This unique multidisciplinary 8-volume set focuses on the emerging
issues concerning synthesis, characterization, design,
manufacturing and various other aspects of composite materials from
renewable materials and provides a shared platform for both
researcher and industry. The Handbook of Composites from Renewable
Materials comprises a set of 8 individual volumes that brings an
interdisciplinary perspective to accomplish a more detailed
understanding of the interplay between the synthesis, structure,
characterization, processing, applications and performance of these
advanced materials. The Handbook comprises 169 chapters from world
renowned experts covering a multitude of natural polymers/
reinforcement/ fillers and biodegradable materials. Volume 6 is
solely focused on the "Polymeric Composites". Some of the important
topics include but not limited to: Keratin as renewable material
for developing polymer composites; natural and synthetic matrices;
hydrogels in tissue engineering; smart hydrogels: application in
bioethanol production; principle renewable biopolymers; application
of hydrogel biocomposites for multiple drug delivery; nontoxic
holographic materials; bioplasticizer-epoxidized vegetable
oils-based poly (lactic acid) blends and nanocomposites;
preparation, characterization and adsorption properties of poly
(DMAEA) cross-linked starch gel copolymer in wastewater treatments;
study of chitosan cross-linking hydrogels for absorption of
antifungal drugs using molecular modelling; pharmaceutical delivery
systems composed of chitosan; eco-friendly polymers for food
packaging; influence of surface modification on the thermal
stability and percentage of crystallinity of natural abaca fiber;
influence of the use of natural fibers in composite materials
assessed on a life cycle perspective; plant polysaccharides-blended
ionotropically-gelled alginate multiple-unit systems for sustained
drug release; vegetable oil based polymer composites; applications
of chitosan derivatives in wastewater treatment; novel lignin-based
materials as a products for various applications; biopolymers from
renewable resources and thermoplastic starch matrix as polymer
units of multi-component polymer systems for advanced applications;
chitosan composites: preparation and applications in removing water
pollutants and recent advancements in biopolymer composites for
addressing environmental issues. Audience This valuable reference
work will be read and consulted by researchers, engineers and
students both in academia and industry who are working in the field
of materials science especially polymer composites/technology.
Composites from renewable materials have significant industrial
applications especially in the automotive, marine, aerospace,
construction, wind energy and consumer goods industries.
