A group of researchers created a biodegradable ECG patch made from nanocellulose with the goal of reducing carbon footprints of plastics and electronics. Learn more about it in this article.
A United Kingdom-based startup has developed a new solution that’s making plastics self-destruct if they escape into the environment. Read to know more.
A potential solution, a completely recyclable and biodegradable printed circuit is developed to mitigate health and environmental hazards. Read to know more.
Biodegradable plastics are generally non-recyclable: they are intended as single-use materials that rapidly degrades back into smaller, safer materials. However, new research could find a second life for these plastic materials.
Oil and natural gas-derived plastics relatively cause the simplest environmental damage as plastics are inclined to persist in the environment for a longer period while resulting in other environmental effects.
New research shows that they may just have found a way to breakdown the components of Polyurethane waste into products that may become at least useful.
Biodegradable plastics will soon be replacing plastics made from petrochemicals. It took chemists a 100 years til the breakthrough to produce plastics from a sustainable source.
A new invention can save the planet while at the same time satisfy the thirst. The product is known as the edible water bottle with design of a biodegradable silicon breast implant
