Natural Polymers and Synthetic Polymers

Natural polymers are polymers that occur naturally in our environment. Natural polymers come from a variety of sources, including plants, animals, and microorganisms. Natural polymers are widely used in various biomedical applications such as pharmaceuticals, tissue regeneration scaffolds, drug delivery devices, and imaging devices. In wound care, it is used as a wound dressing for acute or chronic wounds. Natural polymers include DNA, cellulose, protein, pectin, silk, wool.

Synthetic polymers are made by a chemical reaction called "polymerization". There are various forms of polymerization. The importance of synthetic polymers lies in their use in society as they possess many desirable properties such as strength, flexibility, toughness and chemical inertness.
