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。矿物燃料的原料日益减少，以及废物管理问题日益严重，因此需要从可再生或丰富的资源中提取可回收和可生物降解的聚合物。这些聚合物在医学应用中也显示出巨大的前景，如器官增强和药物输送，以及农业应用。
