Polyethylene is not just a widely used material, but also a part of our modern life. Polyethylene is used in various fields - from the food industry to space exploration. Garbage bags made from polyethylene are very popular. They are convenient for collecting waste and make cleaning work more efficient. Such bags can be used everywhere: in factories, offices, on the street or at home.

Mass production of polyethylene bags began in 1957, and they immediately began to be in great demand. Bags with handles appeared much later, almost twenty years later. Today, garbage bags are made from the following materials:

  • HDPE - low-density polyethylene;
  • LDPE - high pressure polyethylene.

Types of bags made from LDPE polyethylene

Several brands of LDPE are produced. In production and household sphere Polyethylene 15813-020, which is of the highest grade, is very common. LDPE bags are stored indoors, protected from direct sunlight. Bags are stored at a distance of at least 1 m from heating devices.

The material has the following features:

  • Resistance to mechanical damage;
  • Elasticity;
  • Convenient application of dyes and long-term retention of dyes on the surface;
  • Brightness and attractiveness of colors;
  • Resistance to cold;
  • Strength.

Garbage bags have a strength of up to twenty kilograms. The same material is used to strengthen the cut-out handles of packages made from PSD or HDPE. The use of this technology helps increase lifting capacity. Such bags are widely used in trade in cases where not only the colorful emblem on the packaging is important, but also the strength of the bag. In addition, such bags are used in the food industry and medicine.

The production and characteristics of HDPE bags are regulated in accordance with GOST 16338-85. These bags have a characteristic rustling sound. The molecular structure of the material ensures its high strength. At the same time, such bags are not inferior in elasticity to LDPE bags. If you make a cut-out handle in such a product, there will be no need to strengthen it, and the load-carrying capacity of the package, which is 25-30 kilograms, will not decrease. The disadvantages of HDPE bags include their low resistance to negative temperatures: when severe frosts they become vulnerable. The dyes on the surface of such bags look paler and less saturated. But in terms of strength, HDPE is superior to LDPE. Such bags are used mainly for packaging products in the food industry.

Mixed pressure polyethylene combines the best properties of HDPE and PSD. Garbage bags are also made from this polyethylene. This material combines strength with elasticity and can be recognized by its rustling and glossy surface. Used for the manufacture of packaging and packaging bags, its maximum load capacity is thirty kilograms.

Biodegradable bags

Today, biodegradable bags are also produced that have similar characteristics to conventional plastic bags. But at the same time, the decay period of such packages is only a few years, provided such minimal conditions as access to light, water and oxygen are present. Life time garbage bags when using the oxo supplement, d2w is fourteen months. To store them, you can use a cool, dark room protected from sunlight, in which the temperature does not rise above plus thirty degrees.

Process of making plastic garbage bags

The production of garbage bags begins with the process of processing polymer waste, represented by synthetic thermoplastic materials, which include polyethylene. The raw materials are scraps and residues that cannot be used in primary production due to their size. Typically, high-quality lump waste from the polymer industry is used. HDPE bags can also be made from various household waste (for example, used disposable tableware). Since such raw materials may contain various impurities, they must be carefully prepared for processing.

In addition to various wastes, agglomerate can be used as a raw material. Also suitable raw materials are secondary granules that can adhere very tightly to each other. Before entering production, polymers are processed in several stages:

  • primary sorting of polymers;
  • crushing of raw materials;
  • washing, then drying (using a washing machine, centrifuge, and dryer);
  • ranulization.

Description of the processing process

The procedure for producing garbage bags from recycled granules includes two main stages: extrusion and subsequent processing of the material on special machines that form the bags.

Extrusion consists of the following stages:

  • Granulated polyethylene is supplied in special containers or on pallets;
  • Raw materials are manually poured into special floor bins;
  • Rotating screws during the processing process capture granules, then moving them along a screw channel located along the axis of the machine cylinder;
  • From friction and heaters, polyethylene heats up and then melts;
  • The resulting material is compressed by a screw, then pressed into the forming head through a screen (there is also underwater granulation, used in the most powerful devices).

The filter meshes located on the grate do not allow foreign components and contaminants to enter the polyethylene mass. The output is a polyethylene sleeve that needs to be inflated. A compressor is used for this purpose. The resulting polyethylene film is cooled with air to the temperature required for the raw material to harden. Then the polyethylene, passing through rubber and wooden shafts, is compressed and wound into a roll using a conveyor.

During the extrusion process, dyes, stabilizers and plasticizers are added to recycled materials. Dyes help give polyethylene the required color, and the last two substances help improve its physical and chemical properties. The thickness of the resulting film is determined by the characteristics of the equipment; it can range from 10 to 200 microns. The film thickness determines the load capacity of the package. A bag made of polyethylene with a thickness of 14-15 microns can withstand up to three kilograms of cargo, and with a thickness of more than 40 microns - up to twenty kilograms.

When the extrusion process is completed, a polyethylene tube is produced, which then enters the bag forming machine for further processing, which includes the following processes:

  • cutting polyethylene;
  • folding;
  • sealing the seams of the product;
  • perforation along the tear line for garbage bags produced in rolls.

If necessary, printing is carried out on plastic bags. Such packages are pre-treated with corona discharge. Emblems and logos can be applied using flexography or silk-screen printing.

Recycled polyethylene waste is used in the production of garbage bags. The most popular are packages with a volume of thirty, sixty or one hundred and twenty liters. Large bags with a volume of two hundred liters are used for packaging and subsequent removal of bulky waste or large quantities of small waste.

Features of choice

If for ordinary household waste, then garbage bags with a volume of 20 to 35 liters are suitable, which are optimal for a regular bucket with a volume of 10-12 liters.

If garbage bags are needed for use in the garden, at the dacha, or for packaging large items, then you should pay attention to garbage bags marked 60-120 liters.
Well, if you are doing repairs, then look for LDPE bags with a volume of 120 liters or more, which are especially durable and cut-resistant.

HDPE or PVD?
Another important point: all garbage bags differ in strength. The fact is that they are manufactured using different technologies. The polyethylene used to make trash bags comes in two types: high-density or low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and low-density or high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
Typically, thin bags (from 5 to 15 microns) are made from HDPE, with the key feature being the material's tensile strength. Often used as packaging material. Thin HDPE bags are intended primarily for light waste that is removed daily (offices, hotels). Thicker ones are suitable for garbage containers, removed when filled.
Thick (from 20 microns) bags are made from LDPE. Despite the fact that LDPE bags are more stretchable than HDPE bags, this does not affect consumer qualities: they are more resistant to punctures, and thicker polyethylene allows the service life of such a bag to be extended. The main purpose is street cleaning, heavy garbage, food waste.

Color of garbage bags.
Garbage bags, or garbage bags, can be found in completely different colors - from black to glamorous gold. However, you need to take into account that thin colored bags when filled will be almost transparent and when you take out the garbage, the contents of this bag will be visible to others.
As for smells, the bags can smell like strawberries, bananas, apple and even jasmine. Scented packets are believed to help eliminate bad odors, but this is more of a marketing ploy for consumers!
If this characteristic is important to you, then don’t worry: even the most sophisticated consumer has plenty to choose from, since each company tries to add as many varieties as possible to its line of garbage bags. Needless to say, the number of producers of household goods is increasing every day, because these are goods of everyday demand and they will be in demand in any economic conditions.

Ties.
But what really matters is the way the bag is tied. It can be problematic to tie and carry a garbage bag filled to the top. Therefore, high-quality garbage bags have either handles with which you can tie the bag or a drawstring. You will have to pay for convenience - these categories of packages are slightly more expensive than usual. But remember that the ties are only for tightening the bags, not for carrying them. Therefore, it is possible that when carrying, the ties will break.

Garbage bags or used bags from the store?
Many of us, instead of garbage bags, use “T-shirt” bags in which we brought groceries from the store. On the one hand, this is correct, they are similar in size and material, but using them there is one important drawback. The T-shirt bag, thanks to the side folds, has a folded bottom, which, when loaded, forms two holes. If any liquid accumulates in such a bag, this liquid will end up outside and the trash can will be constantly dirty.
HDPE garbage bags have a vertical bottom seam that diverges in the form of a cross, which reduces the possibility of liquid leakage.

Harm to the environment

IN Lately All over the world, the consumption of polyethylene and various plastic packaging is significantly increasing and, as a result of this growth, the amount of plastic waste is increasing. In Moscow alone, 500,000 tons of plastic waste are generated per year. IN normal conditions polyethylene decomposes in 100-150 years, so the amount of plastic waste increases from year to year. The main environmental benefit of garbage bags is their recyclability. And all manufacturers of similar goods use this opportunity, subjecting the bags to recycling.
But environmentally friendly products today are not just a fashion trend, they are the future. That's why biodegradable bags came into being. Biodegradable garbage bags are a small but still help to our planet in the fight against pollution. Due to a special additive, these bags completely decompose in just 2-3 years, instead of 100-150 years. At the same time, in terms of their characteristics, biodegradable bags are in no way inferior to ordinary ones.

Bags that have been used and are contaminated with harmful chemical products, are buried in special landfills in accordance with established sanitary standards.

7. Acceptance rules

7.1. Bags are presented for acceptance in batches. A batch is considered to be no more than 100,000 bags. one type, size, made from one batch of raw materials and issued one quality document, which must contain:
- trademark and (or) name of the manufacturer and its legal address;
- batch number and release date;
- symbol of bags;
- number of bales;
- test results or confirmation of compliance of the quality of bags with the requirements of the regulatory document according to which the bags are manufactured;
- mark of conformity or number of the certificate of conformity.

7.2. When controlling the quality of bags, acceptance and periodic tests are carried out.
During acceptance tests, the appearance of the bags, film thickness, adhesion of the internal surfaces of the bags, print quality, continuity and strength of the seams are monitored.
During periodic testing and in case of disagreement in quality assessment, bags that have passed acceptance tests are subjected to control tests for mechanical strength to impact during free fall.

7.3. To control the quality of bags, a sample is taken in the amount of 0.1% of bags, but not less than 15 pieces.

7.4. If at least one bag in the sample does not meet the requirements of the regulatory document for bags for a specific type of product, a double sample taken from the same batch is inspected.
Based on the results of re-inspection, a batch is considered to comply with the requirements of the regulatory document if all bags in the sample comply with the requirements of the regulatory document.

7.5. In regulatory documents for bags for specific types of products, it is allowed to establish other levels and testing procedures.

8. Test methods

8.1. The bags selected for the sample are visually inspected to identify tears, cracks, through holes, the continuity of the seam, and the quality of sizing of the reinforcing sheets are checked.
The bags selected for the sample are conditioned in accordance with the requirements of GOST 21798, mode 4 (E) for 4 hours.

8.2. To control the size of the bags and the thickness of the film, 10 bags are selected from the sample.
The dimensions of the bags are measured with a ruler according to GOST 427 with an accuracy of 1 mm. Measurements are carried out at the points indicated in Figures 1 - 9.
Film thickness is measured according to GOST 17035.
To carry out the tests, two strips with a length of at least 200 mm and a width of 100 - 120 mm each are cut from each bag along its entire width at a distance of at least 300 - 500 mm from each other.

8.3. To determine the tensile strength of the weld, 5 bags are taken from the sample.

From each bag, 5 samples are cut out with a width of (15 +/- 0.2) mm and a length of (100 +/- 5.0) mm. Samples are cut from various sections of the weld in the longitudinal direction of the bag.
The seam should be located in the middle and be perpendicular to the length of the sample.
Before testing, measure the film thickness of the sample in three places. The minimum value is taken into account.
The tensile strength of the welded seams of bags is determined according to GOST 14236 on a tensile testing machine, the working scale of which is selected so that the measured load ranges from 10% to 90% nominal value scale, and the distance between the clamps is set to (50 +/- 1.0) mm. Clamp expansion speed - (500 +/- 50.0) mm/min.
For bags with folds, with a valve, with folds and a valve, tests are carried out on 3 samples cut in the area of ​​the two-layer welded joint and on 3 samples cut in the area of ​​a four-layer welded joint.
The arithmetic mean of the determinations for each bag is taken as the test result.

7 Preparation for analysis

7.1 Isolation of bone particles

(50.0 + 0.5) g of the analyzed sample is crushed with a knife into pieces weighing up to (1.0 + 0.2) g and placed in a beaker with a capacity of 500 cm 3. Add 300 cm 3 of a 2% solution of potassium hydroxide (or sodium hydroxide) and heat in a boiling water bath, stirring the contents periodically with a glass rod.

After dissolving the main part of the sample, the resulting alkaline solution with pieces of soft tissue floating in it is drained. The treatment is repeated until the soft tissues are completely dissolved. Bone particles are in the sediment.

7.2 Washing bone particles

The isolated bone particles (sediment) are placed in a flask and washed through a glass funnel with a thin stream of water for 15 minutes.

7.3 Sedimentation and drying

The washed bone particles are deposited on a paper filter and dried together with the filter in an oven at a temperature of (103 + 2) °C until the change in mass stops.

8 Taking measurements

8.1 To measure the size of bone particles, they are placed on a glass slide so that they are located without overlapping or touching each other.

8.2 The prepared preparation is examined under a transmitted light microscope. First use overview lenses - 10x or less, and then lenses with medium magnification up to 40x. Eyepieces are used with 10x or 16x magnification. To determine the maximum size, the largest bone particles isolated from the sample are measured.

8.3 Determination of the micrometer eyepiece division value

For each combination of lenses and eyepieces used in the work, the price of the eyepiece-micrometer division is determined.

An eyepiece micrometer is a round glass plate with a 5 mm long ruler in the center. The ruler is divided into 50 parts of 0.1 mm each. Before the measurement, the micrometer eyepiece division value is determined. To do this, each time an eyepiece and objective combination is used, a micrometer object is placed on the stage. The latter is a glass slide with an applied ruler 1 mm long, divided into 100 parts. One division of the micrometer object ruler corresponds to 0.01 mm or 10 µm. Set the rulers of the micrometer object and the micrometer eyepiece parallel and align their zero marks. Then it is determined how many divisions of the micrometer object exactly match the divisions of the micrometer eyepiece.

The division price of the eyepiece-micrometer t is calculated using the formula

where a is the number of divisions counted along the ruler of the micrometer object;

b - the corresponding number of divisions of the eyepiece-micrometer ruler;

c is the value of one division of the ruler of the micrometer object, equal to 10 µm. For measurements at very low magnifications, micrometer objects are used, in which 1 cm of the ruler is divided into 100 parts of 0.1 mm each. In this case, one division of the micrometer object ruler is equal to 100 µm.

8.4 Measurement using an eyepiece micrometer

When taking measurements directly under a light microscope, a special eyepiece micrometer or an eyepiece micrometer in the form of a glass plate with a ruler placed in the eyepiece of the microscope is used.

Preliminarily determine the price of dividing the eyepiece ruler for the lenses used using the ruler on the glass slide (see Appendix A). The measurement is carried out using any lens so that the measured structures in the field of view are no less than 10 and no more than 50. The maximum size of the largest bone particles is measured; this value is the upper limit of the size of bone particles in the analyzed sample.

8.5 Measurement using an image analysis system

Using an image analysis system to measure bone particles complex shape their Feret diameter is measured, and for highly elongated particles, their length. If it is impossible to automatically separate particles, use their interactive separation.

The following results are obtained: total number of particles, minimum and maximum particle sizes, average particle sizes and percentages, as well as other parameters in accordance with the image analysis system program. Statistical results are obtained automatically in the form of tables, size distribution graphs or charts.

9 Processing of results

Based on the obtained measurements of the sizes of bone particles, the percentage of bone particles exceeding the standard size X, % is calculated using the formula



where /l 1 is the number of bone particles exceeding the normalized size; t 2 - total number of measured bone particles.

To obtain reliable results, the arithmetic mean of the measurements of three parallel samples of isolated bone particles is taken as the final result. At least 100 particles are measured in each of them.


* Feret diameter - the distance between tangents to the image contour drawn parallel to the viewing direction.



Appendix A (mandatory)


An example of determining the division value of an eyepiece-micrometer

The 32 divisions of the micrometer object completely fit 16 divisions of the micrometer eyepiece; the value of one division of the micrometer object ruler is 0.01 mm or 10 µm. Using formula (1) (see 8.3), find the price of division of the micrometer eyepiece ruler, µm:





Knowing the price of one division of the micrometer eyepiece at a given magnification, we begin to measure objects. In this case, the number of divisions of the eyepiece-micrometer, corresponding to the length of the measured object, is multiplied by 20 microns (the found division value).
