Aprašymas
Natural Fiber-reinforced Biopolymers: Materials, Applications, and Sustainability provides a comprehensive overview of natural fiber-reinforced biopolymers, focusing on their properties, synthesis, processing, applications, and sustainability aspects. Beginning with fundamental chapters on natural fibers and biopolymers, the book explores various composites created from polymers like polylactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), thermoplastic starch (TPS), chitosan, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), green epoxy, polycaprolactone (PCL), and bacterial cellulose, all reinforced with natural fibers. Advanced fabrication techniques, characterization methods, and practical applications across sectors including automotive, biomedical, packaging, agriculture, and environmental remediation are thoroughly discussed. The book also includes chapters on sustainability that address recycling strategies, life cycle assessment, and the role of these materials in a circular economy. This is an essential resource for researchers, engineers, advanced students, and industry professionals interested in sustainable materials and their applications.
