Résumé : |
With increasing concerns regarding the effect the textile industry is having on the environment, more and more textile researchers, producers and manufacturers are looking to biodegradable and sustainable 'biopolymer' fibers as an effective way of reducing the impact of textiles on the environment. Biopolymers are polymers that are biodegradable. The input materials for the production of these polymers may be either renewable or synthetic. There are 4 main types of biopolymer used for textiles namely starch, sugar, cellulose and synthetic materials. All natural fibers are biopolymer and the most common organic compound on earth. Apart from the conventional cellulosic fibers like cotton, these are several special biopolymer fibers such as alginate, chitin or chitosan, starch, keratin, or biosynthesized cellulose. |
