Description

Compostable Polymer Materials by Elsevier provides a comprehensive look at an environmentally important family of polymers. These materials are specifically designed for disposal in industrial and municipal compost facilities once their useful life has ended. As environmental concerns and new legislative measures grow globally, composting has become a highly attractive method for disposing of redundant polymers. This book offers up-to-date results and information regarding these specialized plastics. It explains how these polymers undergo degradation to ensure they leave no visible, distinguishable, or toxic residue behind. For researchers, students, and professionals in the field of chemistry, this text serves as a coherent resource for understanding the science behind sustainable plastic alternatives and the processes that make them environmentally friendly.
