Samenvatting

Employing biodegradable polymers to create nanocomposites addresses many current environmental concerns, such as waste–disposal problems associated with traditional plastics and the potential to cut carbon emissions and reduce CO
2 quantities. Featuring state–of–the–art techniques and current developments in the field,
Biopolymer Nanocomposites describes the preparation, properties, modification, and application of three popular renewable resources: chitin, starch, and cellulose. The unique, easy–to–follow approach of this timely, practical reference on biopolymer nanocomposites helps industrial practitioners, researchers, and scientists better understand properties and synthesis of biopolymer materials and nanocomposites.
