Xerox Fund Research into Biodegradable Plastics

Scientists at State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse, N.Y., are getting some help from Xerox Corporation as they seek to make inexpensive biodegradable plastics from byproducts of wood-based ethanol production.

Through the Xerox Foundation, the company has awarded the college a $20,000 grant, which can be renewed for two more years, to explore “Biodegradable ‘Green Polymers’ from Renewable Resources.” It’s one of 11 new fundamental research projects at universities around the world that Xerox has selected to fund as part of a 20-year-old, open innovation program that promotes university and industry interaction and enables Xerox to partner with academic luminaries.
