Opis: Surface Modification of Biopolymers

This book addresses surface modification techniques, which are critical for tailoring and broadening the applications of naturally occurring biopolymers. Biopolymers represent a sustainable solution to the need for new materials in the auto, waste removal, biomedical device, building material, defense, and paper industries. Features: * First comprehensive summary of biopolymer modification methods to enhance compatibility, flexibility, enhanced physicochemical properties, thermal stability, impact response, and rigidity, among others * Address of a green, eco-friendly materials that is increasing in use, underscoring the roles of material scientists in the future of new "green" bioolymer material use * Coverage applications in automotive development, hazardous waste removal, biomedical engineering, pulp and paper industries, development of new building materials, and defense-related technologies * Facilitation of technology transferList of Contributors vii Preface xi 1 Surface Modification of Biopolymers: An Overview 1 Manju Kumari Thakur, Ashvinder Kumar Rana, Yang Liping, Amar Singh Singha, and Vijay Kumar Thakur 2 Surface Modification of Chitosan and its Implications in Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery 20 Dilip Depan and Raj Pal Singh 3 Microwave Irradiated Synthesis of Agar Based Graft Copolymers: Analytical Evidences, Biomedical and Environmental Applications 45 Sumit Mishra, Gautam Sen, and G.
