A research team has demonstrated that a material called a metal-organic framework (MOF) is a stable and selective catalyst for breaking down polyester-based plastic into its component parts. Only ...

Plastic pollution is not just in oceans and soil. Scientists have now found enormous amounts of microscopic plastic floating through urban air, far exceeding earlier estimates. Road dust and rainfall ...

Researchers have used a low-emissions method to harvest hydrogen and graphene from waste plastics. They say it not only solves environmental problems like plastic pollution and greenhouse gas ...

This article evaluates bulk analysis and scratch analysis methods for particle dispersion, highlighting the superiority of ...

According to a study published in Science, polymer scientists at ETH Zurich discovered an unexpected method for nearly completely breaking down PMMA plastic, also known as Plexiglas, into its monomer ...
