Anhui Tianyi<br />
Anhui Tianyi Environmental Protection Tech. Co., Ltd is a<br />
science and technology innovation enterprise focusing on<br />
eco-friendly plasticizers and biodiesel. The offices are located<br />
in Hangzhou, China. The eco-friendly plasticizers for different<br />
PVC products (film, cable compounds, artificial leather, gloves<br />
and foams) are based on epoxidized soybean oil. Epoxidized<br />
soybean oil is a PVC plasticizer and<br />
stabilizer with good heat resistance<br />
and flexibility. As the substitution of<br />
phthalates plasticizers it has a great<br />
significance for the aging resistance<br />
and stabilization of PVC products.<br />
Another big field of business of this<br />
company is biodiesel (fatty acid<br />
methyl ester), made from<br />
vegetable oils, animal fats<br />
and greases.<br />

Jinan Shengquan Group (SQ)<br />
Jinan Shengquan Group Share-Holding Co.,Ltd (SQ) is a<br />
high-tech enterprise which focuses on the comprehensive<br />
utilization of biomass and new composite materials. Through<br />
30 years of innovation, SQ has commercially used all three<br />
major components of biomass (hemicellulose, cellulose, and<br />
lignin). The company is the world’s largest foundry–material<br />
supplier and the largest phenolic resin supplier in Asia.<br />
The company is proud to offer high–performance<br />
biodegradable plastics. According to the company lignin is an<br />
essential ingredient for compost. When it breaks down it turns<br />
into humus or topsoil. While other compostable bags such as<br />
those containing starch are designed to only turn into carbon<br />
dioxide and water, biodegradable bags of lignin are the only<br />
compostable bags that contribute to the quality of compost. In<br />
addition, since the raw material, lignin, is from plant straw it<br />
is also renewable and thus a co-friendly.<br />
Modified lignin thermoplastic (SQLM-01A) is a brown<br />
powder that has been tested and certified to be over 96%<br />
biobased. SQLM-01A blended with PBAT can provide a film<br />
resin that is both strong and compostable. It can be used for<br />
compostable flexible films, such as trash bags, pet waste<br />
bags, agricultural films, packaging bags and shopping bags.<br />
Blended with conventional plastics such as polypropylene<br />
SQLM-01A can increase the flexural modules or stiffness<br />
of the resulting resin. The field of applications for example<br />
automotive parts, shopping baskets or turnover boxes. Of<br />
course such blends are not biodegradable.<br />

conventional PLA grades (such as Revode 101, 110, 190, 201,<br />
210, 290) and modified PLA resins (such as Revode 213, 219C,<br />
711, etc.) as well as some PLA applications. Compared with<br />
traditional plastics, Revode offers a higher food contact safety, it<br />
is non-toxic and features unique high-temperature resistance<br />
properties. Thus it is an ideal material for food packaging,<br />
tableware,etc.. The products presented at Chinaplas include<br />
fiber products, disposable products, household articles and<br />
3D printing filaments.<br />

a biodegradable plastic material which the company claims<br />
to be certified according to EN 13432 or ASTM D6400. The<br />
company is offering three main grades: for injection molding<br />
heat resistant and non-heat resistant grades for products<br />
such as cutlery, pregnancy test kits, electrical plugs, cuplids,<br />
telephone cases etc.. A special grade for film blowing<br />
and bottle blow molding can be used to produce various types<br />
of packaging, garbage bags, or cosmetic bottles. The third<br />
grade is for sheet extrusion and thermoforming. Potential<br />
applications are file folders, blister packaging, plates etc..<br />
