Description

Method for recycling polylactic acid material under catalysis of zinc catalyst
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of polylactic acid recovery; in particular to a method for recycling a polylactic acid material under the catalysis of a zinc catalyst.
Background
White pollution from waste plastics is a huge harm to the ecological environment and human health. In recent years, with the increasing of people's awareness of environmental protection and the upgrading of the policy of ' plastic restriction ' the degradable plastics are receiving increasingly extensive attention and are greatly developed. Among them, polylactic acid can be used as a substitute for conventional petroleum-based non-degradable plastics due to its good biocompatibility and physical and mechanical properties, and is widely used in various fields of social life. However, as the amount of polylactic acid used increases, the post-treatment problem of the polylactic acid waste generated in large quantities has also attracted attention.
Polylactic acid is a novel degradable material, and common waste post-treatment methods comprise biodegradation, physical recovery, chemical degradation and the like. The degradation of polylactic acid can be achieved under specific conditions by biodegradation such as bio-composting, but usually takes a long time, and the final degradation products are carbon dioxide and water, which cannot be directly and rapidly recycled, and are essentially huge wastes without better utilization of resources. The recovery of polylactic acid materials by physical methods such as melting remolding or granulating remolding is also a waste recycling way, but the physically recovered polylactic acid materials can only be made into low value-added products such as fiber products, and the method is a degraded utilization process. The recycling of polylactic acid is realized by a chemical recycling method, and an effective solution for post-treatment of waste polylactic acid is provided, but most of the existing chemical recycling methods convert polylactic acid into organic small-molecule chemicals, for example, enthaler et al report that polylactic acid can be degraded into methyl lactate by DMAP catalysis (chemistry select 2019,4, 6845-6848).
Therefore, although some methods for post-treating polylactic acid waste exist at present, the methods degrade and utilize or convert the polylactic acid waste into other products. So far, no method can realize the real recycling of polylactic acid materials, and the polylactic acid waste is recovered in a high-quality polylactic acid mode. Therefore, there is a need for the development of a novel method for recovering and reusing polylactic acid in the true sense, which is important for environmental protection and sustainable development.
