Why Polylactic Acid Tow
Complete Customize Solution
Biodegradability
BMC® PLA Tow is made from biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) fibers. Compared to traditional synthetic fibers, it has better decomposition properties in the environment, reducing its impact on the environment.
Renewable resources
BMC® PLA Tow is derived from renewable plant resources such as corn starch. It has a lower carbon footprint and environmental impact compared to petroleum-based fibers.
Excellent filtration performance
BMC® PLA Tow have high porosity and surface area, effectively capturing and adsorbing harmful substances and particles in tobacco smoke. It helps reduce the levels of tar, nicotine, and other harmful substances in tobacco smoke.
Odorless and low volatility
BMC® PLA Tow is free from harmful chemicals or volatile substances, unlike traditional synthetic fibers. This allows it to avoid releasing unpleasant odors and provide a purer and fresher smoking experience. Additionally, PLA Tow emits fewer gases during use due to its low volatility and stability, which reduces adverse impacts on air quality and potential risks to human health and the environment.
High customization
BMC® PLA Tow can be customized for different characteristics of cigarette filters by adjusting parameters such as fiber density, length, and diameter. This includes regulating the resistance, adsorption performance, and smoke purification effect of the filter. This tunability allows PLA Tow to meet the specific requirements of different smokers in terms of filter performance.
Excellent Strength and Durability
BMC® PLA Tow’s excellent strength and durability stem from its molecular structure and processing techniques. It possesses high crystallinity and strong intermolecular bonding, allowing for effective stress transfer and load dispersion. Special processing techniques such as stretching and thermal setting further enhance its performance.As a result, BMC® PLA Tow exhibits high tensile strength, wear resistance, and long-term stability.
