Polylactic Acid Nanocomposites
Download or read book entitled Polylactic Acid Nanocomposites by author: Ali Nabipour Chakoli which was release on 15 November 2021 and published by Elsevier with total page 500 pages . This book available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle Format. Polylactic Acid Nanocomposites: Synthesis, Fabrication, and Applications takes an innovative approach to the design, preparation, and processing of polylactic acid nanocomposites, for the latest cutting-edge applications. The book begins by introducing polylactic acid nanocomposites, and their physical and chemical properties. The third chapter describes the use of each reinforcing filler in detail, covering carbon nanotubes, clay, graphene and graphene oxide, metal and metal oxide nanoparticles, nanocellulose, polyhedral oligomericsilsesquioxanes (POSS), silica nanoparticles, and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles. This is followed by in-depth chapters unlocking the potential of shape-memory properties, and explaining advanced fabrication techniques, such as casting, electrospinning, and 3D printing. The book then focuses on the ground-breaking advanced biomedical applications, as well as further application possibilities in agriculture, food processing, and other industries, before finally considering important environmental and human health factors in the final chapter. Polylactic Acid Nanocomposites: Synthesis, Fabrication, and Applications is an essential guide to polylactic acid nanocomposites, and their current or potential applications, for academic researchers, scientists and students across biopolymer science, polymer chemistry, polymer nanocomposites, plastics engineering, biomaterials, materials science, biomedical engineering, and medicine. It is also a highly valuable resource for those in industry, including scientists and R&D professionals looking to utilize PLA or to develop products that will utilize PLA nanocomposites. Provides systematic coverage of the reinforcing fillers used in the synthesis of polylactic acid nanocomposites, including carbon nanotubes, clay, graphene, metal oxide nanocomposites, and many more Focuses on advanced biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, nano and microcapsules for drug delivery, and cancer therapy Presents the very latest developments in the field, including 3D printing of PLA nanocomposites, and shape-memory effect
