Mushroom plastic: It can replace polystyrene foam and polystyrene products, and is widely used in many fields. It is believed that mycelial mats have the potential to be a biofilter, removing chemicals and microorganisms from soil and water. The use of fungal mycelium to achieve this goal is known as mycelial filtration.
Advantages: Fungal packaging compared to traditional plastic, mushroom plastic is not only lower cost, but also can be fireproof and waterproof, and can decompose in about a month after reaching the use period of burial. Edible mycelium packaging material can be grown in a controlled environment within a week and degraded in a short time, the material has the same insulation and flame retardancy as polystyrene.
Applications: MycoWorks started to produce mycelium furniture, mycelium bricks, and mycelium leather, and Ecovative produced foam from mycelium (mushroom roots) and agricultural waste. It is expected to replace existing polystyrene-based plastics in packaging, construction, transportation, and other fields.
蘑菇塑料：它可以替代聚苯乙烯泡沫和聚苯乙烯制品，在许多领域得到广泛应用。有人认为，菌丝体垫可以作为生物过滤器，从土壤和水中去除化学物质和微生物。利用真菌菌丝体实现这一目标被称为菌丝过滤。
优势：与传统塑料相比，蘑菇塑料不仅成本更低，而且防火防水，使用期限结束后大约一个月可以分解掉。可食用的菌丝包装材料可以在控制环境中在一周内生长出来，并在短时间内降解，该材料具有与聚苯乙烯相同的隔热和阻燃性能。
应用：MycoWorks公司开始生产菌丝家具、菌丝砖和菌丝皮革，Ecovative公司则利用菌丝（蘑菇根）和农业废料生产泡沫。预计蘑菇塑料将取代现有的基于聚苯乙烯的包装、建筑、交通等领域的塑料制品。
