Currently, there is a rapid increase in the consumption of polymer materials. Due to the huge growth in agricultural and horticultural production, a significant amount of plastic waste is generated as a result of crop production and the use of mulching films. The combination of natural additives with synthetic polymers allows to develop environmentally friendly materials with increased biodegradability. In this article, we investigated composite films based on low-density polyethylene with addition of natural rubber. It has been shown that, in the process of mixing with polyethylene, partially vulcanized natural rubber is completely cross-linked, representing a hard rubber. This prevents large deformations from occurring in the composition under mechanical stress. The study of physical and mechanical properties showed that the use of natural rubber as natural additive allows to maintain acceptable performance properties. Thus, the results of this study indicate the possibility of using compositions based on polyethylene and natural rubber as packaging and agricultural films. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
