Abstract
This chapter presents the recent advances in the field of polyvinyl alcohol-based biocomposites and bionanocomposites and their new challenges and opportunities. In this chapter, we will be discussing mainly short abstract for all chapters in this book, with different topics, such as biodegradation study of polyvinyl alcohol-based biocomposites and bionanocomposites, polyvinyl alcohol-based biocomposites and bionanocomposites: significance and applications, practical step toward commercialization, polyvinyl alcohol/cellulose-based biocomposites and bionanocomposites, polyvinyl alcohol/starch-based biocomposites and bionanocomposites, polyvinyl alcohol/polylactic acid–based biocomposites and bionanocomposites, biomedical applications of polyvinyl alcohol-based bionanocomposites and hybrid interpolymeric complexes.
Keywords: Polyvinyl alcohol, biocomposite, bionanocomposites, biodegradation, nanocomposites, hybrid interpolymeric complexes, biomaterials
1.1 Biodegradation Study of Polyvinyl Alcohol-Based Biocomposites and Bionanocomposites
PVA applications cover the research areas of formulation films, synthesis of coatings, adhesives products, and emulsion polymerization. Globally, PVA production and consumption was assessed nearly 1.124 million tons in 2016. Polyvinyl alcohol ...
