The interest in using biodegradable polymers as an alternative to petroleum based polymers has increased in recent years due to the limited resources of crude oil, global warming and environmental awareness. Development of biodegradable polymers generally catches the attention of researchers due to environmental problems associated with the disposal of petroleum based polymers. In this context, polymers obtained basically from renewable sources are a new generation of material capable of significantly reduce the environmental impact in terms of satisfying certain technical requirements and are fully biodegradable. Both synthetic and natural polymers that contain hydrolytically or enzymatically labile bonds or groups are degradable. The advantages of synthetic polymers are obvious, their batchto-batch uniformity and can be tailored easily. Therefore, natural polymer based materials offer a feasible alternative to the traditional polymeric materials when recycling of synthetic polymer is not cost effective or technically impossible. In order to be competitive compared to lost BIODEGRADABLE POLYMER: THE PROMISES AND THE PROBLEMS
