biodegradable polymers
lactide is a biopolymer synthetic. it is fully compostable and water soluble.
it is a natural polymer resource but needs to be hydrolysed at high temperatures.
polyactide is a bipolymer made from corn kernels or cane sugar
it is enviromentally friendly but there a vey few facilities to where it can be used
polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is a natural polymer which is made from bacteria grown i cultures
transformations of toxic materials by microorganisms beneficial but also causes plastic buildup in the sea
Glycolide
bio-polymer synthetic which is fully compostable and cellulose based
it has high initial tensile strength but requires a long process time
biopol
additive to promote degredation.
It is an environmentally friendly, quality biodegradable plastic
potatopak is made from potato starch.
doesnt break down in river beds. collects food and makes it easier to store.
cornstarch polymer is made from high starch vegetables.
Can be composted in facilities for industrial composting. but it could undermine conventional composting.
