Claim: 1-9. (canceled)
Claim: 10. A substrate for storage media comprising: a resin substrate containing a starch resin; and a resin layer formed on the resin substrate, wherein, after being left for a predetermined time, a compound having a carbonyl group is precipitated on a surface of the resin substrate.
Claim: 11. The substrate for storage media according to claim 10, wherein the resin substrate contains: glycerin in an amount of 2% by mass or more; methyl lactate in an amount of 0.02% by mass or less; and methoxyethyl acetate in an amount of 0.08% by mass or less.
Claim: 12. The substrate for storage media according to claim 10, wherein, in manufacturing of the resin substrate, the starch resin prepared by adding glycerin in an amount of 11% by mass or more is used.
Claim: 13. (canceled)
Claim: 14. A substrate for optical disk comprising: a resin substrate containing a starch resin; and a resin layer, formed on the resin substrate, having a recording pit or a recording guide groove on the surface, wherein, after being left for a predetermined time, a compound having a carbonyl group is precipitated on a surface of the resin substrate.
Claim: 15. The substrate for optical disk according to claim 14, wherein the resin substrate contains: glycerin in an amount of 2% by mass or more; methyl lactate in an amount of 0.02% by mass or less; and methoxyethyl acetate in an amount of 0.08% by mass or less.
Claim: 16. The substrate for optical disk according to claim 14, wherein, in manufacturing of the resin substrate, the starch resin prepared by adding glycerin in an amount of 11% by mass or more is used.
Claim: 17. A method for manufacturing a recycled resin substrate, the method comprising a peeling step, in which the recycled resin substrate is formed, by peeling off a recording layer and a resin layer of storage media comprising a resin substrate containing a starch resin, the resin layer formed on the resin substrate, and the recording layer formed on the resin layer.
