Description

Technical Field

[0002] Polyethylene film is widely used in food packaging, agricultural covering and other fields due to its good transparency, flexibility and processing performance. In order to meet the needs of specific application scenarios, the existing technology often gives polyethylene film antibacterial and anti-fog functions by adding antibacterial agents and anti-fog agents. For example, the existing technology usually uses zinc oxide or silver antibacterial agents, which are added to the polyethylene matrix by physical mixing or surface coating. At the same time, anti-fog agents are added to reduce the formation of water mist on the surface of the film, thereby preparing a polyethylene film with certain antibacterial and anti-fog properties.

For example, zinc oxide, with a particle size typically between 100 and 200 nanometers, has limited antimicrobial efficacy and lacks synergy with other materials. As a result, the film's antimicrobial rate is typically only 70% to 75% (against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, per GB / T31402-2015), making it difficult to meet the demands of packaging applications with strict hygiene requirements.

Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with a tensile strength of 15-20 MPa and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) with an elongation at break of 500%-600% are used to ensure film flexibility. The bio-based anti-fog agent is modified through esterification or ethoxylation to a hydrophilic functional group content of 30%-40% and dried to a moisture content of 0.08%-0.1%. The polylactic acid compatibilizer is modified through esterification to a hydroxyl value of 50-60 mgKOH / g, enhancing interfacial bonding with polyethylene. The lubricant is in granular form with a particle size of 50-100 microns and should be stored in a sealed container away from light and moisture.

[0026] The bio-based anti-fog agent is a modified polyethylene glycol derivative or a modified glyceride derivative.

[0027] Specifically, the modified polyethylene glycol derivative has a molecular weight of 2000-4000, with fatty acid groups (carbon chain length C12-C18) introduced through esterification. The hydrophilic functional group content is 30%-40%, and the addition amount is 2%-3% (weight percentage). The modified glyceride derivative is based on glyceryl monostearate (molecular weight 350-450), with ethoxy groups (content 20-25 mol / mol) introduced through ethoxylation, and the addition amount is 2%-3%. The anti-fog agent is pre-treated before mixing by drying in a vacuum oven (55-65°C, 4-6 hours) to a moisture content of 0.08%-0.1%. The anti-fog agent is stored in sealed plastic barrels, protected from light, and has a shelf life of 12 months. When mixing, first mix the anti-fog agent with low-density polyethylene and stir for 5 minutes (50 rpm) to ensure uniform dispersion and prevent air bubbles during mixing.

[0028] The mixing step adopts temperature gradient control, the mixing temperature is 180-220 degrees Celsius, the inlet temperature is 180-190 degrees Celsius, the outlet temperature is 210-220 degrees Celsius, the number of sections is 3-5, and the screw aspect ratio is 20:1 to 30:1.

[0029] Specifically, the mixing step uses temperature gradient control, with 4-5 heating zones set up, an inlet temperature of 180-190 degrees Celsius, an outlet temperature of 210-220 degrees Celsius, and a temperature difference of 10-20 degrees Celsius in each zone. The twin-screw extruder has a screw length-to-diameter ratio of 20:1 to 30:1, a screw diameter of 50-60 mm, a mixing time of 5-8 minutes, a screw speed of 100-300 revolutions per minute, and a shear rate of 50-200 revolutions per second. The temperature of the heating zone is controlled by a PLC system, with a heating power of 2-3 kW, a cooling water flow rate of 10-15 liters per minute, and a temperature accuracy of ±1 degree Celsius. Nitrogen protection is used during the mixing process, with a flow rate of 5-10 liters per minute to prevent oxidation of the raw materials. The feeding sequence is as follows: first add low-density polyethylene and linear low-density polyethylene, mix for 2-3 minutes, then add a bio-based anti-fog agent and a modified zinc oxide-graphene composite antimicrobial agent, mix for 3-4 minutes, then add a polylactic acid compatibilizer and a lubricant, and mix for 1-2 minutes. The melt is then filtered through a 100-micron pore size filter to remove impurities, and the melt temperature is controlled at 200-210 degrees Celsius to ensure uniformity.

The outer layer thickness is 15-30 microns, the inner layer thickness is 30-80 microns, and the total film thickness is 80-150 microns. The outer layer formulation contains 60%-70% low-density polyethylene (LDPE), 25%-35% linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), 2%-3% bio-based antifog agent, and 1%-2% lubricant. The inner layer formulation contains 92%-95% LDPE, 2%-4% modified zinc oxide-graphene composite antimicrobial agent, and 1%-3% polylactic acid compatibilizer. The ratio is controlled by the extruder screw speed: 30-50 rpm for the outer layer and 40-60 rpm for the inner layer. The blown film temperature is 190-230°C, the die temperature is 225-230°C, and the die gap is 1.5-2.0 mm. Cooling air volume is 300-600 cubic meters per hour, air temperature is 15-20 degrees Celsius, and cooling time is 10-15 seconds.

The speed is controlled by a variable frequency motor with a switching time of 3-5 seconds and a motor power of 5-7 kW. Speed ​​and tension data are recorded during the pulling process to monitor film surface flatness and prevent stretching deformation. The stage settings are adjusted based on film thickness and width. The first stage has a lower speed (10-15 m / min) to stabilize the film shape, while the second and third stages gradually increase the speed (15-30 m / min) to improve efficiency. The pulling roller surface is regularly polished and cleaned weekly to ensure it is free of buildup.

The mixture was then chemically vapor-deposited at 400-600°C for 2-3 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere (8-12 liters per minute). The reaction pressure was 0.1-0.2 MPa. The composite antimicrobial agent, with a particle size of 50-100 nm, was dispersed in an ethanol solution (4%-6%) and sonicated for 30-40 minutes (38-42 kHz, 200 W). The mixture was dried to a moisture content of 0.04%-0.06% and stored in a sealed container protected from light.

[0057] Comparative Example 1: The same process as Example 1 was used, except that ordinary zinc oxide (particle size 100 nm, no graphene composite, 1% addition) was used instead of the modified zinc oxide-graphene composite antimicrobial agent.

[0060] Table 1: Comparison of membrane performance of different embodiments and comparative examples

[0061] The following explains the meaning of each character (term, symbol, value) in the table one by one: serial number: Meaning: Indicates the identifier of the experimental group, used to distinguish different process conditions.

[0062] Specific content: Example 1: The minimum data version of the process of the present invention is adopted, which includes 4 innovative points (modified zinc oxide-graphene antibacterial agent, mixing temperature gradient control, dynamic adjustment of the three-layer ratio, and segmented control of the pulling speed). The formula is 80% low-density polyethylene, 1% antibacterial agent, and a film thickness of 0.05 mm, representing the minimum parameters (such as the minimum temperature of 180 degrees Celsius and the blow-up ratio of 2.0).

[0063] Comparative Example 1: The formula and film thickness are the same as those in Example 1, but the four innovative points are not adopted. Ordinary zinc oxide (particle size 100 nm), a constant mixing temperature of 200 degrees Celsius, a fixed ratio of 1:1, and a constant pulling speed of 15 meters per minute are used, representing a conventional process.

[0064] Example 2: The highest data version of the process of the present invention, with a formula of 74% low-density polyethylene, 2% antibacterial agent, and a film thickness of 0.25 mm, represents the highest parameters (such as a maximum temperature of 220 degrees Celsius and a blow-up ratio of 3.0).

[0065] Comparative Example 2: The formula and film thickness are the same as those in Example 2, but the four innovative points are removed and ordinary zinc oxide (particle size 200 nm) is used.

[0066] Example 3: An intermediate data version of the process of the present invention, with a formula of 78% low-density polyethylene, 1.5% antibacterial agent, and a film thickness of 0.15 mm, representing intermediate parameters (such as a temperature of 215 degrees Celsius and a blow-up ratio of 2.5).

[0067] Comparative Example 3: The formula and film thickness are the same as those in Example 3, but the four innovative points are removed and ordinary zinc oxide (particle size 150 nm) is used.

[0068] Film thickness deviation (%): Meaning: Indicates the uniformity of film thickness, measuring the deviation percentage of film thickness relative to the target thickness (± value). The smaller the value, the more uniform the film thickness and the higher the quality.

[0069] Unit: Percentage (%), indicating the ratio of the deviation to the target thickness.

[0070] Test basis: Conforms to (film thickness deviation ±1.3% to 1.7%), using a standard thickness tester (such as GB / T6672-2001, plastic film thickness measurement).

[0071] Specific values: Example 1: ±1.3%: The film thickness deviation is minimal, indicating that the lowest data version (film thickness 0.05 mm) achieves extremely high uniformity through innovations (such as gradient temperature and dynamic ratio).

[0072] Comparative Example 1: ±2.0%: The deviation is higher than that of Example 1. The lack of innovation (such as fixed ratio and no segmented traction) leads to uneven melt flow.

[0073] Example 2: ±1.7%: The highest data version (thickness 0.25 mm), the deviation is slightly higher but still within the range, reflecting that the thicker film still maintains good uniformity.

[0074] Comparative Example 2: ±2.5%: The deviation is the highest. Due to the lack of innovative support, the uniformity of the thick film (0.25 mm) is significantly reduced.

[0075] Example 3: ±1.5%: Intermediate data version (thickness 0.15 mm), moderate deviation, excellent uniformity.

[0076] Comparative Example 3: ±2.3%: The deviation is relatively high, reflecting the limitations of the conventional process at intermediate thicknesses.

[0077] Antibacterial rate (%): Meaning: Indicates the film's ability to inhibit bacteria (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus), calculated as the percentage of bacterial reduction. A higher value indicates a stronger antibacterial performance.

[0078] Unit: Percentage (%), indicating the reduction ratio of the number of surviving bacteria relative to the initial number of bacteria.

[0079] Test basis: With reference to the national standard GB / T31402-2015 (Test for Antimicrobial Properties of Plastics), determined by the colony count method, which is not clearly specified in the previous article but is relevant to modified zinc oxide-graphene antimicrobial agents.

[0080] Numerical setting: The antibacterial rate of the embodiment is 90% to 95% due to the use of modified zinc oxide-graphene antibacterial agent (particle size 20-50 nanometers, mass ratio 1:1 to 3:1, synergistically enhanced antibacterial effect); the antibacterial rate of the comparative example is 70% to 75% due to the use of ordinary zinc oxide (particle size 100-200 nanometers, no graphene synergy).

[0081] Specific values: Example 1: 90%: The lowest antibacterial agent content (1%) still achieves a high antibacterial rate due to the modified zinc oxide-graphene composite antibacterial agent and uniform dispersion.

[0082] Comparative Example 1: 70%: Ordinary zinc oxide has low antibacterial efficacy, large particle size and poor dispersibility.

[0083] Example 2: 95%: The highest antimicrobial agent content (2%) and optimized process (such as gradient mixing) improve the antimicrobial effect.

[0084] Comparative Example 2: 75%: Even with a high content (2%) of ordinary zinc oxide, the effect is limited due to the lack of graphene synergy.

[0085] Example 3: 93%: Intermediate antibacterial agent content (1.5%), the antibacterial rate is moderate but better than the comparative example.

[0086] Comparative Example 3: 72%: Ordinary zinc oxide has poor antibacterial performance.

[0087] Anti-fog duration (days): Meaning: Indicates the number of days the film maintains its anti-fog effect under specific conditions (cold fog method, 25 degrees Celsius, 90% relative humidity). The longer the time, the longer the anti-fog performance.

[0088] Unit: Day, represents the time from the start of the test to the appearance of atomization.

[0089] Test basis: Refer to GB / T4456-2008 (Polyethylene Blown Film for Packaging), using the cold mist method to test anti-fog agent migration and surface effect. This is not clearly specified in the previous article, but is related to bio-based anti-fog agents (2% to 3%) and dynamic ratio adjustment.

[0090] Numerical setting: The anti-fog duration of the embodiment is 15-20 days, due to the optimization of the anti-fog agent distribution by dynamic ratio adjustment; the duration of the comparative example is 8-10 days, due to the uneven distribution of the anti-fog agent caused by the fixed ratio.

[0091] Specific values: Example 1: 15 days: Lowest antifog agent content (2%), with dynamic proportioning and gradient mixing to ensure long-lasting antifog performance.

[0092] Comparative Example 1: 8 days: Fixed ratio 1:1, uneven distribution of anti-fog agent and short duration.

[0093] Example 2: 20 days: The highest antifogging agent content (3%) and optimized process (such as high blow-up ratio 3.0) extend the antifogging time.

[0094] Comparative Example 2: 10 days: Fixed ratio limits the effectiveness of the antifog agent.

[0095] Example 3: 18 days: intermediate antifog agent content (2.5%), balanced antifog performance.

[0096] Comparative Example 3: 9 days: The conventional process has poor anti-fog durability.

[0097] symbol: ± (film thickness deviation): indicates the deviation range, such as "±1.3%" means that the film thickness fluctuates within ±1.3% of the target value (e.g. the target is 50 microns, the actual value is 48.35-51.65 microns).

[0098] % (film thickness deviation, antibacterial rate): percentage, film thickness deviation is the thickness deviation ratio, and antibacterial rate is the bacterial reduction ratio.

[0099] (Days) (Anti-fog duration): Time unit, indicating the number of days the anti-fog effect lasts.

[0100] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
