Impact of Enzymatic Degradation on the Material Properties of Poly(Ethylene Terephthalate)
With macroscopic litter and its degradation into secondary microplastic as a major source of environmental pollution, one key challenge is understanding the pathways from macro- to microplastic by abiotic and biotic environmental impact. So far, little is known about the impact of biota on material...
