## Abstract Biodegradation of phloroglucinol (1,3,5βtrihydroxybenzene) and other polyphenolic compounds by microbes may occur by aerobic and anaerobic metabolic pathways. Aerobic microbes may initiate the mineralization of phloroglucinol or other polyphenolics by either a reductive pathway, epoxide
Five kinds of aromatic polymers [polycarbonate(PC), polyarylate(PAR), polyetherimide(PEI), polysulfone(PSF), polyethersulfone(PESF)] were degraded at 380 Β° in vacuum. The molecular weights and molecular weight distributions of degraded samples were measured by gel permeation chromatography, using di
