When exposed to heat and water, the enzyme shrugs off its polymer shroud and starts chomping the plastic polymer into its building blocks in the case of PLA, reducing it to lactic acid, which can feed the soil microbes in compost. 1982;14:85778.

Click to reveal 02.04.2021 What is PLA? The decrease of Tg was clearly due to an enhanced mobility of the molecules, as a consequence of the hydrolysis process and plasticizing effect of the oligomer fragments and water during biodegradation [33, 42]. PubMed Central Biodegradable plastics are structurally more available for breakdown by microorganisms. These environments need very specific levels of oxygen and temperature that are well above 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Both are inexpensive and readily available enzymes. Further details are presented in the following section. To trigger degradation, it was necessary only to add water and a little heat. The term biodegradable is often used when advertising PLA material, suggesting that PLA just like kitchen waste can rot in domestic compost or in nature.
