Abstract: Biostability and biodegradability of different polymeric materials is an important ecological and technological problem. The leading role in the destruction of such waste belongs to microorganisms, namely, microscopic fungi. Therefore, recently muchattention is paid to polymer compositions based on natural (chitin, chitosan, starch, cellulose) and synthetic polymers (acrylic) can be degraded by micromycetes. By the method of differential thermal analysis examined changes in physical-chemical properties polymethylmethacrylate, chitosan to block and graft copolymers by the action of Aspergillus terreus and Penicillium cyclopium.
Keywords: waste, synthetic polymers, natural polymers, recycling, micromycetes
