Unsaturated biobased polyesters from bicyclic α‐pinene‐based diols
Polymer International, EarlyView.We present the synthesis of four biosourced unsaturated polyesters made from chiral terpene‐based diols and esters of renewable diacids. The resulting materials harbor a bicyclic pinene ring in their backbones which leads to enhanced thermal properties while still conferring susceptibility to enzyme hydrolysis for chains having a cis alkene.

Roll‐to‐Roll Processing of Biodegradable Multilayer Barrier Packaging Structures
Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.This work demonstrates that novel packaging materials built using biobased and biodegradable materials can be produced in pilot‐scale and converted into functional barrier packaging. The proposed structures are anticipated to make a strong impact in use‐cases where the risk of environmental littering is elevated, such as snacks and take away meals ...

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 441-452, March 2025.Three poly(caprolactone) (PCL)‐based additives of differing molecular weights were used as a secondary plasticizer to prevent gas checks in PVC films produced through calendering. Results showed that chemical and physicochemical properties influence the prevention or reduction of gas checks, unlike rheological properties including complex viscosity and

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The microbial degradation of synthetic polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is mediated by diverse α/β‐hydrolases, many of which remain poorly characterized. In this study, we investigated the α/β‐hydrolase SM0281 from Sinorhizobium meliloti and found that it exhibits robust carboxylesterase and polyesterase activities toward PET, PCL ...

Green Sorptive Sampling Coupled With UHPLC–IMS–MS and GC×GC–TOFMS for Characterization of Migrating Substances From Plastic Food Contact Materials [PDF]
J Sep SciA green PDMS sorptive sampling loop coupled with complementary liquid and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry enabled detection of migrating chemicals from plastic food contact materials under everyday‐use scenarios. The approach revealed diverse additives and non‐intentionally added substances, supporting improved exposure assessment of plastic ...

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Cryptosporidium is responsible not only for large economic losses in the livestock sector, but also for high mortality in infants and immunocompromised people all over the world. Although multiple treatments have been tested in both animals and humans, no drug has yet been found to be 100% effective.
