Plastic Biodegradation Testing System
The Plastic Biodegradation Testing System is a laboratory system used to evaluate the ultimate aerobic biodegradation performance and disintegration behavior of plastic materials under controlled composting conditions. By continuously measuring the carbon dioxide released during aerobic biodegradation, you can accurately determine the biodegradation percentage and material disintegration performance.
Application
You use this system to assess the biodegradability of plastic and bio-based materials under controlled composting environments.
It is suitable for testing biodegradable plastics, compostable plastics, bio-based polymer materials, packaging materials, agricultural films, shopping bags, polyester-based biodegradable plastics, and other polymer products intended for composting or environmental degradation evaluation.
Standards
The Plastic Biodegradation Testing System complies with and supports testing according to the following standards:
(1) GB/T 19277.1-2011 Determination of the ultimate aerobic biodegradability of materials under controlled composting conditions – Method by analysis of released carbon dioxide – Part 1: General method
