Biodegradable polymers have experienced a growing interest in recent
years for applications in packaging, agriculture, automotive,
medicine, and other areas. One of the drivers for this development is
the great quantity of synthetic plastic discarded improperly in the
environment. Therefore, R&D in industry and in academic research
centers, search for materials that are reprocessable and
biodegradable. This unique book comprises 12 chapters written by
subject specialists and is a state-of-the-art look at all types of
polyethylene-based biocomposites and bionanocomposites. It includes
deep discussion on the preparation, characterisation and applications
of composites and nanocomposites of polyethylene-based biomaterials
such as cellulose, chitin, starch, soy protein, PLA, casein,
hemicellulose, PHA and bacterial cellulose.
