Since the 1970s, plastics and the environment have always been a concern of the industry, because it is related to the sustainable development of the industry. Plastic and environmental problems include a series of problems, such as the treatment of post consumption plastic in urban solid waste, the pollution of plastic agricultural film to farmland, the recycling of waste plastic, the foaming agent of foam plastic, the heavy metal in plastic additives, and the toxicity of raw materials.

Among them, the more intuitive and more concerned hot spot is the disposal of post consumer plastics in urban solid waste. The environmental pollution caused by a large number of disposable packaging products, such as plastic bags, tableware, etc., especially disposable polystyrene foamed lunch boxes, has not only aroused widespread concern in the society, but also led to the fate of banning the use by the end of 2000 after Zui.

This event correctly conveyed a message: the development of the plastic industry must consider environmental issues, that is, when developing a plastic product, it should take into account its post-processing of consumption. At present, disposable plastic packaging products are being developed and researched from the two aspects of utilization of degradable plastics and recycling. zui has finally made a breakthrough because of the development of engineering plastics.

Recently, due to the increasing number of plastic building materials and cars for discarded household appliances (refrigerators, washing machines, computers, copiers, video game machines, etc.

Now, in China, the term "white pollution" has become a well-known synonym for environmental pollution caused by disposable plastic products. To this end, all sectors of society, government departments and enterprises have paid attention to this problem, and experts in the industry have also made suggestions and efforts to eliminate the environmental pollution caused by plastics.
