Biopolymers are referred to as polymeric substances which occur in living organisms. It comes as a surprise that biopolymers are in no way new to this world. It is primarily due to our fascination with petrochemical products that these amazing materials have been overlooked for such a long time. However, today we face a different challenge. Environmental challenges are pushing away from synthetic or petro-chemically formulated products, whereas economic factors are pulling back from usually more costly "green" alternatives. This book introduces two characteristics of biopolymers, potential products and their few important applications elucidating the present significance of biopolymers.
