Abstract
The accumulation of plastic waste can have negative effects on ecosystems and human health. The economic benefits or recycling many types of plastic waste are limited. This CAREER project will explore new designs for common polymers used in the packaging industry that will facilitate their biodegradation after use. The project will also find new additives to improve the properties of polymers in plastic waste so…
