What is PAS 9017:2020 about? Plastic pollution and littering is a huge problem globally, for which to date biodegradability has not been a viable solution. However, that’s now partly changed with the development of a technique that allows polyolefins to degrade in the open air on land. To quickly disseminate this technology across the plastic packaging value chain, a coalition that included industry, government, and academic experts wrote PAS 9017:2020 . This document specifies the requirements that enable the biodegradability of polyolefins in an open-air terrestrial environment. Who is PAS 9017:2020 for?
Plastic or plastic technology manufacturers looking to make claims about the biodegradability of their polyolefin-based plastics in an open-air terrestrial environment Test houses looking to test conformance to the PAS (though note that certification is out of scope and a PAS cannot require the use of independent third-party certification for claims of conformance) Standards agencies, national laboratories, or academic research groups which could use the test method described in the PAS as a universal baseline methodology for evaluating the biodegradability of new material discoveries within plastics and polymer production
Why should you use PAS 9017:2020?
This PAS specifies requirements for the biodegradability of polyolefins in an open-air terrestrial environment. It covers:
Polyolefin composition targeted at biodegradability Degradation towards biodegradability from weathering, including: a) Criteria for the level of chemical transformation to be achieved by weathering in a simulated open-air terrestrial environment and appropriate test methods b) Method of chemical analysis to be used to yield quantifiable measurement of chemical transfor...
