This project focuses on developing biodegradable textile fibers to combat microplastic pollution. It aims to balance biodegradation rates with material performance by understanding the molecular design and properties that influence both aspects, potentially leading to innovative biosynthetic fibers.
Polymeric textile fibers, are one of the main sources of microplastics pollution in the open environment.
The European Strategy for Plastics in a Circular Economy acknowledges the need for increased R&D on biodegradable polymers. A key challenge of biodegradable plastics is that the biodegradation rate and material performance (e.g. mechanical and thermal) very often oppose each other.
It is therefore difficult to develop products that meet the performance requirements that users expect, and sti…
