Plant cell wall is a dynamic network highly organized which changes throughout the life of the cell. Therefore this chapter outlines the basis of polymerization with a biological approach in the plant cell wall, highlighting the biological effects of plant cell wall derivatives and their current applications. In this regard the polymerization processes that allow the synthesis of the cell wall and their components in living models are relevant, as well as the properties of the polymers and their derivatives. They are rich in mixed complex and simple biopolymers, which has opened the door to the development of wide applications in different technologic fields. Plant cell walls represent the most abundant renewable resource on this planet.
