Long-term stockpiled phosphogypsum not only occupies a large amount of land resources, but also poses environmental risks such as heavy metal pollution and leakage of acidic wastewater. At the same time, cellulose, as a renewable polymer material with abundant reserves in nature, has good biocompatibility, degradability and processability. The composite preparation of phosphogypsum and cellulose to form a new functional material can not only achieve the high-value utilization of phosphogypsum, but also expand the application field of cellulose materials, which is in line with the concept of circular economy and green development. Summary of the Invention

By optimizing the pretreatment of raw materials, the composite process and the forming technology, the physical and mechanical properties, weather resistance and functionality of the material are improved to solve the problem of difficult large-scale resource reuse of phosphogypsum.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme: A phosphogypsum-based cellulose composite material is prepared by mixing modified phosphogypsum: modified cellulose: mixed additives in a mass percentage ratio of 7:2:1.

[0005] Preferably, the modified phosphogypsum is prepared by dissolving phosphogypsum in an oxalic acid aqueous solution with a mass fraction of 3-5% at 30-45°C, stirring, placing it in an ultrasonic device for ultrasonic treatment for 25-35 min, then filtering, washing with water, and drying at 30-40°C.

[0006] Preferably, the cellulose is softwood or cotton linter, with a degree of polymerization of 1500-2000 and a purity of ≥98%.

[0007] Preferably, the cellulose is pretreated by alkalization with a sodium carbonate solution at 20-25°C for 2-3 hours, then ultrasonically cleaned and filtered at 30-40°C for 0.5-1 hour, and then neutralized with citric acid at 20-25°C for 0.5-1 hour, and finally dried and processed.

[0008] Preferably, the additive is compounded by a coupling agent, a lubricant and a binder in a mass ratio of 6-7:1-2:1-2.
