Embodiment 1

[0022] A method for solvent-free catalytic degradation of polylactic acid, comprising the following steps:

[0023] 1) Get 10g of polylactic acid and 0.5g of palladium-carbon catalyst into a 100ml reactor, feed hydrogen to replace the air in the reactor, then feed 4MPa hydrogen, and seal the reactor. Turn on the mechanical stirring and control the stirring speed to 500RPM, then raise the temperature to 270°C at a rate of 6°C / min, and react at 270°C for 12 hours.

[0024] 2) Step 1) After the reaction is completed, cool to room temperature, then open the reaction vessel, collect samples, and separate the residual solid and palladium-carbon catalyst by centrifugation to obtain a liquid product, which is transparent.

[0025] The liquid product was dissolved in dichloromethane solvent, and an internal standard (cyclohexanol) was added, and the liquid product component and content were determined by GC-FID analysis (see figure 1 ), wherein ethyl lactate, ethyl propionate, ethanol...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of biodegradable materials recycling, in particular to a method for solvent-free catalytic degradation of polylactic acid, comprising the following steps: 1) placing polylactic acid and a metal hydrogenation catalyst in a reactor, and passing hydrogen into the reactor to remove it After neutralizing the air, add 2-6MPa hydrogen, seal the reactor, heat up under stirring conditions, and react at 200-300°C for 3-48 hours; 2) After the reaction is completed, cool to room temperature, open the reactor, and centrifuge to separate the remaining The solid and metal hydrogenation catalysts were collected to obtain liquid products. The invention converts polylactic acid into high-value low-molecular chemicals such as ethyl lactate, ethyl propionate, ethanol and sec-butyl propionate through a one-step solvent-free catalytic hydrogenation reaction, and realizes efficient degradation of waste polylactic acid at the same time , to achieve high-value utilization of waste polylactic acid resources.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of recycling of biodegradable materials, in particular to a method for catalytically degrading polylactic acid without solvent. Background technique [0002] Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable material, which can be obtained through the reaction of starch in renewable plant resources (such as corn, cassava, etc.) as a raw material. Polylactic acid has good thermal stability and good solvent resistance, and can be processed in various ways, such as extrusion, spinning, biaxial stretching, and injection blow molding. In addition to being biodegradable, products made of polylactic acid have very good biocompatibility, gloss, transparency, feel and heat resistance, and also have certain bacteria resistance, flame retardancy and UV resistance. Therefore, polylactic acid has a wide range of uses and can be used as packaging materials, fibers and nonwovens. It has been widely used in clothing (underwear, out...
