Self-destroying plastics can be used in automotive and packaging industries

A small plastics processing company in Switzerland developed a chemically self-destructive plastic. This kind of chemical self-destruction plastic is sprayed on the plastic product with a special formula solution, which causes chemical reaction with the plastic, and gradually dissolves the plastic, becomes a harmless substance that can be washed away by water, and no longer pollutes the environment.

The use of this new type of plastic can replace the wax-based protective coating used when the new car is shipped. The liquid plastic liquid added with the white pigment is uniformly sprayed on the shell of the car, and even if the formed white plastic film encounters water shower, it will not cause the car to be eroded due to the leakage. Once shipped to the resident, spray water with a special chemical reagent. After a few minutes, the white plastic film will fall off on its own, exposing the true color of the car.

Its other use is to make composite plastic films. After the composite film is formed into a package for food or other articles, once the package is torn, the inner layer coated with the special agent absorbs moisture in the air and reacts with the polymer having a reactive group, and the film will resemble Perforated and slowly decomposed. This type of plastic is also used extensively to make toilet seat cushions that are not afraid of water when used, but are easily decomposed by water when discarded.
