Advanced Bionanocomposite Materials: Innovations for Sustainable Development
About this ebook
The synergy between these materials results in composites that are not only high performing but also environmentally friendly. This is crucial for developing sustainable materials that can replace conventional petroleum-based composites, which are often linked to significant environmental degradation.
Furthermore, this book examines the diverse applications of bionano composites in various sectors such as packaging, construction, automotive, and biomedical fields. This book serves as a vital resource for researchers and industry professionals interested in sustainable materials that aligns with the UNDP SDGs 2030 target.
In addition to students, teachers, and researchers in the areas of firm behavior, public economics, public administration, and public policy, this book is also of great interest to policy makers, planners, and non-government agencies who are concerned with understanding and addressing issues related to the cooperation of government and social capital in developed and developing countries.
