The Mechanical Properties of Recycled Polyethylene-Polyethylene Terephthalate Composites [PDF]
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), one of the thermoplastic polymers, is encountered with arduous problems in its recycling. After recycling, its mechanical properties drop dramatically and therefore it cannot be used to produce the products as virgin PET

Biological degradation of polyethylene terephthalate by rhizobacteria
Abstract In view of growing demand of plastic products, an enormous proportion of plastic waste causing the biological issue is produced. Plants in collaboration with their rhizobacteria partners are also exposed to these contaminants. The aim of the study is to determine the rhizobacterial ability to biodegrade polyethylene terephthalate (PET)
