Abstract

Invited for this month′s cover is the collaborative group of Dr. Carol Sze Ki Lin and Dr. Xiang Wang. The image illustrates the biodegradation of plastics and the potential for plastic waste recycling and valorization to address the plastic waste dilemma. The Minireview itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.202100752.

Funding Information:
We are working on our recently funded Collaborative Research Fund (CRF) project titled “Reducing Transmission of Novel Coronavirus and Other Infectious Diseases Using Food Waste‐derived Medical Textiles via Electrospinning for Healthcare Apparel and Personal Protective Equipment”. We aim to use food waste as the feedstock to produce bioplastics. These bioplastics will be fabricated, via electrospinning, into medical textile materials that can be used in various applications, such as face masks.
