Performance evaluation and chemical recyclability of a polyethylene/poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) blend for sustainable packaging
In this study, the use of PE and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) blend films for packaging was investigated by evaluating the performance of the plastic blend and its recyclability. It was found that mechanical properties (tensile strength, elongation at break and Young's mo...
