- the weight average molecular weight of the obtained polylactic acid-based polymer (hereinafter, referred to as “A1”) was 200,000, and the L-form content was 89.7%.
- the amounts of the charged L-lactide and DL-lactide were adjusted to obtain a polylactic acid-based polymer having a weight average molecular weight of 200,000 and an L-form content of 79.6% (hereinafter referred to as “A2”). ). In both cases, it was confirmed that there was no crystalline melting point due to DSC, and that they were amorphous.
- a resin and B resin shown in Table 2 were sufficiently dried, and the amounts shown in Table 2 were mixed. Further, dried particulate silica having an average particle diameter of 1 (trade name: Cysyla 100, manufactured by Fuji Silica Chemical Co., Ltd.) was added in an amount of 0.1 part by weight based on a total of 100 parts by weight of the resin A and the resin B. The mixture was mixed and extruded in the form of a strand using a twin screw extruder with the same direction of 25 ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ . After cooling with water, the pellet was cut to a length of 2 mm with a pelletizer to obtain a pellet of a polylactic acid-based polymer composition. After aging the obtained pellets at 120 ° C for 4 hours, the heat of crystal fusion ⁇ Hm was measured by DSC, and the data shown in Table 2 were obtained.
- dried particulate silica having an average particle diameter of 1 (trade name: Cysyla 100, manufactured by Fuji Silica Chemical Co., Ltd.) was added in an amount
- the obtained pellet was extruded in a sheet form from a coat hanger type die at 210 ° C. by a 75 ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ co-extruder.
- This co-extruded sheet was quenched with a casting roll at about 43 ° C to obtain an unstretched sheet.
- the obtained sheet was heated to 75 t using an infrared heater together with a hot water circulating roll, using a film maker made by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd .: The sheet is guided 2.0 times in the machine direction while holding the longitudinally stretched sheet with a clip, and then stretched 2.8 times at 75 ° C in the vertical direction of the sheet flow.
- the sheet was heat-treated at 5 ° C for about 30 seconds under tension to prepare a sheet having a thickness of 300 m.
- the shrinkage ratio of the obtained sheet in an oven at 90 ° C for 30 minutes is P direction.
- Good thermal dimensional stability was exhibited at 5% or less in both the direction and the V direction.
- ⁇ -Ini, AHc, Tg and Tm of the obtained sheet were measured by DSC.
- the polylactic acid-based polymer composition for thermoforming according to the present invention uses a mixture of a substantially amorphous polylactic acid-based polymer and a crystalline polylactic acid-based polymer.
- the amorphous polylactic acid-based polymer imparts flexibility and improves moldability during thermoforming.
- the molding sheet and the thermoformed article obtained from the polylactic acid-based polymer composition according to the present invention are excellent in impact resistance, heat resistance, and transparency.
- thermoformed article according to the present invention can be used in a wide range of applications such as blister containers, food containers, and shell-like packaging cases.
