Abstract

A brief review is presented concerning the methods for producing synthetic and composite polymer materials those can decompose under the influence of environmental factors. The advantage of these materials is demonstrated in comparison with the “classical” industrially produced petroleum-based polymers. Main ways and means are indicated to impart the biodegradable properties to polymeric materials.
