Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of composite fiber production, with classification number D01F8 / 14, and specifically to a preparation method and application of degradable ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber. Background Art

[0002] Current fishing nets are typically made from synthetic fibers such as polyamide and polyvinylidene chloride. However, these fibers are not easily degraded in the natural environment. If abandoned in the ocean, they pose a significant threat to marine life and the marine environment. To address this issue, scientists have developed biodegradable materials such as polylactic acid (PLA) to produce corresponding fishing net materials. However, the mechanical properties of conventionally spun PLA fibers are poor and cannot meet the needs of practical applications. Therefore, small amounts of biodegradable polymers such as starch, polyglycolic acid, polybutylene succinate, or cellulose acetate are typically added to the polyethylene (PE) spinning system. This improves mechanical properties while also utilizing the biodegradable polymers to promote PE degradation. Catalytic degradation uses high-energy radiation or chemical catalysts to break PE molecular chains, degrading them into low-molecular-weight compounds that can ultimately be digested by microorganisms.

[0003] Therefore, this application intends to improve the degradation performance of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibers through the synergistic effect of biodegradable polymer blending and photocatalysis. First, a degradation modifier with synergistic degradation effect is prepared, and then the catalytic degradation agent is uniformly blended with ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene to prepare a degradable ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene masterbatch. Then, the blended gel spinning technology is used to prepare the degradable ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibers, which not only improves the mechanical properties of the fibers, but also improves the degradation performance of the fibers.

[0004] Patent CN107237001B provides a starch-modified polylactic acid monofilament for fishing and a preparation method thereof. By mixing polylactic acid, starch, and nano-silica, the breaking strength and knot strength of the polylactic acid fiber are enhanced, but its breaking strength is only 3.2 cN / dtex, which cannot meet the needs of practical applications.

[0042] A second aspect of the present invention provides an application of a method for preparing degradable high molecular weight polyethylene fibers in fishing nets.

[0043] Nano-titanium dioxide is rich in hydroxyl groups on its surface and is prone to agglomeration, which greatly limits its application in other fields. However, the applicant has found in a large number of experiments that when the mass ratio of polylactic acid and nano-titanium dioxide is limited to (0.1-0.2):1 and the mass fraction of polylactic acid is 10-20%, the biodegradation rate of the fiber in an anaerobic environment is ≥80% within 180 days. It is speculated that: on the one hand, the titanium dioxide presents a core-shell structure in the PLA matrix, which reduces the agglomeration phenomenon between the particles, thereby improving the photocatalytic effect of titanium dioxide; on the other hand, When degradation occurs, more voids and cracks can be formed inside the fiber, and microorganisms and water can enter the interior of the fiber, thereby increasing the degradation rate of the fiber in an anaerobic environment; when the applicant limits the volume ratio of the blended solution to ethanol to 1: (2-4), while ensuring its degradation performance, it also unexpectedly improves the breaking strength and elongation of the fiber. This may be because ethanol is adsorbed between PLA, making PLA have certain hydrophilic properties, promoting the compatibility of polylactic acid and nano-titanium dioxide, and enhancing the storage modulus of the composite material.

[0044] The applicant found that when the mass ratio of titanium dioxide-containing polylactic acid nanospheres and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene swelling liquid is (0.02-0.07):1, the fiber's breaking strength is as high as 30 cN / dtex, and the elongation at break is ≤3.5%. It is speculated that the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene swelling liquid forms more entanglement points in the blend, increases the modulus of the material, and thus affects its breaking strength and elongation at break. The weight-average molecular weight of polylactic acid is further limited to 50,000-150,000, and the molecular weight of the high molecular weight polymer is 1.4-1.6 million. The degree of mutual entanglement between macromolecules increases, causing the friction between molecules to increase, thereby affecting the elongation at break. On this basis, the applicant limited the melt index of polylactic acid to 20-30g / 10min (210℃, 2.16kg) and the melt index of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene to 1-3g / 10min (190℃, 10kg). It was unexpectedly discovered that the fiber density can be made ≤1.0g / cm3. It is speculated that the polylactic acid and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene at this molecular weight and melt index have better flow properties, improved processing performance, and a certain improvement in the relative molecular mass and crystallinity of the system, which in turn affects the fiber density of the fiber.

[0045] Beneficial effects: The degradable ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber prepared by the preparation method of the present invention has excellent elongation at break and breaking strength, and also has a lower fiber density, and can be better used in marine fishing nets. At the same time, its excellent degradability can avoid environmental pollution, and it is a green and environmentally friendly fiber. In addition, the preparation method of the present invention has low manufacturing cost, simple production process, and is easy to realize industrial production. Example
