London, UK, March 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Market Definition:
• Biodegradable plastics are plastics made from traditional petrochemicals or with certain renewable resources.
• Biodegradable plastics are of two types namely; oxo-biodegradable and hydro-biodegradable.
• These plastics contain additives that cause them to break down more quickly compared to the conventional plastics and be decomposed by the action of living organisms, such as bacteria.
• Its ability to decay rapidly in the presence of light and oxygen makes it more environment friendly.
Market Overview and Trends
• With advancements in the technology and increasing population, the use of plastics has widely increased in various industries.
• The traditional or conventional plastic material are non-biodegradable and pose harmful effects on environment.
• This encouraged development of biodegradable plastics as an effective alternative for the traditional practices.
• Though these plastic materials are widely accepted, number of disputes were created regarding the betterment of these products.
• In 2014, some associates of the European Parliament tried to bring a complete ban on oxydegradable plastics in the European Union.
• Such actions resulted in more detailed study of the biodegradable plastics to confirm their affectivity.
• Not all types of biodegradable plastic can break down completely under soil or water conditions, however researchers say that if managed carefully, the biodegradable plastic blends are expected to create new possibilities for handling plastic waste.
