Biopolymers

The book entitled "Biopolymers" is structured in 3 chapters. Chapter one includes the classification of biopolymers as well as the main types of biopolymers (biodegradable natural polymers and biopolymers based on synthetic materials). Biopolymers based on synthetic materials is: polyglycolide acid (PGA), polylactide acid (PLA), poly (lactide-co-glycolide), polycaprolacton, poly dioxanone, polyurethane, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), polyhydroxyval-erate (PHV) and copolymers, polyanhydried and poly( orthoesters). Chapter two includes the use of biopolymers in medicine, surgery, food biopolymers and the use of biopolymers in industry.
