Abstract

  Los materiales biodegradables se utilizan en envases, agricultura, medicina y otras áreas. Para proporcionar resultados eficientes, cada una de estas aplicaciones demanda materiales con propiedades físicas, químicas, biológicas, biomecánicas y de degradación específicas. Dado que, durante el proceso de síntesis de los poliésteres todas estas propiedades pueden ser ajustadas, estos polímeros representan excelentes candidatos como materiales sintéticos biodegradables y bioabsorbibles para todas estas aplicaciones. La siguiente revisión presenta una visión general de los diferentes poliésteres biodegradables que se están utilizando actualmente y sus propiedades, así como nuevos desarrollos en su síntesis y aplicaciones.   Palabra clave: biomateriales, polímeros biodegradables, poliésteres, policarbonatos, biopolímeros.   Abstract

Biodegradable materials are used in packaging, agriculture, medicine, and many other areas. These applications demand materials with specific physical, chemical, biological, biomechanical, and degradation properties to provide efficient results. Since all these properties can be adjusted during the polyesters synthesis process, these polymers represent excellent candidates as biodegradable and bio-absorbable synthetic materials for all these applications. Here, in this review is presented an overview of the different biodegradable polyesters currently used, their properties, and new developments in their synthesis and applications.

 Keywords: biomaterials, biodegradable polymers, polyesters, polycarbonates, biopolymers.
