Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a long product by continuous extrusion and to reduce the danger of ignition or explosion by forming a fine powder of polytetrafluoroethylene and adding a fluorine type surfactant to an aq. extrusion aid. CONSTITUTION:Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is formed into a fine powder and a fluorine type surfactant is added to an aq. extrusion aid. PTFE is a tetrafluoroethylene homopolymer, a copolymer with other copolymerizable monomer or a mixture of them. PTFE and the aq. extrusion aid are pref. added to an extrusion compsn. in an amt. of 70wt.% or more. In the extrusion compsn., the aq. extrusion aid is added in an amt. of 25-30 pts.wt. per 100 pts.wt. of the PTFE fine powder. (When the addition amt. of the aq. extrusion aid is out of this range, moldability becomes easy to deteriorate because of the lowering in flowability caused by lubrication deficiency and the excessive aq. extrusion aid is exuded under pressure during molding or pressure becomes insufficient and sufficient plastic deformation is hard to generate.

However, in the conventional PTFE molding method, the compound which is made into a paste by adding the extrusion aid to PTFE is preformed into a cylindrical shape in advance, and the extrusion aid is prevented from volatilizing. In this method, the resulting billet is put into an extruder and extruded under a pressurized state by ram extrusion or the like.However, in this method, the raw material is intermittently supplied to the extruder. Therefore, it is difficult to obtain a long product, and the productivity is poor because the process is a discontinuous process. Furthermore, since an organic solvent such as naphtha or petroleum hydrocarbon is applied as the extrusion aid of PTFE and remains in the extruded product, the removal process by heating or extraction, and the subsequent firing process. In addition to the danger of ignition and explosion, there is a problem that explosion-proof measures and exhaust measures are required in manufacturing equipment.

The amount of the organic solvent added is preferably 1 to 40% by weight, more preferably the amount of the water-based extrusion aid. It is 5 to 20% by weight. If the amount of the organic solvent is small, the effect of addition is small, and if it is too large, the noncombustibility of the water-based extrusion aid is likely to be impaired.

The composition for extrusion preferably comprises 20 to 5 water-based extrusion aids per 100 parts by weight of PTFE fine powder.
0 parts by weight, more preferably 25 to 35 parts by weight is added.
If the amount added is outside this range, not only the moldability tends to deteriorate due to poor fluidity due to poor wetting, but also excessive water-based auxiliaries ooze out during pressurization during molding, or the pressure becomes insufficient, resulting in sufficient plasticity. Deformation is unlikely to occur. When adding a water-based extrusion aid to PTFE to obtain a homogeneous mixture,
It is desirable not to apply mechanical shearing forces. PT
When a shearing force is applied to the FE, the fiberization progresses, so that the extrusion pressure is increased and the moldability is likely to deteriorate. Therefore, it is desirable that the mixing is carried out slowly with a tumbler shaker mixer or the like. In addition, before adding the filler, P
A method in which TFE powder and a filler are sufficiently stirred, a method in which PTFE is added after emulsion polymerization to obtain a homogeneous mixture, and the like can be applied.

Next, the homogeneous mixture is continuously extruded by a screw extruder. As the screw extruder, a generally used single-screw or multi-screw extruder can be applied. The screw shape is not particularly limited, and a mixing type screw or the like having a more effective mixing / kneading effect can be applied, but it is preferable to use a general full flight screw. What is important in screw extrusion is the compression ratio and effective length of the screw, and the clearance between the screw crest and the cylinder wall. In the present invention, the screw compression ratio is 1.0 to 4.0, and the effective length is 20 to 3
It is more preferable that the gap is 0 and the gap is in the range of 0.05 to 5.0 mm in terms of moldability, shape retention of the molded product, and the like. The extruder cylinder may be heated in consideration of the extrudability of the composition, but when heated, it is preferably 90 ° C. or lower,
More preferably, it is 70 ° C. or lower. When the extrusion temperature is 90 ° C or higher, the separation of the water-based extrusion aid in the composition becomes remarkable,
Since the plasticizing effect disappears, the extrusion pressure rises and the extrudability tends to deteriorate.

It can be carried out by a method of heating and drying at 50 ° C., or a method of immersing in a water-based medium or the like to extract the fluorosurfactant and then heating and drying.

Further, in the present invention, in particular, extruded products such as sheets, films and tapes may be stretched if necessary,
It may be fired subsequently. The stretching may be uniaxial or biaxial, and known methods such as a rolling method, a sequential stretching method, a simultaneous biaxial stretching method, and a method combining these may be employed. Above all, a method of sequentially biaxially stretching after treatment with a rolling roll is more preferable because it can make the thin film uniform. The stretching is preferably performed under heating and the temperature is 30 to 250.
It is in the range of ° C. When firing, it is usually 350-40
It is 0 ° C., and the firing time can be appropriately set in consideration of the physical properties of the molded product.
