rMIX: Production of Biodegradable PBAT Granules for AgricultureCode: 10477. We produce a biodegradable PBAT granule suitable for sustainable banana cultivation and other applications. PBAT granule is a biodegradable biomaterial designed for use in blow mold film production applications. It stands out for being compliant with home composting requirements. Its composition includes a biodegradable polymer of the aliphatic-aromatic copolyester type, enriched with minerals and vegetable oils. PBAT shows considerable potential for making thin films, making it ideal for the production of items such as shopping bags, waste bags, aprons, and breathable films. The main characteristics of the PBAT are: - A processing temperature range that varies between 140 and 155 degrees Celsius. - Excellent workability on traditional blown film production lines. - The ability to produce films with thicknesses as thin as 10 micrometres, with typical thicknesses ranging between 18 and 120 micrometres. - Good mechanical properties which guarantee its resistance and durability. - Moisture resistance, making it suitable for making organic waste bags. - Excellent welding capabilities to ensure secure closure of bags. - Possibility of being decorated with water-based flexographic printing techniques. - Certification of biodegradability at room temperature for films up to 70 micrometers thick. - Ready to use without the need for further treatments.

rMIX: Recycled PP Biopolymer Granule with Pomace FibreCode: 10156. We produce a biocompound consisting of a recycled polypropylene support in granules with the addition of pomace fibre. The recycled PP granule with pomace fiber is 100% recyclable. because, if collected separately, they can be used to produce the same products. In the recycled PP granule with pomace fibre, the molding temperatures can vary from 160°C to 190°C. Higher temperatures tend to cause deterioration of the fiber contained in the material. Recycled PP granule with pomace fiber is sensitive to air humidity and tends to absorb (or disperse) water vapor if exposed to humid (or dry) environments for long periods. Before use, drying at 60-70°C for 5-6 hours is recommended. Technical characteristics of the PP granule with pomace fibre: - Composition: PP 85% + pomace fiber 15% - Density: 0.940 gr./cm3 - Tensile modulus 1 mm/min: MPa 1400 - Tensile strength at break 5mm/min: MPa 20 - Tensile elongation at break 5mm/min: % 5.3 - Flexural modulus 2mm/min: MPa 1300 - Bending stress at 3.5% strain: MPa 30 - Impact resistance Izod serrated 23°C; 50%: KJ/m2 4 - Izod impact resistance without notch 23°C; 50%: KJ/m2 12 If you require further technical or commercial information you can contact our sales office.
