As is well known, oil is a rare and non renewable resource, and the imbalance in oil resource reserves among countries and the predatory exploitation of it by developed regions have become important factors causing instability in the world situation. Therefore, developing biodegradable materials and reducing the consumption of petrochemical resources has gradually become a consensus among countries around the world, especially developed regions. In recent years, the development of related technologies has been very rapid, with more and more bioplastics appearing in the packaging field. The rapid development of industry has greatly improved people's living standards, but at the same time, it has also caused serious environmental problems. For packaging, accelerating the development and application of energy-saving and environmental protection technologies and materials is imperative. Biodegradable plastics, as environmentally friendly plastic products, are becoming a global research and development hotspot and also harboring huge business opportunities.
Packaging materials are mostly disposable products with a short lifespan. In order to reduce the impact of packaging waste (commonly known as "white pollution") on the environment, the reduction and treatment of waste has become one of the development directions of plastic packaging. In the process of reduction, biodegradable materials play a leading role. Weng Yunxuan, Secretary General of the National Technical Committee for Standardization of Biobased Materials and Degradable Products, stated that with the increasingly severe environmental issues, the application of biodegradable materials in packaging has received more and more praise. In recent years, the demand for biodegradable materials in developed regions such as Europe and America has maintained a rapid growth.
