Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a porous laminated mulching film for agricultural use and a method for manufacturing the same. Background Technology
[0002] Agricultural mulching film is a film used to cover the surface of a crop cultivation area, such as furrows, when growing crops. It is used to suppress weed growth in the crop cultivation area, maintain soil moisture, or regulate soil temperature. Additionally, it is used to prevent soil erosion caused by rainwater during rainfall or to create an optimal environment suitable for crop growth.
[0003] These agricultural mulching films are generally made of materials such as polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride, but conventional mulching films have problems such as insufficient permeability, which prevents moisture necessary for crop growth from reaching the ground, and weak impact strength, which causes them to tear easily or break when there is a lot of sunlight.
[0004] To resolve these problems, Japanese Patent Publication No. 1997-300511 A discloses an agricultural thermal insulation material formed by laminating a nonwoven fabric and a porous film. Although this thermal insulation material possesses thermal insulation and water permeability, it prioritizes thermal insulation. Consequently, in the summer, the soil temperature or the surface temperature of the thermal insulation material rises too high, which can cause the above-ground parts of crops to wither easily or the roots to rot. In other words, there is a problem in that it is difficult to use this agricultural thermal insulation material continuously throughout the cultivation period. Furthermore, it still has the problem of having low strength.
[0005] Accordingly, there is a need to develop a new laminated mulching film that has excellent breathability and moisture permeability to prevent soil waterlogging or high temperature, and thus has a soil temperature-lowering effect so that it can be used during the cultivation period, while also having significantly improved tensile strength, elongation, and tear strength, and thus excellent durability. The problem to be solved
[0006] Accordingly, one objective of the present invention is to provide a porous laminated mulching film for agriculture that has excellent breathability and moisture permeability to prevent soil from becoming waterlogged or hot, and thus has a soil temperature lowering effect so that it can be used during the cultivation period, while also having significantly improved tensile strength, elongation, and tear strength and excellent durability.
[0007] In addition, another objective of the present invention is to provide a multi-purpose porous laminated mulching film for agriculture that can induce a temperature-lowering effect in plant cultivation packaging by increasing light reflectivity and whiteness, and prevent fruit cracking and sunscald damage caused by direct reflection by inducing diffuse reflection of direct sunlight.

[0019] In addition, the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture according to one embodiment of the present invention has the advantage of excellent durability due to improved mechanical properties such as tensile strength, elongation, and tear strength.
[0020] In addition, the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture according to one embodiment of the present invention has the effect of inducing a temperature reduction effect in the plant cultivation packaging by increasing light reflectivity and whiteness, and inducing diffuse reflection of direct sunlight, thereby preventing fruit cracking and sunscald damage caused by direct reflection. Specific details for implementing the invention
[0021] The porous laminated mulching film for agriculture and the method for manufacturing the same according to the present invention will be described in detail below.
[0022] Unless otherwise defined herein, all technical and scientific terms have the same meaning as generally understood by one of the art to which the present invention pertains. The terms used in the description of the present invention are merely for the purpose of effectively describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. Additionally, the unit of additives not specifically stated in the specification may be parts by weight.
[0023] Additionally, the singular form used in the specification and attached claims may be intended to include the plural form unless specifically indicated otherwise in the context.
[0024] Throughout the specification describing the present invention, the statement that a part “comprising” a certain component may mean that, unless specifically stated otherwise, it does not exclude other components but may include additional components.
[0025] Unless otherwise specifically defined in this specification, “combination of these” may mean a mixture or copolymerization of the components.
[0026] Unless otherwise specifically defined in this specification, “A and / or B” may mean an embodiment including both A and B simultaneously, or an embodiment selected from A and B.
[0027] The terms "first," "second," etc., as used in this specification may be used to describe various components, but the components should not be limited by these terms. The terms are used solely for the purpose of distinguishing one component from another.
[0028] Black vinyl, a commercially available mulching film, has the disadvantage of causing soil waterlogging or excessive rise in soil temperature during use. Accordingly, research is being conducted to address these disadvantages, but even if the problems of soil waterlogging or excessive rise in soil temperature are resolved, there are limitations to commercialization because mechanical properties such as tensile strength are reduced, leading to significantly reduced durability.
[0029] Accordingly, the inventors have discovered that if a composition is adopted in which two types of linear low-density polyethylene resins with different densities are included as main components as the composition of the porous polyolefin substrate layer included in the laminated mulching film, and a low-density polyethylene resin, calcium carbonate surface-treated with fatty acids, titanium dioxide (TiO2), and cellulose nanofibers are mixed therein, it is possible to induce diffuse reflection of direct sunlight to prevent fruit cracking and sunscald damage caused by direct reflection, and to prevent soil waterlogging and high temperature by having excellent breathability and moisture permeability, while also having excellent mechanical properties such as tensile strength and elongation and improved durability, a porous laminated mulching film for agriculture can be produced.
[0030] An agricultural porous laminated mulching film according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a porous polyolefin substrate layer and a nonwoven fabric layer laminated on one or both sides of the substrate layer, and
[0031] The porous polyolefin substrate layer may comprise (a) a first linear low-density polyethylene having a density of 0.910 g / cm³ to 0.925 g / cm³, (b) a second linear low-density polyethylene having a density of 0.930 g / cm³ to 0.940 g / cm³, (c) low-density polyethylene having a melt index (190 °C, 2.16 kg) according to ASTM D1238 of 5 g / 10 min to 10 g / 10 min, (d) calcium carbonate surface-coated with a saturated fatty acid of C9 to C24, (e) titanium dioxide (TiO2), and (f) cellulose nanofibers. By including the above-described composition, the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture can achieve excellent breathability and moisture permeability, as well as mechanical properties such as tensile strength, excellent elongation, and tear strength, while simultaneously significantly improving light reflectivity and increasing whiteness.
[0032] More specifically, the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture described above can form micropores by including the composition described above, thereby preventing excessive moisture from penetrating into the interior and preventing the soil from becoming waterlogged, and at high temperatures, the internal moisture can be vaporized and released to the outside of the film, at which time the heat of vaporization is absorbed from the soil to suppress the rise in soil temperature, and the smooth movement of air can be enabled.
[0033] In addition, by including the above-described composition in the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture, the light reflectance and whiteness are greatly improved, thereby inducing a temperature-lowering effect in the plant cultivation field, suppressing direct reflection that causes cracking and sunscald damage to the fruit, and more effectively inducing diffuse reflection of direct sunlight, so as to prevent cracking and sunscald damage to the fruit.
[0034] In particular, the above-mentioned porous laminated mulching film for agriculture can possess excellent durability by including cellulose nanofibers instead of conventional polyester fibers or other nanofibers, thereby enhancing mechanical properties such as tensile strength, tear strength, and elongation. Although the reason for this is not clear, it appears that the cellulose nanofibers can enhance mechanical properties while improving breathability through bonding with the polyethylene matrix contained in the porous polyolefin substrate layer.
[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, the porous polyolefin substrate layer may comprise, for every 100 parts by weight of a first linear low-density polyethylene having a density of 0.910 g / cm³ to 0.925 g / cm³, (b) 10 to 40 parts by weight of a second linear low-density polyethylene having a density of 0.930 g / cm³ to 0.940 g / cm³, (c) 10 to 40 parts by weight of low-density polyethylene having a melt index (190 °C, 2.16 kg) according to ASTM D1238 of 5 g / 10 min to 10 g / 10 min, (d) 80 to 200 parts by weight of calcium carbonate surface-coated with a saturated fatty acid of C9 to C24, (e) 3 to 10 parts by weight of titanium dioxide (TiO2), and (f) 0.1 to 3 parts by weight of cellulose nanofibers, but The content range of each composition is not necessarily limited to this.
[0036] By including a composition having the content of the porous polyolefin substrate layer described above, the mechanical properties, air permeability, and moisture permeability of the film can be further improved, and at the same time, the light reflectance and whiteness can be further increased to induce a temperature-lowering effect in the plant cultivation packaging, and direct reflection can be suppressed and diffuse reflection of direct sunlight can be better induced, thereby further preventing fruit cracking and sunscald damage.
[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, the porous polyolefin substrate layer may further include (g) 1 to 10 parts by weight of an anti-UV agent with respect to 100 parts by weight of (a) a first linear low-density polyethylene having a density of 0.910 g / cm³ to 0.925 g / cm³, but the content range is not necessarily limited thereto.
[0038] In one embodiment of the present invention, the porous polyolefin substrate layer may further comprise (h) 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a lubricant and (i) 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of an antioxidant, based on 100 parts by weight of (a) a first linear low-density polyethylene having a density of 0.910 g / cm³ to 0.925 g / cm³, but the content range thereof is not necessarily limited thereto. By further comprising the lubricant and the antioxidant within the above content ranges in the porous polyolefin substrate layer, the mechanical properties such as tensile strength and elongation of the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture can be further improved, and the durability can be greatly improved.
[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, by including the calcium carbonate, an increase in whiteness for a higher light reflectance of the film can be achieved, and the calcium carbonate may have an average particle size of 1 μm to 10 μm, preferably 1 μm to 5 μm, and a maximum particle size of 15 μm, preferably 10 μm or less, but is not necessarily limited thereto. By including calcium carbonate having a size within the above-described range in the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture, not only is there no problem of deterioration in physical properties such as defects occurring during film manufacturing due to reduced dispersibility of calcium carbonate in the polyethylene resin, or the surface being uneven and the film tearing easily, but also superior tensile strength, elongation, tear strength, breathability, moisture permeability, and light reflectance can be achieved.
[0040] In particular, in one embodiment of the present invention, the calcium carbonate is a type of coating agent, C9 to C 24The surface may be treated using saturated fatty acids, wherein the saturated fatty acids may have a melting point of 40°C to 80°C, but are not necessarily limited thereto. That is, saturated fatty acids having a low melting point and satisfying both hydrophilicity and lipophilicity simultaneously can play a role in further breaking up the aggregation of calcium carbonate and promoting dispersion within the polyethylene resin. Specific examples of saturated fatty acids having a melting point of 40°C to 80°C include lauric acid with a melting point of 45°C, myristic acid with two melting points of 54°C and 58°C, palmitic acid with a melting point of 63°C, and stearic acid with a melting point of 71°C, but are not necessarily limited thereto.
[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, the porous polyolefin substrate layer of the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture may further include additives such as flame retardants and antibacterial agents that are commonly used, in addition to the composition described above.
[0042] In an agricultural porous laminated mulching film according to one embodiment of the present invention, the nonwoven fabric laminated on one or both sides may be a nonwoven fabric containing a polyolefin or a polyester-based resin.
[0043] In the present invention, the nonwoven fabric is laminated with a porous polyolefin substrate. The porous polyolefin substrate and the nonwoven fabric can be bonded by heat pressing or by using an adhesive. In addition to achieving the effect of improving strength, bonding is possible even when heated to a low temperature during heat bonding, thereby achieving improved adhesion while maintaining breathability.
[0044] At this time, it is preferable to set the temperature during the heat sealing to a range of 80°C to 150°C so that the porous polyolefin substrate is not completely melted, thereby maintaining breathability even after bonding.
[0045] The nonwoven fabric of the present invention may be a spunbond nonwoven fabric, and the spunbond nonwoven fabric may include a polyester resin. Alternatively, in one embodiment, it may be manufactured into a filament having a core made of a polyester resin and a polyethylene resin having a sheath structure. This allows strength to be achieved through the resin, and at the same time, the adhesion to the olefin resin used in the porous polyolefin substrate can be improved by the polyethylene resin surface-coated with a sheath structure. Accordingly, since adhesion is possible even when heated to a low temperature during heat bonding, it is possible to achieve improved adhesion while maintaining breathability.
[0046] The above spunbond nonwoven fabric can achieve strength as well as adhesion and breathability by using a fiber manufactured by spinning a filament made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resin as a core and a polyethylene resin with a melting point of 100°C to 150°C coated in a sheath structure on the surface of the core.
[0047] The spunbond nonwoven fabric above may be suitable for achieving the final physical properties, but is not limited thereto, to have a thickness of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, a tensile strength in the MD direction of 10 kg / 5 cm to 25 kg / 5 cm, a tensile strength in the CD direction of 5 kg / 5 cm to 15 kg / 5 cm, an elongation in the MD direction of 40% to 80%, an elongation in the CD direction of 40% to 80%, and a tear strength of 0.1 kg to 1.5 kg.
[0048] The present invention enables the production of an agricultural porous laminated film having breathability that allows moisture to pass through but does not allow water or water droplets to pass through, without the need for a separate process to impart breathability after lamination, by laminating a nonwoven fabric and a porous polyolefin substrate by the method described above.
[0049] In addition, in one embodiment of the present invention, the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture may have a basis weight of 10 g / m² to 100 g / m² and a moisture permeability of 4,000 g / m²*24hr to 15,000 g / m²*24hr, specifically, a basis weight of 20 g / m² to 80 g / m² and a moisture permeability of 5,000 g / m²*24hr to 10,000 g / m²*24hr, and more specifically, a basis weight of 20 g / m² to 50 g / m² and a moisture permeability of 6,000 g / m²*24hr to 10,000 g / m²*24hr, but is not necessarily limited thereto.
[0050] As the above-mentioned porous laminated mulching film for agriculture satisfies the basis weight and moisture permeability of the aforementioned range, moisture control is smooth, preventing excessive moisture from penetrating into the interior and thus preventing the soil from becoming waterlogged. Furthermore, at high temperatures, the internal moisture can evaporate into water vapor and be released more easily to the outside of the film, thereby absorbing heat of vaporization from the soil to further suppress the rise in soil temperature and enabling more smooth air movement.
[0051] In one embodiment of the present invention, the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture may have a tensile strength in the MD (Machine direction, warp) direction of 3,000 gf / 25 mm to 6,000 gf / 25 mm and a tensile strength in the CD (Cross direction, weft) direction of 1,000 gf / 25 mm to 4,000 gf / 25 mm, and specifically, the tensile strength in the MD direction may be 3,000 gf / 25 mm to 5,000 gf / 25 mm and the tensile strength in the CD direction may be 1,000 gf / 25 mm to 2,500 gf / 25 mm, but is not necessarily limited thereto.
[0052] In one embodiment of the present invention, the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture may have an elongation in the MD direction of 50% to 200% and an elongation in the CD direction of 50% to 200%, specifically, an elongation in the MD direction of 70% to 200% and an elongation in the CD direction of 90% to 200%, and more specifically, an elongation in the MD direction of 80% to 150% and an elongation in the CD direction of 100% to 180%, but is not necessarily limited thereto.
[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture may have a tear strength in the MD direction of 500 gf / 50 mm to 2,500 gf / 50 mm and a tear strength in the CD direction of 600 gf / 50 mm to 3,000 gf / 50 mm, specifically, the tear strength in the MD direction may be 600 gf / 50 mm to 2,000 gf / 50 mm and the tear strength in the CD direction may be 700 gf / 50 mm to 2,500 gf / 50 mm, and more specifically, the tear strength in the MD direction may be 700 gf / 50 mm to 1,500 gf / 50 mm and the tear strength in the CD direction may be 900 gf / 50 mm to 2,000 gf / 50 mm, but is not necessarily limited thereto.
[0055] Another embodiment of the present invention comprises, for 100 parts by weight of a first linear low-density polyethylene having a density of 0.910 g / cm³ to 0.925 g / cm³, a density of 0.930 g / cm³ 10 to 40 parts by weight of second linear low-density polyethylene having a density of 0.940 g / cm³, 10 to 40 parts by weight of low-density polyethylene having a melt index (190°C, 2.16 kg) according to ASTM D 1238 of 5 g / 10 min to 10 g / 10 min, C9 to C 24A method for manufacturing an agricultural porous laminated mulching film may be provided, comprising the steps of: mixing 80 to 200 parts by weight of calcium carbonate surface-coated with saturated fatty acids, 3 to 10 parts by weight of titanium dioxide (TiO2), and 0.1 to 3 parts by weight of cellulose nanofibers, and melt-extruding to produce a compound composition for a porous polyolefin substrate layer; extruding the compound composition for the porous polyolefin substrate layer to form a porous polyolefin sheet; and laminating a nonwoven fabric on one or both sides of the porous polyolefin sheet and applying pressure to produce a porous laminated mulching film.
[0056] At this time, in the step of preparing the compound composition for the porous polyolefin substrate layer for agricultural use, the melting temperature of the process of obtaining a porous polyolefin substrate compound composition in a pelt state by mixing all the compositions, injecting the mixture into a twin-screw extruder, and then melt-extruding it may be 200 ℃ to 300 ℃, specifically 210 ℃ to 270 ℃, and more specifically 220 ℃ to 250 ℃, but is not necessarily limited thereto.
[0057] In addition, in the step of forming the porous polyolefin sheet, the forming method of feeding the manufactured pellets into an extruder to obtain a base sheet may use a T-die forming machine, but is not necessarily limited thereto, and the manufactured base sheet may be produced into an agricultural porous laminated mulching film through a stretching process, wherein the stretching may be performed at a stretching temperature of 50°C to 100°C and the stretching ratio may be 2 to 4 times, but is not necessarily limited thereto.
[0058] In the step of manufacturing the porous laminated mulching film above, an agricultural porous laminated mulching film can be manufactured by applying a hot melt adhesive to the manufactured porous polyolefin sheet and then laminating a nonwoven fabric, and the hot melt adhesive conditions may be carried out at 80°C to 100°C, but are not limited thereto.
[0060] In addition, since the specific composition and content of the above compositions are the same as those described in the description of the porous laminated mulching film for agriculture, such description is omitted below.
[0062] The present invention will be explained in more detail below based on the following examples and comparative examples. However, the following examples and comparative examples are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
