The BIOnTop project has come to the end of the first of the in total four years which this project will span.

Set up in order to develop new, competitive, low-cost, recyclable packaging solutions designed to be mechanically recycled, compostable either industrially or at home, or suitable for anaerobic digestion, the initial results look promising.

The project is being led by Valencia-based plastics technology centre AIMPLAS. It is funded through the “Bio-Based Industries Joint Undertaking” within the EU Research and Innovation programme Horizon 2020 under grant agreement 837761, in which, next to AIMPLAS, 20 partners are taking part.

The first year saw experimental work being conducted by the partners to the project on copolymers and compounds with customized biodegradability, as well as multifunctional coating solutions with customized properties.

Another achievement task was defining the specifications for PLA-based products with customized end of life and properties. Two technical deliverables and one scientific paper have been published with these initial project results.

The first deliverable is an extensive review of the state of the art, including scientific papers, patents and commercial information on biodegradable household packaging and textiles.

The information in this deliverable was consulted to write the paper Bio-Based Packaging: Materials, Modifications, Industrial Applications and Sustainability, published in the international scientific journal Polymers (ISSN 2073-4360).

The second deliverable consists of a compilation of information on commercial biopolymers, additives and monomers, including suppliers and prices, in order to select the source materials to be used to start working with the laboratory scale-up formulation in upcoming project activities.

All three documents are accessible through the project website (www.biontop.eu). The paper is also available on the journal website https://bit.ly/2XhaS19.
