5¡¢modified plastics development trend

5.1  blending modification

In addition to filling modified outside, plastic modified another big branch for blending modification. Compared with filling modification, the blending modification in product quality and yield relatively backward, cannot satisfy the demand of the market. Blending modification is to increase an important means of plastic raw materials resources, only on petroleum chemical synthetic co., LTD., kinds of resin, can't satisfy the all kinds of plastic products of the production need. Blending modification are based on one of the resin as matrix, with the other one or more team points to modified resin matrix resin. The performance of different resin according to a certain proportion mixing, through the double screw extruder or other mixing equipment, its mixing into with the original resin has different performance of the new material, also called plastic alloy. Plastic alloy has many types, such as plastic and rubber (elastomer) alloy, HDPE and LLDPE or LDPE and LLDPE. Can be two yuan, also but three yuan or multiple.

5.2  filling modification

Filling modification at present mostly adopts the masterbatch filling method, because the method simple process, easy production, the same kind of masterbatch can be used a variety of products, and other advantages, the deficiency is often appear because of dispersion is bad and influence the product quality. Many manufacturers some products, in order to ensure the quality of products, in the hope that the special material. Practice has proved, for the same kind of products in guarantee identical quality requirement conditions, using special material can increase 5% inorganic powder dosage, can save 5% of the resin. For filling masterbatch production enterprises, the production of modified special material than production filling masterbatch can get better economic benefit.

5.3  plastic wood composite (WPC)

Plastic wood composite materials is to develop more successful and has a broad application value and prospects of the development of modified products. Plastic wood composite materials from the composite form to see has many, of which the most widely used is thermoplastic resin and plant powder or fiber composite. Plastic wood composite materials with high hardness, strength, water resistance, stability, not changeful form, coloring, secondary processing, and other features, is a kind of resource conservation and environment friendly ideal material. WPC is generally composed of three kinds of component composition: wood powder (plant powder), processing aid and resin. Wood powder is by lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose constitute, belongs to the natural polymer, liquidity is poor, because it contains a certain moisture and a weak acid, after heated can decompose and release large amounts of gas, and at the same time, acid increase to screw can cause chemical corrosion, such as high temperature will also be carbonized zoom. Another W P C itself heat transfer coefficient is low, forming hard to cooling, time is too long easy deformation. The above various factors all can cause production efficiency is low, the yield is low, the product quality is not stable.

5.4  renewable plastic modification

With the development of the plastics industry, waste plastic how to reasonable disposal, and lessen the pollution of the environment, and realize resources to maximize, is always people concerns. Practice has proved that recycling is the best way to solve the waste plastic. Our country has rich resources of waste plastic, according to relevant data reported, at present our country every year 1 will produce more than 000 t waste plastic, plus imports, a total of 1 600 ~ 1 8 million t, accounting for the total plastic dosage of 1/3. In theory renewable plastic modification principle and modification methods and new material is basic and same, the difference is reworked material modification of strong pertinence, through the test and analysis, to determine the reworked material to the extent of loss of comprehensive performance, to choose modification methods. Specific approach is: first measurement reworked material basic properties, such as ash content, melt flow rate, tensile strength, elongation, bending and impact strength. General resin melt flow rate is larger, the higher the degree of degradation, the comprehensive mechanical properties of the loss. And PE is different, the melt flow rate is smaller degradation degree is higher, because PE degradation in the process, can produce partial crosslinking. According to the analysis results, determine the modification scheme. For renewable plastic, generally USES the blending modification methods, improve the material toughness and strength, can use the same kind of different performance between reworked material or additions new material methods, and use the most way is by and elastomers such as b/c rubber, SBS and SEBS or EVA blending to improve material toughness, through the fill and fiberglass or other fiber material to improve the strength of the reworked material. In order to reduce costs, the modified material usually use reworked material. In the use of performance guarantee the premise of blending modification can also fill with some inorganic powder, such as fill with talcum powder can increase the rigid material, fill and wollastonite or other acicular powder can increase the tensile strength.
