The waste shells of organisms are processed into chitin powder and combined with plastic as a filler while adding antibacterial functionality. This material contains 30% chitin mixed with polypropylene plastic (PP) and can undergo processes such as extruding or vacuum forming to manufacture food containers. The inclusion of chitin improves the product’s antibacterial properties and can reduce bacteria in food containers to improve freshness. When discarded, this material can be processed through the plastic PP recycling system. more
