The present invention relates to a polyarylene sulfide composition which has excellent chemical resistance, heat/cold resistance, fluidity and acid resistance in addition to heat resistance, mechanical strength and electrical insulation properties inherent in polyarylene sulfide, and is useful especially for making automobile parts or electric or electronic parts.
Polyarylene sulfide (hereinafter abbreviated as PAS) represented by poly(p-phenylene sulfide) (hereinafter abbreviated as PPS) has excellent mechanical characteristics, heat characteristics, electrical characteristics and chemical resistance and is widely used in many electric and electronic equipment members and automobile equipment members and office automation equipment members.
PAS improves greatly in mechanical strength, heat resistance and stiffness when filled with inorganic fibers such as glass fiber or inorganic particles such as calcium carbonate and talc. However, the incorporation of inorganic fiber or inorganic particles greatly sacrifices low-temperature impact resistance, heat/cold resistance and fluidity, and makes the surfaces of PAS molded products less resistant to certain strong acids. Because of these problems, PAS has only limited applications.
As an improvement of heat/cold resistance and chemical resistance, a PPS resin composition comprising PPS, a specific alumina and an ethylene copolymer is proposed (for example, in Patent Document 1).
The resin composition proposed in Patent Document 1 still has a problem with its mechanical strength, and it is difficult to achieve good mechanical characteristics, chemical resistance and heat/cold resistance simultaneously.
The present invention relates to a polyarylene sulfide composition having excellent mechanical characteristics, acid resistance and heat/cold resistance. Specifically speaking, the present invention aims to provide a polyarylene sulfide composition having these excellent characteristics useful for making electric or electronic parts of automobile parts.
As a result of their extensive study to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors found that a resin composition comprising polyarylene sulfide, an ethylene copolymer and a specific glass fiber in a specific ratio makes a polyarylene sulfide composition having good mechanical characteristic, acid resistance and cold/heat resistance, and accomplished the present invention.
Namely, the present invention provides the following [1] to [3].
The present invention provides a polyarylene sulfide composition with good acid resistance, heat/cold resistance and fluidity, which is useful for making automobile parts or electric or electronic parts, without sacrificing the heat resistance, mechanical strength and electrical insulation properties inherent in PAS.
Now, the present invention will be described in detail.
The polyarylene sulfide composition of the present invention comprises from 30 to 70 wt % of polyarylene sulfide (A), from 2 to 10 wt % of an ethylene polymer (B) and from 20 to 60 wt % of glass fiber (C) having a boron oxide content of at most 1.5 wt % and a fluorine content of at most 0.1 wt %.

Specific examples of such polyarylene sulfide include poly(p-phenylene sulfide), polyphenylene sulfide sulfone, polyphenylene sulfide ketone, polyphenylene sulfide ether and the like, and among them, poly(p-phenylene sulfide) is preferred particularly to make a polyarylene sulfide composition having excellent heat resistance and strength characteristics.
The polyarylene sulfide (A) may be produced by a known process for producing polyarylene sulfide, for example, by polymerizing an alkali metal sulfide and a polyhalogenated aromatic compound in a polar solvent.

The amount of the ethylene copolymer (B) is from 2 to 10 wt %, preferably from 3 to 8 wt %, in order to make a polyarylene sulfide composition with excellent heat/cold resistance and molding fluidity. If the amount of the ethylene copolymer (B) is less than 2 wt %, the resulting resin composition has poor heaticold resistance.

The amount of the glass fiber (C) is from 20 to 60 wt %. If the amount is less than 20 wt %, the resulting composition has poor mechanical characteristics and heat/cold resistance. On the other hand, if the amount exceeds 60 wt %, the resulting composition has poor molding fluidity.

The mold release agent (D) is preferably at least one member selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene wax, a polypropylene wax, a fatty amide lubricant and a carnauba wax.

Ingredients to be added in small amounts may be added at the time of molding after the other ingredients are melt-kneaded and pelletized. The melt-kneading may be carried out by conventional hot melt-kneading techniques, using a single screw or double screw extruder, a kneader, a mill or a brabender, preferably using a double screw extruder, which shows good kneading performance. The kneading temperature is appropriately selected usually from the range of from 260 to 350° C., without particular restrictions.
The polyarylene sulfide composition of the present invention has particularly excellent acid resistance and excellent heat/cold resistance and mechanical strength and hence is suitably used in automobile parts or electrical or electronic parts.

After cooling to 190° C., 2,107 g of p-dichlorobenzene and 985 g of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone were added, and the reaction system was sealed under a nitrogen stream. The reaction system was heated to 225° C. over 2 hours, and polymerization was carried out at 225° C. for 1 hour. Then, the system was heated to 250° C. over 25 minutes, and polymerization was carried out at 250° C. for 3 hours. After the polymerization, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone was recovered from the resulting polymer slurry by distillation under reduced pressure. The final temperature was 170° C., and the pressure was 4.7 kPa. Warm water at 80° C. was added to the resulting cake to make the slurry concentration 20%, the resulting slurry was washed, warm water was added in the same manner again, the temperature was increased to 175° C., and the washing of poly(p-phenylene sulfide) was performed a total of two times. The poly(p-phenylene sulfide) was dried at 105° C. for 1 day. The dry poly(p-phenylene sulfide) was cured in a batch-type rotary kiln furnace by heating to 235° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere for 1 hour to obtain PPS (A-1) having a melt viscosity of 200 poises.

Then, the tensile strength was measured with a tensile tester (Autograph AG-5000B (trade name), manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation) in accordance with ISO 527. The percentage of the tensile strength after the immersion to the initial tensile strength is defined as tensile strength retention, and when the tensile strength retention after 100 hours of immersion exceeded 90%, and the tensile strength retention after 250 hours exceeded 70%, the acid resistance was judged as good.

The test piece was subjected to a heat/cold cycle of 30 minutes of heating at 150° C. and 30 minutes of cooling at −40° C. repeatedly until crack development was recognized by the naked eye.
