background
[6]
Artificial nails are mainly manufactured by injection molding. The ABS thermoplastic resin composition containing the acrylonitrile/butadiene/styrene graft copolymer is widely used for artificial nails because the separation operation is easy and burrs do not occur when the molded article is separated from the injection machine. . On the other hand, a general ABS thermoplastic resin composition has a hard property. When hard artificial nails are attached to natural nails using an adhesive, the curvature of the nails of consumers is different, so there is a high possibility that the artificial nails will come off when used. In addition, the wearability is deteriorated due to the force of continuing to restore the original state while attached to the consumer's nails. In order to compensate for these disadvantages, a method of manufacturing artificial nails with ethylene vinyl acetate or styrene/butadiene copolymer has been proposed. However, there is a disadvantage that the tip of the artificial nail is easily bent due to an external impact when worn because the artificial nail is soft. In order to overcome these disadvantages, a method of mixing the acrylonitrile/butadiene/styrene graft copolymer with ethylene vinyl acetate or styrene/butadiene copolymer has also been proposed. Recently, a lot of transparent artificial nails are used to create a variety of designs to suit individual personalities and tastes. A transparent graft copolymer, methyl methacrylate/butadiene/styrene copolymer, and ethylene vinyl acetate or styrene/butadiene copolymer There is a limit in that transparency cannot be maintained due to the difference in refractive index between the two materials. On the other hand, when compounding the methyl methacrylate/butadiene/styrene copolymer, there is an advantage in that the softness property increases as the rubber content increases, but the haze increases and the transparency deteriorates, the color decreases, and the processability decreases do.
[7]
Therefore, research to develop a thermoplastic resin composition for artificial nails excellent in transparency, processability and soft properties is continuing.

[59]
[60]
The diene-based rubbery polymer may have an average particle diameter of 50 to 200 nm, preferably 70 to 180 nm. When the above-described range is satisfied, excellent transparency may be realized even if the first copolymer is included in an excessive amount in the thermoplastic resin composition. If it is less than the above range, the impact resistance of the thermoplastic resin composition may be significantly reduced, and if it exceeds the above range, the transparency of the thermoplastic resin composition may be reduced.
[61]
[62]

[69]
[70]
The first copolymer may have a graft rate of 45 to 65% or 50 to 60%, of which 50 to 60% is preferable. When the above-described range is satisfied, transparency of the thermoplastic resin composition may be further improved, and compatibility with the second copolymer may also be improved.
[71]
[72]
Meanwhile, the transparency of the first copolymer may be determined by the difference between the refractive index of the diene-based rubber polymer and the refractive index of the shell, which is the copolymer of the first monomer mixture. That is, in order for the first copolymer to implement excellent transparency, the difference between the refractive index of the diene-based rubber polymer and the refractive index of the shell may be 0.01 or less, and it is preferable that there is no difference in the refractive index.
[73]
In addition, in order to realize excellent transparency of the thermoplastic resin composition, the difference in refractive index between the first copolymer and the second copolymer may be 0.01 or less, and it is preferable that there is no difference in refractive index.
[74]
[75]

When the above-mentioned range is satisfied, the transparency of the thermoplastic resin composition can be further improved by a synergistic action with the second copolymer to be described later.
[76]
[77]
(2) second copolymer
[78]
The second copolymer is a non-graft copolymer, and is a copolymer of a second monomer mixture including an alkyl (meth)acrylate-based monomer and an aromatic vinyl-based monomer.

The vinyl cyanide-based monomer may be included in an amount of 7 wt% or less based on the total weight of the second monomer mixture. When the above-described range is satisfied, the chemical resistance of the second copolymer may be improved while minimizing yellow expression due to the vinyl cyanide-based monomer.
[84]
[85]

When the above-described range is satisfied, the content of the diene-based rubbery polymer in the thermoplastic resin composition may increase, so that soft properties may be remarkably improved. Accordingly, the artificial nail made of the thermoplastic resin composition has a weak force to return to the original state while attached to the natural nail, so that the wearing comfort can be improved. However, when included below the above range, the flexural strength and flexural modulus are too high, so that the soft properties are not improved, and the artificial nail made of the thermoplastic resin composition may have reduced wearing comfort. When included in excess of the above-mentioned range, processability and transparency may be reduced.
[90]
[91]
2) plasticizer
[92]
The plasticizer is intended to improve processability and soft properties while maintaining transparency of the thermoplastic resin composition, and may have a viscosity of 1,500 to 5,000 cps, 2,000 to 4,000 cps, or 2,000 to 3,500 cps.

When the refractive index of the plasticizer satisfies the above-described conditions, transparency of the thermoplastic resin composition may be further improved. In addition, artificial nails made of such a thermoplastic resin composition can implement various colors as well as excellent transparency.
[95]
[96]
The plasticizer is preferably a polymer plasticizer rather than a phthalate-based plasticizer that causes environmental problems, and more preferably a polyester plasticizer. The plasticizer is polydi (2-ethylhexyl) glycol adipate; hexanedioic acid, polymer with 1,3-butanediol, 2-ethylhexyl ester; hexanedioic acid, polymer with 1,3-butadiol and 1,2-propanediol, 2-ethylhexyl ester; and hexanedioic acid, polymer with 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol and 1,2-propanediol, and preferably at least one selected from the group consisting of isononyl ester.
[97]
[98]
The plasticizer may use at least one selected from the group consisting of SONGCIZER TM P-2600 by Songwon Industries, SONGCIZER TM P-3000 by Songwon Industries, and Palamoll ® 652 by BASF among commercially available materials.
[99]
[100]
The plasticizer may be included in an amount of 4 to 10 parts by weight, 5 to 10 parts by weight, or 5 to 9 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the base resin, of which 5 to 9 parts by weight is preferable.

Preferably, the transparency is 1.8% or less, the flexural strength is 300 to 400 kg/cm 2 , and the flexural modulus is 11,500 to 13,000 kg/cm 2 . If the above-mentioned conditions are satisfied, excellent transparency and soft properties can be realized, so that it can be suitable for artificial nails. When transparency exceeds the above-mentioned range, transparency will fall. In addition, if the flexural strength and the flexural modulus are less than the above-mentioned ranges, there may be a problem in that the shape is easily deformed when manufactured as an artificial nail. When the flexural strength and the flexural modulus exceed the above-described ranges, the restoring force to return to the original shape is strong, and thus the user's nail may be easily removed or the fit may be deteriorated.
[104]
[105]
Meanwhile, transparency may be measured according to ASTM D1003, and flexural strength and flexural modulus may be measured according to ASTM D790.

Referring to Table 1, Examples 1 to 3 containing the graft copolymer and the non-graft copolymer in an appropriate amount were excellent in flow index, transparency, flexural strength, flexural modulus, hardness, and transferability to artificial nails. suitable for use. However, Comparative Examples 1 and 2 containing a small amount of the graft copolymer were not suitable for artificial nails because of their high flexural strength, flexural modulus and hardness compared to Examples 1 to 3. In addition, Comparative Example 3 containing an excess of the graft copolymer had a low flow index compared to Examples 1 to 3, which lowered workability, and had high transparency, making it unsuitable for artificial nails. Comparative Example 4, in which the average particle diameter of the diene-based rubber polymer was large, had high transparency and low flexural modulus, so it was not suitable for artificial nails. It was confirmed that the liquidity index increased while maintaining it. In particular, in the case of Examples 5 to 7, compared to Example 4, it was confirmed that the flow index was 10 g/10 min or more, indicating excellent workability.
[157]
Referring to Table 3, Examples 8 to 10, including the graft copolymer and the non-graft copolymer in an optimal content, were excellent in flow index, transparency, flexural strength, flexural modulus, hardness, and transferability. Suitable for nails. However, Comparative Example 5 containing a small amount of the graft copolymer was not suitable for artificial nails due to high flexural strength, flexural modulus and hardness. Comparative Example 6 containing an excess of the graft copolymer had a low flow index, so processability was deteriorated, transparency was high, and flexural modulus was low, making it unsuitable for artificial nails.
[158]
Referring to Table 4, within the appropriate range of the plasticizer content, Examples 11 to 13 were suitable for artificial nails because they were excellent in transparency, flexural strength, flexural modulus, hardness, and transferability. In particular, in the case of Examples 12 and 13, it was confirmed that the flow index was 10 g/10 min or more compared to Example 11, indicating excellent workability.
[159]
Referring to Table 5, Comparative Example 7 made of the graft copolymer was not suitable for artificial nails due to high flexural strength, flexural modulus and hardness, and Comparative Example 8 made of the graft copolymer and styrene/butadiene copolymer was opaque and high flexural strength and flexural modulus, making it unsuitable for artificial nails.
