The biodegradation of plastics, which are solid materials, occurs on the surface. While the inside section shouldn't be easily available for biodegradation, just the surface is affected by it. Thus, it is anticipated that the biodegradation rate in a laboratory setting will depend on the sample's surface area. All other environmental factors being equal, the bigger the surface area, the faster the rate of biodegradation. Plastic polybutylene sebacate pellets were milled and sieved into four samples, including pellets, with various specific surface areas in order to further investigate the impact of particle size on biodegradability.
