School of Materials Engineering, Suzhou University launches a new type of film

Water-soluble film, which is placed in ordinary cold water, disappeared in 50 seconds; use it to pack washing powder, you can directly into the washing machine without disassembly. This new film was successfully developed at the School of Materials Engineering of Soochow University.

From the aspect of appearance strength, this water-soluble packaging film is no different from ordinary plastic packaging film seen in people's daily life. However, when tearing off a small piece and pouring it into a normal cold water, the film quickly shrinks in the water and disappears in 50 seconds. The detergent powder thus packaged can be put into the washing machine without being unpacked, and it will be naturally dissolved in the washing process, which is very convenient, and the washing powder does not affect the quality of the laundry. Packaging film can be seen everywhere in daily life. The packaging of clothing, food, cosmetics, electrical appliances and other products can not be separated from it. However, when these films complete their mission, they are often discarded. Their non-degradable properties are The pollution caused by the environment has reached a startling level. At present, the technology of this kind of film has been quite mature. Its greatest feature is non-toxic, degradable, and easily soluble in water. It is a kind of environmentally friendly material with strong practicality and a broad market prospect.
