BASF ecovio® T2308 PLA
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polylactic Acid (PLA) Biopolymer
Material Notes:	Product Description: ecovia® T 2308 is a biodegradable film product containing renewable resources. It is basically a compound of our biodegradable copolyester ecoflex® and polylactic acid (PLA). Because of the PLA content ecovio® T 2308 consists of 80% of renewable resources. PLA is the continuous phase in the structure of ecovio® T 2308 transferring the beneficial properties of ecoflex® into the new product. Availability: Europe; North America Features: Biodegradable; Compostable; Food Contact Acceptable; Good Printability; Good Processability; Good Thermal Stability; High Melt Strength; High Stiffness; High Strength; Renewable Resource Content; Semi Crystalline Use: Film; Packaging; Sheet Agency Ratings: ASTM D6400; DIN EN 13432 EC 1907/2006 (REACH); EU 2002/72/EC; FDA FCN 178: FDA FCN 475; FDA FCN 907 RoSH Compliance: RoSH Compliant Appearance: Opaque Form: Pellets Processing Method: Sheet Extrusion Information provided by BASF Corporation
