Abstract

A liquid crystal polyester resin composition includes, based on 100 parts by mass of a liquid crystal polyester, 15 to 60 parts by mass of talc having a number average particle size of 10 to 50 μm, 25 to 50 parts by mass of a glass fiber having a number average fiber length of 100 to 200 μm and a number average fiber diameter of 4 to 8 μm, and 2 to 10 parts by mass of carbon black, wherein a melt viscosity as determined at a shear rate of 100 sec −1 at 370° C. is 10 to 100 Pa·S and a deflection temperature under load is 220° C. or more. The liquid crystal polyester resin composition is used to provide a liquid crystal polyester resin composition for a camera module, having good heat resistance, rigidity, strength, and moldability, and also an excellent surface exfoliation property in a well balanced manner and being capable of being surface mounted (SMT).

Claims (8)

1. A liquid crystal polyester resin composition for a camera module, characterized by comprising, based on 100 parts by mass of a liquid crystal polyester, 15 to 60 parts by mass of talc having a number average particle size of 10 to 50 μm, 25 to 50 parts by mass of a glass fiber having a number average fiber length of 100 to 200 μm and a number average fiber diameter of 4 to 8 μm, and 2 to 10 parts by mass of carbon black, wherein a deflection temperature under load is 220° C. or more and a melt viscosity at a shear rate of 100 sec −1 at 370° C. is 10 to 100 Pa·S.

2. The liquid crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 1 , characterized in that a number of exfoliations from a surface of a molded article by injection molding according to the following definition is 250 or less,

number of exfoliations=number of particles in 10 mL of pure water having a maximum diameter in the range of 2 μm or more after subjecting 2 cylindrical injection molded articles having a threaded structure with a 0.3 mm pitch and a 0.2 mm groove depth on an inner side of the article with 7 mm (outer diameter)×6 mm (inner diameter)×4 mm (height) to ultrasonic cleaning for 30 seconds at a power of 40 kHz and 480 W in 266 mL of pure water.

3. The liquid crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 1 , characterized in that a weld strength of a molded article by injection molding is 30 MPa or more.

4. A part for a camera module produced from the liquid crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 1 , by injection molding.

5. The liquid crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 2 , characterized in that a weld strength of a molded article by injection molding is 30 MPa or more.

6. A part for a camera module produced from the liquid crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 2 , by injection molding.

7. A part for a camera module produced from the liquid crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 3 , by injection molding.
