It can overcome the challenges of coloring, odor, and strength that have been issues with conventional injection molding-specific biomass resins. Existing molds and equipment can be used.
The material developed by VASU Corporation (a Hong Kong capital enterprise), which is a material manufacturer, is a bio-based (corn starch) and biodegradable resin material for which they hold a patent.
Additionally, the plants used as raw materials are non-GMO, have ultra-high molecular weight, and low MFR, and do not contain harmful additives, making them safe for applications that come into direct contact with food.
Yashima Denso is a technical trading company that serves as the official domestic agent for VASU Corporation, handling everything from resin materials to mass production and delivery of molds and molded products.
*Dedicated technical staff for mold design and quality assurance will provide support.
☆Environmental Standards
RoHS, REACH, FDA, DIN EN 13432 (biodegradable), compliance with Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Notification No. 370, JORA Biomass Mark, CERI CO2 emissions
The above items have been addressed or are planned to be addressed.
Currently, in Japan, much of the biomass resin is often used for flexible packaging and bottles, and there are challenges with biomass resins for injection molding, such as coloring, odor, and strength. However, the characteristics of VASU Corporation's injection resins include high moldability (ease of molding), coloring performance, strength, price, and a reduction in CO2 emissions during combustion based on actual measurements, which can address the current challenges.
