Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of degradable plastics, in particular to a fully biodegradable glove bag. Background Art

[0002] At present, most of the glove packaging materials are non-degradable petroleum-based plastics. Such plastic packaging bags are widely used in many fields of daily life due to their advantages of high strength, low price, light weight, convenient transportation, and effective product protection. While bringing convenience to people, they also bring huge burdens to the natural environment. These petroleum-based plastic packaging bags degrade very slowly under natural environment and microbial conditions, causing serious white pollution. Nearly 30% of the waste plastic glove bags used each year are difficult to be effectively treated and can only be treated by landfill, incineration, composting, etc. Therefore, it is a general trend in the plastic packaging bag industry to use natural or synthetic degradable plastics to replace non-degradable petroleum-based plastics. Summary of the invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a fully biodegradable glove bag to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a fully biodegradable glove bag, comprising the following preparation steps:

[0005] (1) Under a nitrogen atmosphere, 0.5-1.2 parts by weight of polystyrene powder with a molecular weight range of 5000-50000 and 19-30 parts by weight of dichloromethane are stirred at 30 rpm for 12 hours, 0.4-1.5 parts by weight of 2-fluoroacetyl chloride and 0.08 parts by weight of aluminum chloride are added, and the reaction is carried out at 25°C for 3-5 hours to obtain a reaction solution, and the reaction solution is first treated with tetrahydrofuran and a 3.8% by volume hydrochloric acid solution to fully wash away the aluminum chloride attached to the surface of the polystyrene powder, and then the pH of the reaction solution is adjusted to 6 with deionized water, and then the pH of the reaction solution is adjusted with anhydrous ethanol, and the filtrate is filtered and dried at 60°C to constant weight to obtain a modified polystyrene powder;

[0006] (2) dissolving the modified polystyrene powder in toluene to obtain a polystyrene solution;

[0007] (3) Mix bagasse and 3 wt% sodium hydroxide solution in a mass ratio of 1:108-110, place in a 0-4°C refrigerator for treatment for 12-18 hours, pour in a polystyrene solution, the mass ratio of the polystyrene solution to the sodium hydroxide solution is 1:10-25, pour into an ultra-low temperature stirring tank, adjust the temperature in the ultra-low temperature stirring tank to -18°C, and the stirring speed is 100 rpm. After treating for 1-2 hours, filter out the solid, place in a freeze dryer, and freeze-dry at -18°C to constant weight to obtain a degradation agent;

[0008] (4) The biodegradable agent, SBS, polypropylene, glass fiber, silane coupling agent, defoaming agent and plasticizer are uniformly mixed in a mass ratio of 10-15:8-15:35-60:1-5:0.5-2:0.5-1:3-5, melt-extruded at 190-210°C, blown film, slit, rolled and bagged to obtain a fully biodegradable glove bag.

[0009] Furthermore, the concentration of the polystyrene solution in step (2) is 10-45 mg / mL.

[0010] Furthermore, the polypropylene melt index in step (4) is 3.6 g·(10 min) -1 .

[0011] Furthermore, the silane coupling agent in step (4) is one of KH550, KH560, and KH570.

[0012] Furthermore, the plasticizer in step (4) is glycerol.

[0013] Furthermore, the defoaming agent in step (4) is silicone oil.

[0014] Furthermore, the SBS in step (4) is SBS 1401.

[0015] Furthermore, the polypropylene in step (4) is polypropylene PP s1003.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:

[0017] The present invention adopts 2-fluoroacetyl chloride to modify polystyrene to obtain fluoroacetylated modified polystyrene powder, which is then placed in a toluene environment, and the modified polystyrene powder is dissolved to form a polystyrene solution; then the present invention selects bagasse as a natural degradation agent, and after cold treatment with sodium hydroxide, the complete and compact surface structure of the bagasse is significantly damaged and becomes loose, and more active sites such as OH are exposed at the same time, and then the polystyrene solution is poured into the cold treatment liquid of the bagasse, the solvent environment changes, and the ambient temperature drops rapidly, the original toluene cannot maintain the dissolved state of the polymer, resulting in rapid precipitation in a solid state, and the inside and outside of the solid state are heated to different degrees, and then the relative cooling speed is different, so that the inside and outside shrink unevenly, forming a large internal stress, causing cracks, and making the modified Open channels are formed on the inner and outer surfaces of polystyrene, presenting a porous structure. At the same time, the modified polystyrene molecular structure contains fluorine atoms, which can form certain hydrogen bonds with the -OH of sugarcane bagasse, and then adhere to the surface of sugarcane. Due to the loose structure of sugarcane bagasse, part of the modified polystyrene enters the internal structure, which better wraps the sugarcane bagasse. The channels of the modified polystyrene are connected to the outside world, and microorganisms can contact the degradation agent through the micropores of the modified polystyrene, which can block the degradation agent from directly contacting the external environment. While achieving degradability, it can also meet daily use, and control the ratio of modified polystyrene to sugarcane bagasse to prevent excessive modified polystyrene coating from reducing the degradation rate, and too little modified polystyrene coating from affecting the mechanical properties of the glove bag.

[0018] During the melt extrusion process of glove bags, SBS is used to promote the interface compatibility between polypropylene and polystyrene, thereby reducing the deformation and sticking of polystyrene during the hot melt processing, thereby affecting the degradation effect. In addition, the better compatibility of the interface can improve the strength and elasticity of the glove bags. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
