Go Yen Chemical GY-DG-80 Eco-Friendly Solution to Biodegradation
Categories: Other Engineering Material; Additive/Filler for Polymer

Material Notes: Intro: Environmental issues have become market trends and even turn out to be a part of the factors that increase the product value. Hence, a huge number of international labels show their initiative on using, producing and selling products that are composed of bioplastics. Poly lactic acid (PLA) is an eco-friendly material that people currently pay much attention to. However, PLA is with a short period of storage and high price, and features weak oil/heat resistant properties; additionally, it cannot be recycled, mixed with other general plastics or be processed easily and efficiently. Due to the flaws, PLA can still not be used largely and broadly as yet. GO YEN CHEMICAL INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD. (GYC GROUP) is currently the largest manufacturer of functional additives in Asia where two of our factories are built. As for a long period of time we put our efforts on high-end, ecofriendly and innovative research and development to improve the existing flaws of biodegradable materials on the present market in order to develop materials that can be processed efficiently and for mass production, we are able to provide a total solution to the worldwide processing or producing issues of biodegradable materials.

Features/Advantages:

  • High decomposition efficiency
  • Environmental conditions such as soil, moisture, sunlight (ultraviolet), heat, bacteria, oxygen in the air will improve the decomposition efficiency
  • Great compatibility with plastics that can be processed with polyolefins or engineering plastics
  • Ease of storage
  • High processability with plastics
  • Will decompose naturally after buried and will lessen the quantity of trash
  • Can be used as a replacement of traditional plastic or PLA
  • Can be used in disposable plastic bags or other related products
Applications:
  • General plastics including polyolefins: PP, PE, HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, EVA, PEVA, TPO, etc.
  • Engineering plastics: ABS, PS, etc.
  • Disposable plastic bags or other related products
  • Agricultural uses: agricultural film, thin film, cup for growing seedlings, fruit foam mesh wrap, etc.
  • Industrial uses: packing material, bottle, can, bandage, etc.
  • Containers for food, drink, lotion (shampoo, liquid soap), etc.
