Have you ever heard of disposable degradable and compostable tableware? What are their advantages? Let's learn about the raw materials of sugar cane pulp!
Disposable tableware generally exists in our lives. Because of the advantages of low cost and convenience, the habit of "using plastic" still exists even in today's plastic restrictions and bans. But now with the improvement of environmental awareness and the popularization of low-carbon life, degradable tableware is gradually occupying a position in the market, and sugarcane pulp tableware is one of them.
Sugarcane pulp is a kind of paper pulp. The source is sugarcane bagasse that has been squeezed out of sugar. It is a tableware made through the steps of pulping, dissolving, pulping, pulping, molding, trimming, disinfection, and finished products. Sugarcane fiber is a medium and long fiber with the advantages of moderate strength and moderate toughness, and is currently a relatively suitable raw material for molding products.
The properties of bagasse fibers can be naturally entangled together to form a tight network structure, which can be used to make lunch boxes for people. This new type of green tableware has relatively good hardness and can meet the needs of take-out packaging and household food storage. The material is safe, can be naturally degraded, and can be decomposed into organic matter in the natural environment.
These organic matter are usually carbon dioxide and water. If the leftovers we usually eat are composted with this kind of lunch box, wouldn’t it save time for garbage sorting? In addition, sugarcane bagasse can also be directly composted in daily life, processed by adding microbial decomposing agent, and directly placed in flowerpots to grow flowers. Bagasse can make the soil loose and breathable and improve the acidity and alkalinity of the soil.
The production process of sugarcane pulp tableware is plant fiber molding. One of its advantages is high plasticity. Therefore, tableware made of sugarcane pulp can basically meet the tableware used in family life and gatherings of relatives and friends. And it will also be applied to some other high-end mobile phone holders, gift box packaging, cosmetics and other packaging.
Sugarcane pulp tableware is non-polluting and waste-free in the production process. The safety inspection and use quality of products are up to the standard, and one of the highlights of sugarcane pulp tableware is that it can be heated in a microwave oven (120°) and can hold Put 100 ° hot water, of course, can also be refrigerated in the refrigerator.
With the continuous adjustment of environmental protection policies, degradable materials have gradually opened up new opportunities in the market, and environmentally friendly and degradable tableware will gradually replace plastic products in the future.
