Mali and Mauritania became the next countries of Africa to ban non biodegradable plastic bags. Tanzania, Uganda, South Africa and Kenya have already banned thin plastic bags, while Rwanda and Somalia have banned them completely. Countries like China have began to restrict the use of plastic bags within their country. [...]

Polylactic Acid or PLA manufactured by Natureworks LLC has come under fire recently with agriculture reports that show that nitrous oxide or N2O used in cheap fertilizers used in corn growing is contributing to green house gasses that are 310 times more potent than Co2 or  fifteen times more potent than CH4. The fertilizer [...]

PLA is a slow biodegradable plastic and biocompatible thermoplastic which can be produced by fermentation from renewable resources. It can also be synthesized either by condensation polymerization of lactic acid or by ring opening polymerization of lactide in the presence of a catalyst. The manufacture of PLA from lactic acid [...]

Jakarta, Indonesia Plastic Waste – Government officials begin to rethink their biodegradable plastic packaging regulations in Indonesia as the only technologies that are being represented in Indonesia are costly corn based and oxodegradable products. Recently Indonesia officials began implementing a recycling and separation program to isolate recyclable, biodegradable and reusable plastics. This will [...]

New Delhi has been at the forefront of plastic bans since 2000 allowing only biodegradable plastic. In recent events New Delhi passed the order for banning non-biodegradable plastic within the region. Plastic Ban “The state cabinet passed the plastic ban order on September 11 and the government notified it on [...]

Biodegradable plastic bags are between the cross hairs of yet another country in the world. Last week Morocco the second largest user of plastic bags worldwide, behind the United States created a movement against plastic bags being used. “Morocco without plastic bags” campaign. A bill on the use of degradable [...]

Compostable defines a product or material that can be broken down by nature into naturally occurring products within a period of 180 days at 140 degrees F in the United States, the EN 13432 represents the time frame allowed in Europe of 180 days at 131 – 134.5F. Most materials [...]

BioSphere plastic additive has moved rapidly throughout the world as they have developed a cost affordable solution that in some cases have reduced costs for manufacturers up to 70% [...]

Abstract In this work, we synthesized a novel hydrogel based on poly(acrylamide) grafted Guar/locust bean gums, i.e. (GG/LBG-g-poly(AAm)) through free radical polymerization, aiming for the removal of malachite green (MG) dye from aqueous solutions. Response surface methodology and a full factorial rotatable central composite design were used to optimize various [...]

Abstract With the development of wearable electronic devices, flexible sensors have received widespread attention, especially for high sensitivity sensors. However, sensors prepared by conventional processes such as hot pressing, vacuum filtration and so forth are not sensitive enough to meet the needs of healthy detection. In order to solve this [...]

Abstract A new strategy was developed to build a CO2-philic/hydrophilic surfactant by combining the common free radical polymerization and the grafting modification technology, and a brush polymer was synthesized with poly(vinyl acetate)(PVAc) based copolymer as the CO2-philic group (as the main chain) and the methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mPEG) as the [...]

Abstract Considering the essence of high electron density of ligands, frameworks with high electron donating groups are important in the transition-metal catalytic systems. As benzhydrol groups have been investigated for their beneficial electronic effects, a novel homo-dinuclear Ni (II) catalyst based on benzhydrol-substituted ligand was synthesized, characterized, and used for [...]

Abstract Nafion membranes are commercially available for the application of direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) due to their unique nano-porous structure, high wettability, high ion exchange capacity due to sulfonic groups and high mechanical strength. However, its high cost and high swelling in water result in high methanol crossover, low [...]

Abstract The partial or total replacement of carbon black by silica fillers is initiated through various techniques for environment-friendly, smart, and fuel-efficient NR composites for high-end dynamic applications like tyre tread. The smart properties such as low rolling resistance, better wet skid resistance, and abrasion resistance as well as noise [...]

Abstract Herein, we developed a reversible complexation mediated polymerization (RCMP) starting with a complex of iodine and organic salt as a deactivator and a thermal initiator for continuous regeneration of the organic salt activator. This novel polymerization method can be called as initiators for continuous activator regeneration (ICAR) RCMP, as [...]

Abstract To develop materials with improved optical qualities and tunable refractive indices that can be utilized to control the behavior of light or electromagnetic radiations, polymer thin films have been used. High refractive index (RI) nanoparticle-incorporated polymer thin films are usually made by combining high RI inorganic nanoscale structures with [...]

Abstract Coronary restenosis is the primary unsolved problem following open heart surgery or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, and yet, it remains unknown how a pharmaceutical strategy minimizes restenosis by scaffold-based administration of several medicines. In this study, 3D-printed hexagonal polymer scaffolds of sodium alginate/hyaluronic acid/gelatin (SA/HA/Gel) loaded with heparin drug [...]

Polylactic acid or PLA is a material which has been around for tens of years. Until recently no major producer of PLA existed until they were funded by mega corporations to come into the marketplace to replace synthetic plastic. BioSphere Plastic has been asked is PLA biodegradable, while the answer is not simple we have... The post Is PLA Compostable? appeared first on BioSphere Plastic. [...]

AHMEDABAD – Three bacteria families have been isolated by the research team at A&R Institute of Biotechnology. The microorganisms have been said to break down polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride. Researchers at the Institute are now moving their laboratory scale testing into real world environments at the local landfill. The testing will be conducted using... The post A&R Patel Institute of Biotechnology prove microbes consume plastic appeared first on BioSphere Plastic. [...]

BioSphere Plastic tests their product with 52-55% solids content and 45-48% moisture content, We also simulate drier landfills at 20 and 40% moisture content and 60-80% solid contents. Typical landfills are around 35% moisture content with premium biodegradation at 45% moisture content. Typical landfill moisture and solids content range from site to site within a... The post Moisture content of landfills: Testing to Simulate Landfills appeared first on BioSphere Plastic. [...]

EuPC is the EU-level Trade Association, based in Brussels, representing European Plastics Converters. Conducted a study spanning over six months testing the impact of Oxo-degradable technologies.
