Abstract
Disposable items made from bioplastic resins include a biodegradable resin selected from the group consisting of polylactic acid (PLA), cellulose based PH, polycaprolate (PCL), polybutyleneadipatetetephathalate (PBT), polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), green polyethylene (GPE), green polyethylene terephthalate (GPET), poly-D-lactide (PDLA), and poly-L-lactide (PLLA); a plasticizer intermixed with the resin to provide a generally homogenous bioplastic; and a device formed from the bioplastic, where the device is at least one of a multidose syringe, a sharps container, or a suction canister. Embodiments include green indicators.
Claims13
A disposable device comprising:
- a biodegradable resin selected from the group consisting of polylactic acid (PLA), cellulose based PH, polycaprolate (PCL), polybutyleneadipatetetephathalate (PBT), polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), green polyethylene (GPE), green polyethylene terephthalate (GPET), poly-D-lactide (PDLA), and poly-L-lactide (PLLA);
- a plasticizer intermixed with the resin to provide a generally homogenous bioplastic;
- and
- a device formed from the bioplastic, where the device is at least one of a multidose syringe, a sharps container, or a suction canister.
A syringe system comprising:
- a biodegradable resin that includes poly-D-lactide (PDLA) or poly-L-lactide (PLLA), and is substantially free from non-compostable material;
- a plasticizer intermixed with the resin to provide a generally homogenous and compostable bioplastic;
- a syringe that is formed from the bioplastic;
- and
- a green indicator on the syringe that indicates the syringe is substantially compostable.
