Integr Environ Assess Manag 2024;20:1892–1911. 2024 SETAC Key Points: Microplastics (MP) have caused concern due to their environmental effects, potential to release plastic monomers, affinity for chemical interactions, and potential to enter aquaculture and fishery production.The findings ...
These substances have been increasingly spotlighted as means to saving fossil fuels, reducing CO2 emission and plastic wastes. Biodegradability of B... E Matsuura,Y Ye,X He - 《Product & Properties Guide》 被引量: 3发表: 2008年 Applications of Bioplastics in Food Packaging Materials: Recent ...
Our review contain the main biodegradable polymeric materials as such as cellulose acetate (CA), methyl cellulose (MC), hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), chitosan (QT), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), starch (AM) and poly (lactic acid) (PLA) used to assemble ...
Consumers worldwide have voiced growing alarm about the impact of plastic waste on the environment, and increasing numbers of companies are trying to use packaging materials that are recyclable or otherwise less polluting. Coca-Cola, for instance, plans to collect and recy...
it is vital that the material does not release any softeners or heavy metals that could endanger children.Toys can be made of liquid wood in the future.The advantage is that this bio-plastic,known as Arboform,is made of 100% renewable raw materials and is therefore not reliant on petroleum...
In this paper, we present a broad review on the advances in the research and development of bio-based polymers analogous to petroleum-derived ones. The main interest for the development of bio-based materials is the strong public concern about waste, pollution and carbon footprint. The ...
The increased use of plastic materials in the modern world, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, has resulted in the accumulation of huge amounts of plastic waste in various ecosystems, leading to negative impacts on the environment and human health [1,2]. Petroleum-based plastics, which ...
However, in many cases, the use of these types of raw materials requires a pretreatment step in the process to make the molecules that will be used as the carbon source in the bioconversion process accessible to PHAs. This type of pretreatment usually requires a high energy demand, resulting ...
Safety of plant fiber-based food contact materials: Overview of the discovery, identification, detection and risk assessment of unknown risk substances Plant fibers such as bagasse, wheat, and bamboo fibers are ideal alternatives to traditional plastic based petroleum for food packaging.The safety of ...
However, it is more expensive than other materials. Cheaper pressure sprayers use Nitrile (or Buna N) seals which are lower in cost and only suitable for many water-based chemicals. Product Testing The sprayer has been tested with several high concentrati...
