Hybrid Polymeric Nanocomposites from Agricultural Waste

<p><i>Hybrid Polymeric Nanocomposites from Agricultural Waste </i>examines the use of agricultural by-products for green production of new materials. It covers nanoparticle synthesis from agricultural wastes and nanocomposite development with a focus on polyethylene polylactic acid polymethylmethacrylate and epoxy resins and considers possible biomedical and engineering applications. </p><ul> <li>Showcases agricultural waste as polymer reinforcements to replace expensive synthetic fibres that discourage wide polymeric nanocomposite applications </li> <li>Discusses green synthesis and characterisation of hybrid nanocomposites from polylactic acid polymethylmethacrylate recycled/new polyethylene and epoxy resins </li> <li>Contrasts hybrid nanocomposites properties with standard nanocomposites using automotive case studies </li> </ul><p>The book is aimed at researchers advanced students and industrial professionals in materials polymer and mechanical engineering and related areas interested in the development and application of sustainable materials. </p>
