Abstract

La présente invention concerne un substrat couché par extrusion compostable à domicile qui comprend un substrat en carton ayant au moins un premier côté et une couche d'un revêtement par extrusion appliqué sur au moins une partie du premier côté. Ce revêtement par extrusion est constitué d'environ 30 à environ 99,5 pour cent en poids d'au moins un poly(hydroxyalcanoate), et d'environ 5 pour cent en poids à environ 69,5 pour cent en poids d'au moins un polymère compostable qui est choisi parmi le groupe constitué de l'acide polylactique, du poly(caprolactone), du polyéthylène sébicate, du poly(butylène succinate), du poly(butylène succinate-co-adipate), du poly(butylène adipate téréphtalate) et de leurs mélanges. De préférence, conformément à la présente invention, il est également préférable que le substrat couché par extrusion soit compostable à domicile, tel qu'établi par la norme ASTM D6868.
