It is an additive that promotes the biodegradation of plastic simply by being added to it.
This is an additive that promotes the biodegradation of plastics that are considered difficult to biodegrade. By adding it to plastics, it has the effect of attracting microorganisms present in nature, which in turn promotes the biodegradation of the plastics. It is particularly effective in high-temperature and high-humidity environments and is very useful for promoting biodegradation in landfills and composting environments. ■ Principle STEP 1: Microorganisms are attracted to the added plastic. STEP 2: The attracted microorganisms generate colonies. STEP 3: Enzymes released by the microorganisms break down the polymer chains. It is compatible with various resins, including PE, PP, and PET, so it can be used for a wide range of applications, including cups, food containers, cosmetic containers, packaging materials, and chemical fibers. Plastics manufactured with the addition of this additive can accommodate general food and beverages, including cold and hot items, liquids, snacks, coffee beans, and raw foods. The basic addition rate is 1%, but the biodegradability can be adjusted according to the amount added. *Please feel free to contact us for more details.

basic information
**Features** ■Low Cost By adding just 1-3% during molding, it effectively promotes biodegradation. Additionally, by adjusting the amount added, it is possible to modify the duration required for biodegradation. ■Easy Plastibio is in pellet form, allowing for easy use by simply mixing it with resin before molding, without the need to change the manufacturing process. No special storage conditions are required for the final product. ■Versatile It is compatible with various resins, including PE, PP, and PET, and there is no need to change the biodegradation-promoting pellets for each type of plastic resin. ■Biodegradation Performance The effectiveness of biodegradability has been confirmed based on various standards (ASTM D 5511, ASTM D 5526, ASTM D 5338, ISO/DIS15985). ■Safety It is composed of raw materials listed in the positive list established by Japan's Food Sanitation Act. It also confirms GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status through self-certification as defined by the U.S. FDA. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.*
