Abstract
Description
Polycarbonate resin composition
[0001] The present invention relates to a polycarbonate resin composition and a molded article thereof.
[0002] Polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymers (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as "PC-POS copolymers") have attracted attention due to their excellent properties, such as high impact resistance, chemical resistance, and flame retardancy. Therefore, they are expected to be widely used in various fields, including electrical and electronic equipment and the automotive industry. In particular, they are being used extensively in housings for mobile phones, mobile personal computers, digital cameras, video cameras, power tools, and other everyday items. A typical polycarbonate typically used is a homopolycarbonate made using 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane (commonly known as bisphenol A) as the dihydric phenol raw material. To improve the physical properties of this homopolycarbonate, such as flame retardancy and impact resistance, a polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymer using polyorganosiloxane as a copolymerization monomer is known (Patent Document 1). To improve the impact resistance of a polycarbonate-based resin composition, particularly at low temperatures, a method using a long-chain polyorganosiloxane is known, as disclosed in Patent Document 2. However, this method suffers from the problem of reduced transparency. Conversely, to further improve the transparency of a polycarbonate-based resin composition, a method using a relatively short-chain polyorganosiloxane is known (see Patent Documents 3 and 4). However, this method suffers from the problem of reduced impact resistance. Patent Document 5 attempts to improve transparency while maintaining excellent impact resistance by blending two types of polycarbonate-polyorganosiloxane copolymers with different light transmittances, but the resulting transparency was not sufficient.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment of the PC-POS copolymer (S-1), the main chain of the PC-POS copolymer (S-1) consists solely of the polycarbonate block (A-1), the polyorganosiloxane block (A-2), and, if necessary, a terminal structure derived from a terminal terminator described below.

[0058]
[0059] - Method for Producing Polycarbonate-Polyorganosiloxane Copolymer (S-1) The PC-POS copolymer (S-1) can be produced by known production methods such as interfacial polymerization (phosgene method), pyridine method, and transesterification method. In particular, when interfacial polymerization is employed, the process of separating the organic phase containing the PC-POS copolymer from the aqueous phase containing unreacted materials, catalyst residues, and the like is easy, and the organic phase containing the PC-POS copolymer and the aqueous phase are easily separated in each washing step, such as alkali washing, acid washing, and pure water washing. Therefore, the PC-POS copolymer can be obtained efficiently. For example, the method described in JP 2014-80462 A can be used as a method for producing the PC-POS copolymer.
[0060] In the interfacial polymerization method (phosgene method), for example, a polycarbonate oligomer is prepared in advance by polymerizing a dihydric phenol compound with a carbonate precursor such as phosgene, and then the polycarbonate oligomer, polyorganosiloxane, and optionally a dihydric phenol compound are polymerized to produce the PC-POS copolymer (S-1). Specifically, the polycarbonate oligomer and polyorganosiloxane prepared in advance, which will be described later, are dissolved in a water-insoluble organic solvent (e.g., methylene chloride), and an alkaline compound aqueous solution (e.g., sodium hydroxide aqueous solution) of a dihydric phenol compound (e.g., bisphenol A) is added. The copolymer can be produced by an interfacial polycondensation reaction using a tertiary amine (e.g., triethylamine) or a quaternary ammonium salt (e.g., trimethylbenzylammonium chloride) as a polymerization catalyst in the presence of a terminal terminator (a monohydric phenol such as p-tert-butylphenol). The PC-POS copolymer (S-1) can also be produced by copolymerizing, for example, a polyorganosiloxane, a dihydric phenol compound, and phosgene, a carbonate ester, or a chloroformate.
[0061] As the polyorganosiloxane used as the raw material, those represented by the following general formula (1), (2) and / or (3) can be used.
[0062]

Z represents a hydrogen atom or a halogen atom, and multiple Zs may be the same or different. For example, polyorganosiloxanes represented by general formula (1) include compounds of the following general formulas (1-1) to (1-11).
[0064]
[0065] In the above general formulas (1-1) to (1-11), R 3 ~R 6 , n-1 and R 8is the same as above, and the preferred ones are also the same. c represents a positive integer, usually an integer of 1 to 6. Among these, from the viewpoint of ease of polymerization of polyorganosiloxane, phenol-modified polyorganosiloxane represented by the above general formula (1-1) is preferred. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of ease of availability, α,ω-bis[3-(o-hydroxyphenyl)propyl]polydimethylsiloxane, which is one of the compounds represented by the above general formula (1-2), and α,ω-bis[3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)propyl]polydimethylsiloxane, which is one of the compounds represented by the above general formula (1-3), are preferred.
[0066] Alternatively, the polyorganosiloxane raw material may be one having the following general formula (4):
[0067]
[0068] [In the formula, R 3 , R 4 , r and m are the same as above.]
[0069] It is preferable not to use polyorganosiloxanes represented by the following general formula (5) or (6) as the raw material polyorganosiloxane.

[0072]
[0073] [In the formula, m is the same as defined above.]
[0074] The method for producing the polyorganosiloxane is not particularly limited. For example, according to the method described in JP-A-11-217390, cyclotrisiloxane and disiloxane are reacted in the presence of an acidic catalyst to synthesize an α,ω-dihydrogenorganopentasiloxane, and then a phenolic compound (e.g., 2-allylphenol, 4-allylphenol, eugenol, 2-propenylphenol, etc.) is added to the α,ω-dihydrogenorganopentasiloxane in the presence of a hydrosilylation catalyst to produce a crude polyorganosiloxane. According to the method described in Japanese Patent No. 2662310, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and tetramethyldisiloxane are reacted in the presence of sulfuric acid (an acidic catalyst), and the resulting α,ω-dihydrogenorganopolysiloxane is subjected to an addition reaction with a phenolic compound or the like in the presence of a hydrosilylation catalyst, as described above, to obtain a crude polyorganosiloxane. The α,ω-dihydrogenorganopolysiloxane can be used by adjusting the chain length n appropriately depending on the polymerization conditions, or a commercially available α,ω-dihydrogenorganopolysiloxane can be used. Specifically, the α,ω-dihydrogenorganopolysiloxane described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2016-098292 can be used.
[0075] Polycarbonate oligomers can be produced by reacting a dihydric phenol compound with a carbonate precursor such as phosgene or triphosgene in an organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chlorobenzene, or chloroform. When producing a polycarbonate oligomer using a transesterification method, it can also be produced by reacting a dihydric phenol compound with a carbonate precursor such as diphenyl carbonate.

[0114] In a preferred embodiment of the polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention, domains (d) containing the polyorganosiloxane blocks (A-2) are present in a matrix primarily composed of the aromatic polycarbonate resin (S-2). The normalized variance of the average domain size of the domains (d) is preferably 40% or less, more preferably 20% or less, and even more preferably 18% or less. The average domain size and normalized variance of the domains (d) can be evaluated by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) according to the description in JP 2011-102364 A. The average domain size refers to the number average of the sizes of the individual domains (d). The normalized variance refers to a parameter obtained by normalizing the spread of the particle size distribution by the average domain size. Specifically, it is the value obtained by normalizing the variance of the size of the domains (d) by the average domain size, and is expressed by the following formula (X): Normalized variance (%) = σ / D AV (X) [wherein σ represents the standard deviation of the domain size of the domain (d), and D AVrepresents the average domain size.] "Average domain size" and "normalized variance" refer to measurements obtained by small-angle X-ray scattering using a 1.0 mm-thick molded article formed by injection molding. Specifically, using a three-level injection-molded plate (width 50 mm, length 90 mm, thicknesses from the gate side of 3.0 mm (length 20 mm), 2.0 mm (length 45 mm), and 1.0 mm (length 25 mm), with a surface arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) of 0.03 μm), the average size and particle size distribution (normalized variance) of polydiorganosiloxane domains were measured by small-angle X-ray scattering at the intersections 5 mm from the end and 5 mm from the side of the 1.0 mm-thick section.

[0122] <Production Example 1: Production of Polycarbonate-Polyorganosiloxane Copolymer (S-1-1) (PC-PDMS (S-1-1))> (Step 1: Production of Polycarbonate Oligomer) Sodium dithionite was added to a 5.6% by mass aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide so that the concentration was 2000 ppm relative to the bisphenol A (BPA) to be dissolved later. BPA was dissolved in this so that the BPA concentration was 13.5% by mass, and an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution of BPA was prepared. This aqueous sodium hydroxide solution of BPA was continuously passed through a tubular reactor with an inner diameter of 6 mm and a tube length of 30 m at flow rates of 40 L / hr, methylene chloride at 15 L / hr, and phosgene at 4.0 kg / hr. The tubular reactor had a jacket, and cooling water was passed through the jacket to maintain the temperature of the reaction solution at 40 ° C. or less. The reaction solution leaving the tubular reactor was continuously introduced into a 40 L baffled tank reactor equipped with swept-back blades, and a reaction was carried out by adding an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution of BPA at a flow rate of 2.8 L / hr, a 25% by mass aqueous sodium hydroxide solution at a flow rate of 0.07 L / hr, water at a flow rate of 17 L / hr, and a 1% by mass aqueous triethylamine solution at a flow rate of 0.64 L / hr. The reaction solution overflowing from the tank reactor was continuously withdrawn and allowed to stand, allowing the aqueous phase to be separated and removed, and the methylene chloride phase to be collected. The polycarbonate oligomer thus obtained had a concentration of 341 g / L and a chloroformate group concentration of 0.71 mol / L.
[0123] (Step 2: Production of PC-PDMS) A 50 L tank-type reactor equipped with a baffle, a paddle-type stirring blade, and a cooling jacket was charged with 15 L (i) of the polycarbonate oligomer solution (PCO) produced in the above Production Example, 8.6 L (ii) of methylene chloride (MC), a solution of 380 g (iv) of o-allylphenol-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) having an average chain length n of 37 (iii) dissolved in 2 L of methylene chloride (v), and 11.2 mL (vi) of triethylamine (TEA). To this was added an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (a solution of 170 g (vii) of sodium hydroxide in 2 L of pure water (viii)) with stirring, and the polycarbonate oligomer and the allylphenol-terminated PDMS were reacted for 20 minutes. This polymerization solution was mixed with a solution of p-tert-butylphenol (PTBP) in methylene chloride (PTBP 146.8 g (ix) dissolved in methylene chloride 0.5 L (x)), a sodium hydroxide solution of bisphenol A (sodium hydroxide 562 g (xi) and sodium dithionite (Na 2 S 2 O 41.7 g (xii) of bisphenol A (xii) dissolved in 8.2 L (xiii) of purified water was added to an aqueous solution containing 826 g (xiv) of bisphenol A, and the resulting solution was polymerized for 40 minutes. 10 L (xv) of methylene chloride was added for dilution and the mixture was stirred for 20 minutes. The mixture was then separated into an organic phase containing polycarbonate-polydimethylsiloxane copolymer (PC-PDMS) and an aqueous phase containing excess bisphenol A and sodium hydroxide, and the organic phase was isolated. The resulting methylene chloride solution of PC-PDMS was washed sequentially with a 15% by volume solution of 0.03 mol / L sodium hydroxide and 0.2 mol / L hydrochloric acid, and then repeatedly washed with pure water until the electrical conductivity of the aqueous phase after washing was 5 μS / cm or less. The methylene chloride solution of PC-POS copolymer obtained by washing was concentrated and pulverized, and the resulting flakes were dried at 120°C under reduced pressure to produce PC-PDMS (S-1-1). The content of polyorganosiloxane block (A-2) determined by NMR of the obtained PC-PDMS (S-1-1) was 6.0% by mass, the average chain length of polyorganosiloxane block (A-2) was 37, and the viscosity average molecular weight Mv was 17,700.
