Abstract

U ovom preglednom radu dan je kratki pregled polimera na bazi polisaharida. Polimeri na bazi polisaharida definirani su kao polimeri direktno izdvojeni iz biomase, čime se kategoriziraju kao prirodni biorazgradivi polimeri. Biorazgradivi polimeri javljaju se kao novo područje u znanosti materijala. Zahvaljujući svojoj sposobnosti biorazgradnje, primjenjivi su u medicini, farmaciji i poljoprivredi, a posebice veliku primjenu nalaze kao ambalažni materijali, čime se smanjuje ukupna količina ambalažnog otpada. Iz tih razloga, biorazgradivi polimeri sve su privlačniji s ekološkog stajališta. Rad se temelji na pregledu biopolimera baziranih na škrobu, celulozi, ligninu i hitinu te njihovim modifikacijama i derivatima. Njihova svojstva, struktura i područja primjene također su prikazani. Obrađeni su i polisaharidi poput alginske kiseline, agra, pektina i hijaluronske kiseline te njihova primjena.

Abstract (english)

In the Thesis Polymers based on polysaccharides, a short review of biopolymers based on polysaccharide is given. Polymers based on polysaccharides are defined as polymers extracted from biomass, which makes them natural biodegradable polymers. Biodegradable polymers are introduced as a brand new area in material sciences. Due to its ability of biodegradation, they are applicable in medicine, pharmacy, agriculture and especially widely used as packaging materials, which helps reduce the total amount of packaging waste. It is for these reasons that biodegradeable polymers are becoming more popular from an ecological point of view. The Thesis is focused on the review of biopolymers such as starch, cellulose, lignin and chitin as well as their modifications and derivatives. Their basic properties and application area are also given in this part. Polysaccharides such as alginic acid, agar, pectin and hyaluronic acid are reviewed as well as their application area.
