Photo-biodegradation enhancement

Abiotic hydrolysis, photo-oxidation and physical disintegration of polymers may enhance the biodegradation rate of polymers by increasing their surface contact area for microbial colonisation or by reducing the molecular weight [113]. In the case of lactic acid homo- and heteropolymers, abiotic hydrolysis is the most important reaction for initiating the environmental degradation... [Pg.771]

The development of advanced polymer materials for various sustainable applications requires obtaining polymer composites from low-cost, environmental friendly, renewable, and biodegradable resources (with natural biopolymers in their structure), with the main focus on enhanced multifunctional properties (e.g., thermal stability, impact resistance, water resistance, photo-stability) and reduced impact as pollution effects under environmental factors action (Thakur et al. 2014a, b Faruk et al. 2014 Lee et al. 2014 Al-Oqla and Sapuan 2014 Isogai 2013 Lee et al. 2012a, b ... [Pg.469]
