THE FUTURE OF SUSTAINABILITY: CORNNEXT-17 A GAME-CHANGING BIO-BASED MATERIAL
Irvine, CA. January 10, 2025 – Corn Next has announced the launch of the CornNext-17 White Paper, a detailed report highlighting the revolutionary features of this innovative material, its potential to replace traditional plastics, and its role in supporting global sustainability initiatives.
CornNext-17 is not just another plastic alternative; it is a groundbreaking bio-based material derived from renewable corn starch through a patented fermentation process. What sets it apart is its unique ability to decompose naturally within 30 days, leaving no harmful residues behind. Unlike traditional plastics or bio-plastics such as PLA and PHA, CornNext-17 retains its natural polysaccharide structure, offering a combination of rapid biodegradability and exceptional mechanical performance.
“CornNext-17 represents a significant leap forward in sustainable materials,” said Randy Yongzhong Zhang, Founder and CEO of Corn Next. “We are proud to offer a solution that addresses the urgent need for environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional plastics. The development of CornNext-17 is guided by our vision to revolutionize how materials are used and discarded. As a fully natural, biodegradable innovation, it marks not just a breakthrough in material science but a significant milestone in humanity’s pursuit of a greener, more sustainable future.”
What makes CornNext-17 truly remarkable are its unique characteristics:
Fully Biodegradable: Naturally decomposes within 30 days without requiring special facilities or leaving harmful residues.
Eco-Friendly: Made from renewable resources, free from harmful chemicals, and entirely natural.
Versatile Applications: Suitable for transformative solutions across industries, including packaging, consumer goods, agriculture, healthcare, automotive, and electronics.
Cost-Effective Production: Manufactured through an efficient process that ensures competitive pricing while maintaining high quality.
High Performance: Offers excellent strength, flexibility, and heat resistance, making it a reliable choice for diverse applications.
Plastic waste remains one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time, with over 400 million tons of plastic produced annually and only a small percentage recycled. CornNext-17 provides a sustainable alternative to traditional plastics with its unique composition and rapid biodegradability. By reducing reliance on petrochemical-based plastics, CornNext-17 paves the way for a cleaner, healthier planet.
Corn Next is committed to advancing the applications of CornNext-17 through ongoing research and development. The company is actively seeking partnerships with industry leaders, investors, and government agencies to drive the widespread adoption of this groundbreaking material. Together, we can accelerate the global shift toward sustainability.
