Biopolymer-Polyhydroxybutyrate

Introduction
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biopolymer that can be used as a biodegradable thermoplastic material for waste management strategies and biocompatibility in the medical devices. PHB is produced by microorganisms (like Ralstonia eutrophus or Bacillus megaterium) apparently in response to conditions of physiological stress. The polymer is primarily a product of carbon assimilation and is employed by microorganisms as a form of energy storage molecule to be metabolized when other common energy sources are not available. PHB is a fully biodegradable polyester with optical activity, piezoelectricity, and very good barrier properties. These carbohydrates are the raw material for the manufacture of PHB. PHB can be produced from glucose as a raw material or agricultural waste like, for instance, molasses or material, which is refined from the processing of sugar beets and lactose. The sugar splits up in the metabolism to C2 building blocks, which are converted, over several steps, to C4 monomers. Finally, PHB is polymerized. Researches for optimizing the production of PHB from natural source in the cost competitive to the petro- based plastics is going on.
