Poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol), or EVOH
EVOH is a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl alcohol, obtained from ethylene and vinyl acetate, followed by hydrolysis. It is used as an oxygen barrier film in multilayer films for packaging. Its high cost limits its applications as a biodegradable material.
The second group of biodegradable polymers is formed by hydro biodegradable materials, i. e. those that need to undergo the chemical process of hydrolysis (breakdown of molecules by reaction with water) before they become biodegradable. Therefore, the decomposition process of the polymer occurs in two stages: first, the molecules break up into small fragments by hydrolysis; and second, these fragments are biodegraded by microorganisms.
In both stages, the presence of water is essential, both to chemically fragment the molecules, and to be consumed by microorganisms, that need much water in their cells. To this group belong the aliphatic (i. e., non-aromatic) and the aliphatic-aromatic polyesters, described below. PCL can also be biodegraded directly by enzymes produced by microorganisms, without the initial stage of hydrolysis .
