Abstract

A wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition, comprising 5 to 40 parts by volume of titanium oxide (B) and 5 to 40 parts by volume of barium sulfate (C) with respect to 100 parts by volume of a wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester (A); wherein the total of the (B) component and the (C) component with respect to 100 parts by volume of the (A) component is 15 to 45 parts by volume.

Claims (26)

1. A wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition comprising;

5 to 40 parts by volume of titanium oxide (B) and 5 to 40 parts by volume of barium sulfate (C) with respect to 100 parts by volume of a wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester (A);

wherein the total of the (B) component and the (C) component with respect to 100 parts by volume of the (A) component is 15 to 45 parts by volume.

2. A wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition comprising:

5 to 40 parts by volume of titanium oxide (B), 5 to 40 parts by volume of barium sulfate (C), and 1 to 15 parts by volume of glass fiber (D) with respect to 100 parts by volume of a wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester (A);

wherein a total of the (B) component, the (C) component, and (D) component with respect to 100 parts by volume of the (A) component is 15 to 45 parts by volume.

3. The wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 2 , wherein a fiber length of the (D) component is in a range of 0.1 to 3 mm.

4. The wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a primary particle size of the (B) component is in a range of 0.2 to 0.3 μm, and a primary particle size of the (C) component is in a range of 0.1 to 10 μm.

5. The wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a melting point of the (A) component is 320° C. or higher.

6. The wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a light reflectance with respect to light of a 420 nm wavelength at a molded surface of an injection-molded object thereof is 70% or higher.

7. A molded object of the wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 1 .

8. An LED reflector comprising the wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition according to claim 1 .

9. A wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester resin composition for molding an LED reflector, the composition comprising:

5 to 40 parts by volume of titanium oxide (B), 5 to 40 parts by volume of barium sulfate (C), and 1 to 15 parts by volume of glass fiber (D) with respect to 100 parts by volume of a wholly aromatic thermotropic liquid-crystal polyester (A);

wherein the total of the (B) component, the (C) component, and the (D) component with respect to 100 parts by volume of the (A) component is 15 to 45 parts by volume;

a primary particle size of the (B) component is in a range of 0.2 to 0.3 μm,

a primary particle size of the (C) component is in a range of 0.1 to 10 μm, and
