Abstract
Provided is a cleaning agent composition that is capable of efficiently performing the substitution of a molding raw material in a hot runner type mold. The cleaning agent composition contains 100 parts by weight of a thermoplastic resin; 1 part by weight to 20 parts by weight of at least one type of fatty acid ester that is selected from glycerin fatty acid ester, polyglycerin fatty acid ester, or sorbitan fatty acid ester; and 1 part by weight to 15 parts by weight of a metal salt of a fatty acid and/or a hydroxyfatty acid. The cleaning agent composition is used for cleaning a flow channel for resin in a hot runner type mold.
Claims8
A cleaning agent composition for cleaning a flow channel for resin in a hot runner type mold, the composition comprising:
- 100 parts by weight of a polyolefin-based resin;
- 1 part by weight to 20 parts by weight of a fatty acid ester that is selected from the group consisting of:
- a glycerin fatty acid ester having a melting point of 60° C. or higher, a polyglycerin fatty acid ester having a polymerization degree of between two and 10, a sorbitan fatty acid ester having a melting point of 60° C. or higher, and combinations thereof;
- and
- 1 part by weight to 15 parts by weight of a metal salt of a hydroxyfatty acid,
- wherein carbon atoms of a fatty acid of the glycerin fatty acid ester number 18 or more, and
- wherein the fatty acid of the glycerin fatty acid ester is (i) a saturated fatty acid not having a double bond, and (ii) a straight chain fatty acid not having a branched chain.
A method for cleaning a flow channel for resin in a hot runner type mold, the method comprising:
- in a case where a first molding raw material filling the flow channel for resin is substituted with a second molding raw material, adding a cleaning agent composition to the first molding raw material, the second molding raw material, or both the first molding raw material and the second molding raw material,
- wherein the cleaning agent composition comprises:
- 100 parts by weight of a thermoplastic polyolefin-based resin,
- 1 part by weight to 20 parts by weight of a fatty acid ester that is selected from the group consisting of:
- a glycerin fatty acid ester, a polyglycerin fatty acid ester, a sorbitan fatty acid ester, and combinations thereof, and
- 1 part by weight to 15 parts by weight of a metal salt of a hydroxyfatty acid,
- wherein carbon atoms of a fatty acid of the glycerin fatty acid ester number 18 or more, and
- wherein the fatty acid of the glycerin fatty acid ester is (i) a saturated fatty acid not having a double bond, and (ii) a straight chain fatty acid not having a branched chain.
