Objectives
The aim of the Algriplast project is to develop new biodegradable plastic materials and finished products by valorizing by-products from agri-food production.
Work will focus in particular on the search for new functionalities that can be brought about by the use of these by-products and derivatives in plastics processing.
- Design of new bioplastic formulations from biomass or derivatives
- Development of new rigid, semi-rigid and flexible applications
- Controlling service life by modulating biodegradation kinetics
- Setting up industrial processes for prototype production
- Environmental impact assessment using life cycle analysis
Partners
- NaturePlast
