Starch-Based Polymeric Materials and Nanocomposites Chemistry, Processing, and Applications (original) (raw)

Abstract

Starch is the second most abundant natural polymer. Due to its unique physical and chemical properties, starch polymer is increasingly viewed as a potential sustainable alternative to many petroleum chemicals. This book provides a dedicated and in-depth reference on starch based biopolymers. It is the first reference to bring together essential information on the Chemistry, Processing and Applications of starch based biopolymers and nanocomposites. The text addresses processing and application challenges relevant polymer industry. In addition, the authors deliver insight into the current state of art and emerging starch based biopolymer processing technologies.
