The book begins by explaining the fundamentals of cellulose and cellulose-based nanocomposites, including sources, extraction, types, classification, linkages, model structure, model compounds, and characterization techniques. The second part of the book covers the incorporation of cellulose fillers to improve the properties or characteristics of nanocomposites, organized by composite category, including in aerogels, thermoplastic composites, thermoset composites, bioplastic composites, carbon nanofibers, rubber composites, carbon fibers, and foaming materials. Throughout these chapters, there is an emphasis on the latest innovations and application potential. Finally, applications are explored in more detail, notably focusing on the utilization of nanocellulose in biodegradable composites for biomedical applications, along with other important industrial application areas.
This book is of great interest to researchers, scientists, and advanced students working with bio-based materials, and across polymer science, nanomaterials, composite materials, plastics engineering, chemical engineering, materials science and engineering, as well as R&D professionals, engineers, and industrialists interested in the development of bio-based materials for advanced applications or material commercialization.
- Presents the fundamentals of cellulose-based nanocomposites, including sources, extraction, types, classification, linkages, structure, compounds, and characterization.
- Discusses and analyzes the most suitable fabrication methods and processing techniques for cellulose as a reinforcement in a range of composites.
- Opens the door to a range of cutting-edge applications and considers key aspects such as cost, lifecycle, and biodegradability.
Academia: Researchers, scientists, and advanced students working with bio-based materials and across polymer science, nanomaterials, composite materials, plastics engineering, chemical engineering, materials science, and engineering. Industry: R&D engineers and industrialists interested in the development of bio-based materials for advanced applications (biomedical, automotive, packaging, etc.).
