Description

  The present invention relates to a polypropylene resin composition and a polypropylene film for a fusing seal, and more specifically, a polypropylene resin composition for a fusing seal and excellent in fusing and sealing properties (stickiness, bleed out, low elution components, etc.) The present invention relates to a polypropylene film.

Conventionally, biaxially oriented polypropylene-based films are excellent in transparency and rigidity, and can be heat-sealed at low temperatures by multilayering by coextrusion molding. Therefore, they are used in various applications such as food packaging applications. .
As the polypropylene resin (PP) used for the sealing layer, a Ziegler PP has been conventionally proposed. However, cleanliness (stickiness, bleedout, residual volatile content, etc.) is inferior, and thus excellent cleanliness. Metallocene PP is desired.
However, when the metallocene PP is used for the fusing seal layer, there is a problem that the fusing heat seal strength is lowered as compared with the case where the Ziegler PP is used.

  In addition, the polypropylene film containing low-density polyethylene and amorphous ethylene-α-olefin copolymer has insufficient mechanical strength such as tensile strength and tensile rupture stress, or has low fusing seal strength. When using a fusing seal product with a fusing seal, the film or film seal may be damaged during automatic packaging or mounting as a label, and the tensile strength, tensile breaking stress and Improvement of the fusing seal strength is desired.

However, various proposals have been made as a biaxially stretched polypropylene film (OPP film) for fusing seal with improved fusing seal strength (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 4).
For example, Patent Document 1 includes an intermediate layer formed of a propylene homopolymer, and a skin layer formed of a propylene random copolymer provided on the front and back surfaces so as to sandwich the intermediate layer. In addition, an OPP film for fusing sealing is disclosed, wherein the intermediate layer contains 0.005 to 0.1 parts by weight of a crystallization nucleating agent with respect to 100 parts by mass of a propylene homopolymer. .
Patent Document 2 discloses a laminated film including at least two layers of a mat layer and a seal layer, wherein the mat layer has a propylene-based block copolymer (A) as a main component and at least an alkyl sulfonate. The antistatic agent contained is added to 3000 to 10000 ppm, and the seal layer is 50 to 80% by weight of the propylene random copolymer resin (B), and the density is 0.870 to 0.895. A total of 2000 to 5000 ppm of a lubricant and / or an antistatic agent is added to 100 parts by weight of a resin composition comprising 20 to 50% by weight of an α-olefin copolymer resin (C). A polyolefin resin laminated film is disclosed.
In Patent Document 3, a sealing layer mainly composed of a polyolefin resin is laminated on both the front and back surfaces of a base layer mainly composed of a polypropylene resin, is biaxially stretched, and has a thickness of 10 μm or more and less than 70 μm. And a polypropylene resin laminated film for packaging fresh products having a haze value of 0.4% or more and 5.0% or less, and a polypropylene resin constituting a base layer and a seal layer is formed by a gas phase method. And satisfying that at least one of inorganic particles is added to the seal layer and an antifogging agent is blended in at least one of the resin forming the base layer and the resin forming the seal layer. A polypropylene resin laminated film for packaging fresh products is disclosed.
Furthermore, in the above-mentioned Patent Document 4, there are two layers of an (A) layer containing a propylene homopolymer having an NMR pentad fraction of 93 to 98% and a (B) layer containing a propylene random copolymer and a polyethylene resin. A biaxially oriented polypropylene-based film characterized by having it is disclosed.
However, the proposed OPP film for fusing seal is still not sufficient in terms of performance such as fusing seal strength.

  On the other hand, a polypropylene stretched film, particularly a polypropylene biaxially stretched film, is widely used mainly for food packaging applications due to its excellent mechanical and optical properties, but its fusing heat seal layer has Since a resin polymerized with a Ziegler-Natta (ZN) -based catalyst is mainly used, it is inferior in cleanliness. Therefore, a clean material with less stickiness, bleedout, residual volatile matter, etc. is required.

Problems and productivity problems occur.
In the following, characteristics to be satisfied by the components (X) and (Y) will be described in detail for each item.

I. Polypropylene resin component (X) having a long-chain branched structure
In the polypropylene resin composition for fusing seals of the present invention, it is essential to have the following properties (Xi) to (X-vi), and a polypropylene resin (X ) Is used.
Characteristic (Xi): MFR is 0.1 to 30.0 g / 10 min.
Property (X-ii): 25 degreeC paraxylene soluble component amount (CXS) is less than 5.0 weight% with respect to polypropylene resin (X) whole quantity.

Characteristic (Xv): The branching index g ^′ when the absolute molecular weight Mabs is 1 million is 0.30 or more and less than 1.00.
Characteristic (X-vi): Melt tension (MT) (unit: g) is
log (MT) ≧ −0.9 × log (MFR) +0.7 or MT ≧ 15
Satisfy one of the following.

1. Characteristic (X-i): MFR
The melt flow rate (MFR) of the polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure in the present invention needs to be in the range of 0.1 to 30.0 g / 10 minutes, and preferably 0.3 to 20 0.0 g / 10 min, more preferably 0.5 to 10.0 g / 10 min. If it falls below this range, the fluidity will be insufficient, causing problems such as too high load on the extruder for various moldings. On the other hand, if it exceeds this range, the properties as a high melt tension material will be poor due to insufficient tension. Become unsuitable.
The method for controlling the MFR value is well known, and can be easily adjusted by adjusting the temperature and pressure, which are polymerization conditions of the polypropylene resin (X), or by controlling the amount of hydrogen added during polymerization of a chain transfer agent such as hydrogen. Adjustments can be made.
MFR is JIS K7210: 1999 “Method of plastic-thermoplastic melt mass flow rate (MFR) and melt volume flow rate (MVR) test method”, condition M (230 ° C., 2.16 kg load). Measured according to the standard, the unit is g / 10 minutes.

2. Characteristic (X-ii): 25 ° C. paraxylene soluble component amount (CXS)
The polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure used in the present invention has high stereoregularity and preferably has few low crystallinity components that cause stickiness and bleed-out when it becomes a product. This low crystallinity component is evaluated by the amount of xylene soluble component (CXS) at 25 ° C., and it must be less than 5.0% by weight, preferably 3. It is 0 weight% or less, More preferably, it is 1.0 weight% or less, More preferably, it is 0.5 weight% or less. The lower limit is not particularly limited, but is usually 0.01% by weight or more, preferably 0.03% by weight or more.
In order to make CXS less than 5% by weight, it can be produced by using a metallocene catalyst, as will be described later. It is necessary that the reaction conditions are not extremely high and that the amount ratio of the organoaluminum compound to the metallocene complex is not increased too much.

The details of the CXS measurement method are as follows.
A 2 g sample is dissolved in 300 ml of p-xylene (containing 0.5 mg / ml BHT) at 130 ° C. to make a solution, and then left at 25 ° C. for 12 hours. Thereafter, the precipitated polymer is separated by filtration, p-xylene is evaporated from the filtrate, and further dried under reduced pressure at 100 ° C. for 12 hours to recover room temperature xylene-soluble components. The ratio (% by weight) of the weight of the recovered component to the charged sample weight is defined as CXS.

3. Characteristic (X-iii): mm fraction of 3 chain of propylene units by ¹³ C-NMR The polypropylene resin (X) having a long chain branched structure used in the present invention is characterized by high stereoregularity. Stereoregularity of the ^height, can be evaluated by ^{13 C-NMR, 13 C-} NMR mm fraction of the propylene unit triad sequences obtained by needs to be at least 95%.
The upper limit of the mm fraction is the ratio of the three propylene units in the polymer chain, and the three propylene units in the same direction of the methyl branch in each propylene unit consisting of head-to-tail bonds is 100%. is there. This mm fraction is a value indicating that the steric structure of the methyl group in the polypropylene molecular chain is controlled isotactically, and the higher the value, the higher the degree of control. If the mm fraction is smaller than this value, the mechanical properties tend to decrease, such as the decrease in elastic modulus.
Therefore, the mm fraction is preferably 95.0% or more, more preferably 96.0% or more, and further preferably 97.0% or more.
The mm fraction can be 95% or more by using a polymerization catalyst that achieves a highly crystalline polymer, and by using a preferred metallocene catalyst described later for polymerization.

In addition, the detail of the measuring method of mm fraction of the propylene unit 3 chain | strand by ¹³ C-NMR is as follows.
A sample of 375 mg is completely dissolved in 2.5 ml of deuterated 1,1,2,2, -tetrachloroethane in an NMR sample tube (10φ), and then measured at 125 ° C. by a proton complete decoupling method. The chemical shift sets the central peak of the three peaks of deuterated 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane to 74.2 ppm. The chemical shift of other carbon peaks is based on this.
Flip angle: 90 degrees Pulse interval: 10 seconds Resonance frequency: 100 MHz or more Integration frequency: 10,000 times or more Observation range: -20 ppm to 179 ppm
Number of data points: 32768
The analysis of the mm fraction is performed using a ¹³ C-NMR spectrum measured under the above conditions.
The spectrum is assigned with reference to Macromolecules, (1975) 8 pp. 687 and Polymer, 30 pages 1350 (1989).
Note that a more specific method for determining the mm fraction is described in detail in paragraphs [0053] to [0065] of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2009-275207, and the present invention is performed according to this method. .

4). Characteristic (X-iv): Molecular weight distribution by GPC In addition, the polypropylene resin (X) having a long chain branched structure needs to have a relatively wide molecular weight distribution, and the molecular weight obtained by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The distribution Mw / Mn (where Mw is the weight average molecular weight and Mn is the number average molecular weight) needs to be 3.0 or more and 10.0 or less. The molecular weight distribution Mw / Mn of the polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure is preferably in the range of 3.5 to 8.0, more preferably 4.1 to 6.0.
Furthermore, Mz / Mw (where Mz is the Z average molecular weight) needs to be 2.5 or more and 10.0 or less as a parameter that more significantly represents the width of the molecular weight distribution. The preferable range of Mz / Mw is 2.8 to 8.0, more preferably 3.0 to 6.0.
As the molecular weight distribution is wider, the molding processability is improved, but those having Mw / Mn and Mz / Mw within this range are particularly excellent in molding processability and melt extrusion characteristics.
The definitions of Mn, Mw, and Mz are described in “Basics of Polymer Chemistry” (edited by the Society of Polymer Science, Tokyo Kagaku Dojin, 1978) and can be calculated from molecular weight distribution curves by GPC.

  In order to set Mw / Mn to 3.0 or more and 10.0 or less and Mz / Mw to 2.5 or more and 10.0 or less, the temperature and pressure conditions of propylene polymerization are changed, or as the most general technique Can be easily adjusted by a method in which a chain transfer agent such as hydrogen is added during propylene polymerization. Furthermore, when using 2 or more types of the metallocene catalyst mentioned later and a catalyst, it can control by changing the quantity ratio.

A specific GPC measurement method is as follows.
Apparatus: GPC manufactured by Waters (ALC / GPC 150C)
Detector: MIRAN 1A IR detector manufactured by FOXBORO (measurement wavelength: 3.42 μm)
Column: AD806M / S (3 pieces) manufactured by Showa Denko KK
-Mobile phase solvent: orthodichlorobenzene (ODCB)
・ Measurement temperature: 140 ℃
・ Flow rate: 1.0 ml / min
・ Injection volume: 0.2ml
Sample preparation: Prepare a 1 mg / mL solution using ODCB (containing 0.5 mg / mL BHT) and dissolve it at 140 ° C. for about 1 hour.
Conversion from the retention capacity obtained by GPC measurement to the molecular weight is performed using a calibration curve prepared in advance by standard polystyrene (PS). The standard polystyrenes used are all the following brands manufactured by Tosoh Corporation.
F380, F288, F128, F80, F40, F20, F10, F4, F1, A5000, A2500, A1000
A calibration curve is created by injecting 0.2 mL of a solution dissolved in ODCB (containing 0.5 mg / mL BHT) so that each is 0.5 mg / mL. The calibration curve uses a cubic equation obtained by approximation by the least square method.
In addition, the following numerical value is used for the viscosity formula [η] = K × M ^α used for conversion to molecular weight.
PS: K = 1.38 × 10 ⁻⁴ , α = 0.7
PP: K = 1.03 × 10 ⁻⁴ , α = 0.78

5. Characteristic (Xv): Branch index g ′
As a direct indicator that the polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure has a branch, a branch index g ^′ can be mentioned. g ^′ is given by the ratio of the intrinsic viscosity [η] lin of the linear polymer having the same molecular weight as the intrinsic viscosity [η] br of the polymer having a long chain branched structure, that is, [η] br / [η] lin. When a long chain branched structure is present, the value is smaller than 1.
The definition is described in, for example, “Developments in Polymer Characterization-4” (JV Dawkins ed. Applied Science Publishers, 1983), and is an index known to those skilled in the art.

The branching index g ^′ can be obtained as a function of the absolute molecular weight Mabs, for example, by using a GPC equipped with a light scatterometer and a viscometer as described below in the detector.
The polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure used in the present invention preferably has a g ′ of 0.30 or more and less than 1.00 when the absolute molecular weight Mabs determined by light scattering is 1,000,000. Preferably they are 0.55 or more and 0.98 or less, More preferably, they are 0.75 or more and 0.96 or less, Most preferably, they are 0.78 or more and 0.95 or less.
The polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure according to the present invention is considered to generate a comb-like chain as a molecular structure from its polymerization mechanism. When g ′ is less than 0.30, the main chain is small. The ratio of the side chain is extremely large. In such a case, the melt tension may not be improved or a gel may be formed, which is not preferable in melt extrusion processing. On the other hand, when it is 1.00, this means that there is no branch, and the melt tension tends to be insufficient, which is not suitable for melt extrusion processing.

The lower limit of g ′ is preferably the above value for the following reason.
According to the document “Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering vol. 2” (John Wiley & Sons 1985 p.485), the g ^′ value of the comb polymer is represented by the following formula.

Here, g is a branching index defined by the rotation radius ratio of the polymer, and ε is a constant determined by the shape of the branched chain and the solvent. According to Table 3 of 487, a value of about 0.7 to 1.0 is reported for the comb chain in a good solvent. λ is the ratio of the main chain in the comb chain, and p is the average number of branches. According to this equation, the number of branches is extremely large with a comb chain, that is, p is infinite, and g ^′ = g ^ε = λ ^ε , which is not less than the value of λ ^ε. In general, there will be a lower limit.
On the other hand, the conventionally known random branched chain formula, which is considered to occur in the case of electron beam irradiation or peroxide modification, is given by the 485 page formula (19) in the same document. In the chain, as the number of branch points increases, the g ′ and g values monotonously decrease, especially without the lower limit. That is, in the present invention, the fact that the g ′ value has a lower limit means that the polypropylene resin (X) having a long chain branched structure used in the present invention has a structure close to a comb chain. Thus, the distinction from random branched chains generated by electron beam irradiation or peroxide modification becomes clearer.
Further, in a branched polymer having a structure close to a comb chain in which g ′ is in the above range, the degree of decrease in melt tension is small when kneading is repeated, and this occurs in the process of industrially producing a molded product. For example, when a sheet or film is formed by cutting an edge during film molding, or when a member such as an injection molding runner is subjected to molding again as a recycled material, a decrease in physical properties and moldability is reduced. It is preferable.

A specific method for calculating the branching index g ′ is as follows.
Waters Alliance GPCV2000 is used as a GPC apparatus equipped with a differential refractometer (RI) and a viscosity detector (Viscometer). As the light scattering detector, a DAWN-E manufactured by Wyatt Technology, a multi-angle laser light scattering detector (MALLS) is used. The detectors are connected in the order of MALLS, RI, and Viscometer. The mobile phase solvent is 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (added with an antioxidant Irganox 1076 manufactured by BASF Japan Ltd. at a concentration of 0.5 mg / mL).
The flow rate is 1 mL / min, and two columns of Tosoh Corporation GMHHR-H (S) HT are connected and used. The temperature of the column, sample injection section, and each detector is 140 ° C. The sample concentration is 1 mg / mL and the injection volume (sample loop volume) is 0.2175 mL.
In order to obtain the absolute molecular weight (Mabs) obtained from MALLS, the mean square inertia radius (Rg), and the intrinsic viscosity ([η]) obtained from Viscometer, the data processing software ASTRA (version 4.73.04) attached to MALLS is used. The calculation is performed with reference to the following documents.

[Calculation of branching index (g ′)]
The branching index (g ′) is a ratio between the intrinsic viscosity ([η] br) obtained by measuring the sample with the above Viscometer and the intrinsic viscosity ([η] lin) obtained separately by measuring the linear polymer. Calculated as ([η] br / [η] lin).
When a long-chain branched structure is introduced into a polymer molecule, the radius of inertia becomes smaller than that of a linear polymer molecule having the same molecular weight. Since the intrinsic viscosity becomes smaller as the inertia radius becomes smaller, the intrinsic viscosity ([η] br) of the branched polymer with respect to the intrinsic viscosity ([η] lin) of the linear polymer having the same molecular weight as the long chain branched structure is introduced. The ratio ([η] br / [η] lin) becomes smaller.
Therefore, when the branch index (g ′ = [η] br / [η] lin) is a value smaller than 1, it means that a branch is introduced. Here, as a linear polymer for obtaining [η] lin, a commercially available homopolypropylene (Novatech PP (registered trademark) grade name: FY6 manufactured by Nippon Polypro Co., Ltd.) is used. The fact that the logarithm of [η] lin of a linear polymer has a linear relationship with the logarithm of molecular weight is known as the Mark-Houwink-Sakurada equation, so [η] lin is appropriately set on the low molecular weight side or the high molecular weight side. Extrapolation can be used to obtain numerical values.

  In order to make the branching index g ′ 0.30 or more and less than 1.00, it is achieved by introducing many long-chain branches, selection of preferred metallocene catalysts described later, a combination thereof, a quantitative ratio thereof, and prepolymerization This can be achieved by controlling the conditions for polymerization.

6). Characteristic (X-vi): Melt tension (MT)
Furthermore, the polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure used in the present invention has the following relationship between melt tension (MT) and MFR:
log (MT) ≧ −0.9 × log (MFR) +0.7
Or MT ≧ 15
You need to meet one of the following:
Here, MT is Capillograph 1B manufactured by Toyo Seiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd. Capillary: 2.0 mm in diameter, 40 mm in length, cylinder diameter: 9.55 mm, cylinder extrusion speed: 20 mm / min, take-off speed: 4. The melt tension when measured under the conditions of 0 m / min and temperature: 230 ° C. is expressed in grams. However, when the MT of the polypropylene resin (X) is extremely high, the resin may be broken at a take-up speed of 4.0 m / min. In such a case, the take-up speed can be lowered to take off the resin. Let MT be the tension at the highest speed. The measurement conditions and units of MFR are as described above.

This rule is an index for the polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure to have a sufficient melt tension for melt extrusion processing. Generally, since MT has a correlation with MFR, It is described by a relational expression with MFR.
Thus, the method of defining the melt tension MT by the relational expression with MFR is a normal method for those skilled in the art. The following relational expression has been proposed.
log (MS)> − 0.61 × log (MFR) +0.82
(Here, MS is synonymous with MT.)
Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2003-64193 proposes the following relational expression as a definition of polypropylene having a high melt tension.
11.32 × MFR ^−0.7854 ≦ MT
Furthermore, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-94504 proposes the following relational expression as a definition of polypropylene having a high melt tension.
MT ≧ 7.52 × MFR ^−0.576

In the present invention, the polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure is represented by the relational formula:
log (MT) ≧ −0.9 × log (MFR) +0.7 or MT ≧ 15
If either of these is satisfied, it can be said that the resin has a sufficiently high melt tension and is useful for melt extrusion.
The polypropylene resin (X) has the following relational expression:
log (MT) ≧ −0.9 × log (MFR) +0.9 or MT ≧ 15
It is more preferable to satisfy | fill, and it is still more preferable to satisfy | fill the following relational expressions.
log (MT) ≧ −0.9 × log (MFR) +1.1 or MT ≧ 15
Although it is not necessary to provide the upper limit of MT in particular, when MT exceeds 40 g, the take-up speed is remarkably slowed by the measurement method described above, and measurement becomes difficult. In such a case, since it is considered that the spreadability of the resin is also deteriorated, it is preferably 40 g or less, more preferably 35 g or less, and most preferably 30 g or less.

  In order to satisfy the relational expression of MT and MFR described above, the long chain branching amount of the polypropylene resin (X) may be increased to increase the melt tension. Selection of a preferable metallocene catalyst described later and a combination thereof, and This can be achieved by controlling the amount ratio and prepolymerization conditions to introduce a large amount of long chain branches.

7). Other Properties of Polypropylene Resin (X) Having Long Chain Branched Structure As a further additional feature of the polypropylene resin (X) having a long chain branched structure according to the present invention, the elongation viscosity at a strain rate of 0.1 s ⁻¹ is used. The strain hardening degree (λmax (0.1)) in the measurement is 6.0 or more.
The strain hardening degree (λmax (0.1)) is an index representing the strength at the time of melting, and when this value is large, there is an effect of improving the melt tension. As a result, neck-in at the time of melt extrusion can be suppressed, and the strain hardening degree is preferably 6.0 or more, more preferably 8.0 or more.

Details of the calculation method of λmax (0.1) are as follows.
The elongational viscosity at a temperature of 180 ° C. and the strain rate = 0.1 s ⁻¹ is plotted on a logarithmic graph with the horizontal axis representing time t (seconds) and the vertical axis representing elongational viscosity η _E (Pa · seconds). On the log-log graph, the viscosity immediately before strain hardening is approximated by a straight line.
Specifically, first, the slope at each time when the extensional viscosity is plotted against time is obtained. In this case, considering that the measurement data of the extensional viscosity is discrete, various averaging methods are used. Is used. For example, there is a method of obtaining the slope of adjacent data and taking a moving average of several surrounding points.
In the low strain region, the extensional viscosity is a simple increasing function, gradually approaches a constant value, and if there is no strain hardening, it agrees with the Truton viscosity after a sufficient amount of time. From about 1 strain amount (= strain rate × time), the extensional viscosity starts to increase with time. That is, the slope tends to decrease with time in the low strain region, but tends to increase from about 1 strain, and there is an inflection point on the curve when the extensional viscosity is plotted against time. . Therefore, a point where the slope of each time obtained above takes the minimum value in the range of the distortion amount of about 0.1 to 2.5 is obtained, and a tangent line is drawn at the point, and the straight line has a distortion amount of 4.0. Extrapolate until The maximum value (ηmax) of the extensional viscosity η _E until the strain amount becomes 4.0 is obtained, and the viscosity on the approximate straight line up to that time is η lin. ηmax / ηlin is defined as λmax (0.1).

The temperature is the endothermic peak top temperature when measured at a rate of 10 ° C./min.

8). Method for Producing Polypropylene Resin (X) Having Long-Chain Branched Structure Polypropylene resin (X) having a long-chain branched structure is not particularly limited as long as it satisfies the characteristics (X-i) to (X-vi) described above. Although not limited, as described above, it is preferable to satisfy all the conditions of low low crystalline component amount, high stereoregularity, relatively wide molecular weight distribution, range of branching index g ^′ , and high melt tension. The production method is a method using a macromer copolymerization method using a combination of metallocene catalysts.

It is possible to produce a polypropylene resin having a long-chain branched structure having the desired physical properties.

In the past, it was necessary to increase the branching efficiency by lowering the crystallinity by using a polypropylene component having a low stereoregularity. However, in the above method, a polypropylene component having a sufficiently high stereoregularity is required. The above (X-iii) and (X) can be introduced into the side chain by a simple method, and are preferable as the polypropylene resin (X) used in the present invention. It is suitable for satisfying the characteristics of X-ii).

(4) Catalyst formation / preliminary polymerization In the catalyst, the catalyst components (A) to (C) are brought into contact with each other in the (preliminary) polymerization tank simultaneously or continuously, or once or multiple times. Can be formed.
The contact of each component is usually carried out in an aliphatic hydrocarbon or aromatic hydrocarbon solvent. Although a contact temperature is not specifically limited, It is preferable to carry out between -20 degreeC and 150 degreeC. As the contact order, any desired combination can be used, but particularly preferable ones for each component are as follows.
When the catalyst component (C) is used, the catalyst component (A), the catalyst component (B), or the catalyst component (A) and the catalyst are brought into contact before the catalyst component (A) and the catalyst component (B) are brought into contact with each other.

The amount of catalyst components (A), (B) and (C) used is arbitrary. For example, the amount of the catalyst component (A) used relative to the catalyst component (B) is preferably in the range of 0.1 μmol to 1,000 μmol, particularly preferably 0.5 μmol to 500 μmol, relative to 1 g of the catalyst component (B). The amount of the catalyst component (C) relative to the catalyst component (A) is preferably a transition metal molar ratio of preferably 0.01 to 5 × 10 ⁶ , particularly preferably within a range of 0.1 to 1 × 10 ^4. .

The component [A-1] (compound represented by the general formula (a1)) and the component [A-2] (compound represented by the general formula (a1)) are used in a proportion of the polypropylene resin (X). The molar ratio of the transition metal of [A-1] to the total amount of the components [A-1] and [A-2] is preferably within a range satisfying the above characteristics, but is preferably 0.30 or more, 0.0. 99 or less.
By changing this ratio, it is possible to adjust the balance between melt physical properties and catalyst activity. That is, from the component [A-1], a low molecular weight terminal vinyl macromer is produced, and from the component [A-2], a high molecular weight body obtained by copolymerizing a part of the macromer is produced. Therefore, by changing the ratio of the component [A-1], the average molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, bias of the molecular weight distribution toward the high molecular weight side, very high molecular weight component, branch (amount, length, Distribution) can be controlled, whereby the melt properties such as branching index g ′, strain hardening degree λmax, melt tension, and spreadability can be controlled.

In addition, by using component [A-1] within the above range, it is possible to adjust the balance between the average molecular weight and the catalytic activity with respect to the amount of hydrogen.

  The catalyst is preferably subjected to a prepolymerization treatment which consists of contacting it with an olefin and polymerizing it in a small amount. By performing the prepolymerization treatment, gel formation can be prevented when the main polymerization is performed. The reason is considered to be that long-chain branches can be uniformly distributed among the polymer particles when the main polymerization is performed, and the melt physical properties can be improved thereby.

The olefin used in the prepolymerization is not particularly limited, but propylene, ethylene, 1-butene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, 4-methyl-1-pentene, 3-methyl-1-butene, vinylcycloalkane, Styrene and the like can be exemplified.

(5) Use of Catalyst / Propylene Polymerization Any polymerization mode can be used as long as the olefin polymerization catalyst including the catalyst component (A), the catalyst component (B), and the catalyst component (C) is in efficient contact with the monomer. Can be adopted.
Specifically, a slurry method using an inert solvent, a so-called bulk method using a propylene as a solvent without using an inert solvent as a solvent, a solution polymerization method, or a monomer without using a liquid solvent substantially. A gas phase method can be used. Moreover, the method of performing continuous polymerization and batch type polymerization is also applied. In addition to single-stage polymerization, it is possible to carry out multistage polymerization of two or more stages.
In the case of slurry polymerization, a saturated aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon such as hexane, heptane, pentane, cyclohexane, benzene, toluene, or the like is used alone or as a polymerization solvent.

The polymerization temperature is usually 0 ° C. or higher and 150 ° C. or lower. In particular, when bulk polymerization is used, the temperature is preferably 40 ° C or higher, more preferably 50 ° C or higher. The upper limit is preferably 80 ° C. or lower, and more preferably 75 ° C. or lower.

Also, by changing the amount of hydrogen used, in addition to the average molecular weight of the polymer to be produced, the molecular weight distribution, the deviation of the molecular weight distribution toward the high molecular weight side, very high molecular weight components, branching (amount, length, Distribution) can be controlled, whereby the melt physical properties characterizing polypropylene having a long chain branching structure such as MFR, branching index, strain hardening degree, melt tension MT, and spreadability can be controlled.
Therefore, hydrogen should be used at a molar ratio to propylene of 1.0 × 10 ⁻⁶ or more, preferably 1.0 × 10 ⁻⁵ or more, more preferably 1.0 × 10 ⁻⁴ or more. Is good. Moreover, regarding an upper limit, it is good to use at 1.0 * 10 ^<-2> or less, Preferably it is 0.9 * 10 ^<-2> or less, More preferably, it is 0.8 * 10 ^<-2> or less.

In addition to the propylene monomer, copolymerization using an α-olefin comonomer having 2 to 20 carbon atoms excluding propylene, for example, ethylene and / or 1-butene as a comonomer may be performed depending on the application.

Is more preferable, it is 10 mol% or less, More preferably, it is 7 mol% or less.

  When propylene is polymerized using the catalyst and polymerization method exemplified here, one end of the polymer is mainly propenyl from the active species derived from the catalyst component [A-1] by a special chain transfer reaction generally called β-methyl elimination. The structure is shown and so-called macromers are produced. This macromer can generate a higher molecular weight and is taken into the active species derived from the catalyst component [A-2] having a better copolymerization property, and it is considered that the macromer copolymerization proceeds. Therefore, it is considered that the comb chain is the main branch structure of the polypropylene resin having a long chain branch structure to be generated.

1. Evaluation method (1) Melt flow rate MFR:
Measured in accordance with JIS K7210: 1999, Method A, Condition M (230 ° C., 2.16 kg load). The unit is g / 10 minutes.
(2) Melt tension MT:

・ Cylinder diameter: 9.55mm
・ Cylinder extrusion speed: 20 mm / min ・ Pickup speed: 4.0 m / min ・ Temperature: 230 ° C.
When the MT is extremely high, the resin may break at a take-up speed of 4.0 m / min. In such a case, the take-up speed is lowered and the tension at the highest speed at which the take-up can be taken is MT. And The unit is gram.

(3) Molecular weight distributions Mw / Mn and Mz / Mw:

(5) CFC 40 ° C. soluble matter:
The measurement was carried out by the cross fractionation method under the following conditions.
