Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Environmentally friendly materials refer to a class of materials that can be gradually absorbed by the environment under the action of light, water, or other conditions, which will cause molecular weight decline, physical properties, and other phenomena. They can also be called degradable materials.
Environmentally friendly materials are materials with excellent service performance from the collection, processing, use or recycling of raw materials, waste treatment, and even the whole life cycle of waste, with the least consumption of resources and energy, the least impact on the ecological environment, the highest recycling or decomposable properties, and safe treatment. They play a crucial role in reducing the waste of resources and energy, controlling pollution emissions, and protecting the environment.
