Around
the world, one million plastic drinking bottles are purchased every minute,
while up to 5 trillion single-use plastic bags are used worldwide every year.
In total, half of all plastic produced is designed to be used only once — and
then thrown away.While plastic has many valuable uses, we have become addicted
to single-use or disposable plastic — with severe environmental consequences.
We have seen a lot of positive action to reduce
the plastic waste such as: garbage sorting,limit the use of disposable plastic
products and the developing and manufacturing of the recycling. But we need to
do more, we need to stop the plastic pollution at its sources
100%
Biodegradable material was tested is 100% compostable and
Common biodegradable materials are:
1. Polylactic acid (PLA): PLA has the characteristics of non-toxic, non-irritating, good bio compatibility, high strength, good processability, and biodegradability. The sheets, fibers, and films made are thermoformed and spun After secondary processing such as silk is widely used in packaging, textiles and medical fields, its waste can be decomposed into water and carbon dioxide by microorganisms.
2. Polyhydroxy fatty
acid ester (PHA): PHA is an extracellular polyester synthesized by many
microorganisms. It is a natural polymer biomaterial with good biocompatibility,
biodegradability and plastics. The thermal processing performance can be used
as biomedical materials and biodegradable packaging materials.
3. Polybutylene
succinate (PBS): PBS has excellent comprehensive performance, reasonable cost
performance, and is extremely versatile. It can be used for packaging,
tableware, cosmetic bottles and pharmaceutical bottles, disposable medical
supplies, agricultural films, pesticides and fertilizers. Release materials,
biomedical polymer materials and other fields.
4.
Polycaprolactone (PCL): In addition to the easy processing characteristics of
thermoplastics, PCL also has the characteristics of biodegradability,
biocompatibility, shape temperature control and memory, and is mainly used as a
controlled release drug carrier. Medical materials such as fully degradable
plastic surgical sutures.
5, PBAT
is a thermoplastic biodegradable plastic. It is a co polymer of butylene adipate
and butylene terephthalate. It has the characteristics of PBA and PBT. It has
both good ductility and elongation at break, as well as Good heat resistance
and impact performance. Mainly used in: fully
degradable packaging film; fully degradable packaging bags, including shopping
bags, rolled garbage bags, pet feces bags, electronic product packaging bags,
food packaging bags, mulch
As the research and development technology of biodegradable materials becomes more and more mature, these materials have been widely used. Grandshine are launching a series for 100% biodegradable protective case for Mobile phone and Air pod.
