New and Safe Plastic

Japanese scientists have invented a new type of plastic that can biodegrade on its own. This plastic dissolves completely in ocean and sea water within 8.5 hours, leaving behind no micro-particles. Researchers have confirmed that the complete decomposition of this material causes no harm to the environment. At the same time, the new product maintains strength and transparency similar to conventional plastics. Experts say the adoption of this technology in production could play a major role in preventing ocean pollution and protecting the environment.
