Biodegradable polymers
Various biodegradable polymers are available for the production of biodegradable powders for masterbatches, dot coating and 3D printing.
With its 20,000 Ton/year capacity, Jinhui ZhaoLong is the 2nd largest worldwide producer of PBAT (polybutyrate-adipate-terephthalate) virgin resin. Ecoworld® PBAT is the main masterbatch carrier for the film extrusion of compostable bags and flexible packaging.
The new Sipol Technipol® range of biopolymers PolyButylene Adipate Terephthalate (PBAT), PolyButylene Sebacate and Polybutylene Succinate (PBS) find applications in the production of masterbatches for compostable compounds for injection moulding and extrusion.
As previously mentioned, Polybutylenesebacate Technipol® 70 contains 60% of raw materials coming from renewable resources, and the content can be increased to 100% by using bio-1,4-butanediol (bioBDO).
