Introduction

Abstract

This research service provides an assessment of the development status and future prospects of biodegradable plastics, distinguished by the major biodegradable polymers, namely starch-based polymers, polylactic acid (PLA) and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). The key application sectors for biodegradable plastics have been prioritized and the business opportunities presented by the top two sectors have been evaluated in detail. Technology and application roadmapping as well as technology management strategies have also been provided.
