The amount of the modified polyolefin resin (B) blended in the thermoplastic resin composition is 0.1 part by mass or more and 5 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the thermoplastic resin (A) and the modified polyolefin resin (B). The modified polyolefin resin (B) blended in an amount of less than 0.1 part by mass will undesirably cause the water repellency and oil repellency to be poorer. The amount of more than 5 parts by mass will undesirably impair the compatibility between the thermoplastic resin (A) and the modified polyorganosiloxane (C), resulting in causing an appearance defect due to the modified polyorganosiloxane (C). Furthermore, (B)×(C) is preferably 7 or less, more preferably 1 to 7, wherein (B)×(C) represents the product of the amount of the modified polyolefin resin (B) and the amount of the modified polyorganosiloxane (C), both of the amounts are on a part-by-mass basis, from the viewpoint of water repellency and oil repellency. (B)×(C), the product of the amount of the modified polyolefin resin (B) and the amount of the modified polyorganosiloxane (C), both of the amounts are on a part-by-mass basis, within the above-described preferable range will not result in causing an appearance defect. The weight-average molecular weight of the modified polyolefin resin (B) is preferably 10,000 or more, more preferably 100,000 or more. The modified polyolefin resin (B) having a weight-average molecular weight within the above-described preferable range has good compatibility with the thermoplastic resin (A), and will not result in causing an appearance defect. The weight-average molecular weight of the modified polyolefin resin (B) can be measured by a high-temperature GPC method.
The modified polyorganosiloxane (C) is a polyorganosiloxane the molecular chain of which has a reactive functional group bonded to both or one of the ends thereof and/or to the side chain thereof. The polyorganosiloxane has, as a reactive functional group, at least one selected from an epoxy group, a carboxyl group, an amino group, and an acid anhydride group. Examples of the polyorganosiloxane include an epoxy-modified silicone oil, a carboxy-modified silicone oil, an amino-modified silicone oil, a maleic anhydride-modified silicone oil and the like. From the viewpoint of water repellency and oil repellency, an epoxy-modified silicone oil is preferable, and an alicyclic epoxy-modified silicone oil is particularly preferable. The viscosity of the modified polyorganosiloxane (C) is subject to no particular limitation, but is preferably 10 to 30,000 cSt, particularly preferably 100 to 20,000 cSt, from the viewpoint of inhibiting bleedout and of processability. The amount of the modified polyorganosiloxane (C) blended in the thermoplastic resin composition is 0.5 part by mass or more and 5 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the thermoplastic resin (A) and the modified polyolefin resin (B). The modified polyorganosiloxane (C) blended in an amount of less than 0.5 part by mass will undesirably cause the water repellency and oil repellency to be poorer. The amount of more than 5 parts by mass will undesirably result in causing an appearance defect due to an excess of the modified polyorganosiloxane (C).
The polytetrafluoroethylene (D) preferably has a number-average molecular weight of 200,000 or less in accordance with a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. With the number-average molecular weight of 200,000 or more, the polytetrafluoroethylene is fiberized during melt-kneading, thereby causing a marked rise in viscosity. The polytetrafluoroethylene, if added in a slightly increased amount, becomes difficult to melt-knead and mold. Furthermore, the gloss is decreased markedly, and thus, the appearance is impaired significantly. The number-average molecular weight of the polytetrafluoroethylene (D) is calculated from formula (1) on the basis of a heat of crystallization, ΔHc, determined by differential scanning calorimetry when the polytetrafluoroethylene is heated from room temperature to 380° C. at a heating rate of 10° C./min, and then cooled at 10° C./min:
(Formula 1)
Mn=2.1×1010×ΔHc−5.16 (1)
Mn: number-average molecular weight, ΔHc: heat of crystallization (cal/g) DSC.
The polytetrafluoroethylene (D) having a number-average molecular weight of 200,000 or less in accordance with a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method may be in powder form or water-dispersed form. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of the appearance quality of the molded article, the polytetrafluoroethylene (D) preferably has an average primary particle size of 5 μm or less, more preferably 1 μm or less. The amount of the polytetrafluoroethylene (D) blended in the thermoplastic resin composition is 1 part by mass or more and 10 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the thermoplastic resin (A) and the modified polyolefin resin (B). The polytetrafluoroethylene (D) blended in an amount of less than 1 part by mass will undesirably cause the water repellency and oil repellency to be poorer. The amount of more than 10 parts by mass will undesirably impair the compatibility of the thermoplastic resin (A) and of the modified polyolefin resin (B) with the modified polyorganosiloxane (C), resulting in causing an appearance defect due to the modified polyorganosiloxane (C). In addition, the influence of the polytetrafluoroethylene (D) itself on the appearance is increased, and will undesirably cause the appearance to have a defect. If needed, to the extent that the desired effect is not impaired, the thermoplastic resin composition can further have, blended therein, an inorganic filler such as glass fiber, silica, silicone powder, glass powder, glass beads, glass flakes, alumina, alumina fiber, carbon fiber, graphite fiber, stainless steel fiber, whisker, potassium titanate fiber, wollastonite, asbestos, hard clay, calcined clay, talc, kaolin, mica, calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, aluminum oxide, or mineral; an antioxidant such as a hindered phenol-based or a sulfur-containing compound-based, or a phosphorus-containing organic compound-based antioxidant; a heat stabilizer such as a phenol-based or an acrylate-based heat stabilizer; an ultraviolet absorber such as a benzotriazole-based, benzophenone-based, or salicylate-based ultraviolet absorber; a hindered amine-based light stabilizer; a lubricant or plasticizer such as higher fatty acid, acid ester, acid amide, or higher alcohol lubricant or plasticizer; a mold release agent such as montanic acid or a salt thereof, an ester thereof, a half ester thereof, stearyl alcohol, stearamide, an ethylene wax, an unmodified silicone oil, or a silicone gum; any kind of flame retardant; a flame retardant aid; an anti-coloring agent such as phosphite or hypophosphite; a neutralizer such as phosphoric acid, monosodium phosphate, maleic anhydride, or succinic anhydride; a nucleating agent; an antistatic agent such as an amine-based, sulfonic acid-based, or polyether-based antistatic agent; a colorant such as carbon black, a pigment, or a dye; or the like.
Next, a method of producing our thermoplastic resin composition will be described. A thermoplastic resin composition can be obtained, for example, by melt-kneading the above-mentioned thermoplastic resin (A), modified polyolefin resin (B), modified polyorganosiloxane (C), polytetrafluoroethylene (D), and, if desired, another component(s). A method of producing a thermoplastic resin composition is subject to no particular limitation. Examples of the method include; a method in which the components to be included in the thermoplastic resin composition are mixed using a mixer; a method in which the components are melt-kneaded uniformly; and the like. Examples of the mixer include a V-type blender, a super mixer, a super floater, a Henschel mixer and the like. Examples of the melt-kneading machine include a kneader, a single-screw or twin-screw extruder and the like. The melt-kneading temperature is preferably 200 to 300° C., more preferably 230 to 290° C. The thermoplastic resin composition obtained is commonly pelletized with a pelletizer, and used.
A thermoplastic resin composition can be molded by any molding method. Examples of the molding method include injection molding, extrusion molding, inflation molding, blow molding, vacuum molding, compression molding, and gas assist molding. Injection molding is preferably used. The cylinder temperature during injection molding is preferably 210 to 300° C., and the mold temperature is preferably 30 to 80° C.

Thermoplastic resin composition pellets dried in a hot-air dryer at a temperature of 80° C. for 3 hours were injection-molded in the above-mentioned injection molding machine EC75-SX at a preset cylinder temperature of 250° C. The surface of the planar test piece obtained (120 mm in length, 100 mm in width, and 3 mm in thickness) was checked, by visual observation, for any visible appearance defect such as a streak or a flow mark. The test piece was regarded as “fair” if found to have no such visible defect, or as “fail” if found to have any such visible defect.
A reaction vessel having an internal volume of 20 m3 and equipped with a stirring impeller was fed with 60 parts by weight (in terms of solid content) of polybutadiene latex (weight-average particle size of rubber: 0.30 μm, gel content: 85%), 120 parts by weight of pure water, 0.4 part by weight of sodium laurate, 0.2 part by weight of glucose, 0.2 part by weight of sodium pyrophosphate, and 0.01 part by weight of ferrous sulfate. The reaction vessel was purged with nitrogen, and the temperature was adjusted to 60° C. A monomer mixture of 6.6 parts by weight of styrene, 2.6 parts by weight of acrylonitrile, and 0.046 part by weight of t-dodecyl mercaptan was initially added with stirring over 30 minutes.
Subsequently, an initiator mixture of 0.36 part by weight of cumene hydroperoxide, 1.5 parts by weight of sodium laurate as an emulsifier, and 25 parts by weight of pure water was continuously added dropwise over 5 hours. Simultaneously, a monomer mixture of 22.2 parts by weight of styrene, 8.6 parts by weight of acrylonitrile, and 0.154 part by weight of t-dodecyl mercaptan was continuously added dropwise over 3 hours. After the dropwise addition of the monomer mixture, only the initiator mixture was continuously added dropwise for 2 hours, and then, the polymerization was terminated. The resulting graft copolymer latex was coagulated with 1.5 wt % sulfuric acid, then neutralized with sodium hydroxide, washed, centrifuged, and dried to obtain a powder graft copolymer (a).
The graft ratio of this graft copolymer was 36%, the weight-average molecular weight of the acetone-soluble components was 81,000, and the average amount of the acrylonitrile monomer unit was 28 wt %.
Then, 6 parts by weight of the aqueous solution of a methyl methacrylate-acrylamide binary copolymer and 150 parts by weight of pure water were placed in a 20 L autoclave. The resulting mixture was stirred at 400 rpm. The inside of the system was purged with nitrogen gas. After the system was heated to 70° C., a monomer mixture of 28.9 parts by weight of acrylonitrile, 11.1 parts by weight of styrene, 0.32 part by weight of azobisisobutyronitrile, 0.063 part by weight of t-dodecylmercaptan, and 0.094 part by weight of n-octyl mercaptan was added over 30 minutes with the reaction system being stirred. The polymerization reaction was thus started. When one hour elapsed after the monomer mixture was added, 15 parts by weight of styrene was added using a supply pump. Then, styrene was added to the reaction vessel three times, 15 parts by weight each, at 30-minute intervals. After all of the monomers were added, the system was heated to 100° C. over 60 minutes. After reaching the temperature, the system was maintained at 100° C. for 30 minutes, and then cooled. Then, separation, washing, and drying of the polymer were performed to obtain vinyl-based copolymer beads (b). The weight-average molecular weight was 320,000, and the average amount of the acrylonitrile monomer unit was 27 wt %.
Furthermore, a vinyl-based copolymer (c) was produced by the following method using a continuous bulk polymerization apparatus including: a 2 m3 complete mixing polymerization tank having a condenser for evaporation and dry distillation of the monomer vapor and a helical ribbon impeller; a single-screw extruder-type preheater; and a twin-screw extruder-type monomer remover. A monomer mixture containing 72 parts by weight of styrene, 28 parts by weight of acrylonitrile, 0.30 part by weight of n-octyl mercaptan, and 0.014 part by weight of 1,1-bis(t-butylperoxy)cyclohexane was continuously supplied to the complete mixing polymerization tank at 150 kg/hour, and subjected to continuous bulk polymerization while maintaining the polymerization temperature at 130° C. and the internal pressure in the tank at 0.08 MPa. The polymerization rate of the polymerization reaction mixture at the outlet of the complete mixing polymerization tank was controlled to 65±3%. The polymerization reaction mixture was preheated by the single-screw extruder-type preheater and then supplied to the twin-screw extruder-type monomer remover. The unreacted monomer was evaporated and recovered under reduced pressure through the vent port of the twin-screw extruder-type monomer remover. The unreacted monomer recovered was continuously refluxed to the complete mixing polymerization tank. Thereafter, the melt-kneaded product was discharged in the form of a strand, and cut with a cutter to obtain pellets of the vinyl-based copolymer (c). The weight-average molecular weight of the vinyl-based copolymer (c) obtained was 120,000. The average amount of the acrylonitrile monomer unit was 28 wt %.
Using a single-screw extruder having a vent and having a screw diameter of 40 mm (FS40, manufactured by Ikegai Corporation), 23 mass % of the graft copolymer (a), 20 mass % of the vinyl-based copolymer (b), and 57 mass % of the vinyl-based copolymer (c) were melt-kneaded under the conditions of a preset cylinder temperature of 250° C. and a screw rotation speed of 80 rpm to obtain pellets of the thermoplastic resin (A).

The above-mentioned thermoplastic resin (A), modified polyolefin resin (B), modified polyorganosiloxane (C), and polytetrafluoroethylene (D) were blended in such amounts on a part-by-mass basis as mentioned in Tables 1 or 2. The resulting mixture was melt-kneaded under the conditions of a preset cylinder temperature of 260° C. and a screw rotation speed of 250 rpm using a twin-screw extruder having a vent and having a screw diameter of 30 mm (PCM30, manufactured by Ikegai Corporation) to obtain pellets of a resin composition. As above-mentioned, the appearance of the test piece molded under the predetermined conditions was checked by visual observation, and the water contact angle and the oleic acid contact angle were determined. The evaluation results are tabulated in Tables 1 and 2.
The evaluation results in Table 1 have revealed that, with each of the thermoplastic resin compositions in Examples 1 to 8, the water repellency and oil repellency of the thermoplastic resin composition and the appearance of the molded article are excellent in a balanced manner.
On the other hand, the evaluation results in Table 2 have revealed that Comparative Example 1 exhibited poorer oil repellency because of not containing the modified polyolefin resin (B), that Comparative Example 2 exhibited poorer water repellency and oil repellency because of not containing the modified polyorganosiloxane (C), and that Comparative Example 3 exhibited poorer oil repellency because of not containing the polytetrafluoroethylene (D). The results in Comparative Examples 1 to 3 have revealed that the synergistic effects of the modified polyolefin resin (B), the modified polyorganosiloxane (C), and the polytetrafluoroethylene (D) in combination develop the excellent water repellency and oil repellency. Comparative Example 4 exhibited poor water repellency and oil repellency because of containing the modified polyorganosiloxane (C) in a smaller amount. Comparative Examples 5 to 7 caused an appearance defect because (B)×(C), which is the product of the amount of the modified polyolefin resin (B) and the amount of the modified polyorganosiloxane (C), both of the amounts are on a part-by-mass basis, is more than 7. Comparative Example 8 exhibited poor water repellency and oil repellency because of containing the polytetrafluoroethylene (D) in a smaller amount. Comparative Example 9 caused an appearance defect because of containing the polytetrafluoroethylene (D) in an excessive amount. Comparative Example 10 caused an appearance defect because of containing the unmodified polyolefin resin in place of the modified polyolefin resin (B), and thus decreasing the compatibility. Comparative Example 11 exhibited poor water repellency and oil repellency because of containing the unmodified polyorganosiloxane in place of the modified polyorganosiloxane (C).
