Journal ArticleDOI
Recycling of bioplastics, their blends and biocomposites: A review
Azadeh Soroudi,Ignacy Jakubowicz +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present scientific findings concerning the recycling of bioplastics, their blends and thermoplastic biocomposites, with special focus on mechanical recycling of bio-based materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of degradability of biodegradable polyethylene (PE)
TL;DR: In this article, the degradation of polyethylene films containing pro-oxidant has been studied at three temperatures that normally occur during composting conditions, including temperature, oxygen concentration, and molecular mass of the materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of accelerated and natural ageing on plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of ageing were detected after fixed periods of time of up to 2 months of exposure, using measurements of mass loss, residual stability, and elongation at break.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the rate of abiotic degradation of biodegradable polyethylene in various environments
TL;DR: In this article, the degradation of polyethylene (PE) films containing a manganese pro-degradant has been studied in various environments at 60 and 70 °C. The degradation was monitored from the change in molecular weight and the elongation at break after exposure to dry and humid air.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of thermooxidative degradation on the in situ fate of polyethylene in temperate coastal waters.
TL;DR: Polyethylene films were thermally oxidised to four different levels of degradation and placed in stainless-steel cages in the sea off the Swedish west coast for 12 summer weeks, where all levels showed increased biofouling with higher presence of filamentous algae and bryozoans on pre-degraded materials.
