MODIFICATION OF POLYSTYRENE ISOLATED FROM STYROFOAM BY BLENDING WITH POLY-E-CAPROLACTONE

In recently year biodegradable plastics are very interesting topics. One of synthetic polymer used as row material for plastic is polystyrene (PS). Polystyrene has been made to have properties that are resistant to photo- and bio-degradation in environment. These properties can cause environmental p...
