Abstract
A suspended nutrition composition includes a foamed material, a colloid layer and a nutrient.

The colloid layer covers a surface of the foamed material. The nutrient is dispersed in the foamed material.
Claims6
A manufacturing method of a suspended nutrition composition, comprising the following steps:
- mixing a starch, a biodegradable polyester, a plasticizer and a physical foaming agent together to form a first mixture;
- adding a nutrient to the first mixture to form a second mixture;
- performing a hot extrusion process so that the physical foaming agent produces bubbles to form at least a foamed material having a plurality of pores
- performing a coating process so that a colloid solution covers a surface of the foamed material;
- and
- performing a low temperature curing process to the foamed material covered by the colloid solution after performing the coating process.
