Degradation of fundamental polymers/plastics used in daily life: a review
Polymers are made from the monomers that are used for packaging purposes. The degradation of polymers can take place either abiotic or biotic pathways. Abiotic pathway occurs from thermal, photo-degradation, and catalytic methods whereas, biotic occurs ...

Production of bioplastic material from algal biomass [PDF]
Bioplastic composite material was developed from polylactic acid used as basic polymer and microalgae. Two types of biomaterials were prepared based on the proportion of microalgae and polylactic acid. The mass ratios were set to 5:95 and 10:90.
