Introduction For Eco-Friendly Products
1、Biodegradable Pouches (Flexible Packaging Bags & Pouches) What is a biodegradable pouch? A biodegradable and compostable pouch is a pouch that can be broken down naturally by microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The process is sped up by temperature and humidity. In biodegradation, organic chemicals in the packaging are converted to simpler compounds via the elemental cycles like the carbon, nitrogen, and sulphur cycles. Biodegradable pouch packaging is eco-friendly, preventing plastic waste. What types of materials can be used in biodegradable pouches? Materials that biodegrade well and are great for manufacturing pouches include Kraft paper, sugarcane or bagasse, starch, wood pulp, potato pulp, cotton, bioplastic, PE, PP, palm leaf, and more. These are natural materials that are easy to biodegrade. What conditions do biodegradable pouches need to make the pouch biodegrade? Each environment contains different microorganisms and has different conditions for biodegradation. Usually, to be able to work effectively, most microorganisms that carry out the biodegradation process need light, water and oxygen. Temperature is also an important factor in the rate of biodegradation—warmth speeds it up, …
