Engineering Biopolymers: Markets, Manufacturing, Properties and Applications 1. wydanie

This book focuses on the hot topic of bio/renewable materials. It is based on comprehensive research projects, during which these materials were systematically analyzed and characterized. It offers comparable data not only for biogenic polymers and biological macromolecules, including the fast growing and commercially important group of engineering materials. Extensive material characteristics tables finally provide missing, crucial comparative data for this emerging material class. This book also includes valuable information regarding micro-structure, manufacturing and processing, application, and recycling properties of biopolymers.
