Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of modified PBAT mulch film preparation, and in particular to a method for preparing a modified biochar / PBAT mulch film with high water vapor barrier performance. Background Art

[0002] Ground film plays an important role in my country's agricultural production and life. At present, traditional polyethylene (PE) ground film is difficult to degrade, resulting in serious residual film pollution problems, which has led to an increasing demand for biodegradable ground film. Polybutylene terephthalate-adipate (PBAT) has excellent film-forming properties and is one of the best choices for preparing biodegradable ground film. However, its poor water vapor barrier properties limit its application in agricultural production, so it is necessary to improve its barrier properties through modification methods.

[0003] Defects and shortcomings of existing technologies: At present, the barrier properties of PBAT are mainly improved through molecular chain regulation, blending or surface modification; molecular chain regulation achieves the purpose of improving barrier properties by grafting monomers with better barrier properties onto the main chain of the polymer, however, this method has fewer monomers to choose from and a narrow operating window, which cannot meet the requirements of use; the blending method improves its barrier properties by blending with polymers with better barrier properties. The method is simple and easy to implement, but the gas barrier capacity of the blend is often between the polymers used, and it is difficult to achieve a significant improvement; surface modification of the film can improve its barrier properties, but the operation method is too complicated and the cost is generally high, which is not in line with the actual production of large-scale use of ground films; the filling method by adding inorganic materials such as biochar has gradually been recognized. These inorganic materials are widely available, low-priced, and will not cause secondary pollution to the land. They are an excellent choice for improving PBAT films.

[0004] However, in the prior art, there is no method for using biochar to regulate the water vapor barrier performance of PBAT mulch, because the larger particle size of biochar will destroy the continuity of PBAT and reduce its mechanical properties. In addition, simply adding unmodified biochar does not significantly improve the water vapor barrier performance of PBAT film, which is difficult to meet actual production needs; therefore, to solve this problem, the present invention proposes a method for preparing a modified biochar / PBAT mulch with high water vapor barrier performance, and applies biochar to the modification of PBAT mulch, which greatly improves its water vapor barrier performance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0029] A method for preparing a modified biochar / PBAT mulch film with high water vapor barrier performance of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0030] S1. Preparation of flaky biochar, comprising the following steps:

[0031] S1a, crushing plant straw into straw powder, adding the straw powder into a container containing sodium hydroxide solution and stirring evenly, then pouring the sodium hydroxide solution mixed with the straw powder into a ball mill for wet ball milling to obtain a mixed slurry;

[0032] The plant straw is one of wheat straw, corn straw, rice straw and soybean straw, the plant straw is crushed to 500 mesh and 5-10 g is taken, the molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution is 0.1-1 mol / L, and the amount of the sodium hydroxide solution added is 20-50 ml; the sodium hydroxide solution mixed with the straw powder is processed in a ball mill at a rotation speed of 100-300 rpm, and the wet ball milling is performed for 3-5 hours;

[0033] S1b, washing the obtained mixed slurry with deionized water until it is neutral and drying it, the drying treatment conditions are all drying at 60°C for 24 hours to obtain activated straw powder, and then placing the activated straw powder in a tubular furnace for carbonization treatment to obtain flaky biochar, wherein the carbonization treatment temperature is 300-600°C, and the carbonization is carried out under nitrogen protection for 3-5 hours;

[0034] The formation process of biochar with flake structure is as follows: first, the lignin part of straw powder is removed under alkaline solution conditions to make the structure soft, and then the alkaline solution and straw powder are added into the ball mill under wet ball milling conditions, and the zirconium oxide balls rub and crush the remaining part of the straw powder into flake structure during high-speed rotation;

[0035] The addition of flaky biochar material can form more barrier layers in the film, making the effective path for water vapor to pass through the film more tortuous, reducing the rate of water vapor transmission, and thus improving the water vapor barrier performance of the composite film;

[0036] S2. Preparation of modified biochar, comprising the following steps:

[0037] S2a, biochar preparation, crushing plant straw into straw powder, then washing the straw powder with deionized water to remove water-soluble impurities and drying the straw powder, the drying condition is drying at 60°C for 24 hours, then adding the dried straw powder to a tubular furnace for carbonization treatment to obtain straw biochar, then placing the straw biochar in a ball mill for ball milling treatment to obtain ball-milled biochar, wherein the carbonization temperature is 300-600°C, and the carbonization is carried out under nitrogen protection for 3-5 hours;

[0038] The plant straw is one of wheat straw, corn straw, rice straw and soybean straw, the plant straw is crushed to 500-1000 mesh, and the straw powder is washed at least three times with deionized water; the straw biochar is placed in a ball mill at a rotation speed of 100-300 rpm, ball milled for 2-5 hours, and the obtained ball-milled biochar particle size is 200-300 nm;

[0039] S2b, biochar modification, adding the prepared ball-milled biochar to a container containing epoxidized soybean oil for heating and stirring until the ball-milled biochar and the epoxidized soybean oil react, adding n-hexane and stirring after the liquid in the container cools down, dissolving the excess epoxidized soybean oil in n-hexane, separating the biochar by centrifugation, adding ethanol to the biochar for washing and centrifugation, retaining the bottom product and drying it to obtain modified biochar, and the drying conditions are all at 60°C for 24 hours;

[0040] The ball-milled biochar is 1-10 g, the amount of epoxy soybean oil added is 10-50 g, and the amount of n-hexane added is 50-200 g; the ball-milled biochar and the epoxy soybean oil are mixed and stirred at 100-200° C. for 1-3 hours;

[0041] S3, the preparation of the composite membrane comprises the following steps:

[0042] S3a, mixing the PBAT material with the flaky biochar and the modified biochar, and melt blending them through a twin-screw extruder granulator to obtain modified biochar / PBAT composite particles, and then placing the composite particles in a film blowing machine for film blowing to obtain a modified biochar / PBAT ground film;

[0043] Epoxidized soybean oil contains multiple epoxy groups. At high temperatures, some epoxy groups will open their rings and react with the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on the surface of biochar, so epoxy groups will be grafted onto the surface of biochar. The epoxy groups grafted onto biochar will open their rings and react with the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups at both ends of the PBAT and PPC molecular chains during twin-screw melt blending, achieving a cross-linking effect, thereby improving the performance of the mulch film.

[0044] The specific process is as follows:

[0045] Epoxidized soybean oil is a kind of substance containing multiple epoxy groups. Epoxy groups can open the ring and react with hydroxyl and carboxyl groups at high temperature. There are hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on the surface of ball-milled biochar, so one or several epoxy groups in epoxidized soybean oil will react with the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on the surface of biochar, and the remaining epoxy functional groups will be grafted on the surface of biochar. In this way, the surface of the modified biochar will have multiple epoxy functional groups. The PBAT polyester molecular chain contains terminal hydroxyl and terminal carboxyl groups. After we add the modified biochar, during the high-temperature melt blending of the twin-screw extruder, the epoxy functional groups on the surface of the modified biochar will also open the ring and react with the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups at both ends of the PBAT molecular chain to form a cross-linked structure, thereby reducing the free volume between molecules, slowing down the penetration of water molecules, and enhancing the water vapor barrier performance.
