This specialist monograph provides an overview of the recent
research on the fundamental and applied properties of nanoparticles
extracted from cellulose, the most abundant polymer on the planet
and an ubiquitous essential renewable resource. Given the rapid
advances in the field and the high level of interest within the
scientific and industrial communities, this revised and updated
second edition expands the broad overview of recent research and
will be required reading for all those working with nanocellulose
in the life sciences and bio-based applications, biological,
chemical and agricultural engineering, organic chemistry and
materials science. It combines a general introduction to cellulose
and basic techniques with more advanced chapters on specific
properties, applications and current scientific developments of
nanocellulose. The book profits from the author's extensive
knowledge of cellulose nanocomposite materials.
This book describes the latest research on nanopolysaccharides in
the development of functional materials, from their preparation,
properties and functional modifications to the architecture of
diverse functional materials. Polysaccharide-based nanoparticles,
including nanocellulose, nanochitin, and nanostarch have attracted
interest in the field of nanoscience, nanotechnology, and materials
science that encompasses various industrial sectors, such as
biomedicine, catalyst, coating, energy, optical materials,
environmental materials, construction materials, and antibacterial
materials. This book establishes a fundamental framework,
highlighting the architecture strategies of typical functional
systems based on nanopolysaccharides and integrated analysis of
their significant influence and properties to various functional
behaviors of materials, to help readers to fully understand the
fundamental features of nanopolysaccharides and functional
materials. Addressing the potential for practical applications, the
book also covers the related industrial interests and reports on
highly valued products from nanopolysaccharides, providing ideas
for future studies in the area. Intended both for academics and
professionals who are interested in nanopolysaccharides, it is also
a valuable resource for postgraduate students, researchers, and
engineers involved in R&D of natural polymers, nanotechnology,
and functional materials.
