Abstract
An adapted thermoplastic resin having a thermoplastic resin body and a coating on the thermoplastic resin body is disclosed. The coating consists essentially of an additive component and a polymer component. The polymer component of the coating has an initial temperature for its melt processing range below the initial temperature for the melt processing range of the thermoplastic resin body. The adapted thermoplastic resins of the invention can be produced more efficiently than conventionally adapted thermoplastic resins, while the thermoplastic resins adapted from the invention can be used in the same methods as conventional materials to produce many useful articles.
Description
IMPROVED PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF RESINS
ADAPTED THERMOPLASTICS
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to thermoplastic color resins which are useful in the molding articles. In particular, the invention relates to adapted thermoplastic resins having a thermoplastic or resin-based resin body covered with a layer of a lower melt thermoplastic coating composition. The composition of the re-coverings consists essentially of a polymeric component - and at least one additive, preferably a dye or pigment, and particularly preferably an additive not present in the composition of the body of the plasticplastic resin. In a preferred embodiment, the coating contains an additive, a pigment that is dispersed in the polymer component. The adapted thermoplastic resin is formed into an article by melting and mixing together with the body of the thermoplastic resin and the thermoplastic coating compositions and extruding, molding or otherwise molding the mixture in the article.
Background and Compendium of the Invention
Thermoplastic resins are formed "in many types of articles, for example by extrusion, thermoforming, and compression molding processes.The plasticplastic resins are usually composed and manufactured as granules or powders that can be easily shipped and can be handled easily and conveniently during the formation of the desired articles or stored for further processing.The most economical is to manufacture the thermoplastic resins as granules in a continuous extrusion process in which the granules are compounded to meet the requirements of many uses.
However, it is often the case that a thermoplastic resin must be formulated or adapted especially for a particular use or application, such as the color molding process, for example including special additives for that use, such as pigments to achieve a particular color or a stabilizer package that meets the requirements for a particular use. In particular, the thermoplastic resins can be adapted to influence certain pigments and / or dyes. It is often desirable that the manufactured article have a particular color. A particular color can, for example, improve the aesthetic appearance of the article or even, it can serve to help identify a particular brand or manufacturer.
However, the adaptation of the color or additive package of the platinum resin can present problems. While the general-purpose thermoplastic resin or resin base can be produced by means of continuous extrusion operations, colored thermoplastic resins or dealplastic resins with special additive packages are typically required in much smaller quantities which are relatively expensive to produce . Manufacturing, especially post - production cleaning is an extremely intensive task. The equipment for processing (such as mixers, feeders, extruders and granulation equipment) must be thoroughly cleaned after each particular color or blend adapted to avoid contamination of the thermoplastic resins that will occur later in the equipment. The cleaning process requires significant time in which the equipment is not used during which no material is manufactured, adding manufacturing costs to the specialized product.
Alternatively, the colored articles have been produced by dry blending the uncolored thermoplastic resin with a colored concentrate
(also known as color masterbatch) which is known in the art as a "salt and pepper mixture". The thermoplastic resin and the color concentrate used for these mixtures are typically pieces or granules of similar size. The color concentrate is generally a minor sanctity by weight of the mixture, typically only up to about 5% by weight, and with much lower frequency.
Then the mixture of salt and pepper is introduced to the molding or forming equipment used to produce the final article. The melting mixture of the uncolored resin and the solder solution should be carried in the molding or forming equipment. However, this process may result in color variations from piece to piece, or even in areas within the same piece, due to incomplete mixing, particularly for the low mixing proportions of the color concentrate. The segregation of particular additives during packing and transportation is also experienced with dry blends and contributes to the lack of homogeneity in the final formed articles.
In a method related to the use of the salt and pepper mixture, the lacquers and liquid colors can be introduced into the mouth of an injection molding extruder or other forming equipment. This method also has a number of disadvantages, the manufacturer may require sophisticated measuring equipment in order to produce uniform coloration. Secondly, this method is similar to the salt and pepper method in that the coloring material and the uncolored resin are introduced essentially separately, relying on a total mixing in the forming equipment before the article It is finally formed. It can be an insomplete mezslado and several colors.
Gose and collaborate-odors in U.S. Patent No. 5, 443, 910 and related patents describe the scaling of certain processing, stabilization or other functional polymer additives to polymeric particles by spraying the particles with an aqueous emulsion of the polymer additive. The emulsion includes an emulsifier (acidic funsional), surfactant, base, additive and water. However, this method of adapting thermoplastic resins has several disadvantages. First, the inclusion of a base compound in the applied material can cause unwanted coloration or changes in colors. For example, Gose et al. Point out problems when using potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide. The dessoloración that can result from the amines in certain systems is also very conosida. Second, the water of the emulsion or the combination of water and the base presents problems for the hydrophilic resins. In addition, it may be desirable in some instances to exclude the surfactants from the thermoplastic resin. Finally, the application method of the emulsion has disadvantages that are inherent in the process, for example, that the applied emulsion layer must be dry and the emulsion must be stored and used under conditions that are carefully maintained to avoid destabilization and separation.
Sharma, in U.S. Patent No. 5,300,256 and related patents, also discloses the application of an additive to a polymeric particle of an aqueous medium. Sharma discusses the handling or storage problems of Gose and provides a two-phase solid additive system that can be dispersed in water just before application. The polymer additives used by Sharma must be melted at a temperature not higher than 100 ° C, and may include hydrophilic polymers such as low molecular weight poly-olefins with carboxylic moieties. The additives again contain water and are further diluted with water and applied in an aqueous emulsion, still with many of the problems mentioned above.
It is also possible to prepare the color concentrates by means of a mixing method together with a pigment mixture, low-weight silicates and thermoplastic polyolefin granules. The pigment and wax are included at relatively high levels, for example, about 40% by weight of the mixture. The wax dispersed in the pigment forms a layer on the granules of the polymer. This masterbatch is mixed with unmodified base polylefins to form a "salt and pepper" mixture. The masterbatch requires a high charge of pigment and dispersed wax in order to achieve the loading of the desired final pigment in the salt and pepper mixture. These mixtures containing the masterbatch suffer from the same problems mentioned above. further, the relatively thick layer of wax on the granules is undesirable because these coarse coatings have to be easily peeled off and detached, which could result in a segregation and inhomogeneity in the molded articles, as well as the problems of dust in the production.
Thus, it would be desirable to provide adapted thermoplastic resins that overcome the disadvantages of those produced by the methods described above.
We have now discovered a new method for preparing adapted thermoplastic resins in which the parts, typically the thermoplastic resin granules are covered with a layer consisting essentially of a polymer component and an additive component. The polymer component of the layer has a melting point, softening point, or glass transition temperature that is less than the melting point, softening point or glass transition temperature of the body of the thermoplastic resin. The aforementioned melting point, the softening point or glass transition temperature (or other temperature or temperature range where the J. resins begin to soften or flow) of a particular resin or resin composition may be referred to as the temperature of the beginning of the fusion processing range. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the term "principle temperature for the range of the melt processing" is used herein for convenience and that it can be referred to either at a different single temperature or at a range of temperatures. In references to the differences between the ranges, one can use the difference of the highest, lowest or average temperature within a range; the term of preference employs the most significant separation of temperature in the application under consideration.
In a preferred embodiment, the layer is a color concentrate consisting essentially of a psimeric component and one or more pigments, optionally with other additives. In a process for producing the thermoplastic resins adapted from the invention, the body or piece of thermoplastic resin is brought into contaste with the re-coating or sapa at a temperature at which the coating composition melts. The pieces or coated resin granules are cooled to solidify the coating in a layer on the body of the thermoplastic resin.

These conductive materials can be incorporated into the composition of the coating in accordance with the usual methods of fillers or incorporation pigments, which will now be described generally with particular reference to the pigments.
The pigments can be dispersed in the carrier, which is a polymer component and one of the resins of the polymer component, by a two-step process. In a first step, the pigment agglomerate breaks into smaller particles. In a second step, the air in the superfisie of the pigment particles is displaced by the resin to "moisten" the pigment and thereby fully develop its shadow of color and strength. A method for dispersing the pigment in the resin or polymer component is first to precipitate the pigment with granules of the resin and then obtain an intimate mixture by the process of the mixture precipitated in a cylinder mill, Banbur mixer, intensive mixer or an extruder double or single screw.
The disperse dye may be a conventional color concentrate or a liquid color. If a liquid color is used, it should be used at a sufficiently low level to be ensapsulated by the polymeric component so that the coating is solid at ambient temperatures. Typical color concentrates may include one or more thermoplastic resins and one or more pigments. Examples of suitable dealplastic resins include, without limitation, seras, as are the examples given above; polyolefins, polystyrenes and polyvinyl slurry resins.

The consintration of the pigment will vary depending on the selection of the pigment and the carrier. Liquid colors typically have pigment twists of about 10% to about 80%.
It is particularly preferred that the coating comprises at least one color consentrate. The color concentrate can be prepared according to the conosid media, less pigments are sweated and optionally with additional additives such as anti-oxidants and used as the coating to prepare the adapted resins of the invention.

Solor consentrates are easily commercially available from a number of companies, including ReedSpectrum, Holden, MA; Unifor Color Company, Holland, MI; Americhem Inc., Cuyahoga Falls, OH; and Holland Colors Amerisas Inc., Richmond, IN.
The body of the thermoplastic resin may also include one or more additives. When the same additive is present in the composition of the body of the thermoplastic resin and in the layer of the plastic-plastic coating, then the composition of the coating can be used to increase the amount of the additive in order to adapt the level of that additive on top of the additive. the base resin. When the additive which is present in the coating is not present in the body deposition of the thermoplastic resin, then the addition of a layer of the coating can be used to adapt to the granulate by not including an additive in the body of the resin. The coating preferably includes less an additive that is not included in the body of the thermoplastic resin. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the body of the plasticplastic resin is not pigmented - that is, it does not substantially contain pigment or solderant - and the coating comprises at least one pigment or dye.
The polymeric component of the coating must have an initial temperature for its melt processing range that is less than the temperature- i or i of the fusion processing range of the thermoplastic resin body. Of this ods, the melt of the coating comprising the polymeric component can be applied as a melt to the thermoplastic resin body composition while the latter is a solid or substantially a solid. The initial temperature of the melt processing range of the polymer component of the resubrimiept is preferably above about 20 ° C and more preferably above about 60 ° C, and even more preferably it is found at about the same time. 80 ° C. The initial temperature of the melt processing range of the polymer component of the coating preferably has an initial temperature for its melt processing range of at least about 20 ° C below, and even more preferably at least 40 ° C below, The initial temperature for the fusion processing range of the body of the thermoplastic resin. If the adapted thermoplastic resin granules are to be dried using a dryer, then the melt processing range of the polymer component is preferably higher than the dryer temperature. In a preferred embodiment, the coating encapsulating the granulate of the thermoplastic resin is essoge to avoid or decrease the water's absorption, so that the drying step before forming the desired article is unnecessary.
The initial temperature of the melt processing range of the rewind somposisance which is the polymeric somponent should be below the initial melt processing range temperature of the thermoplastic body composition. An initial temperature lower than the melting process range can be obtained by using a different polymer material, for example, using a nylon ortho-synthesis for the deposition of the thermoplastic resin body and a polyethylene composition as the coating composition or using resins within the same class of psimeric material that have different processing temperature ranges that are due to molecular weights, plasticizers with lower melting materials, or using different monomers in the resin synthesis that tends to decrease its temperature range of prosesamiento. For example, the somposision of the thermoplastic resin body can comprise a polyolefin resin and a coating sompostion can also comprise a polyolefin, but with the polyolefin of the coating having a lower initial temperature of the melt processing range.
The thermoplastic resins or resins that are included in the polymer component of the coating preferably have no deleterious effects on any resin in the body composition of the plasticplastic resin. For example, the polymeric component should not have resin that is incompatible with a resin of the composition of the thermoplastic resin body at the expected processing temperatures, in which the adapted resin will be used to form the final article. An example of this harmful interaction would result from a combination of polyvinyl chloride and nylon in which HCl generation of PVC during the process could lead to the degradation or discoloration of nylon. A second example of an undesirable interassion would be a transesterification or transmidifisation between a nylon and a polyester. Another example of an undesirable interassión would be the stratification of two resins during the weight of formation of the final article due to the incompatibility. While it is not preferred to use the resin combinations that have this type of interactions, still another type of undesirable resins can be used in the re-surfacing solution in small sanctities, such as those less than about 5% by weight and especially less than about 3%. % by weight based on the total weight of the adapted thermoplastic resin.
For convenience, but without limitation, the adapted thermoplastic resin of the present invention will be described hereinafter generally in terms of a granule shape, even when other forms are contemplated, as mentioned above.
In a preferred process for the production of adapted thermoplastic resins of the invention, the unmodified thermoplastic resin and optionally, one or more additives such as UV stabilizers or processing aids are charged to a hopper and fed into a screw extruder or double screw If desired, a protruding feed of glass or mineral reinforcements, and optionally a modifier can be introduced into the melting zone of the extruder. The extruded nozzle can be cooled, for example, in a bath of j > water and then granulate t in accordance with the methods customary to produce the body of the thermoplastic resin. In the case of a thermoplastic resin that is susceptible to yellowing, the extrudate is preferably rapidly cooled to a temperature below the melting point range, preferably at a temperature below about 150 ° C, and preferably at a temperature that is not less than about 60 ° C. In general, coatings compositions having low melt processing ranges are preferred for thermoplastic resins that tend to turn yellow. Granules based on hydroscopic thermoplastic materials should be allowed to dry before coating.
After being formed, the granulates can be coated by different methods. In one method, the granulates are placed in a container with a coating composition while the granulates are still ensued at a temperature per unit of the initial temperature of the melt processing range of the coating composition. In this case, the composition of the coating could already be fused or it could be fused by the heating of the granules or by means of the salifier externally apportioned to the sontener. For example, without limitation, the coating is. You can introduce to the container a dust suando is going to melt in the sontenedsr. It is preferred, particularly if the coating composition does not fuse before being contacted with the granules, that the coating composition has an initial temperature for its melt processing range that is below the temperature of the granules in the container. , which will generally be above about 60 ° C and up to about 150 ° C. The contents of the container are mixed, for example by tamboreasing or "with wheel vane or auger blade." Additional heat can be applied to the container if necessary to obtain the desired coating of the granules with the coating composition. they are cooled by using a cooling jacket stirring the contents of the container, with the direct application of cooling air to the granules in the container or to the granules after they are taken from the sontener, or by putting in sontasto the granules are a cooler without reassignment such as liquid nitrogen or dry ice, the granules can be precipitated or stirred during the cooling so that they can not clump together, preferably the granules are cooled to a temperature at which the coating hardens to be easily removed. of the granules of the container and they can also be cooled what is necessary before being impassable.
In a second method for delaying the rewind of the granules, the granules after the granulator exists and while they are still projecting, are transported to an area where the deposition of the coating is applied as a melt (ie, without solvent). The composition of the coating can be applied by sprinkling, since the composition is of a viscosity suitable for the spray equipment or is applied by powder coating methods. The coating is preferably applied as a hot melt - Although it is not necessary to apply the coating to all surfaces of the granulate, care must be taken (as is true for the coating layer application method) to apply an adequate amount of the coating. composition of the coating so that the ratio of the desired weight of the coating to the granulate is achieved. Too much dew (ie, the rosy coating composition that does not become deposited on a granule) can be re-absorbed, re-coated. ? merge and re-spray. The fused coating composition can be dripped into the granulates instead of being blended. In a second method, the coating composition can also be applied by transporting the granules through a melt bath of the coating composition. The granules can be transported through the melting bath by means of, for example and without limitation, a conveyance belt or by immersing the mixture in a porous metal basket.
It is also possible to allow the granules to be completely cooled and then the granulate to be left at a desired temperature again before coating. This reheating should be carried out, for example, with hot air or radiant heating. In this way the granules which made the body of the thermoplastic resin of the thermoplastic resins adapted from the invention could be reheated and covered a time later to form the adapted thermoplastic resin.
In some cases, it would be beneficial to cool the granules below the initial temperature of the fusion processing range of the composition of the overlay. For example, in the processes described above in which the molten coating composition is applied to the granules of the resin, it would be possible to use cooled granules to speed the cooling and harden the coating being applied. For example, it would be desirable to use granules that are at ambient temperature or below it to increase the thickness of the reuptake pouches that can be piled up or hasten the production of the sub-granules.
In a further method of granular re-surfacing, the granules and coating composition are charged to a fluidized bed reactor, a cylinder mill, a ball mill (with the granules replacing the steel balls) or a dispersing equipment with a flat impeller together with the coating. It is also possible to load the granules and the components of the individual coating of the polymeric component, such as a polyolefin wax and the additive component, consisting of for example, one or more pigments or dyes and / or optionally one or more other additives. The materials are then processed at a temperature at which the coating or the polymer component is a melt but in which the granules remain solid. This can be achieved by adding the coating or the polymeric component as a melt, applying heat to the processing container after the ingredients are loaded, by the heat generated by the frissión and sizállamiento of the materials during the process or by any combination of these . After processing them for a sufficient time to produce a substantially homogeneous coating on the granules, the coated granules are cooled, preferably by stirring or precipitating to prevent the granules from agglutinating as the coating solidifies.
The sub-granules or the adapted thermoplastic resin of the invention may be formed into articles according to any of the methods known in the art for the thermal fusion processing of the thermoplastic resin compositions. For example, compression molding, vessel molding, injection molding, thermoforming, blow molding, calendering, melting, extrusion, filament winding, lamination, spin or bone molding, transfer molding, contact molding or accumulation , stamping, and combinations of these > Methods can be used with the adapted thermoplastic resins formed by the present methods.
