Background technology
Using in a large number and discarding of tradition macromolecular material not only causes the day by day in short supply of petroleum resources, but also ecotope is done great damage.Greatly develop bio-based and biodegradable material, progressively substituting the traditional macromolecular material generally using is the effective way addressing the above problem.Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is considered to one of material of the most promising in biological plastics family and competitive power, and it derives from biomass, under composting conditions, can degradablely be CO

Poly(lactic acid), comprises PLLA (PLLA), poly-dextrolactic acid (PDLA) and D-lactic acid-dextrolactic acid multipolymer (PDLLA), is considered to one of material of the most promising in biological plastics family and competitive power.Lactic acid poly-(PLA) derives from biomass, under composting conditions, can degradablely be CO
2and H
2o, can be to environment.In addition, PLA has biocompatibility, excellent light transmission and good hot workability.Yet the cost of PLA high (1.5-2 that price is PE doubly), heat-drawn wire is low, fragility is large etc., and defect has restricted its application and development in fields such as disposable product, packing film bag, container, automobile, household electrical appliances.
Along with the progress of macromolecule modified technology, the performance deficiency of PLA has larger improvement, yet high price but becomes the bottleneck that it substitutes traditional macromolecular material.In order to reduce its cost, prior art generally adopts the fillers such as cheap starch, silicate, carbonate to fill PLA.Yet, poly(lactic acid) and above-mentioned packing material consistency are poor, when loading level is higher, filler is easily reunited, cause its blend performance degradation (Yuan Hua etc. of material afterwards, < < plastics > >, 2011,40 (4), 40-43).A small amount of filler can improve crystallinity and the intensity of PLA, but the cost of gained matrix material is limited, and elongation at break is lower.
(the Gong Faming etc. such as Gong Faming, plastics industry, 2012,40 (3), 58-60) adopt silane coupling agent to carry out finishing to calcium carbonate, improved the mechanical property of PLA/ calcium carbonate composite material, when calcium carbonate-filled amount < 40%, the notched Izod impact strength of matrix material is about 5kJ/m
2, elongation at break is about 4%.
