Abstract

This study investigated the mechanical, chemical structure and thermal properties of the biopolymer composition. The components used in the preparation are biopolymer sample of almond shell as filler. The phenol-formaldehyde oligomer was modified with monometilaniline. Modified resol type phenol-formaldehyde oligomer used as a liaison. The main parameters of the obtained oligomer have been studied. For comparison, the main indices of the unmodified oligomer have been researched. An environmentally friendly coating was obtained as binder and almond shell as filler. Thermal and mechanical indices of many bioplastics have similar, eventually even higher consumer properties in comparison with the ones traditionally obtained from thermoplastic products. In these terms bio crumbling polymers are more suitable: the resources necessary for their production and renovation are more efficient. It should also be noted that the high cost price of the material may be temporary, as far as the production of biopolymers is not mass and the value of bioplastics will be reduced over time, as a result, they will be affordable for lots of businesses. The main purpose of the presented research is to study almond shell composition as a biopolymer, its physical and mechanical properties and to use it as filler in the preparation of the biocomposition. The disadvantages of phenol formaldehyde oligomer were modified with nitrogen-containing modificator and its main physical-mechanical properties have been studied.
