One‐Pot Depolymerization of Mixed Plastics Using a Dual Enzyme System

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
The concurrent depolymerization of a polymer blend comprising three hydrolyzable plastics is demonstrated by employing an esterase and a urethanase in a sequential one‐pot process. The reaction resulted in a depolymerization degree of around 40 %, which corresponds to a minimum monomer yield of 3 % for 4,4′‐methylenedianiline (MDA) and a maximum of 55 %

Sustainable hemp fiber reinforced polylactic acid/poly(butylene succinate) biocomposites: Assessing the effectiveness of MAH‐g‐PLA as a compatibilizer

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Production of biocomposites. Abstract The unsustainability of petroleum resources and the growing issue of plastic pollution necessitate the development of sustainable biocomposites as alternatives to synthetic materials. On this basis, a blend of biosourced poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/poly(butylene succinate) was reinforced with hemp fibers (HF) in ...
