AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent describes a new type of resin made of paramylon, which has excellent mechanical properties and is easy to mold. The invention also includes a method for making this resin. The technical effects of this innovation are improved performance and flexibility in the production of molded articles.

Problems solved by technology

However, since conventional bioplastics are made of edible components such as starch as raw materials, in view of concerns about food shortages in the future, the development of new bioplastics using non-edible plant components as raw materials is required.
Further, since it has a large number of hydroxy groups, which are hydrophilic groups, water absorption is high and water resistance is low.
Further, since only a short chain organic group such as an acetyl group is insufficient in thermoplasticity and water resistance, in addition to a short chain organic group, a long chain organic group having a larger number of carbon atoms has been introduced into cellulose.

example 1

[0198]By treating the raw paramylon with an aqueous hydrochloric acid solution, paramylon 1 having an adjusted molecular weight was obtained. Next, paramylon 1 was acylated in a solid-liquid heterogeneous system to obtain a paramylon-based resin of this example. Specifically, the paramylon-based resin (paramylon propionate stearate) was prepared according to the following.

[0199]15 g of a raw material paramylon (weight average molecular weight: 242000) and 150 g of a 1% aqueous hydrochloric acid solution were put into a reactor, stirred at 100° C. for 4 hours, and then washed with water to obtain paramylon 1 having an adjusted molecular weight. The weight average molecular weight (Mw) of paramylon 1 was 139000.

[0200]4.5 g of paramylon 1 (in terms of dry mass, 27.8 mmol / glucose unit) was put into a reactor, dispersed in a mixture of 59 ml of N-methylpyrrolidone and 8.2 mL of pyridine under a nitrogen atmosphere, and stirred at room temperature overnight for activation.

example 2

[0228]15 g of a raw material paramylon (weight average molecular weight: 242000) and 150 g of a 3% aqueous hydrochloric acid solution were put into a reactor, stirred at 100° C. for 4 hours, and then washed with water to obtain paramylon 2 having an adjusted molecular weight. The weight average molecular weight (Mw) of paramylon 2 was 83700. A paramylon-based resin (paramylon propionate stearate) was prepared according to the same amount and method as in Example 1 except that paramylon 1 was changed to paramylon 2 (yield amount: 9.3g, yield: 99%).

[0229]The obtained paramylon-based resin (paramylon propionate stearate) was measured by 1H-NMR in the same manner as in Example 1, and as a result, DSLo was 0.14, and DSSh was 2.4.

[0230]Further, this paramylon-based resin was evaluated for mechanical characteristics such as impact strength and flowability in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 1.

example 3

[0231]15 g of a raw material paramylon (weight average molecular weight: 242000) and 150 g of a 3% aqueous hydrochloric acid solution were put into a reactor, stirred at 100° C. for 6 hours, and then washed with water to obtain paramylon 3 having an adjusted molecular weight. The weight average molecular weight (Mw) of paramylon 3 was 71200. A paramylon-based resin (paramylon propionate stearate) was prepared according to the same amount and method as in Example 1 except that paramylon 1 was changed to paramylon 3 (yield amount: 8.9 g, yield: 93%).

[0232]The obtained paramylon-based resin (paramylon propionate stearate) was measured by 1H-NMR in the same manner as in Example 1, and as a result, DSLo was 0.16, and DSSh was 2.5.

[0233]Further, this paramylon-based resin was evaluated for mechanical characteristics such as impact strength and flowability in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 1.

Abstract

A paramylon-based resin having a weight-average molecular weight of paramylon in a range of 70000 to 140000, and formed by substituting hydrogen atoms of hydroxy groups of a paramylon with a long-chain component being a linear saturated aliphatic acyl group having 14 or more carbon atoms and a short-chain component being an acyl group (acetyl group or / and propionyl group) having 2 or 3 carbon atoms, wherein a degree of substitution with the long-chain component (DSLo) and a degree of substitution with the short-chain component (DSSh) satisfy the following conditional expressions (1) and (2), Izod impact strength is 5.0 kJ / m2 or more, and an MFR (melt flow rate at 210° C. and under a load of 5 kg) is 2 g / 10 min or more. To provide a paramylon-based resin excellent in mechanical characteristics and thermoplasticity. 2.2≤DSLo+DSSh≤2.8 (1) 5≤DSSh / DSLo≤25 (2)

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a paramylon-based resin, a molding material and a molded body, and a method for producing a paramylon-based resin.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Bioplastics made from plant resources can contribute to countermeasures against petroleum depletion and global warming, and has been started being used in general products such as packaging, containers and fibers but also in durable products such as electronic equipment and automobiles.[0003]However, since conventional bioplastics are made of edible components such as starch as raw materials, in view of concerns about food shortages in the future, the development of new bioplastics using non-edible plant components as raw materials is required.[0004]As a non-edible plant component, cellulose, which is a main component of wood and vegetation, is typical, and bioplastics using the cellulose have been developed and partially commercialized.[0005]Cellulose is produced by removing lignin and hemicellulo...
