Biodegradable polymers:
Those polymers which can be decomposed by microorganisms are known as biodegradable polymers.
Biopolymers degrade by enzymatic hydrolysis and by oxidation.
Example: PHBV (poly-β-hydroxybutyrate-co-β-hydroxy valerate) and nylon 2-nylon 6
Final Answer:
Those polymers which can be decomposed by microorganisms are known as biodegradable polymers.
