Description
This new book presents the most recent studies on biocomposites, discussing the engineering and technical properties of the most in-demand green materials employed for fabricating biocomposites along with approaches for enhancing their properties. The volume also looks at biobased cocomposites for environmental applications and explores polymer-based hybrid composites for use in the biomedical field such as their applications in tissue engineering and drug and gene delivery.
