Biopolymers and Their Industrial Applications: From Plant, Animal,
and Marine Sources to Functional Products is a detailed guide to
the use of biopolymers for advanced applications across a range of
key industries. In terms of processing and cost, bio-based polymers
are becoming increasingly viable for an ever-broadening range of
novel industrial applications. The book begins with an overview of
biopolymers, explaining resources, demands, sustainability, life
cycle assessment (LCA) modeling and simulation, and
classifications. Further in-depth chapters explore the latest
techniques and methodologies for isolation and physicochemical
characterization, materials selection, and processing for blends
and composites. Chapters 6 to 14 each focus on the preparation and
applications of biopolymers in a specific industrial area,
including food science and nutraceuticals, medicine and
pharmaceuticals, textiles, cosmeceutical, packaging, adhesives and
automotive, 3D printing, super capacitor and energy storage
devices, and environmental applications. The final chapter compares
and analyzes biopolymers alongside synthetic polymers, also
offering valuable insight into social, economic, and environmental
aspects. This is an essential resource for those seeking to
understand, research, or utilize biopolymers in industrial
applications. This includes researchers, scientists, and advanced
students working in biopolymers, polymer science, polymer
chemistry, biomaterials, materials science, nanotechnology,
composites, and biotechnology. This is a highly valuable book for
scientists, R&D professionals, designers, and engineers across
multiple industries and disciplines, who are looking to utilize
biopolymers for components and products.
