Abstract
Alternatives to waste management methods include the reorganization, recycling, and creation of
environmentally friendly biodegradable polymer materials based on renewable resources, plant, and
textile waste. The goal of this study is to analyze bibliographic data and identify trends in research on
polymer materials of different genesis, with particular attention to research on the production and use
of biopolymers. VOSviewer v.1.6.15 is used to present the analysis results. Environmental impact areas
in the life cycle of traditional polymers have been analyzed. The network of main bioplastics clusters is
visualized within the framework of modeling the dependencies on the main keywords in the analysis of
the dynamics of publication activity, the main trends in the development of new biodegradable
materials are revealed. A comparative review of the environmental impact of different types of
bioplastics is made by the life cycle assessment method.
Keywords
bibliographic data, bioplastics, identify trends, life cycle assessment, polymer materials
