The bioplastic heat challenge
Most bioplastics of the past have had the major drawback that they could not withstand high temperatures. However, Corbion Purac has developed a solution with PLA-based bioplastics.
PLA is an acronym that describes not just one product, but actually a range of different polymers. By combining D and L Lactides in different ways, stereo-complex polymers with a wide range of properties such as increased heat stability can be produced.
Groundbreaking high heat technology from Purac
Using D Lactide, stereo-complex technology can be used to develop a range of new heat-resistant PLA applications. Corbion Purac has demonstrated that this is not just a theory by developing a range of technologies in cooperation with Universities, Institutes, compounders and brand owners.
Corbion Purac has developed a high heat PLA variety that can withstand temperatures up to 180ºC / 356ºF. This heat resistant bioplastic is ideal for biobased beverage cups for hot drinks such as coffee, soup, hot chocolate, tea, etc. |
