluoride, etc., battery electrolyte, etc. The method for evaluating airtightness can be appropriately selected depending on the application and purpose, and an example of a helium leak test is the method proposed in JP 2020-68070 A.
[0020] The polyarylene sulfide resin member constituting the metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention contains, per 100 parts by weight of polyarylene sulfide resin (A), 5 to 25 parts by weight of at least one modified ethylene copolymer (B) selected from the group consisting of ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester-maleic anhydride copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester copolymer, and maleic anhydride grafted modified ethylene-α-olefin copolymer, and 10 to 120 parts by weight of glass fiber (C). The polyarylene sulfide resin (A) may be any resin that falls into the category generally referred to as a polyarylene sulfide resin. Examples of the polyarylene sulfide resin (A) include homopolymers or copolymers composed of p-phenylene sulfide units, m-phenylene sulfide units, o-phenylene sulfide units, phenylene sulfide sulfone units, phenylene sulfide ketone units, phenylene sulfide ether units, and biphenylene sulfide units. Specific examples of the polyarylene sulfide resin include poly(p-phenylene sulfide), polyphenylene sulfide sulfone, polyphenylene sulfide ketone, and polyphenylene sulfide ether. Among these, poly(p-phenylene sulfide) is preferred because it provides a polyarylene sulfide resin member that is particularly excellent in heat resistance and strength characteristics.
[0021] Furthermore, the polyarylene sulfide resin (A) is preferably a polyarylene sulfide resin having a melt viscosity of 90 to 2000 poise measured using a high-speed flow tester equipped with a die having a diameter of 1 mm and a length of 2 mm under conditions of a measurement temperature of 315°C and a load of 10 kg, since this makes it possible to efficiently obtain a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite having excellent airtightness at the joining surface.
[0022] The polyarylene sulfide resin (A) can be produced by a method known for producing polyarylene sulfide resins, for example, by polymerizing an alkali metal sulfide salt and a polyhaloaromatic compound in a polar solvent. Examples of the polar organic solvent include N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone, cyclohexylpyrrolidone, dimethylformamide, and dimethylacetamide. Examples of the alkali metal sulfide salt include anhydrous or hydrated sodium sulfide, rubidium sulfide, and lithium sulfide. The alkali metal sulfide salt may also be a product of reacting an alkali metal hydrosulfide salt with an alkali metal hydroxide. Examples of polyhaloaromatic compounds include p-dichlorobenzene, p-dibromobenzene, p-diiodobenzene, m-dichlorobenzene, m-dibromobenzene, m-diiodobenzene, 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfone, 4,4'-dichlorobenzophenone, 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl ether, and 4,4'-dichlorodibiphenyl.
[0023] The polyarylene sulfide resin (A) may be a linear one, one into which a small amount of a trihalogen or higher polyhalogen compound is added during polymerization to introduce a slight crosslinking or branched structure, one in which a part and / or end of the molecular chain of the polyarylene sulfide resin is modified with a functional group such as a carboxyl group, a carboxy metal salt, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, an amino group, or a nitro group, or one that has been subjected to heat treatment in a non-oxidizing inert gas such as nitrogen, or a mixture of these polyarylene sulfide resins. The polyarylene sulfide resin may also be one in which impurities such as sodium atoms, polyarylene sulfide resin oligomers, table salt, and sodium salt of 4-(N-methyl-chlorophenylamino)butanoate have been reduced by acid washing, hot water washing, or washing with an organic solvent such as acetone or methyl alcohol.
[0024] The polyarylene sulfide resin member constituting the metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention, which enables efficient production of a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite with excellent airtightness at the joining surface, contains 5 to 25 parts by weight of at least one modified ethylene copolymer (B) selected from the group consisting of ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester-maleic anhydride copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid glycidyl ester-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester polymer, and maleic anhydride-grafted ethylene-α-olefin copolymer, per 100 parts by weight of polyarylene sulfide resin (A). Here, if the blending amount of the modified ethylene copolymer (B) is less than 5 parts by weight, the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite will have poor airtightness at the joining surface. On the other hand, if the blending amount exceeds 25 parts by weight, the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite will have poor airtightness at the joint surface, and gas generation and mold contamination during injection insert molding will become significant, which is undesirable.
[0025] The polyarylene sulfide resin member constituting the metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention contains 10 to 120 parts by weight of glass fiber (C) per 100 parts by weight of polyarylene sulfide resin (A), since this allows for efficient production of a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite having excellent mechanical strength. As the glass fiber (C), any material generally known as glass fiber may be used. Specific examples of the glass fiber (C) include chopped strands having an average fiber diameter of 6 to 14 μm, chopped strands made of flat glass fibers having an aspect ratio of 2 to 4 in the fiber cross section, milled fibers, glass fibers such as roving, silane fibers, aluminosilicate glass fibers, hollow glass fibers, and non-hollow glass fibers. Among these, chopped strands having an average fiber diameter of 6 to 14 μm or chopped strands made of flat glass fibers having an aspect ratio of 2 to 4 in the fiber cross section are preferred, as they result in a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite with fewer defects in the bonding surface and excellent impact resistance. Two or more of these glass fibers can be used in combination, and if necessary, they may be surface-treated in advance with a functional compound or polymer such as an epoxy compound, an isocyanate compound, a silane compound, or a titanate compound.
[0026] Here, if the amount of glass fiber (C) is less than 10 parts by weight, the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite will have poor mechanical strength and impact resistance, while if the amount exceeds 120 parts by weight, the fluidity of the polyarylene sulfide resin composition will decrease, and the airtightness of the joint surface of the metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite will decrease.
[0027] The polyarylene sulfide resin member may contain a mold release agent (D) to improve mold releasability and appearance when molded into a molded product. Suitable examples of the mold release agent (D) include polyethylene wax, polypropylene wax, and fatty acid amide wax. Commonly available commercial products can be used as the polyethylene wax and polypropylene wax. The fatty acid amide wax is a polycondensate of a higher aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, a polybasic acid, and a diamine. Any wax within this category can be used, such as Light Amide WH-255 (manufactured by Kyoeisha Chemical Co., Ltd.), a polycondensate of stearic acid, sebacic acid, and ethylenediamine.
[0028] The polyarylene sulfide resin member may contain an epoxy resin (E), which allows for efficient production of a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite with excellent airtightness at the joining surface. The epoxy resin (E) may be any resin that falls within the category of epoxy resins. Specific examples include 2,2-bis(4'-hydroxyphenyl)propane (bisphenol A), bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)methane (bisphenol F), 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl sulfone (bisphenol S), 4,4'-dihydroxybiphenyl, resorcinol, saligenin, trihydroxydiphenyldimethylmethane, tetraphenylolethane, halogen-substituted and alkyl-substituted versions of these, butanediol, ethylene glycol, erythritol, novolac, glycerin, polyoxyalkylene, or other compounds containing two or more hydroxyl groups in the molecule, and epichlorohydrin, etc. Examples of epoxy resins include glycidyl ether-based epoxy resins synthesized from compounds containing two or more hydroxyl groups in the molecule and glycidyl phthalate ester; glycidyl group-containing epoxy resins such as glycidylamine-based epoxy resins synthesized from primary or secondary amines such as aniline, diaminodiphenylmethane, metaxylenediamine, and 1,3-bisaminomethylcyclohexane and epichlorohydrin; and glycidyl group-free epoxy resins such as epoxidized soybean oil, epoxidized polyolefins, vinylcyclohexene dioxide, and dicyclopentadiene dioxide. Among these, bisphenol-based epoxy resins, such as glycidyl ether-based epoxy resins and glycidyl ester-based epoxy resins of bisphenols such as bisphenol A, bisphenol F, and bisphenol S, are preferred because they provide particularly excellent airtightness at the bonded surfaces of the resulting metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite. Bisphenol A-based epoxy resins are even more preferred. The amount of the epoxy resin (E) to be added is preferably 1 to 15 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the polyarylene sulfide resin (A).
[0029] Furthermore, the polyarylene sulfide resin member may be added with whiskers such as carbon fibers, silicon nitride whiskers, basic magnesium sulfate whiskers, barium titanate whiskers, potassium titanate whiskers, silicon carbide whiskers, boron whiskers, and zinc oxide whiskers; inorganic fibers such as rock wool, zirconia, barium titanate, silicon carbide, silica, and blast furnace slag; organic fibers such as wholly aromatic polyamide fibers, phenolic resin fibers, and wholly aromatic polyester fibers; and mineral fibers such as wollastonite and magnesium oxysulfate, within the range not impairing the effects of the present invention. Calcium carbonate, lithium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, zinc carbonate, mica, silica, talc, clay, calcium sulfate, kaolin, wollastonite, zeolite, silicon oxide, magnesium oxide, zirconium oxide, tin oxide, magnesium silicate, calcium silicate, calcium phosphate, magnesium phosphate, hydrotalcite, glass powder, and glass balloons may also be added within the range not impairing the effects of the present invention.
[0030] Furthermore, the polyarylene sulfide resin member may contain one or more conventional additives such as plasticizers such as conventionally known polyalkylene oxide oligomer compounds, thioether compounds, ester compounds, and organic phosphorus compounds; antioxidants; heat stabilizers; lubricants; and foaming agents, within the scope of not impairing the effects of the present invention.
[0031] Furthermore, the polyarylene sulfide resin member may be made by mixing one or more of various thermosetting resins and thermoplastic resins, such as cyanate ester resins, phenolic resins, polyimides, silicone resins, polyesters, polyamides, polyphenylene oxides, polycarbonates, polysulfones, polyetherimides, polyethersulfones, polyetherketones, polyetheretherketones, polyamideimides, polyamide-based elastomers, polyester-based elastomers, and polyalkylene oxides, within the scope of the present invention.
[0032] The metal member constituting the metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention may be made of any material as long as it belongs to the category of metal members, and among them, aluminum members, aluminum alloy members, copper members, copper alloy members, magnesium members, magnesium alloy members, iron members, titanium members, titanium alloy members, and stainless steel members are preferred because they can be adapted to various applications when formed into a composite with a polyarylene sulfide resin member, and aluminum members, aluminum alloy members, magnesium members, magnesium alloy members, titanium members, and titanium alloy members are particularly preferred, as they are excellent in terms of weight reduction, and aluminum members and aluminum alloy members are more preferred. Furthermore, the metal member may be a wrought material such as a plate, a cast material such as a die-cast, or a forged material.
[0033] Furthermore, the metal member is preferably a metal member whose surface has been physically and / or chemically treated. By subjecting the metal member to such physical and / or chemical treatment, when directly integrated with the polyarylene sulfide resin member, a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite with excellent airtightness, etc., can be obtained. Any method can be used to physically and / or chemically treat the surface of the metal member. Examples of physical treatments include contacting or impacting the surface with fine solid particles, or irradiating the surface with high-energy electromagnetic radiation. More specifically, examples of such methods include sandblasting, liquid honing, and laser processing. Examples of abrasives used in sandblasting and liquid honing include sand, steel grit, steel shot, cut wire, alumina, silicon carbide, metal slag, glass beads, and plastic beads. Examples of laser processing methods include those proposed in WO 2007 / 072603 and JP 2015-142960 A.
[0034] Examples of chemical treatments include anodizing and chemical treatments using an acid or alkaline aqueous solution. Anodizing may involve, for example, using a metal member as the anode to carry out an electrochemical reaction in an electrolyte to form an oxide film on the surface, and may be a method commonly known as anodizing in fields such as plating. More specific examples include 1) direct current electrolysis, in which electrolysis is carried out by applying a constant direct current voltage, and 2) bipolar electrolysis, in which electrolysis is carried out by applying a voltage in which an alternating current component is superimposed on a direct current component. Specific examples of anodizing include the method proposed in WO2004 / 055248. Furthermore, the method of chemically treating with an acid or alkali aqueous solution may be, for example, a method of immersing a metal member in an acid or alkali aqueous solution to chemically treat the surface of the metal member. Examples of the acid or alkali aqueous solution include phosphoric acid and other phosphoric acid compounds; chromic acid and other chromic acid compounds; hydrofluoric acid and other hydrofluoric acid compounds; nitric acid and other nitric acid compounds; hydrochloric acid and other hydrochloric acid compounds; sulfuric acid and other sulfuric acid compounds; alkaline aqueous solutions such as sodium hydroxide and ammonia aqueous solutions; triazine thiol aqueous solutions, triazine thiol derivative aqueous solutions, etc. Examples include methods of chemical treatment using a solution, and more specific examples include methods proposed in JP 2017-132243 A, JP 2019-188651 A, WO2008 / 133296 A, Japanese Patent No. 5622785, JP 10-096088 A, JP 10-056263 A, JP 04-032585 A, JP 04-032583 A, JP 02-298284 A, WO2009 / 151099 A, WO2011 / 104944 A, etc.
[0035] As a method for producing the metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention, any method can be used as long as it allows for direct integration of a metal member and a polyarylene sulfide resin member by injection molding. Among these, injection insert molding is preferred because it allows for particularly efficient production of the composite. Examples of injection insert molding include a method in which a metal member is placed in a mold, a molten polyarylene sulfide resin composition is filled into the metal member to form a polyarylene sulfide resin member, and a composite in which the metal member and the polyarylene sulfide resin member are directly integrated. The melting temperature of the polyarylene sulfide resin composition in this case can be 280 to 340°C. As a molding machine for insert molding, injection insert molding is preferably performed using an injection molding machine, as this is particularly advantageous in terms of productivity. Furthermore, a mold temperature during insert molding is preferably 130°C or higher, particularly 140 to 160°C, because this allows for efficient production of a metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite with excellent airtightness. The mold pressure is preferably 1 MPa or more, and more preferably 30 MPa or more and 100 MPa or less.
[0036] The metal member-polyarylene sulfide resin member composite of the present invention has excellent airtightness and excellent airtight reliability, as well as excellent impact resistance, light weight, and mass-producibility, and is particularly suitable for use in parts for transportation equipment such as automobiles and aircraft, which require these properties and reliability, or for electrical and electronic parts for portable devices and the like, which require waterproofing. [Effects of the Invention]
