Bionolle™ 1001 MD

Polybutylene succinate. Bionolle™ 1001 MD by Resonac (formerly Showa Denko) is an aliphatic polyester resin that has the versatility of common plastics. While Bionolle™ is stable under ordinary conditions it becomes biodegradable in the presence of microorganism, e.g. compost, wet soil, fresh water, seawater and activated sludge. It will decompose completely into water and carbon dioxide and is therefore called "Eco-friendly material". Has high modulus and slow biodegradability. Has a MFR of less than 3 g/10 min. This makes it suitable for blown-film extrusion and facilitates the production of thin, high quality film by using conventional blown film extruders. Film made of Bionolle™ shows excellent mechanical properties similar to film made of LLDPE. Used in mulching film, trash bag, plant pot, filament, yarn, net, bottle, gloves, container, laminated paper, tray, comb, golf tee, foamed tube, frame of fan and peg.
