A thermoplastic resin composition and a molded product using the same are disclosed.
A polycarbonate resin is one of engineering plastics, and is a material that is widely used in the plastics industry.
The polycarbonate resin has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of about 150° C. due to a bulk molecular structure, such as bisphenol-A, which shows high heat resistance and may be an amorphous polymer having excellent transparency.
Furthermore, although having excellent impact resistance and compatibility with other resins, polycarbonate resin has a drawback of low fluidity, so it is frequently used in a form of a compound with various resins for complementing moldability and post-processability.
Among them, a polycarbonate/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (PC/ABS) compound has excellent durability, moldability, heat resistance, impact resistance, and the like, and thus may be applied in a wide range of applications such as an electrical/electronic field, an automobile field, a construction field, and other daily life materials.
However, the PC/ABS compound lacks chemical resistance to chemicals such as cosmetics and air fresheners used in vehicle interiors, so there is a risk of damage when applied to automobile interior materials.
On the other hand, polyester resin has improved moldability and, in particular, improved chemical resistance due to its crystallinity, but has low heat resistance and impact resistance due to a low glass transition temperature. Accordingly, polycarbonate/polyester (PC/polyester) compounds are being researched as an approach to supplement chemical resistance while maintaining improved durability, moldability, heat resistance, and impact resistance.
Recently, there has been an emerging need for automobile interior materials with enhanced low gloss properties for luxurious appearances. In order to realize the low gloss properties, a method of reducing surface gloss by introducing several micrometer-sized acrylic particles, an inorganic filler, or the like into a PC/polyester compound but may have a problem of greatly deteriorating impact resistance.
In addition, since volatile organic compounds (VOCs) may adversely affect a human body as well as generate unpleasant odors, there has been a recent movement to apply materials generating less VOCs to automobile interior materials and the like.
Accordingly, in order to solve the problems, development of a thermoplastic resin composition having excellent moldability, heat resistance, impact resistance, and low gloss properties and generating less volatile organic compounds, compared with the conventional PC/polyester compound or PC/ABS compound, prepared by adding several micrometer-sized acrylic particles, an inorganic filler, or the like, has been undertaken.

If the methyl methacrylate-butadiene-styrene graft copolymer is included in an amount of less than 3 parts by weight, the impact resistance of the molded product using the thermoplastic resin composition may be lowered, while if it exceeds 7 parts by weight, appearance characteristics of the molded product using the thermoplastic resin composition may be deteriorated.
(E) Polyolefin-Based Polymer Having Glycidyl Group
In an embodiment, the polyolefin-based polymer having the glycidyl group imparts low gloss characteristics to the thermoplastic resin composition. Accordingly, the thermoplastic resin composition according to the embodiment may realize excellent low gloss characteristics due to the polyolefin-based polymer having the glycidyl group while maintaining excellent impact resistance.
