Description
本発明は、熱可塑性複合材料、その製造方法および低い線膨張係数を有する成形品に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a thermoplastic composite material, a method for producing the same, and a molded article having a low coefficient of linear expansion.
一般的に物質は加熱すると膨張するが、特に有機樹脂材料の線膨張係数は大きいことが知られている。例えば精密光学系などに代表されるデバイスにおいて有機樹脂材料から成る部材を使用する場合、温度変化による部材の寸法変化が大きいと、光学系の位置ずれを引き起こす原因となり得る。有機樹脂材料のみで精密光学系に使用する部材を作製する場合、その線膨張係数は20×10−6/℃以下であることが望まれている。 In general, substances expand when heated, but it is known that the coefficient of linear expansion of organic resin materials is particularly large. For example, when a member made of an organic resin material is used in a device typified by a precision optical system or the like, if the dimensional change of the member due to a temperature change is large, it may cause a displacement of the optical system. In the case where a member used for a precision optical system is manufactured using only an organic resin material, the linear expansion coefficient is desired to be 20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or less.
有機樹脂材料の熱膨張による光学系の位置ずれを防ぐ方法のひとつとして、負の線膨張(以下、負膨張)性を有する材料を有機樹脂材料から成る部材の周辺に組み込み寸法変化を補償する方法がある。負膨張性を有する材料としてタングステン酸ジルコニウムやリチウム−アルミニウム−シリコン酸化物、マンガンの窒化物などの無機材料が知られている。 As one of the methods for preventing the displacement of the optical system due to the thermal expansion of the organic resin material, a method of incorporating a material having negative linear expansion (hereinafter referred to as negative expansion) around the member made of the organic resin material to compensate for the dimensional change. There is. Inorganic materials such as zirconium tungstate, lithium-aluminum-silicon oxide, and manganese nitride are known as materials having negative expansibility.
また有機樹脂材料の熱膨張による光学系の位置ずれを防ぐ別の方法として、有機樹脂材料の熱膨張を低減させる方法がある。有機樹脂材料の熱膨張を低減する方法として、有機樹脂材料に無機微粒子を加えて線膨張係数を低下させる方法がよく知られている(特許文献1、特許文献2)。 Further, as another method for preventing the displacement of the optical system due to the thermal expansion of the organic resin material, there is a method of reducing the thermal expansion of the organic resin material. As a method for reducing the thermal expansion of the organic resin material, a method of adding inorganic fine particles to the organic resin material to reduce the linear expansion coefficient is well known (Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2).
しかしながら上述の負膨張性を有する材料はその線膨張係数の絶対値が最大でも25×10−6/℃と小さい。そのため有機樹脂材料の温度変化による膨張を補償するためには、相当の厚みまたは量の負膨張性を有する材料を用いた成形体が必要である。さらに負膨張性を有する材料は汎用の有機樹脂材料と比較してバルク成形が困難であるという問題がある。 However, the above-mentioned material having negative expansibility has an absolute value of linear expansion coefficient as small as 25 × 10 −6 / ° C. at the maximum. Therefore, in order to compensate for the expansion due to the temperature change of the organic resin material, a molded body using a material having a negative expansion property having a considerable thickness or amount is required. Furthermore, there is a problem that a material having negative expansibility is difficult to bulk form compared to a general-purpose organic resin material.
特許文献1に代表される有機樹脂材料に無機微粒子を加えて線膨張係数を低下させる方法では、熱硬化性樹脂に無機微粒子を加えることで20×10−6/℃以下の線膨張係数を達成している。しかし熱硬化性樹脂を成形する場合、樹脂の硬化収縮が発生するため成形品が変形や位置ずれを起こす問題がある。また硬化に伴う成形コストも高くなる。 In the method of adding inorganic fine particles to an organic resin material typified by Patent Document 1 to reduce the linear expansion coefficient, a linear expansion coefficient of 20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or less is achieved by adding inorganic fine particles to a thermosetting resin. is doing. However, when a thermosetting resin is molded, there is a problem in that the molded product is deformed or displaced due to the curing shrinkage of the resin. In addition, the molding cost associated with curing increases.
特許文献2では熱可塑性樹脂に無機微粒子を加えて線膨張係数の低減に成功しているが、20×10−6/℃以下の線膨張係数は得られていない。熱可塑性樹脂の線膨張係数を20×10−6/℃以下まで低減する場合、体積分率から単純計算すると、比重の軽いシリカを用いても80重量パーセント(約70体積パーセント)近くの量を添加する必要がある。しかし多量の無機微粒子を添加すると熱可塑性樹脂のバルク成形性を著しく損なうという問題が発生するため、実際に20×10−6/℃以下の線膨張係数を有する成形体を得ることは難しい。 In Patent Document 2, inorganic fine particles are added to a thermoplastic resin to successfully reduce the linear expansion coefficient, but a linear expansion coefficient of 20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or less has not been obtained. When the linear expansion coefficient of the thermoplastic resin is reduced to 20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or less, a simple calculation from the volume fraction shows that an amount close to 80 weight percent (about 70 volume percent) can be obtained even with light silica. It is necessary to add. However, when a large amount of inorganic fine particles are added, a problem occurs that the bulk moldability of the thermoplastic resin is remarkably impaired, so that it is difficult to actually obtain a molded article having a linear expansion coefficient of 20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or less.
以上の問題から、これまでに行われてきた有機樹脂材料に無機微粒子を加えて線膨張係数を低下させる方法では、有機樹脂材料を精密光学系などに使用することが困難であった。 Due to the above problems, it has been difficult to use an organic resin material for a precision optical system or the like in the conventional method of adding inorganic fine particles to an organic resin material to reduce the linear expansion coefficient.
本発明は、この様な背景技術に鑑みてなされたものであり、小さい線膨張係数を有する成形品を得ることができる熱可塑性複合材料およびその製造方法を提供するものである。 This invention is made | formed in view of such a background art, and provides the thermoplastic composite material which can obtain the molded article which has a small linear expansion coefficient, and its manufacturing method.

It can be suitably used as a low expansion member or a temperature compensation member.
次に本発明の実施の形態を詳細に説明する。 Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.
本発明に係る熱可塑性複合材料は、親水性表面を有する平均一次粒子径が1nm以上15nm以下の無機微粒子とポリメタクリル酸メチルを含み、前記無機微粒子の含有量が35vol%以上80vol%以下であることを特徴とする。 The thermoplastic composite material according to the present invention includes inorganic fine particles having a hydrophilic surface and an average primary particle diameter of 1 nm to 15 nm and polymethyl methacrylate, and the content of the inorganic fine particles is 35 vol% to 80 vol%. It is characterized by that.
本発明は、ポリメタクリル酸メチル(以下PMMA)に表面処理のなされていない無機微粒子を溶媒中で高濃度に混合した後に溶媒除去、成形を行うことで非常に小さい線膨張係数を有する成形品を提供するものである。 The present invention provides a molded article having a very small linear expansion coefficient by mixing inorganic fine particles not subjected to surface treatment with polymethyl methacrylate (hereinafter referred to as PMMA) at a high concentration in a solvent and then performing solvent removal and molding. It is to provide.
本発明における無機微粒子は、通常の無機微粒子で、人為的に表面処理のなされていない、親水性表面を有する無機微粒子を用いることを特徴とする。一般に無機材料の表面には水酸基が存在するため、人為的に表面処理を行わない限り、親水性を示す。従来、有機樹脂材料中に無機微粒子を混合する場合、その分散性を向上させるために無機微粒子の表面処理を行うことが一般的である。しかし線膨張係数を大きく低減させるために、本発明の無機微粒子は表面処理がなされておらず親水性表面を有することが特徴である。 The inorganic fine particles in the present invention are normal inorganic fine particles, and are characterized by using inorganic fine particles having a hydrophilic surface that are not artificially surface-treated. In general, since a hydroxyl group exists on the surface of an inorganic material, it exhibits hydrophilicity unless it is artificially surface-treated. Conventionally, when inorganic fine particles are mixed in an organic resin material, surface treatment of the inorganic fine particles is generally performed in order to improve the dispersibility. However, in order to greatly reduce the linear expansion coefficient, the inorganic fine particles of the present invention are characterized in that they are not surface-treated and have a hydrophilic surface.
本発明に用いられる無機微粒子は、特に限定されないが、例えば、シリカ、チタニア、ジルコニア、アルミナ、酸化ニオブ、酸化マグネシウム、酸化ベリリウム、酸化テルル、酸化イットリウム、酸化セリウム、インジウム錫酸化物等の金属酸化物粒子や、金、白金、銀等の金属粒子を使用することができる。 The inorganic fine particles used in the present invention are not particularly limited. For example, metal oxides such as silica, titania, zirconia, alumina, niobium oxide, magnesium oxide, beryllium oxide, tellurium oxide, yttrium oxide, cerium oxide, and indium tin oxide are used. Object particles and metal particles such as gold, platinum, and silver can be used.
本発明に用いられる無機微粒子の粒子径は特に限定されないが、粒子径が大きすぎると低線膨張性が失われる。これは微粒子の表面積が減少し表面相互作用の効果が小さくなることが原因と考えられる。また粒子径が大きくなると光学的な散乱が発生するため、本発明による熱可塑性複合材料を光学系デバイスに用いることができなくなる。粒子径が小さすぎると微粒子の剛直性が小さくなるため、低線膨張性が失われる可能性がある。そのため本発明に用いられる無機微粒子の平均一次粒子径は1nm以上15nm以下、好ましくは5nm以上14nm以下であることが望ましい。 The particle size of the inorganic fine particles used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but if the particle size is too large, low linear expansion is lost. This is presumably because the surface area of the fine particles is reduced and the surface interaction effect is reduced. Further, since the optical scattering occurs when the particle size is increased, the thermoplastic composite material according to the present invention cannot be used for an optical device. If the particle diameter is too small, the rigidity of the fine particles becomes small, and thus the low linear expansion property may be lost. Therefore, the average primary particle diameter of the inorganic fine particles used in the present invention is 1 nm or more and 15 nm or less, preferably 5 nm or more and 14 nm or less.
本発明に用いられる無機微粒子は、例えばアエロジル(日本アエロジル社商品名)、NanoTek(CIKナノテック社商品名)、TECNAN社ナノ粉末パウダー(TECNAN社製)等の市販品を用いることができる。 As the inorganic fine particles used in the present invention, for example, commercially available products such as Aerosil (trade name of Nippon Aerosil Co., Ltd.), NanoTek (trade name of CIK Nanotech Co., Ltd.), Nano powder powder of TECNAN (manufactured by TECNAN Corp.) and the like can be used.
本発明に係る熱可塑性複合材料の製造方法は、親水性表面を有する平均一次粒子径が1nm以上15nm以下の無機微粒子と、溶媒に溶解したポリメタクリル酸メチルとを、前記無機微粒子とポリメタクリル酸メチルの合計に対して前記無機微粒子の含有量が35vol%以上80vol%以下になる様に混合した後、前記溶媒を除去することを特徴とする。 The method for producing a thermoplastic composite material according to the present invention comprises the steps of mixing inorganic fine particles having a hydrophilic surface with an average primary particle diameter of 1 nm to 15 nm and polymethyl methacrylate dissolved in a solvent, the inorganic fine particles and polymethacrylic acid. The solvent is removed after mixing so that the content of the inorganic fine particles is 35 vol% or more and 80 vol% or less with respect to the total of methyl.
PMMAと無機微粒子の混合は、溶媒中にPMMAを溶解させて無機微粒子と混合した後、前記溶媒を除去する方法で行う。まず溶媒中にPMMAを溶解させ、PMMA溶液を作製する。PMMAを溶解する溶媒は、例えばアセトン、トルエン、テトラヒドロフラン、酢酸エチル、酢酸ブチル、キシレン、ジメチルホルムアミドなどが挙げられる。また、最終的に溶媒の除去を行うため、使用する溶媒には、沸点の低いアセトン、酢酸エチル、テトラヒドロフランが好適である。 PMMA and inorganic fine particles are mixed by a method in which PMMA is dissolved in a solvent and mixed with inorganic fine particles, and then the solvent is removed. First, PMMA is dissolved in a solvent to prepare a PMMA solution. Examples of the solvent for dissolving PMMA include acetone, toluene, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, xylene, dimethylformamide and the like. In addition, since the solvent is finally removed, acetone, ethyl acetate, and tetrahydrofuran having a low boiling point are suitable for the solvent to be used.
続いて無機微粒子とPMMA溶液を混合する。無機微粒子は直接PMMA溶液に混合してもよいし、予め溶媒と混合している無機微粒子含有液をPMMAの溶液に混合してもよい。溶媒の量は任意であるため、最終的に除去可能であれば適宜追加しても構わない。PMMA溶液と無機微粒子を混合した後、ホモジナイザーや超音波処理などの分散装置により混合溶液を均一化することが望ましい。 Subsequently, the inorganic fine particles and the PMMA solution are mixed. The inorganic fine particles may be directly mixed with the PMMA solution, or an inorganic fine particle-containing liquid previously mixed with a solvent may be mixed with the PMMA solution. Since the amount of the solvent is arbitrary, it may be appropriately added as long as it can be finally removed. After mixing the PMMA solution and the inorganic fine particles, it is desirable to make the mixed solution uniform by a dispersing device such as a homogenizer or ultrasonic treatment.
次に、混合溶液中の溶媒を除去する。残留溶媒は線膨張係数を悪化させる要因となるため、加熱・真空などにより残留溶媒の量を可能な限り減らす必要がある。具体的には残留溶媒を全体の質量に対して2.5%以下、望ましくは1%以下まで取り除くことが望ましい。 Next, the solvent in the mixed solution is removed. Since the residual solvent causes the linear expansion coefficient to deteriorate, it is necessary to reduce the amount of the residual solvent as much as possible by heating and vacuum. Specifically, it is desirable to remove the residual solvent to 2.5% or less, preferably 1% or less with respect to the total mass.
PMMAと無機微粒子の混合割合は、無機微粒子の含有量が、35vol%(体積パーセント)以上80vol%以下、好ましくは35vol%(体積パーセント)以上50vol%以下が望ましい。本発明では無機微粒子の含有量が35vol%以上になると成形品の線膨張係数が急激に低下する。線膨張係数を低減するためには無機微粒子の含有量を多くすることが有効であるが、含有量が増えるにつれて脆くなり成形性が悪化する。そのため、含有量は80vol%以下であることが好ましい。また同じ含有量においても無機微粒子の分散状態によっては異なる線膨張係数を有することがある。なお本発明における無機微粒子の含有量とは、熱重量分析(TGA)装置によって成形品を800℃まで昇温したときの残存重量パーセントを測定し、体積換算した数値を表す。 The mixing ratio of PMMA and inorganic fine particles is such that the content of the inorganic fine particles is 35 vol% (volume percent) to 80 vol%, preferably 35 vol% (volume percent) to 50 vol%. In the present invention, when the content of the inorganic fine particles is 35 vol% or more, the linear expansion coefficient of the molded product is rapidly reduced. In order to reduce the linear expansion coefficient, it is effective to increase the content of the inorganic fine particles, but as the content increases, it becomes brittle and the moldability deteriorates. Therefore, the content is preferably 80 vol% or less. Even with the same content, it may have a different linear expansion coefficient depending on the dispersion state of the inorganic fine particles. The content of the inorganic fine particles in the present invention represents a numerical value converted into a volume by measuring the residual weight percentage when the molded product is heated to 800 ° C. by a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) apparatus.
本発明に係る成形品は、上記の熱可塑性複合材料を成形してなる成形品であり、前記成形品の20℃から60℃の範囲の線膨張係数が20×10−6/℃以下(但し、負の線膨張係数を含む。)であることを特徴とする。 The molded product according to the present invention is a molded product obtained by molding the thermoplastic composite material, and the linear expansion coefficient of the molded product in the range of 20 ° C. to 60 ° C. is 20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or less (however, , Including a negative linear expansion coefficient).
PMMAと無機微粒子を混合した熱可塑性複合材料は、射出成形やヒートプレス成形など、加熱下において加圧することで任意の形状に成形される。成形時の温度は低すぎると目的の形状を作製できず、高すぎると線膨張係数が高くなる原因となることから、150から300℃の範囲が適当である。成形圧力は特に限定されないが、形状を転写させるために50MPa以上であることが好ましい。 A thermoplastic composite material in which PMMA and inorganic fine particles are mixed is molded into an arbitrary shape by applying pressure under heating, such as injection molding or heat press molding. If the temperature at the time of molding is too low, the desired shape cannot be produced, and if it is too high, the linear expansion coefficient becomes high, so a range of 150 to 300 ° C. is appropriate. The molding pressure is not particularly limited, but is preferably 50 MPa or more in order to transfer the shape.
本発明の成形品は、20℃から60℃の範囲の線膨張係数が20×10−6/℃以下(但し、負の線膨張係数を含む。)であることを特徴とする。本発明の成形品の好ましい線膨張係数は、−20×10−6/℃以上、20×10−6/℃以下、さらに好ましくは−10×10−6/℃以上、10×10−6/℃以下である。−は負の線膨張係数を表す。線膨張係数が20×10−6/℃より大きいと、温度変化による成形品の寸法変化が大きくなり、部材の位置ずれを引き起こすので好ましくない。 The molded product of the present invention is characterized in that the linear expansion coefficient in the range of 20 ° C. to 60 ° C. is 20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or less (including a negative linear expansion coefficient). The linear expansion coefficient of the molded article of the present invention is preferably −20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or higher, 20 × 10 −6 / ° C. or lower, more preferably −10 × 10 −6 / ° C. or higher, 10 × 10 −6 / ° C. It is below ℃. -Represents a negative linear expansion coefficient. When the linear expansion coefficient is larger than 20 × 10 −6 / ° C., the dimensional change of the molded product due to the temperature change becomes large, which causes a positional shift of the member, which is not preferable.
以下、実施例及び比較例を挙げて本発明を更に具体的に説明をする。本発明は何らこれら実施例に限定されるものではない。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to examples and comparative examples. The present invention is not limited to these examples.
