Abstract
In the 1990s research at Fraunhofer UMSICHT focussed on biodegradable plastics for catering and packaging applications. As a result of several research projects, mainly in co-operation with industrial partners, two families of biodegradable compounds "Biodegrade" and "Bio-Flex", several materials for special applications as well as specialty products from starch foam were developed.
