Description

  The present invention relates to a flame retardant polyolefin resin composition. Specifically, the present invention relates to a polyolefin resin composition having excellent flame retardancy even in a thin-walled material.

  Polyvinyl chloride resin and its resin composition are excellent in electrical insulation and have self-extinguishing flame retardant properties, so they are widely used in wire coverings, tubes, tapes, building materials, automobile parts, home appliance parts, etc. . However, since polyvinyl chloride resin contains chlorine in its molecular structure, it generates hydrogen chloride gas, which is a corrosive gas during combustion, and may generate toxic gases such as dioxins depending on the combustion conditions. . For this reason, as a part of countermeasures against recent environmental problems, materials that do not contain halogens (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “halogen-free materials”) that hardly generate these toxic gases during combustion are used. Tend to be.

Examples of the halogen-free material include polyolefin resins typified by polypropylene and polyethylene and styrene resins. However, since these resins are easily combustible, they need to be flame retardant depending on the application. As a countermeasure, a method of adding a halogen-based flame retardant has been used for a long time. However, a halogen-based flame retardant also has a problem of generating a toxic gas at the time of combustion. Recently, as a non-halogen-based flame retardant, magnesium hydroxide or water is used. A technique of blending a metal hydroxide such as aluminum oxide is employed.
These flame retardant resin compositions containing magnesium hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide, etc. can prevent the generation of halogen gas during combustion, but in order to obtain the required flame retardant performance, a large amount of flame retardant is filled. There is a problem that the physical properties of the resin composition are inferior and the molding processing properties are inferior due to the influence.

On the other hand, phosphoric ester-based flame retardants such as triphenyl phosphate (TPP) are used as flame retardants that do not contain halogens. However, these are highly volatile, and gold is added to the resin when it is extruded. There are problems such as contamination of the mold and oozing out on the surface of the molded product, thereby impairing the appearance. Therefore, the use of condensed phosphoric esters having low volatility has been proposed, but these flame retarding effects are still insufficient.
Therefore, in recent years, in order to meet the above requirements, as a flame retardant mainly composed of a specific phosphate, a surface expansion layer is formed at the time of combustion, and flame retardancy is suppressed by suppressing the diffusion and heat transfer of decomposition products. Intomesent flame retardants have been proposed (Patent Document 1). Although intomescent flame retardants have excellent flame retardancy, they have problems such as poor dispersion in resins due to secondary aggregation and deterioration of hygroscopicity due to hydrolysis, but phosphoric acid having a specific molecular structure. Improvements have been made by co-adding compounds such as ester, silicone oil, polycarbodiimide, etc. (Patent Documents 2 to 4).

As described in the above background art, it is possible to obtain a flame retardant polyolefin resin composition having good flame resistance, heat resistance, and water resistance by adding an intumescent flame retardant to a polyolefin resin. . However, in each of the above-mentioned patent documents, a test using a test piece having a thickness of 1.6 mm is performed in the UL94V combustion test, and no evaluation is made when a test piece having a thin thickness is used.
On the other hand, in the electric wire field, flame retardancy is often required for thinner molded products. Therefore, as a result of the inventors confirming the above-mentioned patent document, the test piece having a thickness of about 0.5 to 1.0 mm spreads quickly and it is difficult to maintain high flame retardancy. It has been found that dripping is also likely to occur.

Therefore, a material having good flame retardancy is expected even when a thin test piece having a thickness of about 0.5 to 1.0 mm is used in a combustion test such as UL94V. It has not been clear so far whether this can be achieved.

When MFR exceeds the above upper limit, the extrusion moldability of the obtained flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to be lowered. If the MFR is less than the above lower limit, the fluidity is insufficient, so that the moldability of the obtained flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to be lowered.
In the present invention, ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid ester copolymers may be used alone or in combination of two or more having different copolymerization ratios or different MFRs. In addition, the said (meth) acrylic acid ester content in the case of using together 2 or more types of ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid ester copolymers means an average value. That is, the average value may be in the numerical range, but it is particularly preferable that each ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid ester copolymer is in the numerical range.

<Component (B)>
In the present invention, the component (B) means a polyolefin resin. The polyolefin resin used as the component (B) is not limited. For example, homopolymers such as ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, and the like, or each of them and 3-methyl-1-butene, 1-pentene, 4-methyl-1 -Other α-olefins having about 2 to 20 carbon atoms such as pentene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, 1-decene, vinyl acetate, vinyl alcohol, (meth) acrylic acid, (meth) acrylic acid ester, etc. And the like. Here, (meth) acrylic acid means acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, and the same applies to (meth) acrylate. The component (B) does not include those included in the component (A).

Specific examples of the polyolefin resin include, for example, low, medium and high density polyethylene (branched or linear) ethylene homopolymer, ethylene-propylene copolymer, ethylene-1-butene copolymer, ethylene- 4-methyl-1-pentene copolymer, ethylene-1-hexene copolymer, ethylene-1-octene copolymer, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (including saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer), Ethylene resins such as ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid copolymers; propylene resins such as propylene homopolymers, propylene-ethylene copolymers, propylene-ethylene-1-butene copolymers; and 1-butene homopolymers 1-butene resins such as 1-butene-ethylene copolymer and 1-butene-propylene copolymer; ring-opening metathesis of norbornene Polymers and norbornene derivatives - such as a so-called cyclic polyolefin resins such as ethylene copolymers.

The flexural modulus of the polyolefin resin is not limited, but the lower limit is usually 500 MPa or more, preferably 800 MPa or more. If the flexural modulus of the polyolefin resin is less than the lower limit, sufficient flame retardancy may not be obtained. This is probably because polyolefin resins having a low flexural modulus generally have a low crystallinity or a low melting point, so that drip is likely to occur during combustion.

When the propylene monomer unit constituting the propylene-based resin is set to the lower limit value or more, the expression of flame retardancy of the obtained flame retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to be optimized. In addition, the upper limit of content of a propylene monomer unit is not limited, 100 weight%, ie, a propylene homopolymer, can also be used suitably.

Among these, as a propylene-type resin, a propylene / ethylene copolymer, a propylene / 1-butene copolymer, and a propylene / ethylene / 1-butene copolymer are preferable.

The chain form in the case of using a copolymer as the propylene-based resin is not limited and may be any of a block copolymer, a random copolymer, a graft copolymer, and the like. Moreover, a well-known thing can also be employ | adopted suitably for the catalyst used for superposition | polymerization.
In addition, as the propylene-based resin, these resins may be modified with an unsaturated carboxylic acid such as maleic anhydride, maleic acid, or acrylic acid or a derivative thereof, an unsaturated silane compound, or the like. Furthermore, you may have a crosslinked structure partially.
These propylene resins may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

Is 0.5 g / 10 min or more, preferably 50 g / 10 min or less, more preferably 30 g / 10 min or less, still more preferably 10 g / 10 min or less. If the MFR of the propylene resin is less than the lower limit, the fluidity is too low and molding tends to be difficult. If the MFR exceeds the upper limit, the fluidity is too high and molding tends to be difficult. is there.

  The bending elastic modulus of the propylene-based resin is not limited, but the lower limit is usually 500 MPa or more, preferably 800 MPa or more. If the flexural modulus of the propylene-based resin is less than the lower limit, sufficient flame retardancy may not be obtained.

Moreover, although the upper limit of the bending elastic modulus of propylene-type resin is not limited, Usually, it is 2200 MPa or less, It is desirable that it is 2000 MPa or less.

[Ethylene resin]
As polyolefin resin used as a component (B), ethylene-type resin can also be used suitably.

By setting the content of the (meth) acrylic acid ester within the above range, expression of flame retardancy of the obtained flame retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to be optimized.

The vinyl acetate content in the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention is not limited, but it is usually 1 to 45% by weight, preferably 2 to 30% by weight. By setting the vinyl acetate content within the above range, the flame retardant expression of the obtained flame retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to be optimized.
The (meth) acrylic acid ester content in the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention is not limited, but it is usually 1 to 45% by weight, preferably 2 to 30% by weight. By setting the content of the (meth) acrylic acid ester within the above range, expression of flame retardancy of the obtained flame retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to be optimized.

Content in the resin composition in the case of using these together as a component (A) means the total amount of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and an ethylene- (meth) acrylic acid ester copolymer.
The blending ratio when using an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and an ethylene- (meth) acrylate copolymer in combination as the component (A) is arbitrary, but the vinyl acetate content or the component ( It is desirable that at least one of the (meth) acrylic acid ester contents in A) is adjusted to be in the above numerical range.

By setting the content of the component (B) in the resin composition within the above range, the resulting flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to have good flame resistance and heat resistance, particularly drip resistance during combustion. There is.

In the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention, the total content of component (C) and component (D) is not limited, but is usually 15 to 60% by weight, preferably 20 to 50% by weight, more preferably 25. ~ 45 wt%.

  In the flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention, the content of the component (E) is not limited, but is usually 0.5 to 40% by weight, preferably 1 to 30% by weight, more preferably 2 to 20% by weight. It is. By making content of the component (E) in a resin composition into the said range, there exists a tendency for the flame retardance of the flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition of this invention to become favorable.

The content rate of the component (E) with respect to the total amount of the component (C) and the component (D) in the flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition of this invention is 1 to 70 weight%. It is obtained in any case where the content ratio of the component (E) with respect to the total amount of the component (C) and the component (D) is less than the above lower limit value and exceeds the above upper limit value.

The content ratio of the component (E) with respect to the total amount of the component (C) and the component (D) is preferably 5 to 65% by weight, more preferably 10 to 60% by weight for the same reason as described above.

  In the present invention, by using the components (C) and (D) and the component (E) in the above composition range, the obtained flame retardant polyolefin resin composition exhibits good flame resistance and heat resistance. Is possible. When the content ratio of the component (E) with respect to the total amount of the component (C) and the component (D) is less than the lower limit value, the drip suppression effect is not sufficiently exhibited, so that good flame retardancy cannot be exhibited. On the other hand, when the content ratio of the component (E) exceeds the above upper limit value, it becomes difficult to form a foamed carbonized film by inhibiting foaming of the resin during combustion, which is difficult due to the component (C) and the component (D). Since the flame effect is not sufficiently exhibited, good flame retardancy and heat resistance cannot be exhibited.

In the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention, the content in the case of containing a resin as other components is not limited, but is usually 10 to 65% by weight, preferably 15 to 35% by weight in the resin composition. is there. When content of resin exceeds the said upper limit, the flame retardance of the resin composition obtained may become inadequate.
The content of the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention when it contains an additive as another component is not limited, but is usually 0.1 to 10% by weight in the resin composition, preferably 0.5. ~ 5% by weight. When content of an additive exceeds the said upper limit, the flame retardance of the resin composition obtained may fall. In addition, when using the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention as a master batch, these other components may be contained at a concentration of 2 to 50 times, preferably 3 to 30 times the content described above. it can.

  Although the melt flow rate (MFR) of the flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention is not limited, the value measured at 230 ° C. and 21.2 N load is usually 0.2 to 60 g / 10 according to JIS K7210 (1999). Minutes, preferably 0.5 to 30 g / 10 minutes, more preferably 1 to 20 g / 10 minutes. When MFR exceeds the above upper limit, the extrudability of the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to decrease. If the MFR is less than the above lower limit, the fluidity is insufficient, and the moldability of the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition tends to be reduced.

  Since the flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention has good flame retardancy, it can be used as a suitable molded article in applications where flame retardancy at the V-0 level of UL-94V is desired. In particular, even in the case of a molded product having a small thickness, it exhibits good flame retardancy, so a test piece having a thickness of 1.0 mm can have flame retardancy of V-0 level. Even a test piece having a thickness of 0.7 mm, particularly a thickness of 0.5 mm, can have flame retardancy of V-0 level.

  Thus, as a factor that the flame retardancy of the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention is good, the combustibility is suppressed when the resin composition or a molded product obtained from the resin composition comes into contact with a fire source. At the same time, the drip phenomenon during combustion is significantly suppressed. When the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention comes into contact with a fire source, the foaming of the resin occurs at an early stage, but the foamed resin is appropriately carbonized to block heat conduction to the inside. It is considered that good combustibility can be exhibited even in the case of a thin molded product. This effect uses the component (A) and the component (B) as essential components as a resin component, the component (C) and the component (D) as essential components as a flame retardant, and further uses the component (E) as a filler. This is considered to be a synergistic effect.

<Method for Producing Flame Retardant Polyolefin Resin Composition>

The mixing method is not particularly limited as long as the raw material components are uniformly dispersed. That is, a resin composition in which each component is uniformly distributed can be obtained by mixing the above-described raw material components simultaneously or in any order.
For more uniform mixing / dispersion, it is preferable to melt and mix a predetermined amount of the above raw material components. For example, the raw material components of the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention are mixed in an arbitrary order. Or may be mixed while sequentially melting all the raw material components, etc., or each raw material may be appropriately blended (dry blended) at the time of molding when producing the desired molded product and melt mixed. .

  The mixing method and mixing conditions are not particularly limited as long as each raw material component is uniformly mixed, but from the viewpoint of productivity, the raw materials are mixed using, for example, a tumbler blender, V blender, ribbon blender, Henschel mixer, etc. A melt kneading method using a continuous kneader such as a single screw extruder or a twin screw extruder and a batch kneader such as a mill roll, a Banbury mixer, or a pressure kneader is preferable. The production conditions for producing the resin composition by these methods are not limited, and can be appropriately set under known conditions. The temperature at the time of melt mixing may be a temperature at which at least one of the respective raw material components is in a molten state, but usually a temperature at which all the components used are melted is selected, and is generally performed at 150 to 250 ° C.

There is no limitation in the molded product obtained from the flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention, and it can be various extrusion molded products, injection molded products, and the like. Therefore, the method for molding the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, such as extrusion molding, compression molding, injection molding and the like. The molding temperature is not limited as long as it is higher than the melting temperature of the resin composition, but is preferably 150 ° C to 220 ° C. If the molding temperature is higher than the lower limit, the melted resin composition has high fluidity, and a molded product having a desired shape can be easily obtained. Further, if the molding temperature is lower than the upper limit, molding defects due to alteration of the flame retardant hardly occur. In particular, extrusion molding is desirable from the viewpoint of fluidity in the molten state of the resin composition.

  The use of the molded product obtained by using the flame retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, but it has excellent flame resistance, mechanical properties, heat resistance, and has an excellent appearance.

<UL-94V combustion test>
A test piece (length: 127 mm, width: 12.7 mm, thickness is either 0.5 mm, 0.7 mm, or 1.0 mm) obtained by an electric press is kept vertical, and a burner is fired at the lower end. After 10 seconds of indirect flame, the flame was removed, and the time for the fire that ignited the test piece to extinguish was measured. Next, at the same time that the fire was extinguished, the second flame contact was performed for 10 seconds, and the time when the ignited fire extinguished was measured in the same manner as the first time. Furthermore, it was evaluated whether or not the cotton installed under the test piece was ignited by the falling fire type.
From the results of the first and second burning times and the presence or absence of cotton ignition, the flammability was evaluated according to the UL-94V standard. Combustion performance was good in the order of V-0, V-1, and V-2, and "X" was inferior to V-2.

  From the results of Table-1 to Table-3, the flame-retardant polyolefin resin composition of the present invention has UL94V combustion regardless of whether the thickness of the test piece is 0.5 mm, 0.7 mm, or 1.0 mm.
