Biodegradable plastics are plastics that can be decomposed by the action of living organisms, usually microbes, into water, carbon dioxide, and biomass. [1] Biodegradable plastics are commonly produced with renewable raw materials, micro-organisms, petrochemicals , or combinations of all three.

2020年11月26日 · Biodegradable films are plastic-based films that have additives included during the manufacturing process. These additives, usually enzymes, enable the plastic to break down. It can be decomposed by living organisms, such as bacteria or fungi, with or without oxygen without any environmental impact.

Polyethylene or polythene film biodegrades naturally, albeit over a long period of time. Methods are available to make it more degradable under certain conditions of sunlight, moisture, oxygen, and composting and enhancement of biodegradation by reducing the hydrophobic polymer and increasing hydrophilic properties.

2024年8月21日 · This work began with selecting base biodegradable structures that showed the most promise for creating transparent, biodegradable, flexible films with adequate water and oxygen barriers. We identified PHBV and two variations of PLLA/PDLA blends (50–50-A3m and 50–50-A30m) as optimal candidates.
