Degradable BOPLA Film
Fully known as Biaxially Oriented Polylactic Acid (PLA) Film, degradable BOPLA film is a novel bio-based and biodegradable membrane material. Made from bio-based and biodegradable PLA material through biaxial orientation technology, it possesses a series of unique properties and application advantages.
Material Analysis of Degradable BOPLA
Core Raw Material: Polylactic Acid (PLA)
Source: PLA is a bio-based material primarily derived from renewable biomass resources such as starch and cellulose, through processes like fermentation and polymerization.
Characteristics: PLA is non-toxic, odorless, biodegradable, highly transparent, and resistant to high and low temperatures. These characteristics make PLA an ideal material for producing BOPLA film.
Features of Degradable BOPLA
Bio-based and Biodegradable: BOPLA film, made from the bio-based material PLA, is biodegradable. Under industrial composting conditions, it can fully degrade into water and carbon dioxide within half a year, returning to nature.
Low Carbon and Environmentally Friendly: Being sourced from bio-based materials, BOPLA film significantly reduces carbon emissions. Its raw material carbon footprint and carbon emissions are about 70% less than traditional fossil-based plastics like PP, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the alleviation of plastic pollution.
Excellent Performance: BOPLA film features excellent waterproofness, optical properties (high light transmittance, low haze), and mechanical properties (good tensile strength and stable fold morphology). Additionally, it has good heat-sealing and antibacterial properties, making it suitable for various packaging applications.
Advantages of Degradable BOPLA
1. Broad Application Prospects: BOPLA film can be widely used in tamper-evident stickers and packaging fields such as electronics, food and beverages, and daily necessities. Its excellent barrier properties, light transmittance, and touch feel make it an ideal choice for packaging smartphones, tablets, snack foods, fresh produce, and more.
2. Environmentally Friendly and Carbon Reducing: As an eco-friendly film, the promotion and use of BOPLA film help reduce the consumption of petrochemical resources and greenhouse gas emissions. It aligns with national environmental policies and contributes to advancing China's "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality" strategic goals.
Application Fields of Degradable BOPLA Film
Food Packaging
- Fresh Produce: BOPLA film's crisp touch and non-toxic properties make it ideal for packaging fresh fruits and vegetables, protecting food while reducing pollution.
- Snack Foods: Its excellent barrier properties and high light transmittance make BOPLA film an ideal choice for packaging snack foods, preserving taste and freshness.
Household Product Packaging
- Tableware: BOPLA film can be used for packaging tableware, which is both aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly, aligning with modern people's pursuit of a green lifestyle.
- Disposable Items Such as Toilet Paper: Due to its biodegradability, also suitable for packaging disposable items like toilet paper, helping to reduce the generation of plastic waste.
Electronic Product Packaging
-Smartphone Screen Protectors: BOPLA film, with its excellent barrier properties, high light transmittance, and low haze, is ideal for packaging smartphones, protecting them from scratches and contamination.
- Tablets and Laptops: Similarly, these electronic products can also be packaged using BOPLA film to ensure product safety and integrity.
Flower Packaging
- The high light transmittance of BOPLA film makes it very suitable for packaging flowers, maintaining their brightness and gloss.
Window Films
- The transparency and flexibility of BOPLA film make it an ideal choice for transparent window films on envelopes and kraft paper lunch boxes, allowing convenient viewing of the contents inside the envelope.
Courier Tape
- Although BOPLA film currently faces some challenges in the courier tape industry, with technological advancements and market expansion, BOPLA film is expected to gradually replace traditional BOPP film and become a new choice in the courier tape industry in the future.
