Description

Polyethylene composition, preparation method and application thereof, and polyolefin microporous breathable film
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of polyolefin compositions, in particular to a polyethylene composition, a preparation method and application thereof, and a polyolefin microporous breathable film.
Background
The breathable film is also called as a 'water-blocking breathable microporous film', and has the characteristics of ventilation and water impermeability. A composite material is prepared from thermoplastic plastics as matrix, and solid particles (such as calcium carbonate, barium sulfate, titanium oxide and talc powder) through blowing, rolling or casting to obtain film, and uniaxial or biaxial stretching under proper conditions to obtain microporous film. The microporous breathable film can allow gases such as water vapor, air and the like to pass through, can block liquid, can be widely applied to medical articles such as medical protective clothing, wound nursing bandages, dressings and the like, sanitary articles such as baby diapers, adult nursing products and the like, and the fields such as food packaging, daily products and the like, and is a new material which is rapidly developed in the last twenty years.
In theory, thermoplastics could be the matrix resin for the breathable film material, but polyethylene breathable films have the greatest ratio from the point of view of the overall market value of microporous breathable films. Polyethylene has the advantages of rich raw material sources, easy processing and forming, good film forming effect, comfortable and soft hand feeling and the like, and is widely used for matrix resins of breathable film materials.
The hygiene industry is the largest end market for polyethylene breathable films, and therefore the safety and comfort of the breathable film must be considered, and therefore, considerable quality requirements are placed on the porogens used in the preparation of the polyethylene breathable films. Inorganic filler, especially calcium carbonate, is the preferred material for pore-forming agent due to its abundant resources, low cost and good comprehensive properties. However, the inorganic pore-forming agent has the advantages of hydrophilic and oleophobic surface, extremely strong polarity, poor compatibility with a polymer matrix and difficult uniform dispersion in the matrix. Meanwhile, the dispersion uniformity of the pore-forming agent in the matrix can influence the mechanical property, the surface flatness, the pore diameter uniformity of micropores, the porosity and other parameters of the breathable film. In the traditional production process, the inorganic filler is pretreated by adopting a surfactant, so that the compatibility of the inorganic filler and a matrix is improved, and meanwhile, the dispersing problem of the inorganic filler is solved by adding a coupling agent and a dispersing agent.
CN102336940a discloses a composition of a breathable film with low air permeability and a preparation method thereof, and the composition comprises a polyolefin resin mixture, an air permeability regulator, surface modified micron-sized inorganic particles, an antioxidant, a lubricant and a coupling agent, and has the advantages that the micron-sized inorganic filler can improve the mechanical property of the breathable film, and meanwhile, the surface of the inorganic particles is coupled and modified to increase the compatibility with the polyolefin resin, but the disadvantage that the micron-sized inorganic particles cannot be uniformly dispersed in matrix resin, thereby affecting the air permeability uniformity of the film.
The CN1176986C discloses a preparation method of a special resin for polyolefin high-air-permeability casting film, which is prepared by taking polyolefin resin (three compounds of LDPE, LLDPE and copolymerized PP) and superfine mineral filler (calcium carbonate, talcum powder and the like with the particle size of 3-10 mu m) as main raw materials, adding a Ti-Al composite coupling agent, a POE modifier and an OPE dispersing agent, and carrying out coupling treatment, compatibilization dispersion, banburying and extrusion granulation. The special resin is prepared through casting and stretching processes, so that uniform and fine pores are generated between mineral filler particles and polyolefin in the film, and the polyolefin high-permeability casting film is formed after cooling and crystallization. The method can not effectively form holes and control the aperture, and an internal mixer is used, so that the process is complicated.
CN101747548A discloses a composite and a method for preparing a high strength polyolefin breathable film, the components comprising: polyolefin resin, micron-sized and nano-sized inorganic filler, antioxidant, processing aid and coupling agent. Wherein the nano inorganic filler can improve the mechanical property of the polyolefin breathable film, reduce the thickness of the breathable film, and can prepare the breathable film with high strength and high air permeability by adjusting the process conditions; however, the poor compatibility of the nano inorganic filler and the polyolefin resin can cause non-uniformity of ventilation of the material, thereby affecting the use of the breathable film.
At present, the following problems exist with inorganic porogens used in the market for producing breathable films: (1) easy agglomeration; (2) The pore diameter uniformity of the breathable film is poor due to the large particle size and the non-uniformity of the particle size distribution, and even a large number of pinhole defects occur; (3) The surface modification effect of the filler particles is poor, and the compatibility with a matrix is poor, so that the strength of the film is affected; (4) The filler particles have poor dispersibility and migrate to the surface of the breathable film, so that the breathable film has color differences or color spots.
