Definitions

  • the invention relates to blends of a copoly(arylene sulfide) and a polyamide.
  • Poly(arylene sulfide) resins are thermoplastic , polymeric materials with good thermal stability, unusual insolubility, resistance to chemical environments and inherent flame resistance. Poly(arylene sulfide) resins additionally have good electrical insulative properties
  • polymers can be prepared by reacting p—dichloro—benzene with sodium sulfide in a polar organic solvent to produce poly(phenylene sulfide) and the by ⁇ product sodium chloride in accordance with U.S. 2,513,188 and U.S. 2,538,941. An improvement on this procedure

  • copoly(arylene sulfide) polymers useful in this invention are therefore inherent in the disclosure of these references because as the molecular weight builds up toward the miminu value of n of at least 200 which is disclosed in these references the molecular weight passes through a molecular weight associated with the lower minimum value of n of 25 of the copoly(arylene sulfide) polymers of this invention.
  • the copoly(arylene sulfide) polymers useful in this invention can be prepared by those skilled in the art by following the teachings of these references and controlling the stoichiometery, time, temperature and other variables of the reaction to achiefe a molecular weight associated with a value of n which is at least 25.
  • diiodoaromatic compounds which can be utilized to prepare the copoly(arylene sulfide) useful in this invention, include unsubstituted or substituted aromatics which have two iodine substituents.
  • Preferred diiodoaromatic compounds are the diiodobenzenes, diiodonaphthalenes and diiodobiphenyls which may be unsubstituted or substituted.
  • the diiodoaromatic compounds suitable for the present invention include p—diiodobenzene, m—diiodobenzene, p,p'— diiodobiphenyl, p,p*—diiodobiphenyl, p,p'—diiododiphenyl ether and 2,6-diiodonaphthalene.

  • poly(e— caprolactam) examples include poly(e— caprolactam); poly(enantholactam) , poly(w—undecaneamide) , poly(capryllactu ) , and poly(w-pelargonamide) .
  • d is 5 the polyamide is often called poly(e—caprolactam) .
  • the blends of this invention can be prepared by known techniques for blending polymers.
  • the polymers can be coextruded in convention twin screw extrusion equipment.
  • polymers of both polymers may be admixed and the admixed powders extruded in a single screw extruder.
  • an admixture of powdered polymer is prepared and the admixture powder is extruded in a single screw extruder.
  • the amount of copoly(arylene sulfide) is in the range of 99.5 to 50 weight percent, preferably 98 to 75 weight percent, based on the weight of the admixture.

  • compositions of this invention are normally solid in the sense that at typical room temperatures and pressures the compositions are in a solid state as compared to a liquid state.
  • the solid character of the composition results from both polymers having a sufficiently high molecular weight to be a solid.
  • the enhanced rate of crystallization of the composition of this invention is extremely significant. High rates of crystallization enables crystalline-shaped articles, such as molded parts, extruded fibers or drawn film, to be more easily prepared because processing time is saved, thereby increasing production efficiency.
  • the crystallization rate of the composition of the invention is measured by the difference in the DSC transitions of Tec — Teh, often referred to by those skilled in the art as the quantity "delta". If two polymers were blended together one would expect the delta value of the blend to be the linear weighted average of the two component polymers. This relationship can be expressed by the equation
  • delta blend delta- L x weight fraction ! + delta 2 x weight fraction 2
  • the resultant delta blend would be expected to be the average of elta and delta 2 .
  • the transitions Tec and Teh are defined by heating the polymer sample in a Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) instrument at a scan rate of 20°C/ ⁇ in.
  • the Tec is determined by heating the polymer to a molten state, usually 300°c and then cooling at 20°C/min.
  • the peak of the exotherm observed is defined as the Tec.
  • the Teh is determined by heating a sample of polymer to the melt again and quenching the sample onto a metal block cooled in dry ice. The thus produced glassy sample is then heated from room temperature up to a melt.
