- The biodegradable
polymer materials or biodegradable plastics are an interesting
alternative to the materials based on petrol for some applications
because it has environmental benefits such as reduced greenhouse gas
emissions and lower energy consumption.
- Poly (lactic acid),
which is the most promising synthetic biodegradable polymer
materials currently, is a fully degradable polymer material
- The cost of synthesis
of high molecular weight PLA is high, and most biodegradable
plastics currently on the market are two and ten times as much as
the traditional plastics
- To make 1kg of PLA
requires just 1.6kg of sugar. Other types of bioplastics can require
significantly more natural resources to produce the same
amount of end-product.
- Processing of the PLA
resins can usually be done on existing, conventional extrusion
equipment.
- The Major
manufacturers/players covered in Global PLA Film Market report are
TORAY, Amcor, Plastic Suppliers, BI-AX International Inc, Taghleef
Industries, Warne
- Sheet/film extrusion
is a general processing technology with a lot of possibilities in
terms of dimensions and formulations
- PLA resins are
supplied in sealed aluminum-lined barrier packaging with a maximum
moisture content of 400 ppm. It is recommended to reduce the
moisture content before melt processing to a level less than 250 ppm
and preferably to 100 ppm.
- PLA resins can be
dried using most conventional drying systems
- Sheet extrusion can be
done on conventional extrusion equipment
- Blown film
extrusion is a well-known production technology to make thin films.
The low melt strength of PLA requires the use of additives, like
melt strength enhancers to be able to process neat PLA. Often PLA is
part of a compound to make biodegradable film for use in for example
shopping bags or as mulch film
