Green Nanocomposite from Biodegradable Polymer and Organically...

Green nanocomposites are the wave of the future and are considered as the next generation of materials. Biopolymers are now moving into the mainstream, and the polymers that are biodegradable or based on renewable "feedstock" may soon be competing with commodity plastics. To find new applications of biopolymers through innovative technology is a formidable task for scientists. One of the most promising ways to improve the properties of biopolymers is through nanotechnology. Authors: A. K. Mohanty, L. T. Drzal, M. Misra, A. Wibowo, R. Schalek, Michigan State University, E.
