Bioplastics: development is getting mature

During the 22nd China International Plastics and Rubber Industry Exhibition, Sinopec related persons and Dr. Qian Weili, President of PolyOne Polymers Co., Ltd. in Asia, said in an interview that with the development of biodegradable plastic technology, The gradual maturation of biodegradable materials such as lactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxybutyrate pentanoate copolyester (PHBV), will promote the biodegradability of plastic products, reduce the pollution brought by waste plastic products, and ultimately realize the resources and environment. The sustainable development finds a way out.
Breakthrough Brings Vitality to Life The Sinopec related person said in an interview with reporters that with the advent of biodegradable plastic materials such as PLA, plastics made of appropriate amounts of PLA and other biological materials were added to traditional non-degradable plastic products such as polyethylene. Products can be partially biodegraded, and the original mechanical properties have not changed significantly. This technological breakthrough has found a new way to solve the pollution of waste plastic products, and also brought new opportunities for the plastic value chain.
According to Dr. Qian Weili, the use of bioplastics and common plastics is common in Japan. For example, among Toyota's plastic parts, 30% use biodegradable plastics and 70% traditional plastics. This will not only increase the degree of degradation of the plastic parts, but also increase the cost, which is relatively easy for the market to accept. In Japan, plastic waste is disposed of incineration, and the use of bio-plastics in part will undoubtedly reduce carbon dioxide emissions and be more environmentally friendly. If waste plastics are disposed by landfill, the non-degradable parts of the partially degraded plastic products still exist, and their impact on the environment will change due to the difference in the blending ratio between bioplastics and ordinary plastics.
The application bottleneck is breaking According to Dr. Qian Wei, although the biodegradable plastic heat is formed on a global scale a few years ago, due to the relatively high price of biodegradable plastics, certain performance indicators are still far behind traditional plastics. Its market acceptance is not yet high.
He said that the high price is the most important reason for the promotion of bio-plastics, especially when the international oil price is relatively low, the price advantage of traditional plastics is very obvious. At present, international oil prices have hovered over a hundred dollars for a long time, and the price advantage of traditional plastics is gradually shrinking. The search for synthetic alternatives for petroleum routes, especially recyclable non-polluting materials, has become more urgent. This is biological. Plastics provide a favorable market support condition.
Secondly, the high temperature resistance of bioplastics is not good, and many bioplastics will be deformed at 50°C to 55°C. Therefore, their application fields and application ranges are greatly limited. In addition, bioplastics are generally brittle and have poor impact resistance, and are difficult to use in areas where automotive parts and components require high impact resistance. Dr. Qian said that further improvement of biodegradable plastic product performance and its promotion to electronic products, even automotive materials, can truly enable bioplastics to be widely used.
To this end, PolyOne has been working hard to improve the high temperature performance of bioplastics. In this exhibition, PolyOne introduced the biodegradable plastic technology it developed that improved the material's impact resistance and can be processed and used above 100°C. The introduction of high temperature resistant products has made it possible for bioplastics to be used in large-scale applications in household plastic products. At the just-concluded Consumer Goods Fair in Frankfurt, Germany, PolyOne partnered with leading home and office accessories suppliers to introduce biodegradable bathroom accessories. This product uses PHBV-developed biodegradable materials based on PHBV to make toothbrush holders, bathroom boxes, bathroom cups, dispensers, soap boxes and bath tubs more environmentally friendly while retaining the original design and quality standards. .
It is also known that the heat-resisting temperature of PLA bioplastics based on PLA and cellulose, which were developed jointly by Toray Corporation and Showa Corporation in Japan, has reached 150°C, and biopolymerization launched by Eastman and Japan Showa Polymers. Butadiene succinate can already be used as a packaging material for household appliances and electronic instruments. In short, the high-temperature resistance of biodegradable plastics is gradually improving, and the conditions for further promotion and application are gradually maturing.
Promotion needs policy support A person in Sinopec who declined to be named stated that in the initial stage of promotion, bioplastics needs policy support. He said that some developed countries have adopted the approach that the government has stipulated that malls and supermarkets must adopt plastic film products modified by biological materials such as PLA and have degradable properties. Such government regulation acts to promote the bioplastic industry and related The healthy development of the traditional plastic/bioplastic modification and its product processing industry is very necessary.
According to Xinhua News Agency, on March 2, 2007, the San Francisco City Council passed a bill prohibiting retailers and pharmacies from using traditional plastic bags. The bill stipulates that retailers such as supermarkets and pharmacies can only provide paper bags, sacks, or biodegradable plastic bags made from corn by-products. Chemical plastic bags are strictly prohibited. This bill has greatly promoted the application and promotion speed of bio-plastic bags.
According to Liao Authentician of the China Plastics Processing Industry Association, in order to actively promote biodegradable plastics and practice the concept of green Olympics, green procurement has become an important guideline for Olympic procurement. During the Olympic Games, biodegradable Plastic Tableware will be used selectively in concentrated dining places; biodegradable plastic tableware will be used in all places where disposable tableware is used. The Olympic Village will use more than 8 million biodegradable plastic bags to solve the environmental pollution problems caused by traditional plastic bags. This will undoubtedly be a good starting point for China to vigorously promote the application of East Bioplastics.
