VERFAHREN ZUR HERSTELLUNG VON GEGENSTÄNDEN AUS ESSBAREM ODER BIOLOGISCH LEICHT ABBAUBAREM MATERIAL

摘要

Articles made of edible or easily biodegradable materials are manufactured by mixing at least one animal protein product and starch-containing cereal or vegetable material and, if required, auxiliary substances to form a mass of viscous to dough-like consistency. The mass obtained is extruded with addition of water to form an essentially plastically deformable material which is brought into the desired form by injection moulding. The process can be used to manufacture articles such as disposable dishes and cutlery for the home and catering, packages or casings.
