Influence of additives on biodegradation of the polyethylene filled with starch

Additives on the basis of by-products of manufacture of vegetable oil intensify process of biodegradation of the polyethylene filled with starch, and wax, on the contrary, has negative an effect on biodegradation, it is confirmed on microscopic mushrooms Penicillium, Rhizopus, Aspergillus. Presence of a protective wax cover reduces water absorption of compositions and washing away of components in water, it is an indirect estimation of low efficiency of biodegradation. Processing of compositions by enzyme α-amilaza raises effect of biodecomposition.
