Abstract

Petroleum based plastics have been produced by the chemical industries since the early 1930s. These products are part of a very important group of materials, because their high molecular weight and low reactivity make them suitable for cases in which durable and inert materials are needed. But these advantageous properties of plastics are also their disadvantages, since they do not degrade and thus, they remain unchanged at the site of disposal. Therefore, over the past years, the use of plastics for different purposes and in various equipments has caused many problems related to disposal of solid wastes. It has been shown that petroleum based plastics accumulate in the environment at a rate of 25 million tons per year. Considering the growing problems caused by disposal of petroleum based plastics, that are non-degradable and remain in environment for many years, and in order to reduce the amount of plastic waste, worldwide programs such as recycling, incineration and source reduction have been initiated. Beside these strategies, which have their own special problems, biodegradable plastics have been the focus of extensive researches. In fact, biodegradable polymers, which are after disposal decomposed by many enzymes existing in the environment, offer the best solution to the environmental hazard caused by conventional plastics.
