The term “Biopolymer” signifies that it is a biodegradable chemical compound, a biodegradable polymer which is considered as one of the most organic compounds in the ecosphere. Biopolymers refer to the polymers synthesized from living organisms and some of the biopolymer examples include, lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, peptides, DNA, RNA and polysaccharides such as cellulose, glycogen, and starch. Among the various end-use applications of biopolymers such as agriculture and horticulture; packaging and food services; automotive and consumer goods, packaging and food services generate the highest revenue wherein biopolymer packaging gains high popularity for wrapping premium and organic foods. In this application area, biopolymers are used as biodegradable packaging materials for fresh food, meat trays, juice bottles, bakery goods and dry snacks as well as coatings for card stock, beverage cups, and films.
