2. New Opportunities for Sustainble Building Materials
Enabling Technologies
Early generation biomaterials were starch-based
Starch-based
Performance benefit mainly biodegradability
Newer generations biomaterials
Oil, carbohydrates and protein feedstocks
Expanded to more durable applications
Can rival their petroleum-based counterparts
Enabling Green Chemistry: UPR, polyols, surfactants, plasticizers,
