Emerging Sustainable and Renewable Composites: From Packaging to Electronics
eBook 정보
Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of the development and characterization of sustainable and renewable composites from fibres such as sugar palm, kenaf, sisal, curau, and coir. They will also learn about new potential materials from such fibres and their potential use in various nanoelectronics applications. Each chapter provides recent insight from some of the field’s most prominent industry and academic professionals. Chapter contributors present valuable case studies and describe related environmental issues, environmental advantages, and challenges. Topics include biodegradability, tensile and other physical properties, and applications. Consequently, readers can apply this knowledge to the further development of sustainable and renewable composites toward their global use in place of petroleum-based materials and in new electronics products.
This book is an invaluable and accessible guide for researchers and postgraduate students of composites engineering and nanotechnology who wish to learn more about composites from tropical fibres and their applications. The practical information will benefit those who wish to advance research in this field and promote the adoption of these materials in areas including packaging and nanoelectronics.
