By inputting various property criteria for specific plastic products, the prediction model can automate the inverse design of all-natural substitutes to replace transparent badge holders, clear file folders, transparent shopping bags, translucent lamp shades, transparent air pillows, non-flammable battery packages and UV-blocking chemical packages. Top row photos show non-biodegradable plastic products and their property criteria. Bottom row photos show the biodegradable, all-natural substitutes suggested by the prediction model.
