PLA and Montmorilonite Nanocomposites: Properties, Biodegradation and Potential Toxicity
(2013-09-01)
The concern related to solid waste increases efforts to develop products based on biodegradable materials. At present, PLA has one of the highest potentials among biopolyesters, particularly for packaging. However, its ...

Deterioration of wood plastics composites by the white-rot fungus pycnoporus sanguineus
(2019-03-01)
Wood plastic composites (WPC) are characterized by the mixing of wood fibers with plastics, allowing the production of new products whose characteristics are in several aspects superior to those of the original products ...
Biodegradation of Coir and Sisal Applied in the Automotive Industry
(Springer/plenum Publishers, 2011-09-01)
This paper discusses the results of biodegradability tests of natural fibers used by the automotive industry, namely: coir, coir with latex, and sisal. The biodegradation of coir, coir with latex, and of sisal fibers was ...
