Description

セルロースエステル樹脂用添加剤及びセルロースエステル組成物Additive for cellulose ester resin and cellulose ester composition

 本発明は、セルロースエステル樹脂用添加剤及びセルロースエステル組成物に関する。 The present invention relates to an additive for a cellulose ester resin and a cellulose ester composition.

 セルロースエステルは、透明性、光学的等方性、強靭性であることから、例えば液晶ディスプレイや偏光サングラスレンズに用いられる偏光膜を保護するためのフィルムなど、光学フィルムとして広く使用されている。また、セルロースエステルフィルムは、適度な透湿性を示すことから、水糊を使用した偏光膜(ポリビニルアルコール(PVA)/ヨウ素)との接着が容易であることから広く使用されている。セルロースエステルフィルムにはリン酸トリフェニル(TPP)などのリン酸エステルやエステル系化合物が可塑剤および透湿性を制御する目的で使用される(特許文献1及び2)。 Because cellulose ester is transparent, optically isotropic and tough, it is widely used as an optical film such as a film for protecting a polarizing film used in a liquid crystal display or a polarized sunglass lens. Further, cellulose ester films are widely used because they exhibit appropriate moisture permeability and are easily bonded to a polarizing film (polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) / iodine) using water paste. Phosphate esters such as triphenyl phosphate (TPP) and ester compounds are used in cellulose ester films for the purpose of controlling a plasticizer and moisture permeability (Patent Documents 1 and 2).

 一方、セルロースエステルは、長期にわたる保管において徐々に加水分解が進行し、さらに湿熱環境下においてはその加水分解速度が加速することが知られている。特に、リン酸トリフェニル(TPP)などのリン酸エステルを使用した場合に、加水分解が促進され、長期的な安定性が悪いことが問題となっている。リン酸エステルなどの既存可塑剤と比較し、セルロースエステルの安定性を向上させる観点から脂肪族系ポリエステルまたはフタル酸系ポリエステル系可塑剤が使用されているが、長期的なセルロースエステル組成物の安定性は十分ではない。 On the other hand, it is known that hydrolysis of cellulose esters gradually progresses during long-term storage, and that the hydrolysis rate is accelerated in a moist heat environment. In particular, when a phosphate ester such as triphenyl phosphate (TPP) is used, hydrolysis is promoted, and there is a problem that long-term stability is poor. Compared to existing plasticizers such as phosphate esters, aliphatic polyester or phthalic polyester polyester plasticizers are used from the viewpoint of improving the stability of cellulose esters, but the long-term stability of cellulose ester compositions Sex is not enough.
