Global Degradable Materials Market Professional Survey Report 2019

Photodegradable plastic is made of oil-based polymers, which when exposed to sunlight breaks by weakening of bonds. In addition, it contains a chemical additive, which absorbs light and attacks the polymer and breaks the bonds. Biodegradable plastics are made from oil or from plant-based products that are attacked by bacteria, fungi, or other microorganisms, which help plastics to degrade.
Households are the major producers of plastic waste and most of the waste comes from packaging. These wastes are dumped on landfills and few are recycled. Discarded packaging litter is hazardous to the living forms. Thus, increase in environmental concerns has led to the development of photodegradable and biodegradable packaging material.
Stringent government regulation to reduce plastic wastes has fueled the demand for biodegradable materials for packaging, thereby driving the market growth. Environmentalists and researchers are developing photodegradable and biodegradable packaging material, which includes polylactic acid (PLA), polybutylene succinate (PBS), PHBV, and others.
