BIODEGRADABLE THERMOPLASTIC MATERIAL BASED ON
CASEIN AND / OR CASEINATE
Technical area
The field of the invention is that of thermoplastic, biodegradable and biobased materials, more precisely that of casein and / or caseinate thermoplastics.
In particular, the present invention relates to a thermoplastic, biodegradable material, comprising
a) between 50 and 80% of casein and / or caseinate, preferably between 55 and 70%;
b) between 4 and 12% of water, preferably between 5 and 11%;
c) between 10 and 35% of at least one plasticizer other than b), preferably between 15 and 28%;
d) between 0.1 and 8% of a hydrophobic agent, preferably between 1 and 4%;
e) between 0.5 and 6% of at least one surfactant, preferably between 2 and 4%.
The subject of the invention is also the thermoplastic material, biodegradable in various different forms, in particular in the form of granules constituting a raw material for its transformation into various objects, such as films, wires or molded articles ...
The invention also relates to a packaging film obtained from this thermoplastic material, and, more specifically, a packaging for hygroscopic products, such as detergent tablets, made from this film.
Technological background
The decrease in non-renewable resources, such as petroleum, and the increase in pollution linked to these resources are leading to the development of less polluting and more environmentally friendly alternative solutions.
In the field of plastics, new biodegradable materials are being developed. These new materials can be made from naturally occurring polymers or synthetic polymers. For example, vegetable proteins, such as corn and soy proteins, or animal proteins can be used to make packaging.
Among animal proteins, casein is particularly interesting. Indeed, this protein from milk is accessible in large quantities and casein-based films have good transparency and good biodegradability.
The document FR2963013 describes biodegradable thermoplastic granules based on casein and / or caseinate and their manufacturing process. These granules can be used to make thermoplastic films. However, these thermoplastic films are not easily exploitable industrially. For example, the film is sometimes sticky, it is therefore difficult, if not impossible, to unwind the film reels using industrial equipment because the different layers stick together. Furthermore, when these films are used to package detergent tablets and these tablets are stored in conditions of low relative humidity (for example 30%), they can sometimes become brittle and tear, to the point of no longer playing then their role in packaging.
Goals
In this context, the present invention aims to satisfy at least one of the following objectives.
One of the essential objectives of the invention is the supply of a thermoplastic, biodegradable material, based on casein and / or caseinate which can be used industrially, that is to say in particular convertible into semi-finished product or finished product. , simple or complex form, by techniques such as injection, extrusion, extrusion-inflation, solvent (in English "solvent cast"), thermoforming or machining.
Another essential objective of the invention is the supply of a film of thermoplastic, biodegradable material, based on casein and / or caseinate which can be reeled and which can be unwound.
Another essential objective of the invention is the supply of a film of thermoplastic, biodegradable material, based on casein and / or caseinate, which can be used, in particular, for packaging hygroscopic products, such as detergent tablets.
Brief description of the invention
The invention relates first of all to a biodegradable thermoplastic material characterized in that it comprises
a) between 50 and 80% of casein and / or caseinate, preferably between 52 and 75%, and, more preferably still, between 55 and 70%;
b) between 4 and 13% of water, preferably between 4.5 and 12%, and, more preferably still, between 5 and 11%;
c) between 10 and 35% of at least one plasticizer other than b), preferably between 12 and 32%, and, more preferably still, between 15 and 28%;
d) between 0.1 and 8% of a hydrophobic agent, preferably between 0.5 and 6%, and, more preferably still, between 1 and 4%;
e) between 0.5 and 6% of at least one surfactant, preferably between 1 and 5%, and, more preferably still, between 1.5 and 4.5%.
The biodegradable thermoplastic material as described above can be used industrially. Indeed, this material makes it possible to obtain a film which can be reeled and then easily unwound.
This suitability for winding / unwinding at an industrial rate is a key parameter of the film produced from the casein thermoplastic material and according to the invention.
Furthermore, this film can be used to package various products such as hygroscopic products, such as detergent tablets, because even when the tablets are stored in conditions of low relative humidity, the film retains its integrity.
In addition, in some cases, the film produced is edible. It can therefore be used for different applications such as the packaging of products, ingredients or food additives, edible packaging, single doses of food ingredients to be dissolved, single doses of food additives. It can also be used as a separation sheet.

Definitions
By "thermoplastic" is meant, for example, a material which becomes malleable and pliable above a given temperature, the glass transition temperature Tg, but which below this Tg becomes hard again, these transformations being reversible.
By "biodegradable" is meant, for example, a material which can be decomposed under the action of microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, algae ...). The result of this decomposition is the formation of water, CO2 and / or methane and possibly by-products (residues, new biomass) that are not toxic to the environment. It is, for example, a biodegradable material according to European standard EN NF 13432.
By "between x and y", we mean, for example, that the limits x and y are included in the interval [x, j].
By "water soluble" is meant, for example, that dissolves in water. The water solubility of a film can be measured as follows: a piece of film (5 cm x 5 cm, cut with a cookie cutter) is fixed on a slide holder then is immersed in a beaker of 1000 ml capacity , containing 600 ml of distilled water at 20 ° C with stirring, with a magnetic bar, at 300 rpm. The time it takes for the film to break through is measured. The disintegration of the film leads to the formation of film particles. The test lasts 5 minutes after which the particles are passed through a 0.5 mm sieve to check the size of the particles. When there are no particles in the sieve, the film is considered to be water-soluble.
By "plasticizer" is meant, for example, a substance making it possible to lower the glass transition temperature Tg of the material.
By "detergent" is meant, for example, a composition which has cleaning properties. Detergents include products in the form of powder or compacted powder for dishwashers and detergents.
By "hydrophobic" is meant, for example, a compound which has little affinity with water and tends not to dissolve therein. Typically, this is a predominantly nonpolar compound.
By "hydrophilic" is meant, for example, a compound having an affinity for water and a tendency to dissolve therein. Typically, it is a compound having polar groups capable of forming hydrogen bonds.
By "surfactant" is meant, for example, an amphiphilic molecule, that is to say a molecule having both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties.
By "HLB" is meant, for example, the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (in French: hydrophilic-lipophilic balance). The HLB value can be calculated according to the following method: HLB = 20 x (Molar mass of the hydrophobic part) / (Molar mass of the molecule).
By "sequestering agent" is meant, for example, ligands which form chemical complexes with metal ions such as copper, iron, nickel, calcium and magnesium.
By "fatty acid" is meant, for example, an aliphatic carboxylic monoacid.
The proportions of the various constituents a), b), c), d) e), and optionally f) and g), are expressed in% by mass relative to the total mass of the thermoplastic material at room temperature.

EXAMPLES
Manufacturing of granules and film of thermoplastic material
The extruder used to carry out the following examples is a BC 21 co-rotating twin screw extruder of the Clextral® brand, with a diameter of 25 mm, with a center distance of 21 mm and a length of 900 mm. This extruder has at least 4 zones:
- a first introduction area
- a second introduction area
- a third degassing zone
- a fourth sector area.
The rotational speed of the twin screws is 125 rpm and the temperatures of the different zones are between 70 and 120 ° C.
The first zone of the extruder is a zone for introducing the powders: caseinate and lecithin. Liquids (plasticizers) are introduced into the second zone. The extruder also has a degassing zone in the open air and a last zone consisting of a cylindrical rod die with a diameter of 4 mm.
The screw profile is as follows:
750 mm of direct pitch screw mm of mixing screw
100 mm reverse pitch screw
At the exit of the extruder, the rod is dried and introduced into a granulator to give granules of 2 to 3 mm in diameter. The granules are then transformed into a film by extrusion-inflation. The extruder used is of the Diani® brand, it has a diameter of 30 mm and it is equipped with an annular die of 80 mm in diameter. The film produced is approximately 30 cm wide and 50 microns thick. The film obtained is 1200 meters long and is then wound up to form a reel. This reel of film is then used to package detergent tablets. A 107mm x 70mm piece of film is used to wrap a 37mm x 27mm x 15mm tablet. The film is then heat sealed at its ends, longitudinally and transversely. Different film formulations have been tested for packaging tablets.
Unwinding test
The installation used in this test is shown in FIG. 6. It comprises a reel (1) of film (2) to be tested (partially shown in FIG. 6). This film (2) passes over a return cylinder (3), before being wound up on an engine cylinder (4) having a diameter of 10 cm and a length of 30 cm, equipped with a force sensor (5) of 50 newtons from the ASA-RT brand. The force sensor (5) is used to measure the tension at the film reel during unwinding. The engine cylinder (4) is rotated at a speed of 5 rpm, in order to unwind the reel (1) of film (2).
The film (2) has a thickness of 50 micrometers and a width of the film 2 = 30 cm.
The force sensor (5) makes it possible to quantify the concept of “sticky”, which is an obstacle to exploitation at an industrial rate.
If the force sensor indicates a force greater than 2 N (0.2 kg-force), then the coil is called "sticky".
Conditioning test
The packaged detergent tablets are stored for 5 days at 30 ° C and 30% relative humidity. After that, each packaged tablet is gripped with latex gloves, shaken three times by holding one end with dry gloved fingers and put in the palm of the dry gloved hand and then the dry gloved fingers are closed on the tablet three times for wrinkle. If the film opens or breaks during this test, it is qualified as "brittle".
Printed film
The film used for packaging the tablets shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B (according to example 5) is printed directly before the winding by flexography.
The results are presented in Table 1.

Photos 5A and 5B are photos of detergent tablets wrapped in a film printed according to Example 5 after a 5-day conditioning test.
Again the packaging film is intact and free from cracks. The print on the film is not damaged.
heat shrinkage
A 5 cm x 5 cm piece of film according to Example 5 is heat-shrunk in an oven, the relative humidity of which can be controlled, at 100 ° C. for 30 seconds. The rate of retraction in the longitudinal and transverse directions is then measured. The results are presented in Table 2.
These results show that the film according to Example 5 according to the invention is heat-shrinkable.
