Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing a polylactone having a high melt tension and improved in moldability, its resin composition and its molded article. SOLUTION: In the method for manufacturing a branched polylactone, a polylactone is subjected to a radiation treatment so that the inclination (α) of a plotted straight line expressed by logarithm (lnλn) of nonlinear parameter λn and elongation strain ε is in the range of 0.15-4.0 in the elongation viscosity measurement at the temperature 10 deg.C higher than the melting point. The polylactone composition comprises 100 parts by mass of the resin component comprising 5-100 mass % branched polylactone and 95-0 mass % linear polylactone and/or another thermoplastic resin and 0-70 parts by mass of fillers. The molded article is obtained by molding the composition.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for evaluating fracture toughness of a film that has correlation with the practical use conditions and that enables quantitative evaluation. SOLUTION: The method for evaluating fracture toughness of a film comprises subjecting a film with a thickness of 10-100 μm to a tensile test or a tearing test at a test speed of 5 m/min-300 m/min using a test specimen of the film in any of the forms as follows: (i) a form of the film having a specific location on which a stress is allowed to be concentrated when the film undergoes pulling or tearing and capable of observing the phenomenon of elongation or tearing selectively on the specific location; (ii) a form of No.2 dumbbell as described in JIS K7113; (iii) a form of an axial symmetry formed by symmetrically arranging two isosceles trapezoids with respect to the mating upper bases of the two isosceles trapezoids satisfying the condition: 2/5 ≤ a length of the upper base/a length of the lower base

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a resin composition having excellent mechanical properties and biodegradability, especially enabling a cost of the whole resin composition to be reduced and allowing the rate of collapsing the shape to be controlled without damaging the properties of an aliphatic polyester copolymer capable of excellently controlling the biodegrading rate. SOLUTION: This aliphatic polyester copolymer/starch-blended resin composition is obtained by blending an aliphatic polyester copolymer (having 25,000 weight average molecular weight) constituted by linking repeating units (P) represented by the formula (1): (-CO-R -COO-R -O-), R is a 1-12C bivalent aliphatic group; and R is a 2-12C bivalent aliphatic group), and repeating units (Q) represented by the formula (2): (-CO-R -O-), R is a 1-10C bivalent aliphatic group) with 0.1-5 pts.wt. linking agent such as a diisocyanate based on 100 pts.wt. copolymer, with a starch.
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To obtain the titled polymer of high surface hardness, useful for molded articles etc., by irradiating electron beams on an aromatic polycarbonate polymer prepared by carbonate linkage of 2,2-bis-(4-hydroxy-3-methylphenyl) propane. CONSTITUTION:First, 2,2-bis-(4-hydroxy-3-methylphenyl)propane and diphenyl carbonate are melted by heating in an inert gas atmosphere followed by adding potassium boron hydride as the catalyst for conversion into carbonate, to the melt to carry out polycondensation by heating under reduced pressure. Thence, the resultant polymer is taken out under an inert gas atmosphere and cooled. This polymer is then made into a pressed sheet through e.g. hot press quenching process followed by electron beam irradiation on this sheet, thus obtaining the objective polymer of formula (n is degree of polymerization).
