Annual Plant: Sources of Fibres, Nanocellulose and Cellulosic Derivatives

摘要: Natural fibre consumption is constantly increasing around the world, even in countries where wood resources are very limited. Due to that, Academicians and Industries show interest in the exploitation of agricultural residues or marine biomass which are likely to represent a new source of cellulosic fibres for various applications. This strategy has already been adopted for several agricultural wastes available in different countries, such as Portugal, India, Malaysia, Iran, Sudan and/or Tunisia. The search for new substitute materials, which respect the environment (in any case regarding the rational recovery of biomass waste), represents one of the interests of our research and constitutes one of its main objectives for this book. This book is devoted to presenting the advantage to use annual plants as sources for the production of fibres and cellulose derivatives with a focus on their processing, properties and …
