Recycled plastic biocomposites have attracted widespread attention
from both researchers and manufacturers due to the significant
improvements in their physico-mechanical, thermal, rheological, and
barrier properties when compared to conventional materials, as well
as their potential regarding commercialization and zero waste.
Recycled Plastic Biocomposites presents the latest information on
recycled polymers, textiles, pulp and paper, wood plastic, rubber
waste plastic, and micro and nano effects of recycled plastic waste
resources that have great potential as reinforcement materials in
composites because they are non-toxic, inexpensive, biodegradable,
cost-effective, and available in large amounts. Recycled plastic
biocomposites are now starting to be deployed in a broad range of
materials applications due to their advantages over petroleum-based
materials. Currently, there are no limits to the possibility of
their applications. They also have exceptional sustainable and
biodegradable properties when compared to conventional materials
such as polymers and composites. Recycled Plastic Biocomposites
reviews the latest research advances on recycled plastic-based
biocomposites, including thermoplastic, thermoset, rubber, and
foams. In addition, the book covers critical assessments on the
economics of recycled plastic, including a cost-performance
analysis that discusses its strengths and weaknesses as a
reinforcement material. The huge potential applications of recycled
plastic in industry are also explored in detail with respect to low
cost, recyclable and biodegradable properties, and the way they can
be applied to the automotive, construction, and packaging
industries. The life cycles of both single and hybrid recycled
plastic-based polymer composites and biocomposites are also
discussed in detail. From the viewpoint of recycled plastic-based
polymer composites, the book covers not only the well-known role of
recycled polymers and composites, but also advanced materials
produced from micro-, nano-, and pico-scale fillers that achieve
better physical, mechanical, morphological, and thermal properties.
This book will be an essential reference resource for academic and
industrial researchers, materials scientists, and those working in
polymer science and engineering, chemical engineering,
manufacturing, and biocomposites.
