  • So then what can it be used for, other than being decomposed? Doesn’t almost all food contain salt, and human sweat as well? It’s not really useful on earth then, is it? Maybe for unmanned spacecrafts?

    Well, the dream material would be some that is stable during use and then immediately falls apart when disposed. But that’s not how things usually work, so anything that decomposes fairly quickly cannot be used to store food for example, as it would just mix with the food. And anything that is stable enough to store food does not decompose in a hundred years or so.
