In April 2022, Cowin delivered PLA degradable sheet production line with capacity of 500kg/hr to foreign client, This customer purchased COWIN’s granulation production line in 2021. Through COWIN’s technical after-sales team, the customer gradually dispelled his concern that he had never used extruder equipment, and purchased sheet line in 2022.PLA sheet production line is applicable to the production of PLA and modified PLA.
Polylactic acid (PLA) is a new kind of high molecular material which is friendly to the environment and has excellent performance. It has good biocompatibility. It can be degraded into lactic acid by microorganisms or in acid-base aqueous solution medium, and finally completely decomposed into carbon dioxide and water. It does not cause any pollution and harm to the environment.
The degradation of polylactic acid is divided into two stages:
- Pure chemical hydrolysis to lactic acid monomer: it is degraded by microorganisms and decomposed into carbon dioxide and water. The food cup made of polylactic acid can be completely degraded in only 60 days, truly achieving the dual effects of ecology and economy.
- Fossil based biodegradable plastics: the leading products are PBAT and PBS petroleum based biodegradable plastics, which mainly refer to biodegradable plastics made by polymerization of monomers produced in the petrochemical industry chain. At present, such plastics mainly include PBS、PBSA、PCL、PBAT.
PLA can be molded like ordinary polymer materials, such as extrusion, tape casting, film blowing, injection molding, bottle blowing, fiber molding, etc. The prepared films, sheets and fibers can be widely used in the fields of clothing, textiles, non-woven fabrics, packaging, agriculture, forestry, medical and health products, daily necessities and so on.
The main target markets of biodegradable plastics are plastic packaging film, agricultural film, disposable plastic bags and disposable plastic tableware. The PLA sheet production line customized by COWIN is also mainly used in the disposable plastic products industry.
