Low-glossiness anaerobic biodegradable biaxially oriented polypropylene film
Technical Field
The invention relates to a low-glossiness anaerobic biodegradable biaxially oriented polypropylene film and a manufacturing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of biaxially oriented polypropylene film processing.
Background
The existing plastic waste treatment modes generally comprise four modes: traditionally, burying, incinerating, recycling and composting. Researches have proved that the plastic takes more than four hundred years to be slowly decomposed, so that the traditional burying and composting can not fundamentally solve the environmental pollution. Incineration of waste plastics generates large amounts of carbon dioxide and toxic gases, which aggravate environmental pollution and greenhouse effect. More importantly, the above treatment method is limited to the case where the waste plastics are collected. Biaxially oriented polypropylene film (i.e. BOPP film) is widely used as an excellent packaging material for stationery, photo album, clothing, cigarette, cake, ice-lolly, etc. The sporadic nature of its packaging and the uncertainty of its use render it essentially useless after use and impossible to collect or completely collect. The degradation of the degradable BOPP film is imperative, and a plurality of achievements are obtained at present, particularly in the aspects of photodegradation and biodegradation, but the photodegradation can only occur in places with light, and has certain limitation. Biodegradation is achieved by adding modified starch, but it has some influence on the function and appearance of the product, and some products are difficult to finally decompose. Oxidative degradation is degraded under an aerobic condition, but the additive is metal salt polluted soil, most importantly, the degradation has a certain period, strict requirements are imposed on the service period of a product, waste materials in the production process cannot be recycled, and the method cannot be popularized in a large range. The ideal biodegradable plastic is a high molecular material which has excellent service performance, can be completely decomposed by environmental microorganisms after being discarded and finally becomes inorganic to become a component of carbon circulation in nature, and the anaerobic biodegradation is a plastic which is degraded by the action of microorganisms existing in nature, such as bacteria, mould (fungi) and algae. Therefore, the development and production of the anaerobic biodegradable BOPP novel film are great tendency in China and abroad, and are the needs of human living environment.

The invention provides a low-glossiness anaerobic biodegradable biaxially oriented polypropylene film and a manufacturing method thereof, the film is nontoxic, does not degrade in a normal storage environment, does not influence the service cycle of a product, does not change the function and the appearance of the conventional BOPP, and does not harm the environment due to the decomposition products of water, carbon dioxide, methane and humus.
In order to achieve the purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the invention is as follows:
the anaerobic biodegradable biaxially oriented polypropylene film with low glossiness comprises an upper surface layer, a core layer and a lower surface layer, wherein the raw materials of the upper surface layer comprise 96.5-98% of polypropylene, 1.5-2.5% of an anti-sticking agent and 0.5-1.0% of an anaerobic biodegradation chemical auxiliary agent in percentage by weight; the core layer comprises 93-97.5 wt% of homopolymerized polypropylene, 1.0-3.0 wt% of antistatic agent, 1.0-3.0 wt% of slipping agent and 0.5-1.0 wt% of anaerobic biodegradation chemical auxiliary agent; the raw materials of the lower surface layer respectively comprise 99.0 to 99.5 weight percent of matte material and 0.5 to 1.0 weight percent of anaerobic biodegradation chemical auxiliary agent.
The anti-sticking agent in the upper surface layer and the anti-sticking agent in the lower surface layer are both synthetic silica anti-sticking agents; the polypropylene in the upper surface layer is one of homo-polypropylene or co-polypropylene; the melt index ranges of the homopolymerized polypropylene selected for the upper surface layer and the core layer are both 2.6-3.2g/10 min.
The matte material of the lower surface layer is a melt shear of high-melt index polypropylene and low-melt index LDPE according to the mass ratio of 55: 45; the polypropylene of the matte material is homopolymerized polypropylene, and the melt index range of the polypropylene is 2.6-3.2g/10min
The antistatic agent is an alkylamine antistatic agent; the slipping agent is erucic acid amide slipping agent and is a conventional additive for BOPP.
The anaerobic biodegradation chemical auxiliary agent is a melt blend of aliphatic and aromatic polyester, modified plant cellulose and homo-polypropylene, and the blend of the anaerobic biodegradation chemical auxiliary agent comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 5% of aliphatic and aromatic polyester, 4% of modified plant cellulose and the balance of homopolymerized polypropylene.
The modified plant cellulose is a modified esterification product of natural plant cellulose, and the particle size of the modified plant cellulose is required to be less than or equal to 2 mu m.
The thickness of the upper surface layer is 1.0 μm, the thickness of the core layer is 10.0-58.0 μm, and the thickness of the lower surface layer is 2.0-3.0 μm.
A method for manufacturing a low-glossiness anaerobic biodegradable biaxially oriented polypropylene film comprises the following steps:
⑴ feeding, namely feeding the components of the upper surface layer, the core layer and the lower surface layer into the corresponding twin-screw extruders in proportion.
⑵ is extruded and plasticized at the low temperature of 230 ℃ and 250 ℃.
⑶ cooling the cast sheet, wherein the water temperature of the chill roll is controlled at 38-40 deg.C, and the water temperature of the water tank is controlled at 38-40 deg.C.

The key point is that the aliphatic and aromatic polyester anaerobic auxiliary agent is added into the BOPP film, and the BOPP film is introduced into a biodegradation stage through chemical activity caused by bacteria and is decomposed into water, carbon dioxide, methane and humus substances. The modified plant cellulose added in the product improves the growth speed of microorganisms and accelerates the final decomposition of the product into carbon dioxide, water and methane.
In addition, the physical properties of the product are not influenced by the addition of the anaerobic biodegradation chemical auxiliary agent, and no bacteria exist in an aerobic environment before the product is discarded, so that the degradation activity does not occur, and the service cycle is not influenced, wherein the addition proportion of the anaerobic biodegradation chemical auxiliary agent is 1%, and the degradation cycle is 3-4 years in a composting environment.
The invention adopts the low-temperature extrusion process of 230-250 ℃ by utilizing the advantages of the double-screw extruder, is beneficial to the full melting and dispersion of the biodegradation agent and is not easy to lose effectiveness by thermal cracking.
The total content of the added active ingredients is lower than 1000ppm, and the organic auxiliary agent does not change the appearance and the function of the common BOPP, so the invention is an adding process and can be produced on the existing German Brukner biaxial tension line.
Compared with the common biaxially oriented polypropylene film, the low-glossiness anaerobic biodegradable biaxially oriented polypropylene film prepared by the invention has no great change in appearance and physical property, and is obviously faster in decomposition under high-density anaerobic conditions than the common biaxially oriented polypropylene film (the test standard is ASTM D5511).

Meanwhile, the addition process is adopted, so that the existing equipment and the performance of raw materials are not required to be changed. The manufacturing cost is low.
(2) The added aliphatic and aromatic polyesters are embedded into the polypropylene molecular chain in the processing process, so that the polypropylene molecular chain is expanded and broken in an anaerobic environment, and the aliphatic and aromatic polyesters can absorb bacteria to cause chemical reaction so that the polypropylene reacts into CH4And CO2。Thereby preparing an environment-friendly typeA degradable polypropylene film.
