Making Sense of Plastic Biodegradability
The research in this article focuses on biodegradation—a fancy term for a process where plastic breaks down into smaller, non-toxic components that can be absorbed by nature. Think of it as giving plastic a timer: after it’s done serving its purpose, it starts to break down when exposed to light, heat, and air. This technology developed by P-Life Japan Inc. is added to the plastic, making it susceptible to breaking down naturally.

How P-Life is Turning the Tide?
P-Life’s additives make plastic behave responsibly. It lasts as long as needed for its intended use (whether it’s a package on a shelf or a protective barrier during transport) but will break down naturally once exposed to oxygen, light, and heat, finally transforming into harmless components like CO2 and H2O(water). Think of it as giving plastic a retirement plan.
