Description

Polymers are composed of macromolecules of high molecular weight formed by the repeated union of small molecules known as monomers. Polymer materials over other materials such as metals and ceramics, are of light weight and hence extensively used. The use of renewable raw materials can provide a substantial activity for a sustainable society and environment. Natural polymer composites can provide an alternative to increasingly scarce raw materials from plants and animals. 2017 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
