Accelerated Weathering Effects on Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-<i>co</i>-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and PHBV/TiO<sub>2</sub> Nanocomposites

The effect of accelerated weathering on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and PHBV-based nanocomposites with rutile titanium (IV) dioxide (PHBV/TiO<sub>2</sub>) was investigated. The accelerated weathering test applied consecutive steps of UV irradiation (at 340 nm and...
