PLA PBAT degradable plastic granulator

The production process of Jwell Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. combined with the characteristics of PBAT, and successfully developed a direct continuous esterification production process.

Its operating characteristics are as follows:

1. In order to reduce the occurrence of side reactions of BDO, reduce the generation of THF, and reduce the consumption of raw materials, the entire esterification reaction is under vacuum conditions. It can lower the esterification reaction temperature and reduce energy consumption at the same time.
2. Due to the low activity of the raw materials, high-performance catalysts are used; the PBAT degradable plastic granulator has the characteristics of easy hydrolysis and deactivation of the catalyst. The traditional method of adding the catalyst above the liquid level is changed to below the liquid level. Join to solve the above problems.
3. During the polycondensation process, the oligomers produced are easily carried into the spray system along with the vacuum gas phase pipeline, causing system blockage. To this end, a cyclone separation and collection system are installed on the gas phase pipeline, and the generated oligomers are collected and captured by a cyclone separator, and the tail gas enters the BDO spray circulation system.
4. During the esterification reaction process, although the degree of side reactions can be reduced, they cannot be avoided.

The main components of the esterification wastewater are THF and water. Because THF is of low toxicity, PBAT degrades plastic granulators but its high concentration is easy to cause harm to the human body. If it is directly discharged into sewage treatment, it will harm the bacteria in the sewage treatment system. For this purpose, a THF recovery device PBAT degradable plastic granulator Jwell Machinery Co., Ltd. is set up.

The PBAT degradable plastic granulator separates THF and water. After the recovery device is processed, the mass fraction of THF can reach more than 99.95%. The mass fraction of THF in the wastewater is controlled at about 0.05%; at the same time, this part of the wastewater is sent to the wastewater stripping tower for steam stripping, and the THF and other organic substances are extracted. The heat resistance is good, and the heat distortion temperature is close to 100℃.

After modification, the use temperature can exceed 100℃, and it can be used to prepare hot and cold beverage packaging and lunch boxes. It overcomes the shortcomings of the low heat resistance temperature of other biodegradable plastics.

The PBAT degradable plastic granulator has very good processing performance and can be processed in existing plastics. Various types of molding processing are performed on general-purpose equipment, which has the best processing performance of degradable plastics. At the same time, a large amount of calcium carbonate, starch, and other fillers can be blended to obtain low-priced products; polyethylene bags will produce a large number of oxygenated compounds after degradation.

Specifically speaking, after degradation, the large molecules of the plastic become many small molecules of ketones, aldehydes, acids, esters, etc. The Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences used a 1600x microscope to observe the degraded debris-it can be clearly seen that a large number of fungi, bacteria, and mycelium are attached to the surface of the degraded debris. This shows that in the later stage of degradation-biodegradation can completely make it harmless-assimilated with the soil and absorbed by the environment.

The technical field relates to a fully biodegradable PLA/PBAT composite material and a preparation method thereof.

PLA PBAT biodegradable compounding machine Background technique

The use of plastic film has penetrated into all areas of people’s lives and is widely used in food packaging, electronic and electrical product packaging, shopping bags, garbage bags, etc.

The raw materials of traditional plastic film materials such as polypropylene (PP) film and polyethylene (PE) film are petroleum, which is difficult to degrade after being discarded in nature, causing great harm to the environment. With the increasing depletion of petroleum resources and people’s increasing awareness of environmental protection, the development of fully degradable environmentally friendly polymer materials for application in the field of thin-film materials has become the mainstream of future development.

Polylactic acid (PLA) is an aliphatic polyester obtained by converting starch extracted from renewable plant resources such as corn and potato into glucose, which is fermented into lactic acid and further polymerized. The glass transition temperature Tg of PLA is about 55°C, and the melting point Tm is about 180°C. PLA has good biocompatibility and high strength and can be completely biodegraded. The final product after degradation is water and carbon dioxide. Therefore, it is non-toxic. Will not cause environmental pollution. Although PLA has excellent comprehensive properties and high strength, its toughness is poor. The elongation at break of pure PLA is about 4%.

Poly(butylene terephthalate-co-butylene adipate) ester (PBAT) is an aliphatic-aromatic copolyester. This copolyester has good biodegradability. The final product of degradation is water and carbon dioxide. It is an environmentally friendly polymer material. At the same time, it also has good ductility and toughness, as well as good heat resistance. And impact performance. Therefore, by blending polylactic acid and poly(butylene terephthalate-co-butylene adipate) ester, using the performance advantages of the two to complement each other, adjusting the blending ratio of the two, not only can obtain higher strength It can also improve the flexibility of the blend. The film prepared by the blend can achieve full biodegradation and is an environmentally friendly material.

However, compared with traditional polypropylene, polyethylene, and other materials that can be used to prepare films, the cost of preparation of polylactic acid and poly(butylene terephthalate-co-butylene adipate) is higher, especially It’s the latter. This will make the fully biodegradable film prepared by the blend of PLA and PBAT at a price disadvantage compared with the traditional plastic film, which is not conducive to its promotion and application. Starch is widely found in plants in nature, rich in resources, low in price, and biodegradable. Therefore, by adding starch to the blend of PLA and PBAT, the prepared composition can not only achieve full biodegradation but also can reduce the preparation cost of the composition and increase its market competitiveness.

After searching the prior art, it is found that the patent CN102257068 discloses a biodegradable packaging film; blending polylactic acid, starch, and aliphatic-aromatic copolyester, and realizing the blend by adjusting their blending ratio The balance of mechanical properties. Since polylactic acid, starch, and aliphatic-aromatic copolyester have poor compatibility with each other, it is difficult to obtain a composition with better mechanical properties by simple blending.

The literature (CarbohydratePolymers[J], 2009, 77: 576–582) reported the use of maleic anhydride in the double bond polymerization to connect a section of polymer with good compatibility with polyester as a compatibilizer to compatibilized polylactic acid and starch. And aliphatic-aromatic ternary blend; however, the disadvantage of using this compatibilizer is that it is not biodegradable, which destroys the full biodegradability of the blend. Although using isocyanate chain extenders as compatibilizers can also improve the compatibility of the three, on the one hand, isocyanate chain extenders are more toxic, and on the other hand, most of them are liquid, which is inconvenient to add and use.

Polylactic acid can be made into various bags, such as degradable garbage bags, degradable daily necessities bags, degradable shopping bags, degradable packaging bags, degradable express bags, etc.

What are degradable packaging bags and fully degradable packaging bags?

Degradable packaging bags mean that they can be degraded, but degradation can be divided into “degradable” and “fully degradable”.

Partial degradation refers to plastics that are added with a certain amount of additives (such as starch, modified starch or other cellulose, photosensitizers, degradants, etc.) during the production process to reduce their stability and are easier to degrade in the natural environment.

Total degradation means that all plastic products degrade into water and carbon dioxide. The main raw material of this fully degradable material is processed (corn, cassava, etc.) into lactic acid, which is PLA.
