Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biodegradable materials technology, specifically relating to a biodegradable polyester composite material and its applications. Background Technology

[0002] Biodegradable mulch films are a type of plastic mulch film that can degrade under natural environmental conditions through the action of microorganisms. After microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes erode the plastic film, their cell growth causes the polymer components to hydrolyze, ionize, or protonate, resulting in mechanical damage and the film breaking down into oligomer fragments. Enzymes secreted by fungi or bacteria decompose or oxidize water-soluble polymers into water-soluble fragments, generating new small molecule compounds, until finally decomposing into CO2 and H2O. Among these biodegradable mulch films, biodegradable polyester mulch films are the most common and have received widespread attention.

[0003] However, biodegradable mulch films require low water vapor permeability in some applications, but ordinary biodegradable polyester materials have high water vapor permeability, which limits their application.

[0004] Therefore, developing a biodegradable polyester composite material with low water vapor permeability is an urgent problem to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a biodegradable polyester composite material and its applications. The membrane material made from the biodegradable polyester composite material exhibits low water vapor permeability.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a biodegradable polyester composite material, wherein, by weight, the biodegradable polyester composite material comprises 63-95 parts of biodegradable polyester, 2-10 parts of polylactic acid, 1-10 parts of polycarbonate-type polyurethane, 1-12 parts of inorganic filler and 1-5 parts of cellulose acetate; the carboxyl content of the biodegradable polyester after boiling in water at 95°C for 24 hours is 10-50 mol / t.

[0007] In this invention, controlling the carboxyl content of the biodegradable polyester within a specific range after boiling in water at 95°C for 24 hours results in better stability of the melt-blended material and better preservation of the molecular chains during processing, thereby helping to reduce water vapor permeability. Excessively high carboxyl content after boiling indicates that water molecules can enter the material under heat, leading to molecular chain breakage and the formation of terminal carboxyl groups. This will also cause molecular chain breakage during melt shear blending of the resin and inorganic fillers in a twin-screw extruder. The breakage of molecular chains weakens chain entanglement, increases the gaps between polyester molecular chains, and facilitates water vapor permeation. Conversely, excessively low carboxyl content after boiling indicates a very dense internal microstructure of the polyester, with strong molecular chain entanglement or crystallization. However, excessively strong entanglement and crystallization are detrimental to compatibility with PLA and filler encapsulation, leading to microscopic defects at the phase interface between different components, which also contributes to water vapor permeation. By incorporating polycarbonate-type polyurethane, the soft segment, composed of polycarbonate diol, exhibits higher rigidity and density compared to other types of polyurethane, such as polyether-type polyurethane. Furthermore, the carbonate bond (-O-CO-O-) is more polar than polyether, forming a stronger hydrogen bond network with the urethane bond in the hard segment. This results in a more compact chain segment and smaller free volume, effectively restricting the penetration and diffusion of water molecules. Additionally, polycarbonate exhibits better hydrolysis resistance than polyester and has lower intrinsic hydrophilicity, further enhancing its ability to inhibit water molecule penetration and diffusion. Further combination with cellulose acetate, which possesses numerous hydroxyl and polar groups, enables the formation of abundant, strong, and ordered hydrogen bonds with biodegradable polyester, polylactic acid, and polycarbonate-type polyurethane. This dense physical cross-linking network significantly restricts the movement of polymer chain segments, resulting in a more compact molecular chain stack and a substantial improvement in barrier properties. Therefore, by using biodegradable polyester with a carboxyl content within a specific range after boiling in water, and compounding it with polylactic acid, polycarbonate-type polyurethane, inorganic fillers, and cellulose acetate in specific amounts, the membrane prepared from the biodegradable polyester composite material has a low water vapor permeability.
