    Recent Progress of Cell-Plastics as Neo Bioplastics: A Mini Review
    Author(s): Akihito Nakanishi* and Kohei Iritani

    Plastics are used for various application purposes such as social infrastructures and consumables in recent society so that those are essential materials. Although the researches and developments regarding the carbon cycling via plastics have been vigorously progressed throughout the world so far, only 9% of discarded plastics (6.3 Gt) could be re-used as the recycling resources. Then, the bio plastics deriving from CO2 as a carbon source were researched, resulting in the many productions derived from the metabolites extracted from plants and microorganisms. However, the processes for the fabrications are time- and money-consuming and complicated. Then, up to now, the concepts of cell plastics have been proposed that the unicellular green algal cells could be directly used as carbon recycling sources. The cell plastics were progressed for modifying mechanical characteristic.. Read More»
