Samenvatting:

Biopolymers have gained increasing importance in the development of numerous environmentally friendly materials for a wide variety of applications. The development of strategies such as blending, bio-nanocomposites as well as structural modifications such as chain extension and hyperbranching has further enhanced their potential. The resulting advanced materials have the potential to compete with traditionally used non-biodegradable polymers, thus, eventually replacing them. The book targets many such advanced biopolymers based systems and presents deep insights into their generation, properties and performance in different applications
