Now, we have over 1000 papers in the field of "Biomacromolecules, Biobased and Biodegradable Polymers", one section of Polymers (Basel). This is one of the largest sections in Polymers, including issues on biomacromolecules, biobased polymers, and biodegradable polymers for applications with environmentally benign materials, biomedical materials and so on. These applications are attracting attention day by day as there exist a lot of problems regarding environmental and biomedical issues. Here I reviewed papers published in this section between 2017 and 2019 and introduce prominent papers, analyzing the numbers of citations (times cited).
Keywords: biobased polymer; biodegradable polymer; biomacromolecule; biomaterial; biopolymer; environmentally benign material.
