A conventionally known method for solving this interlayer problem is to blend it with a resin that has better fluidity (good moldability). For example, it is blended with polyethylene phthalate, polycarbonate, etc. and molded. However, the aforementioned terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, parahydroxybenzoic acid, 4.4'
- When mixing, granulating, and molding fully aromatic polyester μ obtained from dihydroxydiphenyl etc. with polyethylene terephthalate or polycarbonate, if each step is performed in the temperature range where fully aromatic polyester is uniform, the temperature However, polyethylene terephthalate and l-licarbonate, which have poor thermal stability, are easily thermally decomposed, and if these resins are treated in a temperature range where they can be stabilized and homogenized, the temperature is insufficient for the flow of fully aromatic polyester, so the composition The entire system is not a homogeneous dispersion. Although it is possible to lengthen the residence time of the resin in each process such as mixing, granulation, and molding in order to homogenize the entire system, it is far from uniformly dispersed, and it takes a lot of time to achieve that state. That's not realistic.

In view of the current situation, the present inventors have conducted extensive studies to improve the moldability of wholly aromatic polyester without the deterioration of physical properties or inconveniences caused by poor dispersion that occur in conventional blending methods. As a result, by making aromatic polysulfone exist in a certain proportion in the polymerization reaction system and carrying out the polymerization using a bulk polymerization method in which substantially no solvent is present, the properties of fully aromatic polyester can be improved. It has been found that the moldability of wholly aromatic polyester can be improved without reducing its excellent performance.

Terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid and parahydroxyamino acid
In the case of fully aromatic polyesters produced from acids and 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl μ, etc., no solvent has been found to date that can dissolve them, so solution polymerization is difficult to employ, and suspension polymerization is difficult. Legally, high boiling point solvents such as hydrogenated terphenyl, diphenyl ether, and diphenyl mixtures are used, but these solvents can be removed, recovered,
It is economically disadvantageous in that the steps such as cleaning the remer are complicated and the amount of polymer produced per unit batch is small. Bulk polymerization is the most economical polymerization method, but it has not been widely applied to the production of aromatic polyesters.The reason is that aromatic polyesters are This is because polyester has a high melting point and requires high temperatures to maintain its molten state, resulting in significant color deterioration of the polymer, which reduces its commercial value. If this problem of color deterioration can be solved, it will have great industrial significance as a process that can satisfy primer quality and economical efficiency.

A more preferable bulk polymerization method is to proceed with the polymerization by constantly applying a shearing force to the polymer produced by polymerization at the polymerization temperature so that the polymer does not solidify, and to maintain the polymer in a solid polydisperse state without solidifying the polymer. This is a method in which polymerization is carried out until substantially all of the polymer becomes a solid phase, and the maximum temperature that can be used depends in part on the boiling point and decomposition point of the monomer, oligomer, or polymer used, but this temperature limit is as follows: The condensation is initially carried out at a relatively low temperature and the temperature is increased as the condensation progresses.

Thereafter, the acetic acid produced as a result of the reaction was distilled off while the temperature was raised, and the temperature was raised to 330°C under high shear. Polymerization was further continued for 2 hours with strong stirring, and then gradually cooled down to 200° C., and strong stirring was continued, after which the polymerized product was taken out of the tank.

The recovered amount was 1570 f (>93.1% of the theoretical amount). After pulverizing the ξ, it was transferred to an aluminum rotary oven and heated at 320°C under a nitrogen stream while rotating the entire system and thoroughly stirring the powder. The temperature was gradually increased over 6 hours until the temperature reached 320°C for 3 hours, and then the powder was cooled and taken out at 200°C.

The temperature was gradually raised to 0°C over 6 hours, maintained at this temperature for 2 hours, and then cooled to 200°C and the powder was taken out. This glimmer was granulated and injection molded in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 1. The molding temperature range is almost the same as Comparative Example 2 and narrower than Example 1. Also, the molded product is uneven and burns can be seen when molded at high temperatures. Moreover, the physical property values are also lower than those of Example 1.

Example 2 In the same manner as in Example 1, polyether sulfone used in Example 1 was used to obtain final product polymer pellets. Dumbbell-shaped test pieces, Izot impact strength test pieces, sea urchin strength test pieces, and heat distortion temperature measurement test pieces were injection molded using various molds, and the physical properties of each were measured. The results are shown in Table 2. For comparison, polyether sulfone is 0.5

It can be seen that polyether sulfone improves the appearance of the molded product and also significantly improves various physical properties, especially the strength of the weld area. Furthermore, the dependence of physical properties on molding temperature is also reduced. If the final product of polyether sulfone is 50 Wt* of Rimer, the appearance will be good, but the physical properties will be lower overall.
