4.1 When discarded as litter, articles made using photodegradable plastics are subject to attack by daylight (particularly solar-ultraviolet radiation), oxygen, heat, and water. The 5° exposure angle used in this practice represents typical conditions for degradation experienced by litter.
4.2 This practice requires characterization of the duration of exposure in terms of solar-ultraviolet radiation. Solar-ultraviolet radiation varies considerably as a function of location and time of year. This can cause dramatic differences in the time required to produce a specified level of degradation in a polymer. Daro4 has shown that when the same lot of polyethylene containing an iron-salt prodegradant is exposed at various times of the year in a single location, the time required to produce an average of two chain scissions per molecule varied by over 1308201;%. Daro, and Zerlaut and Anderson5 have shown that this variability can be significantly reduced when total solar or solar-ultraviolet radiation, or both, is used to characterize the exposure increments.
4.3 In addition to variations in level of daylight and solar-ultraviolet radiation, there are significant differences in temperature, and moisture stresses between different locations, and between different years, or periods within a single year, at a single location. Because of this variability, results from this test cannot be used to predict the absolute rate at which photodegradable plastics degrade. Results from this test can be used to compare relative rates of degradation for materials exposed at the same time in the same location. Results from multiple exposures of a common lot of material (during different seasons over several years) at different sites can be used to compare the relative rates at which a particular photodegradable plastic will degrade in each location.
4.4 Where measurement of total solar-ultraviolet radiation is not possible, exposure duration can be determined by the number of days, weeks, or months exposed. When this practice is used, a reference material whose degradation properties have been well established must be exposed at the same time as the other materials being tested. The reference material used must be agreed upon by all interested parties. The time to produce a specified level of degradation for each material in this simultaneous exposure is then compared. It is also a good practice to use reference materials when exposure length is determined by total solar or solar UV radiant exposure.
我国国家发改委、生态环境部于2020年1月,发布《关于进一步加强塑料污染治理的意见》,制定了传统塑料禁止、限制使用的时间表,并要求8月出台省级实施方案,到2020年底,率先在部分地区、部分领域禁止、限制不可降解塑料制品的生产、销售和使用。这个改革对塑料行业影响巨大,也加快推进了对可降解塑料的应用。...
我国今年6月1日正式实施的两项推荐性国家标准政策,《生物降解塑料与制品降解性能及标识要求》和《生物降解饮用吸管》,对可降解塑料制品的生产与销售提供了行业国家标准,这也意味着可降解塑料已经成为了行业中不可或缺的力量。 产品检测护航企业发展可降解塑料成为有望成为下一个千亿蓝海,而想在其中抢占先机,获得崭露头角,拥有质量过关的产品是一切的根本。...
