Abstract: Abstract Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), comprising a broad range of bio-based polymeric materials, are natural biodegradable polyesters formed by microorganisms. The simplest, best characterized and extensively studied member of the PHAs family is Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB). PHB is… read more here.
