Upcycling Biodegradable PVA/Starch Film to a Bacterial Biopigment and Biopolymer

Upcycling Biodegradable PVA/Starch Film to a Bacterial Biopigment and Biopolymer

Meeting the challenge of circularity for plastics requires amenability to repurposing post-use, as equivalent or upcycled products. In a compelling advancement, complete circularity for a biodegradable polyvinyl alcohol/thermoplastic starch (PVA/TPS) food packaging film was demonstrated by bioconver...
