Disclosure of Invention
Technical problem to be solved by the invention
However, the fluoropolymer has a high melt viscosity, and a strong stress is required for melt-kneading the fluoropolymer and the filler. In this case, the properties (particularly, physical properties such as shape and surface state) of the filler itself are impaired, and the physical properties of the filler in the molded article are liable to be deteriorated. The inventors have found that this tendency becomes more pronounced when brittle fillers of low hardness are used, and more pronounced when low-hardness and anisotropic fillers are used.
The present inventors have intensively studied to obtain a material suitable for molding the above molded article without melt kneading. As a result, the dispersion liquid containing the powder of the predetermined fluoropolymer and the predetermined anisotropic filler has excellent dispersion stability and good workability such as coatability. Further, the anisotropic filler of the molded article formed therefrom is not easily impaired in properties and has high physical properties of both.

Detailed Description
The "average particle diameter (D50)" is a cumulative 50% diameter on a volume basis of an object (powder or filler) determined by a laser diffraction/scattering method. That is, the particle size distribution of the object was measured by a laser diffraction scattering method, and a cumulative curve was obtained with the total volume of the particle group of the object as 100%, and the particle size at the point where the cumulative volume reached 50% on the cumulative curve.
"D90" is a cumulative 90% diameter on a volume basis of the object measured in the same manner.
The "particle size distribution" is a distribution represented by a curve obtained by plotting the particle amount (%) in each particle size range obtained in the same manner.
The "melting temperature" is a temperature corresponding to the maximum value of the melting peak of the polymer measured by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC).
The "glass transition temperature" is a value measured by analyzing a polymer by a dynamic viscoelasticity measurement (DMA) method.
The "unit" in the polymer may be a radical formed directly from a monomer by polymerization, or a radical in which a part of the structure of a polymer obtained by polymerization is converted by treating the polymer in a predetermined method. The unit based on the monomer a contained in the polymer is also referred to simply as "monomer a unit".
The dispersion liquid of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as "present dispersion liquid") comprises a powder (hereinafter referred to as "F powder") of a tetrafluoroethylene-based polymer (hereinafter referred to as "F polymer") containing a perfluoro (alkyl vinyl ether) (PAVE unit) unit or a Hexafluoropropylene (HFP) unit (HFP unit), an anisotropic filler having a mohs hardness of 4 or less, and a liquid dispersion medium.
The average particle size of the F powder is smaller than the average particle size of the anisotropic filler. The dispersion liquid contains F powder and anisotropic filler dispersed therein.
The dispersion liquid is excellent in dispersion stability and workability, and can easily form a molded article having high physical properties of the F polymer and the anisotropic filler. The reason is not clear, but is considered to be the following.
The anisotropic filler of the present invention is amorphous and has various properties (crystal habit, etc.), and can be said to be a weak filler. In the present dispersion, the state of the anisotropic filler is unstable and aggregation or sedimentation is liable to occur. In addition, the shape or state of the anisotropic filler is easily destroyed by physical stress (shear stress or the like).
On the other hand, the F polymer is a polymer having plasticity represented by hot melt processability, and its powder (F powder) is less susceptible to physical stress and has excellent dispersibility.
The present dispersion is in a state where the average particle diameter of the F powder is smaller than the average particle diameter of the anisotropic filler, in other words, in a state where the dispersion is contained densely and the affinity between the anisotropic filler and the F powder tends to be relatively high. That is, in the present dispersion, since the F powder is contained densely in a finer particle state, it is considered that pseudo secondary particles are easily formed between the F powder and the anisotropic filler. As a result, the dispersion state of the anisotropic filler is stabilized, and therefore the dispersion liquid is considered to be excellent in dispersion stability and handling property.
When F powder is melt-fired while removing the liquid dispersion medium from the dispersion, it is easy to mold a molded article while suppressing deformation of the anisotropic filler. In addition, in the process of removing the liquid dispersion medium, a highly filled molded article can be easily obtained while the anisotropic filler is oriented. As a result, it is considered that a molded article having high physical properties of the F polymer and the anisotropic filler is obtained from the present dispersion.
For example, if a molded article is formed from the present dispersion liquid containing a scaly or plate-like anisotropic filler, the anisotropic filler is oriented parallel to the surface (planar direction) of the molded article, and the physical properties of the anisotropic filler in the molded article are likely to be highly exhibited. Therefore, if the dispersion is used, even a sheet-like molded article tends to exhibit high physical properties of the F polymer and anisotropic filler.
Further, when the anisotropic filler is in the form of a flake or a plate, the anisotropic filler forms a structure of a card house (structure カードハウス in Japanese), and not only the liquid properties (viscosity, dispersion stability, etc.) of the present dispersion are improved, but also the anisotropic filler is more easily highly dispersed in a molded product formed therefrom. As a result, the molded product can be easily made excellent in electrical characteristics. When the molded article is subjected to stress, the anisotropic filler easily disperses the stress, and the mechanical strength (e.g., bendability) is easily improved. Further, since channels for the anisotropic filler are formed in the molded article, the thermal conductivity of the molded article is easily improved.
The F powder in the present dispersion is preferably formed of an F polymer. The content of the F polymer in the powder is preferably 80% by mass or more, and more preferably 100% by mass.
Examples of the other component that may be contained in the F powder include a resin different from the F polymer and an inorganic substance. Examples of the different resin include aromatic polyester, polyamide-imide, thermoplastic polyimide, polyphenylene ether, and polyphenylene ether.
Examples of the inorganic substance include silicon dioxide (silica), metal oxides (beryllium oxide, cerium oxide, aluminum oxide, basic aluminum oxide, magnesium oxide, zinc oxide, titanium oxide, and the like), boron nitride, and magnesium metasilicate (talc).
The F powder containing a resin or an inorganic substance different from the F polymer preferably has a core-shell structure in which the F polymer is a core and the resin or the inorganic substance is a shell, or a core-shell structure in which the resin or the inorganic substance is a core and the F polymer is a shell. The F powder can be obtained, for example, by bonding (collision, aggregation, or the like) a powder of the F polymer to a powder of the resin or inorganic substance.

D50 of the F powder is preferably 0.01 μm or more, more preferably 0.1 μm or more, and still more preferably 1 μm or more. The D90 content of the F powder is preferably 20 μm or less, more preferably 10 μm or less. If the D50 and D90 content in the F powder falls within this range, the affinity with the anisotropic filler is further improved, and the dispersion stability of the dispersion and the physical properties of the molded article are more easily improved.
The content of the F powder in the present dispersion is preferably 5 mass% or more, more preferably 10 mass% or more, and still more preferably 25 mass% or more. The content of the F powder is preferably 50 mass% or less, more preferably 40 mass% or less, and still more preferably 30 mass% or less. When the content of the F powder is within this range, the F powder contained densely can improve the affinity between the F powder and the anisotropic filler, and the dispersion stability of the dispersion can be easily further improved. In addition, the physical properties of the polymer F in the molded article are likely to be remarkably exhibited.
The F polymer in the present dispersion is a polymer containing Tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) based units (TFE units). The F polymer may include both PAVE units and HFP units, or may include only either.

The latter form may, for example, be an F polymer having a polar functional group as an end group derived from a polymerization initiator, a chain transfer agent or the like, or an F polymer having a polar functional group obtained by subjecting an F polymer to plasma treatment or ionization treatment.
The polar functional group is preferably a hydroxyl-containing group and a carbonyl-containing group, and more preferably a carbonyl-containing group from the viewpoint of further improving the dispersion stability of the present dispersion.

The number of carbonyl groups in the F polymer is 1X 10 relative to the number of carbon atoms in the main chain6Is described in10 to 5000, more preferably 100 to 3000, and still more preferably 800 to 1500. The number of carbonyl groups contained in the polymer F can be determined by the composition of the polymer or by the method described in International publication No. 2020/145133.
The F polymer is preferably a tetrafluoroethylene polymer containing PAVE units in an amount of 1.5 to 5.0 mol% relative to the total units, more preferably a polymer (1) having polar functional groups containing PAVE units and units derived from a monomer having polar functional groups, or a polymer (2) having no polar functional groups containing PAVE units in an amount of 2.0 to 5.0 mol% relative to the total units.
These F polymers are excellent in the dispersion stability of the powder, and are more easily densely and homogeneously distributed in a molded article (polymer layer or the like) formed from the dispersion. Further, fine spherulites are easily formed in the molded article, and adhesion to other components is easily improved. As a result, a molded product having high physical properties of each of the three components can be more easily formed.
The polymer (1) preferably contains units based on a monomer having a polar functional group in an amount of 90 to 99 mol% of TFE units, 1.5 to 9.97 mol% of PAVE units and 0.01 to 3 mol% relative to the total units.
The monomer having a polar functional group is preferably itaconic anhydride, citraconic anhydride or 5-norbornene-2, 3-dicarboxylic anhydride (alias: nadic anhydride; hereinafter also referred to as "NAH").

The polymer (2) preferably consists of TFE units and PAVE units alone, and contains 95.0 to 98.0 mol% of TFE units and 2.0 to 5.0 mol% of PAVE units relative to the total units.
The content of PAVE units in the polymer (2) is preferably 2.1 mol% or more, more preferably 2.2 mol% or more, relative to the total units.
The polymer (2) having no polar functional group means that the number of carbon atoms constituting the main chain of the polymer is 1X 106And the number of the polar functional groups of the polymer is less than 500. As described aboveThe number of polar functional groups is preferably 100 or less, more preferably less than 50. The lower limit of the number of the polar functional groups is usually 0.
The polymer (2) may be produced by using a polymerization initiator or a chain transfer agent which does not generate a polar functional group to be an end group of a polymer chain, or may be produced by subjecting an F polymer having a polar functional group (e.g., an F polymer having a polar functional group derived from a polymerization initiator at an end group of a polymer main chain) to a fluorination treatment. As a method of the fluorination treatment, a method using a fluorine gas can be mentioned (see Japanese patent laid-open publication No. 2019-194314).
The mohs hardness of the anisotropic filler in the present invention is 4 or less, preferably 3 or less. The mohs hardness of the anisotropic filler is preferably 1 or more, more preferably 2 or more. Even if the anisotropic filler is brittle and has a mohs hardness within this range, the affinity between the anisotropic filler and the F powder can provide the dispersion liquid with excellent dispersion stability, and the physical properties of the filler in the molded article can be easily improved.
The anisotropic filler may be used in 1 kind or 2 or more kinds having different average particle diameters or kinds.
The shape of the anisotropic filler of the present invention may be any of granular shape, needle shape (fibrous shape), and plate shape.

The shape of the anisotropic filler is preferably scaly or plate-like. When the scale-like or plate-like anisotropic filler is used, the structure of the card house is formed, and not only the liquid properties (viscosity, dispersion stability, etc.) of the dispersion liquid are easily improved, but also the orientation of the filler in the molded product is easily improved, and the functions (mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, electrical characteristics, etc.) of the molded product are easily improved.
Examples of the anisotropic filler include a carbon filler, a nitride filler, a mica filler, a clay filler, and a talc filler, and preferably a filler containing boron nitride or talc, and more preferably a filler containing boron nitride. The crystal form of boron nitride may be any of hexagonal crystal, rhombohedral crystal, cubic crystal, and wurtzite. The anisotropic filler-containing dispersion liquid is excellent in dispersion stability and handling properties. Further, the electrical interference imparted to the F polymer by the filler in the molded article tends to increase, and as a result, the electrical characteristics (particularly, the dielectric loss tangent) of the molded article tends to be improved. Further, the molded article is easily improved in thermal conductivity.
The content of boron nitride in the boron nitride-containing filler is preferably 95% by mass or more, more preferably 99% by mass or more, and still more preferably 99.5% by mass or more. The upper limit of the content is 100 mass%. In this case, the molded article is likely to have low linear expansibility and good electrical properties.

The specific surface area of the anisotropic filler is preferably 1-20 m2(iv)/g, more preferably 3 to 8m2(ii) in terms of/g. In this case, the anisotropic filler in the dispersion is easily wetted and the affinity with the F polymer is easily improved. In addition, the anisotropic filler and the F polymer in the molded article are more easily uniformly dispersed (distributed), and the physical properties of both are more easily exhibited in a well-balanced manner.
The surface of the anisotropic filler may be surface-treated.
Examples of the surface treatment agent include polyhydric alcohols (trimethylolethane, pentaerythritol, propylene glycol, etc.), saturated fatty acids (stearic acid, lauric acid, etc.), esters thereof, alkanolamines, amines (trimethylamine, triethylamine, etc.), paraffins, silane coupling agents, silicones, polysiloxanes, and inorganic substances (oxides, hydroxides, hydrated oxides, or phosphates of aluminum, silicon, zirconium, tin, titanium, antimony, etc.).
As the surface treatment agent, a silane coupling agent is preferable.

5. Example of production of Dispersion (second)
(example 11)
First, powder 1, surfactant 1 and NMP were added to a pot and mixed, and stirred with a homomixer at 2000rpm for 1 hour to obtain a composition. In another pot, filler 1, surfactant 1 and NMP were charged and stirred at 2000rpm for 1 hour by a homomixer to obtain a composition. Subsequently, the two compositions were put into another tank and stirred with a homomixer at 2000rpm for 1 hour to obtain a dispersion liquid 11 (viscosity: 300 mPas, component dispersion layer rate: 80%) containing powder 1(11 parts by mass), filler 1(11 parts by mass), surfactant 1(4 parts by mass) and NMP (74 parts by mass).
(example 12)
A dispersion 12 (viscosity: 300 mPas, component dispersed layer rate: 50%) was obtained in the same manner as in example 11, except that an ultrasonic homogenizer not involving stirring by a stirring blade was used in place of the homogenizing disperser.
6. Production example of laminate (second)
The dispersion 11 was applied roll-to-roll by the gravure reversal method on the surface of an aluminum foil 18 μm thick to form a liquid coating. Then, the aluminum foil on which the liquid coating was formed was passed through a drying oven at 120 ℃ for 5 minutes, and dried by heating. Thereafter, the dry film was heated at 340 ℃ for 3 minutes in a far infrared oven under a nitrogen atmosphere. Thus, a laminate 11 was produced in which a polymer layer (thickness: 10 μm) was formed on the surface of the aluminum foil. A laminate 12 was produced in the same manner as in the laminate 11, except that the dispersion 12 was used instead of the dispersion 11.

In addition, the polymer layers of laminate 11 have a lower dielectric loss tangent than the polymer layers of laminate 12.
