Riassunto

This book provides the whole spectrum of polysaccharides from basic concepts to commercial market applications. Chapters cover various types of sources, classification, properties, characterization, processing, rheology and fabrication of polysaccharide-based materials and their composites and gels. The applications of polysaccharides include in cosmetics, food science, drug delivery, biomedicine, biofuel production, marine, packaging, chromatography and environmental remediation. It also reviews the fabrication of inorganic and carbon nanomaterials from polysaccharides. The book incorporates industrial applications and will fill the gap between the exploration works in the laboratory and viable applications in related ventures.

Dalla quarta di copertina

A unique and comprehensive resource serving both researcher and industrialist

Polysaccharides are versatile and abundant biopolymers derived from natural resources which have emerged as a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to conventional polymers or traditional plastics.

This book presents the entire spectrum of polysaccharide-related topics—from basic concepts to commercial market applications. The 32 chapters cover various sources, classifications, properties, characterizations, processing methods, rheologies and fabrica­tions of polysaccharide-based materials and their composites and gels. Also covered are the applications of polysaccharides in cosmetics, food science, drug delivery, biomedicine, biofuel production, packaging, chromatography and environmental remediation. In addition to incorporating industrial applications and filling in the gap between exploratory works in the laboratory and viable applications in related ventures, this book also reviews the fabrication of inorganic and carbon nanomaterials from polysaccharides.

Audience

The book will have a wide readership among academic researchers and industrial engineers and technologists working on polysaccharides-based solutions in chemistry, biotechnology, nanotechnology, pharmaceutical sciences, polymer science, food science, environmental engineering, agriculture and the biomedical field.
