Overview
Sustainable Fillers/Plasticizers for Polymer Composites: Promising Resources presents a comprehensive review of the application and use of biofillers and bioplasticizers for the fabrication of biopolymer-based composites. This book looks first at the historical aspects and then goes on to discuss current trends and recent developments. Emphasis is placed on the future potential of these resources to expand their usage in a broad range of different applications. This book will be a valuable reference resource for both academic and industrial researchers working in materials science, polymer chemistry and engineering, and the manufacturing of polymer composite materials.
