Definitions
- This invention relates generally to thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers, and more specifically to liquid crystalline poly(esteramides) that have a high heat distortion temperature.
- Thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers are well known in the art. They have excellent properties that make them useful in the manufacture of molded parts.
- the strength of molded parts at elevated temperatures, as measured by the heat distortion temperature, is ultimately limited by the melting temperature of the polymers. Nevertheless, molded parts made from some polymers retain their physical integrity at temperatures close to the melting temperature. This may be characterized as the difference between the melting temperature of the polymer and the heat distortion temperature.
- NDA 1,3-bis(trimethacrylate)-styrene resin
- HQ 1 ,4-hydroquinone
- TA terephthalic acid
- HBA 4- hydroxybenzoic acid
- BP 4,4'-biphenol
- Thermotropic liquid crystalline poly(esteramides) that consist essentially of monomer repeat units I, II, III, IV, V and optional VI have an excellent combination of properties, where:
- R and R' are alike or different and are selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, fluoroalkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, phenyl, and mixtures thereof.
- Some of the hydrogen atoms on the aromatic rings of monomer repeat units I, II, III, IV, V and VI optionally may be replaced with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of alkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, fluoroalkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkoxy groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, Cl, Br, F, I, aromatic groups having up to 7 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof.
- alkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms include linear and branched alkyl groups, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, 2-butyl and tert-butyl.
- Fluoroalkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms include linear and branched fluoroalkyl groups in which some or all of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced with fluorine.
- Alkoxy groups having 1 to 4 carbon atoms can be linear or branched, such as methoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy or isopropoxy.
- Aromatic groups having up to 7 carbon atoms include phenyl and methyl substituted phenyl groups.
- the liquid crystalline poly(esteramides) contain on a mole basis about 5% to about 80%) of monomer repeat unit I, about 5% to about 35%> of monomer repeat unit II, about 3%> to about 20%) of monomer repeat unit III, about 5% to about 35%) of monomer repeat unit IV, about 2%> to about 30%> of monomer repeat unit V, and 0 to about 10%> of monomer repeat unit VI.
- These polymers show an exceptionally high heat distortion temperature compared with their melting temperature as measured by differential scanning calorimetry. They also show excellent impact resistance, as measured by their high notched Izod impact strength values.
- monomer unit V is N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-aminoethyl-N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-aminoethyl-N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-aminoethyl-N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-aminoethyl-N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-aminoethyl
- the aromatic rings of monomer units I, II, III, IV, V and VI are not substituted.
- Monomer unit VI may be present in amounts up to about 10%>; its presence in the polymer is not necessary.
- Preferred polymer compositions contain on a mole basis about 20% to about 60% of monomer repeat unit I, about 10% to about 30%> of monomer repeat unit II, about 5% to about 15%) of monomer repeat unit III, about 10% to about 30%o of monomer repeat unit IV, and about 5%> to about 20% of monomer repeat unit V.
- the preferred poly(esteramides) may optionally also include up to about 10% of monomer repeat unit VI.
- More preferred poly(esteramides) on a mole basis are composed of about 30%) to about 50%) of monomer repeat unit I, about 15%) to about 25%) of monomer repeat unit II, about 5% to about 15%» of monomer repeat unit III, about 20%> to about 30%> of monomer repeat unit IV, and about 5%> to about 10%> of monomer repeat unit V; monomer repeat unit VI is not present.
- An especially preferred composition on a mole basis consists essentially of about 40%) of monomer unit I, about 20%> of monomer unit II, about 10%) of monomer unit III, about 25%) of monomer unit IV, and about 5%> of monomer unit V.
- Polymers having the compositions described above melt to form liquid crystalline melt phases.
- the polymers described above generally have melting temperatures as measured by differential scanning calorimetry in the range of about 275 °C to about
- compositions generally melt in the range of about 300°C to about
- liquid crystalline poly(esteramides) can be made by any of the methods already used in the art for making aromatic polyesters and poly(esteramides). These methods include: interfacial polymerization; the reaction of preformed phenyl esters of the aromatic acid groups with the phenolic groups of other monomers to yield polyester linkages and by-product phenol; and melt acidolysis polymerization, which is the preferred method. All of these polymerization methods involve the condensation of • reactive derivatives of the monomers rather than the free monomers, since the aromatic phenols and acids do not polymerize well.
- melt acidolysis polymerization the phenolic reactants are acetylated to yield aromatic acetate groups, and these are then heated in the melt with the aromatic acids to yield acetic acid and polyester linkages.
- This method is described in numerous patents, including U. S. Patent No. 4,473,682.
- the melt acidolysis method is most conveniently carried out by acetylating the phenolic groups in situ and then heating the acetylated monomers to a high enough temperature to induce polymerization.
- the melt acidolysis method is also useful for aromatic amines, which are generally charged to the reaction as N-acetyl derivatives rather than being acetylated in situ.
- the preferred aromatic amine, 4-aminophenol is generally charged to the polymerization reaction as N-acetyl-4- aminophenol (also referred to as 4-hydroxyacetanilide or acetaminophen).
- N-acetyl-4- aminophenol also referred to as 4-hydroxyacetanilide or acetaminophen.
- Examples of methods of synthesizing aromatic poly(esteramides) by this method can be found in numerous references, such as U. S. Patent Nos. 5,204,443, 4,330,457, 4,966,956, 4,355,132, 4,339,375, 4,351,917 and 4,351,918.
- the phenolic groups are acetylated in situ by including an approximately stoichiometric amount of acetic anhydride relative to the phenolic groups.
- acetic anhydride typically included in the "stoichiometric" reactions. It has surprisingly been found that the reaction is improved when a large excess of acetic anhydride is included in the reaction. Thus if an additional excess of about 20% acetic anhydride is included above the typical 2.5%> excess, so that a total of 23%) excess acetic anhydride is used, then the reaction rate increases and the polymeric product has a higher molecular weight, as shown by the increased inherent viscosity.
- excess acetic anhydride is generally beneficial when the amount of excess acetic anhydride (above the 2.5%> excess that is normally used in "stoichiometric" reactions) is in the range of about 5% to about 50%, preferably in the range of about 10% to about 30%>, and most preferably is about 20% (i.e. about 23% above true stoichiometry).
- the polymerization reaction is carried out until the polymer reaches a useful molecular weight, as indicated by the inherent viscosity measured at 25 °C of a 0.1 %> solution on a weight/volume basis in a mixture of equal volumes of pentafluorophenol and hexafluoroisopropanol.
- the inherent viscosity of the polymer generally is at least about 2 dl/g, preferably is at least about 3 dl/g, and ideally is at least about 5 dl/g.
- the polymers of this invention are useful in the manufacture of shaped articles, such as fibers, films (e.g. extruded sheets or films) and molded articles. They are particularly useful for making molded articles in which a high heat distortion temperature or high impact resistance is desired. These polymers have an unusually high heat distortion temperature (HDT) in comparison with the crystalline melting temperature (Tm). This is desirable because molded articles with a high HDT can be made from these polymers at lower temperatures than from other polymers that have the same HDT. Therefore, the deleterious effects that are associated with processing the polymer at a high temperature in the molten phase, such as decomposition of the polymer, fillers, or other additives, are less likely to occur.
- HDT heat distortion temperature
- Tm crystalline melting temperature
- Tm-HDT melting temperature and HDT
- the polymers of this invention are generally blended with fillers and other additives at levels up to about 70%> by weight in order to achieve optimum properties.
- Fillers and additives that may be useful include one or more fillers or reinforcing agents selected from the following list, which is not a complete or exhaustive list: glass fiber, calcium silicate, silica, clays, talc, mica, polytetrafluoroethylene, graphite, alumina, sodium aluminum carbonate, barium ferrite, woUastonite, carbon fiber, polymeric fiber, aluminum silicate fiber, titanium fiber, rock wool fiber, steel fiber, tungsten fiber and woUastonite fiber.
- Other kinds of additives that may be used in addition to reinforcing fillers and reinforcing fibers include oxidation stabilizers, heat stabilizers, light stabilizers, lubricants, mold release agents, dyes, pigments, and plasticizers.
- the polymers may also be melt spun into fibers having high strength and high modulus. After heat treatment, the fibers have tensile strengths up to about 20-25 gpd and modulus values up to about 500 gpd.
- the reactor was evacuated to approximately 1 to 2 mbar followed by breaking the vacuum with nitrogen.
- the vacuum-nitrogen purging process was repeated twice and 1004.1 grams (9.74 moles, 2.5 mole %> excess, 99 mol %> purity) of acetic anhydride was introduced into the reactor through an addition funnel.
- the reactor was then heated in stages using a MicRIcon® controller. The temperature at each stage was increased to the final temperature of that stage during the elapsed time. Steps 1, 12 and 13 are isothermal.
- the program follows:
- the acetic acid began distilling off when the reactor was at 150°C. About 99% of the theoretical amount (1165 ml) had evolved at the end of segment 13.
- the nitrogen purge was then turned off and the reactor was evacuated to about 2 mbar.
- the torque on the stirrer that was needed to maintain constant stirring speed started to rise.
- the reaction was terminated when the voltage to the stirrer increased by 12 mvolts above the initial value. This time was usually about 60 minutes to 100 minutes.
- the reactor was cooled and broken to obtain the polymer. The polymer was then cut and ground into 11 chips. The yield was 1180 grams (87%>).
- the inherent viscosity (IN.) of each sample was measured at 25 °C as a 0.1%) solution (wt./volume) in equal parts by volume of pentafluorophenol and hexafluoroisopropanol.
- the melting temperature (T m ), heat of melting ( ⁇ H m ), crystallization temperature on cooling from the molten state (T c ), and heat of crystallization ( ⁇ H C ) were measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC; 20°C/min heating rate).
- the melt viscosity of the polymer was measured in a capillary viscometer at shear rates of 100 sec "1 and 1000 sec" 1 . These properties are reported in Table 2.
- the molten polymer of Example 10(a) was extruded at about 340°C through a single hole spinneret (0.005 inch diameter and 0.007 inch length) at a rate of 0.15 g/min.
- the extruded filament was drawn down at a speed of 700 meters/minute and quenched in air at ambient conditions (about 25 °C and 65%> relative humidity).
- the tensile properties of the as-spun fiber were measured using ASTM test method D3822: tenacity, 6 gdp; elongation, 1.8%; modulus, 423 gpd.
- the as-spun fiber was then heat treated to obtain improved fiber properties as follows.
- Fiber in an unstressed state was heated from room temperature to 150°C over a period of 60 minutes.
- the fiber was held at 150°C for 60 minutes, then heated to 230°C over 60 minutes, held at 230°C for 3 hours, heated to 270°C over 60 minutes, and held at 270°C for 16 hours.
- the properties of the heat treated fibers were measured using ASTM test method D3822: tenacity, 16.3 gpd; elongation, 2.8%), modulus, 499 gpd.
- Example 8(b) was spun at about 329 °C to yield a fiber (single filament) having an as-spun tenacity of 6.2 gpd; elongation, 1.6%; modulus, 440 gpd. After heat treatment, the fiber had tenacity, 22 gpd; elongation, 4.2%>; modulus, 463 gpd.
- a polymer having the same composition as Example 9 and an IN. - of 3.8 dl/g was spun at 340 °C through a single hole spinneret to yield a fiber having as- spun tenacity, 7.9 gpd; elongation, 2%; modulus, 450 gpd. After heat treatment, the fiber had tenacity, 23 gpd; elongation, 4.1%>; modulus, 500 gpd.
