Green Polymeric Nanocomposites

Covering fundamentals through applications, this book discusses environmentally friendly polymer nanocomposites and alternatives to traditional nanocomposites through detailed reviews of a variety of materials procured from different resources, their synthesis, and applications using alternative green approaches. The text:

• 
  
  
• Describes green polymeric nanocomposites that show greater properties in terms of degradability, biocompatibility, synthesis process, cost effectiveness, mechanical strength, high surface area, nontoxicity, and environmental friendliness
• 
  
  
  
  
• Explains the basics of eco-friendly polymer nanocomposites from different natural resources and their chemistry
• 
  
  
  
  
• Discusses practical applications that present future directions in the biomedical, pharmaceutical, and automotive industries
• 
  
  

This book is aimed at scientists, researchers, and academics working in nanotechnology, biomaterials, polymer science, and those studying products derived from eco-friendly nanomaterials.
