Cellulose is the most abundant natural biopolymer. Recently,
modified cellulose has been used as a reinforcement for various
composites. Cellulose composite and modified cellulose are
attractive because of their excellent mechanical and thermal
performance. Furthermore, these are fully biodegradable in a wide
variety of environmental conditions. Researchers all over the world
are working on reinforcing cellulosic materials, with a goal to
increase the number of uses of cellulose composites and modified
cellulose. This book reviews some vital issues and topics on the
latest scientific and technological advances in cellulose
composites and modified cellulose. There are few books available on
these topics. This book contains 20 invited contributions, written
by renowned experts from many countries. Each chapter focuses on
issues related to the use of cellulose composites and modified
celluloses. This book thus demonstrates the real potential of these
materials to be useful in different products and industries.
Highlights of the book include the cellulose modification for smart
material and medical applications, functional finishing of
textiles, new cellulose-derivative plastic films, cellulose-based
composites (such as thermoplastic composites, smart cellulose
composites, composites for building and household materials), smart
applications of cellulose-based materials in tissue engineering,
digital dyeing and wrapping materials. There are also special
sections on Bayesian statistics in interpreting wood pyrolysis and
techniques in developing value-added products from cellulosic
biomass. Thus, this book, covering the vital issues and topics of
cellulose, its modifications and uses, should be attractive and
supportive to scientists, product designers, polymer engineers and
other academic processionals.
