Starch-Based Biodegradable Packaging Materials of Antimicrobial

Abstract:

With the gradual increase of the global environmental awareness and environmentally friendly voice rising, the deal with the problem of plastic waste has become the focus of public opinion around the world has also become a hot topic of scientific research. This paper can be made of polystyrene as main raw material, adding starch and antibacterial agents containing silver nanoscale titanium dioxide, and by the synthesis of biodegradable packaging materials performance. The results showed that: 0.25mm sheet of polystyrene made of the thickness of the main raw material by injection molding process, and factors affecting the performance of the sheet, the better the performance of the film material process parameters. According to the definition of the GB/T1040-92 national standards of the People's Republic of China "plastic tensile properties of test methods and GB/T20197-2006 degradable plastics, classification, marking, and degradation of the performance requirements" and GB4789.3-94 "State Microbiological examination of coli form bacteria in the standard of food hygiene as determined by experimental methods for testing. The orthogonal experiment results show that the expandable polystyrene Dosage: 80%; starch dosage: 2%; toluene, acetone and put ratio: 3:2 .The mechanics of materials, degradation, and antimicrobial properties.
