Replacing conventional plastics with bioplastics, ie, plastics that are bioderived and/or
biodegradable, does not necessarily solve the issues of resource depletion and plastic …

Fears concerning microplastics (MPs) environmental fate and persistence are progressively
expanding on a global basis, with the emphasis given to manufacturing bioplastics for …

Fossil resources are rapidly depleting, forcing researchers in various fields of chemistry and
materials science to switch to the use of renewable sources and the development of …

Biopolymers from renewable bio-based resources provide a sustainable alternative to
petroleum-derived plastics, but limitations like brittleness and cost restrict applicability …

The serious issue of textile waste accumulation has raised attention on biodegradability as a
possible route to support sustainable consumption of textile fibers. However, synthetic textile …

The present study focuses on enhancing the mechanical, thermal, and degradation behavior
of polylactic acid (PLA) by adding carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with different concentrations of …

Here, solution-cast blends of polylactic acid (PLA) and a novel bioderived poly
(pentamethylene 2, 5-furanoate)(PPeF) in variable concentrations (1–50 wt%) are prepared …

Despite the advantages of polylactide (PLA), its inadequate UV-shielding and gas-barrier
properties undermine its wide application as a flexible packaging film for perishable items …

This work presents the successful preparation and characterization of polylactide/poly
(propylene 2, 5-furandicarboxylate)(PLA/PPF) and polylactide/poly (butylene 2, 5 …

Highly promising fully biobased random copolyesters, poly (trimethylene 2, 5-
