In the face of increasingly prominent environmental problems, self-degradable daily necessities have attracted the attention of many people, including disposable tableware made of paper, wood, straw, corn starch, and degradable plastics. It is found that the use of disposable chopsticks and other wooden tableware is restricted due to the waste of resources, while other degradable tableware has not been popularized at present. Instead, crystal tableware has been promoted with a high recycling value. Let’s analyze it together below. Current status and prospects of biodegradable tableware.

Experts suggest that degradable tableware can be identified through several methods of "one look, two smells, and three tears":

When you look at it, first of all, it depends on whether there is a QS logo and number on the lunch box; secondly, it depends on whether the surface of the lunch box is smooth, whether there are impurities or black spots. Generally speaking, transparent plastic lunch boxes are made of pure polypropylene (PP), which has a relatively high safety factor; brightly colored lunch boxes may use waste plastics, so the darker the color, the less safe it is.

The second touch is to feel the strength of the lunch box. The lunch box produced by using recycled waste or adding a large amount of industrial grade calcium carbonate and talcum powder is generally poor in strength and will break if you tear it lightly.

The third smell is to smell whether there is any peculiar smell in the lunch box, and the qualified lunch box cannot smell the smell.

The characteristics of the "black lunch box" can be summed up in six jingles: the hand is soft, the light tear is broken, the smell is pungent, the smell is easy to leak, the hand is folded, there is paraffin mark, the tear is broken and the water sinks . As long as you remember the jingle above, you can easily tell whether the disposable lunch box is qualified.
