Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention discloses a high-barrier polylactic acid packaging material and its preparation method, belonging to the field of organic polymer materials technology. Background Technology
[0002] Polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable material derived from renewable plant resources, can be completely degraded into carbon dioxide and water by microorganisms in the natural environment after use, with low energy consumption and minimal pollution during its production process. Due to its excellent transparency, renewability, and food safety, its application in food packaging is increasingly widespread, and it is expected to become one of the core materials replacing traditional petroleum-based plastics. However, PLA's high molecular chain rigidity and slow crystallization rate result in high brittleness, which is detrimental to transportation and transshipment. The heat distortion temperature of PLA materials is typically below 60°C, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-temperature scenarios such as hot beverage filling and microwave heating, severely limiting its large-scale application in food packaging. Furthermore, PLA has poor barrier properties against oxygen and water vapor; oxygen penetration accelerates food oxidation and spoilage, while moisture ingress causes dry foods to become damp, affecting their shelf life.
[0003] Prior art with publication number CN120118494A discloses a high-temperature resistant, high-toughness, controllable degradable polylactic acid material, the raw materials comprising, by mass percentage: 40% 60% polylactic acid, 10% 20% polylactic acid Polyurethane block copolymer, 20% 40% active talc and 1% The addition of 5% additives improves the heat resistance of the material, but its barrier properties are poor. Prior art, disclosed in CN103540111B, discloses a high-strength, high-temperature resistant, fully degradable polylactic acid (PLA) sheet and its preparation method. The sheet is prepared by combining 50%-78% PLA, 10%-30% toughening components, 10%-30% inorganic fillers, and 1%-3% other additives. The inorganic fillers consist of glass fiber, talc, wollastonite, and mica powder. However, the inorganic fillers have poor compatibility with the PLA matrix and are prone to agglomeration, leading to increased material haze.
[0004] In summary, existing polylactic acid (PLA) materials suffer from poor material compatibility and weak barrier properties. Therefore, developing a PLA material that simultaneously possesses high barrier properties, high toughness, and good transparency has become a pressing technical challenge in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a high-barrier polylactic acid packaging material and its preparation method, and achieves the following objectives: to prepare a polylactic acid packaging material with strong barrier ability, good toughness and good transparency.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the following technical solution is adopted: A high-barrier polylactic acid packaging material, the raw materials comprising, by weight: 60-78 parts PLLA particles, 12-19.5 parts PDLA particles, 7-12 parts polycaprolactone, 4-8 parts lactic acid-lactide oligomer, 11-15 parts polylactic acid modified functional masterbatch, and 0.6-1 parts anti-hydrolysis agent.
[0007] The lactic acid-lactide oligomer comprises, by weight, 44-50 parts of L-lactic acid, 90-115 parts of D,L-lactide, and 0.1-0.3 parts of titanium-zinc catalyst.
[0008] The polylactic acid modified functional masterbatch comprises, by weight, 12-15 parts of zinc borate with low water content, 0.5-1 part of silane coupling agent, 10-15 parts of anhydrous ethanol, 22-28 parts of lactic acid oligomer, and 12-20 parts of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH).
[0009] The zinc borate with low water content is zinc borate with 3,5 water content, and its chemical formula is 2ZnO·3B2O3·3.5H2O.
[0010] The lactic acid oligomer is an L-lactic acid oligomer with a molecular weight of 2000~4000.
[0011] The ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer has an ethylene content of 30-32%.
[0012] The anti-hydrolysis agent is polycarbodiimide with a degree of polymerization of 2500-3000.
[0013] The polycaprolactone has a number-average molecular weight range of 80,000 to 120,000 and a water content of <0.05%.
[0014] The PLLA particles: The number average molecular weight of PLLA ranges from 150,000 to 200,000, and the water content is <0.05%.
[0015] The PDLA particles have a number-average molecular weight range of 120,000 to 180,000 and a water content of <0.05%.
[0016] The silane coupling agent is one or more of γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, and γ-methacryloyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane.
[0017] The titanium-zinc catalyst is obtained by compounding tetrabutyl titanate and zinc lactate, with a mass ratio of tetrabutyl titanate to zinc lactate of 1:(2~3).
[0018] A method for preparing a high-barrier polylactic acid packaging material includes the following steps: Step 1: Preparation of lactic acid-lactide oligomers L-lactic acid, D,L-lactide, and a titanium-zinc catalyst were added to a reactor, and nitrogen gas was introduced for protection. The temperature was raised to 145-160°C, and the reaction was stirred for 4-5 hours. The nitrogen gas was then stopped, and the reactor was evacuated to a pressure < -0.08 MPa. The reaction was carried out under reduced pressure for 2-3 hours. After the reaction was completed, the product was discharged while hot, cooled, and granulated to obtain a lactic acid-lactide oligomer with a number average molecular weight of 3000.
[0019] Step 2: Preparation of polylactic acid modified functional masterbatch A silane coupling agent is mixed evenly with anhydrous ethanol to obtain a silane coupling agent solution. Zinc borate with low water content is dried in a 100℃ oven for 4-6 hours to remove surface adsorbed water. After natural cooling, it is added to a high-speed mixer and stirred. The silane coupling agent solution is sprayed onto the zinc borate with low water content through the top of the mixer. The mixture is stirred at 300-550 r / min for 1.5-2 hours, then heated to 85-90℃ and stirred for another 0.5-1 hour to evaporate excess ethanol. The material is discharged after cooling to room temperature. After discharge, the material is pulverized and passed through a 2000-mesh sieve to obtain modified zinc borate with low water content.
[0020] Modified low-water zinc borate, lactic acid oligomer, and EVOH are added to a mixer. The mixer speed is controlled at 90~140 r / min, and the mixture is mixed at 180~190℃ for 8~20 min. The mixture is then extruded and granulated to obtain polylactic acid modified functional masterbatch.
[0021] Step 3: Mixing and extrusion PLLA granules, PDLA granules, polycaprolactone, lactic acid-lactide oligomer, anti-hydrolysis agent, and polylactic acid modified functional masterbatch are added to a mixer and premixed at 76-88℃ for 20-60 minutes to obtain a mixture. The mixture is then added to a twin-screw extruder for melt extrusion to obtain high-barrier polylactic acid packaging material. The temperature control of the twin-screw extruder during melt extrusion is as follows: feed section 150-160℃, melt section 180-195℃, and die head section 170-190℃.
[0022] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1. The high-barrier polylactic acid packaging material prepared by this invention has an oxygen permeability of 1.22~1.75 cm. 3 / (m 2 (24h), water vapor transmission rate is 0.88~1.16 g / (m²). 2(24h) It exhibits excellent barrier properties against water and oxygen; the polylactic acid modified functional masterbatch contains modified low-water zinc borate, which itself has good heat resistance and transparency. After surface modification with a silane coupling agent, the interfacial bonding force with the PLA matrix is enhanced, which can improve heat resistance through physical barrier effect while maintaining the transparency of the material. The modified low-water zinc borate, after dispersion, can prolong the penetration path of water and gas molecules in polylactic acid materials, and synergistically enhance the barrier properties of the material with EVOH.
[0023] 2. The high-barrier polylactic acid packaging material prepared by this invention has a heat distortion temperature of 109~118℃, a haze of 5.1~6.4%, and a cantilever beam impact strength of 10.5~11.7kJ / m². 2 It is said to possess high transparency, high toughness, and excellent high-temperature resistance. Lactic acid-lactide oligomers have a structure similar to PLA and good compatibility. Adding lactic acid-lactide oligomers to polylactic acid helps induce PLLA and PDLA to form SC crystals, improving material strength and heat resistance; the addition of anti-hydrolysis agents can inhibit hydrolytic degradation and prevent material performance degradation at high temperatures.
