Polímeros biodegradables a base de almidón y compuestos biodegradables
(Asociación para el Fomento de la Ciencia y de la Técnica, 2005-12)
Biodegradable plastics are a new generation of materials, still at an early stage of development is tied to the growth of composting infrastructures, to the definition of severe standards for biodegradability and compostability, ...
Effect of nanoclay addition on the biodegradability and performance of starch-based nanocomposites as mulch films
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2019-06-07)
The biodegradation and performance of potential agricultural mulch films prepared from native and oxidized corn starch nanocomposites with chitosan-modified bentonite were studied under simulated soil test conditions. ...
Biodegradation of textile wastewater: Enhancement of biodegradability via the addition of co-substrates followed by phytotoxicity analysis of the effluent
(IWA Publishing, 2018-05-31)
This work reports on the biodegradation of textile wastewater by three alternative microbial treatments. A bacterial consortium, isolated from a dyeing factory, showed significant efficacy in decolourizing wastewater (77.6 ...
Biodegradable plastics in aquatic ecosystems: Latest findings, research gaps, and recommendations
(IOP Publishing, 2022-03)
The negative impact of plastic accumulation in aquatic ecosystems is a known and undeniable problem. However, while many of the scientific community's countermeasures against such accumulation target the effects of the ...
Development of Biodegradable Films Based on Chitosan/Glycerol Blends Suitable for Biomedical Applications
(Omics International, 2016-12)
In the present work, chitosan/glycerol blends were used to prepare biodegradable films with potential applicationin dermal treatment. While the presence of glycerol gives the hydrating effect, the chitosan characteristics ...
Biodegradable and non-retrogradable eco-films based onstarch?glycerol with citric acid as crosslinking agent
(Elsevier, 2016-01)
Biodegradable and non-retrogradable starch-glycerol based films were obtained using citric acid (CA) as crosslinking agent at 75 °C. This material allowed decreasing water vapor permeability (WVP) more than 35%, remained ...

Tensile properties, barrier properties, and biodegradation in soil of compression-Molded gelatin-dialdehyde starch films
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2009-05)
ABSTRACT: Glycerol (Gly)-plasticized gelatin (Ge) films crosslinked with dialdehyde starch (DAS) as environmentally friendly crosslinking agent were successfully produced by compression molding, demonstrating the capacity ...
Recent Developments in Smart Food Packaging Focused on Biobased and Biodegradable Polymers
(Frontiers Media, 2021-04)
Food packaging has a crucial function in the modern food industry. New food packaging technologies seek to meet consumers and industrial's demands. Changes related to food production, sale practices and consumers' lifestyles, ...
Effect of pH modification on bilge waste biodegradation by a native microbial community
(Elsevier, 2005-10)
During laboratory biodegradation of the oily liquid residue generated in normal ship operations, bilge waste, by an adapted native microbial community, bioemulsifier production and decrease in pH were observed. When the ...
