Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waterproof cardboard box technology, specifically to an environmentally friendly waterproof cardboard box and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the common waterproof cardboard boxes on the market mainly adopt the following methods: (1) Polyethylene coated or laminated cardboard boxes: A layer of polyethylene plastic film is covered on the surface of the cardboard. This method has a good waterproof effect, but the polyethylene film is difficult to separate from the paper, which leads to the cardboard box needing to undergo complicated treatment during recycling. At the same time, polyethylene itself is non-degradable, and it will cause "white pollution" after being discarded, resulting in poor environmental performance. (2) Cardboard boxes with surface sprayed waterproofing agent: Fluorine or silicon-based chemical reagents are used for spraying. This type of cardboard box can usually only prevent splashing water. When it is continuously soaked or rubbed, the waterproof effect drops rapidly. At the same time, the waterproofing agent cannot be completely biodegradable, which also has the problem of poor environmental performance. (3) Wax-impregnated cardboard boxes: Mainly used for fruit and vegetable packaging, but they are easy to get greasy, have low strength, and are easy to get dirty, so they are not practical.
[0003] Based on this, the present invention provides a method for preparing an environmentally friendly waterproof cardboard box, which can effectively prevent water and moisture, is easy to recycle and biodegradable, and is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an environmentally friendly waterproof cardboard box and its preparation method, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: An environmentally friendly waterproof cardboard box is prepared by coating the surface of cardboard with a waterproof emulsion, curing, and folding.
[0006] Furthermore, the cardboard is formed by bonding together structural components including but not limited to face paper, liner paper, core paper, and corrugated paper; wherein the face paper, liner paper, and core paper are all wood pulp kraft paper.
[0007] Furthermore, the waterproof coating emulsion comprises the following raw material components in parts by weight: 30-40 parts modified polyvinyl alcohol, 15-20 parts modified starch, 6-10 parts epoxidized soybean oil, 0.2-0.4 parts alkyl glycoside, and 40-50 parts deionized water.
[0008] Furthermore, the method for preparing the modified polyvinyl alcohol is as follows: (1) Under light-protected conditions, polyvinyl alcohol, triethylamine, and 4-methoxyphenol were added to dimethylformamide and stirred to dissolve. Then, unsaturated fatty acyl chloride and saturated fatty acyl chloride were slowly added to the solution and stirred at room temperature for 24-48 hours. Finally, excess deionized water was added to the reaction solution and allowed to stand to precipitate. The precipitate was filtered, washed, and vacuum dried to constant weight to obtain unsaturated fatty chain modified polyvinyl alcohol. (2) Under nitrogen protection, unsaturated aliphatic chain modified polyvinyl alcohol and polycaprolactone-mercapto-dimethylformamide were added to dimethylformamide, stirred and dissolved, and then a photoinitiator was added. The mixture was then subjected to 365nm ultraviolet light at 20~40mW / cm². 2 Under light intensity, the reaction was stirred for 1-3 hours. Finally, excess deionized water was added to the reaction solution, and the precipitate was allowed to stand and precipitate out. After filtration, washing, and vacuum drying to constant weight, modified polyvinyl alcohol was obtained.
[0009] Furthermore, the preparation of the unsaturated fatty chain modified polyvinyl alcohol includes the following raw material components in parts by weight: 45-55 parts of polyvinyl alcohol, 3-5 parts of unsaturated fatty acyl chloride, 6-10 parts of saturated fatty acyl chloride, 5-8 parts of triethylamine, 0.1-0.2 parts of 4-methoxyphenol, and 120-180 parts of dimethylformamide.
[0010] Furthermore, the modified polyvinyl alcohol preparation comprises the following raw material components in parts by weight: 45-55 parts of unsaturated aliphatic chain modified polyvinyl alcohol, 4-6 parts of polycaprolactone-mercapto, 0.5-1.5 parts of photoinitiator, and 80-120 parts of dimethylformamide.
[0011] Furthermore, the polyvinyl alcohol has a molecular weight of 20,000 to 40,000 and a degree of hydrolysis of 78 to 88%.
[0012] Furthermore, the unsaturated fatty acyl chloride is oleoyl chloride.
[0013] Furthermore, the carbon chain length of the saturated fatty acyl chloride is C12~C18, specifically including but not limited to one or more combinations of lauroyl chloride, myristoyl chloride, palmitoyl chloride, and stearoyl chloride.
[0014] Furthermore, the molecular weight of the polycaprolactone-thiol group is 1000~3000.
[0015] Furthermore, the modified starch is prepared by: (1) Add starch to dimethylformamide and stir at 70~80℃ for 1~2h; then add lithium chloride and continue stirring for 20~40min, and set aside. (2) Under nitrogen protection, saturated fatty acyl chloride and triethylamine were added to (1), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6-18 hours. Finally, excess deionized water was added to the reaction solution, and the precipitate was allowed to stand and precipitate out. After filtration, washing, and vacuum drying to constant weight, fatty chain modified starch was obtained. (3) Add the fatty chain modified starch to a 50 v / v% isopropanol aqueous solution with pH=9~11, stir and mix at 50~60℃ for 0.5~1h, then add sodium chloroacetate and continue stirring and mixing for 2~6h. Finally, add dilute hydrochloric acid solution to adjust the pH to 6.5~7, filter, wash, and vacuum dry to constant weight to obtain modified starch.
[0016] Furthermore, the preparation of the fatty chain modified starch includes the following raw material components in parts by weight: 20-25 parts starch, 4-6 parts lithium chloride, 6-10 parts saturated fatty acyl chloride, 4-6 parts triethylamine, and 80-100 parts dimethylformamide.
[0017] Furthermore, the modified starch preparation includes the following raw material components in parts by weight: 20-25 parts of aliphatic chain modified starch, 4-6 parts of sodium chloroacetate, and 80-100 parts of isopropanol aqueous solution.
[0018] Further, the preparation method of the environmentally friendly waterproof cardboard box is as follows: (1) According to the formula ratio, the modified polyvinyl alcohol, modified starch, epoxidized soybean oil, alkyl glycoside and deionized water are mixed evenly to obtain a waterproof coating emulsion; (2) The waterproof coating emulsion is coated on the surface of the cardboard, dried and cured at 100~110℃, and folded into a box to obtain an environmentally friendly waterproof cardboard box.
[0019] Furthermore, the coating thickness is 10~50μm.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are: (1) In this invention, polyvinyl alcohol is modified by esterification and grafting with unsaturated fatty acyl chloride and saturated fatty acyl chloride, followed by grafting with polycaprolactone-mercaprolactone via a mercapto-olefin click reaction to obtain modified polyvinyl alcohol containing long carbon chains and polycaprolactone segments. The long carbon chains and polycaprolactone segments can both impart certain hydrophobic properties to polyvinyl alcohol, thereby solving the problems of poor water resistance and easy water absorption of ordinary polyvinyl alcohol. In addition, the long carbon chains and polycaprolactone segments can reduce the molecular crystallinity of polyvinyl alcohol, thereby significantly improving the toughness and extensibility of the film layer, so as to avoid the film layer from falling off and play a role in providing long-term waterproof performance to the carton. In this invention, the hydroxyl groups in polyvinyl alcohol are not completely reacted. On the one hand, the retained hydroxyl groups can ensure the adhesion of the waterproof coating. On the other hand, the presence of hydroxyl groups also avoids the excessive hydrophobicity of polyvinyl alcohol, which would lead to agglomeration and flocculation when preparing the waterproof coating emulsion in the later stage, so as to better prepare a uniform and stable water-based environmentally friendly waterproof coating emulsion.
[0021] (2) The modified starch in this invention is prepared by grafting starch with saturated fatty acyl chloride esterification and then carboxymethylation. The modified starch is also endowed with a certain degree of hydrophobicity by introducing long carbon chains; the purpose of carboxymethylation is that: on the one hand, the carboxyl group can undergo cross-linking reaction with the relevant groups in the coating system to improve the density of the coating and enhance the water barrier performance; on the other hand, the carboxyl group itself is a hydrophilic polar group, which can play a role in emulsification, dispersion and stabilization, reduce the interfacial tension of the system, promote the uniform dispersion of each component, avoid agglomeration and stratification, and make the waterproof coating emulsion more stable and the coating more uniform.
[0022] (3) Modified polyvinyl alcohol and modified starch can form a dense coating through hydrogen bonding and cross-linking, which can significantly improve the aging resistance of the coating, while the coating also has excellent adhesion properties.
[0023] (4) In order to further enhance the performance of the waterproof coating emulsion and improve the hydrophobicity of the coating, epoxidized soybean oil was added to this invention. It can crosslink and plasticize with modified polyvinyl alcohol and modified starch, which can improve the density and toughness of the coating. At the same time, epoxidized soybean oil can also improve the aging resistance of the coating and increase the coating life.
[0024] (5) In this invention, all raw material components in the waterproof coating emulsion are natural biodegradable materials and environmentally friendly degradable materials modified from natural biodegradable materials. They do not contain harmful substances such as benzene and aldehydes, and can achieve full biodegradation without causing environmental pollution. Detailed Implementation
