Popis:	Eco-friendly biodegradable PBAT/PLA mulch films are attracting increasing interest in sustainable agricultural production. However, currently, little is known about the service life for the PBAT/PLA mulch films. Herein, PBAT/PLA mulch films are subjected to indoor UV-accelerated degradation (UAD) experiments and field cultivation environment degradation (CED) experiments to systematically investigate the relationship between UAD and CED processes. Results demonstrate that 10 days of indoor UAD treatment corresponds to around 120 days aging under outdoor CED conditions. Using eight PBAT/PLA evaluation indicators (haze, elongation at break, tensile strength, gel content, light transmittance, polydispersity index
