Description

Polycarbonate resin composition

[0001] The present invention relates to a polycarbonate resin composition, and more particularly to a polycarbonate resin composition that satisfies various environmental regulations and has excellent flame retardancy.

[0002] Polycarbonate resins are resins with excellent heat resistance, mechanical properties, and electrical characteristics, and are widely used, for example, as materials for manufacturing vehicle parts, electrical and electronic equipment parts, housing materials, and other parts in industrial fields. In particular, flame-retardant polycarbonate resin compositions are suitably used as vehicle parts, electrical and electronic equipment parts such as personal computers, mobile phones, and battery cases, and parts for office automation and information equipment such as printers and copiers.

[0003] In recent years, the trend toward flame retardancy has grown, leading to a demand for high levels of flame retardancy in polycarbonate resins, with many cases requiring a V-0 rating under the UL-94 testing method. Halogen-based and phosphorus-based flame retardants have been used to impart flame retardancy to polycarbonate resins. However, a relatively high addition rate of phosphorus-based flame retardants is required to achieve V-0 flame retardancy, which can easily reduce the mechanical performance of polycarbonate resin materials. Flame retardants using halogen-based bromine- or chlorine-based flame retardants are increasingly being banned due to the toxicity and environmental concerns of the harmful gases they emit.

[0004] In particular, fluorine-based flame retardants, such as perfluoroalkane metal salts proposed in Patent Documents 1 and 2, can achieve high flame retardancy with a relatively small amount. Furthermore, by incorporating such flame retardants with polyfluoroethylene as an anti-dripping agent, dripping can be suppressed and flame retardancy can be further improved. However, in recent years, fluorine compounds have become subject to international restrictions, particularly in Japan, Europe, and the United States. In the EU, perfluorobutanesulfonic acid and its metal salts (PFBS) are restricted by REACH. Furthermore, PFAS restrictions on perfluoro- and polyfluoroalkyl compounds are also being implemented, primarily in the EU and the United States. These restrictions are becoming even more stringent.

[0006] Therefore, there is a strong demand for a highly functional flame-retardant polycarbonate resin composition that does not emit toxic gases during combustion, meets various regulations, and is environmentally friendly. However, it is not easy to achieve a V-0 rating in the UL-94 test without using a non-halogen flame retardant or a non-phosphorus flame retardant, or without further using polytetrafluoroethylene as a drip prevention agent. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its object (object) is to provide a polycarbonate resin composition that meets various regulations, exhibits environmentally friendly, and exhibits highly functional flame retardancy.

[0007] The present inventors have conducted extensive research to achieve the above object, and as a result have found that the above object can be achieved by containing an alumina hydrate, a non-phosphorus or non-halogen flame retardant, and a filler, and adjusting the ratio of the content of the alumina hydrate to the content of the filler within a specific range, thereby completing the present invention.

Among these, the interfacial polymerization and melt transesterification methods are preferred because they have a higher effect of improving moist heat resistance, and the interfacial polymerization method is particularly preferred.

[0025] The molecular weight of the polycarbonate resin (A), as calculated from the solution viscosity measured at 25°C using methylene chloride as a solvent, is preferably 10,000 to 50,000, more preferably 11,000 to 40,000, and even more preferably 12,000 to 35,000, and particularly preferably 13,000 to 30,000. By adjusting the viscosity average molecular weight to at least the lower limit of the above range, the mechanical strength of the polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention can be further improved. By adjusting the viscosity average molecular weight to at most the upper limit of the above range, the decrease in flowability of the polycarbonate resin composition of the present invention can be suppressed and improved, and molding processability can be improved, allowing for easier molding processability. Two or more polycarbonate resins having different viscosity average molecular weights may be mixed and used, in which case polycarbonate resins having viscosity average molecular weights outside the above preferred range may be mixed.

[0026] The viscosity average molecular weight [Mv] is determined by measuring the intrinsic viscosity [η] (unit: dl / g) at 25°C using methylene chloride as a solvent with an Ubbelohde viscometer, and then calculating the viscosity average molecular weight [Mv] using the Schnell viscosity formula, i.e., η = 1.23 × 10 －４ Mv ０．８３ The intrinsic viscosity [η] is the value calculated from the specific viscosity [η] at each solution concentration [C] (g / dl). ｓｐ ] was measured and the value was calculated according to the following formula.

[0027] In order to improve the appearance and flowability of molded articles, the polycarbonate resin (A) may contain a polycarbonate oligomer. The viscosity average molecular weight [Mv] of this polycarbonate oligomer is usually 1500 or more, preferably 2000 or more, and usually 9500 or less, preferably 9000 or less. Furthermore, the amount of the polycarbonate oligomer contained is preferably 30% by mass or less of the polycarbonate resin (including the polycarbonate oligomer).

[0028] Furthermore, the polycarbonate resin (A) may be not only a virgin raw material but also a polycarbonate resin recycled from used products (so-called material-recycled polycarbonate resin), and it is also preferable to contain both a virgin raw material and a recycled resin, or it may consist of a recycled polycarbonate resin.

[0029] [Alumina Hydrate (B)] The alumina hydrate (B) used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, a hydrate represented by the formula: Al ２ O ３ ・nH ２ When n is represented by 0, it is a compound where n is 0<n<3. When n is 0, it is simply aluminum oxide. As the alumina hydrate (B), boehmite where n is 1 is preferred. Incidentally, boehmite can also be expressed as AlOOH. As the alumina hydrate (B), one where n is more than 1 and less than 3 is also preferred, which is a mixture of boehmite and alumina hydrate with a non-crystalline structure, and is sometimes generally called pseudo-boehmite. As the alumina hydrate (B), boehmite or pseudo-boehmite is preferred, and boehmite is particularly preferred because of its high heat resistance and chemical stability. The alumina hydrate (B) may be used alone or in combination of two or more types.

[0030] In the present invention, excellent flame retardancy is achieved by combining the above-mentioned alumina hydrate (B) with a filler (D). That is, 0.25 to 7 parts by mass of alumina hydrate (B) and 1 to 90 parts by mass of filler (D) are contained per 100 parts by mass of polycarbonate resin (A), with the mass ratio (B / D) of the content of alumina hydrate (B) to the content of filler (D) being 0.005 to 0.11. By setting the mass ratio (B / D) of the content of both components in this manner, the flame retardancy due to the dehydration of alumina hydrate (B) and the drip prevention ability due to the filler (D) are achieved in a well-balanced manner, thereby achieving a V-0 rating under UL-94 (1.5 mmt). The mass ratio (B / D) of the contents is preferably 0.007 or more, more preferably 0.009 or more, particularly preferably 0.010 or more, 0.011 or more, 0.012 or more, or 0.013 or more, and is preferably 0.10 or less, more preferably 0.09 or less, particularly preferably 0.08 or less, or 0.07 or less. The content of alumina hydrate (B) is 0.25 to 7 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of polycarbonate resin (A), and by setting the content in this range, good flame retardancy is achieved. If the content is less than the above lower limit, flame retardancy is insufficient, and even if the content of alumina hydrate (B) is increased beyond the upper limit, decomposition of the polycarbonate resin occurs easily, making it difficult to achieve good flame retardancy. The content of alumina hydrate (B) is more preferably 0.5 or more, 0.6 or more, of which 0.7 or more, 1.0 or more is preferred, and is more preferably 6.0 or less, 5.0 or less, of which 4.0 or less, 3.0 or less, 2.0 or less, 1.5 or less.

By doing so, better flame retardancy can be exhibited. The value of S×M is more preferably 1.0 or more, and particularly preferably 1.1 or more, 1.2 or more, 1.3 or more, 1.4 or more, or 1.5 or more, and is more preferably 18 or less, and particularly preferably 16 or less, 15 or less, 14 or less, 13 or less, or 12 or less.
