Technical Field
The present invention relates to a polyimide resin composition.
Background
Polyimide resins are useful engineering plastics having high thermal stability, high strength and high solvent resistance, and are used in a wide range of fields, based on rigidity of molecular chains, resonance stabilization and strong chemical bonding. Further, the polyimide resin having crystallinity can be further improved in heat resistance, strength, and chemical resistance, and therefore is expected to be used as a metal substitute or the like. However, the polyimide resin has a problem that it has high heat resistance, but does not exhibit thermoplasticity on the other hand, and is low in moldability.
As a polyimide molding material, there is known a high heat resistant resin VESPEL (registered trademark) or the like (patent document 1), and molding is difficult because fluidity is extremely low even at high temperature, and molding for a long time is necessary under high temperature and high pressure conditions, which is disadvantageous in terms of cost. On the other hand, if the resin has a melting point and fluidity at high temperature, such as a crystalline resin, molding can be easily performed at low cost.
Therefore, in recent years, polyimide resins having thermoplastic properties have been reported. The thermoplastic polyimide resin has excellent moldability in addition to the heat resistance inherent in polyimide resins. Therefore, the thermoplastic polyimide resin can be applied to a molded article used in a severe environment where nylon or polyester, which are general-purpose thermoplastic resins, cannot be applied.
Studies have also been made to improve the thermal aging resistance of thermoplastic polyimide resins. For example, patent document 2 describes: a polyimide resin having a specific polyimide structural unit and having a chain aliphatic group having 5 to 14 carbon atoms at the end is excellent in moldability, heat resistance and thermal aging resistance. Further, it is described that a polyimide resin composition can be prepared by adding an additive such as an antioxidant to the polyimide resin.

Production example 1 production of polyimide resin 1
In a 2L separable flask equipped with a dean-Stark apparatus, a Libyh condenser, a thermocouple, and 4 stirring blades, 500g of 2- (2-methoxyethoxy) ethanol (manufactured by Nippon emulsifier Co., Ltd.) and 218.12g (1.00mol) of pyromellitic dianhydride (manufactured by Mitsubishi gas chemical Co., Ltd.) were introduced, and after purging with nitrogen, the mixture was stirred at 150rpm so as to obtain a uniform suspension. On the other hand, 49.79g (0.35mol) of 1, 3-bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane (manufactured by mitsubishi gas chemical corporation, cis/trans ratio: 7/3) and 93.77g (0.65mol) of 1, 8-octamethylenediamine (manufactured by kanto chemical corporation) were dissolved in 250g of 2- (2-methoxyethoxy) ethanol using a 500mL beaker to prepare a mixed diamine solution. The mixed diamine solution was added slowly using a plunger pump. The dropping causes heat generation, but the internal temperature is adjusted to be within 40-80 ℃. The mixed diamine solution was purged with nitrogen during the addition, and the rotation speed of the stirring blade was 250 rpm. After the completion of the dropwise addition, 130g of 2- (2-methoxyethoxy) ethanol and 1.284g (0.010mol) of n-octylamine (manufactured by Kanto chemical Co., Ltd.) as an end-capping agent were added and stirred. At this stage, a pale yellow polyamic acid solution was obtained. Subsequently, the stirring speed was set to 200rpm, and then the polyamic acid solution in a 2L separable flask was heated to 190 ℃. In the course of the temperature rise, precipitation of polyimide resin powder and dehydration accompanied by imidization were observed at a liquid temperature of 120 to 140 ℃. After 30 minutes at 190 ℃, the mixture was naturally cooled to room temperature and filtered. The obtained polyimide resin powder was washed with 300g of 2- (2-methoxyethoxy) ethanol and 300g of methanol, filtered, and dried at 180 ℃ for 10 hours by a dryer to obtain 317g of a polyimide resin 1 powder.
The IR spectrum of the polyimide resin 1 was measured, and the results were shown in ν (C ═ O)1768 and 1697(cm-1) Characteristic absorption of the imide ring was confirmed. Logarithmic viscosity of 1.30dL/g, Tm of 323 ℃, Tg of 184 ℃, Tc of 266 ℃, crystallization heat release of 21.0mJ/mg, crystallization half time of 20 seconds or less, and Mw of 55000.
The composition of the polyimide resin in production example 1 and the evaluation results are shown in table 1. The mole% of the tetracarboxylic acid component and the diamine component in table 1 is a value calculated from the amount of each component charged in the production of the polyimide resin.

Examples 1 to 9 and comparative examples 1 to 2 (production and evaluation of polyimide resin composition)
The polyimide resin 1 obtained in production example 1 was thoroughly mixed with each component shown in tables 2 and 3 by dry blending. The resulting mixed powder was extruded using a laboratory mixing extruder (manufactured by Labo Plastomill, Toyo Seiki Seisaku-sho, Ltd.) at a cylinder temperature of 350 ℃ and a screw rotation speed of 70 rpm. The strand extruded from the extruder was air-cooled and pelletized by a pelletizer (Fan cutter FC-Mini-4/N manufactured by Hoshi Plastic Co., Ltd.). The obtained pellets were dried at 190 ℃ for 10 hours and then used for injection molding.
Injection molding was carried out using an injection molding machine ("rotoshot α -S30 iA" manufactured by FANUC CORPORATION) with a cylinder temperature of 350 ℃, a mold temperature of 200 ℃ and a molding cycle of 50 seconds, and molded articles having predetermined shapes used for various evaluations were produced.
The pellets or molded articles thus obtained were used to conduct the various evaluations described above. The results are shown in tables 2 and 3.
