The length and time for oxo-biodegradable plastic can be programmed at the time of manufacture and can be little as a few months or as much as few years. The process of degradation of oxo-biodegradable plastics starts immediately after manufacture and will accelerate when exposed to heat, light or stress. This process continuous even if the plastic is buried.
Even, if Oxo-biodegradable plastics were eaten by the cow, deer, turtle or other animal whilst still intact. The temperature and bacteria present in the gut would further accelerate the degradation process. Unlike conventional bags causing a blockage, which could kill the animal. Ingested oxo-biodegradable plastic would not adversely affect the milk, meat.
The best part of this technology is that, you don't have to change any of your machinery OR the system to manufacture the same.
