The invention belongs to the technical field of 
processing of degradable plastic bags, and particularly relates to a 
processing method of a low-cost degradable 
plastic bag. The 
processing method comprises steps of 
raw material preparation, preparation of a sweet 
potato processing material, preparation of a fused material and preparation of a mother material and a plastic thin film. Compared with the prior art, the processing method has the following advantages that sweet potatoes serve as one of the main raw materials, and are processed with a 
urea solution, carboxyl-terminated 
polyamide and acationic initiator under a high temperature 
microwave condition, the molecular 
mass of the reactants can be effectively improved, the softness and the 
toughness of sweet potato 
fiber are enhanced, meanwhile, the 
chemical state of the surface of the sweet potato 
fiber can be effectively changed, and fusion with other raw materials is facilitated; the raw materials cooperate with one another effectively, the obtained 
plastic bag master batch has the 
photosensitivity and 
biodegradation characteristics, the prepared 
plastic bag has good stretching strength is good, the anti-tear property is good,the load-bearing force is large, the plastic bag can be repeatedly used, the degradation speed under a light condition is high, and the plastic bag can be applied and popularized.
