Some of the main disadvantages of biodegradable polymers are their hydrophilic character, fast degradation rate and low mechanical properties in wet environments. Among the family of biodegradable polyesters, polylactides (i.e., polylactic acids) have been the focus of much attention because they are...

Today's much better performance of traditional plastics are the outcome of continued R&D efforts of last several years; however the existing biodegradable polymers came to public only few years back. Prices of biodegradable polymers can be reduced on mass scale production; and such mass scale ...
Thus, the fourth 'R' of the four 'R's (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Refuse) of environmental management seems to be an impractical strategy to deal with it. Love it or hate it, but can never refuse it. Poly-Hydroxy Alkanoates (PHAs) are natural, biodegradable polymers which can be moulded...
(1992) published their pioneering experimental studies of implanting non-biodegradable polyethylene-terephthalate braided mesh stent in animal models. The first trial for creating a biodegradable scaffold started later in 1996 when the efficiency of five different biodegradable polymers consisting poly(...

These polymers can be synthesized with reproducible qualit...
As already mentioned the abiotic degradation of biodegradable polymers relies, for the most part, on hydrolysis of groups in the polymer chain. Degradation of these groups results in the formation of small molecules which may then be absorbed by cells and degraded further into water and carbon dio...
