Sažetak
Bioplastics are not just one single material They comprise of a whole family of materials with different properties and applications. According to European Bioplastics, a plastic material is defined as a bioplastic if it is either biobased, biodegradable, or features both properties.Biobased is the material or product (partly) derived from biomass (plants)e.g. corn, sugarcane, or cellulose. Biodegradable polymers are mostly produced from plant-based materials PLA is obtained from FERMENTED STARCH, which is itself obtained from corn, cassava, sugar cane or sugar beet. TPS is produced by HEATING STARCH from plant materials with water and mixing with plasticisers. PHAs are distinct in that they’re extracted from BACTERIA, which produce it by fermenting sugar or lipids obtained from waste or plant-based feedstocks.
