Samyang's strategy is to replace general biodegradable plastics including PBAT with the excellent performance and high eco-friendliness of PBIAT
Compared with traditional chemical materials, the use of PBIAT tape adhesives is expected to help reduce carbon emissions
In addition, PBIAT can enter the EU market by meeting EU regulatory requirements for biodegradable plastics
The relevant person in charge of Samyang Company stated: “Based on the biomass material isosorbide, we plan to combine Samyang’s organic synthesis technology and polymerization technology to continue to develop high-performance environmentally friendly materials that overcome the shortcomings of existing biodegradable plastics
Samyang has broken through the commercial production technology of isosorbide and built an isosorbide plant with an annual production capacity of approximately 10,000 tons on the site of its subsidiary Samyang Innochem
