Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application claims priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2015-025727 (filing date: Feb. 12, 2015), the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.


The present invention relates to a novel phosphorous acid compound, a method for producing said compound, and use of said compound as a stabilizer for organic materials.


BACKGROUND ART

It is known that organic materials such as thermoplastic resins, thermosetting resins, natural or synthetic rubbers, mineral oils, lubricants, adhesives, and paints are deteriorated through the action of heat, oxygen or the like during production or use, which are accompanied by deterioration in strength and physical properties, changes in flowability, coloring, and deterioration in surface physical properties of the organic materials attributable to phenomena including molecular cleavage and molecular crosslinkage, resulting in great impairment of their commercial values.


In order to prevent deterioration by heat or oxygen, various phenol antioxidants and various phosphorus antioxidants have been developed in the past. It has been known that organic materials can be stabilized by adding them to the organic materials. However, phosphorus acid antioxidants conventionally used may sometimes have an insufficient effect on deterioration by heat or oxygen and therefore compounds having a more stabilizing effect have been desired.


As a material which solves the problem of phosphorus antioxidants, cyclic phosphites having a carbonyloxyalkylene group are proposed (Patent Document 1). Although stabilizing effects by cyclic phosphites have been improved compared with those by phosphorus antioxidants, they were not satisfactory.


Furthermore, cyclic phosphorous acid esters whose stabilizing effects against deterioration by heat or oxygen have been more improved are also proposed (Patent Document 2).

Example 1: Production of Phosphorous Acid Compound Shown by Formula (I-1): Bis{3-(3-t-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)propyl}phosphonate

According to the method described in JP 4013810 B, a phenol compound shown by formula (II-1): 3(3-t-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)propanol was synthesized.


In a flask equipped with a thermometer, a stirrer and a cooling tube, 13.34 g (60 mmol) of the compound shown by the formula (II-1), and 50 mL of dichloromethane were charged, and, under a nitrogen atmosphere, 4.12 g (30 mmol) of phosphorous trichloride was allowed to flow thereinto at 15-29° C. under ice cooling. Subsequently, 6.27 g (62 mmol) of triethylamine was added dropwise at 25-26° C. After the dropwise addition, 25 mL of dichloromethane was added and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. The mixture was subjected to distillation at 40° C. or less under reduced pressure. To the resultant residue, 200 mL of diethyl ether was added to precipitate triethylamine hydrochloride. The precipitated triethylamine hydrochloride was removed by filtration. A filtrate was distilled under reduced pressure at 40° C. or less, and the concentrated residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain 2.91 g of a phosphorous acid compound shown by the formula (I-1).

[Stabilizing Effect on Polyethylene]


Example 2

To 100 parts by mass of a linear low-density polyethylene (“GA401” manufactured by SUMITOMO CHEMICAL COMPANY, LIMITED) were added 0.10 part by mass of a phosphorous acid compound obtained in Example 1 as an antioxidant and 0.05 part by mass of calcium stearate, and the mixture was dry blended. Then, the resultant blended product was granulated at 190° C. using a 30 mm-diameter single screw extruder to obtain pellets. Thereafter, the pellets were charged in the single screw extruder again to repeat an operation of extruding them 5 times at 230° C. MFR values of the pellets before performing extrusion at 230° C. (0 time), and after extrusion once, three times and five times were measured at 190° C., and 21.18 N (a 2.16 kg load) using a “Melt Indexer L246-3537” manufactured by TECHNO SEVEN CO., LTD. In Table 1, an MFR value for 0 time, and an MFR value after the extrusion operation 5 times are shown. Here, it is known that in the low-density polyethylene, crosslinking proceeds by extrusion leading to deterioration. This phenomenon can be observed as a reduction in the MFR value. Therefore, when the MFR value is maintained without being reduced even if the extrusion operation is repeated, this demonstrates that crosslinking of polyethylene is inhibited, and that polyethylene is high in processing stability.


Comparative Example 1

MFR measurement was performed in the same manner as in Example 2, except that the phosphorous acid compound was not added. The obtained results are shown in Table 1.

[Stabilizing Effect on Polypropylene]


Example 3

To 100 parts by mass of a homopolypropylene (“HS200” manufactured by SUMITOMO CHEMICAL COMPANY, LIMITED) were added 0.10 part by mass of the phosphorous acid compound obtained in Example 1 as the antioxidant and 0.05 part by mass of calcium stearate, and the mixture was dry blended. Then, the resultant blended product was granulated at 230° C. using a 30 mm-diameter single screw extruder to obtain pellets. Thereafter, MFR values of pellets were measured at 230° C., and 21.18 N (a 2.16 kg load) using a “Melt Indexer L246-3537” manufactured by TECHNO SEVEN CO., LTD. The obtained results are shown in Table 2. Here, it is known that decomposition of the polypropylene chain proceeds by extrusion leading to deterioration. This phenomenon can be observed as an increase in the MFR value. Therefore, when the MFR value is maintained without being increased even if the extrusion operation is performed, this demonstrates that decomposition of polypropylene is inhibited, and that polypropylene is high in processing stability.

The MFR measurement was performed in the same manner as in Example 3, except that the phosphorous acid compound was not added. The results obtained are shown in Table 2.
