The present invention relates to a stabilizer composition, a vinyl chloride resin composition containing the same, and a molded article of the composition. More particularly, the present invention relates to: a stabilizer composition capable of imparting a vinyl chloride resin with excellent thermal stability, coloration resistance, and thermal coloration resistance; a vinyl chloride resin composition containing the same; and a molded article of the composition.
Vinyl chloride resins are used in a variety of applications since not only they are excellent in flame retardancy, chemical resistance, mechanical stability, transparency, adhesiveness, printability and the like but also their hardness can be easily modified from hard to soft with an addition of a plasticizer. Particularly, hard vinyl chloride resin compositions containing no plasticizer at all and semi-hard vinyl chloride resin compositions containing a small amount of a plasticizer have excellent rigidity and are thus widely used in building materials and the like. Therefore, such vinyl chloride resin compositions are required to exhibit their performance at a higher level in terms of thermal stability, coloration resistance, thermal coloration resistance, weather resistance and the like, not only during processing when they are exposed to a high temperature and a high pressure but also as molded articles.
Further, as for hard transparent molded articles, vinyl chloride resins are also used as extremely versatile resins in containers, industrial boards, decorative plates, films, sheets and the like that require glass-like transparency. On the other hand, chloride resins are known to have drawbacks in that they are not sufficiently stable against light and heat, and that they are likely to be degraded mainly due to dehydrohalogenation when they are heat-molded or used as products.
In order to satisfy these performance requirements and overcome the drawbacks, it is conventionally proposed, as in Patent Documents 1 to 3, to improve the stability of a vinyl chloride resin by incorporating a variety of stabilizers such as an organic acid metal salt, an organic tin compound, an organic phosphite compound, and epoxy compound, a β-diketone compound, an antioxidant, and an ultraviolet absorber.
However, even in a vinyl chloride resin composition containing such stabilizers, degradation caused by a reduction in the molecular weight of its vinyl chloride resin and dehydrohalogenation when they are heat-molded or used as products is not completely inhibited. Moreover, a problem has been found that a vinyl chloride resin composition is colored as a result of a reduction in the molecular weight of its vinyl chloride resin or generation of hydrogen chloride. Under these circumstances, Patent Document 4 proposes to incorporate a hindered amine-based light stabilizer into a vinyl chloride resin.

However, a hindered amine-based light stabilizer is used for improving the weather resistance of a vinyl chloride resin, and the improvement in the thermal stability, the coloration resistance, and the thermal coloration resistance of a vinyl chloride resin have not been investigated sufficiently. Therefore, at present, there is still room for investigation with regard to the inhibition of deterioration in the quality of a vinyl chloride resin composition caused by heating, processing and use.
In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide: a stabilizer composition capable of imparting a vinyl chloride resin with excellent thermal stability, coloration resistance, and thermal coloration resistance; a vinyl chloride resin composition containing the same; and a molded article of the composition. Another object of the present invention is to provide: in applications where transparency is required, a stabilizer composition capable of imparting a vinyl chloride resin with excellent transparency in addition to the above-described effects; a vinyl chloride resin composition containing the same; and a molded article of the composition.

The term “overbased barium carbonate” used herein refers to a liquid overbased carboxylate-carbonate complex of barium. This complex, which is different from a simple mixture of normal barium carboxylate and barium carbonate, is formed by some sort of interaction therebetween and characteristically assumes a homogeneous liquid state in an organic solvent while having a high metal content. This complex is constituted by, as its constituents, normal barium carboxylate, barium carbonate and a complex salt of barium carboxylate and barium carbonate, and normal barium carboxylate and the complex salt of barium carboxylate and barium carbonate are centered around barium carbonate to form a so-called micelle-like structure, thereby allowing the complex to assume a homogeneous liquid state in an organic solvent. Such a liquid overbased carboxylate-carbonate complex of barium can be produced by, for example, the production method described in JP2004-238364A.
As the liquid overbased carboxylate-carbonate complex of barium, a variety of commercially available complexes can be directly used. Representative examples thereof include “PlastiStab™ 2116” (overbased barium oleate-carbonate complex: specific gravity=1.42 to 1.53, Ba=33 to 36%), “PlastiStab™ 2513” (overbased barium oleate-carbonate complex: specific gravity=1.41 to 1.52, Ba=33 to 36%) and “PlastiStab™ 2508” (overbased barium oleate-carbonate complex: specific gravity=1.39 to 1.51, Ba=33 to 36%), which are manufactured by AM Stabilizers Corporation, U.S.
These overbased barium carbonates may be used individually, or two or more thereof may be used in combination.
Examples of the organic acid calcium salts include calcium salts of organic carboxylic acids, phenols, or organic phosphoric acids.

Moreover, examples of the organic phosphoric acids include the same ones as those exemplified above for barium salts.

Such an organic acid calcium salt may be used individually, or two or more thereof may be used in combination. Further, the organic acid calcium salt, which is the component (B) of the stabilizer composition of the present invention, may be an acidic salt, a neutral salt, or a basic salt.
The term “overbased calcium carbonate” used herein refers to a liquid overbased carboxylate-carbonate complex of calcium.

This complex is constituted by, as its constituents, normal calcium carboxylate, calcium carbonate and a complex salt of calcium carboxylate and calcium carbonate, and normal calcium carboxylate and the complex salt of calcium carboxylate and calcium carbonate are centered around calcium carbonate to form a so-called micelle-like structure, thereby allowing the complex to assume a homogeneous liquid state in an organic solvent.
Such a liquid overbased carboxylate-carbonate complex of calcium can be produced in the same manner as the above-described liquid overbased carboxylate-carbonate complex of barium. Further, a variety of commercially available complexes can be directly used as well.

This complex is constituted by, as its constituents, normal magnesium carboxylate, magnesium carbonate and a complex salt of magnesium carboxylate and magnesium carbonate, and normal magnesium carboxylate and the complex salt of magnesium carboxylate and magnesium carbonate are centered around magnesium carbonate to form a so-called micelle-like structure, thereby allowing the complex to assume a homogeneous liquid state in an organic solvent.
Such a liquid overbased carboxylate-carbonate complex of magnesium can be produced in the same manner as the above-described liquid overbased carboxylate-carbonate complex of barium. Further, commercially available complexes can be directly used as well. These overbased magnesium carbonates may be used individually, or two or more thereof may be used in combination.

A vinyl chloride resin, a stabilizer composition and other additives were blended using a Henschel mixer in accordance with the respective formulations shown in Tables 6 to 11. As a result, vinyl chloride resin compositions according to the present invention (Examples 1 to 24) and vinyl chloride resin compositions for comparison (Comparative Examples 1 to 3) were obtained. The thus obtained vinyl chloride resin compositions were calender-molded to produce sheets. The roll kneading conditions were set as 180° C.×30 rpm×0.6 mm. The thus obtained sheets were each evaluated by the following test methods.
The sheets were each placed in gear ovens set at 190° C. and 200° C., and the blackening time (minutes) was measured. The evaluation results are shown together in Tables 6 to 11. It is regarded that a longer blackening time means superior thermal stability.
The above-obtained sheets of 0.6 mm in thickness were each pasted together and then pressed at 190° C. for 5 minutes to produce a sheet of 1 mm in thickness. The yellowness (Y.I. value) of this sheet was measured in accordance with JIS K7373. The evaluation results are shown together in Tables 6 to 11. It is regarded that a smaller yellowness value means less coloration and thus superior coloration resistance with limited initial coloration.
The above-obtained sheets of 0.6 mm in thickness were each pasted together and then pressed at 190° C. for 30 minutes to produce a sheet of 1 mm in thickness. Further, the above-obtained sheets of 0.6 mm in thickness were each pasted together and then pressed at 190° C. for 50 minutes to produce a sheet of 1 mm in thickness. For these sheets, the yellowness (Y.I. value) was measured in accordance with JIS K7373. The evaluation results are shown together in Tables 6 to 11. It is regarded that a smaller yellowness value means less coloration and thus superior thermal coloration resistance. A larger yellowness value means inferior thermal coloration resistance, and a sheet having even a larger yellowness value was blackened.
In the course of the evaluation by the above thermal coloration resistance test, the haze value was measured for each 1 mm-thick sheet obtained by pressing at 190° C. for 5 minutes. The evaluation results are shown together in Tables 6 to 11.
