Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 653-669, April 2026.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Improved mechanical and thermal properties of polypropylene blends based on diethanolamine-plasticized corn starch via in situ reactive compatibilization

, 2013
Starch-based polymer blends are able to alleviate the environmental concerns. However, they usually suffer poor mechanical properties. Here, we first prepared plasticized starch using diethanolamine as a reactive plasticizer and then fabricated ...
