Synopsis

The term biomimetic is comparatively new on the chemical scene, but the concept has been utilized by chemists for many years. In a simi­ lar manner, the term biomimetic polymers means creating synthetic poly­ mers which imitate the activity of natural bioactive polymers. Thus, biomimetic polymers imitate the life process in many ways.
