Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polylactic acid films, and in particular relates to a production method of a biaxially stretched polylactic acid film. Background Art

[0002] PLA has good barrier properties and transparency, but its low thermal stability and inherent brittleness limit its application. At the same time, the excellent performance of PLA is related to its crystal structure, morphology and crystallinity, and its molding method will affect the crystallization behavior, which in turn affects the performance of PLA film products. Zhu Ziwei introduced the compatibilizer Joncry4468 to toughen and modify PLA with polyamide 11 (PA11), and prepared PLA / PA11 / Joncry4468 (mass ratio of 78.4 / 20 / 1.6) cast film by extrusion and unidirectional and bidirectional stretching. Chen Zhiping et al. used 1%~3.5% of a specific structure ester quaternary ammonium salt (the ester group and long-chain alkyl contained make the ester quaternary ammonium salt have good compatibility with PLA) and 96.5%~99% PLA as raw materials, and obtained an antistatic BOPLA film with good optical properties by blending the prepared antistatic masterbatch with PLA. Li et al.

[27] modified PLA with 3% pyromellitic anhydride (PMDA) and 3% pentaerythritol glycidyl ether (PGE) to produce long-chain branched PLA (LCB-PLA), and compared the physical properties of LCB-PLA and pure PLA films after biaxial stretching. The above production methods are complex and costly. Therefore, those skilled in the art are in urgent need of developing a production method for biaxially stretched polylactic acid film to meet the existing market demand and performance requirements.
