  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • The disclosure is illustrated by way of example and not by way of limitation in the figures of the accompanying drawings, in which like reference numerals indicate similar elements.
  • A plant molding process for a plant molding product includes the following contents: obtaining a high consistency paper pulp via adding water crushing pulp raw material (usually pulp boards or recycled papers) and obtaining paper serous fluid via the high consistency paper pulp diluted with water; obtaining a high consistency plant slurry via adding water crushing and then wall-breaking (kneaders can be used) plant raw material and obtaining plant serous fluid via the high consistency plant slurry diluted with water. Concentration of the paper serous fluid is preferably between 0.5% and 1.5%, and concentration of the plant serous fluid is preferably between 0.8% and 1.5%. The purpose of diluting the high consistency slurry is to facilitate the delivery of the serous fluid in a pipeline to avoid clogging. At the same time, the diluted serous fluid has a certain flow rate after casting into a mold, which can be evenly filled with a mold core. The plant molding process further includes the following contents: forming a pulp enveloping layer of a molding product by dewatering the paper serous fluid; forming a plant pulp layer of the molding product by dewatering the plant serous fluid; laminating the pulp enveloping layer and the plant pulp layer and processing non-fibrous material of the plant pulp layer to make it migrate towards the pulp envelope layer for combining them together.
  • The plant raw material includes: surplus materials after harvesting of agricultural crops such as rice straws, wheat stalks, cotton stalks and corn stalks, forestry side materials such as shrubs and wild grasses and surplus materials after wood processing, such as saw-milling edge materials. The above raw materials are physically shredded and the shredding shape is not specifically required. But at least one dimension should be smaller than the thickness of the final product to meet the usage conditions. That is to say, the more a wall along the shredding plant original tissue interface is opened, the physical crushing of the plant materials is better. The plant material is added water to form the plant slurry.
  • The enveloping layer of the molding product is formed by the paper serous fluid, and the pulp raw material can be pulp boards or recycled papers. The pulp enveloping process can adjust a color and a smoothness of the pulp, make the molding product better and meet different requirements of the manufacturers. The enveloping layer should control its density and thickness, and its density and thickness can be changed by the paper serous fluid concentration (between 0.15 and 1.5 %), the vacuum (between minus 0.05 MPa and minus 0.07 MPa) and the forming time (between 1 ms and 1 min).
  • According to the requirement, the cooperation of the plant serous fluid layer and a fabric layer can be controlled. An example of the molding product with a three-layer configuration is taken: firstly, the paper serous fluid is casted in a mold to form an inner layer of the plant molding product, and then the plant serous fluid is casted onto the inner layer to form an interlayer of the plant molding product. Finally, the plant serous fluid is casted onto the interlayer to form an outer layer of the plant molding product. In this way, the plant molding product with a three-layer configuration is obtained. During casting the structure of each layer, the moisture of the serous fluid should be removed in order to gradually form the layer. In this process, the moisture removed from each layer can be returned to the corresponding high consistency slurry for recycling again. At last, the plant molding product is heated and dried to obtain a final plant molding product. Generally, the molding product with pressure dehydration is transferred to a corresponding mold. So, a final product can be finalized, according to the product requirements, the selection of materials, the temperature range in 30 degree below zero and 280 degree, the real-time temperature environment, a continuous pressure range between 1 MPa and 11 MPa and a time range from 30 s to 30 min.
  • The conventional paper-making pulping technology requires the separation of cellulose from other substances as much as possible to retain cellulose and hemi-cellulose. The fluid with a certain concentration is formed to suit the process requirements of a paper sheet, with the material utilization at about 30%. The present disclosure uses crop straws and other plant materials as the plant raw materials, and the purpose is to crush the plant rather than separate fibers. And then all the fiber materials within the plant itself, such as pectin, fat, resin, are used to take phase transition and migration so that the fiber lap is realized. The strength of the plant molding product is increased by using material such as lignin and ash in the plant, and partial material surface migration is realized in the heating mold to meet the strength demand of the plant molding product. The present disclosure can utilize different components in the plant to achieve the plant molding product and enhancing the strength, and obtain 99.9% utilization rate of the raw material. The phase transition refers to the material from one phase changed to another phase, such as from solid-phase to the liquid-phase.
  • The conventional pulp molding process usually takes a pulp sucking, one time or more times molding methods in order to make the plant molding product look more neat and beautiful. The present disclosure process is provided for pulp sucking more than once and molding more than once. The plant molding product can be divided into three layers with an inner layer, a middle layer and an outer layer so that it is to impart various kinds of sensory perception to the product. In this way, this kind of plant molding process can not only ensure the strength of the plant molding product and meet various different demands, but also can guarantee the plant molding product configuration via molding for many times namely to numerous reshaping and functionality. At the same time, in order to realize the need of multiple molding, the requirement of the temperature, the vacuum degree and the parameters are higher than that of the conventional pulp molding process. A range of the vacuum degree is controlled within 0.05 MPa to 0.07 MPa, a temperature range in the mold is between 30 degree below zero and 280 degree, and an internal pressure of the mold is controlled by the hydraulics stepless regulation way.
  • In the present embodiment of the disclosure, the multi-layer structure can change biochemical characteristics and adjust the life cycle of the plant molding product by controlling thickness and density of each of the inner layer, the interlayer and the outer layer, as well as the interlayer between each two adjacent the inner layer and the outer layer. The principle is that the temperature and the pressure is applied between the pulp enveloping layer and the plant pulp layer, thereby the non-fibrous material of the plant pulp layer (such as pectin, resin, starch and other organic matter and inorganic metal molecules)can migrate from the plant pulp layer to an adjacent interface between the two parts. An organic matter is tightly wrapped in the structure by a fine structure of the pulp enveloping layer to be solidified and molded so that the organic matter is non-contacted with oxygen, thereby the oxidation reduction speed of the organic matter is reduced. In addition, a fine degree of the plant molding product can be adjusted by controlling the molding pressure of the mold. That is to say, the more the pressure is, the more dense the plant molding product is, thereby the path which gas molecules passing in a denser product is more narrow and tortuous. Thus, the transmittance of oxygen is also decreased. Therefore, it is possible to control the rate of oxidation and adjust the life cycle of the product by changing the fine density of the product to change the transmittance of oxygen. In the present disclosure, the reason for retaining the organic matter is that the organic matter can accelerate the degradation rate of the product during the degradation process. The whole product is a kind of pure plant raw material, with its waste product being composted, so it can directly carry on natural degradation and enter the natural circulation law.
