Abstract

A resin composition includes a thermoplastic resin, a carbon fiber, a polyamide having at least one of a carboxy group and an amino group at a terminal thereof, in which a presence ratio of the amino group present on the terminal (terminal amino group) is higher than a presence ratio of the carboxy group present the terminal (terminal carboxy group), and a compatibilizer.

Claims (66)

1. A resin composition comprising a mixture comprised of:

a thermoplastic resin;

a carbon fiber;

a polyamide having at least a terminal amino group and optionally also having a carboxy group, wherein a concentration of the terminal amino group is higher than a concentration of the terminal carboxy group in the polyamide; and

a compatibilizer,

wherein the polyamide has a structure including both

(a) a structural unit (a) containing an aromatic ring excluding aramid, and

(b) a structural unit (b) not containing an aromatic ring, and

wherein the structural unit (a) containing an aromatic ring excluding aramid has a structure selected from the group consisting of structural unit (1) and structural unit (2):

—(—NH—Ar 1 —NH—CO—R 1 —CO—)—  structural unit (1)

in which Ar 1 represents a divalent organic group containing an aromatic ring excluding aramid and R 1 represents a divalent organic group not containing an aromatic ring;

—(—NH—R 2 —NH—CO—Ar 2 —CO—)—  structural unit (2)

in which Ar 2 represents a divalent organic group containing the aromatic ring excluding aramid and R 2 represents a divalent organic group not containing an aromatic ring;

wherein the divalent organic group is an organic group from a divalent organic group of dicarboxylic acid, diamine, or lactam.

2. The resin composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein a relationship between the concentration of the terminal amino group and the concentration of the terminal carboxy group per 1 kg of the polyamide satisfies the following formula:

0.6≤[ A ]/([ A ]+[ B ])≤1.0

wherein [A] represents a concentration of the terminal amino group (mol/kg) which is a molar amount of the terminal amino group per 1 kg of the polyamide, and

[B] represents a concentration of the terminal carboxy group (mol/kg) which is a molar amount of the terminal carboxy group per 1 kg of the polyamide.

3. The resin composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein the thermoplastic resin is a polyolefin.

4. The resin composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein the compatibilizer is a modified polyolefin.

5. The resin composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein an average fiber length of the carbon fibers is from about 0.1 mm to about 5.0 mm.

6. The resin composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein a content of the carbon fiber is from about 0.1 parts by weight to about 200 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the thermoplastic resin.

7. The resin composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein a content of the compatibilizer is from about 1 parts by weight to about 50 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the polyamide.

8. The resin composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein a content of the polyamide is from about 0.1% by weight to about 200% by weight with respect to a weight of the carbon fiber.

9. A resin molded article comprising mixed together in the resin molded article:

a thermoplastic resin;

a carbon fiber;

a polyamide having at least a terminal amino group and optionally also having a carboxy group, wherein a concentration of the terminal amino group is higher than a concentration of the terminal carboxy group in the polyamide; and

a compatibilizer,

wherein the polyamide has a structure including both

(a) a structural unit (a) containing an aromatic ring excluding aramid, and

(b) a structural unit (b) not containing an aromatic ring, and

wherein the structural unit (a) containing an aromatic ring excluding aramid has a structure selected from the group consisting of structural unit (1) and structural unit (2):

—(—NH—Ar 1 —NH—CO—R 1 —CO—)—  structural unit (1)

in which Ar 1 represents a divalent organic group containing an aromatic ring excluding aramid and R 1 represents a divalent organic group not containing an aromatic ring;

—(—NH—R 2 —NH—CO—Ar 2 —CO—)—  structural unit (2)

in which Ar 2 represents a divalent organic group containing the aromatic ring excluding aramid and R 2 represents a divalent organic group not containing an aromatic ring;

wherein the divalent organic group is an organic group from a divalent organic group of dicarboxylic acid, diamine, or lactam.

10. The resin molded article according to claim 9 ,

wherein a relationship between the concentration of the terminal amino group and the concentration of the terminal carboxy group per 1 kg of the polyamide satisfies the following formula:

0.6≤[ A ]/([ A ]+[ B ])≤1.0

wherein [A] represents a concentration of the terminal amino group (mol/kg) which is a molar amount of the terminal amino group per 1 kg of the polyamide, and

[B] represents a concentration of the terminal carboxy group (mol/kg) which is a molar amount of the terminal carboxy group per 1 kg of the polyamide.

11. The resin molded article according to claim 9 ,

wherein the thermoplastic resin is a polyolefin.

12. The resin molded article according to claim 9 ,

wherein the compatibilizer is a modified polyolefin.

13. The resin molded article according to claim 9 ,

wherein an average fiber length of the carbon fibers is from about 0.1 mm to about 5.0 mm.

14. The resin molded article according to claim 9 ,

wherein a content of the carbon fiber is from about 0.1 parts by weight to about 200 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the thermoplastic resin.

15. The resin molded article according to claim 9 ,

wherein a content of the compatibilizer is from about 1 part by weight to about 50 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the polyamide.

16. The resin molded article according to claim 9 ,

wherein a content of the polyamide is from about 0.1% by weight to about 200% by weight with respect to a weight of the carbon fiber.

17. The resin composition according to claim 1 ,
