Polysaccharides are ubiquitous biopolymers with a wide range of industrial and consumer product applications. With the ever-increasing market demands for sustainable products, polysaccharides attracted a lot of attention recently as viable environmentally friendly replacements for petroleum-based nonrenewable synthetic polymers. Putting together state-of-the-art engineering control and breakthrough biotechnology, IFF has developed a family of engineered polysaccharides through enzymatic polymerization. These new-to-the-market engineered polysaccharides offer unique features and application benefits, including high quality, high technical performance, tunable properties, biodegradability…etc.<br/><br/>This presentation will provide a brief overview of IFF’s engineered polysaccharide development efforts, including the enzymatic polymerization process, the structures and properties of representative engineered polysaccharides, the derivatization of engineer polysaccharides, and applications.
