Biological macromolecule material commercial to promote accelerated
In recent years, the governments and related enterprises of the positive efforts of biological macromolecule material, great progress has been made to commercialize advance began to accelerate. Sources, however, more abundant renewable raw materials has become the key to the development of biological base material, how to transform the economic, cellulose and lignin effectively use, is a difficult problem in the field, also is the important direction. On October 16, 2014 held in ningbo international chemical new materials conference, ningbo materials and engineering research institute of the Chinese academy of sciences researcher Zhu Jin of biological materials development present situation, application practice, constraints and introduce attendees attention of potential business opportunities, etc.

Countries actively promote
According to Zhu Jin, the application of polymer materials has been penetrated into every aspect of human life. In 2013, the global plastic production more than 280 million tons, of which more than 60 million tons of production in our country, the consumption of more than 70 million tons. In the next few years, the world especially plastics production and consumption in emerging markets will continue to fast. However, nearly 99% of the polymer materials derived from petrochemical resources, and petrochemical resources are facing a growing crisis dries up, and the increasingly serious environmental problem. In such a background, the research and development of degradable biomaterials polymer materials to replace petroleum base polymer material has urgent practical significance.
To this end, some multinational companies such as basf, dow chemical in succession will bio-based materials as the most priority to the development of business. The United States through the biomass research and development act, and set up a project office and biomass, biomass technology advisory committee, puts forward the biomass technology roadmap. The eu by biological plastic products comply with European environmental standard of green label to encourage consumers to buy, and give bioplastics research units and enterprises preferential policies. Our country also made it clear to develop the renewable resources, expanding biological products research and production capacity.
Commercialization is accelerating
Zhu Jin says, at the moment the base polymer materials research field mainly involves thermoplastic polymer, the four major fields of thermosetting polymers, adhesives, plastic additives, mainly used in plastics, fiber, foam, composite materials, medical materials, coatings, adhesives and other industries. Biological macromolecule material after years of development, commercialization are accelerating in recent years. Although compared with plastic consumption, biological base material proportion is less than 2%, but from 2009 to 2009, the global use increasing at the rate of 34% a year. The huge market growth space industry.
Modification of poly (lactic acid) (PLA) research and development, for example. A biodegradable poly (lactic acid) (PLA), renewable raw materials (starch, cellulose), high strength, high modulus, good transparency, carbon reduction and environmental protection, and many other advantages, but at the same time speed is slow, poor transparency after poor heat resistance, heat resistance, impact resistance is poor, the disadvantages of high prices and low melt strength. Therefore, Zhu Jin team improve the heat resistance of poly (lactic acid) (PLA), speed up the crystallization and reduce the cost on the study of modification. By adding nucleating agent, toughening agent, plasticizer, modification of heat resistant poly (lactic acid from more than 15 minutes to half crystallization speed is less than 1 minute, the molding time from more than 10 minutes to less than 1 minute, heat resistant up to 120 ℃ or above, more than 1 times higher impact resistance, heat resistance after the transparency, good. The results have garden in guangzhou jia new materials co., LTD., to realize industrialization.
In addition, can be no aldehyde soy based wood adhesives in plywood, density board, floor, particle board production is used to replace polluting hyaluronic acid, melamine glue, phenolic glue, etc. Our country is the world's largest producer and exporter, furniture, wooden floor, wooden door products man-made board annual output value of more than 450 billion yuan, production of man-made board adhesive is one of the most important ingredients needed. Has no biological adhesives containing formaldehyde, renewable resources, can form nano structure, etc, but there is also a poor resistance to water or water resistance. Zhu Jin team development to overcome the no aldehyde soy based wood adhesives xanthan gum poor water resistance and low bonding strength, shortcomings and so on craft demanding, dry strength of all the indexes reach or even exceed the level of the traditional rubber. The results of the first prize in the only Chinese forestry industry innovation last year. Has been built in ningbo, guangzhou, linyi each 1 set of 20000 tons/year production line. Previously, a company can produce the products only the United States, but the price is higher than domestic nearly 1 times.
Raw material is the key
Wide prospect of biological macromolecule material, but also faces serious challenges in the process of industrialization. At 20% of the plastic, polymer materials need raw materials more than 500 million tons/year, and now the renewable raw materials such as starch, vegetable oil, sugar cane, rosin, etc., due to the people involved with food problem for constrained production, unable to support the large-scale development of the industry. Sources, therefore, in the long run, more abundant renewable raw materials is the key.
At present, ningbo will cellulose and lignin are studied as the available resources. Cellulose and lignin is one of nature's most extensive and maximum renewable resource, its production are more than 100 billion tons/year, more than today's oil reserves, how to convert cellulose and lignin economy effectively into sugar compound such as glucose, then on chemical and biological methods to produce fatty compounds or polymer monomer, is the biological basis for the development of polymer industry a problem. Anyway, biological macromolecule material will become one of the important ways to replace petroleum base polymer.
