Description of the Invention (1 The present invention is about two-step acoustic polymerization of lactose @intent to become polylactide. More specifically, this invention is about a method, In the two-step process, polymerization is carried out to a high conversion rate under the conditions of avoiding the mixing of M-body and the evaporation of lactose vinegar. In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to biodegradable polymers, that is, biochemicals. I Wang ^ Marketed packaging materials, hygienic product bags, films for agricultural purposes and bags for waste, etc., in particular. Various films are of great importance. To date, polymers using lactic acid have been used in these applications. This aspect is limited by the high price of these polymers and their susceptibility to cracking in the technical processing room. Jumei can be prepared through polycondensation, which is typical when preparing polyacetate or through ring-opening polymerization from cyclic lactones. It is prepared. Polyhydroxy acid is a thermoplastic polyester, which is similar to many conventional polymers. The second round, the reason for the meaning of the ester or the polycondensate based on lactic acid is particularly noticeable, because Its main degradation product, lactic acid is in fact universal-a product that is non-toxic and widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Polymers of molecular weight can be best produced through ring-opening polymerization of inbreeding. Lactic acid: optical activity , And therefore, its dimer appears in four different forms: -milk X ester, D, D-Lactation S purpose, LD-51 奁 two daggers, + 卞 rolling human g day (mesolactide) & amp l, l and D, D-lactate racemic crystals. By polymerizing these to become pure compounds or polymerizing at different blending ratios, the polymers obtained have different stereochemical structures that affect their elasticity and crystallinity, And for this reason, it also affects its mechanical and thermal properties. The polymers obtained are usually hard and optically bright. Ring-opening polymerization of cyclic internal vinegars of hydroxy acids, such as lactolactone, glycolic acid, ε-hexane Internal vinegar constitutes well-known industrial technology as far as it is concerned.

In previously known techniques, it is typically high in residual lactide concentration, which hinders hydrate < processing, and in addition, its removal causes additional costs. The object of the present invention is to find a method for polymerizing lactide, preferably to achieve a conversion rate close to the theoretical maximum. The rate of polymerization of lactide is based on many factors, such as the initiator used?丨 Hair agent concentration, polymerization temperature and lactide concentration. When the lactide concentration is higher than 30% by weight, the polymerization rate is noticeably based on the lactide concentration. Within this range, at the polymerization temperature generally used, the viscosity of the polymer-lactide blend is also quite low. Therefore, the polymerization can be carried out at the desired polymerization temperature in a stirred reactor. get on. During the development of the salty process, it was observed that an advantageous method of polymerizing to a concentration of up to about 30% by weight of milk is a reactive pressure-polymerization, in which monomers and catalysts are continuously fed into an extruder. Within the relevant lactide concentration and temperature ranges, the 'monomer rapid polymerization typically reaches a 30% by weight conversion in about 2 minutes. Surprisingly, it has been observed that in order to polymerize lactide to high conversion and low lactide concentration, it is best to carry out further polymerization in a device and place. In this device, the polymer melt is transferred without material transfer.
