Technical Field
The present invention relates to a preparation method of a graft rubber latex, more precisely a method of preparing and coagulating a graft rubber latex having excellent thermal stability without using an additional thermo-stabilizer and having increased efficiency in applying to a screw type dewatering machine.
Background Art
A rubber-reinforced resin such as acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), methacrylate-butadiene-styrene (MBS) and acrylonitrile-styrene-acrylate (ASA), etc. is obtained by preparing a rubber-reinforced latex by emulsion polymerization, coagulating and drying into a powder. The prepared powder is added in an extruder together with a resin such as styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer (SAN), polyvinylchloride (PVC) and polycarbonate (PC), etc. leading to the primary process to produce a pellet and the secondary process to inject the pellet At this time, it is generally preferred to add rubber-reinforced powder having moisture content of less than 1% into the extruder for the primary process.
In some cases, the rubber-reinforced latex is coagulated without drying to prepare a powder containing moisture. This powder is placed in an extruder and moisture of the powder is eliminated
therein. Then, the powder is mixed with a resin such as styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer (SAN), polyvinylchloride (PVC) and polycarbonate (PC), etc. to produce a pellet At this time, the moisture content in the rubber-reinforced resin powder is around 30%. If the moisture content is higher than that, water elimination process in a dehydrator is extended, resulting in errors of product quality and decrease of productivity.
Accoridingly, when the powder including moisture is loaded in an extruder, it is essential to minimize water content to increase productivity. However, the conventional centrifugal dehydration has its limits in minimizing water content
To overcome the above problem, an alternative method was proposed, that is water content was reduced by using a screw type dewatering machine. But, in that case, an additional high temperature - high pressure process is required, resulting in the decrease of thermal stability of a resin and further deformity of the resin.
Thus, in the rubber-reinforced resin production industry, it is important to maximize the productivity of the rubber-reinforced resin to increase price competitiveness, in addition to increase the quality of a product
As a method for increasing the productivity of a rubber-reinforced resin, a method to increase the extrusion productivity has been proposed. Precisely, the amount of each major and minor ingredient to be loaded in an extruder is increased and screw rpm and a temperature in the extruder are up-regulated considering the increased each major and minor ingredient content, so that
the discharging resin is increased. If necessary, a specially designed screw can be used to strengthen the mixing process of the ingredients.
This method to increase the extrusion productivity favors the increase of the productivity and improvement of properties including impact strength owing to the secured dispersity of rubber particles, but has disadvantages of reducing thermal stability by the increased friction of a resin resulted from the high shear force and accelerating thermal degradation due to the increased temperature. The decrease of thermal stability by thermal degradation causes color change in a final product. Even if the color change might not be significant, color change and gloss reduction will be resulted during the secondary process of injection, making errors in products.
To solve the above problem and to maximize the productivity, thermal stability of a resin prepared by emulsion polymerization has to be fundamentally improved and at the same time a method to improve thermal stability during the process needs to be developed.
The conventional method to improve thermal stability of a resin prepared by emulsion polymerization is focused on graft-polymerization forming a shell, particularly in the case of using a rubber-reinforced resin having a core-shell structure, and secondly on the selection and introduction method of an antioxidant to prevent the resin from being oxidized by thermal history during coagulation and drying process. Besides, the conventional method to secure thermal stability during extrusion is generally focused on the minimization of friction between a resin and a barrel during the process by the addition of a thermo-stabilizer or a lubricant.
However, the effect of the above conventional methods is vulnerable according to the extrusion productivity requested. That is, to guarantee equal quality of a product before and after increasing the productivity, an antioxidant has to be used excessively or various lubricants have to be added or if one lubricant is used, the amount has to be excessive. Therefore, mechanical properties and appearances are to be changed and at the same time price competitiveness might be rather decreased.
To overcome the problems of the conventional methods, it is an object of the present invention to provide a preparation method of a graft rubber latex having excellent thermal stability without using an additional tiiermo-stabilizer and having increased efficiency in applying to a screw type dewatering machine, and a coagulation method of the same.
The above object and other objects of the present invention can be achieved by the following embodiments of the present invention.
To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a preparation method of a graft rubber latex by polymerization of a monomer mixture comprising one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a rubber latex, an aromatic vinyl compound, a vinyl cyan compound and an acrylate compound, characterized by the use of a first hydrophobic (oil soluble) peroxide-based polymerization initiator before the polymerization conversion rate of the monomer mixture
reaches 50% and the use of a second hydrophobic peroxide-based polymerization initiator after the above time point
The present invention also provides a coagulation method of the graft rubber latex, which is characterized by the following steps: early coagulation induced by adding a metal salt to the graft rubber latex; and late coagulation induced by adding an acid to the coagulated latex above, leading to coagulation and aging.
The present invention further provides a preparation method of a graft rubber latex composition, comprising the steps of coagulating the prepared graft rubber latex by the above coagulation method; preparing a rubber resin containing moisture by reducing water content of the coagulated rubber latex to the level of up to 2 -10 % by using a screw type dewatering machine; and mixing and melting the rubber resin containing moisture with one or more resins selected from the group consisting of styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer, polyvinylchloride and polycarbonate, and a lubricant

As a result, a graft rubber latex was prepared by emulsion polymerization with increasing grafting efficiency. Then the present inventors completed this invention by confirming that the rubber resin having excellent thermal stability even at high temperature and under high shear force can be prepared without additional use of a thermo-stabilizer by treating one or more coagulators stepwise.

The acid herein is exemplified by sulftiric acid, phosphoric acid or hydrochloric acid, and particularly sulftiric acid is preferred.
In general, either acid or metal salt is added for coagulation, but it is more preferred in order to guarantee oxidative stability and improve color quality (whiteness) of a final product to induce early coagulation using a metal salt and then late coagulation using an acid for complete coagulation and aging.
In the late coagulation, pH of the graft rubber latex is preferably 3-7. This pH range has been confirmed to be effective, precisely the latex in this pH range exhibited neither damage on whiteness of a resin usually caused by acid-treatment nor decrease of thermal stability caused by the metal remaining on the resin.
The coagulated graft rubber latex is turned into a solid type having 20 - 40% water content, for which excessive water content is reduced by a dehydrator, followed by hot-air drying to give a powder-type latex. The latex powder is placed in an extruder or the moisture containing solid latex
