    【Chemical machinery and equipment network market analysis】Plastic waste pollution once formed a "white ocean", which brought convenience to plastic products and brought great harm
    to the ecological environment.
    Especially under the tussing of rivers and lakes, a large amount of plastic waste has accumulated in the marine system, and gradually caused microplastic anxiety, and outlined food safety problems in the way of food chain circulation
    .

     
    So far, the harm caused by plastic waste pollution, especially the improper disposal of disposable plastic products, has attracted great attention
    from the world.
    A "quick victory in the plastic war" has put bioplastics and degradable plastic products on the wind
    .

     
    Bioplastics –
     
    That is, plastics produced from renewable biomass resources, including vegetable oil, cornstarch, straw, kitchen waste, etc.
    , are the biggest feature of which the degradation cycle does not need to be as long as hundreds of years, and the difficulty of degradation is not as high
    as that of traditional plastic products.
    At present, bioplastics can be divided into starch-based, cellulose-based, protein-based, aliphatic polyesters and so on
    .

     
    However, at present, with the deepening of technical research, the types of bioplastics are still running
    wildly on the road of diversification.
    For example, sugar-based plastics, which are a new type of PET plastic material developed by scientists at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), the precursor material is lignin, and the degradation product is sugar, and the researchers said that the technology can convert 25% of agricultural waste or 95% of purified sugar into bioplastics
    .

     
    Similarly, Jayaraman Sivaguru of the Bowlingrin State University Photochemistry Center in Ohio and Mukund P.
    Sibi and Dean C.
    Webster of North Dakota State University have also made technological breakthroughs
    in the study of biomass plastics.
    The study showed that the vanillin derivative developed by the team is also produced from materials such as lignin, and 60% of the monomer
    can be recovered through phototriggered degradation of the polymer.

     
    Of course, there are still some unsolved problems in the bioplastics market, such as standards, such as cost, such as biohazards, such as practicality, such as consumer acceptance, and so on
    .
    According to market data, there are two main categories of bio-based degradable plastics, the cost of PHA production tons is about 60,000 to 70,000, and PLA is about 20,000 to 30,000, of which the price of PHA is about 6 times the price of traditional plastics
    .

     
    From the perspective of development potential, European Bioplastics data said that the global bioplastics and polymers market is expected to reach more than 180 billion yuan by the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan", with a compound growth rate of about
    20%.
    China's double blockade of "plastic ban" and foreign garbage ban, policies and standards frequently "show favor", the development of the bioplastics market is also prosperous
    .

     
    For example, Jindan Technology, which has broken through lactide production technology, has opened up the whole industrial chain of "lactic acid-lactide-polylactic acid"; For example, Zhongbao New Materials, the net profit margin reached 30.
    5% in 2021; Home Link Technology has successfully mass-produced different biodegradable products using a variety of independent formulas; For example, Daoen Co.
    , Ltd.
    signed the "Shandong Daoen Polymer Materials Co.
    , Ltd.
    Annual Output of 120,000 Tons of Biodegradable Resin Project Phase I Engineering Service Contract" with China Textile Institute; For example, Changhong Hi-Tech has completed the first phase of 120,000 tons/year fully biodegradable plastic industrial park project.
    .
    .

     
    Environmental protection policies are becoming increasingly strict, environmental protection standards are becoming more and more standardized, and the development of degradable plastics and bioplastic products has ushered in a highlight moment
    .
    At this point, technological breakthroughs have become the key to replacing traditional plastic products, and the pace of mass production and commercial application has accelerated, which meets the inherent requirements
    of the construction of a high-quality development economic system and the realization of the dual carbon goal.
