| Mazda signs bioplastics research agreement with Hiroshima University |
|
Mazda Motor has signed a collaborative research agreement with Hiroshima University to launch the Mazda Bioplastic Project.
The project's aim is to develop a bioplastic from non-food-based
cellulosic biomass and have it ready for use in vehicles by 2013. The
project will focus on designing a production process for an extremely
versatile polypropylene, appropriate for extensive use in vehicles, by
first converting cellulosic biomass to ethanol, and then investigating
various mixtures of ethylene and propylene. Bookmark this page!      |
