In today’s era, plastic products are like a double-edged sword, bringing convenience at the same time, but also bringing an unprecedented crisis to the earth’s ecology. And plastic, once considered a miracle invention, is choking Marine life, depleting soil fertility and polluting every inch of land and water. Fortunately, degradable materials have emerged, like the dawn that breaks through the haze and brings hope for solving the plastic problem.
Traditional plastic products are petroleum-based and stubbornly resist natural degradation, taking hundreds of years to break down. In contrast, biodegradable materials are born with “environmental genes”. From the source of raw materials, many degradable materials are derived from the gifts of nature, such as polylactic acid (PLA) to corn, sugarcane ,bamboo powder and other crops as the source, starch-based materials are directly from plant starch. These raw materials are renewable, greatly reducing the dependence on scarce oil resources, and making resource recycling a reality.
Biodegradable materials rely on microbial “feast”, bacteria, fungi as food, decomposition into carbon dioxide, water and biomass, the whole process is like a natural metabolism, gentle and harmless.
Into the life scene, the figure of degradable materials is becoming more and more common. In the catering industry, disposable tableware has changed from a “white demon” to a green guardian, and degradable lunch boxes and straws need only be placed in a suitable composting environment to nourish the soil within a few months after meeting the needs of diners. In the field of agriculture, degradable mulch keeps the seeds warm and moist during spring planting, degrades naturally after autumn harvest, the soil structure is intact as before, and small creatures such as earthworms are still free to shuttle; Express packaging is also a new look, degradable express bags, bubble pads for online shopping escort, after reaching the hands of consumers, open the journey of degradation, do not add to the environment.
