What material is environmentally friendly plastic bag?

The invention of plastic bags has indeed greatly facilitated people's lives, but it has to some extent increased environmental pollution. The birth of environmentally friendly plastic bags is precisely to solve the serious problem of pollution. So, what material are environmentally friendly plastic bags made of? Below is a brief introduction.

Firstly, the main materials of plastic bags commonly used in daily life are polyethylene (PE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), etc. The former is mainly used in food bags and daily grocery shopping bags; The latter is mainly used in printed materials, such as book packaging and films. In order to facilitate people's lives while protecting the environment, environmentally friendly plastic bags have emerged.

Secondly, the materials of environmentally friendly plastic bags are mainly their own PE, PVC, LDPE, etc. However, due to their difficult to degrade characteristics, some materials that help them decompose and degrade are added in the production of environmentally friendly plastic bags. The commonly added materials include starch or modified starch, cellulose, photosensitizers, or other biodegradable agents.

Finally, the addition of materials to eco-friendly plastic bags mainly ensures their original non-toxic and odorless characteristics, which can help them degrade and decompose themselves outdoors for about 2-3 months. This will greatly alleviate the pressure of environmental pollution.

The main material of environmentally friendly plastic bags is the addition of some additives that help with degradation, which can promote the decomposition of plastic bags. To provide people with better convenience in life while ensuring the environment.
