ADVANCES IN POLYMER SCIENCE BIODEGRADABLE SCIENCE Biodegradable polymers are a type of polymer that can break down naturally in the environment, typically through the action of microorganisms such as bacteria or fungi. These polymers are designed to degrade over time, reducing the amount of plastic waste in the environment and minimizing their impact on the ecosystem. BIODEGRADABLE POLYMER FACE MASK FOOD PACKAGING SANITARY NAPKIN SMART POLYMERS a type of polymer that can change their properties in response to changes in their environment, such as temperature, pH, light, or electrical signals. These polymers can adapt to different conditions, making them useful for a wide range of applications, including biomedical devices, sensors, and self-healing materials. NANOCOMPOSITES materials that combine traditional polymers with nanoparticles, which are tiny particles with sizes in the range of 1-100 nanometers. This combination of materials leads to enhanced properties, such as improved strength, toughness, and conductivity, making nanocomposites useful for applications like energy storage, catalysis, and biomedical devices.
