Description
Biopolymers and biocatalysis in sustainable development
Polymers can play a major role in the pursuit of sustainability and the design of chemical products and processes that are more eco-friendly, biodegradable, and less hazardous. This work explores recent research developments and applications in polymer science and their connections to sustainability and green chemistry. Chapter topics include the use of enzymes for polymers, green sustainable building blocks, and green sustainable films and bioplastics. Scientists, engineers, educators, and
students involved or interested in green polymer chemistry and sustainability will find this book useful.
