There are two types of biodegradable plastics: bioplastics and plastics made from petrochemicals. Bioplastics are made from renewable resources, like vegetable fats and oils, vegetable starch, or microbiota. Plastics made from petrochemicals are made by combining biodegradable additives which enhance biodegradation.
