In recent years, there has been a marked increase of interest in biodegradable materials for use in packaging, agriculture, medicine, and other areas. As a result, many researchers are investing time into modifying traditional materials to make them more environmental friendly, and into designing novel polymer composites out of naturally occurring materials. In order to overcome the environmental problems associated with natural and synthetic waste, biodegradation of materials holds good promise and a detailed and systematic study of the process are needed. Under ambient conditions, polymers are known to undergo deterioration in their properties characterized by change in their molecular weight and other physical properties. In this study biodegradable polymer based on natural products glucose and sorbitol were synthesized and were used in preparation of liquid and powder detergents, hand wash and dish washers. This investigation reveals that the polymers synthesized from raw materials of natural origin namely liquid glucose, glycerol, sorbitol etc. are susceptible to biodegradation.
