About this document
Enzymatic Plastic Degradation Mechanisms by sethjiankita400 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Enzymatic degradation of plastics involves enzymes breaking down polymer chains through surface erosion and depolymerisation, influenced by factors like temperature and environmental conditions. Fungi secrete various enzymes that enhance the degradation process, which is more effective when combined with photodegradation and thermo-oxidative mechanisms. Understanding these mechanisms is essential for improving biodegradation strategies and the environmental performance of biodegradable polymers.
