Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of heat shrinkable film production, and in particular to a white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Heat-shrink film is a common packaging film. Its shrinkage upon application is often exploited to achieve a form-fitting effect or bundled wrapping, while also protecting contents from contamination or damage. Heat-shrink film shrinks by orienting the active molecular chains near their melting point or glass transition temperature during film production. This orientation is then rapidly solidified by cooling to below the crystallization point or glass transition temperature. Upon reheating above the melting point or glass transition temperature, the polymer chains regain their mobility, curling and orienting themselves, resulting in macroscopic film shrinkage.

[0003] Currently, the main heat shrink films used in packaging include polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polystyrene (PS), modified polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), and multi-layer co-extruded polyolefin (POF) heat shrink films. PVC heat shrink films often produce large amounts of hydrogen chloride and dioxin gases when incinerated, making them difficult to recycle and not environmentally friendly. Therefore, their application is limited. PE and POF heat shrink films offer excellent flexibility, strong impact and tear resistance, are durable, moisture-resistant, and have a wide shrinkage range, but they suffer from poor printing properties. PS heat shrink film offers excellent low-temperature stability and visual appeal during the shrinking process, but is temperature-sensitive and requires strict storage conditions. Its thickness uniformity is difficult to control, leading to fisheyes and color misregistration. Furthermore, PS heat shrink film requires specialized inks and solvents for printing, resulting in high costs. PETG heat shrink film offers excellent thickness uniformity, superior printing results, and is temperature-insensitive, making it easier to store, transport, and transport. PETG white heat shrink film is widely used in packaging dairy products and other products requiring UV protection due to its excellent light-blocking properties and visual appeal. However, the high cost of the white masterbatch used in this film has hampered its production and sales.

[0004] By using recycled waste bottle embryos to replace part of PETG raw materials, not only can environmental pollution be reduced, but also resources can be reused. Since they are processed from used plastics, waste bottle embryos have many impurities and poor color after granulation, and most of them can only be used as low-grade raw materials, which affects the overall performance of the film and is difficult to use in fields with high requirements for appearance and environmental protection. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film and a preparation method thereof, which can reduce costs while meeting various performance indicators.

[0006] A white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film, comprising an extruded upper surface layer A, a core layer B, and a lower surface layer A, wherein the A layers are arranged on both sides of the B layer, wherein the A layers comprise 96-98 parts of PETG polyester chips, 1-2 parts of an anti-blocking agent, and 1-2 parts of a slip agent; and the B layers comprise 50-65 parts of PETG polyester chips, 5-30 parts of white bottle embryo regranules, and 5-15 parts of white masterbatch.

[0007] In some embodiments of the present invention, the opening agent in layer A is at least one of aluminum oxide, mica powder, kaolin or silicon dioxide.

[0008] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lubricant in layer A is at least one of stearamide, oleamide or styrene amide.

[0009] In some embodiments of the present invention, the mass ratio of the anti-blocking agent to the lubricating agent is 0.3-0.8:1-2.

[0010] In some embodiments of the present invention, the total thickness of the white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film is 20-80 μm.

[0011] In some embodiments of the present invention, the total thickness of the A layers on both sides of the B layer accounts for 15-20% of the total thickness of the white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film, and the thickness of the B layer accounts for 80-85% of the total thickness of the white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present invention, the production process of the white preform recycled granules in layer B comprises the following steps:

[0013] Step 1: crush the white waste PET bottles, then pass clean water into the feed port to rinse the crushed bottle flakes, kill bacteria and viruses in the fragments through an ultraviolet sterilizer; rinse in a rinsing pot and bleach in a bleaching machine to remove pigments from the crushed bottle flakes;

[0014] Step 2: Add the dried chips and functional additives to a volumetric feeder with stirring, and steadily feed them into a twin-screw extruder through the feeder; the screw extruder temperature is 260-270°C;

[0015] Step 3: After the mixture obtained in step 2 is passed through a high vacuum system to remove low-volatile components, it enters a double-column, double-station, large-area screen changer to filter out impurities. The filtration temperature is 250-270°C and the filtration pressure is 20-30 MPa.

[0016] Step 4: The material obtained in step 3 is finally extruded through a strand die head and pelletized using an automatic strand drawing system to obtain the white bottle preform regranulate.

[0017] Furthermore, in step 1, a rotary dryer with a heating interlayer is used to remove a large amount of moisture remaining in the fragments during the cleaning process. Superheated steam is passed through the interlayer, and the fragments are rotated while being heated; the drying temperature is 100°C-150°C, and the rotation speed is 4-10 rpm.

[0018] Furthermore, in step 2, the functional additive comprises at least one of 7-hydroxycoumarin, a brightener, and bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl phosphate) calcium salt.

[0019] Furthermore, the addition amount of the 7-hydroxycoumarin accounts for 0.002-0.01 wt % of the total mass of the fragments.

[0020] Furthermore, the dosage of the brightener is 0.05-0.2 wt% of the total mass of the fragments, and specific products can be OM-LP-31-5, HS-DY-5, ML-PU-17-3, etc. purchased from Linyi Mingshuo Trading Co., Ltd.

[0021] Furthermore, the addition amount of the bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzylphosphonic acid monoethyl ester) calcium accounts for 0.01-0.1 wt % of the total mass of the fragments.

[0022] Furthermore, the functional additives include 0.002-0.01 wt% of 7-hydroxycoumarin based on the total mass of the fragments, 0.05-0.2 wt% of a brightener based on the total mass of the fragments, and 0.01-0.1 wt% of calcium bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzylphosphonate) based on the total mass of the fragments.

[0023] The presence of a brightener improves the brightness and smoothness of the resulting white preform recycled pellets. Calcium bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzylphosphonate) acts as an antioxidant, enhancing the heat-shrink film's resistance to oxidative yellowing. 7-Hydroxycoumarin, introduced into the heat-shrink film through preform recycled pellets, replaces environmentally harmful fluorescent brighteners and mitigates color variations in the recycled pellets.

[0024] Through certain creative experiments, the inventors concluded that if the three additives are present at the same time, the hue of the obtained white bottle embryo recycled pellets is uniform and can be evenly dispersed with the PETG polyester chips, ultimately making the light resistance of the obtained PETG white heat shrinkable film enhanced and the whiteness excellent.

[0025] When preparing the white preform recycled granules, the double-column double-station large-area screen changer used in step 3 has a large filtration area and a filtration accuracy of up to 15-20 μm, which can greatly reduce the impurity content of the preform recycled granules.

[0026] The preparation method of the above-mentioned white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film comprises the following steps:

[0027] SS1: Add PETG polyester chips, anti-blocking agent and slip agent into high-speed mixing equipment according to the metered amount to obtain layer A material;

[0028] SS2: PETG polyester chips, white masterbatch, and white preform recycled granules are added into another high-speed mixing equipment according to the metered amount to obtain layer B material;

[0029] SS3: The mixed materials of each layer are respectively put into the corresponding twin-screw vacuum extruder for melting and plasticization to obtain the melt of the upper and lower layers A and the core layer B; the temperature of the twin-screw extruder is 250-270℃;

[0030] SS4: After the impurities in the A and B layer melts are filtered out by a filter, the melt distribution system feeds each layer of melt into the die head corresponding to the A and B layer flow channels. The melts are combined and extruded at the die head, and after electrostatic adsorption, they are tightly attached to the quenching roller and rapidly cooled to obtain cast sheets.

[0031] SS5: After being preheated, the cast sheet enters a stretching machine for longitudinal and transverse stretching into a film. Finally, the film is shaped, cooled, and rolled to obtain the white recycled PETG heat shrink film.

[0032] Furthermore, the rotation speed of the high-speed mixing equipment in SS1 and SS2 is 400-600 rpm, and the stirring time is 5-10 min.

[0033] Furthermore, in SS1, when preparing the B layer material, 5-15 parts of ordinary bottle preform regranulation can be added, and the preparation process is the same as the preparation process of the above-mentioned white bottle preform regranulation, and the raw materials of the ordinary bottle preform regranulation do not contain white waste PET bottles.

[0034] Furthermore, in SS4, the extrusion temperature of the multi-layer die head is 250-270° C.; the temperature of the chill roll is 25-30° C.; and the linear speed of the rotation is 75-85 m / min.

[0035] Furthermore, in SS4, the extrusion mass ratio of the upper surface layer A, layer B and the lower surface layer A is 1:1-10:1.

[0036] Furthermore, in SS5, the transverse stretching ratio of the transverse and longitudinal stretching is 4.0-6.0 times, and the longitudinal stretching ratio is 1.0-4.0 times.

[0037] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film provided by the present invention has the following advantages:

[0038] 1. When preparing the white preform recycled granules, the functional additives added make the obtained white preform recycled granules uniform, free of impurities, with stable hue and excellent dispersion performance;

[0039] 2. By adding white preform recycled granules to the core layer, the production cost is greatly reduced without affecting various performance indicators. At the same time, the obtained white recycled PETG heat shrinkable film has excellent light blocking and high whiteness, strong covering power, suitable for all kinds of bottle use needs, and meets the requirements of green product development.
