Development of new biodegradable plastic formulations for the biomedical sector.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The PHASAL<\/strong> project develops different bioplastic formulations that introduce PHB-HV with different loads of hydroxyvalerate (-HV) from the revaluation of organic waste<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The objective is that these formulations, applicable to the health field, present advanced biodegradability and biocompatibility properties<\/strong> to minimize the environmental impact they present due to their poor recyclability.<\/p>\n

In this sense, PHASAL develops a complex rigid packaging system, such as a suture kit, and a direct medical application with controlled drug release, such as a transdermal patch.<\/p>\n

The new advanced formulations developed during the PHASAL project are aimed at improving mechanical properties<\/strong>, making polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) a material with good impact properties, extending useful life<\/strong> and controlling fluidity to facilitate its processability<\/strong>. The results obtained will allow extrapolation to other applications in different sectors in the future.<\/p>\n

The processes for obtaining the demonstrators allow us to validate that the material is suitable for use in transformation processes as diverse as electrospinning, compounding or injection molding.<\/p>\n

Likewise, these demonstrators will undergo accelerated aerobic biodegradability testing under controlled composting conditions, to validate product cycle closure and an environmentally responsible end-of-life.<\/p>\n

The PHASAL consortium is formed by VEnvirotech Biotechnology<\/a>, INTEPLAST<\/a>, Eurecat and the PSEP Research Group of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Eurecat participates through its Polymeric & composite processes<\/span><\/a>\u00a0unit, responsible for the characterization of materials, processability tests and formulation support; as well as the Waste, Energy and Environmental Impact (WEEI)<\/a> unit, which develops a methodology that allows the biodegradation of new materials to be determined in an accelerated manner.<\/p>\n<\/div>
