With the popularity of the Internet, our life is becoming more and more convenient, especially the rapid development of the takeout platform, which brings convenience to our life, but also causes white pollution. According to the statistics of the three major take-out platforms in 2017, about 60 million waste lunch boxes (cups) are produced every day, which can be stacked up to more than 330 Everest heights according to the height of the lunch box of 5 cm. The resulting large-scale white pollution has exacerbated the deterioration of the environment. Therefore, the active development and utilization of degradable packaging plays a positive role in environmental protection and the sustainable development of the plastic industry.
So, what are the advantages of degradable packaging?
1. Degradable packaging is made of natural materials, with good permeability, non-toxic and harmless;
2. Degradable packaging can be completely decomposed after being buried or composted without any negative impact on the environment.
3. The physical properties of degradable packaging can replace plastic materials based on petroleum
