Abstract

The film mulching technology is useful for controlling soil temperature and moisture by covering the soil surface, and for suppressing weeds. In this study, in order to improve the hydrolysis resistance and mechanical properties of the biodegradable mulching film, PBAT(Poly butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) and PLA(Poly lactic acid) were modified using a twin-screw extruder and then the physical and biodegradable properties of the film were investigated. After landfill the mulching film in soil, the weight reduction of the film was confirmed by period, and plant growth was observed after mulching in the dry paddy field for rice farming. Mulching films with improved hydrolysis resistance showed excellent crop growth properties, and biodegradable mulching films can offer potential as a new alternative for environmentally friendly, efficient and sustainable agricultural practices.

필름의 멀칭 기술은 토양 표면을 덮어 토양 온도와 수분을 조절하고, 잡초를 억제하는 기능에 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 생분해성 멀칭필름의 내가수분해성 및 기계적 물성을 향상시키기 위하여 PBAT(Poly Butylene Adipate-co-Terephthalate)와 PLA(Poly Lactic Acid)를 이축 압출기를 사용하여 개질한 후, 필름의 물성과 생분해 특성을 조사하였다. 멀칭필름을 토양에 매립 후 기간별 필름의 중량감소를 확인하였고, 건답에서 벼농사용 멀칭 후 식물의 성장을 관찰하였다. 내가수분해성이 향상된 멀칭 필름은 작물의 성장에 우수한 특성을 나타냈으며, 생분해되는 멀칭 필름은 환경 친화적이고 효율적이며, 지속가능한 농업관행을 위한 새로운 대안으로써의 가능성을 제공 할 수 있다.
