Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of material, in particular to a degradable product based on chitin micro-nano fiber membrane and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Plastics have the advantages of being lightweight, low in manufacturing cost, and easy to shape. They also have excellent optical properties and water resistance. However, in recent years, the environmental pollution caused by disposable petroleum-based plastic packaging has attracted much attention. Due to the difficulty of degrading petroleum-based plastics and the current low recycling rate, these petroleum-based plastic wastes have become one of the main factors causing environmental pollution.

[0003] The degradable plastics currently developed mainly include polylactic acid (PLA), polycaprolactone (PCL), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), etc. Among them, PLA is mainly derived from food crops such as corn. Although it is biodegradable, the degradation conditions are relatively harsh and it is difficult to achieve natural degradation. Secondly, using corn as the main raw material for plastic production will inevitably consume a large amount of corn and raise food prices. In addition, PLA also has problems such as heat resistance, UV resistance, brittle texture, and inability to form films, and the preparation process is relatively complicated. Compared with PLA, PCL has better hydrophobicity, but slower degradation rate, low melting point, low molecular weight, and poor strength, making it difficult to further expand its application field. PHB has a large relative density, low oxygen permeability, UV tolerance, active optical activity, but it is fragile and has poor impact resistance. Its processing conditions are harsh, the processing temperature is a narrow temperature range near 190°C, and the molten state is extremely unstable and prone to degradation. These problems limit the further development and diversified application of existing degradable plastics.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a new green and environmentally friendly plastic alternative that has high strength, optical transparency, heat resistance, water resistance, and is fully biodegradable. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a degradable product based on chitin micro-nano fiber membrane and a preparation method thereof, wherein chitin micron fiber and chitin nanofiber are extracted from biological shell materials such as shrimp and crab shells through a mechanical graded fiber disintegration process and mixed and interwoven. Among them, the chitin nanofiber strengthens the bonding force between the chitin micron fiber network, forming a stable three-dimensional ultrafine multi-level graded double network structure, retaining and enhancing the advantages of the chitin micron fiber network and the chitin nanofiber network, with excellent mechanical properties, good light transmittance, thermal stability and water resistance, and has potential application prospects in the fields of precision optical devices, flexible electronic devices, and high-performance all-biomass degradable packaging.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention proposes the following technical solution: a method for preparing a degradable product based on chitin micro-nano fiber membrane, comprising the following process:

The alkaline solution is sodium hydroxide NaOH or potassium hydroxide KOH. The specific method of gelation and step-by-step neutralization treatment is: the chitosan micro-nano fiber wet film obtained in the second step is immersed in 15-25% alkaline solution at a low temperature of minus 18-25°C for 12-24 hours to induce gelation of the chitosan micro-nano fiber. Then, under the low temperature of minus 18-25°C, ice ethanol is used to partially remove the sodium (Na + ) ions for 2 hours, and then rinse the wet film with ice water until it is neutral, and dry it at room temperature to prepare chitosan micro-nano fiber hybrid membrane product a;

[0010] The third step is to cut the chitosan micro-nano fiber wet film obtained in the second step into rectangular strips of set size, roll them on a polytetrafluoroethylene cylindrical rod along the length edge, press them at the bonding edge, and then place them in a 15-25% alkaline solution, and immerse them at a low temperature of minus 18-25°C for 12-24 hours to induce gelation of the chitosan micro-nano fibers, and then use ice ethanol to partially remove the sodium (Na + ) ions for 2 hours, then rinse the wet film with ice water until it is neutral, dry it at room temperature for 2-6 hours and then demould it to obtain a straw product;

[0024] Furthermore, in the present invention, when a uniform mixed slurry is obtained in the second step, the mass ratios of the chitosan micron fiber to the chitosan nanofiber are 1:1, 7:3, and 3:7, respectively. During the ultrasonic process, the chitosan nanofiber suspension is dropwise added into the chitosan micron fiber suspension. The ultrasonic power is 800-1250 W and the ultrasonic time is 5-10 min.
