What else can I help you with?
Do you think photodegradable plastic that is buried in a landfill will break down quickly why or why not?
No it won't a because photodegradable means it will break down if exposed to sunlight, but since it is in a land fill there won't be much exposure to the sun, so that means it will slowly break down in the land fill.
Does ABS plastic break easily?
ABS plastic is known for its strength and durability, making it resistant to breaking easily.
Why are some jugs made of clear plastic instead of glass?

How long does it take a six pack plastic ring to decompose?
-All plastic ring carriers are made from a special low-density polyethylene plastic, which is 100 percent photodegradable. -Exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays causes the rings to weaken and become brittle. Wind and rain will break up the brittle carrier into small pieces. -When exposed to summer sunlight, a photodegradable plastic ring carrier will begin to lose its strength in a short period of time and become totally brittle in about three weeks. This process takes longer in cloudy, cold winter weather. - Once a ring carrier has been weakened by ultraviolet rays it poses minimal risk to wildlife. Since the carrier floats, photodegradation occurs on water as well as land. Ring carriers must be Photodegradable by law: *Degradable Plastic Ring Carriers Federal Law 40 CFR Part 238

100 years after it's buried, because there plastic, and the enzymes in the soil/dirt slowly breaks it down.
What is the difference between photo degradable and biodegradable?
Photodegradable materials break down into smaller pieces when exposed to light, but may not fully decompose into natural elements. Biodegradable materials can be broken down by microorganisms into natural substances like water, carbon dioxide, and biomass. In summary, photodegradable materials break into smaller pieces under light exposure, while biodegradable materials break down into natural substances with the help of microorganisms.
Why should you use metal door handles?
Well obviously plastic or any other material can break easily
Do glasses break easily?
Glasses can break easily if they are dropped or hit with enough force. The design and material of the glasses also play a role in their durability - for example, plastic frames are generally more flexible and less likely to break compared to metal frames.
