Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は、難燃性スチレン系樹脂組成物に関し、高度の難燃性と共に耐光性、耐熱性、流動性に優れ、及び押出機や射出成形機のスクリュ−、シリンダ−、金型などに対する付着性を低減する難燃性スチレン系樹脂組成物に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
ハイインパックトポリスチレン(HIPS)、ABSなどスチレン系樹脂は機械特性がよく、電気絶縁性、成形加工性に優れている。近年、OA機器や家電製品のハウジング、自動車部品など多用されている。しかし、スチレン系樹脂は易燃性であるため、安全面から難燃化が要求されている。さらにOA機器、家電製品などの分野では、室内で使用されるが、蛍光灯や外から入る光にさらされるため、耐光性が重視されている。
【0003】
従来より、スチレン系樹脂に難燃性を付与するため、種々のハロゲン化有機化合物が提案されている。代表的にはテトラブロモビスフェノ−ルA(TBA)やデカブロモジフェニルエ−テル(DBDPE)や臭素化エポキシ樹脂、及びこの臭素化エポキシ樹脂のエポキシ基をトリブロモフェノ−ル(TBP)で封鎖したものなどが知られている。特に前の二者が安価なため、多く用いられている。
しかし、TBAはスチレン系樹脂と配合した場合、耐熱性と耐光性を大幅に低下させる欠点があり、DBDPE及びTBPで封鎖したエポキシ樹脂は耐光性を低下させる欠点がある。また、臭素化エポキシ樹脂では、溶融混練時の押出機や成形時の射出成形機等のスクリュ−に対し、付着性を有するため、連続生産を行うと、付着物が長時間に渡って高温にさらされ、変色劣化してしまい、異物としてコンパウンドや成形品に混入してしまうという欠点があった。
【0004】
【発明が解決しょうとする問題点】
本発明者らは鋭意研究の結果、ハロゲン化エポキシ樹脂、特に臭素化エポキシ樹脂にアルキルグリシジルエ−テル及び/又はアルキルグリシジルエ−テルとフェノ−ル類との反応物、もしくはアルキルグリシジルエ−テルとエポキシ樹脂中のフェノ−ル末端との反応物を含有させたものは、スチレン系樹脂の難燃剤として極めて有効であることを見出し、本発明を完成したもので、本発明は高度の難燃性と共に、耐光性、耐熱性、流動性に優れ、及び押出機や射出成形機のスクリュ−、シリンダ−、金型等の金属部分に対する付着性を低減した難燃性スチレン系樹脂組成物を提供することを目的とする。

[Industrial applications]
The present invention relates to a flame-retardant styrenic resin composition, which is highly flame-retardant and has excellent light resistance, heat resistance and fluidity, and adheres to screws, cylinders, dies and the like of extruders and injection molding machines. The present invention relates to a flame-retardant styrenic resin composition having reduced properties.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Styrene-based resins such as high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) and ABS have good mechanical properties, and are excellent in electrical insulation and moldability. 2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, OA equipment, housing of home electric appliances, automobile parts, and the like have been widely used. However, since styrene resins are flammable, flame retardancy is required for safety. Further, in fields such as OA equipment and home electric appliances, they are used indoors. However, since they are exposed to fluorescent lights and light entering from outside, light resistance is emphasized.
[0003]
Conventionally, various halogenated organic compounds have been proposed for imparting flame retardancy to styrene resins. Typically, tetrabromobisphenol A (TBA), decabromodiphenyl ether (DBDPE), a brominated epoxy resin, and the epoxy group of the brominated epoxy resin are blocked with tribromophenol (TBP). Are known. In particular, the former two are widely used because they are inexpensive.
However, when TBA is blended with a styrene-based resin, there is a drawback that heat resistance and light resistance are significantly reduced, and an epoxy resin blocked with DBDPE and TBP has a drawback that light resistance is reduced. In addition, since the brominated epoxy resin has an adhesive property to screws such as an extruder at the time of melt-kneading and an injection molding machine at the time of molding, if the continuous production is performed, the adhered substance may be exposed to a high temperature for a long time. Exposure causes discoloration and deterioration, and has the disadvantage of being mixed as foreign matter into compounds and molded products.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have found that alkyl glycidyl ethers and / or reactants of alkyl glycidyl ethers with phenols or alkyl glycidyl ethers are added to halogenated epoxy resins, especially brominated epoxy resins. It was found that a product containing a reaction product of styrene and a phenolic terminal in an epoxy resin was extremely effective as a flame retardant for a styrenic resin, and the present invention was completed. Provide flame-retardant styrene-based resin composition with excellent light resistance, heat resistance, and fluidity as well as reduced adhesion to metal parts such as screws, cylinders, dies and the like of extruders and injection molding machines. The purpose is to do.
