DOI: 10.3390/polym14040838
Abstract: The biodegradation of polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) ternary biocomposites containing nature-based plasticizer acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), heterogeneous nucleation agents—calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and spray-dried lignin-coated cellulose nanocrystals (L-CNC)—in vermicomposting, freshwater biotope, and thermophilic composting have been studied.
