Bioplast, short for bioplastic, refers to a type of plastic made from renewable biological sources, such as corn, potatoes, or sugarcane. Unlike traditional plastics, which are derived from fossil fuels, bioplasts are designed to reduce environmental impact and reliance on non-renewable resources. They can be biodegradable or compostable, depending on their composition. These materials are increasingly used in various applications, including packaging, utensils, and even automotive parts. Bioplasts aim to provide a more sustainable alternative to conventional plastics, helping to address issues like plastic pollution and resource depletion while still offering similar functionality and versatility.
