UNVEILING THE COMPOSITION OF BIOPLASTICS THROUGH CHN/O ELEMENTAL ANALYSIS

Bioplastics have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional petroleum-based plastics. Derived from renewable resources like plant starches or microbial fermentation, bioplastics offer the potential to reduce our dependence on finite fossil fuels.  

The chemical composition of bioplastics profoundly impacts their properties and performance in various applications. Consequently, thorough monitoring and analysis of their composition are essential to ensure adherence to stringent quality standards and regulatory requirements. 

By leveraging combustion analysis techniques, researchers and manufacturers can gain valuable insights into the elemental composition of bioplastics. This analysis not only provides a deeper understanding of the material's properties but also enables informed decision-making in product development and quality control processes.
