Recent advances in the development of biodegradable PHB-based toughening materials: Approaches, advantages and applications
Abstract
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a natural biodegradable polymer that is produced by many types of bacteria as an intracellular energy storage material. Due to its numerous advantages such as biodegradability, biocompatibility, availability and with physical properties comparable to petroleum-based thermoplastics, PHB is a potential substitute in biomedical and packaging fields. However, several physical drawbacks, such as high production cost,...
