Branched polyesters from radical ring-opening polymerization of cyclic ketene acetals: synthesis, chemical hydrolysis and biodegradation Open
A new synthetic route to the cyclic ketene acetal, 2-methylene-4-methyl-1,3-dioxepane (Me-MDO) is reported. The introduction of side-groups to the polyester affects its degradability.

Read-across of ready biodegradability based on the substrate specificity of <i>N</i>-alkyl polypropylene polyamine-degrading microorganisms Open
The biodegradation of N-alkyl polypropylene polyamines (NAPPs) was studied using pure and mixed cultures to enable read-across of ready biodegradability test results. Two Pseudomonas spp. were isolated from activated sludge with N-oleyl al…
