DESCRIPTION
Procedure for welding renewable raw materials.
The present invention relates to a process for welding monoaxially stretched renewable raw materials, as well as to a tie band manufactured with the process according to the invention.
In the mid-1990s, stretched products of renewable raw materials such as bands for packaging purposes were developed, which were made of completely biodegradable materials. These bands mainly contained starch. These bands could be welded in principle with themselves. Because of the poor thermal resistance of starch, these bands were, however, completely unsuitable as tie bands, since the welding point was broken for the usual tensile load for the tie bands. Because the starch belongs to the polysaccharides, these bands at that time were not resistant to hydrolysis and had a low thermoforming stability. In addition, technical starch is usually mixed with other components such as polyhydroxybutyric acid, which entails other disadvantages. The bands developed at that time were as binding bands sensitive to hydrolysis (comp. With documents DE 295 20 448 U1, DE 295 20 449 U1 or also with EP 0 799 335 B1).
Document DE 295 20 448 U1 describes, in particular, a welding process for renewable tie bands in which surfaces to be welded made, at least partially, of renewable raw materials such as starch are provided.
Document DE 196 54 030 C2 describes a seating support for which a three-dimensional mesh structure made of polyethylene is provided. This polyethylene is described on page 2 line 35 as typical material of tie bands for automatic packaging machines. In addition to this material for the mesh structure, the claimed settlement support also has a textile structure which should serve as a settlement surface for microorganisms. This textile structure can be made of degradable organic substances (section 1 line 18). It did not occur to the expert in the field at that time, despite the technical task clearly stated, also to use as a material for the rope-like mesh structure a degradable organic material. This shows that there was obviously a prejudice against the use of degradable organic materials for stretched products such as tie bands.
Document 699 20 702 T2 describes the ultrasonic welding of polylactic acid products, which are not stretched and therefore do not have to meet any requirement in terms of tensile strength.
JP 2001-130183 describes a document holder made of polylactic acid.
JP 2009-073498 describes a polylactic acid bag and its manufacture.
EP 1 859 916 A1 describes a process for manufacturing an extended sheet made of polylactic acid.
US 3,368,323 describes a tying machine and a procedure that is carried out with it.
GB 1,189,029 describes molecularly oriented polyamide products.
US 3,316,687 describes a tying procedure.
JP 2002 348445 describes a binding band which contains from 10 to 30% by weight of polylactic acid.
The present invention therefore raises the problem of providing a process with which stretched renewable raw materials can be welded in such a way that the products formed have a high tensile strength.
The problem posed by the invention is solved in a first embodiment by means of a process for welding monoaxially stretched renewable raw materials, characterized in that
to. a monoaxially stretched tie band is used and surfaces to be welded made, at least partially, of stretched polylactic acid are provided, and
b. surfaces are welded by heating with wedge heating, friction welding, laser welding, high frequency welding or ultrasonic welding,
the polylactic acid being at least 70% by weight, made from lactic acid L.
Until now, virtually non-axially stretched products were manufactured from raw materials

renewable, such as tie bands, since there was a prejudice that these materials were not sufficiently mechanically resistant and / or were, for example, sensitive to hydrolysis. In addition, there was a prejudice that during the welding of renewable raw materials a degradation of the material would appear and, as a result, the mechanical properties would worsen. This prejudice is all the more valid for monoaxially stretched products, since these are already mechanically preloaded and therefore there was a prejudice that the welding points or welding seams of the stretched products made of renewable raw materials should be considered practically as a point of controlled breakage and, in any case, as they could not be mechanically loaded. Surprisingly, it has now been discovered that stretched renewable raw materials can be welded by heating wedge welding, friction welding, laser welding but, above all, by ultrasonic welding, without the mechanical properties significantly deteriorating.
In step a) a monoaxially stretched band is used, that is a monoaxially stretched tie band and, preferably, a monoaxially stretched band for the packaging industry. Regardless of this, the material to be welded is preferably stretched in 1: 3. Precisely in these materials and especially in the case of tie bands requires the use, as a rule, a great tensile strength. Because of the aforementioned prejudices, so far they are considered as impossible especially for binding bands made of welded renewable raw materials.
In step a), preferably, extruded surfaces to be welded are used. In contrast to the welding of, for example, woven surfaces, a weld that is especially free of defects can be performed in this way, without, for example, air inclusions between the surfaces to be welded.
The portion of renewable raw materials on the surfaces to be welded is, independently of each other, preferably less than 30% by weight, especially less than 50% by weight, very especially preferably less than 90% in weigh. In the most preferred way, the surfaces to be welded are made of a stretched renewable raw material.
The renewable raw material is polylactic acid. In this way, extended products made of renewable raw materials by ultrasound can be solar for the first time which, unlike the starch-based materials known so far, have a particularly high stability against hydrolysis and high thermoforming stability .
The starch had as a polysaccharide, in addition to the sensitivity to hydrolysis, also the following disadvantage that, for example, the package bands made of starch, when welded, have thermally decomposed and thus the welding points became almost at controlled break points. These disadvantages could be overcome with this preferred embodiment. Therefore, the starch portion of the surfaces to be welded is also preferably at most 10% by weight, especially at most 5% by weight. Another disadvantage of the tie bands based on starch and known in the state of the art was also that the technical starch usually consists of more than 50% by weight, for example, of polyhydroxybutyric acid.
The polylactic acid is preferably manufactured in at least 90% by weight of lactic acid L. Surprisingly it has been shown that such a particularly high degree of crystallization can be achieved, so that these bands can be especially well stretched. Bands with a large portion in D acid seemed to give rather an amorphous polymer, which is not so suitable for stretching.
The width of the surfaces to be welded is, for example, in a range of 3 mm to 50 mm, especially in a range of 4 mm to 32 mm. The thickness of the surfaces to be welded is, for example, in a range of 0.2 mm to 2 mm, especially in a range of 0.4 to 1.5 mm.
The average weight of the molar mass Mw of the renewable raw material is preferably in a range from
20,000 g / mol to 300,000 g / mol, especially in a range from 100,000 g / mol to 220,000 g / mol. Renewable raw materials of this type lead, surprisingly, to bandage bands with a particularly balanced relationship between low fragility and high tensile strength.
The additional substances, additives and other Modifiers may be contained, for example, from 0% by weight to 10% by weight, especially 0.5% by weight to 2% by weight.
The fiber content of the surface material is preferably at most 10% by weight, especially at most 1% by weight. Very particularly preferably, the tie band according to the invention does not contain fibers. In this way, it is possible to avoid the lack of homogeneity of the properties, especially during the processing of fibers together with thermoplastic materials, for example, by air inclusions.
In step b), a welding time between 5 milliseconds and 1 second is preferably set,

preferably between 100 to 400 milliseconds. Regardless of this, a cooling time between 0 seconds and 3 seconds, especially between 0.2 and 0.5 seconds, is preferably set in this stage b). A combination of the preferred welding time and the preferred cooling time has proved especially preferred. Otherwise the welding procedure is carried out with the usual parameters.
Preferably, in step b), during welding, the sonotrode is chosen as wide as the material to be welded. In step b) a sonotrode with a length in the range of 1 to 100 mm, especially 5 mm to 30 mm, can be used during welding.
Advantageously, in stage b), during welding, the surfaces to be welded against a counter plate are pressed, presenting the opposite surfaces of the sonotrodes and the counter plate, in each case, a partial section provided with projections and a partial section smooth. In this way the surface of the sonotrodes can be grooved while the surface of the counter plate is smooth. It has been surprisingly determined that this results in a smaller deformation of the surfaces to be welded in the weld zone. By means of the small deformation of the surfaces to be welded in the area of the weld, into which, for example, tensile force is introduced, the weld obtains a greater resistance overall. In addition, it was determined that the resistance values are dispersed little from one weld to another, so that with the preferred method according to the invention a large number of welds with a relatively high and invariable resistance can be generated.
There is a tie band manufactured in accordance with the process according to the invention characterized in that the breaking strength is worth at least 5 N / mm2, especially at least 100 N / mm2, measured according to DIN 53504.
The elongation at break according to DIN 53504 is preferably at most 100%, especially preferably at most 50%, especially preferably at most 20%.
Example of embodiment
Polylactic acid granulate (PLA 4032D Polymer from NatureWorks) was melted, which was an L polylactic acid, and extruded, at 220 ° C, through a slit nozzle by means of an endless screw extruder. The extruded product was taken into a water bath with a temperature of 50 ° C and was then stretched in 1: 4 air. The band formed in air was then fixed and cooled and then wound. With this strapping band formed, a usual cardboard box for zoning was then partially zoned, by placing the band around the cardboard box for moving, so that both ends of the strapping band overlapped 2 cm. The overlapping ends of the tie band were welded together by ultrasonic welding. Welding time was set to 256 milliseconds. The cooling time was set to 1 second. Otherwise, the parameters were adjusted as usual. The sonotrode had a width of 4 mm and a length of 15 mm. The surface was grooved, the groove width being 1 mm and the groove depth also 1 mm. The ribs of the groove were rounded. The counter plate was smooth. Overall, the manufacturing parameters were chosen and, in particular, the thickness and width of the slit nozzle during extrusion such that, after stretching, a tie band with a thickness of 0.7 mm was formed and a 12 mm width
The tie band manufactured had a breaking strength of more than 145 N / mm2 (measured according to DIN 53504). The elongation at break was less than 20% (according to DIN 53504). No degradation could be observed by any hydrolysis. The binding band obtained was water resistant. In addition, the binding band obtained was stable to thermoforming up to at least 70 ° C.
The breaking strength in case of welding of both bands was greater than 110 N / mm2 (according to DIN 53504). The elongation at break was greater than 1% (according to DIN 53504) and less than 20% (according to DIN 53504).
