shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill, but its basic components are used as fertilizer (肥料), and so will enrich the soil. shrilk has great potential, the inventors said. materials from which it is made are plentiful in nature, found in everything ranging from shrimp shells, insect bodies to living plants. that makes shrilk lowcost, and its mass production possible should it be used for products demanding a lot of material. work on shrilk is continuing in the lab. the inventors said the material becomes flexible when wet, so theyre exploring ways to use it in wet environments. theyre also developing simpler production processes, which could be used for nonmedical products，like for computer cases and other products inside the home. theyre even exploring combining it with other materials，like carbon fibers, to give it new properties. 66. paragraph 1 of the passage is mainly about shrilks _. aremarkable design binteresting name cmajor features dbasic elements67. what has become a concern about plastic?
