Since the advent of synthetic polymers, the vast majority of such materials in production have been derived from petroleum products. Dwindling feedstocks of fossil fuels, as well as the growing problem of waste management, generate a need for recyclable and biodegradable polymers derived from renewable or abundant resources. These polymers also show great promise in medical applications such as organ augmentation and drug delivery, as well as in agricultural applications.

自从合成聚合物出现以来，生产中的绝大多数此类材料都来自石油产品。 化石燃料原料的减少以及废物管理问题的日益严重，产生了对源自可再生或丰富资源的可回收和可生物降解聚合物的需求。 这些聚合物在器官增强和药物输送等医疗应用以及农业应用中也显示出巨大的前景。
