Yangtian's YT-Bio series, with corn starch-based polylactic acid as its core, can be completely degraded within 3 years. It balances environmental protection and performance, and is suitable for food, pharmaceutical and outdoor equipment.
1.Industry Background: Environmental Challenges in Machinery Manufacturing
Traditional pneumatic sleeves mostly use petroleum-based rubber/plastics, which are difficult to degrade after disposal. Both the EU's REACH regulations and China's "dual-carbon" policies have imposed environmental requirements on mechanical components.
Yangtian Machinery's Breakthrough: YT-Bio Series Bio-based Sleeves
2.Raw Materials: 60% derived from polylactic acid (PLA) made from corn starch, with 40% modified rubber for reinforcement.
Degradability: Fully degradable within 3 years under industrial composting conditions, with no microplastic residues.
Mechanical Properties: Passed ISO 14040 life cycle assessment; tensile strength reaches 80% of traditional products, meeting the needs of light-load scenarios.
