Valorización del carbonato cálcico procedente de la cáscara de huevo en el sector del plástico
Palabras clave: Carbonato, carga, poliolefina, huevo, investigación, caracterización Abstract:
Aiju, in collaboration with Eggnovo and other partners of project Eco-SHELL aim to give value to the two products resulting from eggshell: the membrane and the shell. In addition, they aim to facilitate the first entry in the European market of these new raw materials. This article focuses on the research carried out with calcium carbonate from eggshell, Ovocet®, within the plastics sector. The results obtained in a comparative way about the characterisation of several formulations of high density polyethylene (HDPE), with Ovocet ® and a quarry carbonate, have been presented; for some of them, a compatibilising agent has been used, such as polyethylene grafted with maleic anhydride (PE-g-MAH). The results show that the formulations obtained from the new calcium carbonate, Ovocet ®, follow the same patterns of behaviour than those obtained with quarry carbonate; but in some cases, the final properties, for the same loading percentage, are improved.
