Plastic is a familiar component of modern living, used in all sorts of packaging and household and commercial applications. Whilst the benefits of low cost, light weight, strength, imperviousness to gas and water, transparency, sealability, and printability are highly regarded, the very strength and durability which makes plastic such a useful and economic material can be a major problem when disposal is required. Plastic waste can accumulate in the environment for decades. 

Science has now found the solution to this problem: Oxo-biodegradable plastic.

The Oxo-biodegradable Plastics Association is a member of ASTM International
