Embodiment

[0107] The natural fiber reinforced polylactic acid resin composition according to the embodiment includes the following components:

[0108] (1) Polylactic acid resin

[0109] 4032D produced by NatureWorks, Inc., USA was used as the L-polylactic acid resin. D,D-lactide manufactured by Purac Corporation was polymerized to provide a D-polylactic acid resin having a weight average molecular weight of 50000 g / mol.

[0110] (2) Natural fiber

[0111] It is produced from hemp and has a cellulose component content of 98% by weight, an average length of 5 mm, and an average diameter of 10 μm.

preparation example 1

[0114] The masterbatch is prepared by adding dried hemp to the reactor, followed by ring-opening polymerization of D,D-lactide monomer produced by Purac.

[0115] During ring-opening polymerization, hemp and D,D-lactide monomers were mixed in a batch mixing device at 180°C for 5 minutes and extruded with a twin-screw extruder attached to the mixing device to provide pellets. D,D-lactide monomer and hemp were used in a 1:1 weight ratio in the final dipped product.

[0116]At this time, the catalyst used for polymerization included stannous octoate and triphenylphosphine in the same molar ratio. In the impregnated product, D-polylactic acid resin obtained by adding D,D-lactide monomer in an amount of 500 mol based on 1 mol of the catalyst and natural fiber was present in a weight ratio of 1:1.

[0117] Vacuum drying was performed at 100°C to remove unreacted monomer from the mixture of polymer, monomer and natural fibers.

preparation example 2

[0119] The masterbatch was prepared by adding D-polylactic acid resin and natural fibers into a batch mixing device at a weight ratio of 1:1 and then melt mixing.

Abstract

Disclosed is a natural fiber-reinforced polylactic acid resin composition that includes (A) a first polylactic acid resin; and (B) a natural fiber surface-treated with a second polylactic acid resin. The second polylactic acid resin can include a different isomer from the first polylactic acid resin, or alternatively, when measured under isothermal conditions after quenching from about 240 DEG C to a crystallization temperature, a spherulite crystal is first formed at a surface of the natural fiber and the growth rate at the surface is faster than at other positions. A molded product made using the natural fiber-reinforced polylactic acid resin composition is also disclosed.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority and benefit to Korean Patent Applications 10-2008-0114242 and 10-2009-0109968 filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on November 17, 2008 and November 13, 2009, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference here. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a natural fiber-reinforced polylactic acid resin composition and a molded article made using the composition. Background technique [0004] Much research has been done on the development of tough and safe polymeric materials for specific purposes. [0005] However, since waste polymers have been recognized as a serious environmental problem throughout the world, there is a need to develop environmentally friendly polymer materials. Environmentally friendly polymers can be mainly classified into photodegradable and biodegradable polymers. Biodegradable polymers have functional groups that can b...
