Cellulose esters, where thermoplastic cellulose acetate is the most industrially relevant derivative, have become highly significant as biodegradable materials issued from renewable bio-feedstock. This contribution highlights some of the main achievements in blending and functionalization of cellulose acetate through (reactive) melt processing with a view to produce environmentally friendly products. Biodegradation aspects of these cellulosic derivatives are also raised.
