EcoPure
From Green PlasticsEcoPure is an additive that can be used to make regular plastics degrade over time, created by Bio-Tec Environmental. "EcoPure is a biodegradable plastics additive... When mixed into raw plastic at less than 1%, it allows that plastic to break down—but only when placed in a microbe rich environment, such as a landfill or compost facility. It provides the best of both worlds. The biodegradable plastic product is still as useful as it ever was. Consumers like it because they still get all the safety and convenience that plastic brings, while at the same time knowing they are not leaving a nightmare for our children’s children. Manufacturers like it because they don’t have to change their raw material or manufacturing process. And EcoPure is manufactured right here in the United States. "For manufacturers, EcoPure is simple to use. It is mixed in with the primary resin, just like color concentrates are, at the time the final product is made. And after the product has completed its useful life, it can be put into a landfill or a compost facility(depending on resin type and thickness). There, EcoPure begins its work. It allows microbes to break down those “synthetic” polymer chains into organic monomers that they can feast on. It does this by expanding the molecular structure of the plastic, scissoring the polymer chain, and adding in nutrients that attracts the microbes to colonize in and around the plastic.
