Patent ID: 8449802

Claim:
A process for producing an acrylic matt thermoplastic resin film having a thickness of 10 to 300 μm by applying a high stretching processing via two rolls simultaneous contacting the film, the process comprising kneading a thermoplastic resin composition (I) comprising (A) an acrylic resin and (B) 0.5 to 20 parts by weight of a crosslinked acrylic polymer as a matting agent based on 100 parts by weight of said acrylic resin (A), forming said composition into a film, and stretching the film, bringing the both surfaces of said film into contact with rolls simultaneously between said rolls, the film temperature being not less than Tg of the thermoplastic resin (I) in the high stretching processing, wherein one surface of said film is brought into contact with a roll kept at a temperature of not less than the glass transition temperature Tg of said resin composition (I) to thereby convert said surface into a mirror surface, and the other surface of said film is brought into contact with a roll kept at a temperature of less than the Tg to thereby convert said other surface into a matt surface, wherein said acrylic resin (A) is an acrylic graft copolymer comprising (a-1) 5 to 85 parts by weight of an elastomeric polymer composed of 50 to 99.9% by weight of an alkyl acrylate, 0 to 49.9% by weight of other copolymerizable vinyl monomer and 0.1 to 10% by weight of a copolymerizable polyfunctional monomer having at least two non-conjugated double bonds per a molecule, and (a-2) 95 to 15 parts by weight of a graft component composed of 50 to 100% by weight of an alkyl methacrylate and 0 to 50% by weight of other vinyl monomer copolymerizable therewith which have been graft-polymerized onto said elastomeric polymer (a-1), in which said elastomeric polymer (a-1) has a particle size of 50 to 400 nm, wherein said crosslinked acrylic polymer (B) is a graft copolymer comprising (b-1) 40 to 100 parts by weight of a crosslinked acrylic ester polymer prepared by polymerizing 100 to 90% by weight of an acrylic monomer composed of 40 to 90% by weight of an alkyl acrylate and 60 to 10% by weight of an alkyl methacrylate with 0 to 10% by weight of at least one other copolymerizable vinyl monomer and 0.1 to 20 parts by weight of a copolymerizable polyfunctional monomer having at least two non-conjugated double bonds per a molecule based on 100 parts by weight of the total of said acrylic monomer and said other vinyl monomer, and (b-2) 60 to 0 part by weight of a graft component composed of 60 to 100% by weight of an alkyl methacrylate, 0 to 40% by weight of an alkyl acrylate and 0 to 10% by weight of other copolymerizable vinyl monomer which have been graft-polymerized onto said crosslinked acrylic ester polymer (b-1).
