Enhancing Water Resistance: The Role of Anti-Hydrolysis Agents in Biodegradable Plastic Bags
Introduction In the quest for sustainable solutions, biodegradable plastics have gained significant attention as an alternative to traditional plastics. However, ensuring their durability in the face of water exposure remains a challenge. This article explores the application of anti-hydrolysis agents in biodegradable plastic bags, highlighting their role in enhancing water resistance and extending the lifespan […]
Application of carbodiimide anti-hydrolysis agent in starch-based plastics
Starch-based plastics are a type of biodegradable plastic made from renewable resources such as corn, potatoes, and cassava. They are considered to be environmentally friendly because they can be degraded into natural compounds under certain conditions, such as exposure to water, heat, and microorganisms. Compared to traditional petroleum-based plastics, starch-based plastics have lower environmental impact […]
Carbodiimide anti-hydrolysis agents: a new option to improve the service life of biodegradable mulch
Agricultural mulch is a widely used agricultural tillage material that effectively protects the soil, increases soil temperature and improves crop yields. However, traditional agricultural mulch materials, such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), are not biodegradable and cause environmental pollution and waste of resources when used, so there has been a trend to use biodegradable […]
Application of anti-hydrolysis agent in PLA and PBAT
Anti-hydrolysis agents are widely used in the polymer industry to improve the stability and durability of polymeric materials in humid environments. Among various polymers, polylactic acid (PLA) and polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) are two promising biodegradable polymers that have attracted considerable attention due to their unique properties and potential applications. PLA is a thermoplastic aliphatic […]
Knowledge of CPLA straws and the key additive polycarbodiimide
What are CPLA straws? CPLA straws are made by heating PLA, absorbing heat and exothermically crystallising it into CPLA, which is a crystallised PLA straw that combines the safety and environmental friendliness of PLA material with the convenience of consumer use. How are CPLA straws made? CPLA straws are usually made from heat resistant polylactic […]
Introduction of PLA straw and ways to improve its heat resistance
With the application of Plastic Restriction of many countries, plastic straws are gradually fading out and environmentally friendly straws are becoming a hotspot. Various restaurants and drinks shops are gradually replacing the common plastic straws with the green and environmentally friendly PLA biodegradable straws. Today, we would like to introduce you to the issues related […]
Improve the shelf life of PLA straws? Hydrolysis-resistant modification is very important!
PLA is one of the mainstream bio-based and biodegradable plastics with mature industrialization, large production volume and wide application. PLA has high mechanical strength and transparency, but its poor heat resistance, toughness and durability limit the application. For this reason, it is necessary to improve the aging resistance of PLA in terms of hydrolysis from […]
Application of anti-hydrolysis agent in PBAT
PBAT, with the full name polybutylene adipate terephthalate, has the following structural formula. It belongs to petrochemical-based biodegradable plastics and has become one of the very active degradable materials in research and market application at present. PBAT is a thermoplastic biodegradable plastic with excellent biodegradability and is often used as a blend with PLA for […]
Application of carbodiimide anti-hydrolysis agent in PLA
Polylactic acid (PLA), as a completely degradable polymer material, is called “green plastic” and has good biodegradability, which can be completely degraded by microorganisms in nature after use, eventually producing carbon dioxide and water, without polluting the environment. PLA also has good mechanical and physical properties and is suitable for various processing methods such as […]
