Biodegradable Mineral Plastics
Small Methods, 2023 AbstractMineral plastics are a promising class of bio‐inspired materials that offer exceptional properties, like self‐heal ability, stretchability in the hydrogel state, and high hardness, toughness, transparency, and non‐flammability in the dry state along with reversible transformation into the hydrogel by addition of water. This enables easy reshape‐

Biodegradability of Plastics [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2009 Plastic is a broad name given to different polymers with high molecular weight, which can be degraded by various processes. However, considering their abundance in the environment and their specificity in attacking plastics, biodegradation of plastics by microorganisms and enzymes seems to be the most effective process.
