preparation Embodiment 1

[0133] 100 kg of L-lactide manufactured by Purac Japan (trade name: PURASORB L) and 15 ppm of tin octoate added were charged into a 500-liter batch polymerization tank equipped with a stirrer and a heater. In the polymerization tank, after nitrogen substitution, L-lactide was polymerized at 185° C. for 60 minutes while stirring at a speed of 100 rpm. The molten product thus obtained was supplied to a parallel twin-screw extruder (manufactured by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.) having a diameter of 40 mm and including vacuum vents in three stages, and then vented at a vent pressure of 4 Torr Simultaneously with this, the product was extruded in the form of strands at 200°C. The strands are then pelletized.

[0134] The polylactic acid polymer thus obtained (hereinafter referred to as "B1") had a weight-average molecular weight of 200,000, and its L-lactic acid content was 99.5%. The melting point measured by DSC method was 171°C.

preparation Embodiment 2 and 3

[0136] 94 kg of L-lactide (trade name: PURASORB L) and 6 kg of DL-lactide (trade name: Purasorb DL), both manufactured by Purac Japan, were charged with 15 ppm of tin octoate added in a stirrer and heater in the 500-liter batch polymerization tank. In the polymerization tank, after nitrogen substitution, the mixture was polymerized at 185° C. for 60 minutes while stirring at a speed of 100 rpm. The molten product thus obtained was supplied to a parallel twin-screw extruder (manufactured by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.) having a diameter of 40 mm and including vacuum vents in three stages, and then vented at a vent pressure of 4 Torr. Simultaneously, the product was extruded in the shape of strands at 200°C. The strands are then pelletized.

[0137] The polylactic acid polymer thus obtained (hereinafter referred to as "B2") had a weight-average molecular weight of 200,000, and its L-lactic acid content was 97.0%. The melting point measured by DSC method was 168°C.

[0140] 80 kg of L-lactide (trade name: PURASORB L) and 20 kg of DL-lactide (trade name: PURASORB DL), both of which are manufactured by Purac Japan, were charged with 15 ppm of tin octoate added in a tank with a stirrer and a heater 500 liter batch type polymerization tank. In the polymerization tank, after nitrogen substitution, the mixture was polymerized at 185° C. for 60 minutes while stirring at a speed of 100 rpm. The molten product thus obtained was supplied to a parallel twin-screw extruder (manufactured by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.) having a diameter of 40 mm and including vacuum vents in three stages, and then vented at a vent pressure of 4 Torr. Simultaneously, the product was extruded in the shape of strands at 200°C. The strands are then pelletized.

[0141] The polylactic acid polymer thus obtained (hereinafter referred to as "A1") had a weight-average molecular weight of 200,000, and its L-lactic acid content was 89.7%.

Abstract

In order to provide a polylactic acid polymer composition to be thermoformed and a polylactic acid polymer sheet to be thermoformed which show good formability during thermoforming while maintaining impact resistance and heat resistance, and a thermoformed article obtained from the polylactic acid polymer sheet, according to the present invention, a polylactic acid polymer composition is used which comprises a mixture of an essentially amorphous polylactic acid polymer and a crystalline polylactic acid polymer, wherein the essentially amorphous polylactic acid polymer is present at the rate of more than 50% of the crystalline polylactic acid.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a biodegradable resin composition for thermoforming, a polylactic acid polymer sheet for thermoforming and thermoformed articles obtained therefrom. Background technique [0002] Transparent plastic blister packs, box packs formed by bending, shell pack containers, etc., which are widely used to display various kinds of goods, are usually formed by subjecting resin sheets to thermoforming such as vacuum forming, air pressure forming, or heat bending. Packaging for food such as the daily dish used in convenience stores, vegetables, sandwiches and lunches is also formed by the same thermoforming. [0003] With regard to the above-mentioned transparent plastic covers, carton packs, shell pack containers and food containers, it is especially preferred to be transparent so that the contents can be seen through it. Accordingly, many clear plastic covers are formed from sheets of polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene terephthalate...
