BioPBS™ FD92PM/PB
BioPBS™ FD92PM/PB is bio-based polybutylene succinate adipate (PBSA) produced from polymerization of bio-based succinic acid, 1,4-butanediol and adipic acid. Alike LDPE, BioPBS™ is soft and flexible semi-crystalline polyester with excellent properties suitable for both blown and cast film extrusion.

- Storage Condition
BioPBS™ pellet is dried and packed in aluminum-lined packaging before delivering to customers. Do not store outdoors. Keep dry at ambient temperature. Avoid humid environment, heat and direct sunlight. Use material within 6 months after delivery date, in order to prevent possible material quality deterioration. Pre-dry of the unopened BioPBS™ is not necessary. It is recommended to keep packages sealed until ready to process and using up the whole 25-kg bag. Unused material should be tightly sealed, kept away from open air, and pre-dried (Temperature 60°C for over 5 hours) to moisture content of less than 1,000 ppm (preferable less than 700 ppm) prior to using next time.
