Biodegradable vs. Bio based Polymers
There is an increasing interest in the use of biodegradable and bio based polymers in terms of sustainability.
- Bio-based polymers contain natural and renewable resource in their structure.
- Biodegradable polymers can be degraded by microorganisms under appropriate conditions and degraded in nature.
The properties of biodegradable and bio-based polymers are different from each other, so when using these polymers, polymer selection should be made by considering the parameters such as the production process, the properties of the end product, and the end of-life of the product.
