Description
本発明は、電子写真法、静電記録法、静電印刷法等において形成される潜像の現像に用いられる電子写真用トナー等の製造に用いられる二軸押出型混練装置の洗浄方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a cleaning method for a twin-screw extrusion kneader used in the production of an electrophotographic toner used for developing a latent image formed in an electrophotographic method, an electrostatic recording method, an electrostatic printing method or the like.
近年、複写機、プリンタ等をカラー化する傾向が年々増加している。カラートナーの製造方法として、結着樹脂及び着色剤を含むトナー原料を二軸押出型混練装置を用いて溶融混練して製造する方法がある。従来、かかる装置を用いて異なる色のカラートナーを製造する際には、先行のカラートナーの混入を避けるため、洗浄剤を用いて混練装置内を洗浄している。しかしながら、従来の方法では、洗浄剤を用いて洗浄した後、先行の混練物を十分に除去するため、さらに混練装置内壁やスクリューをアセトン等の有機溶剤を用いてふき取り洗浄する必要があり、その作業は人手によって行われるため、必ずしも良好な作業環境とは言えない。 In recent years, the tendency to color copying machines and printers has been increasing year by year. As a method for producing a color toner, there is a method in which a toner raw material containing a binder resin and a colorant is melt-kneaded using a biaxial extrusion kneader. Conventionally, when manufacturing color toners of different colors using such an apparatus, the inside of the kneading apparatus is cleaned using a cleaning agent in order to avoid mixing the preceding color toner. However, in the conventional method, after washing with a cleaning agent, in order to sufficiently remove the preceding kneaded product, it is necessary to wipe and wash the inner wall and screw of the kneading apparatus with an organic solvent such as acetone. Since the work is performed manually, it is not necessarily a good working environment.
特許文献1には、樹脂混練装置に供給する樹脂組成物を高粘度熱可塑性樹脂組成物から低粘度熱可塑性樹脂組成物に切り替えるにあたり、高粘度熱可塑性樹脂組成物の押出後、低粘度熱可塑性樹脂組成物の押出前に、溶融粘度の異なる洗浄剤を、最も高粘度のものから順に、段階的に樹脂混練装置内に供給することにより、樹脂混練装置を洗浄する方法が開示されている。
しかしながら、特許文献1の洗浄方法を結着樹脂及び着色剤を含むトナー原料を溶融混練するための二軸押出型混練装置の洗浄に適用しても、混練装置内壁を十分に洗浄することができず、先行の混練物の混入、ふき取り洗浄による生産性の低下、及び作業環境の悪化を防止することができない。 However, even if the cleaning method of Patent Document 1 is applied to cleaning a twin-screw extrusion kneading apparatus for melting and kneading a toner raw material containing a binder resin and a colorant, the inner wall of the kneading apparatus can be sufficiently cleaned. Therefore, it is impossible to prevent the mixing of the preceding kneaded product, the decrease in productivity due to the wiping cleaning, and the deterioration of the working environment.
本発明の課題は、有機溶剤によるふき取り洗浄等の煩雑な後作業が必要とされず、先行の混練物が混入することのない、カラートナーの製造に用い得る二軸押出型混練装置の洗浄方法を提供することにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning method for a twin-screw extrusion kneading apparatus that can be used for the production of color toners, which does not require a complicated post-operation such as wiping and cleaning with an organic solvent, and does not contain the preceding kneaded product. Is to provide.
本発明は、結着樹脂及び着色剤を含むトナー原料を溶融混練するための二軸押出型混練装置の洗浄方法であって、180℃における貯蔵弾性率が1.0×104〜4.0×104Paである洗浄樹脂組成物を用いて混練装置内を洗浄する第1洗浄工程、及び第1洗浄工程後、第1洗浄工程で用いた洗浄樹脂組成物より貯蔵弾性率の高い洗浄樹脂組成物を用いて混練装置内を洗浄する第2洗浄工程を含む、二軸押出型混練装置の洗浄方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a cleaning method for a twin screw extrusion kneader for melt kneading a toner material containing a binder resin and a colorant, and the storage elastic modulus at 180 ° C. is 1.0 × 10 4 to 4.0 × 10 4 Pa. A cleaning resin composition having a higher storage elastic modulus than the cleaning resin composition used in the first cleaning step after the first cleaning step and the first cleaning step of cleaning the inside of the kneading apparatus using the cleaning resin composition The present invention relates to a cleaning method for a twin-screw extrusion kneader including a second cleaning step for cleaning the inside of the kneader.
本発明の洗浄方法により、有機溶剤によるふき取り洗浄等の煩雑な後作業を行うことなく、二軸押出型混練装置から先行の混練物を簡便に除去することができる。本発明の方法により洗浄した二軸押出型混練装置は、先行の混練物の混入がトナーの色調に大きな影響を与えるため、より高い洗浄効果が求められるカラートナーの製造に好適に用いることができる。 According to the cleaning method of the present invention, the preceding kneaded product can be easily removed from the twin-screw extrusion kneader without performing complicated post-operation such as wiping cleaning with an organic solvent. The twin-screw extrusion kneading apparatus cleaned by the method of the present invention can be suitably used for the production of color toners that require a higher cleaning effect because the mixing of the previous kneaded product has a great influence on the color tone of the toner. .
本発明は、結着樹脂及び着色剤を含むトナー原料を溶融混練した二軸押出型混練装置を洗浄する際に、粘度の異なる2種の洗浄樹脂組成物を、特定の順序で用いる点に大きな特徴を有する。本発明では、後述する、180℃における貯蔵弾性率が、1.0×104〜4.0×104Paである洗浄樹脂組成物(以下、「低粘度洗浄樹脂組成物」ともいう)を用いた第1洗浄工程により混練装置内壁及びスクリュー全体を洗浄することができ、第1洗浄工程で用いる洗浄樹脂組成物より貯蔵弾性率の高い洗浄樹脂組成物(以下、「高粘度洗浄樹脂組成物」ともいう)を用いた第2洗浄工程により高粘度洗浄樹脂組成物の押出しとともに混練装置内壁やスクリューに融着した混練物を完全に除去することができる。本発明の方法により、高い洗浄効果が得られる理由は明らかではないが、低粘度洗浄樹脂組成物を用いることにより、混練装置内壁の細部まで洗浄樹脂組成物が行き渡って洗浄され、より強固に融着しているスクリュー部については、高粘度洗浄樹脂組成物を用いた第2洗浄工程で強いシェアがかかり、混練装置内の洗浄効率がさらに向上すると推定される。 The present invention is significant in that two types of cleaning resin compositions having different viscosities are used in a specific order when cleaning a twin-screw extrusion kneading apparatus in which a toner raw material containing a binder resin and a colorant is melt-kneaded. Has characteristics. In the present invention, a first cleaning resin composition (hereinafter also referred to as “low viscosity cleaning resin composition”) having a storage elastic modulus at 180 ° C. of 1.0 × 10 4 to 4.0 × 10 4 Pa, which will be described later, is used. The inner wall of the kneading apparatus and the entire screw can be washed by the washing step, and the washing resin composition has a higher storage elastic modulus than the washing resin composition used in the first washing step (hereinafter also referred to as “high viscosity washing resin composition”). By the second washing step using the kneaded product, the kneaded product fused to the inner wall of the kneading apparatus and the screw can be completely removed together with the extrusion of the high viscosity washing resin composition. The reason why a high cleaning effect can be obtained by the method of the present invention is not clear, but by using a low-viscosity cleaning resin composition, the cleaning resin composition is spread and cleaned to the details of the inner wall of the kneading apparatus, and more firmly melted. About the screw | thread part to which it has worn, it is estimated that a strong share starts in the 2nd washing | cleaning process using a high-viscosity washing resin composition, and the washing | cleaning efficiency in a kneading apparatus further improves.
第1洗浄工程は、180℃における貯蔵弾性率が1.0×104〜4.0×104Paである低粘度洗浄樹脂組成物を用いて混練装置内を洗浄する工程である。 The first washing step is a step of washing the inside kneading apparatus with a low viscosity cleaning resin composition a storage modulus at 180 ° C. is at 1.0 × 10 4 ~4.0 × 10 4 Pa.

Manufactured, storage elastic modulus at 180 ° C .: 2.2 × 10 4 Pa) 5 kg was supplied to the extruder and extruded (first washing step).
次に、押出機の温度とスクリューの回転数の設定はそのままで、高粘度洗浄樹脂組成物「プラクレール(PLACLAIRE)」(東京インキ社製、180℃での貯蔵弾性率:4.8×104Pa)5kgを押出機に供給し、押出した(第2洗浄工程)。 Next, the setting of the temperature of the extruder and the number of rotations of the screw is left as they are, and the high viscosity cleaning resin composition “PLACLAIRE” (manufactured by Tokyo Ink Co., Ltd., storage elastic modulus at 180 ° C .: 4.8 × 10 4 Pa ) 5 kg was supplied to the extruder and extruded (second washing step).

続いて、押出機の温度を100℃、スクリューの回転数を100r/minに設定を変更し、イエロートナー原料混合物40kgを供給して、溶融混練した。 Subsequently, the setting of the extruder temperature was changed to 100 ° C. and the rotation speed of the screw was changed to 100 r / min, and 40 kg of the yellow toner raw material mixture was supplied and melt-kneaded.
得られた溶融混練物中に含まれる銅の含有量を蛍光X線分析装置「ZSX100e」(リガク社製)により測定した。溶融混練物中の銅はシアントナー原料混合物にシアン顔料として用いられた銅フタロシアニンに由来するものであり、銅の含有量が多いほど、洗浄後も多量のシアントナー原料混合物が残存していることを示す。以下に測定条件を示す。 The content of copper contained in the obtained melt-kneaded product was measured with a fluorescent X-ray analyzer “ZSX100e” (manufactured by Rigaku Corporation). Copper in the melt-kneaded material is derived from copper phthalocyanine used as a cyan pigment in the cyan toner raw material mixture. The higher the copper content, the more cyan toner raw material mixture remains after washing. Indicates. The measurement conditions are shown below.

実施例2〜4及び比較例1、2
シアントナー原料混合物の溶融混練と、押出機内の乾拭きとの間に、表1に示す洗浄樹脂組成物を使用した洗浄工程を行った以外は、実施例1と同様にして、二軸押出機を洗浄し、イエロートナー原料混合物の溶融混練物中の銅の含有量を測定した。結果を表1に示す。
Examples 2 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2
In the same manner as in Example 1, except that a cleaning process using the cleaning resin composition shown in Table 1 was performed between the melt kneading of the cyan toner raw material mixture and the dry wiping in the extruder, a twin screw extruder was used. After washing, the content of copper in the melt-kneaded mixture of the yellow toner raw material mixture was measured. The results are shown in Table 1.
以上の結果より、実施例1〜4ではいずれも、先行の溶融混練物が完全に除去されており、極めて高い洗浄効果が得られていることが分かる。これに対し、高粘度洗浄樹脂組成物の後に低粘度洗浄樹脂組成物を使用した比較例1、低粘度洗浄樹脂組成物のみを使用した比較例2では、先行の溶融混練物が不完全であることが分かる。 From the above results, it can be seen that in Examples 1 to 4, the previous melt-kneaded product was completely removed, and an extremely high cleaning effect was obtained. In contrast, in Comparative Example 1 in which the low-viscosity cleaning resin composition is used after the high-viscosity cleaning resin composition and in Comparative Example 2 in which only the low-viscosity cleaning resin composition is used, the preceding melt-kneaded product is incomplete. I understand that.
本発明の方法により洗浄する二軸押出機は、電子写真法、静電記録法、静電印刷法等において形成される潜像の現像等に用いられるトナーの製造に用いられるものである。 The twin-screw extruder that is cleaned by the method of the present invention is used for the production of toner used for developing latent images formed in electrophotography, electrostatic recording, electrostatic printing, and the like.
