Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein biologisch abbaubares Verbund material auf der Basis von gehärtetem Stärkeschaum und ein Verfahren zu seiner Herstellung.The invention relates to a biodegradable composite material based on hardened starch foam and a Process for its manufacture.
Derartige Verbundmaterialien können als Verpackungsmaterial, als Baumaterial etwa zur Kälte-, Wärme- oder Schallisola tion, oder auch als Stoßschutz zum Einsatz kommen.Such composite materials can be used as packaging material, as building material, for example for cold, heat or sound insulation tion, or can also be used as shock protection.
Herkömmliche Schaumverpackungen aus Polystyrol (Styropor) insbesondere für Nahrungsmittel sind vor allem in der Ent sorgung problematisch. Dieser Kunststoff verrottet praktisch nicht und ist erst nach einem Sortiervorgang recycelbar.Conventional polystyrene (styrofoam) foam packaging especially for food are mostly in the ent problematic. This plastic practically rots not and can only be recycled after a sorting process.
Aus der US-PS 5 035 930 sind biologisch abbaubare Produkte und deren Herstellungsverfahren bekannt, wobei die Produkte aus ausschließlich aus Stärke in einem Extrusionsverfahren hergestellten und gehärteten Schaum bestehen und als Form körper für Verpackungszwecke genutzt werden.Biodegradable products are known from US Pat. No. 5,035,930 and their manufacturing process known, the products made exclusively from starch in an extrusion process manufactured and hardened foam exist and as a mold body can be used for packaging purposes.
Die US-PS 3 661 697 zeigt ein Verbundmaterial und dessen Herstellungsverfahren, das aus Polyethylen, Stärke und einer Papierbasis besteht und schichtweise aufgebaut ist. Die Stärke wird hierbei nicht geschäumt.U.S. Patent 3,661,697 shows a composite material and its Manufacturing process that consists of polyethylene, starch and one Paper base exists and is built up in layers. The Starch is not foamed here.
Bei einem weiteren bereits bekannten Verfahren wird statt eines Kunststoffes eine Stärkesuspension verwendet. In ein beheiz tes Formwerkzeug eingebracht, verdampfen flüssige Anteile und schäumen bzw. blähen die Suspension auf. Das Material bleibt über eine bestimmte Verweilzeit in der Form, wobei es unter Feuchtigkeitsaustritt trocknet und aushärtet. Zum Ent formen wird die Form geöffnet und der Schaumteil ausgewor fen. Solchermaßen hergestellte Schaumteile verrotten und sind recycelbar. Außerdem haben sie gewisse kälte-, wärmeisolierende sowie stoßabsorbierende Eigenschaften. Sie haben jedoch den Nachteil einer verhältnismäßig geringen Festigkeit, wenn ihre Wandstärke bzw. ihr Gewicht nicht allzu hoch sind. Außerdem sind sie aufgrund ihrer porösen Oberflächen für gewisse Anwendungen ungeeignet, insbesondere schlecht bedruckbar.In another known method, instead of one Plastic used a starch suspension. In a heated When the mold is inserted, liquid components evaporate and foam or inflate the suspension. The material stays in shape for a certain amount of time, taking it dries and hardens with the escape of moisture. To Ent the mold is opened and the foam part is squeezed out fen. Foam parts produced in this way rot and are recyclable. They also have certain cold, heat-insulating and shock-absorbing properties. they however, have the disadvantage of being relatively small Strength if their wall thickness or weight is not are too high. They are also because of their porous Surfaces unsuitable for certain applications, in particular badly printable.
Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein biologisch abbaubares Schichtverbundmaterial zur Verfügung zu stellen, das sich durch hohe Festigkeit, eine einfache und kostengünstige Herstellung und eine vielseitige Anwendbar keit auszeichnet.In contrast, the invention is based on the object biodegradable layered composite material available represent that by high strength, a simple and inexpensive to manufacture and versatile excellence.
Diese Aufgabe wird mit den Merkmalen der Patentansprüche ge löst.This task is ge with the features of the claims solves.
Bei der Lösung geht die Erfindung von dem Grundgedanken aus, Stärke zu verschäumen, zu härten, sowie gleichzeitig mit einem weiteren Schichtmaterial zu verbinden und somit ein Schichtverbund material zu erhalten. Dieses weitere Schichtmaterial kann z. B. in den Stärkeschaum eingelagert und/oder einseitig oder beid seitig an diesen angelagert sein und dient als Verstärkung, als Träger oder Substrat.In the solution, the invention is based on the basic idea Foam starch, harden, and at the same time with to connect another layer material and thus a layer composite get material. This additional layer material can e.g. B. in the starch foam stored and / or one-sided or both be attached to these and serve as reinforcement, as a carrier or substrate.
Die Erfindung hat folgende Vorteile.The invention has the following advantages.
Es kann Stärke ohne weitere Zusätze verwendet werden. Es können die unterschiedlichsten Materialien mit dem Stärke schaum zu einem Schichtverbundmaterial zusammengesetzt werden, ins besondere läßt sich über das weitere Material das Schichtverbund material leicht bedrucken oder färben. Das Schichtverbundmaterial ist mechanisch stabil und besitzt aufgrund der Porosität des gehärteten Stärkeschaums ausgezeichnete Schall-, Temperatur- und elektrische Isolationseigenschaften. Außerdem es ist ein wirkungsvoller Stoßschutz. Besonders vorteilhaft ist die Er findung als Material für Verpackungen von Süßwaren, da das Verbundmaterial eine entsprechende werbewirksame Bedruckung ermöglicht, sowie die für Süßwaren erforderlichen Stoßschutz und Wärmeisolation gewährleistet.Starch can be used without further additives. It can use the most diverse materials with the strength foam to be assembled into a layered composite material, ins the layered composite can be special about the other material lightly print or dye material. The layered composite material is mechanically stable and due to the porosity of the hardened starch foam excellent sound, temperature and electrical insulation properties. Besides, it is a effective shock protection. The Er is particularly advantageous as a material for packaging confectionery, since the Composite material an appropriate advertising effective printing enables, as well as the shock protection required for confectionery and thermal insulation guaranteed.
Im folgenden soll die Erfindung näher erläutert werden.The invention will be explained in more detail below.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verbundmaterial besteht aus gehärtetem Stärkeschaum, der mit mindestens einem weiteren Material zu einem Verbundmaterial zusammengefügt ist. Vorzugsweise ist das weitere Material ein Flachmaterial, das vorzugsweise einseitig von dem Stärkeschaum bedeckt ist.The composite material according to the invention consists of hardened Starch foam made with at least one other material is joined to a composite material. Preferably the further material is a flat material, which is preferably is covered on one side by the starch foam.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren geht von einer Stärkesuspen sion aus, die native Stärke und/oder modifizierte Stärke enthalten kann. Es kommt native Stärke jeglichen Ursprungs in natürlicher oder Hybridform, z. B. Kartoffeln, Manjok, Reis, Mais, wachsiger Mais, Mais mit hohem Amylosegehalt, Getreide wie Weizen und Fraktionen, die hieraus hergestellt sein können, Gerste oder Sorghum, in Betracht. Die modifi zierte Stärke ist ein auf physikalischem und/oder chemischem Weg erzeugte Stärkederivat. Bevorzugt kommt eine wäßrige Stärkesuspension zum Einsatz, die mit einem insbesondere lebensmittelverträglichem Farbstoff eingefärbt sein kann.The method according to the invention is based on a starch suspension sion out, the native starch and / or modified starch may contain. There comes native strength of any origin in natural or hybrid form, e.g. B. potatoes, manjok, Rice, corn, waxy corn, corn with a high amylose content, Cereals like wheat and fractions made from it may be barley or sorghum. The modifi graced starch is one on physical and / or chemical Path generated starch derivative. An aqueous solution is preferred Starch suspension for use with a particular food-compatible dye can be colored.
Außerdem kommt bei dem Verfahren ein weiteres Material zum Einsatz, bei dem es sich vorzugsweise um Papier, Pappe, Kar ton, Textil, Holzfurnier, Leder, Kunstleder, Folien aus synthetischen, biopolymeren und metallen Werkstoffen sowie Kombinationen der vorgenannten Materialien handelt. Dabei handelt es sich vorzugsweise um ein Flachmaterial. Das weitere Material wird durch die Endform des Verbund materials, beispielsweise eine Verpackung bestimmt und kann als Zuschnitt oder vorgeformt in die Form eingebracht wer den. Dies geschieht bevorzugt kurze Zeit vor Zugabe der Stärkesuspension.In addition, another material is used in the process Use, which is preferably paper, cardboard, card clay, textile, wood veneer, leather, synthetic leather, foils from synthetic, biopolymer and metal materials as well Combinations of the above materials. Here it is preferably a flat material. The further material is created by the final shape of the composite materials, for example packaging and can introduced as a blank or preformed into the mold the. This is preferably done shortly before the addition of Starch suspension.
Die Stärkesuspension wird bevorzugt durch Einspritzen dosiert in das Formwerkzeug eingeführt. In der beheizten Form schäumt sie infolge Verdampfung auf und füllt die Kavi täten aus. Dabei und während der Trocknung sowie des chemisch-physikalischen Aushärtens verbindet sich die Stärke mit dem weiteren Material zu einer Einheit, die anschließend als Verbundmaterial entformt wird. Diese Vorgänge werden durch einen erhöhten Innendruck des Formwerkzeugs gefördert und bevorzugt druck- und temperaturgesteuert durchgeführt.The starch suspension is preferred by injection dosed into the mold. In the heated Form foams up due to evaporation and fills the cavi would do. During and during the drying as well as the chemical-physical curing combines the starch with the further material to a unit, which then is demolded as a composite material. These operations will be promoted by an increased internal pressure of the mold and preferably carried out under pressure and temperature control.
Dabei ist es überraschend, daß die relativ hohe Formtempera tur das weitere Material bei geeigneter Durchführung des Verfahrens nicht beeinträchtigt. Dies gilt auch für eine Be druckung, die dem weiteren Material, insbesondere aus Papier, Pappe oder Karton, vor dem Einlegen in das Formwerk zeug und einer nachfolgenden Verformung aufgebracht werden kann. Insbesondere, wenn die Stärkesuspension einseitig auf dem weiteren Material aufgebracht ist, ist die Bedruckung nach dem Entformen auf einer Seite des Verbundmaterials sichtbar. Bei einseitigem Aufbringen der Stärkesuspension kann auch recyceltes Kartonmaterial für eine Verpackung von Nahrungsmitteln verwendet werden, welches an der Ver packungsaußenseite nicht mit dem Nahrungsmittel in Berührung kommt.It is surprising that the relatively high mold temperature tur the further material with a suitable implementation of the Procedure not affected. This also applies to a Be printing, the other material, in particular from Paper, cardboard or cardboard, before inserting it into the mold stuff and a subsequent deformation are applied can. Especially if the starch suspension is one-sided the other material is applied, is the printing after demolding on one side of the composite material visible. With one-sided application of the starch suspension can also use recycled cardboard for packaging Food are used, which at the Ver outside of the pack does not come into contact with the food is coming.
Für mehrere bedruckbare oder glatte Oberflächen bzw. aus Festigkeitsgründen können mehrere Schichten weiteres Mate rial in das Formwerkzeug eingebracht werden. Die Stärkesus pension wird dann vor allem zwischen den Schichten des wei teren Materials eingebracht.For several printable or smooth surfaces For reasons of strength, several layers of additional mate be introduced into the mold. The starch sauce pension is then mainly between the layers of white tere material introduced.
Durch geeignete Gestaltung des Formwerkzeuges können Struk turen in das Verbundmaterial geformt werden, beispielsweise Durchbrechungen, Vertiefungen, Stege oder Rippen. Dies kann zu Verpackungszwecken aber auch aus Festigkeitsgründen sinn voll sein. Außerhalb des Formwerkzeuges ist eine weitere Bearbeitung durch Verformen, Prägen, Stanzen und/oder Forma tieren möglich. By suitable design of the mold, struc structures are molded into the composite material, for example Openings, depressions, webs or ribs. This can for packaging purposes but also for reasons of strength being full. Outside of the mold is another Processing by shaping, embossing, punching and / or forma animals possible.
Eine bevorzugte Anwendung des Verfahrens ist die Herstellung von Verpackungen. Dabei kann das weitere Material für eine Verpackungsschale schalenartig vorgeformt werden.A preferred application of the method is production of packaging. The additional material for one Packaging tray are preformed like a tray.
Der Verbund aus weiterem Material und Stärkeschaum ergibt eine vielfach höhere Festigkeit des fertigen Teils als seine einzelnen Komponenten oder deren Addition ohne eine innige. Verbindung. Das Verbundmaterial hat ein niedriges spezifi sches Gewicht und kommt mit verhältnismäßig geringen Wand stärken aus. Zudem weist es kälte- und wärmeisolierende sowie stoßabsorbierende Eigenschaften auf und ist antista tisch.The combination of additional material and starch foam results a much higher strength of the finished part than its individual components or their addition without an intimate. Connection. The composite material has a low specific cal weight and comes with a relatively small wall strengthen from. It also has cold and heat insulation as well as shock-absorbing properties and is antista table.
Die Verbindung von z. B. Flachmaterial und Stärkeschaum er fordert keine Additive wie Heiß- oder Kaltleim oder Kunst stoffe usw. Daraus ergibt sich neben der biologischen Abbau barkeit und Kompostierbarkeit die Möglichkeit eines problem losen Recyclings. Insbesondere beim Einsatz von Papier, Kar ton oder Pappe als Flachmaterial kann das Verbundmaterial bei der Papier-, Karton- oder Pappherstellung wiederverwen det werden.The connection of e.g. B. flat material and starch foam he does not require additives such as hot or cold glue or art substances etc. This results in addition to biodegradation availability and compostability the possibility of a problem loose recycling. Especially when using paper, kar The composite material can be made of clay or cardboard as a flat material reuse in the production of paper, cardboard or cardboard be det.
Die Eigenschaften des erfindungsgemäßen Verbundmaterials er öffnen auch außerhalb des Verpackungssektors viele Anwen dungsmöglichkeiten. So ist ein Einsatz zu Isolationszwecken als Baustoff, in der Elektrotechnik und in der Automobil industrie denkbar. Ferner kommt eine Verwendung für modische Gebrauchsgegenstände, vergleichsweise hoher Stabilität, wie Möbel, in Betracht, die infolge ihrer Kurzlebigkeit recycel bar sein müssen.The properties of the composite material according to the invention also open up many applications outside of the packaging sector possible applications. This is how it is used for insulation purposes as a building material, in electrical engineering and in the automobile industry conceivable. There is also a use for fashionable Commodities, comparatively high stability, such as Furniture that is recycled due to its short life have to be cash.
Nachfolgend wird das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren anhand eines Beispiels näher beschrieben.The method according to the invention is described below using a Example described in more detail.
