Polylactic Acid-Based Nanocellulose and Cellulose Composites cover

Polylactic Acid-Based Nanocellulose and Cellulose Composites offers a comprehensive account of the methods for the synthesis, characterization, processing, and applications of these advanced materials. This book fills a gap in the literature as the only currently available book on this topic.

This book:

  • Describes the procedures for the extraction of cellulose materials from different sources and characterization methods adopted for analyzing their properties
  • Covers properties, processing, and applications of PLA biocomposites made using the extracted cellulose
  • Discusses the effect of reinforcement of cellulose on the biopolymer matrix and the enhancement of biopolymer properties
  • Examines current status, challenges, and future outlook in biocomposite research and applications

The book serves as a reference for researchers, scientists, and advanced students in polymer science and engineering and materials science who are interested in cellulose polymer composites and their applications.
