  • Patent number: 7868063
    Abstract: Disclosed is a powdered polymeric lubricant having a multi-layer structure as a processing aid capable of being used to improve processability of a vinyl chloride resin, and a manufacturing method thereof. The powdered polymeric lubricant having multi-layer structure according to the present invention has an excellent ability to prevent its adhesion to a metal surface upon its processing so as to give a long-term workability to extrusion, calendaring, blow molding, injection molding, etc., when a small amount of the powder of the present invention is mixed with a vinyl chloride resin. Accordingly, the present invention provides a powdered polymeric lubricant capable of controlling compatibility with the vinyl chloride resin and minimizing the adhesive property to a metal surface of a processing machine when a vinyl chloride resin is processed with a polymer including a silicone-based polymer.

  • Patent number: 7173082
    Abstract: The invention relates to an acrylic impact modifier having a core-shell structure that provides an acrylic impact modifier composition comprising (a) a rubber core containing an alkyl acrylate polymer comprising at least two layers having different cross-linking densities, and (b) a shell containing an alkyl methacrylate polymer; to a process for the preparation of the acrylic impact modifier; and to a poly(vinyl chloride) composition comprising it. The acrylic impact modifier imparting excellent impact resistance was invented by employing multi-stage polymerization and at the same time by controlling the swelling index of rubber particles by changing the degree of cross-linking from stage to stage. And the poly(vinyl chloride) comprising the impact modifier of the present invention has good weatherability as well as excellent impact strength.

  • Publication number: 20070021557
    Abstract: The present invention relates to acryl-silicone hybrid impact modifiers, the method of their manufacture, and vinyl chloride resin compositions containing the above. The acryl-silicone hybrid impact modifier of the present invention is comprised of a) 0.01 to 10 parts by weight of a seed obtained through emulsion copolymerization of vinyl monomers and hydrophilic monomers; b) 60 to 94 parts by weight of an acryl-silicone hybrid rubber core covering the seed in which a polyorganosiloxane rubber phase is dispersed locally onto the inner part and surface of the acrylic rubber core containing alkyl acrylate polymers of which alkyl group has 1 to 8 carbon atoms; and c) 6 to 40 parts by weight of a shell covering the above rubber core and containing alkyl methacrylate polymers of which alkyl group has 1 to 4 carbon atoms. Thermoplastic resins containing the above, particularly by being added to vinyl chloride resins, they have effects of granting superior impact resistance, weatherability, and high gloss.
