Biodegradation and characterization study of compostable PLA bioplastic containing algae biomass as potential degradation accelerator
This study demonstrated the degradation behavior of poly(l-lactic acid) (PLA)/algae biomass biocomposites under abiotic (58 ± 2 °C) and at thermophilic composting conditions (58 ± 2 °C). In the biodegradation study, laboratory synthesized, custom-made poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) pellets and its dumbb...
