The topic of environmental protection has always been hot. Do you know what biodegradable materials can replace plastics? The following manufacturers of degradable particles will analyze for you:

Degradable materials refer to materials that can be decomposed into carbon dioxide, water and other elements under natural environmental conditions such as sunlight, temperature, water, compounds, fungi and bacteria, insects, mechanical forces and so on. At present, there are three types of environmentally friendly degradable materials in the market.

1、 Polylactic acid

Poly (lactic acid), also known as polylactide, is chemically synthesized with lactic acid, a product of microbial fermentation, as a monomer. It can be degraded automatically after use and will not pollute the environment.

2、 Starch plastic

Starch plastic refers to adding a certain amount of corn starch, cassava powder, wood powder, bamboo powder, etc. to PP and other plastics to achieve the purpose of environmental protection and degradability. Starch plastics containing more than 90% starch can also be degraded by other components added.

3、 Photodegradable plastics

Photodegradable plastic refers to the plastic that can degrade under the action of light, which is obtained by chemical synthesis or adding photosensitizer.
