本発明の高分子量化された芳香族ポリカーボネート樹脂の製造方法で用いられる芳香族ポリカーボネートは、上記ポリカーボネート共重合体の製造に用いられるのと同様に、前記一般式(II)で示される構造を主たる繰り返し単位とする重縮合ポリマー(芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマー)である。本発明の製造方法は、かかる芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーと、前記一般式(g1)~(g4)で示される構造を有する脂肪族ジオール化合物とを、減圧下でエステル交換反応させる工程を含む。これによって、耐衝撃性等のポリカーボネート樹脂本来の特性を維持しつつ、高分子量でありながら高流動性を与える連結高分子量化されたポリカーボネートの利点を有し、しかも耐熱性が格段に向上した芳香族ポリカーボネート樹脂が得られる。
特に、本発明の方法では、後述する特定条件を満たす末端封止された芳香族ポリカーボネート化合物を用いることが好ましい。
本発明の方法では、後述する特定条件を満たす末端封止された芳香族ポリカーボネート化合物を用いることが好ましい。
本発明においては、末端封止された芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーに脂肪族ジオール化合物をエステル交換触媒存在下、減圧条件にて作用させることにより、芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーが高分子量化する。この反応は温和な条件で高速に進み、高分子量化が達成される。すなわち、脂肪族ジオールにより芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーが開裂反応を起こした後エステル交換反応により脂肪族ポリカーボネートユニットが生成する反応よりも、脂肪族ジオール化合物と芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーとの反応が速く進行する。
以下に、本発明の前記一般式(g1)~(g4)で示される構造を有する脂肪族ジオール化合物を用いた製造方法の詳細な条件を説明する。
(i)脂肪族ジオール化合物の添加
本発明の前記一般式(g1)~(g4)で示される構造を有する脂肪族ジオール化合物を用いた製造方法においては、芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーに脂肪族ジオール化合物を添加混合し、高分子量化反応器内で高分子量化反応(エステル交換反応)を行う。
芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーと脂肪族ジオール化合物とのエステル交換反応(高分子量化反応)に使用する温度としては、240℃~320℃の範囲が好ましく、さらに好ましくは260℃~310℃、より好ましくは270℃~300℃である。
本発明の方法では、上記高分子量化反応によって芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーが高分子量化されると同時に、該反応で副生する環状カーボネートの少なくとも一部を反応系外へ除去する。副生する環状カーボネートを反応系外へ除去することによって芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーの高分子量化反応が進行する。
本発明においては、芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーと脂肪族ジオール化合物とのエステル交換反応により、反応後のポリカーボネート共重合体の重量平均分子量(Mw)が前記芳香族ポリカーボネートプレポリマーの重量平均分子量(Mw)よりも5,000以上高めることが好ましく、より好ましくは10,000以上、さらに好ましくは15,000以上高めるのが好ましい。
さらに好ましくは、ポリマーシールを有し、脱揮構造をもつ2軸押出機あるいは横型反応機が好適である。
好ましくは、ポリマーシールを有し、ベント構造をもつ2軸押出機あるいは横型反応機が好適である。
本発明の前記一般式(g1)~(g4)で示される構造を有する脂肪族ジオール化合物を用いた製造方法により得られる高分子量化された芳香族ポリカーボネート樹脂の重量平均分子量(Mw)は30,000~100,000、好ましくは30,000~80,000、より好ましくは35,000~75,000であり、高分子量でありながら、高い流動性を併せ持つ。重量平均分子量が低すぎると、ブロー成形、押出成形等の用途に用いた場合、溶融張力が低くなり、ドローダウンを生じやすく満足な成形品が得られなくなる。また、射出成形等の用途に用いた場合、糸引き等により満足な成形品が得られなくなる。さらに得られる成形品の機械的物性、耐熱性等の物性が低下する。また、オリゴマー領域が増大し、耐有機溶剤性等の物性も低下する。重量平均分子量が高すぎると、精密部品や薄物の射出成形が困難となり、成形サイクル時間が長時間となり生産コストへ悪影響を及ぼす。そのため、成形温度を上げる等の措置が必要となるが、高温下では、ゲル化、異種構造の出現、N値の増大などの可能性が生じる。

一般式(h1)中、Ra及びRbとしてより好ましくは、それぞれ独立して水素原子又は炭素数1~5の直鎖若しくは分岐のアルキル基であり、さらに好ましくは炭素数1~4の直鎖若しくは分岐のアルキル基である。特に好ましい具体例としては、メチル基、エチル基、プロピル基、n-ブチル基、及びi-ブチル基が挙げられる。
