Precipitation of LDPE-EPDM and LDPE-EVA mixtures from ternary solutions
European Polymer Journal, 2015 The fast precipitation of mixtures of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) and ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer, from xylene solutions by cooling, leads to fractionation of the mixtures; LDPE/EPDM mixtures

Bioremediation of MP-polluted Waters Using Bacteria Bacillus licheniformis, Lysinibacillus massiliensis, and Mixed Culture of Bacillus sp. and Delftia acidovorans [PDF]
Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Quarterly, 2021 Microplastic particles (MPs) are widely distributed pollutants in the environment. While a growing number of studies have shown that MPs are toxic to plant and animal life, systemic efforts to reduce their presence have been scarce.

Effect of Chemical Modification on the Flow Behaviour of LDPE and its Belnds with Linear LDPE
Polymer, 1998 The flow behaviour of LDPE and its blends with linear LDPE (LLDPE) chemically modified with DCP was studied as a function of blend composition and shear rate at a constant temperature using a capillary rheometer.

NON-BIODEGRADATION OF POLYMERIZED POLYETHYLENE RADICALS AT SELECTED DUMPSITES IN KEFFI, NASARAWA STATE NIGERIA [PDF]
Journal CleanWAS, 2023 Polythene and plastic bags pollutes the soil because these are non-biodegradable, and so, they cannot be degraded by the action of the microbes. Therefore, they remain in the soil and will pollute the soil.
