Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines the combining form 'bio-' (derived from Greek 'bios', meaning life) with 'based' (from Old English 'bæstan'), and 'polymer' (coined in the 19th century from Greek 'polys' meaning many and 'meros' meaning parts). It emerged in late 20th-century materials science and environmental chemistry to describe macromolecular substances derived wholly or in part from biomass rather than fossil fuels.
