なお、上記のアニオン重合は、溶媒の存在下で行なうのが好ましい。溶媒としては、開始剤に対して不活性で、重合に悪影響を及ぼさないものであれば特に制限はなく、例えばヘキサン、ヘプタン、オクタン、デカンなどの飽和脂肪族炭化水素;シクロペンタン、シクロヘキサン、シクロヘプタンなどの脂環式飽和炭化水素;トルエン、ベンゼン、キシレンなどの芳香族炭化水素などが挙げられる。また、重合は、上記したいずれの方法による場合も、通常、0~80℃で0.5~50時間行なうのが好ましい。
該有機ルイス塩基としては、例えば、酢酸エチルなどのエステル;トリエチルアミン、N,N,N’,N’-テトラメチルエチレンジアミン(TMEDA)、N-メチルモルホリンなどのアミン;ピリジンなどの含窒素複素環式芳香族化合物;ジメチルアセトアミドなどのアミド;ジメチルエーテル、ジエチルエーテル、テトラヒドロフラン(THF)、ジオキサンなどのエーテル;エチレングリコールジメチルエーテル、ジエチレングリコールジメチルエーテルなどのグリコールエーテル;ジメチルスルホキシドなどのスルホキシド;アセトン、メチルエチルケトンなどのケトンなどが挙げられる。
さらに、上記で得られた未水添のブロック共重合体(A)を水素添加反応に付すことによって、水添されたブロック共重合体(A)を製造することができる。水素添加反応は、反応および水素添加触媒に対して不活性な溶媒に上記で得られた未水添のブロック共重合体(A)を溶解させるか、または、未水添のブロック共重合体(A)を前記の反応液から単離せずにそのまま用い、水素添加触媒の存在下、水素と反応させることにより行うことができる。
水素添加触媒としては、例えばラネーニッケル;Pt、Pd、Ru、Rh、Niなどの金属をカーボン、アルミナ、珪藻土などの担体に担持させた不均一系触媒;遷移金属化合物とアルキルアルミニウム化合物、アルキルリチウム化合物などとの組み合わせからなるチーグラー系触媒;メタロセン系触媒などが挙げられる。
水素添加反応は、通常、水素圧力0.1~20MPa、反応温度20~250℃、反応時間0.1~100時間の条件で行なうことができる。この方法による場合、水素添加反応液をメタノールなどの貧溶媒に注いで凝固させるか、または水素添加反応液をスチームと共に熱水中に注いで溶媒を共沸によって除去(スチームストリッピング)した後、乾燥させることにより、水添されたブロック共重合体(A)を単離することができる。
本発明に用いられるポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)は、熱可塑性重合体組成物に接着性を付与するものであり、通常、組成物中にてブロック共重合体(A)による連続相(海)中に、分散相として(島状に)分散している。該ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)によって、熱可塑性重合体組成物は、セラミックス、金属または合成樹脂などの被着体の表面にプライマー処理を施さなくても良好に接着させることができる。
ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)は、通常、下記式(I)に表される繰り返し単位を有する。
ただし、k(1)+k(2)+・・・+k(n)+l+m=1であり、k(1)、k(2)、・・・、k(n)、lおよびmは、いずれかがゼロであってもよい。
各繰返し単位は、特に上記配列順序によって制限されず、ランダムに配列されていてもよいし、ブロック状に配列されていてもよいし、テーパー状に配列されていてもよい。
ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)はポリビニルブチラールであることが好ましい。
ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)は、例えば、ポリビニルアルコールとアルデヒドとを反応させることによって得ることができる。
ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)の製造に用いられるポリビニルアルコールは、平均重合度が、通常、好ましくは100~4,000、より好ましくは100~3,000、さらに好ましくは100~2,000、特に好ましくは250~2,000であり、最も好ましくは250~1,000である。ポリビニルアルコールの平均重合度が100以上であれば、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)の製造が容易となり、また取り扱い性が良好である。また、ポリビニルアルコールの平均重合度が4,000以下であると、溶融混練する際の溶融粘度が高くなり過ぎることがなく、熱可塑性重合体組成物の製造が容易である。
ここでポリビニルアルコールの平均重合度は、JIS K 6726に準じて測定したものである。具体的には、ポリビニルアルコールを再けん化し、精製した後、30℃の水中で測定した極限粘度から求めた値である。
本発明では、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)中に存在するアセタール単位のうち、ブチラール単位の割合(下式参照)が、好ましくは0.8以上、より好ましくは0.9以上、さらに好ましくは0.95以上、特に好ましくは、実質的に1である。
すなわち、前記式(I)に示されるポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)の構造式において、R1のみがn-C3H7であるとき、0.8≦k(1)/(k(1)+k(2)+・・・+k(n))であるものが好ましい。
ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)のアセタール化度は、より好ましくは60~88モル%であり、さらに好ましくは70~88モル%であり、特に好ましくは75~85モル%である。ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)のアセタール化度が低いほど、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)が有する水酸基の割合が大きくなり、セラミックス、金属および合成樹脂に対する接着性において有利となるが、上記範囲のアセタール化度とすることで、ブロック共重合体(A)との親和性や相溶性が良好となり、熱可塑性重合体組成物の力学特性に優れるとともに、セラミックス、金属および合成樹脂との接着強度が高くなる。
アセタール化度(モル%)={k(1)+k(2)+・・・+k(n)}×2/{{k(1)+k(2)+・・・+k(n)}×2+l+m}×100(上記式中、n、k(1)、k(2)、・・・、k(n)、lおよびmは、前記定義の通りである。)
また、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)のアセタール化度は、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)を重水素化ジメチルスルホキシドなどの適切な重水素化溶媒に溶解し、1H-NMRや13C-NMRを測定して算出してもよい。

除去方法は特に制限されず、脱水と水洗を繰り返すなどの方法が通常用いられる。残渣などが除去された含水状態のポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)は、必要に応じて乾燥され、必要に応じてパウダー状、顆粒状あるいはペレット状に加工される。
本発明で用いるポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)としては、パウダー状、顆粒状あるいはペレット状に加工される際に、減圧状態で脱気することにより、アルデヒドの反応残渣や水分などを低減したものが好ましい。
本発明に用いられる熱可塑性重合体組成物はさらに、相溶化剤(C)を含む。相溶化剤(C)としては、例えば極性基含有ポリオレフィンが好ましく用いられる。極性基含有ポリオレフィンとしては、例えば極性基含有ポリエチレン系共重合体、極性基含有ポリプロピレン系樹脂などが挙げられる。
相溶化剤(C)を熱可塑性重合体組成物に含有させることにより、繊維の製造がより安定し、より良好な接着性を付与することとなり好ましい。
このような効果が得られる詳細な理由は必ずしも詳細は明らかではないが、熱可塑性重合体組成物において、各成分が分散状態にあるためであると考えられる。ポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)が組成物の表面にも分布しており、また、ブロック共重合体(A)と相溶化剤(C)、そしてポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)と相溶化剤(C)との結合力が高く、剥離時に各成分の境界部分で破断が起こらないため、上記本発明特有の効果が発現したものと考えられる。

なお、極性基含有構造単位の割合が少なくなるに伴って、熱可塑性重合体組成物の力学特性が低下する傾向となり、極性基含有構造単位の割合が多くなるに伴って、ブロック共重合体(A)との親和性や相溶性が低くなる傾向にある。

極性基含有ポリプロピレン系樹脂が有する極性基は、重合後に後処理されていてもよい。例えば、(メタ)アクリル酸基やカルボキシル基の金属イオンによる中和を行ってアイオノマーとしていてもよいし、メタノールやエタノールなどによってエステル化していてもよい。また、酢酸ビニルの加水分解などを行っていてもよい。

熱可塑性重合体組成物は、必要に応じてポリビニルアセタール樹脂(B)以外の粘着付与樹脂(D)をさらに含有させることができる。粘着付与樹脂(D)を含有させることによって、接着特性を維持しつつ、成形加工性がさらに向上する。

熱可塑性重合体組成物の調製方法に特に制限はなく、前記成分を均一に混合し得る方法であればいずれの方法で調製してもよく、通常は溶融混練法が用いられる。溶融混練は、例えば、単軸押出機、2軸押出機、ニーダー、バッチミキサー、ローラー、バンバリーミキサーなどの溶融混練装置を用いて行うことができ、通常、好ましくは170~270℃で溶融混練することにより、熱可塑性重合体組成物を得ることができる。
こうして得られる熱可塑性重合体組成物は、溶融紡糸によって繊維にすることができる。また、紡糸する際には、他の熱可塑性ポリマーとの混合紡糸や複合紡糸も可能である。ここで使用する溶融紡糸装置は、ポリアミド、ポリエステル、ポリオレフィン、ポリビニルクロライド、ポリビニリデンクロライドなどの熱可塑性高分子を溶融紡糸する際に使用する装置と実質的に同等のものでよい。たとえばスクリュー押出し機にギヤポンプを結合させた形式のものでよい。紡糸温度、紡糸押出し圧力、押出し速度、紡口孔径、および巻取速度によって製造すべき繊維のデニール構成を種々に変えることができるが、この点に関しては通常の合成繊維の溶融紡糸の場合と同様である。ただし、巻き取られた繊維間で膠着が生じることを防ぐために、巻取前の紡糸した糸に界面活性剤水溶液、あるいはそれに微粒子化されたタルクや炭酸カルシウムなどを分散させた水溶液を塗布しておくと良い。紡糸温度としては通常180~350℃、紡糸ドラフトとしては5~200,巻取速度としては20~1000m/分の範囲が一般的に好ましい。
