Novel animal padding and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel animal padding and a preparation method thereof, and relates to the technical field of animal tools. The padding comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight of 500-650 parts of attapulgite, 1-3 parts of starch, 1-3 parts of a binder, 0.5-2 parts of a preservative, 0.5-2 parts of an inorganic deodorant and 150-200 parts of water. The padding product is an oblate sphere, the long diameter is 0.3-0.5 mm, the short diameter is 0.3 mm, the natural water content is smaller than or equal to 5%, the color is uniform and consistent, no obvious color difference exists, no pungent smell exists, no mildewing smell exists, and the padding product has certain water absorption capacity, heat preservation performance, bacteriostasis and deodorization functions, and is high in hardness and non-toxic. The padding disclosed by the invention is a non-agglomerated padding; and a mouse feeding experiment proves that compared with a traditional padding, the padding disclosed by the invention has a certain inhibition effect on microorganisms in excrement, the replacement frequency is low, and the use cost is remarkably reduced. The required raw material types are few, the attapulgite is used as the main component, the preparation process is simple, the cost is low, and the popularization and use are facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of animal utensils, and in particular relates to a novel animal bedding which uses attapulgite as the main raw material and adds other related materials to reduce the number of bedding replacements and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the continuous improvement of my country's economic level, the breeding scale of experimental animals and pets is constantly expanding. Statistics show that the number of pet owners in my country exceeded 73 million in 2018, and increased to 99.15 million in 2019. In the next five years, the market size of experimental animals will grow at an annual rate of 20% to 25%, and the compound annual growth rate of the pet industry will be about 13.78%. By 2023, the market size of experimental animals and pets will exceed 300 billion yuan. [0003] Based on this, with the continuous expansion of the animal equipment market, there are m...

CN1557144A discloses a kind of agglomeration type attapulgite colorful cat litter and its production process. The cat litter in this invention has bright colors, no pollution, no dust, non-toxic, tasteless, can absorb and remove peculiar smell, and will not gather when meeting water or feces. The clumping speed is fast and the price is cheap, but the characteristics of water clumping make the cat litter need to be replaced frequently and the cat litter is easy to be taken out after use by animals, making the room dirty
