Abstract:
Disclosed herein are heat transfer and antifreeze compositions comprising 1,3-propanediol, wherein the 1,3-propanediol in said heat transfer or antifreeze composition has a bio-based carbon content of about 1% to 100%. In addition, it is preferred that the 1,3-propanediol be biologically-derived, and wherein upon biodegradation, the biologically-derived 1,3-propanediol contributes no anthropogenic CO2 emissions to the atmosphere.

Abstract:
At least one resin component which is selected from a biodegradable resin and a plant-based resin, and a flame retardancy-imparting component are kneaded to obtain a resin composition having flame retardancy. This resin composition makes it possible to apply the environment-friendly resin such as the biodegradable resin and the plant-based resin, for example, polylactic acid and polybutylene succinate to exterior bodies of home appliances. Particularly, in the case where polylactic acid is used with the acetylacetonatoiron as the flame-retardant component, a resin composition having excellent flame retardancy can be provided as a non-halogen material.
Abstract:
The present invention teaches a chemiluminescent device along with a process for its production. The invention specifically relates to a chemiluminescent article of manufacture which includes a containment device and chemical system, both of which may be selected so as to be particularly susceptible to environmental degradation subsequent to their use. In a preferred embodiment the chemiluminescent device is categorized as being biodegradable, i.e. designed to be capable of losing its physical form and re-entering the environment.
Abstract:
A composition of one or more biodegradable aliphatic and/or aliphatic-aromatic thermoplastic polyesters obtained by reactive extrusion of the polyesters with organic peroxides.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a family of preferably bio-based plasticisers and resins containing said plasticisers. The disclosed plasticisers belong to the poly (ester ether) family. Resins containing the plasticisers exhibit a broad range of applicability in terms of suitable processing techniques and utilisation for final products.
Abstract:
The application describes a polymer matrix that features a polymer mixed with an antimicrobial agent (e.g., a pathogen inactivating material). The polymer can be an ablative or a sacrificial polymer that will degrade over time in either a surface or bulk degradation method. In some embodiments, the polymer matrix can also include a labile molecule built into the backbone of the polymer.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are compositions and articles made therefrom, the compositions and articles comprising at least one hydrocolloid, at least one plasticizer, at least one filler and/or humectant and water. Typically, the components are derived from biological sources, such as seaweed, plants, or animals. Typically, the components are made from food quality ingredients, making the compositions and articles edible and/or biodegradable. The compositions are used to form articles, such as straws, and the articles have desirable flexibility and moisture barrier properties, such as swelling resistance, as well as biodegradability and/or compostability properties.

Abstract:
A cellulosic particle contains cellulose as its base constituent. If hydrophobized silica particles are attached to the cellulosic particle, the percentage detachment upon sonication of the silica particles is 50% or less.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a masterbatch composition comprising high concentration of biological entities having a polymer-degrading activity and uses thereof for manufacturing biodegradable plastic articles.
