- Biological Degradation of Polymers in the Environment (2019, background): “Characterized as a recalcitrant polymer of remarkable durability, the polymer’s properties are reflective of its aromatic units in its backbone and a limited polymer chain mobility [91].”
- Lifetime prediction of biodegradable polymers (2017, methodology): “In one study, which analysed the hydrolysis of model ester compounds as well as PCL at different temperatures, the activation energy for PCL under enzyme catalysis was estimated at 200 kJ/mol compared to 31 kJ/mol for the model dibutyladipate [221], although this was a poor model for PCL since there”
- Biological degradation of synthetic polyesters—Enzymes as potential catalysts for polyester recycling (2006, background): “[15] showed, that a number of low molecular weight model esters containing aromatic components representing structure elements in non-degradable aromatic polyesters could be hydrolyzed by lipases.”
- Plastic Degradation and Its Environmental Implications with Special Reference to Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (2012, background): “There have been a few studies that have established a link between plastic degradability and the degree of crystallisation of the polymer [39,72,73,75–77].”
- Hydrolysis of PET and bis-(benzoyloxyethyl) terephthalate with a new polyesterase from Penicillium citrinum (2007, background): “fusca has been reported to hydrolyze dibutylterephtalate (Marten et al. 2003) and PET (Muller et al.”
- Polymer biodegradation: mechanisms and estimation techniques. (2008, background): “Some enzymes with an activity of depolymerisation of (co)polyesters have been identified (Walter et al., 1995; Marten et al., 2003; Gebauer and Jendrossek, 2006; Muller, 2006).”
