OBTAINING COMPOSITE MATERIALS BASED ON POLYPROPYLENE AND STARCH

Abstract. Due to the large-scale utilization of plastic products in our lives and their long decomposition time, nature is becoming disposed of with plastic waste every year. In this work, the opportunity of obtaining biodegradable compositions based on synthetic and natural polymers for single-use plastic products is re-searched. The opportunity of obtaining thermoplastic starch was researched and the structure and properties were studied, and a composition based on thermo-plastic starch with polypropylene was obtained. FTIR-spectroscopy and radio-graphic methods were used to determine the optimal conditions of thermoplastic starch production. The amorphous-crystalline structure and mechanical proper-ties of the composites based on thermoplastic starch and polypropylene were studied. The composition obtained based on research has the property of biodeg-radability and it can be used in the production of single-use plastic products for food.
