The increased consumption of plastics in the world has been a subject of great concern and special attention by the scientific community. The aim is to promote development of materials that are ...

LDPE biodegradation potential of naturally occurring aerobic ... Microbially treated and untreated polyethylene films were taken out after 45 days and washed with 2% SDS and dried at 50 °C as ...

Additionally, through electron microscopy, they observed tears and cracks on the surface of the degraded polyethylene, confirming the biodegradation process caused by the enzyme. The research team ...

2021). The search equation [“Biodegradation” OR “Biological degradation” OR “Biomineralization” AND (“Low-density polyethylene OR LDPE”)] was applied and the filters of the scientific tools were used ...

The biodegradation of biaxially stretched composite films were investigated by using ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) with viscosity average molecular weight of 6×10 6 and starch.

during tubular extrusion of HDPE/LDPE films, without and with 1% of two different pro-oxidants, d2w TM and benzoin. The results of viscosimetric and MFI analyses indicated smaller chain sizes in the ...

Researchers at the Autonomous University of Tlaxcala found that the fungus Pleurotus ostreatus can degrade low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films The fungus produced ... down LDPE UV radiation enhanced ...
