Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for producing a resin composition, which, by means of simple steps, can uniformly disperse microfibrillated plant fiber in a highly hydrophobic resin and can impart enhanced mechanical strength to a molding material obtained by molding the resin composition. The present invention further provides a resin composition having excellent heat resistance and low linear thermal expansion. The present invention relates to a method for producing a resin composition, the method including a step of mixing a thermoplastic resin or thermosetting resin (A), and modified plant fiber (b) or modified microfibrillated plant fiber (B), in the presence of an organic liquid (C), the modified plant fiber (b) or modified microfibrillated plant fiber (B) being obtained by modification with an alkyl or alkenyl succinic anhydride in a liquid capable of swelling microfibrillated plant fiber (B′) or plant fiber (b).

Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a highly versatile master batch for producing a fiber-reinforced resin composition with high strength even when a highly hydrophobic resin is used as a resin for dilution (a resin that constitutes a fiber-reinforced resin composition). The master batch contains AcylMFs (A), a Pm (B), and a Com (C) and is for use in the production of a fiber-reinforced resin composition by mixing with a Pd (D), wherein the AcylMFs (A), Pm (B), Com (C), and Pd (D) satisfy the following conditions: (a) the AcylMFs (A) have an SPacylmf of 10 or more; (b) the Pm (B) has an SPpm of 9 to 15, and the SPpm is equal to or greater than the SPpd of the Pd (D); and (c) the Com (C) has an SPcom equal to or less than the SPacylmf of the AcylMFs (A).
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a fiber-reinforced resin composition in which fibers with good dispersibility and a resin in which the fibers are easily dispersed have been suitably composited; and a method for producing the fiber-reinforced resin composition. Specifically, the object is to provide a fiber-reinforced resin composition that comprises chemically modified CNFs and a thermoplastic resin, and that has improved physical properties due to the suitable compositing of the fibers with the resin; and a method for producing the fiber-reinforced resin composition. The fiber-reinforced resin composition comprises chemically modified CNFs (A) and a thermoplastic resin (B), wherein the chemically modified CNFs and the thermoplastic resin satisfy the following conditions: (a) the ratio R of the solubility parameter (SPcnf) of the chemically modified CNFs (A) to the solubility parameter (SPpol) of the thermoplastic resin (B), SPcnf/SPpol, is in the range of 0.87 to 1.88; and (b) the chemically modified CNFs (A) have a degree of crystallinity of 42.7% or higher.
