Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polyethylene resin technology, specifically relating to a composition, resin, and preparation method for high-speed production of thin-walled polyethylene drip irrigation pipes. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing global imbalance between water supply and demand, water conservation has become a global focus and is directly related to the long-term goal of sustainable development for population, resources, and the environment. Currently, relatively mature agricultural water-saving engineering technologies with significant water-saving effects include: canal seepage prevention, low-pressure pipeline water conveyance, plastic pipe wells, sprinkler irrigation, and micro-drip irrigation. Micro-drip irrigation pipes are divided into on-pipe drip irrigation pipes and in-line drip irrigation pipes. The drippers used include pressure-compensated and labyrinth channel types. When the diameter of the main and branch pipes is below 63mm, polyethylene (PE) pipes are used.
[0003] Drip irrigation pipes deliver water to the roots of crops through orifices or drippers on capillary tubes with a diameter of approximately 10mm for localized irrigation. Water is dripped slowly and evenly, drop by drop, onto the soil near the crop roots through drippers or drip tubes with very small outflow orifices. Currently, in some domestic fields where lifespan requirements are not high, recycled polyethylene drip irrigation pipes are frequently used. However, these pipes are prone to cracking, leading to water waste and hindering the effective use of drip irrigation tape. Furthermore, existing blending methods or the direct use of recycled polyethylene in drip irrigation pipe production result in products with poor performance characteristics such as resistance to environmental stress cracking and flexibility, failing to meet usage requirements. Processing speeds are also low (typically <200m / min), impacting production efficiency, and the product thickness is >0.15mm.
[0004] Currently, there are very few patents and documents regarding the preparation methods of resins used in the high-speed production of thin-walled polyethylene drip irrigation pipes. For example, the invention patent CN 107337836 A (application number 201710570865.5), which discloses "An Oxidation-Resistant Polyethylene Drip Irrigation Tape and Its Preparation Method," relates to an oxidation-resistant polyethylene drip irrigation tape comprising the following components: carbon black, PPA processing aid, composite antioxidant, high-density polyethylene, and linear low-density polyethylene. The composite antioxidant is composed of antioxidant B215, UV absorber UV531, and low-density high-pressure polyethylene. The composite antioxidant used in this invention's oxidation-resistant polyethylene drip irrigation tape is primarily a high-molecular-weight organic material, which not only has good oxidation resistance but also good compatibility with the polyethylene polymer, reducing structural defects that may occur during drip irrigation tape preparation. Compared to ordinary drip irrigation tape, it provides higher strength oxidation resistance. To prevent side cracking of drip irrigation tape during outdoor use, this patent effectively enhances the oxidation resistance of ordinary polyethylene drip irrigation tape without added antioxidants, ensuring its service life and reducing the possibility of damage during use. This patent focuses on improving the oxidation resistance of polyethylene drip irrigation pipes and does not address high-speed production or reducing wall thickness.
[0005] The invention patent CN 106397903 A (application number 201610768093.1), disclosing "A Polyethylene Drip Irrigation Tape with High Tensile Strength," provides a polyethylene drip irrigation tape with high tensile strength, prepared from raw materials comprising the following parts by weight: 40-45 parts high-density polyethylene; 16-18 parts low-density polyethylene; 14-15 parts linear low-density polyethylene; 0.75-1.5 parts carbon black; 5-10 parts plasticizer; 0.25-0.5 parts PPA processing aid; and 5-10 parts glass fiber. The high-tensile-strength polyethylene drip irrigation tape of this invention incorporates glass fiber in its formulation. Glass fiber is a high-performance inorganic non-metallic material with good insulation, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and high mechanical strength. Compared to ordinary drip irrigation tape, it provides higher tensile strength. However, adding glass fiber increases costs and makes it difficult to disperse glass fiber in polyethylene, which complicates the process. In addition, this patent does not cover high-speed production of drip irrigation pipes or thinning of wall thickness. Summary of the Invention
