The Influence of Additives and Environment on Biodegradation of PHBV Biocomposites [PDF]
The biodegradation of polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) ternary biocomposites containing nature-based plasticizer acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), heterogeneous nucleation agents—calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and spray-dried lignin-coated cellulose nanocrystals (L-CNC)—in vermicomposting, freshwater biotope, and thermophilic composting have been

Supercritical antisolvent precipitation of PHBV microparticles [PDF]
The micronization of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) from organic solutions using supercritical antisolvent (SAS) technique has been successfully achieved. SAS experiments were carried out at different operational conditions and microspheres with mean diameters ranging from 3 to 9 microm were obtained. The effect of CO(2) and liquid

The morphology, crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of PLA, PHBV and their blends and nanocomposites with TiO2 as filler were investigated. An uncommon morphological change was observed with increasing PLA content in the blends, and this complicated the isothermal crystallization kinetics analyses of the different samples.

Cartilage tissue engineering using PHBV and PHBV/Bioglass scaffolds
Scaffolds have an important role in cartilage tissue engineering. Poly(hydroxybutyrate‑co‑hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) has been demonstrated to have potential as a scaffold for the three dimensional construction of engineered cartilage tissue. However, the poor hydrophilicity and mechanical strength associated with PHBV affects its clinical applications as ...

Modification of PHBV-blends with a biodegradable plasticizer [PDF]
Plastics have become an indispensable part of modern life and due to their outstanding properties, they are used for a wide range of products in a great variety of industrial sectors. However, if plastics are not disposed properly and released into the environment, they become a global problem.
