T/SHPTA 121-2025 Fully biodegradable rice specific plastic mulch
Basic Information
Scope
This document specifies the classification, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, and marking, packaging, transportation, and storage of fully biodegradable rice-specific mulch films used in rice/dry rice cultivation and production. This document applies to fully biodegradable rice-specific mulch films produced by the blow molding process, which are mainly composed of one or more resins from fully biodegradable polymers such as aliphatic polyesters, aliphatic-aromatic copolyester, carbon dioxide-epoxy resin copolymer, and other biodegradable polymers. The films may also contain a suitable proportion of biodegradable natural polymers such as starch, cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, bamboo-based polymers, and other environmentally harmless inorganic fillers and functional additives. This document does not apply to rice-specific mulch films containing non-biodegradable polymer components such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET).
