Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 36, September 20, 2026.The abstract explains the impact of various concentrations of chitosan on PBAT composite. Indeed, the composite is produced at increasing concentrations of chitosan (10%, 20%, and 30%). The decrease in the tensile strength with increased conc. of chitosan was recorded. Furthermore, the same impact was recorded for TGA analysis.

Toward Plastic‐Free Vineyards: The Role of Bioplastics in Sustainable Viticulture—A Review
Polymers for Advanced Technologies, Volume 37, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Agricultural value chains consume more than 12.5 Mt. of plastics annually, and vineyard systems are a notable source of short‐lived plastic waste. In viticulture, conventional plastics improve agricultural efficiency, crop protection, and wine quality, but their widespread use raises environmental and health concerns.
