Abstract

Regularities of microbiological effects on the properties of polymers and polymer-composite materials in laboratory and natural conditions are considered. Specific examples show the results and main mechanisms of biodegradation under the influence of mold fungi and bacteria. The main disadvantage of domestic and foreign standards for testing polymeric materials for biostability is noted—the impossibility of determining the exact contribution of the action of fungi, bacteria, or other microorganisms to the change in the properties of materials from exposure to moisture, temperature, solar radiation, chemically active substances, and other abiotic environmental factors. Modern methodological approaches are shown that make it possible to perform tests with the reproduction of all aging factors and the exclusion of biological destructors from their composition. To accelerate the identification of biodestructor fungi, a technique for new-generation sequencing of DNA fragments was proposed and a variant of its successful application was considered.
