Food Contact Resin – Jiangxi Keyuan Bio-Material Co., Ltd

Severe Challenge of Health and Environment:

→There are 1 million plastic bottles sold in every minute in the world, and more than 480 billion plastic beverage bottles are sold in one year, which will be 20% more by 2021. Plastic bottles are mainly made from PET which will release cancerogen DEHP after ten-month utilization or high temperature exposure, and it is undegradable after abandoned, thus polluting the land and marine resources.

→With the emerging of take-out business in China, shown by the data of such three major platforms as Meituan Take-out, Eleme and Baidu Take-out, the daily orders all exceed 20 million, which brings increasingly growing consumption of disposable plastic food container and tableware! PP, as the major material of plastic box, is unable to be degraded after abandoned.

→PC is the major material of feeding bottle. As bisphenol A is a kind of toxic chemical, PC able to transfer bisphenol A is disclosed to affect baby’s development.

→PLA, as safer and more environmental-friendly plastic resin, is a perfect choice to substitute PET, PP and PC!

What is PLA?

PLA is biodegradable and bioactive thermoplastic aliphatic polyester derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch, cassava roots, chips or starch, sugarcane. PLA can be processed by extrusion such as 3d printing, injection molding, film and sheet casting, and spinning, providing access to a wide range of materials.

Superiorities of PLA

➢Safety: plant-sourced raw materials, and its monomers are lactic acid which is commonly-used food additives, one of the major ingredients of yoghurt.

➢Biodegradable: PLA products will be biologically degraded as carbon dioxide and water after abandoned, which realizes the biological circulation. It takes hundreds of years for the degradation of petroleum-based plastics. Moreover, the life cycle of PLA is more low-carbon and environmental-friendly, able to reduce 2/3 carbon emission compared with PET.
