Problems solved by technology

[0002] Polylactic acid and its copolymers are important biodegradable materials, which are mainly obtained by ring-opening polymerization of lactide (the tensile strength of polylactic acid is generally about 50MPa, and the elongation at break is about 4%; due to plasticization or With the addition of hydrophilic components, the tensile strength of the copolymer will be greatly reduced), but the purification of lactide requires a large amount of organic solvent recrystallization, resulting in expensive synthesis (generally used as a polylactic acid masterbatch for plastics) The price of polylactic acid and its copolymers used as medicine is as high as hundreds of thousands per kilogram)
It is an effective method to reduce costs by using low-priced fillers and polylactic acid and its copolymers to form composite materials, while maintaining the degradation of polylactic acid and its copolymer composites, but the disadvantage is that the mechanics The performance is difficult to meet the requirements of engineering plastics or general-purpose plastics
G.H Yew et al. reported that the composite material formed by polylactic acid and starch has good biodegradability and water absorption, but its mechanical properties decrease with the increase of starch content, and the tensile strength of polylactic acid without starch is 57.8MPa , the elongation at break is 3.8%; while the tensile strength of polylactic acid added with 50% starch is 30.6MPa, the elongation at break is only 1.7% (Polymer Degradation and Stability 2005; 90:488-500)
