These are plastics that are made using polymers derived from plant-based sources such as starch, cellulose, or lignin. Bio-based plastics can be engineered to be biodegradable, but are not necessarily.
Starch is one of the most promising natural polymers because of its inherent biodegradability, overwhelming abundance and annual renewability.
Biodegradable (of a substance or object) capable of being decomposed by bacteria or other living organisms and thereby avoiding pollution. Traditional plastics will not degrade for 400 years and will cause significant global pollution.
Plastics have been one of the most widely used materials across various industries for their versatility and cost-effectiveness. However, with the increasing awareness of the environmental impact of plastics, there has been a growing demand for sustainable and biodegradable alternatives.
