Polymers, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(17), P. 2488 - 2488

Published: Aug. 31, 2024

Agricultural mulching is an important input for modern agricultural production and plays role in guaranteeing food security worldwide. At present, polyethylene (PE) still commonly used most countries around the world, which non-biodegradable, years of have caused serious white pollution. Lignin one three major components plant cell walls, it also main renewable natural aromatic compounds nature. Lignin-based composite film materials are green, biodegradable, show good prospects development field mulch. This paper introduces types, structure, application status lignin, summarizes preparation lignin-based its latest research progress, focuses on methods, examples mulching, looks forward to future mulching.

Polymer-Plastics Technology and Materials, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 1 - 40

Published: Nov. 1, 2024

One of the polymers with biggest production volume is poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) considering their versatility, durability, lightweight, as well low cost production, plastics have recently become an essential part everyone's daily life. However, increased and usage poses significant environmental problems because incomplete utilization, a lengthy biodegradation period, detrimental effects on living things. This study examines latest findings in PVC research, including its properties, polymerization, modification, recycling, diverse applications. It has been proposed that during along application both inorganic organic thermal stabilizers, can mitigate some basic limiting characteristics PVC. chemistry extended by vast continuous study, mainly chemical transformations this polymeric material. describes modification using different materials active modifying agent. The latter included substitutions, modifications, nucleophilic radicals, removal or dehydrochlorination, grafting polymerizations. PVC's consequences are examined, overview functionalization provided article, discussion main reactivity trends lens recycling.

Variability in microplastic abundance, bisphenol A contamination, antioxidant properties, and health risks associated with vegetable consumption

Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(1)

Published: April 18, 2025

Abstract Background Plastic pollution, particularly microplastics (MPs) and toxic additives such as bisphenol A (BPA), endangers human health. Therefore, their routes in the environment need to be investigated. This study investigated microplastic abundance, (BPA) levels, antioxidant activity (AA) three commonly consumed vegetables—green amaranth, jute mallow, spinach sourced from two markets Osogbo, southwestern Nigeria. Microscopic technique was used determine MP shapes, colours. High-performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analyse BPA contents while 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay measure AA. hazard index (HI) estimated dietary intakes (EDIs) were estimate associated risks food safety concerns with vegetables. Results In this study, abundance shoots ranged 4.00 ± 0.50 7.67 1.04 particles/g roots 5.33 1.53 18.00 6.93 green respectively, indicating subsoil contamination. Three shapes (fragment, fibre, irregular) five colours (transparent, white, yellow, black, brown) detected, fragment shape transparent colour dominating. Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopic (FTIR) analysis revealed a predominance of polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl chloride, polyamide microplastics. The 5.55 0.56 6.65 0.00 μg/g AA 40.67 6.79 72.55 4.03%. regression principal component (PCA) identify relationship among factors (MPs, BPA, AA). It is suggested that high levels MPs negatively impacted vegetable quality they are environmental Contrastingly, had significant positive correlation quality. Both EDIs HI < 1, no risk exposure consumption. Conclusion highlights potential health contamination intake suggest immediate risks, but long-term remains concern. vegetables warrant stricter monitoring agricultural soil irrigation water sources. Microplastic crops can reduced policies regulate plastic waste disposal promote sustainable farming practices.
