- Poly(butylene succinate) and its copolymers: Research, development and industrialization (2010, unknown): “Various catalysts, such as SnCl2 [37], distannoxane [38–40], lanthanide triflates [41], p-toluenesulfonic acid [42], tetrabutyl titanate [43–48], tetraisopropyl titanate [49, 50], etc.”
- A comprehensive review on biodegradable polymers and their blends used in controlled-release fertilizer processes (2015, methodology): “Bikiaris et al. (2006) studied the M-M kinetic parameters of the three aliphatic polyesters by enzymatic hydrolysis with Rhizopus delemar lipase by kinetic Eq.”
- Biodegradability of Plastics (2009, methodology): “PPS with low Tm (43-52 °C) had the highest biodegradation rate followed by PES, owing to the lower crystallinity of PPS compared to PES and PBS [37].”
- Lifetime prediction of biodegradable polymers (2017, background): “It has also been observed that for aliphatic polyesters more generally, the enzymatic hydrolysis rate is accelerated as the temperature increases, with quite rapid hydrolysis rates when the temperatures were 10 to 20°C lower than the melting temperature [214], although no activation energy for PLA w”
- Synthesis of the bio-based polyester poly(propylene 2,5-furan dicarboxylate). Comparison of thermal behavior and solid state structure with its terephthalate and naphthalate homologues (2015, background): “The odd number of methylene units in the diol segment is responsible for the lower melting points, lower degree of crystallinity and higher biodegradation rates of the polymers prepared form 1,3-propanediol, compared with their homologues based on ethylene-glycol or 1,4-butanediol [19].”
- Polymer biodegradation: mechanisms and estimation techniques. (2008, methodology): “…can be used (a) The evaluation of macroscopic modifications in the materials, i.e. roughening of the surface, formation of holes and cracks, changes in colour, development of microorganisms over the surface, etc. (Lugauskas et al., 2003; Rosa et al., 2004; Bikiaris et al., 2006; Kim et al., 2006b).”
