Polymeric blends comprise 20-80% by weight of a modified vinyl-aromatic polymer containing from 5 to 15% by weight of an ethylenically unsaturated nitrile, and 80-20% by weight of at least one resin containing aromatic groups selected from certain defined aromatic polycarbonates and certain defined crystalline aromatic polyesters.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Polymeric blends based on vinyl-aromatic polymers
The present invention relates to polymeric blends based on vinyl-aromatic polymers, and more particularly to blends which contains an alkenyl-aromatic resin and are suitable to be transformed into shaped articles by injection moulding extrusion or other known processing techniques for thermoplastic polymers.
From British Patent Application No. 2 067 579 A are known vinyl-aromatic polymers which possess an improved stress cracking resistance and are particularly suitable to be moulded or vacuum shaped.
These vinyl-aromatic polymers modified with rubber are characterized in that they contain from 6 to 12% by weight of an ethylenically unsaturated nitrile, such as acrylonitrile, bound to the two phase system of the polymer, and exhibit the following particular combination of characteristics:
(a) the dispersed elastomeric gel phase insoluble in toluene is not less than 23% by weight;
(b) the swelling index of the elastomeric phase in toluene is greater than 10;
(c) the melt index of the.polymer is at least 1.5 g./1 0 min.;
(d) the bending modulus of the polymer is greater than 1 5,000 kg/cm2;
(e) the torsional modulus of the polymer is greater than 5,500 kg/cm2;
(f) the notched IZOD impact strength at230Cofthe polymer is greater than 7 kg.cm/cm.
The methods of measuring the above-mentioned characteristics are described in the Patent
Application No. 2 067 5i9A.
Such modified vinyl-aromatic polymers are particularly suitable to be used in the production both of refrigerator cells and of other articles obtained by thermoforming the extruded sheets. Such polymers can be easily manufactured by processes which are presently in use. Furthermore, they are compatible both with polystyrol or impact resistant polystyrol, as well as with ABS thermopolymers and styrol/acrylonitrile copolymers (SAN).
Nevertheless, these vinyl-aromatic polymers modified with an ethylenically unsaturated nitrile, and also in general all vinyl-aromatic polymers, have the drawback of having a low heat distorsion temperature so that their thermal resistance is not sufficiently satisfactory to meet the necessary requirements in some fields of application, for example in the automotive industry.
The present invention aims to improve the thermal resistance of vinyl-aromatic polymers modified with an ethylenically unsaturated nitrile, without altering and preferably improving their chemicalphysical properties.
According to the present invention, there is provided a polymeric blend containing: -from 20 to 80% by weight, with respect to the blend, of a modified vinyl-aromatic polymer container from 5 to 1 5% by weight of an ethylenically unsaturated nitrile; -from 80 to 20% by weight, with respect to the blend, of at least one resin containing aromatic groups selected from:
(a) an aromatic polycarbonate having repeating structural units of the formula::
in which R1, R2, R3 and R4 each represents hydrogen or an alkyl radical containing from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and A represents -0-, -CO-, SO2, an a Ikylene radical containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, an alkylidene radical containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a cyclo-alkylene radical containing from 5 to 15 carbon atoms, a cyclo-alkylidene radical containing from 5 to 15 carbon atoms or the radical:
and
(b) a crystalline aromatic polyester obtained by polymerization of a glycol of general formula:
HO-(CH2)n-OH
(II) in which n is an integer from 2 to 10, with a bicarboxylic acid of formula::
HOOC-R5-B-R6-COOH
(III) in which R5 and R6 each represents (CH2) where m is zero or an integer from 1 to 4 and B is a bivalent aromatic radical represented by:
in which D may be: -(CH2)-; -(CH2)0-(CH2)-; (CH2)pO(CH2) -; (CH2)q
where p may be zero or an integer from 1 to 5 and q is an integer from 1 to 5.
The term vinyl-aromatic polymer as used herein is to be understood to include any solid thermoplastic polymer and respective copolymer, essentially consisting of (i.e. containing chemically bound) at least 50% by weight of one or more vinyi-aromatic compounds of general formula:
in which X represents hydrogen or an alkyl radical having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; Y represents
hydrogen, a halogen or an alkyl radical having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; and n is zero or an integer from
1 to 5.
Examples of vinyl-aromatic compounds having the formula (IV) are: styrene; methyl styrene; mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, and penta-chloro-styrene and the respective alpha-methyl-styrenes; styrenes alkylated in the nucleus and the respective alpha-methyl-styrenes such as ortho- and para-methylstyrenes and ortho- and para-ethyl-styrenes; and ortho- and para-alpha-methyl-styrenes. These monomers may be used alone or in admixture with each other.
The term vinyl-aromatic polymers also includes polystyrenes modified with rubbers, which are generally employed to render the polymers impact-resistant.
The rubbers which are generally used for this purpose are polybutadiene, polyisoprene, copolymers of butadiene and/or of isoprene with styrene or with other monomers, having a glass transition temperature (Tg) lower than -200C, or the saturated rubbers such as ethylene-propylene rubbers, ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymers, and siliconic rubbers with unsaturated groups.
The vinyi-aromatic polymers contain from 5 to 15%, and preferably less than "r 10% by weight, of an ethylenically unsaturated nitrile such as acrylonitrile or methacrylonitrile.
The aromatic polycarbonates containing the repeating structural units (I) are well known in the art and are commercially available from different sources, for example General Eiectric Company, Pittsfield,
Mass., USA under the Trade Mark "LEXAN"; or from ANIC of S. Donato Milanese, Milan, Italy under the
Trade Mark "SINVET".
Generally any aromatic polycarbonate may be used; however those obtained from bisphenol A are particularly preferred. Thegolycarbonates employed in the composition of the present invention suitably have a molecular weight Mw ranging from 10,000 to over 200,000, more preferably from 20,000 to 60,000.
The crystalline polyesters are well known in the art and are commercially available from different sources.
Representative examples of crystalline polyesters obtained by polymerization of a glycol (II) with a bicarboxylic acid (III) are: polyethylene-terephthalate, polybutene-terephthalate, and polyethylene-2,2' di-phenoxy-ethane-4,4'-dicarboxyl ate.
These crystalline polyesters preferably have a molecular weight ranging from 10,000 to 60,000.
The polymeric blends of the present invention can be prepared in different ways, for example by single screw or double-screw extrusion and subsequent granulation, or by mastication in a Banbury mixer and subsequent cube shaping by means of a calender.
To the blends may be added optional additives such as antistatic agents, flame proofing agents, lubricating agents, colouring agents, physical and chemical expanding agents such as Freon, pentane,or azodicarbonamide.The blend can bye also reinforced by glass fibres or synthetic fibres. "FREON" is a
Registered Trade Mark.
The invention will be further described with reference to the following illustrative Examples. In the
Examples all the parts are expressed by weight, unless indicated otherwise.
The properties of the blends of the present invention have been tested on test pieces moulded by injection, by using the following methods:
1. The heat distortion temperature (HDT) was determined according to the standard ASTM D 648, at 66 psi and at 264 psi.
2. The Vicat softening point procedure A was determined according to the standard ASTM D 1 525.
3. ThelZOD impact strength was determined at 230C according to the standard ASTM D 256, by using test pieces of size 1/2" x -1/8" (1.27 cm x 0.32 cm).
4. The tests for the resistance against Freon (ESC) were carried out on test pieces subjected to creep in a tensile test, maintaining their central part, for a 40 mm stretch, in contact with liquid Freon 11. For this purpose, a glass container containing Freon 11 was fixed, by means of a rubber gasket, to.
the lower end of the vertically arranged test piece, in correspondence with its wider stretch. The test piece was subjected to a load'of 100 Kg/cm2 and the time~necessary for the rupture of the same was measured.
