Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs)
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are naturally-occurring polymers produced by bacteria. A variety of bacterial species produce PHAs by fermenting biomass under nutrient-limiting conditions. These water-insoluble storage polymers are biodegradable, exhibit thermoplastic properties and can be produced from renewable carbon sources found in plants. The thermoplastic properties, biodegradability and biocompatibility make these renewable materials suitable for several applications in packaging industry, medicine, pharmacy, agriculture and food industry.
