Hello sir, we have often seen issues in dissolvable films in transit as they aren't able to sustain the transit hazards. Is there any way to prevent that to minimum? Thanks a lot

@GEOsustainable 2 года назад

This is not a commercially viable method. This is a hot summer day play time with mom and kids project. I will say this, the question you ask is the holy grail of bioplastics.

@TheHappyPianoTeacher 5 лет назад

Thanks for sharing! Going to try this for our soaps. Also, the cheapskate in me appreciates the water heater vs stove efficiency tip :)

@mary-jocunningham1290 5 лет назад

Can you add flavoring (like the flavoring used in hard candy or jello) to your edible packaging

@GEOsustainable 5 лет назад

Excellent question Mary-Jo. Yes, you can. However, Jello has a lot of glycerin in it, to keep it Jello, so avoid that. I would suggest you use simple sugar based flavors, as sugar is polar and will mix with water (polar) well. I caution against acid and oils as they are non polar, but I can not say for sure, so try a small batch. Any flavoring that is polar is a shoe in.

Indefinitely, or until humidity gets to it. Thank you so much.

@alexeygoncharov2964 5 лет назад

Thanks so much for sharing knowledge! Is there any other way to do bioplastic without gelatin? Because gelatin is product of dead cows and bones, so many people, like I am, do not want to eat that kind of plastic =) Thank you!

@GEOsustainable 5 лет назад

Yes, and thank you for your question. I cover your enquiry in detail in the video.

@gauravashq 4 года назад

Corn/Cassava/Tapioca/Rice/Potato/SugaCane.. there are myriad of options through which you can extract the starch and then use it with the same formula (Starch+water+glycerine+heat). People have also used sea-weeds for the same.

Oh, all of the sweets I can wrap with this :) Question: I've been experimenting on plastic film using gelatine and it's taking a couple of days to really dry and yours dries in just 24 hours. How can I dry them in as little time as possible? Thank you!

@GEOsustainable 4 года назад

So glad to hear. I'm not sure why yours takes longer. Perhaps it is how thick you pour? My recipe will work for you however.

@romabiancapilar9284 4 года назад

Dear Sir please do inform that is it able to manufacture any type of bioplastic in conventional non biodegradable plastic making machines ?

@GEOsustainable 5 лет назад

I am not able to answer your question with a degree of certainty without knowing more about the equipment specifications.

@gauravashq 4 года назад

Yes, Geetha it does. We are making it in India. There are different granules and we just need to change the temperature for making new bioplastics. If you have machines, I would like to work with you on this project in India.

@williamgrimberg4048 5 лет назад

Just opened a frozen pizza where the pizza company incloses the pizza in plastic bag and puts in their branded thin cardboard box . I was wondering if they could use this bio plastic in place of the plastic bag ?

@GEOsustainable 5 лет назад

Yes! They could. For now, there simply isn't anyone making bioplastic packaging film. It takes public demand, or until we run out of oil (which is not far off). Recycle that box, my friend.

@gauravashq 4 года назад

We will not endorse it in India as this one is made of Gelatin. We would prefer something made of Vegan Starch like Cassava/Corn/Tapioca/Rice/Potato/SugarCane etc.

@Resologist 2 года назад

Not a good idea to use glycerin from the hardware store. It's best to be certain that it is "food grade" and without any extra additives in it.

Absolutely!

Greetings sir, I want to recreate this simple experiment in my home, but im having trouble since I used sodium alginate. Would i follow the same exact measurements when using sodium alginate? like 7 grams of sodium alginate, 2 cups of water and 2 drops of glycerine? thank you

How can you make the bioplastic stronger?

@GEOsustainable 4 года назад

Bioplastic is what it is. For use as a one-use plastic in applications where strength and water proof is not required, which are many, would replace so much of plastic made from oil. The trick is to use it's inherent qualities, such as incredible oxygen barrier and other attributes.
