Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of biodegradable materials, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a dual-functional modified calcium carbonate with compatibilization and reinforcement effects and application of the dual-functional modified calcium carbonate in polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT). BACKGROUND

[0002] Traditional plastic products have brought convenience and high-end value to people's life due to their stable chemical properties, but in recent years, the increasingly serious environmental problem of plastic pollution has attracted global attention. In recent years, polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) as a new biodegradable material widely concerned on the market has attracted the attention of enterprises and researchers. Polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) has good ductility, toughness and elasticity due to the aliphatic chain segment (BA segment) and aromatic chain segment (BT segment) in the molecular chain. However, the current polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) has the disadvantages of high production cost and poor thermodynamic performance, which limits its large-scale use. Therefore, the main goal of the current research work is to reduce the production cost of polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) composite material and improve its comprehensive performance and broaden its application range.

[0003] Calcium carbonate has the advantages of low cost, high whiteness, low hardness and low oil absorption, and is often used as an inorganic filler in polymer modification to increase the size stability, rigidity, heat resistance and other properties of the material. However, the surface of calcium carbonate is hydrophilic and oleophobic, and when it is blended with polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), the two phases have poor compatibility due to the large difference in polarity. In order to disperse calcium carbonate uniformly in the polymer matrix, improve the compatibility between calcium carbonate and the polymer matrix, increase the filling amount of calcium carbonate in the polymer and improve the processing and mechanical properties of the composite material, effective modification process and modifier must be used to modify the surface of calcium carbonate so that it can play a good toughening and reinforcing role as a filler. Moreover, the modified calcium carbonate has low production cost and high mechanical properties when blended with polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), which has great research value.

[0004] At present, the commonly used calcium carbonate surface modifier mainly can be divided into coupling agent class, surface active agent class, composite modifier class, super dispersant class and inorganic matter class and so on. Patent CN115124827A adds coupling agent with calcium carbonate, degradable polymer prepolymer, mixes under high speed stirring, and then cools and stirs to obtain modified calcium carbonate, but the conventional silane coupling agent has few hydroxyl groups, it is difficult to react with calcium carbonate, and the coupling agent which can successfully modify calcium carbonate is high in price, and it is difficult to produce on a large scale in industry. The modified calcium carbonate in patent CN117264382A is calcium carbonate modified by hydrophobic modifier stearic acid and calcium stearate. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to solve the problems of low strength and poor compatibility of calcium carbonate, and realize that after blending of polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), the processing performance and mechanical properties of the composite material are significantly improved, the application provides a preparation method of dual-functional modified calcium carbonate with compatibilization and reinforcement.

[0086] Table 1. Activation rate and contact angle test

[0087]

[0088]

[0089] This invention tested the activation rate and contact angle of calcium carbonate, 4-aminomethylbenzoic acid-calcium carbonate, and folic acid-4-aminomethylbenzoic acid-calcium carbonate samples. The results are shown in Table 1. Compared with calcium carbonate, the activation rate and contact angle of the 4-aminomethylbenzoic acid-calcium carbonate and folic acid-4-aminomethylbenzoic acid-calcium carbonate samples were increased. The folic acid-4-aminomethylbenzoic acid-calcium carbonate sample had the highest contact angle and activation rate, reaching 137.5° and 99.10%, respectively. With the modification of calcium carbonate, the hydrophobicity of the folic acid-4-aminomethylbenzoic acid-calcium carbonate sample increased, resulting in poor compatibility with water. The surface properties of the two samples became opposite, and the contact angle of the calcium carbonate sample gradually increased with modification.

[0091]

[0092] The polybutylene terephthalate sample, the polybutylene terephthalate / calcium carbonate sample, the polybutylene terephthalate / 4-aminomethyl benzoic acid-calcium carbonate sample and the polybutylene terephthalate / folic acid-4-aminomethyl benzoic acid-calcium carbonate sample are subjected to contact angle test, and the results are shown in Table 2. Compared with the pure polybutylene terephthalate, the contact angle of the polybutylene terephthalate / folic acid-4-aminomethyl benzoic acid-calcium carbonate sample is increased from 78.54° to 94.60°, and the folic acid-4-aminomethyl benzoic acid-calcium carbonate can effectively improve the compatibility between the two phases of the composite material.

[0093] Table 3 mechanical property test

[0094]

[0095]

[0096] The polybutylene terephthalate sample, the polybutylene terephthalate / calcium carbonate sample, the polybutylene terephthalate / 4-aminomethyl benzoic acid-calcium carbonate sample and the polybutylene terephthalate / folic acid-4-aminomethyl benzoic acid-calcium carbonate sample are subjected to mechanical property test, and the results are shown in Table 3. As shown in Table 3, the polybutylene terephthalate / folic acid-4-aminomethyl benzoic acid-calcium carbonate sample has the best tensile strength, which can reach 30.36Mpa at the maximum. When the polybutylene terephthalate is directly blended with calcium carbonate, the interfacial compatibility of the polybutylene terephthalate and calcium carbonate is poor, stress concentration and crack phenomenon occur in the film during the tensile process, and thus the mechanical properties, especially the toughness of the material, are greatly reduced. However, after the addition of folic acid-4-aminomethyl benzoic acid-calcium carbonate, the tensile strength of the material is significantly improved, and the reason is that the compatibility of the polybutylene terephthalate and calcium carbonate is improved, and the tensile strength is improved.
