Natural polymers: Their blends, composites and nanocomposites: State of art, new challenges and opportunities
The present chapter deals with a brief account on various types of natural polymers such as cellulose, chitin, starch, soy protein, casein, hemicellu-loses, alginates, polylactic acid and polyhydroxyalkanoates etc. Blends, composites and nanocomposites based on these polymers have been very briefly...
