Introducing PHAlife™-PB3430: A Sustainable Thermoplastic Bio-Based Polyester
PHAlife™-PB3430 emerges as a cutting-edge thermoplastic bio-based polyester, specifically designed to facilitate both compost and natural degradation across a broad array of environments. This innovative material is compatible with industrial composting, home composting, soil, river water, and marine degradation processes. PB3430 distinguishes itself with superior performance in heat resistance, strength, and its water and oxygen barrier capabilities, all while maintaining low carbon emissions.
Optimal Use Cases:
PHAlife™-PB3430 is engineered for flexibility across manufacturing and production methodologies, making it a perfect fit for injection molding, casting, extrusion, blown film, fiber production, and 3D printing. This versatility extends to its suitability for blend modifications with other biodegradable polymers, including PLA, PBS, and PBAT. By incorporating PB3430 into these materials, it is possible to significantly enhance their thermal stability, barrier properties against water and oxygen, reduce their carbon footprint, and finely tune the degradation pace of the composite materials. This positions PB3430 as a pivotal component in the development of more sustainable, high-performance biodegradable products.
