Solution Overview

Problem

Existing vinyl chloride resin compositions exhibit poor powder fluidity, leading to non-uniformity in thickness and density in molded products, particularly in applications like automobile instrument panels, which affects their suitability as surface skins.

Innovation Solution

A vinyl chloride resin composition containing specific amounts of a plasticizer and a uracil compound, such as 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil, enhances powder fluidity and inhibits yellowing during high-temperature molding, resulting in a balanced composition that can be easily molded into uniform products.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If a vinyl chloride resin composition contains only a vinyl chloride resin and a plasticizer, then the composition is simple and easy to manufacture, but the powder fluidity is poor leading to non-uniform molded products

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuniformity of molded productVSAvoidcomposition complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the chemical composition parameters by introducing a uracil compound at specific concentrations (0.01-5 parts by mass per 100 parts of vinyl chloride resin) to improve powder fluidity and achieve uniform molded products

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a composite material system combining vinyl chloride resin, plasticizer, and uracil compound where the uracil compound acts as a fluidity enhancer, achieving both improved manufacturing precision and controlled composition complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Manufacturing precision

If the plasticizer content is increased to improve powder fluidity, then the molded product uniformity improves, but the composition becomes more complex and harder to control

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvethickness uniformityVSAvoidcomposition control
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent optimizes the plasticizer content parameter to a specific range (50-200 parts by mass per 100 parts of vinyl chloride resin) and combines it with the uracil compound to achieve the desired powder fluidity and thickness uniformity while maintaining ease of manufacture

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If the vinyl chloride resin composition is molded at high temperature to improve productivity, then the molding speed increases, but yellowing occurs during the molding process

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemolding speedVSAvoidyellowing
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The uracil compound acts as an intermediary substance that mediates between the high temperature molding process and the vinyl chloride resin, enabling high-temperature processing for improved productivity while preventing yellowing through the uracil compound's protective effect

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
