Recent advances in biodegradable polymers indicate significant developments in terms of novel design strategies and engineering to provide polymeric materials that possess critical functions of being able to be broken down and removed after they have served their function. Polymeric materials with desired physical, chemical, biological, biomechanical and degradation properties can now be made with precision to meet various challenges in the environment and biological systems. However, there are several inadequacies in terms of either technology or cost of production. Thus, there is a need to have a fresh look on the design, properties and functions of these polymers with a view to developing strategies for future developments. The present paper reviews the present status on biodegradable polymers and discusses the salient features of the chemistry of biodegradation, design strategies and applications of biodegradable polymeric materials.
