Description

The present invention relates to a composite material member made of polyaryletherketone, which can be applied to a composite material in electric / electronic equipment, automobiles, aircraft, etc., and a composite material and a moving body using the composite material member. The present invention also relates to a method for producing a film.

In recent years, as a film for applications such as electrical and electronic equipment, automobiles, and aircraft, it has excellent heat resistance, mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and durability. Therefore, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polyetherimidesulfone (PEI) ), Polyetherketone (PES), polyetherketone (PEK), polyetherketoneketone (PEKK), polyetherketoneetherketoneketone (PEKEKK), and other super-engineering plastics have become widely adopted. It's coming.

Among them, polyetheretherketone is used as a matrix material for fiber reinforced materials because it has excellent heat resistance, mechanical properties, chemical resistance and the like. It is necessary to crystallize the resin in order to fully exhibit these characteristics, but if the crystallinity is too high, there is a problem that durability and impact resistance are lowered, and these are used as fiber reinforced materials. Further improvement in physical properties was required.

Patent Document 1 discloses a composite material in which a polyetheretherketone is used as a matrix and a fiber sized by a polyethersulfone is used as a reinforcing material. Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin prepreg using a polyarylketone resin composition having a specific intrinsic viscosity.

The narrow molecular weight distribution means that the proportion of low molecular weight components that can be crystal nucleating agents is small, and the crystallinity is kept low even when crystallized, resulting in high durability and impact resistance. It becomes a tendency to become. Further, in the case of producing a film, if the raw material contains a large amount of low molecular weight components, the low molecular weight components may adhere to the cast roll and be transferred to the film, thereby impairing the appearance of the film. Since the molecular weight distribution is narrow and the proportion of low molecular weight components is small, the cast roll is prevented from being soiled, and a film having an excellent appearance can be easily obtained. Further, when manufacturing a composite material with reinforcing fibers, there is an advantage that the problem of contaminating the manufacturing equipment due to volatilization of low molecular weight components is unlikely to occur.

The molecular weight and the molecular weight distribution can be determined by gel permeation chromatography using an eluate in which the resin component to be used dissolves. For example, a mixture of chlorophenol as an eluent and halogenated benzenes such as chlorobenzene, chlorotoluene, bromobenzene, bromotoluene, dichlorobenzene, dichlorotoluene, dibromobenzene, and dibromotoluene, and pentafluorophenol as an eluent. A mixed solution of chloroform can be used.

(4) Subsequently, the mixture is taken out from the heat block, allowed to cool, and then 6 g of chloroform at room temperature (about 23 ° C.) is gently added little by little and shaken gently.
(5) After that, the sample obtained by filtering with a 0.45 μm PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) cartridge filter was subjected to gel permeation chromatography to have a number average molecular weight (Mn), a mass average molecular weight (Mw), and a molecular weight. The distribution (Mw / Mn) is measured.

Is particularly preferred. When the crystal melting temperature of the polyaryletherketone is at least the above lower limit value, the obtained composite material member tends to have excellent heat resistance. On the other hand, the crystal melting temperature of the polyaryletherketone, particularly the polyetheretherketone, is preferably 370 ° C. or lower, more preferably 365 ° C. or lower, further preferably 360 ° C. or lower, and 355 ° C. or lower. Is particularly preferable, and 350 ° C. or lower is most preferable. When the crystal melting temperature of the polyaryletherketone is not more than the upper limit value, the fluidity at the time of melt molding such as at the time of manufacturing a member for a composite material tends to be excellent.

The crystal melting temperature of the polyaryletherketone, especially the polyetheretherketone, is in the temperature range 25 using a differential scanning calorimeter (for example, “Pyris1 DSC” manufactured by Perkin Elmer) in accordance with JIS K7121: 2012. It can be obtained from the peak top temperature of the melting peak of the detected DSC curve by raising the temperature at ~ 400 ° C. and a heating rate of 10 ° C./min.

The heat of crystal melting of the polyaryletherketone, particularly the polyetheretherketone, is preferably 30 J / g or more, more preferably 31 J / g or more, further preferably 32 J / g or more, and 33 J / g.

When the crystallization temperature in the temperature lowering process of the polyaryletherketone is at least the above lower limit value, the crystallization rate is high and the productivity of the composite material member tends to be excellent. Specifically, for example, in the case of producing a film, by setting the cast roll to a temperature equal to or higher than the glass transition temperature and lower than the crystal melting temperature, crystallization is promoted while the resin is in contact with the cast roll. A crystallized film can be obtained, but if the crystallization temperature in the temperature lowering process is equal to or higher than the lower limit, the crystallization rate is high and the crystallization can be completed with a cast roll, resulting in a high elastic coefficient, resulting in a roll. The sticking of the film is suppressed, and the appearance of the film tends to be improved.

It is particularly preferable that the temperature is 302 ° C. or lower. If the crystallization temperature in the temperature lowering process is equal to or lower than the upper limit, the crystallization is not too fast, so that the cooling unevenness at the time of molding a member for a composite material such as a film is reduced, and the crystallization is uniformly crystallized for a high quality composite material. There is a tendency to obtain members.

The crystallization temperature of the polyaryletherketone, especially the polyetheretherketone in the temperature lowering process, is determined by using a differential scanning calorimeter (for example, "Pyris1 DSC" manufactured by PerkinElmer) in accordance with JIS K7121: 2012. The temperature is lowered at a temperature range of 400 to 25 ° C. and a rate of 10 ° C./min, and the temperature can be obtained from the peak top temperature of the detected crystallization peak of the DSC curve.

The method for producing a polyaryletherketone having a molecular weight distribution of 2 or more and less than 4 and a mass average molecular weight of 63000 or more, particularly a polyetheretherketone, is not particularly limited, and can be produced by a known production method. In the production, the conditions for obtaining the desired molecular weight distribution and mass average molecular weight may be appropriately selected and adopted. Specifically, for example, the type, amount, and concentration of the monomer, polymerization initiator, catalyst, chain transfer agent added as needed, the method of addition of each, the polymerization temperature, and the polymerization time can be adjusted. , Adopting a method of adjusting polymerization conditions such as polymerization pressure.

Appearance defects tend to be less likely to occur. The lower limit of the heat shrinkage rate of this member is not particularly limited and is preferably 0%, but may be 0.1% or 0.2%.
The heat shrinkage rate is determined by marking a test piece with a size of 120 mm × 120 mm cut out from this member in the form of a film or the like at intervals of 100 mm in the direction (TD) orthogonal to the resin flow direction (MD).

Measurements are made for each of the resin flow direction (MD) and the direction orthogonal to the resin flow direction (MD), and the one with the larger stress value is defined as the heat shrinkage stress of the present invention.

The shape of this member is not particularly limited and may be any shape such as a film, a plate, a fiber, a bottle, a tube, a rod, a powder, a pellet, etc., but it is preferably a film, a plate, a fiber, and the like. , A plate is more preferable, and a film is further preferable. When this member is a plate-shaped member, the "plate-shaped" of the plate-shaped member means a flat shape having an arbitrary maximum thickness, and not only a so-called plate having a thickness of 1 mm or more but also a film having a thickness of less than 1 mm. The purpose is to include. As the plate-shaped member, a thin plate-like member is preferable, the thickness thereof is preferably 2 mm or less, more preferably less than 1 mm, further preferably 500 μm or less, particularly preferably 400 μm or less, particularly preferably 300 μm or less, and most preferably 250 μm or less. The lower limit is usually 3 μm.
When a powder, pellet or the like is used, the raw material resin may be used as it is, or it may be processed into a powder or pellet.

In each molding method, the apparatus and processing conditions are not particularly limited, and a known method can be adopted. In particular, from the viewpoint of processability when forming a composite material with a reinforcing fiber described later, it is preferable that the member is a composite material made into a film by an extrusion molding method, particularly a T-die method.

In the present invention, the film includes a sheet. Generally, a film is a thin flat product whose thickness is extremely small compared to its length and width and whose maximum thickness is arbitrarily limited, and is usually supplied in the form of a roll (Japanese Industrial Standards). JIS K6900: 1994), a sheet generally refers to a product that is thin by definition in JIS and whose thickness is generally small for its length and width and is flat. However, since the boundary between the sheet and the film is not clear, the film includes the sheet in the present invention. Therefore, the "film" may be a "sheet".

<Film manufacturing method>
When this member is a film, the method for producing the film is not particularly limited, and for example, it can be obtained as a non-stretched or stretched film. From the viewpoint of secondary processability in producing a composite material, it is preferable to obtain it as a non-stretched film. The non-stretched film is a film that is not positively stretched for the purpose of controlling the orientation of the film. It also includes films with a magnification of less than 2x.

In the case of a non-stretched film, it can be produced by melt-kneading the constituent materials of the film, extrusion molding, and cooling. A known kneader such as a single-screw or twin-screw extruder can be used for melt-kneading. The melting temperature is appropriately adjusted according to the type and mixing ratio of the resin, the presence or absence of additives, and the type, but from the viewpoint of productivity and the like, it is preferably 320 ° C. or higher, and more preferably 340 ° C. or higher. It is preferably 350 ° C. or higher, more preferably 360 ° C. or higher, and particularly preferably 360 ° C. or higher. By setting the resin temperature to the above lower limit value or more, the crystals of the raw material such as pellets are sufficiently melted and are less likely to remain on the film, so that the folding resistance and the puncture impact strength are likely to be improved. On the other hand, the melting temperature is preferably 450 ° C. or lower, more preferably 430 ° C. or lower, further preferably 410 ° C. or lower, and particularly preferably 390 ° C. or lower. By setting the resin temperature to the above upper limit value or less, the resin is less likely to be decomposed during melt molding and the molecular weight is easily maintained, so that the number of times the film is folded and the puncture impact strength tend to be improved.

Cooling can be performed, for example, by bringing the molten resin into contact with a cooler such as a cooled cast roll. The cooling temperature (eg, the temperature of the cast roll) depends on whether a crystallized film is made or a completely uncrystallized film is made. When producing a crystallized film, the cooling temperature may be appropriately selected so as to obtain a desired crystallinity. The cooling temperature is preferably 30 to 150 ° C. higher than the glass transition temperature of the resin component contained in the present member, more preferably 35 to 140 ° C. higher, and 40 to 135 ° C. higher. It is particularly preferable to have. By setting the cooling temperature within the above range, the cooling rate of the film can be slowed down, and the relative crystallinity tends to be increased.
For example, when polyetheretherketone is contained as a resin component, the cooling temperature (cast roll temperature) is preferably 180 ° C. or higher, more preferably 190 ° C. or higher, and even more preferably 200 ° C. or higher.
When a film having a higher crystallinity is obtained, the cooling temperature (cast roll temperature) is particularly preferably 210 ° C. or higher, and most preferably 220 ° C. or higher. On the other hand, the cooling temperature (cast roll temperature) is preferably 300 ° C. or lower, more preferably 280 ° C. or lower, further preferably 270 ° C. or lower, particularly preferably 260 ° C. or lower, and 250 ° C. or lower. The temperature is particularly preferably ℃ or less, and most preferably 240 ℃ or less.

From the balance between the crystal nucleation rate and the growth rate, the crystallization rate of the polymer material is considered to be maximized in the temperature range between the glass transition temperature and the crystal melting temperature. When producing a film with a high degree of relative crystallinity, if the lower and upper limits of the cooling temperature (cast roll temperature) are applied, the crystallization rate is maximized and a highly productive crystallized film can be easily obtained. ..

On the other hand, when producing a film that is not completely crystallized, it is important to rapidly cool the film from the molten state to a glass transition temperature or lower to reduce the motility of the molecule to a region where crystals cannot grow.

In particular, when this member is a film, it can be suitably used as a material for composite with reinforcing fibers having a number average fiber length of 5 mm or more.

The type of reinforcing fiber having a number average fiber length of 5 mm or more is not particularly limited, but for example, inorganic fibers such as carbon fiber, glass fiber, boron fiber, and alumina fiber, liquid crystal polymer fiber, polyethylene fiber, and aramid fiber. Examples thereof include organic fibers such as polyparaphenylene benzoxazole fiber, metal fibers such as aluminum fiber, magnesium fiber, titanium fiber, SUS fiber, copper fiber, and metal-coated carbon fiber. Among these, carbon fiber is preferable from the viewpoint of rigidity and light weight.

Examples of carbon fibers include polyacrylonitrile (PAN) type, petroleum / coal pitch type, rayon type, lignin type and the like, and any carbon fiber can be used. In particular, among PAN-based carbon fibers made from PAN, strands or tows of 12,000 to 48,000 filaments are preferable because they are excellent in productivity and mechanical properties on an industrial scale.

The number average fiber length is 5 mm or more, preferably 10 mm or more, more preferably 20 mm or more, more preferably 30 mm or more, particularly preferably 40 mm or more, and particularly preferably 50 mm or more. Is the most preferable. It is also preferable that the reinforcing fibers are continuous fibers. By setting the number average fiber length to the above lower limit value or more, the mechanical properties of the obtained composite material tend to be sufficient. The upper limit of the number average fiber length is not particularly limited, but in the case of discontinuous fibers such as woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, and non-woven fabrics in which the shape of the reinforcing fibers is described later, the number average fiber length is preferably 500 mm or less, preferably 300 mm or less. It is more preferable that it is 150 mm or less, and it is further preferable that it is 150 mm or less. By setting the number average fiber length to the above upper limit or less, the filling property of the reinforcing fiber into the complicated shape portion when molding the final product, particularly the final product having a complicated shape, by using the composite material is made sufficient. It tends to be easy to suppress the occurrence of a decrease in the strength of the part.
The number average fiber length of the reinforcing fibers refers to the average length of the portion observed with the longest length when the reinforcing fibers are observed using an electron microscope such as a scanning electron microscope or an optical microscope. Specifically, it can be obtained by observing a cross section in which the length direction of the reinforcing fibers existing in the composite material can be observed and averaging the measured fiber lengths.

By adopting a conventionally known method, it is possible to produce a composite material such as a prepreg in which the present member is impregnated or semi-impregnated in a reinforcing fiber bundle or a reinforcing fiber sheet. Among these, in the present invention, it is preferable to adopt the resin film impregnation method (film stacking method).

Specifically, the resin component of the present member can be melted and impregnated in the reinforcing fiber sheet to form a prepreg by superimposing the present member on one side or both sides of the above-mentioned reinforcing fiber sheet and heating / pressurizing. At this time, by adjusting the heating and pressurizing conditions, it is possible to obtain a prepreg in which the amount of voids contained is controlled. The prepreg also includes a form in which the pressurizing step is omitted and the member is temporarily bonded to the reinforcing fiber sheet by heat fusion. In the case of a prepreg temporarily bonded in this way, particularly one containing a large amount of voids, there is an advantage that the time required for manufacturing can be shortened, which leads to a reduction in manufacturing cost, and because it has flexibility, it is easily deformed according to the actual shape. .. The above method can be preferably used when the present member is a film.

By subjecting this prepreg to known processes such as autoclave molding, infusion molding, heat and cool press molding, stamping molding, and automatic laminating molding by a robot, a composite material product can be obtained, and the molding conditions thereof are included. It can be selected according to the amount of voids. This member, such as a film used when producing a prepreg, is required to have secondary processability such as impregnation property into a reinforcing fiber sheet and heat fusion property. This member is made of poly with a specific molecular weight distribution and mass average molecular weight. Since it contains an aryl ether ketone, preferably a polyether ether ketone, and its crystallinity is appropriately suppressed, it is excellent in secondary processability, and the obtained composite material is also excellent in durability and impact resistance, so that it can be used particularly preferably. ..

Other details such as the physical properties of the polyaryletherketone, preferably the polyetheretherketone, are the same as those of the polyaryletherketone and the polyetheretherketone used for the above-mentioned composite material member, and thus the description thereof will be omitted here. ..

Specifically, the resin temperature at the outlet of the extruder is preferably 350 ° C. or higher, more preferably 360 ° C. or higher, further preferably 370 ° C. or higher, and particularly preferably 380 ° C. or higher. preferable. By setting the resin temperature at the outlet of the extruder to be equal to or higher than the lower limit, not only the pellets are sufficiently melted and the discharge is stable, but also the crystals of the pellets are sufficiently melted and hardly remain on the film.

On the other hand, the resin temperature at the outlet of the extruder is preferably 450 ° C. or lower, more preferably 430 ° C. or lower, and even more preferably 410 ° C. or lower.

The time can be adjusted, for example, by the distance from the base to the cast roll, and by shortening the distance, the time from the extrusion of the molten resin to the start of cooling can be shortened, while the time can be shortened. , The start of cooling can be delayed by increasing the distance. The distance may be appropriately adjusted in consideration of the resin temperature of the extruded molten resin, the temperature of the cast roll, etc., but the distance is preferably 5 mm or more, more preferably 7 mm or more, and 10 mm or more. It is more preferably 100 mm or less, more preferably 70 mm or less, and further preferably 50 mm or less.

(4) When a cast roll is used, the contact angle θ when the molten resin is brought into contact with the cast roll is adjusted. Instead of dropping the molten resin perpendicular to the contact point between the cast roll and the crimping roll, as shown in FIG. 1, the molten resin is dropped from the base by slightly shifting it toward the center of the cast roll and brought into contact with the cast roll. Problems such as waviness and wrinkles when the molten resin is cooled to form a film shape are less likely to occur, and a uniformly crystallized film can be easily obtained. As shown in FIG. 1, the contact angle θ is formed by a straight line connecting the contact point between the crimping roll 3 and the cast roll 4 and the base, and a vertical straight line (dotted line in FIG. 1) from the contact point. It refers to the angle to be formed, and θ is preferably 1 ° or more, more preferably 2 ° or more, further preferably 3 ° or more, preferably 10 ° or less, and 8 °. It is more preferably 5 ° or less, and further preferably 5 ° or less.

The film obtained by the production method of the present invention is excellent in durability, impact resistance, and productivity, and is therefore suitable as a material for combining a resin and reinforcing fibers, particularly reinforcing fibers having a number average fiber length of 5 mm or more. .. Further, the composite material obtained by combining the film obtained by the production method of the present invention with the reinforcing fiber is suitable for moving objects such as aircraft, automobiles, ships or railroad vehicles, and sports because of its heat resistance, light weight, mechanical strength and the like.
