Procedure

Examples of the polybutylene succinate (PBS) type aliphatic polyester include polybutylene succinate (PBS) made from butanediol and succinic acid, an adipate copolymer (PBSA) obtained by copolymerizing adipic acid to accelerate biodegradability, and adipate/terephthalate copolymer obtained by copolymerizing terephthalic acid. The commercially available products include “BIONOLLE (trade name)”, “ENPOL (trade name)”, “ECOFLEX (trade name)” and “BIOMAX (trade name)” available from Showa High polymer, Ltd., Ire Chemical, Ltd., BASF AG, and Du Pont, Ltd., respectively.
