Micro- and Nanostructured Polymer Systems : From Synthesis to Applications, Paperback / softback Book

Micro- and Nanostructured Polymer Systems : From Synthesis to Applications Paperback / softback

Edited by Sabu Thomas, Robert Shanks, Jithin Joy

Paperback / softback

Description

This book focuses on the recent trends in micro- and nano-structured polymer systems, particularly natural polymers, biopolymers, biomaterials, and their composites, blends, and IPNs.

This valuable volume covers the occurrence, synthesis, isolation, production, properties and applications, modification, as well as the relevant analysis techniques to reveal the structures and properties of polymer systems.

Biobased polymer blends and composites occupy a unique position in the dynamic world of new biomaterials.

The growing need for lubricious coatings and surfaces in medical devices—an outcome of the move from invasive to noninvasive medicines and procedures—is playing a major role in the advancement of biomaterials technology.

Natural polymers have attained their cutting-edge technology through various platforms, and this book presents a multitude of information about them.

Topics include biopolymer–synthetic systems, nanomaterial–polymer structures, multi-characterization techniques, polymer blends and composites, polymer gels and polyelectrolytes, and many other interesting aspects of interests to researchers. This book will be valuable to scientists, physicians, pharmacists, engineers, and other specialists in a variety of disciplines, both academic and industrial.
