Biodegradable Polymers and Plastics
Synthetic and semi-synthetic polymeric materials were originally developed for their durability and resistance to all forms of degradation including biodegradation. Such materials are currently widely accepted because of their ease of processability and amenability to provide a large variety of cost effective items that help to enhance the comfort and quality of life in the modern industrial society. However, this widespread utilization of plastics has contributed to a serious plastic waste burden, and the expectation for the 21st century is for an increased demand for polymeric material. This volume focuses on a more rational utilization of resources in the fabrication, consumption and disposal of plastic items, specifically: -Environmentally Degradable Polymeric Materials (EDPs); -Water-soluble/Swellable Biodegradable Polymers; -EDPs from Renewable Resources; -Biopolymers; -Bioresorbable Materials for Biomedical Applications; -Biorelated Polymers; -Standards and Regulations on EDPs.
Thermal Properties of Green Polymers and Biocomposites
From the reviews: "...This very well written new book is recommended to academic and industrial researchers and specialists interested in green polymers and mainly in their thermal properties...This new and opportune book covers some important properties of green polymers and bio-composites." (D. Feldman, Concordia University, Montreal, Canada)
Hyaluronan
Hyaluronan and its derivatives has developed very quickly in the last few years from a scientific novelty into an important new material for a diverse range of medical and biomaterial applications. This landmark conference focused on developments and applications in the use of hyaluronan in tissue repair and reconstruction, drug delivery systems, anti-cancer treatments and joint recovery and engineering. The entire range of hyaluronan progress is covered in depth by the more than 135 individual papers: Analytical chemistry Structural elucidation and basic chemistry Electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy Production, purification and characterisation Quality in production systems Chem...
Green Polyurethanes and Biocomposites
Over the last ten years, circumstances surrounding nature-friendly materials have changed not only in research fields, but also in practical fields all over the world. Biomass conversion is one of the major scientific projects. In order to develop the utilisation of residual bioresources, the authors' research strategy is as follows: (1) renewable plant resources are used as starting material for the preparation of industrial products; (2) industrial residues of plant resources are utilised as they are, without further modification, as starting materials while taking into consideration cost performance; (3) a certain amount of contaminants is accepted, as long as it does not disturb the chem...

Lignin and Lignans
Over the past four decades, there has been immense progress in every area of lignin science, ranging from the enzymology of lignin biodegradation, to the delignification of wood fiber during pulping and bleaching, to advances in spectroscopy. Lignin and Lignans: Advances in Chemistry captures the developments that have been achieved by world-class
Degradable Polymers, Recycling, and Plastics Waste Management
Based on the International Workshop on Controlled Life-Cycle of Polymeric Materials held in Stockholm, this work examines degradable polymers and the recycling of plastic materials. It highlights recent results on recycling and waste management, including topics such as renewable resources, degradation, processing and products, and environmental is
Recent Advances in Environmentally Compatible Polymers
Based on the proceedings of the eleventh international Cellucon conference held in Tsukuba, Japan, this book offers a comprehensive overview of important research undertaken into all aspects of environmentally compatible polymers.It deals with natural and synthetic polymer materials such as gels, fibres, pulp and paper, films, foams, blends and composites and shows how environmental compatibility such as biodegradability and recyclability can be developed by utilising natural polymers such as polysaccharides and polyphenols. - Based on the proceedings of the eleventh international Cellucon conference held in Tsukuba, Japan - Offers a comprehensive overview of important research undertaken into all aspects of environmentally compatible polymers - Deals with natural and synthetic polymer materials such as gels, fibres, pulp and paper, films, foams, blends and composites
