刻な問題になっている。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, the amount of packaging plastic used has increased due to problems with the aesthetics, hygiene, and packaging and transportation of prizes. Along with this, the amount of garbage being discarded from households and factories is rapidly increasing, and the lack of land to bury the garbage has become a serious problem in areas surrounding major cities.

を引き起こしている。Conventionally, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene terephthalate, vinyl chloride, etc. have been used as such packaging plastics. However, when these are disposed of in the natural environment, they remain undecomposed due to their stability, causing problems such as damaging the landscape and contaminating the living environment of marine organisms.

For example, attempts have been made to impart degradability to materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene by blending them with starch.

。As a thermoplastic and degradable polymer,
Lactic acid and its copolymers are known. This lactic acid polymer biodegrades 100% within an animal's body within a few months to a year. Furthermore, if placed in soil or seawater, it will begin to decompose in a few weeks in a humid environment, and will disappear in about a year. The decomposition products are lactic acid, carbon dioxide, and water, all of which are harmless.

, 511, 2,683,136 contains lactic acid, lactide,
or a manufacturing method for polymerizing a mixture thereof. Polymers of lactic acid are commonly synthesized from cyclic dimers of lactic acid called lactides. If a polymer is synthesized directly from lactic acid by dehydration condensation, a high molecular weight polymer cannot be obtained even over a long period of time. On the other hand, linear polyester synthesized by ring-opening polymerization using lactide as a raw material has a high molecular weight.

However, when a solvent is used as a plasticizer, the solvent gradually evaporates while a product such as a film is stored or used, and its effectiveness is lost. Furthermore, there are problems with the safety of these solvents for products for food and medical purposes.

A method has been shown in which, when polymerizing in the presence of a catalyst, the polymerization is stopped until a small amount of lactide remains, and the remaining lactide, lactide oligomer, and lactic acid oligomer act as plasticizers and give flexibility to the polymer. .

。The plasticized polymer composition can be processed by, for example, injecting it into an extrusion mold while heating. Alternatively, a method such as dissolving it in a solvent and making it into a membrane to form a film can also be used. In order to use molded products such as films processed in this way as packaging materials, it is necessary that they have an appropriate modulus of elasticity. Usually, this value is preferably 10 to 100 kg/mm2. If it is larger than this, it is hard and tends to crack due to external force. If it is smaller than this, it is easily deformed by a small force and is not practical.
