| book description |

Preparation, Processing and Properties of Biopolymers and Biocomposites is one of a two-volume set of titles that provides comprehensive information on the latest advances in this important research field. The first volume focuses on the preparation, processing, and properties of these materials and the second on their diverse range of applications. In this volume the fundamental principles of processing biopolymers and creating their associated biocomposites are covered in detail. It covers topics such as extraction and purification of biopolymers from natural sources, synthesis of biopolymers through fermentation and bioengineering, and the incorporation of fillers and reinforcements to create biocomposites with unique tailored properties. The volume also explores the characterization techniques used to assess the physical, mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties of these materials. By providing insights into their processing techniques and structure-property relationships, the volume will equip the reader with the knowledge needed to design and engineer these materials for a specific range of applications.
