• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Advanced Processing, Properties, and Applications of Starch and Other Bio-based Polymers presents the latest cutting-edge research into the processing and applications of bio-based polymers, for novel industrial applications across areas including biomedical and electronics. The book is divided into three sections, covering processing and manufacture, properties, and applications. Throughout the book, key aspects of sustainability are considered, including improved utilization of available natural resources, sustainable design possibilities, cleaner production processes, and waste management.

• Focuses on starch-based polymers, examining the latest advances in processing and applications with this valuable category of biopolymer
• Highlights industrial sustainability considerations at all steps of the process, including when sourcing materials, designing and producing products, and dealing with waste
• Supports the processing and development of starch and other bio-based polymers with enhanced functionality for advanced applications
