Differences in the Plastispheres of Biodegradable and Non-biodegradable Plastics: A Mini Review
There has been a steady rise in the production and disposal of biodegradable plastics. Unlike the microorganisms present in the biofilms on non-biodegradable plastic surfaces (the “plastisphere”), the plastisphere of biodegradable plastic has not been ...

Recycling of a Biodegradable Polymer Blend [PDF]
Mechanical recycling is one of the possible ways to enhance the value of postconsumer plastic materials. However, the final performance of the recycled material will strongly depend on the quality of the selection made on the recycled product and on the degradation of the properties.

Biodegradable Polymers for the Environment [PDF]
Biodegradable polymers are designed to degrade upon disposal by the action of living organisms. Extraordinary progress has been made in the development of practical processes and products from polymers such as starch, cellulose, and lactic acid. The need to create alternative biodegradable water-soluble polymers for down-the-drain products such as ...

Effect of Biodegradable and Polypropylene Film Packaging on the Safety Profile of Jelly Marmalade [PDF]
Introduction. Waste management and poorly degradable polymer packaging are one of the main environmental issues. Biodegradable materials based on a composition of native and modified starches can solve the problem of polymer waste in food packaging. They

Investigation of Biodegradation of Polylactide Product Samples under Various Temperature and Soil Conditions [PDF]
In this work, the biodegradation of polylactide films, granules and tapes at temperatures of 23 °C and 8 °C in humus and chernozem soils was investigated. It was found that under the conditions studied, polylactide products are poorly biodegradable – for
