On the decomposition mechanism of the microbial-decomposable plastic additive "P-Life."
Repeatedly causes oxidation and reduction reactions! It is possible to continuously induce and promote oxidative decomposition.
We would like to introduce the decomposition mechanism of our microbial biodegradable plastic additive, "P-Life." It has a mechanism that repeatedly undergoes oxidation and reduction reactions, allowing for the continuous induction and promotion of oxidative decomposition by incorporating radicals into the carbon chains of the polymer. The formed oxides (for example, carboxylic acids) are digested and absorbed by microorganisms in soil or compost environments. Ultimately, they are transformed into CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) through metabolic activities such as respiration. 【Features】 ■ Possesses a mechanism that repeatedly undergoes oxidation and reduction reactions ■ Capable of continuously inducing and promoting oxidative decomposition ■ The polymer is depolymerized and forms oxides (functional groups) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Company information
P-Life Japan Inc. has developed the P-Life additive, which enables the microbial degradation of non-biodegradable plastics such as polyethylene and polypropylene, since 2000, in response to the growing awareness of environmental issues in recent years. We began selling it in the global market in 2003. Currently, microbial degradation plastic products using the P-Life additive are being used in over 25 countries worldwide.
