Outline
Mycelium based plastic shows advantages of being low cost, eco-friendly, safe, inert and renewable, and therefore has the potential to replace polystyrene for a wide variety of applications such as packaging, construction, and transportation. This paper reviews the achievement and current status of the technology based on mushroom cultivation for mycelium based plastics. Synthesis process, property advantages, major applications and industrialization progresses are also briefed. Prospects of both technology and application are discussed in the end.
