Apicella A, Malafeev K, Scarfato P, Incarnato L
Polymers (Basel) . 2024 Aug; 16(16). PMID: 39204488
Biodegradable polymers and their blends have been advised as an eco-sustainable solution; however, the generation of microplastics (MPs) from their degradation in aquatic environments is still not fully grasped. In...

Morici E, Pecoraro G, Carroccio S, Bruno E, Scarfato P, Filippone G, et al.
Polymers (Basel) . 2024 Apr; 16(7). PMID: 38611180
Biopolymers are of growing interest, but to improve some of their poor properties and performance, the formulation of bio-based blends and/or adding of nanoparticles is required. For this purpose, in...
