Polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) with Phenolic Acids for Active Food Packaging
PHBV films incorporating 3, 6 and 9% ferulic acid (FA) or p-coumaric acid (PCA) were obtained by melt blending and compression moulding. The films’ microstructures and thermal behaviours were analysed as well as their mechanical, optical and barrier ...

Microplastic contamination poses a significant threat to agroecosystem functioning, provoking a move away from the use of conventional oil-based plastics in agriculture, to biodegradable alternatives that may be degraded over a shorter timescale.

Preparation and Characterization of PHBV/PCL-Diol Blend Films
Biodegradable thin films based on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and poly(caprolactone diol) (PCL-diol) blend were developed using the solution casting method. PHBV is biodegradable, biocompatible, and produced naturally by bacterial

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
