Abstract
A handle for razor is made of polylactic acid (PLA) and another bioplastic polymer such as polybutylene adipate terephtalate (PBAT), bio-polyethylene (bio-PE), and polybutylene succinate (PBS), combined with mineral fillers selected from the group of calcium carbonate and shells of shellfish, such as oyster shells or scallop shells.
Claims18
A handle for a razor that is made of a composition comprising:
- a) from 60 to 95% by weight of a mixture of polylactic acid (PLA) and bio-polyethylene (bio-PE), wherein the weight ratio polylactic acid/bio-polyethylene polymer ranges from 60/40 to 90/10, and
- b) from 5 to 40% by weight of vegetable fillers selected from the group consisting of wood, wheat, flax, and seagrass, and any mixtures thereof, the weight % being relative to the total weight of the handle for razor.
