Do Biopolymers Fulfill Our Expectations Concerning Environmental Benefits

This book chapter discusses results from Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies for the commercially most important biopolymers. Biopolymers are defined here as polymers that are fully or partially produced from renewable raw materials, covering both biodegradable and non-degradable polymers.
