Researchers are focused on the global issue of plastic contamination in agricultural soils
because of the known effects of plastics on the soil ecosystem. Previous reviews did not pay …

Slow crack growth (SCG) is a time-dependent quasi-brittle type of failure that polyethylene
(PE) materials exhibit under low stress levels. The interplay between the crack and its plastic …

The paper presents results of strength tests of selected low-density polyethylene (LDPE)
building films with various thicknesses, including the assessment of their surface …

The application of plant-based by-products from the food industry as minimally processed
functional fillers for polymeric composites is an increasingly popular trend among …

Biopolymer-based films are a promising alternative for the food packaging industry, in which
petrochemical-based polymers like low-density polyethylene (LDPE) are commanding …

UV-stabilizers are a class of additives that provide extended polymer resistance to UV-
degradation, but have also been suggested to have antimicrobial activity, potentially …

In this paper, the possibility of obtaining uniaxially rotomolded composite parts was
discussed. The used matrix was bio-based low-density polyethylene (bioLDPE) filled with …

This paper presents a long-term experimental investigation of E-glass/epoxy composites'
durability exposed to seawater at different temperatures. The thermoset composite samples …

Herein, we report the fabrication and characterization of high-strength Kevlar epoxy
composite sheets for structural application. This process includes optimization of the curing …

Background Plastic greenhouse farming has become widespread worldwide because of its
contributions to various agricultural production. However, it also generates plastic waste in …
