This book begins by providing an overview of biobased materials, their classification, and their physical and chemical modifications. This is followed by a section covering the latest techniques in fabrication, processing, and characterization. Subsequent chapters are grouped by application area, offering insights into advanced and emerging utilizations of biobased materials in food, biomedical, environmental, and other industrial applications. The final part of the book highlights other key considerations, including life cycle assessment, circular economy, sustainability, and future potential.
- Presents processing methods, characterization techniques, and the latest advances in biobased materials
- Focuses on advanced and emerging applications of biobased materials in three key areas – food, biomedicine and the environment
- Considers sustainability issues relating to biobased materials, including environmental impact, lifecycle assessment and the circular economy
