Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of PLA, in particular to low-odor and low-density PLA and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] PLA is a biodegradable plastic and a low-carbon, environmentally friendly material. However, in its promotion and application, compared with traditional plastics PP and PE materials, on the one hand, it has a stronger odor, which reduces the user experience of the product; on the other hand, the material density and price are relatively high, and the material cost of the finished products is relatively high.

[0008] Completely different from the concept of this patent. Summary of the invention

[0009] Purpose of the invention: To provide a low-odor, low-density PLA with better effect and a preparation method and use thereof. For specific purposes, see the multiple substantial technical effects in the specific implementation section.

[0010] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: The low-odor and low-density PLA is characterized in that it contains the following weight components: the powder after the molecular sieve is ground is added to the formula according to 2-10% of the PLA particle raw material; the controllable high-temperature expansion microspheres are added to the formula according to 2-10% of the PLA particle raw material; and the balance is the PLA particle raw material.

[0011] The method for preparing low-odor and low-density PLA is characterized in that: The following steps are included: First: Grind the molecular sieve and add the molecular sieve powder into the formula at 2-10% of the PLA particle raw material; Second: Add controlled high temperature expansion microspheres into the formula at 2-10% of the PLA particle raw material; Third: granulation.

[0012] A further technical solution of the present invention is that the controllable high temperature expansion microsphere is a thermoplastic hollow high molecular polymer microsphere, which is composed of a thermoplastic polymer shell and sealed alkane gas.

[0013] A further technical solution of the present invention is that when the controllable high temperature expandable microspheres are heated, the gas pressure in the shell increases and the thermoplastic volume increases significantly; when cooled, the shell of the controllable high temperature expandable microspheres hardens again and the volume is fixed.
