Iran-Made Biodegradable Composite Film Reduces Use of Oil Resources
“This product is completely biodegradable with specifications like plastic but it is completely dissolved and destroyed in water for about half an hour and in soil for three to six months and it removes the environmental problems caused by plastic and plastic waste,” Melina Sadat Aqili Moqaddam, an inventor from Islamic Azad University’s Khorassan Razavi branch, told ANA on the sidelines of ‘Asreh Omid Event'.
“The compounds existing in this film are environmental-friendly and resistant to microorganisms, and it improves the health level and reduces the use of oil resources,” she explained.
Environment friendly processes, or environmental-friendly processes (also referred to as eco-friendly, nature-friendly, and green), are sustainability and marketing terms referring to goods and services, laws, guidelines and policies that claim reduced, minimal, or no harm upon ecosystems or the environment.
Aqili Moqaddam also added that the composite film has been produced based on the indigenous polymer of Iran.
