Scientists have found methods to convert plastic waste into valuable chemicals. One approach breaks plastics into olefins for ...

These are typically made from various forms of polyethylene ... involve unpicking a plastic’s polymer chains to recover the constituent chemical building blocks, or monomers.

The Courtyard planter is basically a ground planter, however, if you prefer a hanging basket, Equinox also supplies chains.

Avantium has signed a joint development agreement with Amcor to explore the use of Avantium's plant-based polymer PEF - ...

A new study published in ‘Nature Medicine’ has found that the human brain contains significantly higher levels of microplastics compared to other organs. Researchers analyzed brain, liver, and kidney ...

Avantium and Amcor are collaborating to create plant-based PEF plastic containers for diverse products, with Amcor reserving ...

Researchers studied samples of human brains and found high levels of microplastics, but it's unclear how they slip past the blood-brain barrier.

Amcor also has committed to a multiyear capacity reservation for Releaf from a future industrial-scale facility, based on a ...

A new study has confirmed that microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) accumulate in the human brain at significantly higher levels than in the liver or kidneys.

Most of the plastics found were nano-sized shards or flakes of polyethylene ... protective filter called the blood-brain barrier that blocks many harmful pathogens and toxins.

Tired of all the dire political news? How about some dire medical news instead - scientists just discovered your brain is a landfill for tiny plastic particles - with concentrations up to 30 times ...
