Definitions
- the present invention is located in the field of the plastics industry, particularly in the composites or reinforced plastics industry, in its facet of biodegradable plastics. It consists of both the product obtained and the process to prepare a composite consisting of: thermoplastic polymers, containing coconut husk, corn starch, oxo-degradative additives, as well as other additives incorporated into the polymer matrix, to increase the mechanical properties of the resulting composite, compared to those of the original thermoplastic, and also give it the characteristic of being biodegradable.
- Composites are synthetic materials that form a heterogeneous mixture, which nevertheless presents such consistency, which forms a solid material of suitable properties for use in utilitarian parts.
- a composite consists of two types of components: cohesion and reinforcement.
- the cohesion components wrap and join the reinforcement components (or simply reinforcements) rigidly maintaining their position within the cohesion material.
- This combination of materials imparts to the composite mechanical properties significantly superior to those of the raw materials from which it comes.
- the adobe, formed by clay and straw is the oldest composite we know, even today it is still used in the construction of houses. In a macroscopic view, clay (cohesion material) differs from straw (reinforcement), but the heterogeneous mixture has better mechanical properties than its respective components.
- individual Another clear example is found in concrete reinforced with corrugated steel.
- thermoplastic system The homogeneous mixture of thermoplastic polymers, whether homopolymers or copolymers, with a variety of additives that modify their properties, is known as thermoplastic system.
- thermoplastic system The homogeneous mixture of a thermoplastic system with reinforcement of the coconut shell is a composite, in which the cohesion component is the thermoplastic system and the reinforcement of the coconut shell.
- polymers have been generated from natural sources, particularly vegetables, such as polylactic acid, but to date, for various reasons, their production has not been able to displace traditional polymers and they are not manufactured. Foamed with them.
- Another option that has also been addressed is the modification or formulation of the polymers to reduce the impact that their accumulation on the environment causes, through granting them degradation characteristics by environmental factors such as: solar radiation, temperature, humidity and microbiological activity.
- additives have been created that favor the degradation of polymers by the mechanisms already mentioned, being a group of them called oxo-degrantes.
- This process requires oxygen so it does not occur under anaerobic conditions.
- the degradation process can be regulated to periods of 2 to 3 years, something suitable for the needs of the end user of a product, such as plastic bags, so that the object is not useless even before being used in the desired application, if not until it is disposed of in the trash, avoiding significant economic losses.
- What happens when placing the polymer system containing the oxo-degradative additive in the garbage is the breaking of the chains that make up the polymer reducing the molecular weight and returning to the shorter molecules and with the presence of coconut shell powder and of cornstarch, the composite is capable of developing and promoting the growth of microorganisms, both on its surface and in foam bubbles, which will eventually degrade the plastic.
- aliphatic polyhydroxy carboxylic acid means an aliphatic acid having one or more hydroxyl groups and one or more carboxyl groups.
- aliphatic dihydroxy monocarboxylic acids such as glyoxylic and glyceric acid
- polycarboxylic monohydroxy acids such as eric, arabic or manic acid
- monohydroxy polycarboxylic acids such as methyl acid
- dihydroxy dicarboxylic acids such as tartaric acid.
- these additives may include calcium oxide and other relevant additives.
- Some of the trademarks of oxo-degrading additives described in the previous paragraph are: Envirocare® from Ciba Specialty Chemicals, Addiflex® from Add-X Biotech AB, TDPA® from EPI Environmental Technologies and Celspan® from Phoenix Plastics, and It is particularly preferred in the present invention.
- WO 2009/087425 describes the production of scented garbage bags and containing oxo-degrading additives and antibacterial agents to give it degradability and better control over the bacterial population that can grow in the garbage.
- they only use the oxo-degradative additive as a promoter of their degradation. Therefore, it is desirable to have a better system for promoting and controlling the degradation of plastic products such as the present invention.
- agave wastes and oxo-degrading additives are used, but it does not imply the use of coconut shell, and The fibers they use retain only mechanical properties, they do not increase them, as is the case with our invention.
- Figure 1 is a graph showing the Young Module Variation
- Figure 2 is a graph showing the Weight variation by biodegradation
- the coconut shell is dried by some conventional method, such as drying in the sun, by lots in trays with forced circulation, infrared radiation, under vacuum, in continuous rotary dryer, continuous drying tunnels and others, known in the industry and described in the technical literature widely.
- the shell dries, its size is reduced either in a conventional hammer mill, one with rotating balls, or one with blades, all of them with an exit mesh 70 or smaller.
- the powder obtained cannot be mixed spontaneously with thermoplastic polymers because it has hydrophilic polar characteristics that make it superficially incompatible with thermoplastics, which have non-polar hydrophobic characteristics, given the above, the use of coupling agents or compatibilizers is necessary, improving even more the properties of the composite, being able to use those that are available in the market. It is possible to employ dispersing agents, which reduce energy between dissimilar phases for better mixing and obtaining a uniform composition in the resulting compound. In this sense, stearic acid and metal stearates of calcium, magnesium, zinc are typical examples.
- High temperature mixing is best performed in a twin-screw extruder of the types known in the plastics industry, without the obstacle of using a single-screw extruder suitable for mixing.
- the components of the mixture are mixed in a convenient mixer such as those widely known in the plastics industry: One or more homopolymers, instead one or more copolymers, or a combination of homopolymers and copolymers, all thermoplastic of any nature ; the usual additives in polymer systems, such as pigments, stabilizers, antioxidants, dispersants, fillers, compatibilizers, etc., the oxo-degradative additive and coconut shell powder.
- This mixture is fed to the extruder, which melts the polymer and thanks to its mixing capacity, generates the composite, in the form of a cylindrical profile that is subsequently cut, forming pellets that can be used to make the foaming.
- the foamed product it is possible to use two different methods: The first consists of incorporating wet corn starch and a foaming agent such as azo di carbonamide into any commercial mixing equipment, or any other available in the market.
- the second method consists in injecting a gas into the equipment where the desired foamed product is being manufactured, feeding the equipment the wet corn starch mixed with the already prepared pellets.
- the polymeric system may be formed by one or more homopolymers, instead one or more copolymers, or a combination of homopolymers and copolymers, all of them thermoplastic of any nature, virgin or recycled, in solid state or in solution or in emulsion.
- additives are the usual ones in polymer systems already backed by use, such as dispersants, pigments, fillers, humectants, rheology modifiers, compatibilizers, coupling agents, plasticizers, stabilizers, antioxidants, etc.
- any thermoplastic system and any foaming system can be used, provided that it is necessarily used wet starch, coconut shell powder of any mesh and an oxo-degrading additive in any proportion, within the ranges mentioned above, regarding the polymer system.
- the composites obtained with coconut shell powder have better mechanical properties than their corresponding polymer systems, such as larger Flexion and Young's modules.
- both cases it can be seen that between 30% and 40% by weight of coconut shell compared to the polymer system, in this case pure high density polyethylene (HDPE), provides a notable increase in both modules.
- the mixture of HDPE and coconut shell powder was carried out in a Leistritz double spindle extruder model MICRO 27 GI / GG 32D, running with 27 mm diameter spindles with integrated gear, the processing temperature was a ramp from 170 ° C to 200 ° C at the exit of the extruder, the spindle speed was 260 rev / min.
- the composite was pelletized and then obtained by pressing specimens for the performance of mechanical tests, the processed pellets were dried for 48 hours at 60 ° C in a temperature controlled oven, this to remove the moisture that the material obtained during processing cooling.
- a Schwabethan Polystad 200 T brand thermo-compression press with controlled temperature and pressure was used to Prepare the specimens for tensile tests.
- the same extruder to which the composite pellets were mixed with the wet starch and with azo di carbonamide (ADC) was fed to manufacture the foam, obtaining a profile 1 cm thick by 5 cm wide, from which they cut 10 cm long specimens for biodegradability tests.
- HDPE High density polyethylene
- the HDPE used was PADMEX 65050 from Pemex and the azo di carbonamide from Akzo Nobel.
- the proportions of each component may range as follows:
- the tests were carried out with 140 specimens, 28 of each system, according to ISO 14855-2, which is a composting test with activated sludge.
- the test consists of submerging the already weighed specimens in the activated sludge prepared according to the standard, and removing them at certain times, in this case, by previous results, a year divided into 4 parts was chosen, in each period 7 specimens are removed of each composting system, they are washed and dried for 72 hours at 50 ° C in a drying oven, weighed and averaged, discarding the specimens with drastic variations in weight, which could be due to inhomogeneities or ruptures.
