Definitions
- the invention relates to a biodegradable film, with and without an adhesive layer, based on polylactides (polylactic acid) and a method for its production by reactive coextrusion.
- the biodegradable film can be used for hot lamination of different types of paper, aluminum foil or other films based on polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, etc., as well as the production of disposable products such as packaging, including food products, waste bags, shopping bags, sealing materials.
- Flexible films are usually composed of multiple layers, which include different types of materials to provide the desired functionality, such as flexibility, sealing, barrier properties and printing.
- flexible packaging material is often used as a food preservative.
- Flexible packaging is also used to store various consumer products.
- PLA polylactic acid
- PLA polylactic acid
- the ratio of the length of the screw to its diameter determines its ability to homogenize.
- a typical feature of the extrusion of polylactic acid is the ratio to be greater than 24.
- Most Extruders manufactured after the year 2000 have an equal or greater ratio. This allows the extrusion of polylactic acid on virtually any extruder manufactured after the year 2000.
- Polylactic acid films can be obtained by two methods:
- the first method has found the widest application. From the extruder, the molten plastic enters the die and it is distributed by the mandrel in an even thin layer and comes out in the form of a hot bubble. Compressed air is supplied through the mandrel, which inflates the bubble to the desired thickness of the film and at the same time cools it.
- the bubble is wound paired and guided by the nip rollers that continuously pull it at a constant speed. At the same time, the nip rollers perform the role of tightly pressing the bubble and preventing the inflating air from escaping.
- single-layer and multi-layer films can be produced at the same time.
- the film obtained by this method has an almost uniformly oriented structure longitudinally and transversely to the pull, which provides virtually the same properties in both directions. At the same time the film is characterized by some darkening due to the increased crystallization due to the delayed cooling.
- Another disadvantage of the blown film die ring extrusion method is the limitation of the plastics used, which must have relatively low values for their melt index equal to or less than 12 g/min at 190°C. This limitation is constructively related to the method of blown film die ring extrusion and subsequent bubble blowing. Plastics that do not meet these conditions (they are too fluid in molten state) are extruded through a flat die. Basically, this method extrudes polyolefin - polyethylene, polypropylene or their copolymers.
- Flat die extrusion consists of extruding a melt through a flat die while the melt is lowered vertically and directed toward cooling device. By cooling the surface of polished metal cooled rolls. With this technology single-layer or multi-layer films can be produced.
- the film obtained by this method has good optical properties, but the mechanical properties in the two directions differ significantly.
- the method allows extrusion of films of polyolefins, polyesters, polyvinyl chloride and others.
- Patent issued in China with No. CN109177401 which is part of the prior art, discloses a completely biodegradable film and its method of production by the blown extrusion method.
- the completely degradable film consists of three layers - inner, middle and outer layer, arranged sequentially.
- the inner layer comprises 10-25 parts polylactic acid PLA, 61.8 - 68.95 parts poly[butylene terephthalate-co-polybutylene glycol) terephthalate] , 0.1-2 parts of a compatibilizer, 0.1 weight parts of a plasticizer, 0.1-3 parts of a nucleating agent, 0.05- 0.2 parts of a chain extender, 0.1-1 part of an opening agent, 0.1-2 parts of a lubricant and 0.2-2 parts of black carbon.
- the middle layer comprises 10-25 parts of polylactic acid, 52.8-83.25 parts of poly[butylene terephthalate-co-polybutylene glycol) terephthalate], 0.1-2 parts of compatibilizer, 0.1-5 parts of plasticizer, 0.1-2 parts of lubricant, 0.05-0.2 part of chain extender and 6-12 parts of titanium dioxide.
- the outer layer comprises 15-30 parts of polylactic acid, 53.8-82.65 parts of parts poly[butylene terephthalate-co-polybutylene glycol) terephthalate], 0.1-2 parts of a compatibilizer, 0.1-5 parts of a plasticizer, 0.1-2 parts of a lubricant, 0.02-0.2 part of a chain extender and 2-6 parts of titanium dioxideEach of the three layers additionally comprises glycerol monooctadecanoate, acetyl tributyl citrate, ethylene bisteramide and a chain extender.
- the anti-blocking agent is erucylamide or oleamide and the chain extender is a triblock copolymer of styrene-acrylate-propylene oxide methacrylate and / or a triblock copolymer of styrene-maleic anhydride-propylene oxide methacrylate.
- the method for the production of the biodegradable film comprises the following stages: preparation of the composition of each of the layers and its supply to three separate extruders in a blown extrusion line; extrusion and granulation of each layer in a certain temperature profile in zones; simultaneous extrusion of the three layers by the method of blown extrusion; withdrawing the resulting bubble of the film to produce a fully degradable film.
- Document CN105416797 which is also part of the prior art, discloses a biodegradable express delivery packaging composed of a composite layer comprising a first layer, a third layer and a second layer located between the first and third layers. All layers are made of film material A or film material B, wherein film material A consists of the following components by weight %: 95.5% polylactic acid, 3% degradable color masterbatch and 1 .5% adhesive, and film material B consists of 95% polyadipic acid / PBT, 3.5% degradable color masterbatch and 1.5% adhesive.
- the invention further discloses a three-layer co-extrusion technology by the method of blown extrusion of biodegradable express delivery packaging.
- the disadvantages of these disclosures are that the PLA used is in a very small ratio, i.e. they are not based on PLA and are not based entirely on renewable sources such as polylactic acid. Copolyesters of adipic acid with 1 ,4 butanediol, terephthalic acid, dimethyl terephthalic acid and others are completely biodegradable, but the starting monomers are obtained synthetically from non-renewable sources as opposed to PLA.

- the film obtained in this way has the following physical and mechanical properties: By Machine direction (MD):
- the films and the compounds disclosed herewith ensure environmentally friendly materials, as their physical destruction and degradation are faster and more complete than conventional non-degradable plastics, which they can replace (e.g. polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.). That is, the intermediate products from the degradation, lactic acid and its short polymers, are common naturally occurring substances that are easily metabolized by a wide variety of organisms to carbon dioxide and water. Thus, PLA-based films are a desirable substitute for many conventional plastic films.
- Such applications include, but are not limited to, batteries, boxes, bottles, disposable lighters, pens and decorative items, food boxes with windows (e.g. pastries, donuts), food coatings (e.g. packaging and bags covering meat, fish and vegetables), toys, flower bags and envelopes.
- the films of the present invention may be particularly suitable for packaging food of any type.
- the components used for the production of this film have certificates for contact with food products.
- the tests have shown that there is no migration of chemicals from the film to food.
- VLM 104 2010 under test conditions: HPLC / MS / MS, 10 days, 40°C, model solution B, the values illustrated in Table 1 were obtained:
- the PLA-based films of the present invention can also be used in applications that traditionally use paper, such as envelopes and plaques.
- the films of the present invention may be particularly suitable for print applications.
- the relatively high surface tension of PLA films makes them susceptible to (printed) ink often without additional surface treatment.
- the surface energy of substantially pure polylactide films of the present invention is from 38 up to 42 dyn. This results in a surface with satisfactory printable characteristics without surface modification. In this way, inks that are generally more difficult to apply to films, such as water-based inks, can be applied directly to PLA films.
- the films, printed or otherwise, can also be produced with glue on one side to provide pressure-sensitive labels. These labels can be applied to various consumer products, such as bottles (e.g. drinks, shampoos, tubes, cans, etc.) and general packaging.
- the thickness and width of the films according to the invention can be adjusted according to well-known and used techniques and the necessities of the end customer.
- the extrusion speed can be adjusted to determine the thickness of the product.
- the pull speed is the speed at which the bubble is withdrawn through a nozzle or die; usually the higher the speed, the thinner the thickness.
- Pigments, dyes, colorants, plasticizers and other additives may also be added if necessary.
