Biobased resorbable polymeric nanocomposites are the biggest
breakthroughs in the search for green and eco-friendly healthcare compounds. These
biobased materials incorporate biodegradability characteristics with good mechanical,
thermal, and biological properties, which are attributable to the nanoscale
reinforcements. These nanocomposites help meet the fast-emerging need for green and
biocompatible materials in applications such as drug delivery systems, tissue
engineering scaffolds, and medical implants. Their ability to not cause any harm upon
being metabolized in the human body and maintain their structure during their
utilitarian lifespan keeps their environmental footprint and healthcare visitors’ waste
level to a bare minimum. This paper aims to review the state of existing knowledge,
limitations, and opportunities associated with the use of resorbable polymeric biobased
nanocomposites in healthcare to establish them as a part of the sustainable future in
medical technology.
