Biodegradable materials are polymer materials that can be dissolved or decomposed organically, chemically, biologically or physically under the action of naturally occurring microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and algae. So, let's take a brief look at the specific types of biodegradable materials.

1. Polylactic acid (PLA): PLA has the characteristics of non-toxic, non-irritating, excellent biocompatibility, high strength, good processability, and biodegradability. The sheets, fibers, and films made of it have undergone thermoforming, After secondary processing such as spinning, it is widely used in packaging, textiles and medical equipment, and its waste can be converted into water and carbon dioxide through microorganisms.

2. Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA): PHA is a kind of intracellular polyester produced by many microorganisms. It is a pure natural polymer biomaterial with excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. And the heat treatment properties of plastics can be used as biomedical materials and biodegradable packaging materials.

3. Polybutylene succinate (PBS): PBS has excellent comprehensive performance, reasonable cost performance, and is widely used in packaging, tableware, cosmetic bottles and drug bottles, disposable medical supplies, agricultural films, pesticides and fertilizers Sustained release materials, biomedical polymer materials and other fields.

4. Polycaprolactone (PCL): In addition to the characteristics of easy processing of thermosetting plastics, PCL also has the characteristics of biodegradability, biocompatibility, shape temperature control memory and other characteristics. It is mainly used as a controlled release drug carrier. Fully biodegradable plastic surgical sutures and other medical materials.
