Description

Pre-swelling continuous extrusion foaming polylactic acid material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of high polymer materials, in particular to a pre-swelling continuous extrusion foaming polylactic acid material and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Polylactic acid (PLA) is derived from starch and cellulose biological polysaccharide produced by photosynthesis of plants and microorganisms, lactic acid is obtained by further fermentation, and finally, a high molecular material is synthesized through polymerization reaction. Polylactic acid has complete regeneration, complete biodegradability, good processing and forming capability and excellent mechanical properties, and has been widely paid attention and paid attention as degradable plastics. In developed countries, polylactic acid polymer materials have been used as a new generation of renewable environment-friendly materials, and intensive research, development and utilization are carried out. Polylactic acid is widely used as a substitute material for a series of polymer materials derived from petroleum resources, such as Polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyurethane (PU), acrylonitrile-styrene-butadiene copolymer (ABS), and the like, in the related fields of engineering plastics, daily necessities, packaging materials, medical materials, and the like.
However, PLA, as a thermoplastic polymer material, has relatively high glass transition temperature, high crystallinity and long crystallization time, and has the defects of high brittleness at low temperature or normal temperature, low thermal stability at high temperature, low thermal deformation temperature, easy hydrolysis, insufficient mechanical strength, narrow thermal processing window, and the like, so that it is difficult to apply to large-scale industrialization. Therefore, various modifications of polylactic acid to improve the comprehensive performance thereof have become bottlenecks that affect large-scale popularization and application of the material. In recent years, research on modification of polylactic acid is active, many results are obtained, and the application field of polylactic acid is effectively expanded.
Meanwhile, the PLA has complex production process and technology, long flow, high equipment requirement and great technical difficulty. These all result in high production cost and large investment scale, and finally directly result in high price enterprises of polylactic acid materials, the comprehensive cost of the polylactic acid materials exceeds more than 80 percent of the traditional petroleum-based plastics, the large-scale application space of the polylactic acid materials is limited, and the polylactic acid materials are difficult to accept by common consumers. Therefore, the cost of PLA materials and products is reduced, which is the first condition for large-scale popularization and application.
By adopting the advanced technology, the light weight of the PLA product is realized, and the method is the best way for effectively reducing the product cost. The use amount of materials in the PLA product is reduced through a foaming technology, the production cost is obviously reduced on the premise of ensuring that the use performance of the product is not influenced, a novel material which is environment-friendly, low in price and excellent in performance is provided, the competitiveness is extremely high, and the market demand can be met. Meanwhile, equipment in the production process of the PLA foaming material is simplified, and the large-scale production of the PLA foaming material can be realized by simply modifying the polylactic acid material and utilizing general extrusion equipment. Once industrialization is realized, trillion market scales are formed, plastic pollution can be reduced to the maximum extent, huge social benefits are formed, the development of the whole bio-based material industry can be driven, and huge economic benefits are generated.
Since the 90 s of the last century, the American academy of technology in Massachusetts has reported research on PLA foaming technology. After the commercial production of polylactic acid is realized by NatureWorks LLC in 2005, the downstream development and application research of PLA is gradually increased along with the expansion of the productivity of PLA and the gradual reduction of the cost. In 2011, li et al studied PLA in nitrogen and compressed CO by high pressure Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) 2 Non-isothermal crystallization behavior under ambient, CO 2 Pure PLA is foamed by kettle pressure as a foaming agent, the foaming temperature is between 90 and 105 ℃, and a PLA foamed sheet is prepared, wherein the porosity of the PLA foamed sheet is about 67.9 to 91.4 percent, the foaming ratio reaches 15 to 30 times, and the average diameter distribution of foam pores is wider and is between 80 and 270 mu m; 2012, xiao Qian Zhen et al used supercritical CO 2 As a foaming agent, the PLA microcellular foaming material is prepared by adopting a kettle pressure method, and the influence of process conditions including saturation temperature, pressure, time and foaming temperature on the foam material cell shape is researched. The melt strength of unmodified PLA is relatively low, the crystallization rate is slow, and the processing temperature is narrow, so that the PLA foamed product with uniform foam holes is difficult to prepare by adopting foaming processes such as extrusion, injection molding and the like, so a great deal of researches on PLA modification are presented in recent years, and the researches mainly comprise methods such as toughening, blending, long-chain branching, nucleation modification and the like; corre et al (2011 years)]Modifying PLA by using Joncryl 4368-BASF as a Chain Extender (CE), and then using supercritical CO 2 Pure PLA and modified PLA are subjected to kettle pressure foaming as a foaming agent, and the influence of the rheological property of the modified material and the foaming process condition on the foam morphology is researched; liu et al [2014]Pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA), triglycidyl isocyanurate (TGIC) and DCP are taken as chain extenders, PLA is subjected to long-chain branching modification through melting and banburying, the kettle pressure foaming process is adopted to compare the foaming performances of PLA, DCP modified PLA and LCB PLA, and the finding that the PLA modified by the PLA and the DCP can not obtain a foaming material with better cell morphology is that the foaming material prepared from the LCB PLA has better cell structure, the cells are regular and uniformly distributed, and the average diameter is about200-300 μm; wang et al [2012]With CO 2 As a foaming agent, three kinds of PLA with different structures, namely linear PLA, short Chain Branched (SCB) PLA and LCB PLA are subjected to extrusion foaming by a double-stage continuous extrusion process, and the foaming effects of different PLA are compared; zhou et al [2015]A novel chain extender TMP6000 is selected for carrying out long-chain branching modification on PLA, and the influence of the novel chain extender on the crystallization property and rheological property of the modified PLA and the foam material cell shape is researched. Compared with pure PLA, the complex viscosity and the tensile viscosity of the modified PLA are greatly improved, and the cold crystallization behavior of the PLA is inhibited by the branched structure. When supercritical CO is used 2 When the foaming agent is used for foaming, the viscoelasticity of the system is improved, so that the foaming material with regular shape of foam pores, uniform distribution, small size of the foam pores and high density can be prepared; xie Deming [2017 ]]The invention discloses a technical invention patent (ZL 201110292129.0, ZL 201510490024.4) which respectively realizes a large-scale production technology for synchronously carrying out PLA modification and continuous extrusion of foamed sheets by using liquefied butane and supercritical carbon dioxide fluid as foaming agents and adopting a double-stage extrusion unit. The foaming multiplying power is 10-25 times, the diameter of the foam hole is 50-2000 mu m, the foaming material with a partial closed hole structure is widely applied to food packaging and industrial cushion packaging, the comprehensive cost of the PLA material is greatly reduced, and the industrial production is realized.
With the literature information in mind, PLA foaming research has focused primarily on batch (autoclave) foaming with CO 2 As a blowing agent. Problems and disadvantages include low production efficiency, high cost, high equipment requirements, and undesirable expansion ratio and foam properties. The continuous extrusion foaming method disclosed at present has strict requirements on PLA modification, expensive cross-linking agents, branching agents and bridging agents are required to be adopted to react at high temperature so as to change the PLA molecular chain structure, extrusion foaming equipment has strict requirements on screw design, good mixing effect is required to be realized, and the foaming agent is promoted to be dispersed and dispersed uniformly at different parts.
