Blend of thermoplastic starch (TPS), aliphatic polyesters (AP) and natural plasticizers (glycerol and sorbitol). It is a fully biodegradable plastic based on corn starch which is a renewable material. Offers a high level of mechanical strength, good elongation properties and toughness. Used in biodegradable injection molded products such as cutlery, toothbrushes, combs, shavers, golf-tees, plant markers, extruded tubes, rods, biodegradable stakes and pegs, biodegradable tags, extruded pipes, injection molded caps and closures as well as compostable rigid products if wall thickness is kept below 1 mm. Compostable and biodegradable plastic based on a blend of thermoplastic starch (TPS), aliphatic polyesters (AP) and natural plasticizers. Is based on corn starch which is a renewable material. Offers a high level of mechanical strength, outstanding elongation properties and toughness. Is a completely biodegradable polymer suitable for the manufacturing of film-type products. It can be directly used in the film blowing process. It does not does not contain any non-degradable polymers such as PE, PP, PS and PVC. Independent university testing shows that after biodegradation BIOGRADE B-F does not leave any harmful residues. Possesses good compatibility. The film is transparent with no granulation or lines of TPS seen in the film. Has easy film blowing performance. The film bubble is stable and no additional air cooling is needed. Exhibits thermal sealing strength is as good as PE. Used in compostable bags, shopping bags/check-out bags, garbage bags, leaf litter bags, green bin liners and overwrap packaging. Biograde WS-50 by Biograde Limited is a water soluble, biodegradable and compostable resin for manufacture of plastic film based on thermoplastic starch (TPS). The solubility of the film is controllable and it dissolution increases with water temperature and agitation. Possesses good clarity and gloss, flushable and compatible with septic/sewage systems. It is non-toxic (also no eco-toxicity) and has intrinsic antistatic properties. Biograde WS-50 also has excellent tensile strength & elongation, highly resistant to oils, fats and fatty acids, printable without corona treatment, high oxygen barrier properties, soft and compliant hand feel. Used in dissolvable laundry bags (for 100% infection control), dissolvable dog poo bags for toilet disposal, dissolvable scallops bags for seeding juvenile scallops, dissolvable pigment bags, dissolvable bags for industrial chemicals (measured dose applications), dissolvable bags for agro-chemicals (measured dose applications, no exposure to chemicals by operator, ease of use and convenience).
