About the Book

This book offers a comprehensive exploration of bio-polymeric materials, with a special focus on their interfacial properties. It covers the latest advancements in bio-polymer applications at interfaces, examining their chemical structures, biological foundations, modifications, and diverse applications. The discussion highlights these materials as potential replacements for fossil-based products, while also demonstrating their broader capabilities that extend beyond simple substitution of petrochemical materials. The focus is on understanding the interfacial science of these materials, particularly the key functional groups, physical phenomena, and interactions that occur in specific environments. The book features contributions from experts in the respective fields, making it a reference for scientists, academicians, practitioners, and students who are involved in the development and application of sustainable materials. Key features Provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary overview of bio-based polymers at interfaces Explores the latest cutting-edge developments and applications from a materials science, physical science, and polymer science perspective Emphasises the interfacial properties of bio-polymers and how they impact their respective fields of use Covers a wide range of applications including bio-based polymeric surfactants, adhesives and coatings, bio-medical applications and interfacial adsorption Concludes with a chapter on end-of-life cycle strategies for bio-based materials, including degradation, reuse, and recycling

Table of Contents:
Introduction: Why are bio-based materials at interfaces of interest? Surface properties of bio-based materials Bio-based polymeric surfactants Bio-based adhesives Bio-based coatings Bio-medical applications Interfacial adsorption by bio-based materials Bio-based gas barriers Bio-based foam materials Composites End of life cycle

About the Author :
Kai Zhang is a Professor and Head of the Department for Wood Technology and Wood based Composites at Georg-August-University of Göttingen, Germany. He studied at Hefei University of Technology (B.Eng.), China, and Dresden University of Technology (M.S. and Ph.D., 2011), Germany. After completing research at Dresden University of Technology, the Pennsylvania State University, and Darmstadt University of Technology, he joined the University of Göttingen in 2015. His group’s research focuses on using bio-based renewable compounds to create functional materials for sustainable development. Philip Biehl is a postdoctoral researcher at the Department for Wood Technology and Wood-based Composites at the Georg-August-University of Göttingen, Germany. He studied at Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg (B.S.), Germany, and Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena (M.S. and Ph.D., 2020), Germany. He joined the University of Göttingen in 2021. His main research area is the preparation of functional amphiphilic bio-based compounds for the sustainable development of surface coatings.
