There is growing interest in biodegradable polymers (BP), in particular poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT), due to environmental problems associated with the disposal of non‐biodegradable polymers into the environment. However, high production cost and low thermo‐mechanical properties restrict the use of this sustainable material, making its biodegradability advantageous only when it is decisively required. The addition of different compositions of monomers and selective addition of natural fillers have been reported as alternatives to develop more accessible PBAT‐based bioplastics with performance that could match or even exceed that of the most widely used commodity plastics. This review explores the recent progress of the applications and biodegradation of PBAT. The addition of natural fillers and its effect on the final performance of the PBAT‐based composites is also reported with respect to improving the properties of composites. The advance of polymerization reaction engineering combined with sustainable trend offers great opportunities for innovative green chemical manufacturing. POLYM. ENG.

“…The result indicates that m-PPZn can play a significant role in photodegradation protection. In a study conducted by Chen et al, it was reported that the MMT layers could contribute to the UV reflection ability, resulting in less photon energy interacting with the PBAT [ 13 ]. A similar approach was adopted in this study through the effect of a similar two-dimensional layered m-PPZn in the PBAT-m-PPZn composite materials.…”

“…It is worth noting that the UV-C (100–280 nm) of solar radiation is absorbed by the Earth’s atmosphere [ 9 , 10 ]. Thus, some organic or inorganic additives have been used to improve the stability of polymers with UV irradiation [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ].…”

“…PBAT wastes are nontoxic when biodegraded in the soil, which conforms to the ecotoxicity requirement of the ASTM standard [ 20 , 21 ]. To reduce the UV photodegradation of PBAT, different additives have been studied, such as montmorillonite (MMT), carbon black, and SiO 2 [ 13 , 22 , 23 ]. UV protection can be achieved by the application of additives that can absorb or reflect photon energy, thus reducing the photodegradation of the polymer matrix in polymer-based composite materials [ 13 ].…”

The enhancement of the ultraviolet (UV) photodegradation resistance of biodegradable polymers can improve their application efficacy in a natural environment. In this study, the hexadecylamine modified layered zinc phenylphosphonate (m-PPZn) was used as a UV protection additive for poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) via solution mixing. The results from the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and wide-angle X-ray diffraction analysis of the m-PPZn indicated the occurrence of hexadecylamine intercalation. FTIR and gel permeation chromatography were used to characterize the evolution of the PBAT/m-PPZn composites after being artificially irradiated via a light source. The various functional groups produced via photodegradation were analyzed to illustrate the enhanced UV protection ability of m-PPZn in the composite materials. From the appearance, the yellowness index of the PBAT/m-PPZn composite materials was significantly lower than that of the pure PBAT matrix due to photodegradation. These results were confirmed by the molecular weight reduction in PBAT with increasing m-PPZn content, possibly due to the UV photon energy reflection by the m-PPZn. This study presents a novel approach of improving the UV photodegradation of a biodegradable polymer using an organically modified layered zinc phenylphosphonate composite.

Biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) films incorporated with different levels of the antimicrobial peptide nisin were developed by melt processing. Structural, morphological, thermal, mechanical, and antimicrobial properties of the films were determined. The X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited decreasing levels of intensity at 2h values as the concentration of nisin increased. Scanning electron microscopy showed a heterogeneous morphology when higher amounts of nisin were incorporated. The antimicrobial films tested presented no significant differences in the melting temperature (123-1258C), and the crystallization temperature ranged from 69 to 758C. The addition of nisin caused no significant modification in tensile strength values. However, results of Young's modulus and deformation at break differed significantly among samples. Active films demonstrated inhibition against the Gram-positive bacterium Listeria monocytogenes. These results demonstrated that PBAT/nisin films produced by melt processing present a great potential for use as active food packaging materials aiming enhanced food safety.
