Thermoplastic blends are applied for three-dimensional (3D) printing to obtain improved functionality. While thermal, chemical, and mechanical properties of 3D-printed typically examined, biodegradability the plastics has rarely been focus research. In this study, we evaluated biodegradation behavior prototypes fabricated from various blends, including biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA), poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), non-biodegradable high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP)....
The boric acid-crosslinked polyvinyl alcohol coating on paper remarkably improves barrier properties and mechanical robustness without compromising biodegradability biocompatibility, a green advance in sustainable packaging.
Sepia melanin, a biopigment extracted from the ink sac of cuttlefish, is relevant to sustainable organic electronics. In this work, we flexographically print films an melanin including shellac as bio-sourced binder on silver electrode-patterned paper. We examine electrical response in high humidity and ambient conditions (here electronic conductivity 10−4 S/cm). Additionally, study biodegradation printed their individual constituents based mineralization into CO2 under composting conditions....
Sepia melanin, extracted from the ink sac of cuttlefish, is a bio-sourced pigment relevant to sustainable (green) organic electronics. In this work, we flexographically printed films an melanin including shellac as binder on silver electrode-patterned paper (hereafter referred film). We studied electrical response in ambient and wet atmosphere conditions. former case, deduced electronic conductivity high 10−4 S cm−1. Further, biodegradation their individual constituents based mineralization...
