在信息时代,电子产品给人们的生活和工作带来了无限的乐趣和便利。然而,这些“电子宠物”一旦被废弃,进入电子垃圾的行列,就会给生态环境系统增添重负,甚至带来灾难性的后果。电子产品结构复杂,所用的材料种类多,许多材料有较高的力学强度,很难在自然环境中分解。面对来势汹汹的电子垃圾,科学家们采取了哪些富有成效的对抗办法呢?科学家们发现,研究、开发用于电子产品的可生物降解的材料,是解决电子垃圾处理难题的一条有效途径。这里所说的生物降解,是指微生物对于材料的降解作用;而 In the information age, electronic products bring unlimited fun and convenience to people’s life and work. However, once these “e-pets” have been abandoned, they will enter into the ranks of e-waste, which will add more burden to the eco-system and may even have catastrophic consequences. The structure of electronic products is complex, with many kinds of materials used. Many materials have high mechanical strength and are difficult to be decomposed in the natural environment. In the face of the raging e-waste, which scientists have taken effective countermeasures? Scientists have found that research and development of biodegradable materials for electronic products, is an effective way to solve the problem of electronic waste disposal. Biodegradable here refers to the degradation of microorganisms on the material;
