Description
Further Details Title: Poly(lactic acid) Science and Technology Condition: New Description: Biodegradable polymers from renewable resources are sought after for many purposes, from packaging materials in food to biomedical applications. Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) is a well-known biopolymer derived from corn starch or sugar cane used in different food packaging and artificial bones and scaffolds. Poly(lactic acid) Science and Technology first introduces the basic concepts of PLA and then covers PLA synthesis and polymerization, processing, characterization and physical properties of PLA, PLA-based nano-biocomposites, the main applications in active packaging and as biomaterials for tissue engineering, degradation and biodegradation of PLA and finally industrial and legislative issues. This interdisciplinary approach provides readers with a general overview of all relevant aspects related to PLA including fundamental issues, innovative applications, new types of processing and emerging applications, modification of PLA, life cycle assessment, bio-additives, bio/degradation and sustainability and international regulations. Experts provide a complete resource and whole perspective on PLA covering scientific, ecological, social and economic issues. The book will appeal to chemists, food technologists and materials engineers as well as researchers interested in bio-based and biodegradable polymers and composites.

Great quality and awesome value for the vinyl. The vinyl arrived in great condition and as described by the seller. The appearance was amazing and exactly how I imagined it. The shipping of the vinyl was very good and the package had accurate tracking information while in transit. The packaging was well done and the vinyl was safe and protected when received. Thank you to the seller for a great transaction and an even better experience. I look forward to doing business with you again!

arrived a tad late, but the customer service was absolutely INCREDIBLE. never had such good service from an online shop before- they even offered to replace had it not shown up by the end of the week (luckily it did!) item was brand new (still sealed) and packaged really well- good price too for a resell. completely unscathed arriving here. 10/10, would buy from this seller/shop again in the future. thank you for answering all my questions and being so kind, olaya!
