DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a heat-resistant and flame-retardant crosslinked polypropylene blend.

発明の背景 一般に、架橋ポリプロピレンは、ポリエチレンの架橋物
に比較して、高度の耐熱性や優れた機械的特性を具備し
ているので、種々の用途に期待がもたれている。
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In general, crosslinked polypropylene has higher heat resistance and superior mechanical properties than crosslinked polyethylene, so it is expected to be used in a variety of applications.

ポリプロピレンを、電子線照射や化学的に架橋処理する

程支障となるものではない。
When polypropylene is subjected to electron beam irradiation or chemical crosslinking treatment, deterioration proceeds along with the crosslinking reaction due to its molecular structure, but in the case of polypropylene alone, the deterioration does not pose much of a problem in practice.

For example, the irradiation dose is 0.5 to 10 megarats (Mrad).
The gel fraction (measurement conditions: 120°C,
xylene) immersed for 24 hours, the crosslinked part gels and remains, so if this gel fraction (corresponding to the approximate degree of crosslinking) is 30 to 40%, the initial elongation is 300%. A satisfactory result of ~400% can be obtained. However, this product was tested in a combustion test (U
When a flame retardant is added in an amount sufficient to pass the L vertical combustion test (VW-1) and cross-linked, the elongation decreases to less than 100%, and when the elongation is further heated, the elongation rate further decreases and polypropylene There is a technical problem that should be improved, that is, it becomes impractical as a molded product.

Such an object of the present invention is to combine polypropylene with a flame retardant and a specific thermoplastic elastomer, namely styrene-ethylene-
A thermoplastic elastomer (hereinafter referred to as "SEB") whose main component is a block copolymer with a butylene-styrene structure
This is achieved by adding a compound called "S").

For example, SJ310 manufactured by Mitsui Petrochemicals, SJ310 manufactured by Showa Denko, Sumitomonobren manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical, Mitsubishi Noblen manufactured by Mitsubishi Yuka, etc. can be mentioned. These polypropylenes contain 90 wt% or more of isotactic polypropylene. In the present invention, SEBS is particularly selected from thermoplastic elastomers,
The reason for adding this is as follows.

That is, when various thermoplastic elastomers are added to polypropylene in addition to flame retardants, the elongation after crosslinking increases by 300 to 500%.
You can get what you want. However, these crosslinked products were heat treated at 180°C for 7 days (150°C in the UL heat resistance test).
If the thermoplastic elastomer added has a double bond in its molecular chain or has a relatively low softening temperature, the residual elongation rate will drop to 0 to 30%. This is because, surprisingly, it has been found that in the case of SEBS, a residual elongation rate of 70% or more can be obtained. The SEBS used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but includes, for example, Kraton Gl652 (trade name, manufactured by Siel Kagaku Co., Ltd.).

The blending ratio of each of these compositions is preferably 60 to 120 parts by weight of the flame retardant and 20 to 50 parts by weight of SEBS to 50 to 80 parts by weight of polypropylene. That is, if the flame retardant is less than 60 parts by weight, sufficient flame retardancy cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 120 parts by weight, other properties,
This is because, for example, elongation is significantly reduced. On the other hand, S
In the case of EBS, if it is less than 20 parts by weight, the residual elongation cannot be increased to 70% or more, and even if it exceeds 50 parts by weight, no significant improvement in the residual elongation can be expected. still,
In the present invention, in addition to the above-mentioned compositions, stabilizers such as antioxidants and copper damage inhibitors, crosslinking aids, and the like may be added as necessary.

That is, it is possible to obtain a mixture that not only has sufficient flame retardancy to pass VW-1 but also has a high degree of heat resistance with a usable temperature of 150°C. On the other hand, it can be seen that when polypropylene alone is used, there is almost no elongation, and when ethylene-α-olefin copolymer or isobrene rubber is added, the residual elongation after the heat treatment test is significantly reduced. Effects and Applications of the Invention As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, polypropylene is crosslinked by adding SEBS in addition to a flame retardant, so it has sufficient heat retardance and at the same time has a high degree of heat resistance. , it is possible to obtain a mixture for heat-resistant and heat-retardant crosslinked products based on polypropylene having even more excellent mechanical properties.
