The Research of Biomass Biodegradable Material Microstructure Impact on Performance

Abstract:

Green and biodegradable may degrade to the direction of the main purposes for cushion packaging material. This paper the bubble growth mechanism of the material in the molding process, the microstructure of four kinds different foaming agent content of biodegradable materials have been studied by using a scanning electron microscope micro-chemical analysis for plant fibers, starch-based materials, through the foam forming process biomass biodegradable materials research object. The results showed that the biomass material in the biodegradable plant fibers are mutually connected to form a three-dimensional network structure of the cross; foaming agent content of 1.0%, the raw material biodegradable material having a structure with a closed air pockets distributed more evenly, which kind of uniform material structure ensures good impact resistance, rebound and thermal insulation.
