Description

本発明は、有機溶剤に容易に溶解させることができるポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子に関する。 The present invention relates to polyvinyl acetal resin particles that can be easily dissolved in an organic solvent.

ポリビニルブチラール樹脂等のポリビニルアセタール樹脂は、強靱性、造膜性、粒子等の分散性、塗布面への接着性等に優れていることから、様々な用途で使用されている。
ポリビニルアセタール樹脂の用途の1つとしては、例えば、バインダー樹脂としてポリビニルブチラール樹脂等のポリビニルアセタール樹脂が用いたスラリー組成物や導電ペーストが開示されている。
Polyvinyl acetal resins such as polyvinyl butyral resin are used in various applications because they are excellent in toughness, film-forming property, dispersibility of particles and the like, and adhesiveness to a coated surface.
As one of the uses of the polyvinyl acetal resin, for example, a slurry composition or a conductive paste in which a polyvinyl acetal resin such as polyvinyl butyral resin is used as a binder resin is disclosed.

これらの用途に用いられるポリビニルアセタール樹脂は、一般にメチルエチルケトン、トルエン、アルコール、これらの混合物等の有機溶剤に溶解された溶液として用いられる。
その際、溶剤への溶解が早いと作業性が向上する。ポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子の表面積を上げると、溶剤との接触面積が上るために溶解性が向上すると思われるが、実際には溶剤の液面に乗ることになり、溶剤への溶解速度は遅い。
また、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂が有機溶剤に対する溶解性に劣るものであると、有機溶剤に溶解させた際に微量の未溶解物が生じ、粒子の分散性が低下する。
The polyvinyl acetal resin used for these applications is generally used as a solution dissolved in an organic solvent such as methyl ethyl ketone, toluene, alcohol, and a mixture thereof.
At that time, if the dissolution in the solvent is quick, the workability is improved. Increasing the surface area of the polyvinyl acetal resin particles seems to improve the solubility because the contact area with the solvent increases, but in reality, it gets on the liquid surface of the solvent, and the dissolution rate in the solvent is slow.
Further, if the polyvinyl acetal resin is inferior in solubility in an organic solvent, a small amount of undissolved substance is generated when the polyvinyl acetal resin is dissolved in the organic solvent, and the dispersibility of the particles is lowered.

特許文献1には、最小構成粒子(1次粒子)が平均粒径5μm以下のポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子が開示されている。
また、特許文献2には、重合度が500以上のポリビニルアセタール樹脂からなり、60メッシュの篩を通過する粒子の含有割合が20重量%以下、かさ比重が0.20以下、かつ、平均粒子径が100〜500μmであるポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子が開示されている。
Patent Document 1 discloses polyvinyl acetal resin particles having an average particle size of 5 μm or less as the minimum constituent particles (primary particles).
Further, Patent Document 2 describes a polyvinyl acetal resin having a degree of polymerization of 500 or more, a content ratio of particles passing through a 60-mesh sieve of 20% by weight or less, a bulk specific gravity of 0.20 or less, and an average particle diameter. Polyvinyl acetal resin particles having a size of 100 to 500 μm are disclosed.

しかしながら、特許文献1及び2に開示されているポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子でも、実際には有機溶剤に対する溶解性が不充分なものとなっており、特に樹脂添加量が多い場合の溶解性が低いものとなっている。また、平均粒子径を小さくするのみでは、添加時に粒子が浮きやすく、かつ、溶解途中に粒子の溶剤含浸不良が生じやすく、樹脂成分の均一性が低下することがある。 However, even the polyvinyl acetal resin particles disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2 actually have insufficient solubility in an organic solvent, and the solubility is low especially when the amount of resin added is large. It has become. Further, if only the average particle size is reduced, the particles are likely to float at the time of addition, and the solvent impregnation of the particles is likely to occur during dissolution, which may reduce the uniformity of the resin component.

本発明は、溶解途中に粒子の溶剤含浸不良が生じにくく、添加量が多い場合でも有機溶剤に容易に溶解させることができ、樹脂成分の均一性に優れるポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子を提供することを目的とする。 It is an object of the present invention to provide polyvinyl acetal resin particles which are less likely to cause solvent impregnation defects of particles during dissolution, can be easily dissolved in an organic solvent even when the amount of addition is large, and have excellent uniformity of resin components.

上記アセタール工程におけるポリビニルアルコール溶液のポリビニルアルコール含有量 は、1.0〜7.0質量%であることが好ましい。上記範囲内とすることで、所定の重合度、空隙率、細孔半径7.5〜0.075μmの空隙比率、及び、比表面積を有する本発明のポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子を好適に作製することができる。同様の観点から、上記ポリビニルアルコール含有量は、より好ましい下限が2.0質量%、より好ましい上限が6.0質量%である。なお、上記ポリビニルアルコール樹脂の含有量は、使用するポリビニルアルコール樹脂の重合度を考慮して決定することができる。 The polyvinyl alcohol content of the polyvinyl alcohol solution in the acetal step is preferably 1.0 to 7.0% by mass.

Further, the void ratio having a pore radius of 7.5 to 1.0 μm means the ratio of the void volume having a pore radius of 7.5 to 1.0 μm to the void volume having a pore radius of 7.5 to 0.0038 μm.

(2)粒子径(D10、D50、D90)
得られたポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子について、粒子径(D10、D50、D90)を、レーザー回折式粒子径分布測定装置(Mastersizer 3000)を用いて測定した。また、測定したD10、D50、D90から粒度分布ε[(D90−D10)/D50]を算出した。
(2) Particle size (D10, D50, D90)
The particle diameters (D10, D50, D90) of the obtained polyvinyl acetal resin particles were measured using a laser diffraction type particle size distribution measuring device (Mastersizer 3000). Further, the particle size distribution ε [(D90-D10) / D50] was calculated from the measured D10, D50, and D90.

(3)溶解性
500mLのビーカーに有機溶剤としてエタノールとトルエンとの混合溶剤(重量比1:1)192gを入れ、温度を25℃に保ち、2枚の攪拌翼を用い、回転数200rpmで攪拌しながら、得られたポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子48.0g(濃度20重量%)を添加し、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子を溶解させた。目視で観察し、得られたポリビニルアセタール樹脂粒子を添加してから不溶解樹脂が無くなるまでの溶解時間を測定した。同様に、濃度10重量%、濃度5重量%、濃度3重量%、濃度2重量%の場合についても溶解時間を測定した。なお、「不可」は600分経過後も溶解しなかったか、有機溶剤に溶かした際の粘度が5000mPa・s以上であったことを意味する。
粘度5000mPa・s以上である場合は、ワイセンベルク効果により、攪拌軸に溶液が巻き付き同一の評価が出来ない。
更に、最も低濃度での溶解時間に対する溶解時間の倍数(溶解時間倍数)を、最も低濃度の場合以外の各濃度について算出し、表に示した。なお、表中の「−」は溶解時間倍数が算出出来なかったことを意味する。
(3) Put 192 g of a mixed solvent of ethanol and toluene (weight ratio 1: 1) as an organic solvent in a 500 mL beaker, keep the temperature at 25 ° C, and stir at a rotation speed of 200 rpm using two stirring blades. While doing so, 48.0 g (concentration 20% by weight) of the obtained polyvinyl acetal resin particles were added to dissolve the polyvinyl acetal resin particles. By observing visually, the dissolution time from the addition of the obtained polyvinyl acetal resin particles to the disappearance of the insoluble resin was measured. Similarly, the dissolution time was measured in the cases of concentration 10% by weight, concentration 5% by weight, concentration 3% by weight, and concentration 2% by weight. In addition, "impossible" means that it did not dissolve even after 600 minutes had passed, or that the viscosity when dissolved in an organic solvent was 5000 mPa · s or more.
When the viscosity is 5000 mPa · s or more, the solution wraps around the stirring shaft due to the Weissenberg effect, and the same evaluation cannot be performed.
Furthermore, multiples of the dissolution time with respect to the dissolution time at the lowest concentration (dissolution time multiple) were calculated for each concentration other than the case of the lowest concentration and are shown in the table. In addition, "-" in the table means that the dissolution time multiple could not be calculated.
