Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a tenacious polyester-based resin expanded sheet having excellent after-processing properties and impact strength and to provide a method for producing the same. SOLUTION: This polyester-based resin expanded sheet comprises a thermoplastic polyester-based resin being amorphous or having low degree of crystallization as a main component and has a molecular structure of the partially crosslinked thermoplastic polyester-based resin and closed cells with a low expansion ratio. A copolymer obtained by replacing 10-50 mol% of ethylene glycol of a polyethylene glycol with cyclohexane dimethanol is preferably used as the thermoplastic polyester-based resin of the main component and an epoxy modified resin is used as a crosslinking agent to carry out crosslinking. This method for producing the polyester-based resin expanded sheet comprises compounding the thermoplastic polyester-based resin of the main component with the crosslinking agent, extrusion molding the mixture while foaming and crosslinking and pushing out the extruded foam preferably by polishing rolls into a sheet.

The resin which is the main component of the foamed sheet is a non-crystalline or low-crystalline thermoplastic polyester resin. Specifically, 10 to 50 mol% of ethylene glycol of polyethylene terephthalate is cyclohexanediethylene glycol. A copolymer replaced with methanol is preferably used. This copolymer is a copolymer composed of a combination of terephthalic acid, ethylene glycol and cyclohexane dimethanol, and is a copolymer having a structure in which ethylene terephthalate and cyclohexane dimethylene terephthalate are connected in a random or block manner, As described above, a copolymer in which 10 to 50 mol% of ethylene glycol is replaced by cyclohexane dimethanol, that is, a copolymer in which cyclohexane dimethylene terephthalate accounts for 10 to 50 mol%, has a non-crystalline or low crystallinity. Because it is a resin, it is possible to obtain a foamed sheet that is tenacious and difficult to break.

As the crosslinking agent, epoxy-modified resins such as epoxidized styrene / butadiene / styrene block copolymer and epoxidized butadiene rubber are preferably used. The amount of the crosslinking agent is preferably about 0.5 to 20 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the thermoplastic polyester resin as the main component. When the amount is less than 0.5 part by weight, a sufficient effect of improving physical properties is obtained. On the other hand, if the amount is more than 20 parts by weight, there is a disadvantage that the foamed sheet becomes hard and brittle due to dense crosslinking.

The non-crystalline copolymer used as the main component resin may be mixed with polyethylene terephthalate or another polyester resin. In this case, the main component copolymer is used as the foamed sheet. It is desirable to mix a small amount of another polyester resin so as to account for 80% by weight or more. If the mixing ratio of the main component copolymer is less than 80% due to too large a mixing amount of the other polyester resin, inconvenience such as a decrease in the tenacity and impact strength of the foamed sheet occurs.

The above-mentioned foamed polyester resin sheet is prepared by blending a foaming agent and the above-mentioned crosslinking agent with the above-mentioned thermoplastic polyester resin (copolymer) which is non-crystalline or has a low crystallization rate. It is manufactured efficiently by extruding from the mold at the tip of the extruder while heating, melting, kneading, foaming and crosslinking inside.

Examples of the foaming agent include a chemical foaming agent which generates a gas by being thermally decomposed at a temperature not higher than the internal temperature of the extruder at the time of extrusion molding, for example, azodicarbonamide, sodium bicarbonate, barium azodicarboxylate and the like. It is preferably used. It is preferable that the addition amount of the foaming agent is appropriately adjusted in the range of 0.2 to 5 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the resin component in consideration of the expansion ratio of the foamed sheet. If the amount of the foaming agent is less than 0.2 parts by weight, a sufficient foaming effect cannot be obtained. If the amount is more than 5 parts by weight, moisture and ammonia gas generated at the time of foaming are too large, and the effect of the crosslinking agent is lost. For,
A foam sheet having weak physical properties may be obtained, or formation of closed cells (cells) may not be possible.

When such a foaming agent is blended with the above-mentioned thermoplastic polyester resin together with the above-mentioned crosslinking agent, and is heated to a temperature not lower than the melting point of the resin inside the extruder and uniformly kneaded while being melted. A part of the resin is cross-linked by the cross-linking agent, and the blowing agent thermally decomposes inside the extruder to generate gas, and when the molten resin is extruded from the die at the tip of the extruder, it is foamed due to rapid pressure reduction. Thus, a foam sheet is formed. At that time, since the cross-linking prevents a decrease in viscosity or physical properties due to hydrolysis of the thermoplastic polyester-based resin, a foam sheet having uniform and fine closed cells is formed without destruction of cell walls at the time of foaming. You. Moreover, the thermoplastic polyester-based resin as the main component is non-crystalline or has a low crystallization rate and does not crystallize quickly during cooling after extrusion, so it is tenacious and has an impact strength and post-processability. A good polyester resin foam sheet is formed.

In the above-mentioned manufacturing method, it is desirable that the foam immediately after extrusion is pressed by a polishing roll to form a sheet. By forming the sheet with the polishing roll in this way, the foam sheet can be regulated to a predetermined thickness. Thus, the expansion ratio can be adjusted, and the surface skin of the foam sheet can be finely finished.
