Abstract

PURPOSE:To preserve a plant in an original state while preventing curling and destruction of leaves in a dry condition by making a live plant draw up an aqueous solution of curable substance and curing the curable substance to insolubilize the substance in water. CONSTITUTION:A plant is made to draw up an aqueous solution of a curable substance such as polyethylene glycol methacrylate containing one or more humectants selected from preferably glycerin, propylene glycol and polyethylene glycol and a dyestuff to change color of plant and the curable substance is cured and insolubilized in water so that the cured substance is formed and fixed in plant tissue and especially strength of leaves is increased. Since the cured substance is water-insoluble and does not evolve from the plant, leaves will neither curl nor get destructible even under a dry condition and the plant is preservable in an original state.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, as a method for preserving plants, methods of drying and preserving plants such as pressed leaves, pressed flowers, and dried flowers have been used. However, according to these methods,
The plants had lost their original freshness, and were also difficult to handle because they were dry and fragile.

However, the above method still had drawbacks. for example,
Under dry conditions like indoors during the Japanese winter,
Glycerin dissipates outside the plant, resulting in no moisturizing effect (
This causes problems such as the leaves of plants becoming curled or easily destroyed.

In view of these circumstances, the present invention has been developed to
It is an object of the present invention to provide a processing method that can preserve plants in their native form without causing the leaves to curl up or become easily destroyed.

In order to solve the above problem, the plant preservation treatment method according to the present invention involves making a living plant absorb an aqueous solution of a curable substance, and then hardening the curable substance within the plant to make it insoluble in water. It is intended to do so.

The curable substance used in this invention is not particularly limited as long as it is water-soluble before curing but becomes water-insoluble after curing, but examples include polyethylene glycol methacrylate (PEGMA) etc. In particular, polyethylene glycol methacrylate also has hygroscopicity (moisturizing properties), so it is preferable for maintaining the natural texture such as the freshness of leaves of plants after treatment. Polyethylene glycol methacrylate is available with various molecular weights, but those with an average molecular weight of #250 or more are particularly desirable. If the molecular weight is too small, the number of functional groups per unit amount of plants will increase, so when cured,
This is because the degree of hardening is too high, giving the plant a hardness that is not naturally present.

Furthermore, from the viewpoint of processability, it is desirable to use one with an average molecular weight of #500 or less. This is because if the molecular weight is too large, uptake into plants will be poor.

The method for preserving plants according to the present invention mainly consists of a step of sucking up an aqueous solution of the curable substance into the plant, and a step of curing the curable substance within the plant, and is not particularly limited. However, for example, it can be done as follows.

First, a living plant whose roots, etc. have been cut, is immersed in the aqueous solution of the curable substance from the cut end, and the plant is allowed to suck up the aqueous solution of the curable substance by a sap flow that utilizes water transpiration from the leaves.

At this time, if necessary, a polymerization initiator, humectant, pigment, etc. may be added in advance to the aqueous solution of the curable substance. The polymerization initiator is not particularly limited, but includes, for example, peroxides such as potassium persulfate. Examples of the humectant include, but are not limited to, glycerin, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like, and these can be used alone or in combination. The dye is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to use one that is less adsorbed to cellulose, and examples thereof include tartrazine, patent blue (2), and newcoccin, which are sometimes used as food additives.

Similarly, in order to improve the efficiency of the wicking process, the amount of water in the aqueous solution of the curable substance should be 50% by weight of the entire aqueous solution.
The content is preferably above, and more preferably 70 to 80% by weight, but is not limited thereto.

On the other hand, the concentration of the hardening substance is not particularly limited (it varies depending on the tree species to be used. For example, in the case of trees with hard leaves such as oaks and camellias, the concentration of the hardening substance is high. However, in the case of soft leaves such as maples and flowering plants, in order to maintain the original texture (softness) of the leaves of these plants, it is preferable that the concentration of the hardening substance is low. This is usually done under artificial lighting and at room temperature, although this is not always the case.

If this is done while the plants are exposed to direct sunlight or at high temperatures such as in a greenhouse, the hardening reaction of the hardening substance will progress too much and the plants will wither and die before the preservation process is completed. This is because there is. Furthermore, if the siphoning step is performed under dark conditions, the activity of the plant cells becomes inactive and the siphoning speed becomes slow, which is not preferable.

The processing time for the suction step varies depending on the processing conditions, but it generally takes about 4 days. This is because, if the treatment time is this long, it can be assumed that the water in the original plant has been replaced by the aqueous solution of the curable substance. Note that, if a trace amount of sugar or a commercially available flower freshness preservative is added to the aqueous solution of the curable substance in advance, the processability will be improved.

In this way, after impregnating the plant with the aqueous solution of the curable substance, the curable substance is cured within the plant to make it insoluble in water, thereby obtaining the desired preserved plant. The curing method at this time is not particularly limited, but is usually carried out by heating.

The curing temperature must not destroy the natural morphology of the plants to be treated, and varies depending on the type of curable substance used, but for example, if the curable substance is polyethylene glycol methacrylate, a temperature of around 60°C is appropriate. It is. The curing temperature of the curable substance can be set by appropriately selecting the type of polymerization initiator. For example, in order to cure polyethylene glycol methacrylate as a curable substance at around 60°C, potassium persulfate may be used as a polymerization initiator.
[For use] After a living plant absorbs an aqueous solution of a curable substance, the curable substance is cured within the plant to become insoluble in water, and the cured substance is generated and fixed in the plant tissue. In particular, the strength of plant leaves increases, and since the cured product is insoluble in water and does not dissipate outside the plant, even under dry conditions,
This allows plants to be preserved in their native form without the leaves curling up and becoming susceptible to destruction.
