Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a vinyl chloride resin composition, a vinyl chloride resin molded article, and a laminate. [Background technology]

[0002] Vinyl chloride resins are generally used in a variety of applications due to their excellent properties such as cold resistance, heat resistance, and oil resistance. Specifically, for example, automobile interior parts such as automobile instrument panels and door trims are formed using automobile interior materials such as skins made of polyvinyl chloride resin molded products and laminates made by lining a skin made of polyvinyl chloride resin molded product with a foam such as polyurethane foam.

[0003] Vinyl chloride resin molded articles that form the skin of automobile interior parts such as automobile instrument panels are produced, for example, by molding a vinyl chloride resin composition containing vinyl chloride resin, a plasticizer, and an additive using a powder molding method such as powder slush molding (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0004] Specifically, for example, in Patent Document 1, a vinyl chloride resin molded article is produced by powder slush molding a vinyl chloride resin composition containing vinyl chloride resin particles, a plasticizer such as a polyester-based plasticizer, and additives such as a hydrotalcite-based stabilizer, a zeolite-based stabilizer, and β-diketones.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-197394 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] Here, when a laminate is formed by lining (laminating) a polyvinyl chloride resin molded body with a polyurethane foam (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a "polyurethane foam molded body"), it is necessary to prevent the formation of relatively large voids (air gaps) in the polyurethane foam molded body. On the other hand, vinyl chloride resin molded articles are required to have excellent abrasion resistance. However, when the vinyl chloride resin composition of the above-mentioned prior art, which uses a polyester-based plasticizer as a plasticizer, is used, there is room for improvement in terms of improving the abrasion resistance of the vinyl chloride resin molded article while suppressing the generation of voids in the foamed polyurethane molded article laminated on the resulting vinyl chloride resin molded article.

[0007] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a vinyl chloride resin composition capable of forming a vinyl chloride resin molded article that has excellent abrasion resistance and can suppress the generation of voids in the laminated polyurethane foam molded article. Another object of the present invention is to provide a vinyl chloride resin molded article that has excellent abrasion resistance and can suppress the generation of voids in a laminated polyurethane foam molded article. A further object of the present invention is to provide a laminate comprising the vinyl chloride resin molded article. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The present inventors have conducted extensive research to solve the above problems, and have found that adding a cross-linked vinyl chloride resin and an ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value of at least a predetermined value to a vinyl chloride resin composition containing a polyester-based plasticizer improves the abrasion resistance of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition, and also makes it possible to suppress the generation of voids in a foamed polyurethane molded article laminated on the vinyl chloride resin molded article, thereby completing the present invention.

[0009] That is, the present invention aims to advantageously solve the above-mentioned problems, and the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention is characterized by containing a vinyl chloride resin, a cross-linked vinyl chloride resin, a polyester-based plasticizer, and an ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value of 1.5 or more. Thus, a vinyl chloride resin composition containing a vinyl chloride resin, a cross-linked vinyl chloride resin, a polyester-based plasticizer, and an ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value of a predetermined value or more can form a vinyl chloride resin molded article that is excellent in abrasion resistance and can suppress the generation of voids in a laminated polyurethane foam molded article. In the present invention, the term "HLB value" refers to the Hydrophile-Lipophile Balance, which is calculated according to the Griffin method using the following formula (1): HLB value = 20 x (sum of formula weights of chain ethylene oxide structures / molecular weight) (1) Here, in the present invention, the "chain ethylene oxide structure" refers to a chain ethylene oxide structure, which will be described in detail later, and does not include, for example, a cyclic ethylene oxide structure such as an epoxy group.

[0010] Here, in the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention, the ether-modified silicone oil preferably has an HLB value of not more than 10. Use of an ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value not more than the above-mentioned predetermined value can improve the demoldability of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition.

[0011] In the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention, the ether-modified silicone oil preferably has an ether group having a chain-like ethylene oxide structure and a chain-like propylene oxide structure introduced into its side chain. Use of an ether-modified silicone oil having the above-described specific structure can further improve the abrasion resistance of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition, and can further suppress the generation of voids in a laminated foamed polyurethane molded article. Use of an ether-modified silicone oil having the above-described specific structure can also improve the demoldability of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition.

[0012] The vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention preferably contains 0.01 to 2 parts by mass of the ether-modified silicone oil per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin. When the content of the ether-modified silicone oil per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is within the above-mentioned range, the abrasion resistance of the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition can be further improved, and the generation of voids in the laminated foamed polyurethane molded article can be further suppressed. Furthermore, when the content of the ether-modified silicone oil per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is within the above-mentioned range, the demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved, and contamination of the surface of a molding die or the like due to an excessive amount of ether-modified silicone oil can be suppressed, for example, even when the vinyl chloride resin molded article is continuously molded using the vinyl chloride resin composition.

[0013] Furthermore, in the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention, the content of the cross-linked vinyl chloride resin is preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more and 20 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin. When the content of the cross-linked vinyl chloride resin per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is within the above-mentioned range, the abrasion resistance of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition can be further improved, and the demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article can be improved.

[0014] Furthermore, in the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention, the polyester-based plasticizer preferably contains an adipic acid polyester. Use of an adipic acid polyester as the polyester-based plasticizer can improve the heat shrinkage resistance of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition.

[0015] Furthermore, in the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention, the content of the polyester-based plasticizer is preferably 30 parts by mass or more and 200 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin. When the content of the polyester-based plasticizer per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is within the above-mentioned range, the tensile properties and heat shrinkage resistance of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved, while the abrasion resistance and demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article can be ensured to be sufficiently high.

[0016] The vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention is preferably used for powder molding. By using the vinyl chloride resin composition for powder molding, a vinyl chloride resin molded article that can be favorably used as an automobile interior material, such as a skin for an automobile instrument panel, can be easily obtained.

[0017] The vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention is preferably used for powder slush molding. By using the vinyl chloride resin composition for powder slush molding, it is possible to more easily obtain a vinyl chloride resin molded article that can be favorably used as an automobile interior material, such as a skin for an automobile instrument panel.

[0018] Furthermore, the present invention aims to advantageously solve the above-mentioned problems, and provides a vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention, characterized in that it is obtained by molding any of the vinyl chloride resin compositions described above. Thus, a vinyl chloride resin molded article obtained by molding the vinyl chloride resin composition described above has excellent abrasion resistance and can suppress the generation of voids in a laminated polyurethane foam molded article.

[0019] The vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention is preferably used for the skin of an automobile instrument panel. By using the vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention for the skin of an automobile instrument panel, it is possible to produce an automobile instrument panel having a skin that is excellent in abrasion resistance and can suppress the generation of voids in the laminated polyurethane foam molded article.

[0020] Furthermore, the present invention aims to advantageously solve the above-mentioned problems, and provides a laminate comprising a polyurethane foam and any of the vinyl chloride resin molded articles described above. The laminate comprising the polyurethane foam and the vinyl chloride resin molded article described above has a vinyl chloride resin molded article portion that is excellent in abrasion resistance, and the occurrence of voids in the polyurethane foam molded article portion is reduced.

[0021] The laminate of the present invention is preferably used for an automobile instrument panel. By using the laminate of the present invention in an automobile instrument panel, it is possible to produce an automobile instrument panel having a surface excellent in abrasion resistance and reduced voids in the polyurethane foam molded body portion. [Effects of the Invention]

[0026] Therefore, by using the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention, when a foamed polyurethane molding is lined, the generation of voids in the foamed polyurethane molding can be suppressed, and vinyl chloride resin moldings having excellent abrasion resistance can be obtained that are suitable for use as automotive interior materials, such as automotive instrument panel coverings and door trim coverings.

[0027] Furthermore, a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention can be easily demolded from the mold used to mold the vinyl chloride resin composition, i.e., the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention has excellent demoldability.

[0028] From the viewpoint of easily obtaining a vinyl chloride resin molded article that can be favorably used as an automobile interior material, for example, using the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention, the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention is preferably used for powder molding, and more preferably used for powder slush molding.

[0030] Examples of the (a) vinyl chloride resin include a homopolymer composed of vinyl chloride monomer units, as well as a vinyl chloride copolymer containing preferably 50% by mass or more, more preferably 70% by mass or more, of vinyl chloride monomer units. Specific examples of monomers (comonomers) copolymerizable with vinyl chloride monomers that can constitute vinyl chloride copolymers include those described in International Publication No. 2016 / 098344. These components may be used alone or in combination of two or more in any ratio. In the present invention, the (a) vinyl chloride resin is defined as a non-crosslinked vinyl chloride resin, i.e., the (a) vinyl chloride resin does not include the (b) crosslinked vinyl chloride resin described below.

[0031] <<Vinyl chloride resin particles>> In the vinyl chloride resin composition, the vinyl chloride resin particles usually function as a matrix resin (substrate). The vinyl chloride resin particles are preferably produced by a suspension polymerization method.

When the average degree of polymerization of the vinyl chloride resin constituting the vinyl chloride resin particles is above the above-mentioned lower limit, the physical strength of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition can be sufficiently ensured, while, for example, improving tensile properties, particularly tensile elongation. Furthermore, a vinyl chloride resin molded article with good tensile elongation can be suitably used as an automotive interior material, such as the surface of an automobile instrument panel, which has excellent ductility and breaks as designed without scattering fragments when an airbag is inflated and deployed. Furthermore, when the average degree of polymerization of the vinyl chloride resin constituting the vinyl chloride resin particles is below the above-mentioned upper limit, the meltability of the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved.

Furthermore, if the average degree of polymerization of the vinyl chloride resin constituting the vinyl chloride resin microparticles is below the above upper limit, the meltability of the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved, and the surface smoothness of a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved.

[0037] [Average particle size] The average particle size of the vinyl chloride resin fine particles is usually less than 30 μm, preferably 10 μm or less, more preferably 5 μm or less, and preferably 0.1 μm or more, more preferably 1 μm or more. If the average particle size of the vinyl chloride resin fine particles is equal to or greater than the above-mentioned lower limit, the powder flowability of the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved without excessively reducing the size of the particles used as a dusting agent. If the average particle size of the vinyl chloride resin fine particles is equal to or less than the above-mentioned upper limit, the meltability of the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved, thereby improving the surface smoothness of the vinyl chloride resin molded article that is formed.

[0038] [Content ratio] The content of vinyl chloride resin microparticles in (a) vinyl chloride resin may be 0% by mass, but is preferably 2% by mass or more, more preferably 5% by mass or more, and preferably 30% by mass or less, and more preferably 20% by mass or less.

[0039] <(b) Cross-linked vinyl chloride resin> The (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin is a component that can function as a dusting agent (powder flow improver) in a vinyl chloride resin composition. The inclusion of the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in a vinyl chloride resin composition can improve the powder flowability of the vinyl chloride resin composition. Furthermore, the inclusion of the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in a vinyl chloride resin composition can improve the abrasion resistance and demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article that is formed.

[0040] (b) Crosslinked vinyl chloride resin is a resin obtained by crosslinking a vinyl chloride resin. The (b) crosslinked vinyl chloride resin can be prepared by crosslinking an uncrosslinked vinyl chloride resin. Examples of uncrosslinked vinyl chloride resins that can be used as materials for preparing the (b) crosslinked vinyl chloride resin include homopolymers and vinyl chloride copolymers composed of vinyl chloride monomer units, which are described above as specific examples of the (a) vinyl chloride resin. The method for crosslinking the vinyl chloride resin is not particularly limited, and may include, for example, chemical crosslinking using a known crosslinking agent or crosslinking by irradiation with radiation such as an electron beam.

[0041] The content of the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more, more preferably 1 part by mass or more, even more preferably 2 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 4 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 5 parts by mass or more, and preferably 20 parts by mass or less, more preferably 15 parts by mass or less, even more preferably 12 parts by mass or less, even more preferably 10 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 8 parts by mass or less, per 100 parts by mass of the (a) vinyl chloride resin. If the content of the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or greater than the above-mentioned lower limit per 100 parts by mass of the (a) vinyl chloride resin, the abrasion resistance and demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed can be further improved. On the other hand, if the content of the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or less than the above-mentioned upper limit per 100 parts by mass of the (a) vinyl chloride resin, the demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed can be further improved.

[0042] In the vinyl chloride resin composition, the total content of the vinyl chloride resin fine particles and cross-linked vinyl chloride resin as dusting agents per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin particles as the base material is preferably 2 parts by mass or more, more preferably 5 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 8 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 10 parts by mass or more, and preferably 30 parts by mass or less, more preferably 20 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 16 parts by mass or less. If the total content of the vinyl chloride resin fine particles and cross-linked vinyl chloride resin fine particles as dusting agents per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin particles as the base material in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or greater than the above-mentioned lower limit, the powder flowability of the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved. On the other hand, if the total content of the vinyl chloride resin fine particles and cross-linked vinyl chloride resin fine particles as dusting agents per 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin particles as the base material in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or less than the above-mentioned upper limit, the physical strength of the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed can be improved.

[0043] Furthermore, the mass ratio of vinyl chloride resin fine particles to cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition (vinyl chloride resin fine particles / cross-linked vinyl chloride resin) is preferably 1 / 5 or more, more preferably 2 / 5 or more, and even more preferably 3 / 5 or more, and is preferably 5 / 1 or less, more preferably 5 / 2 or less, and even more preferably 5 / 3 or less. If the mass ratio of vinyl chloride resin fine particles to cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition (vinyl chloride resin fine particles / cross-linked vinyl chloride resin) is within the above-mentioned range, the demoldability of the resulting vinyl chloride resin molded article can be further improved.

[0044] Furthermore, the content of the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more, more preferably 1 part by mass or more, even more preferably 2 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 4 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 5 parts by mass or more, and preferably 20 parts by mass or less, more preferably 15 parts by mass or less, even more preferably 12 parts by mass or less, even more preferably 10 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 7 parts by mass or less, per 100 parts by mass of the (c) polyester-based plasticizer, as described below. If the content of the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or greater than the above-mentioned lower limit per 100 parts by mass of the (c) polyester-based plasticizer, the abrasion resistance and demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed can be further improved. On the other hand, if the content of the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or less than the above-mentioned upper limit per 100 parts by mass of the (c) polyester-based plasticizer, the demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed can be further improved.

[0045] As the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin, a particulate cross-linked vinyl chloride resin is usually used. From the viewpoint of further improving the powder fluidity (particularly high-temperature powder fluidity) of the vinyl chloride resin composition, the (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin preferably contains cross-linked vinyl chloride resin fine particles, and more preferably consists of cross-linked vinyl chloride resin fine particles alone. The (b) cross-linked vinyl chloride resin may contain one or more types of cross-linked vinyl chloride resin fine particles.

[0046] Here, the average particle size of the crosslinked vinyl chloride resin fine particles is usually less than 30 μm, preferably 10 μm or less, more preferably 5 μm or less, preferably 0.1 μm or more, and more preferably 1 μm or more. If the average particle size of the crosslinked vinyl chloride resin fine particles is equal to or greater than the above-mentioned lower limit, the powder flowability of the vinyl chloride resin composition can be further improved, for example, without excessively reducing the size of the crosslinked vinyl chloride resin fine particles used as a dusting agent. Furthermore, if the average particle size of the crosslinked vinyl chloride resin fine particles is equal to or less than the above-mentioned upper limit, the meltability of the vinyl chloride resin composition can be improved, and the surface smoothness of the resulting vinyl chloride resin molded article can be improved.

[0047] <(c) Polyester-based plasticizer> The (c) polyester-based plasticizer is a component that can impart sufficient tensile properties (tensile strength and tensile elongation) to a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition. Furthermore, by using the (c) polyester-based plasticizer as a plasticizer, when a laminate is formed by backing a foamed polyurethane molded article with a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition, the (c) polyester-based plasticizer is unlikely to migrate from the vinyl chloride resin molded article to the foamed polyurethane molded article even at high temperatures, thereby improving the heat shrinkage resistance of the vinyl chloride resin molded article.

[0048] The (c) polyester-based plasticizer is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include polyesters containing structural units derived from adipic acid (adipic acid-based polyesters), polyesters containing structural units derived from sebacic acid (sebacic acid-based polyesters), and polyesters containing structural units derived from phthalic acid (phthalic acid-based polyesters). These polyesters may be used alone or in combination of two or more in any ratio. Among these, from the viewpoint of further improving the heat shrinkage resistance of vinyl chloride resin molded articles, it is preferable to use an adipic acid-based polyester (a polyester containing a structural unit derived from adipic acid) as the (c) polyester-based plasticizer.

[0049] The viscosity of the (c) polyester plasticizer is preferably 500 mPa·s or more, more preferably 1000 mPa·s or more, and is preferably 8000 mPa·s or less, more preferably 5000 mPa·s or less. The "viscosity" can be measured at a temperature of 25°C in accordance with JIS Z8803.

[0050] The content of the (c) polyester-based plasticizer in the vinyl chloride resin composition is preferably 30 parts by mass or more, more preferably 50 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 70 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 90 parts by mass or more, even more preferably 95 parts by mass or more, and preferably 200 parts by mass or less, more preferably 180 parts by mass or less, even more preferably 150 parts by mass or less, even more preferably 130 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 120 parts by mass or less, per 100 parts by mass of the (a) vinyl chloride resin. If the content of the (c) polyester-based plasticizer in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or greater than the above-mentioned lower limit per 100 parts by mass of the (a) vinyl chloride resin, the tensile properties and heat shrinkage resistance of the resulting vinyl chloride resin molded article can be improved. On the other hand, if the content of the (c) polyester-based plasticizer in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or less than the above-mentioned upper limit per 100 parts by mass of the (a) vinyl chloride resin, the abrasion resistance and demoldability of the resulting vinyl chloride resin molded article can be ensured to be sufficiently high.

[0051] <(d) Ether-modified silicone oil> (d) ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value of a predetermined value or more is a component that can impart abrasion resistance and demoldability to a vinyl chloride resin molded article while suppressing the generation of voids in the foamed polyurethane molded article when the foamed polyurethane molded article is laminated on a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition. In particular, by using (d) ether-modified silicone oil in combination with the above-mentioned (b) crosslinked vinyl chloride resin, a vinyl chloride resin molded article formed using the vinyl chloride resin composition can exhibit excellent abrasion resistance and demoldability.

[0052] <<Type>> Here, (d) ether-modified silicone oil is usually obtained by introducing an ether group into at least one of a main chain consisting of a siloxane bond (-Si-O-Si-), a side chain of the main chain, and an end of the main chain. Here, when an ether group is introduced into the main chain, the ether group is block-bonded in the middle of the main chain. Furthermore, when an ether group is introduced into the end, it may be introduced into one end or both ends. Furthermore, (d) ether-modified silicone oil may further have a substituent other than an ether group introduced into the main chain, a side chain of the main chain, and / or an end of the main chain. The (d) ether-modified silicone oil preferably has an ether group introduced at least into the side chain.

[0053] [Ether group] Examples of the ether group include a substituent having one or more chain alkylene oxide structures. Specifically, examples of the ether group include a group represented by the following general formula (2): [ka] [wherein x is a natural number of 1 or more]; a substituent having only a chain ethylene oxide structure (when x is a natural number of 2 or more in formula (2), it is also referred to as a "polyethylene oxide group") represented by the following general formula (3): [ka] [In formula (3), y is a natural number of 1 or more.] A substituent having a chain propylene oxide structure (when y is a natural number of 2 or more in formula (3), it is also referred to as a "polypropylene oxide group") in any proportion; a substituent having, in addition to the chain ethylene oxide structure, any organic structure other than the chain alkylene oxide structure (hereinafter referred to as "R" or "R'") (for example, -R-(C2H4O) x -R': a substituent having the above-mentioned chain alkylene oxide structure, such as the chain ethylene oxide structure and the chain propylene oxide structure, and further having the above-mentioned optional organic structure R, R' (for example, -R-(C2H4O) x (C3H6O) y -R'); etc. Here, for example, the above-mentioned -R-(C2H4O) x -R' and -R-(C2H4O) x (C3H6O) y Any organic structure R and R' in -R' may be present alone.

[0054] In particular, from the viewpoint of further improving the abrasion resistance and demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article while further suppressing the generation of voids in the foamed polyurethane molded article adjacent to the vinyl chloride resin molded article, it is preferable that the ether group have at least a chain ethylene oxide structure, more preferably a chain ethylene oxide structure and a chain propylene oxide structure, and even more preferably a plurality of chain ethylene oxide structures and chain propylene oxide structures, and further from the viewpoint of excellent heat aging resistance, it is even more preferable that the ether group have no unsaturated bond.

On the other hand, if the kinematic viscosity of the (d) ether-modified silicone oil is below the above-mentioned upper limit, the ether-modified silicone oil has excellent handleability, and the demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed can be further improved. In the present invention, the "kinematic viscosity" can be measured in accordance with ASTM D 445-46T at a temperature of 25°C as described in the examples.

On the other hand, when the content of (d) ether-modified silicone oil in the vinyl chloride resin composition is equal to or less than the above upper limit per 100 parts by mass of (a) vinyl chloride resin, for example, even when a vinyl chloride resin molded article is continuously molded, contamination of the surface of a molding die or the like due to an excessive amount of ether-modified silicone oil can be suppressed.

[0083] <Uses of vinyl chloride resin compositions> The vinyl chloride resin composition thus obtained can be suitably used for powder molding, and more suitably used for powder slush molding.

[0084] (Vinyl chloride resin molded body) The vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention is characterized by being obtained by molding the above-mentioned vinyl chloride resin composition by any method. Since the vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention is formed using the above-mentioned vinyl chloride resin composition, it typically contains at least (a) a vinyl chloride resin, (b) a cross-linked vinyl chloride resin, (c) a polyester-based plasticizer, and (d) an ether-modified silicone oil. The vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention has excellent abrasion resistance, and when a laminate is formed by laminating a polyurethane foam molded article on the vinyl chloride resin molded article, the occurrence of voids in the laminated polyurethane foam molded article can be suppressed. Furthermore, the vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention also has excellent demoldability. Therefore, the vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention can be suitably used as an automobile interior material such as the surface of an automobile instrument panel.

[0085] <Method for forming vinyl chloride resin molded body> When a vinyl chloride resin molded article is formed by powder slush molding, the mold temperature during powder slush molding is not particularly limited, but is preferably 200°C or higher, more preferably 220°C or higher, and is preferably 300°C or lower, more preferably 280°C or lower.

[0086] The vinyl chloride resin molded article can be produced by any method, including, but not limited to, the following method. Specifically, the vinyl chloride resin composition of the present invention is sprinkled onto a mold at a temperature within the above range, and the mold is left standing for 5 to 30 seconds. The excess vinyl chloride resin composition is then shaken off, and the mold is then left standing at a given temperature for 30 seconds to 3 minutes. The mold is then cooled to 10 to 60°C, and the resulting vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention is then demolded from the mold. A sheet-like molded article conforming to the shape of the mold is then obtained.

[0087] (Laminate) The laminate of the present invention comprises a polyurethane foam molded article and the vinyl chloride resin molded article described above. The vinyl chloride resin molded article usually constitutes one surface of the laminate. The laminate of the present invention includes the vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention, which has excellent abrasion resistance. Furthermore, because the laminate of the present invention includes the vinyl chloride resin molded article of the present invention, the generation of voids in the foamed polyurethane molded article is suppressed. Therefore, the laminate of the present invention is suitable for use as an automobile interior part, particularly as an automobile interior material forming an automobile instrument panel.

[0088] Here, the method for laminating a polyurethane foam molded body and a vinyl chloride resin molded body is not particularly limited, and the following methods can be used, for example: (1) a method in which a polyurethane foam molded body and a vinyl chloride resin molded body are separately prepared and then bonded together by heat fusion, heat adhesion, or using a known adhesive; (2) a method in which isocyanates and polyols, which are raw materials for the polyurethane foam molded body, are reacted on the vinyl chloride resin molded body to polymerize, and the polyurethane is foamed by a known method, thereby directly forming a polyurethane foam molded body on the vinyl chloride resin molded body; etc. Among these, the latter method (2) is preferred because of its simple process and the ease with which the vinyl chloride resin molded body and the polyurethane foam molded body can be firmly bonded together even when laminates of various shapes are obtained. [Example]

[0089] The present invention will be specifically described below based on examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. In the following description, "%" and "parts" representing amounts are based on mass unless otherwise specified. The demoldability and abrasion resistance of the vinyl chloride resin molded article, and the degree of void formation in the polyurethane foam molded article in the laminate were measured and evaluated by the following methods.

[0090] <Removability> A vinyl chloride resin composition was sprinkled onto a flat mold heated to 220°C to 280°C, and the mixture was left for 5 to 30 seconds. The excess vinyl chloride resin composition was then shaken off, and the mixture was left at a desired temperature for 30 seconds to 3 minutes. The mold was then cooled to 20°C to 25°C, and the resulting vinyl chloride resin molded article was peeled from the flat mold at a speed of 300 mm / min in a direction 90° relative to the flat mold. The peel stress during demolding was measured over time, and the value when the peel stress stabilized was recorded as the measured value (N). The same procedure as above was repeated five times for each Example and Comparative Example, and the average of the measured values ​​was taken as the demolding force. The relative demolding force values ​​of each Example and Comparative Example, with the demolding force value obtained in Comparative Example 1 taken as 1.00, were then calculated. The lower the demolding force, the better the demoldability of the vinyl chloride resin molded article.

[0091] <Wear resistance> The surface slipperiness of the vinyl chloride resin molded article was evaluated by measuring the dynamic friction coefficient as follows. Specifically, a Gakushin Abrasion Tester (RT-200, manufactured by Daiei Scientific Instruments) was used to conduct an abrasion test at 3N x 300 times using cotton cloth as the abrader under a measurement environment of 23°C temperature and 50% relative humidity. The appearance of the vinyl chloride resin molded article was then visually inspected before and after the test and evaluated according to the following criteria. If there is no change in the surface gloss of the vinyl chloride resin molded article before and after the test, the vinyl chloride resin molded article has excellent abrasion resistance. A: There is no change in the surface gloss of the vinyl chloride resin molded product before and after the test. B: The surface gloss of the vinyl chloride resin molded product is stronger after the test than before the test.

[0092] <Degree of void occurrence> The degree of void generation in the foamed polyurethane molding was evaluated as follows. That is, the vinyl chloride resin molded sheet was peeled off from the laminate to prepare only a foamed polyurethane molded body (200 mm × 300 mm × 9 mm), which was used as a sample. The sample was then cut in the short direction at 50 mm intervals (divided into 6 sections), and the state of the cross section was visually confirmed. Specifically, voids with a diameter of 3 mm or more were considered to be voids, and the total number of voids (N1) present in the 6 sections was counted. On the other hand, a foamed polyurethane molded body was produced in the same procedure as in "Formation of Laminate" in Example 1 described below, except that a vinyl chloride resin molded sheet was not placed in the mold, and the foamed polyurethane molded body was also divided into six sections in the same manner as above, and the total number of voids (NO) present in the six cross sections was counted. Note that NO does not refer to voids originating from the vinyl chloride resin molded body, but rather to voids originating from the operating procedures when forming the foamed polyurethane molded body. Then, for each sample, the void occurrence rate (%) was calculated as N1 / N0 × 100, with N0 being the standard (100%), and the degree of void occurrence was evaluated according to the following criteria: The lower the void occurrence rate (closer to 100%), the more void occurrence is suppressed in the foamed polyurethane molded product laminated on the vinyl chloride resin molded product. A: The rate of voids is less than 120% B: The rate of void occurrence is 120% or more but less than 150% C: Void occurrence rate is 150% or more If the rate of void occurrence is less than 100%, it is considered a measurement error and is included in the above A rating.

[0093] Example 1 <Preparation of vinyl chloride resin composition> Of the ingredients listed in Table 1, all but the plasticizers (polyester plasticizer and epoxidized soybean oil) and the vinyl chloride resin fine particles (dusting agent) were placed in a Henschel mixer and mixed. When the temperature of the mixture reached 80°C, all of the plasticizer was added, and the mixture was allowed to dry up (referring to the state in which the plasticizer was absorbed into the vinyl chloride resin particles, which are vinyl chloride resin, and the mixture became smooth). When the dried-up mixture was cooled to a temperature of 70°C or below, the vinyl chloride resin fine particles (dusting agent) were added, and a vinyl chloride resin composition was prepared. The vinyl chloride resin composition thus obtained was used to evaluate the demoldability of vinyl chloride resin molded articles, and the results are shown in Table 1. <Formation of vinyl chloride resin molded body> The obtained vinyl chloride resin composition was sprinkled onto a textured mold heated to a temperature of 250°C, left to melt for a desired period of time, and then the excess vinyl chloride resin composition was shaken off. The textured mold onto which the vinyl chloride resin composition had been sprinkled was then placed in an oven set to a temperature of 200°C, and 60 seconds after being placed thereon, the textured mold was cooled with cooling water. When the mold temperature had cooled to 40°C, a vinyl chloride resin molded sheet measuring 145 mm x 175 mm x 1 mm was removed from the mold as a vinyl chloride resin molded product. The resulting vinyl chloride resin composition was evaluated for abrasion resistance, and the results are shown in Table 1. <Formation of laminate> The obtained vinyl chloride resin molded sheet was cut into a piece of 100 mm x 100 mm, and two of the cut vinyl chloride resin molded sheets were placed in a 200 mm x 300 mm x 10 mm mold so as not to overlap, with the grained side facing down. Separately, a polyol mixture consisting of 50 parts by weight of a propylene oxide-ethylene oxide (PO-EO) block adduct of propylene glycol (hydroxyl value 28, terminal EO unit content = 10%, internal EO unit content = 4%), 50 parts by weight of a PO-EO block adduct of glycerin (hydroxyl value 21, terminal EO unit content = 14%), 2.5 parts by weight of water, 0.2 parts by weight of an ethylene glycol solution of triethylenediamine (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation, trade name: "TEDA-L33"), 1.2 parts by weight of triethanolamine, 0.5 parts by weight of triethylamine, and 0.5 parts by weight of a foam stabilizer (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., trade name: "F-122") was mixed with polymethylene polyphenylene polyisocyanate (polymeric MDI) in a ratio such that the index was 98 to prepare a mixed solution. The prepared mixed solution was then poured onto two vinyl chloride resin molding sheets placed in the mold as described above. The mold was then sealed by covering it with a 348mm x 255mm x 10mm aluminum plate. Five minutes after sealing, a laminate consisting of a 1mm thick vinyl chloride resin sheet backed by a polyurethane foam was removed from the mold. Immediately afterwards, the extent of voids in the polyurethane foam in the laminate was measured using the method described above. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0094] (Examples 2 to 6, Comparative Examples 1 to 6) Vinyl chloride resin compositions, vinyl chloride resin molded articles, and laminates were prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the types and / or amounts of each component used in preparing the vinyl chloride resin compositions were changed as shown in Table 1.

[0097] Table 1 shows that by using a vinyl chloride resin composition containing a vinyl chloride resin, a cross-linked vinyl chloride resin, a polyester-based plasticizer, and an ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value of a predetermined value or more, it is possible to form a vinyl chloride resin molded article that has excellent abrasion resistance and can suppress the generation of voids in the laminated foamed polyurethane molded article. On the other hand, when the vinyl chloride resin composition of Comparative Example 5, which does not contain either cross-linked vinyl chloride resin or ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value of a predetermined value or higher, is used, it is found that the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed has poor abrasion resistance. It is also found that when the vinyl chloride resin composition of Comparative Example 6, which contains an ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value equal to or greater than a predetermined value but does not contain a cross-linked vinyl chloride resin, is used, the vinyl chloride resin molded article formed has poor abrasion resistance. Furthermore, when the vinyl chloride resin compositions of Comparative Examples 1 and 4, which contain cross-linked vinyl chloride resin but do not contain ether-modified silicone oil with an HLB value of a predetermined value or higher, are used, the vinyl chloride resin molded articles formed also have poor abrasion resistance. Furthermore, when the vinyl chloride resin compositions of Comparative Examples 2 and 3, which contain a modified silicone oil having an HLB value less than a predetermined value instead of an ether-modified silicone oil having an HLB value equal to or greater than a predetermined value and further contain a cross-linked vinyl chloride resin, are used, it is found that the vinyl chloride compositions formed are unable to sufficiently suppress the generation of voids in the laminated foamed polyurethane molding. [Industrial Applicability]
