Publish Time: 2024-10-18
As a functional filler, Nano Calcium Carbonate has gradually attracted attention in the field of calendered films and biodegradable materials in recent years. It can optimize material properties through physical and chemical properties.1. Application in calendered filmsEnhance strength and rigidity:Nano Calcium Carbonate can significantly improve the mechanical properties of calendered films, such as tensile strength and rigidity. Due to its small particle size, it can be evenly dispersed in the polymer matrix, thereby enhancing the overall strength of the material.Improve transparency and optical properties:Compared with traditional micron-sized calcium carbonate, Nano Calcium Carbonate can better maintain the transparency of the film, especially in transparent polymer films, which helps to maintain optical properties.Reduce costs:As a relatively cheap inorganic filler, Nano Calcium Carbonate can reduce production costs and improve cost performance without significantly affecting film performance.Improve processing performance:Nano Calcium Carbonate can improve the fluidity and processing performance of materials, reduce energy consumption and improve production efficiency during extrusion and calendering.2. Application in biodegradable materialsImprove mechanical properties:Nano Calcium Carbonate can be used as a reinforcing agent for bio-based polymers (such as PLA, PHA, etc.) to improve their mechanical properties and thermal stability to meet the requirements of practical applications.Promote biocompatibility:The biocompatibility of Nano Calcium Carbonate makes it an ideal filler in biodegradable materials, which can enhance the biodegradability of materials and help the decomposition of materials in the natural environment.Improve thermal stability:In a certain proportion, Nano Calcium Carbonate can improve the thermal stability of biodegradable materials, prevent deformation in high temperature environments, and help the stability of materials in different application environments.Adjust surface properties:Nano Calcium Carbonate can improve the surface properties of biodegradable materials, such as increasing hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity, thereby affecting their degradation rate in specific environments and achieving better material design.3. Environmental and economic benefitsSustainable development:Nano Calcium Carbonate has a relatively abundant source, and its production process has little impact on the environment. By using Nano Calcium Carbonate, the consumption of limited resources can be reduced, supporting the concept of sustainable development.Promoting circular economy:Adding Nano Calcium Carbonate to biodegradable plastics can not only improve the performance of the materials, but also enable these materials to decompose in a more controlled manner after the end of their life cycle, reducing the environmental burden.In summary, Nano Calcium Carbonate has significant enabling potential in calendered films and biodegradable materials. Its advantages in strength, transparency, cost, mechanical properties, biocompatibility, etc. can effectively improve the performance of these materials, not only promoting the research and development of new materials, but also providing support for sustainable development and the promotion of environmentally friendly materials.
