Cardia Biohybrid™ H-F

Cardia Biohybrid ™ H-F is a based on a blend of thermoplastic starch (TPS) with Polyethylene. This grade of resin is compatibilised to offer a high level of mechanical strength, elongation properties and toughness. The resin is based on corn starch which is a renewable material.

• A Biohybrid resin for film applications offering a significant reduction in carbon footprint (compared to PE)

• An effective contribution to sustainability where biodegradability/compostability is not required.

• Designed for thin and thick gauge film applications.

Cardia Biohybrid™ H-F is formulated with 50% of annually renewable thermoplastic starch polymer. This resin is suitable for a range of products manufactured by blown film extrusion and extrusion blow molding as well as injection molding processes. Due its high content of polyolefins the material is not a fully biodegradable polymer and is not intended for ultimate disposal in commercial composting facilities. For applications in which compostability is required we recommend the usage of Cardia Compostable B-F resin.
