• Polymer biodegradation: mechanisms and estimation techniques. (2008, background): “So, thermoplastic films can undergo several mechanical degradations under field conditions (e.g. low-tunnel films, mulches, etc.) (Briassoulis, 2004,2006,2007).”
• Lifetime prediction of biodegradable polymers (2017, background): “[342] tested Mater-Bi films in low tunnel, direct cover and mulching film applications over a period of three years in four different European locations and found that the mechanical degradation of the films was directly related to their thickness.”
• Photocatalytic degradation of low density polyethylene (LDPE) films using titania nanotubes (2016, background): “Uncontrolled burning of polyethylene produces vapours which includes many toxic compounds like ketones, acrolein, and methane and pollute the air which causes serious environmental hazards (Briassoulis et al., 2004; Briassoulis, 2006).”
