Abstract:

In order to study the effect of biological pretreatment on straw fiber dissociation and promote fiber separation and film formation in pulping process, the effects of microbial inoculation amount and fermentation time on chemical composition, fiber morphology and film mechanical properties of straw fiber were studied by laboratory simulated fermentation. The results showed that, the degradation rate of rice straw treated with 1% exogenous bacteria reached 20% after 14 days, and the fiber degradation was moderate, and the proportion of fine fiber was only 59.63%-67.91%, compared with the control group. The interlacing force among fibers was enhanced, and the effect of fiber dissolution and separation was improved, which led to the energy consumption of beating decreased by 71.54%. In addition, with the prolonging of fermentation time, the tensile strength of fiber film increased first and then decreased, which increased by 7.6% and 4.64% on day 7 and day 14, respectively. When treated with 3% inoculation amount for 14 days, the weight average and weight of slurry increased by 28.57% and 49.36% respectively, and the fiber film tear rate reached 240.9 mN. The conclusions are as follows: there is no significant correlation between tensile strength and fiber mass, but a negative correlation between bursting strength and weighted fiber length, while there is a significantly positive correlation between tear strength and average fiber length, weight average and length-width ratio. This study provides technical support for the development and application of biodegradable straw fiber mulching film.
