EPIs Totally Degradable Plastic Additive (TDPA) works by breaking down polyethylene bags that are normally water-resistant or hydrophobic into a water-absorbing hydrophilic form. As a result of this chemical process, TDPA biodegradable bags can then be broken down in the same way micro-organisms would break down normal degradable waste-into Carbon Dioxide (CO2), water and non-toxic bio-mass.
