Description
The 7th World Conference on "Biodegradable Polymers & Plastics" held in Tirrenia (Pisa) - Italy in June 2002, as a renamed continuation of the International Scientific Workshops on "Biodegradable Polymers and Plastics" started in 1989, focused on the following topics: Environmentally Degradable Polymeric Materials (EDPs); Water-soluble/Swellable Biodegradable Polymers; EDPs from Renewable Resources; Biopolymers; Bioresorbable Materials for Biomedical Applications; Biorelated Polymers; and Standards and Regulations on EDPs. This issue contains most of the contribution from this conference.
