Исследователи из Батского университета разработали процесс, позволяющий превратить углевод дезоксирибозу и углекислый газ в циклический карбонат, который можно использовать в качестве мономера для получения биоразлагаемого биосовместимого поликарбонатного пластика. Разработанный подход открывает новый способ эффективного использования диоксида углерода, а также путь получения менее опасных по отношению к окружающей среде полимерных материалов из возобновляемого сырья.
