A fully compostable container is provided having an enclosed body with an opening through an interior surface and an exterior surface. The enclosed body having a plant fiber structural layer configured to biodegrade in ambient conditions into nontoxic residue and a fluid barrier layer formed on a first side of the structural layer to form the interior surface of the enclosed body, the fluid barrier layer configured to biodegrade in ambient conditions into nontoxic residue. The container is gradually biodegradable when exposed to a set of factors in a natural environment and has a shelf life of six months when stored under standard commercial conditions.

The present invention provides a biodegradable resin having an intrinsic viscosity of 1.0 dL/g or more, and having a loss rate of intrinsic viscosity of 10% or more after treatment at 70° C. and 85% RH for 6 hr. The present invention also provides a biodegradable resin containing 70 wt% or more of polylactic acid and having a relative biodegradation rate up to 90% or more within 12 months when the degradability in home composting at 28° C. is evaluated according to the conditions specified in ASTM D5338-15. The biodegradable resin has the characteristics of fast biodegradation speed and stable storage, has good mechanical properties, optical properties and barrier properties, can be applicable to various aspects including packaging and express transportation, and will quickly biodegrade into carbon dioxide, water and other small molecules without contamination to the environment at the end of service life. The present invention also provides a biodegradable resin film using the biodegradable resin and a product thereof, and a multilayer film containing the biodegradable resin film and a product thereof.

A paper SAM pack with SAM inside and without refrigerant fluid inside, wherein an envelope of the paper SAM pack includes a paper component. A cold pack cooling system including an entrance for accepting refrigerant packs into the system, a conveyor for moving the refrigerant through the system, and a selector for selecting whether to send a cold pack which has passed through the system back to the entrance. An accumulator for cold packs in a cold pack cooling system wherein the accumulator is configured to sense when the accumulator is full of cold packs. Related apparatus and methods are also described.
