dc.description.abstractThe main aim of the present study was to determine the behavior of the specimens from Ecovio, in the form of dumbbell-shaped samples and films, during degradation in selected cosmetic ingredients such as water and paraffin. The (bio)degradation test of the prototype cosmetic package (sachet) made from a PBAT (poly[(1,4-butylene adipate)-co-(1,4-butylene terephthalate)]) and PLA (polylactide) blend was investigated under industrial composting conditions, and compared with the sample behavior during incubation in cosmetic media at 70 °C. During the degradation tests, the changes of the samples were evaluated using optical microscopy, 1H NMR (proton nuclear magnetic resonance) and GPC (gel permeation chromatography) techniques. The structures of the degradation products were investigated using ESI-MSn (mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization on positive and negative ions) analysis. The thermal properties of selected materials were determined by DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) and TGA (thermogravimetric analysis) analysis. It was concluded that the PBAT and PLA blend studied had a good stability during aging in cosmetic media, and could be recommended for long-shelf-life compostable packaging of cosmetics, especially with oily ingredients.
