That's the whole point of the presentation. She's suggesting a basic polymer that's safe for food, biodegradable, and functional, as well as additives that also meet those parameters. She's suggesting that she's got a better option than the biodegradable (compostable) options currently on the market, but that it's still not as water-tight as your standard non-biodegradable plastic film which is currently is widespread use, so there's more work to be done to try and mimic PP or PET's performance.
