•Stable in air and when stored in humid conditions
•Fully biodegradable - breaks down into carbon dioxide and water when it is exposed to micro-organisms found naturally in soil, sewerage, river bottoms and other similar environments
•Biopol can decompose faster without oxygen (not that much oxygen in modern day landfill)
•Insoluble in water
•Biocompatible (little chance of being rejected by body)
•Permeable to oxygen
•Resistant to U.V light
•Acid and base resistant
•Soluble in chlorinated hydrocarbons
•High melting point
•High tensile strength
•Denser than water
•Non toxic

What is the different properties of materials in material science?
What ARE material properties? Otherwise known as characteristics, these are the things that make a material useful. Mechanical properties: Ductility (elastic or plastic) Brittleness (stiffness), compression, tension, torque, shear, toughness, & hardness. Electrical properties: conductor, insulator, semiconductor Thermal properties: conductor or insulator Optical properties: transparent, translucent, reflective, opaque.
