Effect of glassy carbon addition and photodegradation on the biodegradation in aqueous medium of poly ( 3‐hydroxybutyrate ‐ co ‐ 3‐hydroxyvalerate )/glassy carbon green composites

The use of biodegradable polymers is an interesting way to reduce the polymeric waste accumulation in the environment. However, the addition of fillers to biodegradable polymer matrices may decrease their biodegradability. Glassy carbon (GC) is a promising carbon material that can be employed as a filler in the production of antistatic packaging utilized to protect electronic components. The use of a biodegradable polymeric matrix such as poly...
