意大利的Ferruggi化学品公司声称它是世界上第一个发明了真正的生物分解塑料。上个月该公司在推出75万只用这种塑料制作的“米老鼠”手表时,公布了这项发明。这种塑料已经申请专利,并打算明年投入生产。负责这项研究的科学家阿米卡尔·科林纳说,该公司的塑料不同于目前用来制造用后随手丢弃的物品,如购物包装袋那样的生物分解塑料。那种塑料袋是由“缝隙”中含有淀粉的聚乙烯网膜制成的。土壤中的微生物只能分解淀粉,而不能分解聚乙烯,因此塑料袋只能部分分解。他们的新型塑料也含有淀粉即玉米淀
Ferruggi Chemicals of Italy claims it is the first in the world to invent a truly biodegradable plastic. The company announced the invention last month when it launched 750,000 Mickey Mouse watches made of this plastic. This plastic has already applied for a patent, and plans to put into production next year. The scientist responsible for this research, Amilkar Collina, said that the company’s plastic is different from what is currently used to make items that are discarded after use, such as biodegradable plastics such as shopping bags. The plastic bag is made from a polyethylene mesh containing starch in the “gap”. Microorganisms in the soil can only decompose starch and cannot decompose polyethylene, so plastic bags can only be partially decomposed. Their new plastic also contains starch that is corn lake
