Opis

This book shows how jute waste is collected from industry and used as a cheaper source to extract and use cellulose. Novel environment-friendly methods are explored for surface modification of natural fibers. The advantages of using biocomposites are listed and the author shows how they can be used effectively as secondary structural parts.

Recenzje

"The present work is an ideal supplementary, well-written, succinct and accessible book for anyone interested in the scientific research on jute-based composites." (Bogdan-Marian Tofanica, Cellulose Chemistry and Technology, Vol. 53 (7-8), 2019)
