Coffee is one of the most popular beverages in the world, and its popularity is continuously
growing, which can be expressed by almost doubling production over the last three …

In view of the problem of marine plastic pollution and oil resource depletion, an innovative
attempt was made to obtain biobased seawater-degradable polyesters by installing lactic …

The very slow degradation of biodegradable polymers in the marine environment is due to
the lack of dedicated degradation enzymes in open seas. As a result, introducing monomers …

The melt polycondensation of glycolic acid based copolymers with high molecular weights
remains a big challenge. In this work, poly (butylene furandicarboxylate-co …

Although thermoplastic starch (TPS) has been developed to mitigate greenhouse gas
emissions and environmental and health-related impacts from plastics, high moisture …

The design and development of high-performance marine-degradable plastics have long
been considered a superior strategy to address marine plastic pollution. To achieve a …

Fully biobased poly (butylene 2, 5-furandicarboxylate)-co-poly (lactic acid) s (PBFLAs) of
lactic acid composition from 10% to 40% are synthesized. They are subjected to molecular …

High molecular weight aliphatic polyesters were synthesized from biobased 1, 5-
pentanediol and aliphatic diacids with 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, or 12 carbon atoms via melt …

Abstract Poly (glycolic acid)(PGA) is a biodegradable polyester with ultra-high rigidity,
strength and gas barrier properties but very poor toughness. Its high melting temperature (T …

The design and production of materials with excellent mechanical properties and
biodegradability face significant challenges. Poly (butylene terephthalate-co-caprolactone) …
