The third volume of the Handbook of Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA)
focusses on the production of functionalized PHA bio-polyesters,
the post-synthetic modification of PHA, processing and additive
manufacturing of PHA, development and properties of PHA-based
(bio)composites and blends, the market potential of PHA and
follow-up materials, different bulk- and niche applications of PHA,
and the fate and use of spent PHA items. Divided into fourteen
chapters, it describes functionalized PHA and PHA modification,
processing and their application including degradation of spent
PHA-based products and fate of these bio-polyesters during
compositing and other disposal strategies. Aimed at graduate
students and professionals in Polymer science, chemical engineering
and bioprocessing, it: Covers current state of the art in the
development of chemically modifiable PHA including mult-istep
modifications of isolated biopolyesters, short syntheses of monomer
feedstocks and so forth. Describes design of functionalized
PHA-based polymeric materials by chemical modification .
Illustrates preparation of bioactive oligomers derived from
microbial PHA and synthetic analogues of natural PHA oligomers.
Discusses processing and thermomechanical properties of PHA.
Reviews advantages of PHA against other bio-based and conventional
polymers with current applications and potential uses of PHA-based
polymers highlighting innovative products.
