Chemical resistance and characteristics

Chemical resistance

Le PLA est sensible à l'hydrolyse (acides, bases, eau chaude) et se dégrade rapidement en compostage industriel. Résistance aux solvants et huiles limitée. Ne pas utiliser au-dessus de 50 °C. Inertie chimique correcte pour les emballages alimentaires à T° ambiante.

Recommended applications

Emballages alimentaires compostables (yaourts, salades), gobelets et couverts compostables, prototypes impression 3D, films agricoles, sachets compostables, décorations événementielles
