Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a fingerprint-resistant molded article formed from a resin component. [Background technology]
[0002] Polycarbonate, with its high transparency and excellent heat resistance, is widely used in optical components, electrical and electronic equipment, and automotive applications. Furthermore, to address the recent expansion of application fields, development of copolymer polycarbonates, in which various copolymerizable monomer units are introduced into common monomer raw materials such as bisphenol A (hereinafter abbreviated as BPA), is underway. In particular, polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymers composed of BPA and polyorganosiloxane comonomers are known to combine high levels of transparency, heat resistance, and impact resistance, and many publications have described them (Patent Documents 1 to 9). On the other hand, many thermoplastic resins, including polycarbonate resin, have a high affinity for fingerprints, which are primarily composed of oleic acid, due to their high lipophilicity, making them prone to fingerprints. Therefore, in applications where fingerprints need to be avoided, a countermeasure is taken by applying an anti-fingerprint coating to the surface of thermoplastic resin molded products. However, the additional process steps and reduced yields associated with coatings lead to increased costs. Therefore, there is a demand for a thermoplastic resin molded article that exhibits fingerprint resistance without the need for a coating, but no polycarbonate resin molded article that has fingerprint resistance and meets this requirement has yet been provided.

[0075] (Dihydroxy Compound Component of Polyorganosiloxane Block (A-2)) The dihydroxy compound used as the raw material for the polyorganosiloxane block (A-2) is a polyorganosiloxane having a specific average chain length. Specifically, a raw material represented by the following general formula [5], hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II), is used.
[0076] [ka]
[0077] (In the formula, R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , R 8 , R 9 , R 10 , p, q and X are the same as those in the general formula [3] above.) In the general formula [5], the average chain length p+q is preferably 30 to 100, more preferably 30 to 90, and even more preferably 30 to 70. If it is less than 30, sufficient impact resistance is not achieved, and if it is greater than the upper limit, the appearance deteriorates (color unevenness, poor peeling). To satisfy this specific chain length range, two or more different hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) raw materials having average chain lengths p+q may be mixed to prepare the polyorganosiloxane. In this case, polyorganosiloxane (B-1) having an average chain length p+q of 1 or more but less than 60 and polyorganosiloxane (B-2) having an average chain length p+q of 60 or more but less than 200 are used as raw materials. The polyorganosiloxane raw material can be prepared by mixing appropriate hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane raw materials together, or by premixing polyorganosiloxane precursors having an appropriate average chain length before the end is hydroxyaryl-modified, and then modifying the end with hydroxyaryl. The average chain length (p + q) of the polyorganosiloxane blocks in the PC-POS copolymer obtained by reacting the polyorganosiloxane raw material with a dihydric phenol and a polycarbonate precursor is, as described above, preferably 30 to 100, more preferably 30 to 90, and even more preferably 30 to 70. The average chain length (p + q) is calculated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurement.
[0078] When the polyorganosiloxane (B-1) and the polyorganosiloxane (B-2) are mixed, the weight ratio of (B-1):(B-2) is preferably 1:99 to 99:1, and more preferably 10:90 to 90:10.
[0079] It is more preferable to use, as the polyorganosiloxane raw material, polyorganosiloxane (C) obtained by previously blending the above-mentioned polyorganosiloxanes (B-1) and (B-2). The blending ratio is preferably 1:99 to 99:1 by weight, similar to the above-mentioned (B-1):(B-2) weight ratio, and more preferably 10:90 to 90:10.
[0080] When blended in advance, the lower limit of the average chain length p + q of the polyorganosiloxane (B-1) is preferably 1 or more, more preferably 20 or more, and even more preferably 30 or more, and the upper limit is preferably less than 60, more preferably less than 50, and even more preferably less than 45. The lower limit of the average chain length p + q of the polyorganosiloxane (B-2) is preferably 60 or more, more preferably 70 or more, and even more preferably 90 or more, and the upper limit is preferably 200 or less, more preferably 100 or less. As the hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) represented by the general formula [5], for example, the following compounds are preferably used.
[0081] [ka]
[0082] The hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) is a phenol having an olefinic unsaturated carbon-carbon bond, and is preferably vinylphenol, 2-allylphenol, isopropenylphenol, or 2-methoxy-4-allylphenol, and is easily produced by subjecting the end of a polyorganosiloxane chain having a predetermined degree of polymerization to a hydrosilylation reaction. Among these, (2-allylphenol)-terminated polyorganosiloxane and (2-methoxy-4-allylphenol)-terminated polyorganosiloxane are preferred, and (2-allylphenol)-terminated polydimethylsiloxane and (2-methoxy-4-allylphenol)-terminated polydimethylsiloxane are particularly preferred.
[0083] <Method for producing polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymer> The polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymer of the present invention can be produced by the following steps. (PC-POS copolymer manufacturing process) The process is a process of reacting a dihydric phenol (I) represented by the above formula [4] with phosgene in a mixed solution of a water-insoluble organic solvent and an alkaline aqueous solution to prepare a solution containing a carbonate oligomer having a terminal chloroformate group.
[0084] As described above, the method for producing the PC-POS copolymer used in the present invention uses a polyorganosiloxane having a specific average chain length as a raw material, and the hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) may be one type or two or more types. Specifically, a raw material represented by the hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) represented by the general formula [5] and having an average chain length p + q of 30 to 100 is used. In addition, two or more different types of hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) raw materials having an average chain length p + q may be mixed and used to satisfy such a specific chain length range. In this case, it can be prepared using a polyorganosiloxane (B-1) having an average chain length p + q of 1 or more and less than 60 and a polyorganosiloxane (B-2) having an average chain length p + q of 60 or more and 200 or less as raw materials, or it can be prepared by pre-mixing polyorganosiloxane precursors having an appropriate average chain length before the terminals are hydroxyaryl-modified, and then using a raw material obtained by modifying the terminals with hydroxyaryl. Furthermore, before reacting with the carbonate precursor and the dihydric phenol, the polyorganosiloxane (B-1) and the polyorganosiloxane (B-2) can be pre-blended, or they can be added to the reaction solution in parallel without being pre-blended, or (B-1) and (B-2) can be divided and added sequentially to the reaction solution to react with the carbonate precursor and the dihydric phenol. More preferably, the polyorganosiloxane (B-1) is added to the reaction solution, and then the polyorganosiloxane (B-2) is added to the reaction solution to react with the carbonate precursor and dihydric phenol. This is desirable from the viewpoint of efficiency and cost effectiveness due to simplified manufacturing process equipment. The weight ratio of the polyorganosiloxanes (B-1) and (B-2) used as raw materials is as described above, and the carbonate precursor and dihydric phenol will be described later.
[0085] In the interfacial polycondensation method for obtaining the PC-POS copolymer used in the present invention, the amount of the water-insoluble organic solvent per mole of the total amount of the dihydric phenols represented by the general formulas [4] and [5] is preferably 8 moles or more and less than 16 moles. Here, the total amount of dihydric phenols means the total amount of bisphenols and polyorganosiloxane monomers, which are raw materials for polycarbonate.
[0086] The amount of the insoluble organic solvent is the total amount used up to the point at which the catalyst is added and the polycondensation reaction is started, and is the total amount of the amount used in producing the polycarbonate oligomer, the amount used to dissolve the polyorganosiloxane monomer and the terminal terminator, and the amount added to adjust the emulsified state during the interfacial polycondensation reaction.
[0087] In the interfacial polycondensation method for obtaining the PC-POS copolymer used in the present invention, if the amount of water-insoluble organic solvent per mole of the total amount of dihydric phenols represented by general formulas [4] and [5] is less than the lower limit, the polymer quality will deteriorate due to poor emulsion during polymerization, and productivity will decrease due to excessively high solution viscosity. If the amount exceeds the upper limit, the poor emulsion state makes it difficult to introduce polyorganosiloxane blocks into the copolymer, resulting in poor appearance. Furthermore, a water-insoluble organic solvent may be added immediately after the reaction between the carbonate precursor, dihydric phenol, and polyorganosiloxane proceeds. Specifically, when the proportion of unreacted polyorganosiloxane in the reaction solution reaches 10% or less of the polyorganosiloxane used, it is desirable to add at least 2 moles of water-insoluble organic solvent per mole of the total amount of dihydric phenols represented by general formulas [4] and [5]. This ensures sufficient reaction progress while also reducing the risk of precipitation of polymer components due to high concentration.
[0088] In addition, other comonomers than the dihydric phenol (I) and hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) can be used in combination in an amount of up to 10% by weight based on the total weight of the copolymer, provided that this does not interfere with the production method of the present invention.
[0089] In the production method of the present invention, a mixed solution containing an oligomer having a terminal chloroformate group is prepared in advance by reacting a dihydric phenol (I) with a carbonate ester-forming compound in a mixed solution of a water-insoluble organic solvent and an alkaline aqueous solution.
[0090] In producing an oligomer of the dihydric phenol (I), the entire amount of the dihydric phenol (I) used in the method of the present invention may be converted into an oligomer at once, or a part of the oligomer may be added as a post-added monomer as a reaction raw material to the interfacial polycondensation reaction in the subsequent stage. The post-added monomer is added to rapidly proceed with the polycondensation reaction in the subsequent stage, and there is no need to add it if it is not necessary. The method for this oligomer formation reaction is not particularly limited, but it is usually preferable to carry out the reaction in a solvent in the presence of an acid binder.
[0091] The proportion of the carbonate ester-forming compound used may be adjusted appropriately in consideration of the stoichiometric ratio (equivalents) of the reaction. When a gaseous carbonate ester-forming compound such as phosgene is used, it is preferable to blow it into the reaction system.
[0092] Examples of the acid binder include alkali metal hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, alkali metal carbonates such as sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate, organic bases such as pyridine, and mixtures of these.
[0093] The proportion of the acid binder used may be determined appropriately in consideration of the stoichiometric ratio (equivalents) of the reaction, as described above. Specifically, it is preferable to use 2 equivalents or a slight excess of the acid binder relative to the number of moles of the dihydric phenol (I) used to form the oligomer (usually 1 mole corresponds to 2 equivalents).
[0094] The solvent may be any of various inert solvents used in the production of known polycarbonates, either singly or in combination. Typical examples include hydrocarbon solvents such as xylene, and halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as methylene chloride and chlorobenzene. Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as methylene chloride are particularly preferred.
[0095] The reaction pressure for oligomer formation is not particularly limited and may be normal, elevated, or reduced pressure, but it is usually advantageous to carry out the reaction under normal pressure. The reaction temperature is selected from the range of -20 to 50°C, and since heat is often generated during polymerization, water or ice cooling is desirable. The reaction time depends on other conditions and cannot be specified in general, but is usually 0.2 to 10 hours. The pH range of the oligomer formation reaction is the same as that of known interfacial reactions, and the pH is always adjusted to 10 or higher.
[0096] In the present invention, after obtaining a mixed solution containing an oligomer of a dihydric phenol (I) having terminal chloroformate groups, the hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) is added to the dihydric phenol (I) while stirring the mixed solution, and the hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) and the oligomer are subjected to interfacial polycondensation to obtain a polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymer.
[0097] When carrying out the interfacial polycondensation reaction, an acid binder may be added appropriately taking into account the stoichiometric ratio (equivalent) of the reaction. Examples of acid binders include alkali metal hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, alkali metal carbonates such as sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate, organic bases such as pyridine, and mixtures thereof. Specifically, when the hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) used or a portion of the dihydric phenol (I) as described above is added as a post-added monomer to this reaction stage, it is preferable to use 2 equivalents or more of alkali relative to the total moles of the post-added dihydric phenol (I) and hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) (usually 1 mole corresponds to 2 equivalents).
[0098] The polycondensation by interfacial polycondensation reaction between the oligomer of the dihydric phenol (I) and the hydroxyaryl-terminated polyorganosiloxane (II) is carried out by vigorously stirring the above mixture.
[0099] In such polymerization reactions, a terminal terminator or a molecular weight modifier is usually used. Examples of terminal terminators include compounds having a monovalent phenolic hydroxyl group, such as ordinary phenol, p-tert-butylphenol, p-cumylphenol, tribromophenol, etc., as well as long-chain alkylphenols, aliphatic carboxylic acid chlorides, aliphatic carboxylic acids, hydroxybenzoic acid alkyl esters, hydroxyphenyl alkyl acid esters, and alkyl ether phenols. The amount used is in the range of 100 to 0.5 mol, preferably 50 to 2 mol, per 100 mol of the total dihydric phenol compounds used, and it is of course possible to use two or more compounds in combination.
[0100] To accelerate the polycondensation reaction, a catalyst such as a tertiary amine such as triethylamine or a quaternary ammonium salt may be added.
[0101] The reaction time for this polymerization reaction must be relatively long to reduce unreacted polyorganosiloxane blocks. It is preferably 30 minutes or more, more preferably 50 minutes or more. On the other hand, since prolonged stirring of the reaction solution can cause polymer precipitation, it is preferably 180 minutes or less, more preferably 90 minutes or less. If desired, a small amount of an antioxidant such as sodium sulfite or hydrosulfide may be added.
[0102] The PC-POS copolymer used in the present invention can be converted into a branched polycarbonate by using a branching agent in combination with the above-mentioned dihydric phenol compound. Examples of trifunctional or higher polyfunctional aromatic compounds used in such branched polycarbonate resins include phloroglucin, phloroglucside, 4,6-dimethyl-2,4,6-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)heptene-2,2,4,6-trimethyl-2,4,6-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)heptane, 1,3,5-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)benzene, 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane, 1,1,1-tris(3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane, 2,6-bis(2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzyl)-4-methylphenol, 4-[4-[1,1-bis(4- Examples of the 4-hydroxyphenyl ether include trisphenols such as {4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]benzene}-α,α-dimethylbenzylphenol, tetra(4-hydroxyphenyl)methane, bis(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ketone, 1,4-bis(4,4-dihydroxytriphenylmethyl)benzene, trimellitic acid, pyromellitic acid, benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid, and acid chlorides thereof. Among these, 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane and 1,1,1-tris(3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane are preferred, and 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane is particularly preferred.
[0103] The reaction pressure can be reduced, normal, or increased, but is usually preferably normal pressure or the inherent pressure of the reaction system. The reaction temperature is selected from the range of -20 to 50°C, and in many cases, water or ice cooling is desirable because heat is generated during polymerization. The reaction time cannot be generally determined because it varies depending on other conditions such as the reaction temperature, but is usually 0.5 to 10 hours.
[0104] In some cases, the obtained polycarbonate copolymer may be subjected to a suitable physical treatment (mixing, fractionation, etc.) and / or chemical treatment (polymer reaction, crosslinking treatment, partial decomposition treatment, etc.) to obtain a desired reduced viscosity [η SP It can also be obtained as a polycarbonate copolymer of [(2-hydroxybenzoyl)-2-propanol / c].
[0105] The resulting reaction product (crude product) can be subjected to various post-treatments such as known separation and purification methods, and recovered as a polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymer of the desired purity (degree of purification).
[0106] Furthermore, the polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymer used in the present invention can be blended with various flame retardants, reinforcing fillers, and additives that are usually blended with polycarbonate resins, as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired.
[0107] The resin component containing the polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymer of the present invention can be pelletized by melt-kneading using an extruder such as a single-screw extruder or a twin-screw extruder.
[0108] Furthermore, the resin component of the present invention may further contain other thermoplastic resins (e.g., polyarylate resins, fluororesins, polyester resins, etc.), antioxidants (e.g., hindered phenol compounds, etc.), impact modifiers, ultraviolet absorbers, light stabilizers, mold release agents, lubricants, colorants, inorganic fillers (talc, mica, wollastonite, kaolin, etc.), etc., within the scope of the present invention.
[0109] The molded articles of the present invention can be produced by injection molding the pellets produced as described above. Furthermore, it is also possible to directly produce sheets, films, profile extrusion molded articles, direct blow molded articles, and injection molded articles from the resin components melt-kneaded in an extruder without going through the pelletizing process.
[0110] Injection molding can be used to obtain resin parts for display materials using not only conventional molding methods but also injection compression molding, injection press molding, gas-assisted injection molding, foam molding (including injection of supercritical fluids), insert molding, in-mold coating molding, heat-insulating mold molding, rapid heating and cooling mold molding, two-color molding, sandwich molding, and ultra-high-speed injection molding, depending on the purpose. The advantages of these various molding methods are already widely known. Furthermore, molding can be performed using either a cold runner system or a hot runner system.
[0111] The molded article of the present invention may be used in the form of various profile extrusion molded articles, sheets, films, etc. by extrusion molding. Sheets and films can also be molded using inflation, calendaring, casting, etc. Furthermore, by subjecting the material to a specific stretching operation, it can also be molded into heat-shrinkable tubing. The molded article of the present invention can also be obtained by rotational molding, blow molding, etc.
[0112] Furthermore, in the present invention, molded articles made of polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymers can be subjected to various surface treatments. Surface treatments here refer to the formation of a new layer on the surface of a resin molded article, such as vapor deposition (physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition, etc.), plating (electroplating, electroless plating, hot-dip plating, etc.), painting, coating, and printing, and methods commonly used for polycarbonate resins can be applied. Specific examples of surface treatments include hard coating, water-repellent and oil-repellent coating, ultraviolet-absorbing coating, infrared-absorbing coating, and metallizing (vapor deposition, etc.).

Ductile fracture is suitable for use in resin parts, as the material is less susceptible to breakage due to a drop impact.

The shear viscosity is preferably 750 Pa·S or less, more preferably 550 Pa·S or less, even more preferably 350 Pa·S or less, and particularly preferably 250 Pa·S or less, at a furnace temperature of 300°C and a shear rate of 1220 sec-1, as measured in accordance with ISO 11443 (JIS K 7199) using a capillary rheometer (Capillograph 1D, manufactured by Toyo Seiki Seisaku-sho, Ltd.) and a Toyo Seiki Seisaku-sho Capillary Model EF (diameter: 1.0 mm, length: 10.0 mm, L / D: 10).

[Example]
[0130] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to examples, but these examples are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, parts in the examples are parts by weight and % is % by weight. Evaluations were made according to the following methods.
[0131] (1) Viscosity average molecular weight (Mv) The specific viscosity (ηSP) calculated by the following formula was measured using an Ostwald viscometer from a solution prepared by dissolving 0.7 g of PC-POS copolymer or resin component in 100 ml of methylene chloride at 20°C. Specific viscosity (ηSP)=(t-t0) / t0 [t0 is the number of seconds that methylene chloride falls, and t is the number of seconds that the sample solution falls] The viscosity average molecular weight Mv is calculated from the determined specific viscosity (ηSP) using the following formula. ηSP / c=[η]+0.45×[η] 2 c (where [η] is the intrinsic viscosity) [η]=1.23×10 -4 Mv 0.83 c=0.7
