The goal of the Center for Bioplastics and Biocomposites (CB2) is to improve the basic knowledge of the synthesis, processing, properties, and compounding of bioplastic and biocomposite materials, as well as to develop reliable material characteristics data for industrial partners and support large-scale industrial implementation of renewable materials. Sustainability is a rapidly growing aspect of technology, driven partially by social factors; however, many industries are struggling to effectively incorporate sustainability-related practices. CB2 creates new knowledge, materials, and processes for sustainable biobased plastics and composites. The vision of the center is to develop knowledge that will facilitate the production of an array of high-value products, including plastics, coatings, adhesives, and composites, from renewable feedstocks that are compatible with current industrial manufacturing systems and thereby promoting rural development as well as national growth. The center focusses on the development of jobs in the area of sustainable manufacturing, focusing on conversion of agricultural and woody crops to energy and materials which are crucial to lasting job creation in the United States. The center also strives to support education and diversity through engagement of K-12 educators, supporting a NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) ? co-located at ISU and WSU ? where students participate in research on sustainable materials.The mission of the Center for Bioplastics and Biocomposites (CB2) is to develop fundamental knowledge related to bioplastics and biocomposites, to dissemination research-based findings to industry to promote sustainability and to educate future scientists and engineers. The team of researchers includes experts from the fields of polymer processing, polymer chemistry, materials science, and biomass utilization. It combines a wide area of experience and expertise, allowing a well-rounded interdisciplinary approach. In addition, both participating institutions (Iowa State University and Washington State University) have state-of-the-art facilities for polymer processing and characterization to facilitate the development of a fundamental understanding of the influence of processing on the properties of biopolymers and composites. Research focus and priority areas are determined by industry partners through a process developed by the industry partners to ensure the relevance to and positive impact on sustainable future industry development. Individual projects are based on seed concepts generated by the center?s industry partners and ultimately defined through an interactive process between researchers and industry partners. The projects are then mentored on a monthly basis by the industry partners, which serves as a model for technology transfer.

生物塑料和生物复合材料中心（CB 2）的目标是提高生物塑料和生物复合材料的合成，加工，性能和复合的基础知识，以及为工业合作伙伴开发可靠的材料特性数据，并支持可再生材料的大规模工业实施。可持续性是技术的一个快速增长的方面，部分由社会因素驱动;然而，许多行业正在努力有效地纳入可持续性相关的实践。CB 2为可持续的生物基塑料和复合材料创造了新的知识、材料和工艺。该中心的愿景是开发知识，促进生产一系列高价值产品，包括塑料，涂料，粘合剂和复合材料，可再生原料与当前的工业制造系统兼容，从而促进农村发展以及国家增长。该中心专注于可持续制造领域的就业发展，重点是将农业和木本作物转化为能源和材料，这对美国持久创造就业至关重要。 该中心还努力通过K-12教育工作者的参与来支持教育和多样性，支持NSF本科生研究经验（REU）？在ISU和WSU共处一室？生物塑料和生物复合材料中心（CB 2）的使命是发展与生物塑料和生物复合材料相关的基础知识，向工业界传播基于研究的发现，以促进可持续发展，并教育未来的科学家和工程师。研究人员团队包括来自聚合物加工，聚合物化学，材料科学和生物质利用领域的专家。它结合了广泛的经验和专业知识，允许全面的跨学科方法。此外，两个参与机构（爱荷华州州立大学和华盛顿州立大学）都拥有最先进的聚合物加工和表征设施，以促进对加工对生物聚合物和复合材料性能影响的基本理解。 研究重点和优先领域由行业合作伙伴通过行业合作伙伴制定的流程确定，以确保对未来可持续行业发展的相关性和积极影响。 个别项目是基于中心产生的种子概念？的行业合作伙伴，并最终通过研究人员和行业合作伙伴之间的互动过程定义。 然后，行业合作伙伴每月对这些项目进行指导，作为技术转让的典范。
