Abstract

To provide an inorganic filler fluidity modifier for improving the fluidity of an inorganic filler. Specifically, the inorganic filler fluidity modifier is an ester resin represented by the following general formula (1) (M is an aliphatic monoalcohol residue having 3 to 18 carbon atoms, L is an aliphatic hydroxycarboxylic acid residue having 2 to 23 carbon atoms, and A is an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid residue having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or an aromatic dicarboxylic acid residue having 6 to 18 carbon atoms)

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1 . An inorganic filler fluidity modifier which is an ester resin represented by the following general formula (1):

wherein M represents an aliphatic monoalcohol residue having 3 to 18 carbon atoms; L represents a ricinoleic acid residue or an aliphatic hydroxycarboxylic acid residue in which one hydroxy group is substituted on an aliphatic chain of an aliphatic carboxylic acid selected from the group consisting of pentadecylic acid, palmitic acid, margaric acid, and stearic acid; A represents an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid residue having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or an aromatic dicarboxylic acid residue having 6 to 18 carbon atoms; and n represents the number of repetitions.

2 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 1 , wherein M is an aliphatic monoalcohol residue having a branched structure having 5 to 18 carbon atoms.

3 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 1 , wherein A is an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid residue having 2 to 4 carbon atoms.

4 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 1 , which has an acid value in a range of 5 to 120 mgKOH/g.

5 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 1 , which has a number average molecular weight in a range of 500 to 5,000.

6 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 1 , which is a liquid at room temperature.

7 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 1 , which is used for one or more inorganic fillers selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, silica, alumina, aluminum hydroxide, talc, barium titanate, boron nitride, and aluminum nitride.

8 . An inorganic filler-containing resin composition comprising a resin, an inorganic filler, and the inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 1 .

9 . The inorganic filler-containing resin composition according to claim 8 , wherein the inorganic filler is one or more selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, silica, alumina, aluminum hydroxide, talc, and barium titanate.

10 . The inorganic filler-containing resin composition according to claim 8 , further comprising a plasticizer.

11 . The inorganic filler-containing resin composition according to claim 8 , wherein the resin is one or more selected from the group consisting of polyolefin, polyester, polysulfide, polyvinyl chloride, modified polysulfide, silicone resin, modified silicone resin, acrylic urethane resin, epoxy resin, polyurethane, acrylic resin, polyester, and unsaturated polyester.

12 . A molded article of the inorganic filler-containing resin composition according to claim 8 .

13 . An inorganic filler fluidity modifier which is an ester resin represented by the following general formula (1) and which is a liquid at room temperature:

wherein M represents an aliphatic monoalcohol residue having 3 to 18 carbon atoms; L represents a ricinoleic acid residue or an aliphatic hydroxycarboxylic acid residue in which one hydroxy group is substituted on an aliphatic chain of an aliphatic carboxylic acid selected from the group consisting of pentadecylic acid, palmitic acid, margaric acid, and stearic acid; A represents an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid residue having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or an aromatic dicarboxylic acid residue having 6 to 18 carbon atoms; and n represents the number of repetitions.

14 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 13 , wherein L is an aliphatic hydroxycarboxylic acid residue having a branched structure having 2 to 23 carbon atoms in which one hydroxy group is substituted on an aliphatic chain of an aliphatic carboxylic acid selected from the group consisting of pentadecylic acid, palmitic acid, margaric acid, and stearic acid.

15 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 13 , wherein M is an aliphatic monoalcohol residue having a branched structure having 5 to 18 carbon atoms.

16 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 13 , wherein A is an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid residue having 2 to 4 carbon atoms.

17 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 13 , which has an acid value in a range of 5 to 120 mgKOH/g.

18 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 13 , which has a number average molecular weight in a range of 500 to 5,000.

19 . The inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 13 , which is used for one or more inorganic fillers selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, silica, alumina, aluminum hydroxide, talc, barium titanate, boron nitride, and aluminum nitride.

20 . An inorganic filler-containing resin composition comprising a resin, an inorganic filler, and the inorganic filler fluidity modifier according to claim 13 .
