"High-strength, multi-mode processable bamboo molecular bioplastic enabled by solvent-shaping regulation", Tang et al. 2025 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-63904-2
"The ubiquity of petrochemical plastics in modern society, evident in packaging, construction, and electronics, is underpinned by their low cost, durability, and processability. Since the 1950s, global plastic production has surged exponentially, with projections indicating a staggering output of 1.23 billion tons by 2060 (Fig. 1a). Yet, the environmental toll of this reliance is catastrophic: less than 10% of plastics are recycled, while the remainder accumulates in landfills and oceans, fragmenting into persistent microplastics that infiltrate ecosystems and food chains. This crisis underscores an urgent need for sustainable materials that reconcile industrial utility with environmental safety."
"we propose a solvent-mediated molecular engineering strategy to fabricate high-performance bamboo molecular plastics (BM-plastics) with tunable H-bond networks. [...] it is fully biodegradable in soil within 50 days and retain 90% of their mechanical properties after recycling."

PLA, or polylactic acid, is a biodegradable plastic made from renewable sources such as corn starch or sugar cane. PLA has many advantages over petroleum-based plastics, such as lower greenhouse gas emissions, higher biocompatibility, and better mechanical properties. However, PLA also has some drawbacks, such as high cost, low thermal stability, and slow degradation rate, which limit its applications and environmental benefits. #PLA #BiodegradablePlastic #GreenTech

Starch-based straws. Doesn't get soggy quickly like the paper straws.
On the left, probably cornstarch PLA. At an open air restaurant where the family are regulars for dinner. #bioplastic #BiodegradablePlastic
The purple straw in the picture on the right is made of #rice and completely edible, in my coffee from The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf.
