- Less than 5% is used as plastics and a small amount of plastics are recycled.
- Plastics from the petrochemical industry are NOT biodegradable.
- Can lead to environmental problems E.G Acid rain & green house effect - 8Structure of cellulose & as a major component of biomass.- Cellulose has a zig-zag formation (increasing density & strength of molecule)
- Biomass is the material produced by living organisms.
