Description

Curable resin composition for stereolithography, cured product, and three-dimensional object

[0001] The present invention relates to a curable resin composition for stereolithography, a cured product of the composition, and a three-dimensional object made of the cured product.

[0002] In recent years, optical 3D modeling (stereolithography) has been used as a method for producing resin molded products. This method involves selectively polymerizing and curing a curable resin composition with active energy rays, such as an ultraviolet laser, based on three-dimensional shape data designed using a three-dimensional design system, such as 3D CAD, to produce a three-dimensional object. Because optical 3D modeling can handle complex shapes that are difficult to produce using cutting, has a short production time, and is easy to handle, it has come to be widely used for the production of not only resin molded products but also prototype models of industrial products. Accordingly, various curable resin compositions containing polymerizable monomers used in optical 3D modeling have been developed.

[0003] Curable resin compositions used in such optical three-dimensional modeling methods are required not only to be capable of three-dimensional modeling, but also to provide heat resistance and flame retardancy to the three-dimensionally modeled objects, particularly for electric and electronic components, automobile components, furniture, home appliance components, etc. As a method for imparting such heat resistance and flame retardancy, for example, a method using a polymerizable composition containing a liquid photopolymerizable compound, a flame retardant, and a flame retardant protective agent, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 below, is known.

[0004] International Publication No. 2019 / 203134

[0005] The present inventors have studied the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 and found that there is a problem in that the concentration of reactive functional groups in the polymerizable composition is low, and sufficient heat resistance cannot be achieved in the presence of a flame retardant. Furthermore, they found that the inclusion of a flame retardant protecting agent causes problems such as a decrease in the molecular weight of the polymer due to inhibition of UV curing, and the protecting agent itself acts as a plasticizer, causing a decrease in the heat resistance of the three-dimensionally shaped object.

[0006] Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a curable resin composition capable of producing a three-dimensional object having excellent heat resistance and flame retardancy, a cured product of the composition, and a three-dimensional object made of the cured product.

[0007] As a result of intensive research to solve the above problems, the inventors discovered that the above problems can be solved by using a curable resin composition for stereolithography containing a specific photopolymerizable monomer and a phosphorus-based flame retardant, and thus completed the present invention.

[0008] That is, the present invention encompasses the following aspects. [1] A curable resin composition for stereolithography, comprising a polymerizable monomer including a photopolymerizable monomer (A) having two or more photopolymerizable functional groups, a phosphorus-based flame retardant (B), and a photopolymerization initiator. [2] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to [1], wherein a homopolymer of the photopolymerizable monomer (A) has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 100°C or higher. [3] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to [1] or [2], wherein the phosphorus-based flame retardant (B) is an aromatic phosphate ester-based flame retardant. [4] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to any one of [1] to [3], wherein the phosphorus-based flame retardant (B) is liquid at 23°C. [5] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to any one of [1] to [4], wherein the phosphorus-based flame retardant (B) is 15 to 45 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the polymerizable monomer. [6] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to any one of [1] to [5], further comprising a urethane oligomer (C) having two or more urethane bonds per molecule as the polymerizable monomer. [7] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to [6], wherein the urethane oligomer (C) has three or more (meth)acryloyl groups per molecule. [8] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to [6] or [7], wherein either the photopolymerizable monomer (A) or the urethane oligomer (C), or both, have an isocyanuric acid skeleton. [9] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to any one of [1] to [8], which is used in a digital light processing 3D printer.

[10] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to any one of [6] to [9], wherein the content of the urethane oligomer (C) is 10 to 55 wt % based on the total amount of the polymerizable monomer and the urethane oligomer (C).

[11] The curable resin composition for stereolithography according to any one of [1] to

[10] , further comprising silica.

[12] A cured product of the curable resin composition for stereolithography according to any one of [1] to

[11] .

[13] A three-dimensional object comprising the cured product according to

[12] .

[0009] The curable resin composition for stereolithography of the present invention is capable of producing three-dimensional objects with excellent heat resistance, strength, and flame retardancy. Furthermore, by increasing the concentration of reactive functional groups in the composition, the curable resin composition for stereolithography of the present invention can produce three-dimensional objects at low illuminance, thereby suppressing the decomposition of flame retardants without the use of flame retardant protectors. Furthermore, while the inclusion of non-reactive flame retardants such as metal hydroxides and antimony oxides can cause a decrease in heat resistance, the combination of a bifunctional or higher photopolymerizable monomer with a phosphorus-based flame retardant provides excellent heat resistance while achieving high flame retardancy with a small amount of flame retardant. In this way, three-dimensional objects can be obtained that exhibit both excellent flame retardancy and heat resistance that is useful in practical situations.

When the molecular weight is within this range, a three-dimensionally shaped article having excellent heat resistance and strength can be obtained.

[0027] As the urethane oligomer (C), it is preferable to use a polyfunctional urethane acrylate such as diurethane dimethacrylate, etc. Also, compounds represented by the following chemical formulas (C1) to (C6) are preferred. Commercially available products may also be used from the viewpoint of availability, and examples thereof include those manufactured by Daicel Allnex Co., Ltd. under the trade names "EBECRYL220", "EBECRYL4513", "EBECRYL4738", "EBECRYL4740", "EBECRYL8311", "EBECRYL9260", "EBECRYL8701", "KRM8667", "KRM8296", "EBECRYL4265", "EBECRYL4587", "EBECRYL4666", "EBECRYL8210", "EBECRYL1290", "EBECRYL5129", "EBECRYL8301R", "KRM8200", "KRM8904", and "KRM8451"; and those manufactured by MIWON Co., Ltd. under the trade names "MIRAMER PU340" and "MIRAMER PU3450", "MIRAMER PU5000", "MIRAMER PU610", "MIRAMER PU6510", "MIRAMER PU9500", "MIRAMER PU9800", "MIRAMER SC2100", "MIRAMER SC2565", "MIRAMER PU370", "MIRAMER PU640", etc. can be used.

[0028] The urethane oligomer (C) preferably has an isocyanuric acid skeleton. That is, it is preferable that either the photopolymerizable monomer (A) or the urethane oligomer (C), or both, have an isocyanuric acid skeleton. The composition of the present invention, which combines a tri- or higher functional urethane oligomer (C), a compound having an isocyanuric acid skeleton, and a phosphorus-based flame retardant (B), enables the production of a three-dimensional object with particularly excellent heat resistance and flame retardancy. In particular, the tri- or higher functional urethane oligomer (C) exhibits particularly excellent heat resistance due to improved crosslink density and rigidification of the resin structure. Furthermore, by combining a compound having an isocyanuric acid skeleton, the flame retardancy is significantly improved due to the synergistic effect of the nitrogen atom derived from the isocyanuric acid skeleton and the phosphorus atom derived from the phosphorus-based flame retardant (B). When the composition of the present invention contains a compound having an isocyanuric acid skeleton, the content thereof (total content when multiple compounds are included) is preferably 10 to 40 parts by weight, more preferably 15 to 30 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the polymerizable monomer.

[0029] Examples of compounds having an isocyanuric acid skeleton include compounds represented by the following chemical formulas (C7) and (C8). (C7) (C8)

[0030] The urethane oligomer (C) can be obtained, for example, by reacting a polyisocyanate (a1) with a compound (a2) having a hydroxyl group and a (meth)acryloyl group. A compound (a3) ​​having a hydroxyl group other than the compound (a2) may also be used as a reaction raw material.

[0031] The polyisocyanate (a1) is not particularly limited as long as it can form the urethane resin (A) used in the present invention having a specific content of (meth)acryloyl groups, and can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose. Examples of the diisocyanate include aliphatic diisocyanate compounds such as butane diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, 2,2,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate, and 2,4,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate; alicyclic diisocyanate compounds such as norbornane diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, hydrogenated xylylene diisocyanate, and hydrogenated diphenylmethane diisocyanate; aromatic diisocyanate compounds such as tolylene diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate, tetramethylxylylene diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate, 4,4'-diisocyanato-3,3'-dimethylbiphenyl, and o-tolidine diisocyanate; and isocyanurate-modified, biuret-modified, and allophanate-modified diisocyanates thereof.

[0032] Furthermore, if the polyisocyanate (a1) is particularly isophorone diisocyanate, 2,2,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate, 2,4,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate, hydrogenated diphenylmethane diisocyanate, or an isocyanurate-modified product of hexamethylene diisocyanate, it is more preferable in terms of forming a cured product that has both high heat resistance and flame retardancy.

[0033] The compound (a2) having a hydroxyl group and a (meth)acryloyl group is not particularly limited as long as it can form a urethane resin (A) having at least one (meth)acryloyl group in the molecule, and can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose. Examples thereof include hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate, trimethylolpropane (meth)acrylate, trimethylolpropane di(meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol (meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol di(meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol tri(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol (meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol di(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol tri(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol penta(meth)acrylate, ditrimethylolpropane (meth)acrylate, ditrimethylolpropane di(meth)acrylate, and ditrimethylolpropane tri(meth)acrylate. Also usable are (poly)oxyalkylene modified compounds in which a (poly)oxyalkylene chain such as a (poly)oxyethylene chain, a (poly)oxypropylene chain or a (poly)oxytetramethylene chain has been introduced into the molecular structure of the above-mentioned various compounds having a hydroxyl group and a (meth)acryloyl group, and lactone modified compounds in which a (poly)lactone structure has been introduced into the molecular structure of the above-mentioned various compounds having a hydroxyl group and a (meth)acryloyl group.

[0034] Furthermore, when the compound (a2) having a hydroxyl group and a (meth)acryloyl group is, in particular, pentaerythritol di(meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol tri(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate (for example, various products under the trade name "ARONIX" (registered trademark) manufactured by Toagosei Co., Ltd. (M-306, M-305, M-303, M-452, M-450, etc.)), or dipentaerythritol penta(meth)acrylate (for example, various products under the trade name "ARONIX" (registered trademark) manufactured by Toagosei Co., Ltd. (M-400, M-403, M-404, M-405, M-406, MT-3545, etc.)), it is more preferable to form a cured product that combines high heat resistance and flame retardancy.

[0035] The compound (a3) ​​having a hydroxyl group is not particularly limited as long as it is a compound having a hydroxyl group but not a (meth)acryloyl group in the molecule, and can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose. For example, polyhydric alcohols having a linear alkyl structure such as ethylene glycol, 1,3-propylene glycol, 1,4-butanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, 1,8-octanediol, 1,9-nonanediol, 1,10-decanediol, etc.; polyhydric alcohols having a branched alkyl structure such as 3-methyl-1,5-pentanediol, neopentyl glycol, 2-ethyl-1,3-hexanediol, 2-methyl-1,8-octanediol, etc.; polycarbonate polyols synthesized by transesterification of these polyhydric alcohols with carbonate esters; polyester polyols synthesized by dehydration condensation of the above polyhydric alcohols with dibasic acids; polytetramethylene ether glycol, polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, copolymers of polyethylene glycol and polypropylene glycol, etc. can be used.

[0036] The method for producing the urethane oligomer (C) is not particularly limited, and any method may be used. For example, the urethane oligomer (C) may be produced by reacting the polyisocyanate (a1) and the compound (a2) having a hydroxyl group and a (meth)acryloyl group in a single reaction, or by dividing the reactants and reacting them sequentially. The compound (a3) ​​having a hydroxyl group may or may not be used as a reactant.

[0037] In producing the urethane oligomer (C), for example, dibutyltin laurate, dibutyltin acetate, etc. can be used as a catalyst, and the production can be carried out under the conditions for a commonly performed urethanization reaction. If necessary, a solvent such as ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, methyl isobutyl ketone, toluene, xylene, etc., or a radical polymerizable monomer that does not contain a site reactive with isocyanate and does not contain a hydroxyl group or an amino group, can also be used as a solvent.

[0038] The content of the urethane oligomer (C) is, for example, 10 to 55% by weight, preferably 15 to 50% by weight, based on the total amount of the polymerizable monomers including the photopolymerizable monomer (A) and the urethane oligomer (C). When the content of the urethane oligomer (C) is within the above range, the bending strength of the cured product can be further improved.

Among these, it is preferable to use a digital light processing (DLP) 3D printer because it enables high-speed modeling using surfaces and easily exhibits the effects of the composition of the present invention.

[0060] The stereolithography (SLA) method is a method in which a tank of liquid curable resin composition is irradiated with active energy rays such as laser beams at points, and the composition is cured layer by layer while the modeling stage is moved, resulting in a three-dimensional model.The digital light processing (DLP) method is a method in which a tank of liquid curable resin composition is irradiated with active energy rays such as LEDs at surfaces, and the composition is cured layer by layer while the modeling stage is moved, resulting in a three-dimensional model.The inkjet stereolithography method is a method in which minute droplets of a stereolithography curable resin composition are ejected from a nozzle to draw a predetermined shape pattern, and then ultraviolet light is irradiated to form a cured thin film.

[0061] The DLP three-dimensional modeling method is not particularly limited as long as it is a method using a DLP optical modeling system. However, as for the modeling conditions, in order to improve the modeling accuracy of the three-dimensional model, it is preferable that the layer pitch of the optical modeling is in the range of 0.01 to 0.2 mm, the irradiation wavelength is in the range of 350 to 410 nm, and the light intensity is in the range of 0.5 to 50 mW / cm. 2 The integrated light amount per layer is in the range of 1 to 100 mJ / cm 2 In particular, in order to improve the molding accuracy of the three-dimensional object, the layer pitch of the photolithography is in the range of 0.02 to 0.1 mm, the irradiation wavelength is in the range of 365 to 410 nm, and the light intensity is in the range of 5 to 15 mW / cm. 2The integrated light amount per layer is in the range of 5 to 15 mJ / cm 2 The three-dimensional object obtained by stereolithography may be irradiated with active energy rays from multiple directions to form a final three-dimensional object. This irradiation step is called post-curing.

[0062] The three-dimensional object of the present invention has both heat resistance and flame retardancy, and therefore can be suitably used in applications requiring heat resistance and flame retardancy, such as electric and electronic parts, automobile parts, furniture, and home appliance parts.
