Evaluation of the biodegradation of polymeric materials in the freshwater environment-An attempt to prolong and accelerate the biodegradation experiment

Dagmar Sasinkova et al.

Summary: This study aimed to verify the applicability of international standards for testing slowly degradable polymeric materials and to accelerate the biodegradation testing by increasing the temperature. The results showed that the increase in temperature did not accelerate the biodegradation process and led to undesirable phenomena at 37 degrees C.

A review on PLA with different fillers used as a filament in 3D printing

A. Joseph Arockiam et al.

Summary: Three-dimensional (3-D) printing is a method of forming objects by depositing materials layer by layer. It can be done with various materials such as ceramics, polymers, and metals. Researchers are developing biodegradable additives for 3-D printing to make it more sustainable. Biodegradable polymers are considered promising materials for 3-D printing due to their abundance and beneficial properties. However, they have some inferior properties compared to conventional synthetic polymers. In this study, the use of advanced bio-waste polymers as reinforcement materials with polylactic acid (PLA) filaments in 3-D printable filaments was investigated to improve the properties. The mechanical and thermal properties of PLA filaments with different fillers were examined in this review.

The mechanical testing and performance analysis of polymer-fibre composites prepared through the additive manufacturing

Vigneshwaran Shanmugam et al.

Summary: The recent development of fibre composites is strong due to their high performance and durability. However, polymer-fibre composites manufactured through additive manufacturing (AM) have lower strength compared to traditional processes. This comprehensive review focuses on mechanical testing and performance analysis of polymer-fibre composites fabricated through AM, particularly fused deposition modelling (FDM).

An overview of non-biodegradable bioplastics

Md Hafizur Rahman et al.

Summary: Bioplastics have brought flexibility to human life but also introduced challenges in waste management. Approximately half of the current bioplastic market is not biodegradable, posing a problem for governments and policymakers. The production of bioplastics usually starts from biomass and goes through various modification techniques to produce non-biodegradable bioplastics.
