Biobased Polyethylene Furanoate: Production Processes, Sustainability, and Techno‐Economics Open
Polyethylene furanoate (PEF) is a biobased plastic, similar to synthetic polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is produced from the platform chemical 2,5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Much of the literature surrounding PEF is focused on u…

Are starch-based materials more eco-friendly than fossil-based? A critical assessment Open
This review conducts a comprehensive quantitative analysis of the life cycle assessments (LCA) of starch-based products from production inception (biomass and starch production) to final manufacture. More specifically, this analysis synthe…
