Mango peels can be used to make plastic substitutes that degrade in 6 months

According to the “Mexico City Times” report, Mexico recently successfully developed a plastic substitute made from mango peels. According to the report, Mexico is a “mango country” and throws away hundreds of thousands of tons of mango peels every day, which is time-consuming and laborious to process.

Scientists accidentally discovered that the toughness of mango peel is very valuable for development, so they added starch and other chemical materials to the peel to develop a “mango peel synthetic product” that can replace plastic.

The toughness and hardness of this material are similar to those of plastic. The most important thing is that it is cheap and recyclable, and it can reduce environmental pollution while using waste.
