Abstract Poly (3-hydroxybutyrate)(PHB) is a valuable bio-based and biodegradable polymer
that may substitute common polymers in packaging and biomedical applications provided …

The current processes for producing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are costly, owing to the
high cost of cultivation feedstocks, and the need to sterilise the growth medium, which is …

As a biodegradable plastic, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) has relatively poor mechanical
properties, preventing its wider use. Various plasticizers have been studied to improve the …

Material science is recognized as a frontrunner in achieving a sustainable future, owing to its
primary reliance upon petroleum-based chemical raw materials. Several efforts are made to …

Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a sought‐after alternative biopolymer to synthetics with its high
biodegradability and similar properties to available polymers. However, its high production …

The solution blow spinning technique was used to fabricate a new biocomposite fibrous mat
consisting of natural rubber (NR) and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) bioblend, with various …
