Answer:
No, aluminum is not biodegradable. However, its components candisintegrate. For a material to bebiodegradable, it must be able to be broken down or decomposed by microorganisms. Because of the fact that it takes so long for aluminum to degrade (hundreds of years), it cannot be technically classified asbiodegradable.

Explanation:
The can, ironically called Tin Can (even though it's not metallic) is made of Poly-Lactic Acid (PLA) – a starch material extracted from corn. PLA has the same properties as petroleum plastic, but without the negative effects – it is biodegradable and becomes soil after 180 days in a compost system.
