Degradant for polymers
Compostable agent | |
With the addition of 1% of our compound GC001 to polymers; PE, PP, PS, PET, PBT etc., accelerates the natural biodegradation of plastics in biologically active landfills and anaerobic digesters validated by independent certified laboratories that use the International test according to ASTM methods. Independent third-party testing has shown up to 62.5% biodegradation in just under 9 months in replicated landfill tests (ASTM D5526). Accelerates the biodegradation of your plastics in waste environment through natural microbial activity, and are not affected by light, heat, humidity, UV and oxygen. Our GC001 compound for plastic works with virtually any type of polymer with a concentration of 1% to improve the rate of biodegradation when the product is removed in an active microbial environment (both aerobic and anaerobic). Our additive is easy to use, it should not require you to make any changes to your process, nor should you change the physical characteristics of your finished product. It is not an oxo-degradable Our additive is safe for food, non-toxic and very different from an oxo-degradable. It has an unlimited lifespan, since it is not affected by heat, light and mechanical stress. Our additive does not begin to biodegrade until it enters an active microbial environment, such as a landfill or a composting facility. We attach our white paper on our technology and how it differs from oxo-degradable technology. | |
