Hot Water Soluble

HydropolTM  is hydrophilic (water liking) and has no propensity to attract toxins or form microplastics and has been certified to be non-toxic to marine fauna. Solubility temperatures from 700C onwards

Warm Water Soluble

HydropolTM  is a hydrophilic material and can breakdown due to the reaction with water. Solubility temperature from 350C onwards

Compostable

HydropolTM  is inherently biodegradable, when given the right balance of environment and microbial presence it will biodegrade to carbon dioxide, water and mineralised biomass.

Biogradable

HydropolTM will disintegrate and completely biodegrade over time in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions

Recyclable

Through use of a closed-loop system, the polymer can be recovered from the PVOH via a simple chemical process and re-pelletized ready for reuse.

High Strength

A highly flexible polymer which is approximately 3-4 times stronger than bio plastics/polyethene and 2 times stronger than HDPE of same gauge.

Marine Safe

HydropolTM  is hydrophilic (water liking) and has no propensity to attract toxins or form micro plastics and has been certified to be non-toxic to marine fauna.

Non-Toxic

HydropolTM  is benign in the environment and non-toxic to marine life, so if recovery for recycling is not required the dissolved polymer can be washed away safely with wastewater.

Heat Sealable

HydropolTM  can be heat sealed using standard heat sealing processes.

Electrostatic Resistant

HydropolTM  is designed to naturally dissipate electrostatic energy

Anaerobic Digestion

Unlike most plastics, HydropolTM is compatible in AD systems. Tests show that a 30 micron thick film passed the AD system and post analysis showed no fragments in the biodigestate or residence in the digester

Ultra-Violet Resistant

HydropolTM  is naturally resistant to UV light

Stable

As HydropolTM has been formulated into a standard plastic pellet, it stable in normal storage conditions
