What are the uses of degradable plastic production equipment

With the increasing global demand for low-carbon, energy-saving, and environmental protection, as well as people's pursuit of quality of life, degradable plastic production equipment is replacing traditional plastic products as a new type of green material. So, let's learn about the uses of degradable plastic production equipment together!
One is the field where ordinary plastic was originally used. In these fields, if it is difficult to collect plastic products for use or consumption, it will have adverse effects on the environment such as agricultural film and disposable plastic packaging.
The second domain uses plastic instead of other materials. In these fields, it is convenient to use biodegradable plastics such as golf course studs and tropical rainforest seedling fixing materials. Specific use:
1) Agriculture, forestry, fishery, plastic film, water retaining materials, seedling pots, seedbeds, rope nets, pesticides, and slow-release materials for agricultural fertilizers.
2) Packaging industry, shopping bags, garbage bags, compost bags, disposable lunch boxes, instant noodles bowls, buffer packaging materials.
3) Sports equipment, golf course spikes, saddle.
4) Sanitary products, women's hygiene products, baby diapers, medical mattresses, disposable razor blades.
5) Medical materials, bandages, clips, cotton swabs, gloves, drug release materials, as well as surgical sutures and fracture fixation materials.
The decomposition of polymers refers to the process of polymer ingots breaking due to chemical and physical factors. Polymers are exposed to oxygen, water, heat, radiation, chemicals, pollutants, and mechanical forces. The decomposition process of macromolecular chain breakage under environmental conditions such as insects and microorganisms is called environmental decomposition. Decomposition will reduce the molecular weight of polymers, reduce the physical properties of polymer materials, until the possibility of polymer materials losing their use, this phenomenon is also known as aging decomposition of polymer materials.
Both natural and synthetic polymers decompose under environmental conditions, but under the same environmental conditions, the decomposition sensitivity of each polymer, especially synthetic polymers, varies greatly, resulting in different decomposability of each polymer. For example, polypropylene is prone to decomposition in a photo oxygen environment, but polystyrene is difficult to decompose in the same environment. Polyvinyl alcohol is prone to decomposition in certain microbial environments, and polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene are also prone to decomposition
The production equipment for degradable plastics mainly involves biodegradation, photolysis, and chemical degradation, and these three main degradation processes have synergistic, synergistic, and consistent effects with each other. For example, photodegradation and oxide decomposition always occur simultaneously and promote each other; Biodegradation easily occurs after the photolysis process.
The degradation of polymers is directly related to their stability. The aging and decomposition of polymers can shorten the lifespan of plastics. Therefore, since the advent of plastics, scientists have been committed to preventing the aging of such materials, namely stabilizing research, and manufacturing highly stable polymer materials. Currently, scientists from various countries are also using the aging and decomposition behavior of polymers to compete for the development of environmentally friendly decomposition plastics.
