PRODURA Biobased Polymer Resins
PRODURA Biobased Polymer Resins are made from renewable resources like surplus vegetable oils. This means that our resins do not rely on fossil fuels, reducing our carbon footprint and helping combat climate change. Biodegradable biobased polymer resin refers to a type of resin that can undergo decomposition by natural processes, such as the action of microorganisms or exposure to environmental conditions, within a reasonable timeframe.
These resins are designed to be more environmentally friendly compared to conventional, non-biodegradable resins. These resins break down naturally over time, returning to the Earth without leaving behind harmful microplastics. It is a game-changer for our oceans, wildlife, and overall ecosystem health. By choosing products made from renewal resource resins, we are actively contributing to a cleaner and healthier planet.
These polymer resins are incredibly versatile. They can be used to create a wide range of products, from packaging materials to disposable cutlery and even clothing. Look for our sustainable alternative resins to make a positive impact without sacrificing quality.
Plant-based biodegradable polymers have a wide range of applications across various industries. Some of the common applications include:
- Packaging: Plant-based biodegradable polymers are used in the production of packaging materials, such as films, bags, and containers. These polymers offer an eco-friendly alternative to conventional plastic packaging and can help reduce environmental impact.
- Agriculture: Biodegradable polymers derived from plants can be used in agriculture for applications like mulch films, seed coatings, and biodegradable plant pots. These polymers help improve soil health, reduce plastic waste, and provide sustainable solutions for farming practices.
- Textiles and Apparel: Plant-based biodegradable polymers can be utilized in the textile industry to produce sustainable fibers and fabrics. These polymers can be processed into materials that are soft, breathable, and suitable for clothing, home textiles, and non-woven applications.
- Medical and Pharmaceutical: Biodegradable polymers derived from plants are used in medical and pharmaceutical applications, such as drug delivery systems, surgical sutures, and tissue engineering. They provide controlled release of drugs, eliminate the need for subsequent removal, and promote healing.
- Personal Care Products: Plant-based biodegradable polymers find applications in personal care products like cosmetics, toiletries, and hygiene items. They can be used as film formers, thickeners, and stabilizers, replacing synthetic polymers, and reducing the environmental impact of these products.
- 3D Printing: Plant-based biodegradable polymers are also used in the field of 3D printing. These polymers provide sustainable alternatives for creating prototypes, architectural models, and consumer goods, minimizing the environmental impact associated with traditional plastic-based printing materials.
