Description

本発明は、吸湿特性、寸法安定性に優れた導光板に関する。   The present invention relates to a light guide plate excellent in moisture absorption characteristics and dimensional stability.

アクリル系樹脂は、透明性、耐光性、表面硬度に優れるため、自動車外装部品、エクステリア用品等の屋外用途に広く使用されている。また、アクリル系樹脂は可視光領域の光線透過率ではガラス並み以上の特性を有し、また成形後の複屈折は小さく、光学的に非常に優れたプラスチックの一つである。そのため、従来からアクリル系樹脂は種々の光学材料として利用されており、光学用プラスチックレンズや光学式ディスク、導光板等の光学用途部品としての応用が進んでいる。
しかしながら、アクリル系樹脂は透明性や成形性に優れるものの、低い衝撃強度や長期使用による吸湿が原因で発生する成形品の反りや寸法変化といった不具合が発生することが知られている。更には耐熱性の不足により、使用条件によっては容易に成形品が変形してしまうという問題があった。
そこで、アクリル系単量体とスチレン系単量体からなるスチレン−(メタ)アクリル酸エステル系共重合体を使用することが提案されている(特許文献1:特開2003−75648号、特許文献2:特開2003−165885号)が、今だ満足されるものは得られていない。

Acrylic resins are widely used in outdoor applications such as automobile exterior parts and exterior products because of their excellent transparency, light resistance, and surface hardness. Acrylic resin is one of the plastics that is optically very excellent because it has a light transmittance in the visible light region that is more than that of glass and has a small birefringence after molding. For this reason, acrylic resins have been conventionally used as various optical materials, and their application as optical parts such as optical plastic lenses, optical discs, and light guide plates is progressing.
However, although acrylic resin is excellent in transparency and moldability, it is known that defects such as warpage and dimensional change of a molded product caused by low impact strength and moisture absorption due to long-term use occur. Furthermore, due to the lack of heat resistance, there is a problem that the molded product is easily deformed depending on the use conditions.
Therefore, it has been proposed to use a styrene- (meth) acrylic ester copolymer comprising an acrylic monomer and a styrene monomer (Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-75648, Patent Document). 2: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-165858) is not yet satisfied.

本発明の目的は、吸湿特性、寸法安定性の良好な導光板を提供することにある。   An object of the present invention is to provide a light guide plate having good moisture absorption characteristics and dimensional stability.

本発明者らはかかる課題に鑑み鋭意検討を行った結果、特定の単量体組成からなる特定の熱可塑性樹脂を使用することにより、上記の目的を達成することを見出し本発明に達したものである。 As a result of intensive studies in view of such problems, the present inventors have found that the above object can be achieved by using a specific thermoplastic resin having a specific monomer composition, and the present invention has been achieved. It is.

本発明にて得られた導光板は、比較的低温での成形を可能とする流動性を有し、吸湿特性に優れているため、恒温多湿下での製品のそり・変形を抑制でき、工業的価値の高い導光板として使用可能である。   The light guide plate obtained in the present invention has fluidity that enables molding at a relatively low temperature and has excellent moisture absorption characteristics, so that it is possible to suppress warping and deformation of the product under constant temperature and high humidity, It can be used as a light guide plate with high value.

すなわち、本発明は、不飽和カルボン酸系単量体5〜40重量部、芳香族ビニル系単量体60〜95重量%からなり、重量平均分子量が5〜15万、且つ分子量分布が2.0〜3.0の範囲である熱可塑性樹脂を成形して得られた導光板を提供するものである。 That is, the present invention comprises 5 to 40 parts by weight of an unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer, 60 to 95% by weight of an aromatic vinyl monomer, a weight average molecular weight of 5 to 150,000, and a molecular weight distribution of 2. A light guide plate obtained by molding a thermoplastic resin having a range of 0 to 3.0 is provided.

以下、本発明について詳細に説明する。
本発明における導光板は、不飽和カルボン酸系単量体5〜40重量部、芳香族ビニル系単量体60〜95重量%からなり、重量平均分子量が5〜15万、且つ分子量分布が2.0〜3.0の範囲である熱可塑性樹脂を成形して得られるものである。
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
The light guide plate in the present invention comprises 5 to 40 parts by weight of an unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer, 60 to 95% by weight of an aromatic vinyl monomer, a weight average molecular weight of 5 to 150,000, and a molecular weight distribution of 2. It is obtained by molding a thermoplastic resin in the range of 0.0 to 3.0.

本発明における熱可塑性樹脂を構成する不飽和カルボン酸系単量体としては、アクリル酸、メタクリル酸、(無水)マレイン酸等が例示され、1種または2種以上選択して使用することができる。   Examples of the unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer constituting the thermoplastic resin in the present invention include acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, (anhydrous) maleic acid and the like, and one or more kinds can be selected and used. .

また、本発明における熱可塑性樹脂を構成する芳香族ビニル系単量体としては、スチレン、α−メチルスチレン、パラメチルスチレン等が挙げられ、1種または2種以上選択して使用することができる。特にこれらの中でスチレンが好ましい。   In addition, examples of the aromatic vinyl monomer constituting the thermoplastic resin in the present invention include styrene, α-methylstyrene, paramethylstyrene, and the like, and one or more types can be selected and used. . Of these, styrene is particularly preferred.

上記熱可塑性樹脂を構成する不飽和カルボン酸系単量体が5重量%未満では耐熱性に劣り、その結果寸法安定性が損なわれるため好ましくない。一方不飽和カルボン酸系単量体が40重量%以上では、流動性が著しく低下し、特に射出成形においては成形性が大幅に低下するため好ましくない。   If the unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer constituting the thermoplastic resin is less than 5% by weight, the heat resistance is inferior, and as a result, the dimensional stability is impaired. On the other hand, when the unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer is 40% by weight or more, the fluidity is remarkably lowered, and particularly in the injection molding, the moldability is greatly lowered, which is not preferable.

熱可塑性樹脂の重量平均分子量が5万未満では衝撃強度が劣り、製品搬送時などに割れを生じたり、離型時にクラック・割れを引き起こす可能性がある。また重量平均分子量が15万を超えると生産性が低下し経済性が劣るのみならず、流動性が低下するため薄肉成形品が得られず好ましくない。 If the weight average molecular weight of the thermoplastic resin is less than 50,000, the impact strength is inferior, and there is a possibility that cracking may occur during product transportation or cracking / cracking during mold release. On the other hand, if the weight average molecular weight exceeds 150,000, not only the productivity is lowered and the economy is inferior, but also the fluidity is lowered.

さらに、熱可塑性樹脂の分子量分布が2.0未満ものは、重合転化率を抑制する必要があり経済性に劣る。また3.0を超えると流動性が低下し、薄肉成形品が得られ難くなるため好ましくない。
なお、上記熱可塑性樹脂の重量平均分子量および分子量分布を調整する方法としては、熱可塑性樹脂を重合するに際して、その重合方法、重合温度、または使用する重合開始剤や分子量調整剤の使用量を適宜設定することにより調整することが可能である。
また、熱可塑性樹脂の重量平均分子量および分子量分布については、熱可塑性樹脂をテトラヒドロフランに溶解した後、島津高速液体クロマトグラフィー(HSGカラム)を用いてポリスチレン換算分子量より、重量平均分子量および分子量分布を測定した。
Furthermore, when the molecular weight distribution of the thermoplastic resin is less than 2.0, it is necessary to suppress the polymerization conversion rate, which is inferior in economic efficiency. On the other hand, if it exceeds 3.0, the fluidity is lowered, and it is difficult to obtain a thin molded product.
In addition, as a method for adjusting the weight average molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the thermoplastic resin, when polymerizing the thermoplastic resin, the polymerization method, the polymerization temperature, or the amount of the polymerization initiator or molecular weight regulator used is appropriately determined. It is possible to adjust by setting.
Regarding the weight average molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of thermoplastic resins, after dissolving the thermoplastic resin in tetrahydrofuran, the weight average molecular weight and molecular weight distribution are measured from the polystyrene equivalent molecular weight using Shimadzu high performance liquid chromatography (HSG column). did.

Among them, a bulk polymerization method or a solution polymerization method is preferable, and a continuous bulk or solution polymerization method is more preferably used. More specifically, a raw material in which an unsaturated carboxylic acid, an aromatic vinyl monomer, and, if necessary, a solvent such as ethylbenzene, toluene, and methyl ethyl ketone are mixed is supplied to the polymerization step to polymerize the monomer. After the step and the step, the mixed liquid containing the polymer, unreacted monomer and / or solvent is heated, and simultaneously or after heating, the mixture is introduced into the decompression chamber to remove the unreacted monomer and / or solvent from the polymer. Separation / recovery process for separation, and further, the polymer discharged from the recovery process comprises a granulation process that is pelletized by adding additives such as colorants, antioxidants, and fillers as necessary. It is preferable. In addition, the thermoplastic resin thus obtained preferably has a volatile component of 3000 ppm or less from the viewpoint of optical properties and light resistance. As a method for reducing the volatile components, for example, the polymerization temperature during polymerization, the polymerization initiator to be used, the addition amount of the molecular weight regulator, and the operation such as devolatilization by an extruder in the granulation step may be used.

尚、ヒンダードアミン系安定剤は分子量600以上のものを使用することが、過熱時に昇華し難いため好ましい。
これらヒンダードアミン系光安定剤は、熱可塑性樹脂100重量部に対して0.01〜5.0重量部の割合で配合することが好ましく、この範囲で添加することにより十分な耐光性が得られるが、その添加量が5.0重量部を超えると耐熱性の低下、衝撃強度の低下、金型汚染などの問題が発生するため好ましくない。好ましくは0.03〜2.0重量部である。
Further, hindered amine light stabilizers that can be added to the thermoplastic resin include bis (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl) sebacate, bis (2,2,6,6-tetra). Methyl-4-piperidyl) succinate, bis (1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinyl) sebacate, bis (1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl) sebacate, 2- (3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl) -2-n-butylmalonate bis (1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl), dimethyl succinate-1- ( 2-hydroxyethyl) -4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine polycondensate, poly [{6- (1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl) amino-1,3,5 − Triazine-2,4-diyl} {2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl} imino] hexamethylene {(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl) imino}], N , N′-bis (3-aminopropyl) ethylenediamine-2,4-bis [N-butyl-N- (1,2,2.6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl) amino] -6-chloro-1, 3,5-triazine condensate, bis (1-octyloxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl) sebacate, 4-benzoyloxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, 4- Examples thereof include methacryloxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, and the like can be used alone or in combination of two or more.
In addition, it is preferable to use a hindered amine stabilizer having a molecular weight of 600 or more because it is difficult for sublimation during overheating.
These hindered amine light stabilizers are preferably blended at a ratio of 0.01 to 5.0 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the thermoplastic resin, and sufficient light resistance can be obtained by adding in this range. If the added amount exceeds 5.0 parts by weight, problems such as a decrease in heat resistance, a decrease in impact strength, and mold contamination occur. Preferably it is 0.03-2.0 weight part.

また、本発明の熱可塑性樹脂には、ベンゾトリアゾール系、ベンゾフェノン系等の紫外線吸収剤を含有させることは、樹脂の着色性の観点から望ましくないが、樹脂の着色が認められない程度の含有量、即ち上記紫外線吸収剤の添加量は0.5重量部未満であることが好ましい。
さらに本発明の熱可塑性樹脂には、その特性を損なわない範囲内で、滑剤、離型剤、酸化防止剤、帯電防止剤、有機系光拡散剤、無機系光拡散剤などの各種添加剤含有させることができる。
In addition, it is not desirable from the viewpoint of the colorability of the resin that the thermoplastic resin of the present invention contains an ultraviolet absorber such as benzotriazole or benzophenone, but the content is such that the resin is not colored. That is, the addition amount of the ultraviolet absorber is preferably less than 0.5 parts by weight.
Furthermore, the thermoplastic resin of the present invention contains various additives such as a lubricant, a mold release agent, an antioxidant, an antistatic agent, an organic light diffusing agent, and an inorganic light diffusing agent within the range not impairing the characteristics.

本発明の導光板を成形する際の成形温度は250〜350℃であることが好ましく、250℃未満では、成形歪が残りやすく、そり・変形の原因となる。一方、350℃を超えると樹脂の分解温度領域に達するために、シルバーストリークや焼けによる外観不良を引き起こす原因となるため好ましくない。   The molding temperature when molding the light guide plate of the present invention is preferably 250 to 350 ° C., and if it is less than 250 ° C., molding distortion tends to remain, which causes warpage and deformation. On the other hand, if it exceeds 350 ° C., it reaches the decomposition temperature range of the resin, and this causes an appearance defect due to silver streak or burning, which is not preferable.

また本発明の導光板を得るには、射出成形、押出し成形、異型押出し成形、パイプ成形等目的に応じた成形方法にて成形することが可能である。   Moreover, in order to obtain the light guide plate of the present invention, it is possible to mold by a molding method according to the purpose such as injection molding, extrusion molding, profile extrusion molding, pipe molding and the like.
