Abstract
With the recent turn toward a green and sustainable environment, the adoption of biopolymers and other natural alternatives to synthetic productions have seen a surge. The production of biopolymers composites offer a proposal for attaining an eco-friendly environment where the fossil fuel reliance for the production of everyday products is reduced. Furthermore, the technological innovations of the present day have encouraged and escalated the introduction of biopolymers in diverse industries and soon may level up their utilization in par with the petroleum-derived ones. Of recent, biopolymer composites combine properties of one biopolymer with another to obtain an enhanced complex that exhibits distinctive features. Biopolymer composites are processed through several methods including infiltration, electrospinning methods and in-situ methods and have achieved considerable global attention been currently utilized in biomedical, automotive, food, construction, and medical industries. Although the efficiency of biopolymer composites has not reached that of their petroleum counterparts, their eco-friendliness, biodegradability, and other qualities will inspire their continual investigation and exploitation. This article focuses on biopolymer composites. It discusses their types, techniques of processing, applications in diverse industries, limitations, and future recommendations.
期刊介绍:
Colloid and Polymer Science - a leading international journal of longstanding tradition - is devoted to colloid and polymer science and its interdisciplinary interactions. As such, it responds to a demand which has lost none of its actuality as revealed in the trends of contemporary materials science.
