Abstract
Abstract During the last decades, thermoplastic packaging market has rapidly grown thanks to the rapid increase of global consumption, globalization and the unbeatable compromise between properties and large availability of relatively cheap commodity polymers. Recent awareness of the urgency of dealing with environmental concerns has stimulated the R&D on green materials such as biobased and biodegradable polymers, in this case mainly for short-term packaging applications. Main advantages are a lower environmental impact and a controlled end of life by enzymatic degradation till mineralization to resolve the complex equation linked to the waste management. Thus, the aim of this review is to highlight the variety of existing biobased and biodegradable polymers and their corresponding multiphasic systems, in connection with their production, relative properties and applications for packaging.
期刊介绍：
Polymer Reviews is a reputable publication that focuses on timely issues within the field of macromolecular science and engineering. The journal features high-quality reviews that have been specifically curated by experts in the field. Topics of particular importance include biomedical applications, organic electronics and photonics, nanostructures, micro- and nano-fabrication, biological molecules (such as DNA, proteins, and carbohydrates), polymers for renewable energy and environmental applications, and interdisciplinary intersections involving polymers.
The articles in Polymer Reviews fall into two main categories. Some articles offer comprehensive and expansive overviews of a particular subject, while others zero in on the author's own research and situate it within the broader scientific landscape. In both types of articles, the aim is to provide readers with valuable insights and advancements in the field of macromolecular science and engineering.
