biodegradable Polymer

Product Details:

1. Bioplastics like polylactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and starch-based resins like Novamont’s Mater-Bi can be more colorful, thanks to new masterbatch choices from Clariant. 

2. Options can include natural colors drawn from renewable sources like plants, or conventional, man-made ingredients in a compatible carrier produced in compliance with standards governing compostability and ecotoxicity. 

3. Formulations are available for food-contact applications and many carry “OK compost” certification and comply with widely recognized standards for heavy-metal content and plant-toxicity.

4. More economical and more process- and light-stable than all-natural products, they represent a convenient alternative.
