Harmfulness Score: A Data‐Driven Framework for Ranking Environmental Risks of Microplastics

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 46, Issue 24, December 18, 2025.
Using machine learning and bibliometric sentiment analysis on over 100 000 abstracts, this study introduces the Harmfulness Score to rank environmental risks of microplastic polymers. Polystyrene and polyethylene emerge as top‐risk materials, supporting targeted regulation and evidence‐based policy recommendations.

Degradation of PBS and PET Under Processing Conditions

open access: yesMacromolecular Symposia, Volume 414, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Polybutylene succinate (PBS, 51% bio‐based) andpolyethylene terephthalate (PET, 20% bio‐based) were developed into films via thermocompression. Crystallinity was analyzed using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), while mechanical properties were evaluated through tensile tests.

Thermostable Bacterial Esterases From Lipase Family 1.5 Degrade Compostable Polyesters PBAT and PBSA

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
This study highlights that there is a broader diversity of enzymes with polyester depolymerase activity to be discovered from nature, beyond the well‐known PETases. We demonstrate that uncharacterized bacterial lipases possess polyesterase activity and thermostability, offering promising candidates for industrial plastic recycling without extensive ...

Burning “ExposHome”: Deriving a Mixture of Combustible Materials in American Homes at the Wildland‐Urban Interface for Health Studies

open access: yesGeoHealth, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Approximately 39% of U.S. homes are now located in the Wildland‐Urban Interface (WUI) and are at elevated risk of burning during wildfires. WUI fires emit a cocktail of chemicals from the combustion of anthropogenic materials, including compounds that may differ from the burning of biogenic‐only materials.
