Diverse application scenarios open up a new way of green living

In the global wave of green transformation, biodegradable plastics are no longer confined to a single packaging field. Instead, with their environmentally friendly and completely degradable characteristics, they are shining in numerous scenarios and have become a key force driving the green upgrade of various industries.

Daily Consumption field: Comprehensive penetration from packaging to daily necessities

In food consumption scenarios, disposable tableware made of biodegradable plastics has been widely used in chain restaurants and food delivery platforms. These tableware can be quickly degraded through industrial composting after meals, avoiding the long-term pollution to the environment caused by traditional plastic tableware.

The daily necessities sector is also full of highlights. Sample packaging of shampoo and body wash made of biodegradable plastics not only meets consumers' trial needs but also solves the problem that small plastic bottles for travel are difficult to recycle. Even children's toys have begun to use biodegradable materials. Parents no longer need to worry that the toys will become "stubborn garbage" in the environment when their children get tired of playing with them and throw them away.

Agricultural Sector: Facilitating innovative practices in ecological agriculture

Agricultural mulching film is an important application scenario for biodegradable plastics. The residue of traditional plastic mulching film in the soil can lead to poor soil aeration and poor root development of crops. However, biodegradable mulching film can naturally degrade into water and carbon dioxide in the soil after the growth cycle of crops ends, without affecting the planting of the next season's crops. In the cotton-growing areas of Xinjiang, China, the application area of biodegradable mulching film has been expanding year by year. Cotton farmers have reported that the soil quality has significantly improved and the cotton yield has also increased after its use.

In addition, biodegradable plastics are also used in agricultural seedling POTS. In the past, most seedling POTS were made of plastic and needed to be manually removed during transplanting, which could easily damage the crop roots. However, biodegradable seedling POTS can be buried in the soil along with the crop roots and naturally degrade. This not only saves labor but also ensures the growth of crops.

Industrial and high-end Manufacturing sectors: Continuous breakthroughs in innovative applications

In the field of 3D printing, biodegradable plastic filaments are highly favored. Engineers can use the models and parts they print. After completing purposes such as display and testing, they can be quickly degraded through composting. This is especially suitable for short-term use scenarios such as architectural models and cultural and creative products, greatly reducing the waste pollution caused by traditional 3D printed plastic parts.

The automotive industry is also exploring the application of biodegradable plastics. Some interior parts of automobiles have begun to use biodegradable materials, and these components can naturally degrade after the car is scrapped, reducing the environmental burden after the car is dismantled.

From daily consumption to agriculture and then to industrial manufacturing, the application scenarios of biodegradable plastics are expanding at an astonishing speed. The implementation of each application scenario is a practice of the green and environmental protection concept and also a new driving force for the development of the industry. With the further maturation of technology and the gradual decline in costs, biodegradable plastics are bound to replace traditional plastics in more fields and contribute more to global green and sustainable development.
