Processing of Biodegradable Polymers 1st Edition

Capture the future of sustainable materials with Processing of Biodegradable Polymers, 1st Edition by Samuel Kenig and Amos Ophir — an essential resource for engineers, researchers, and manufacturers navigating the transition to eco-friendly plastics worldwide.

Begin with a clear understanding of the science and step into practical processing: this book demystifies the thermal, rheological, and mechanical behavior of biopolymers and translates that knowledge into actionable guidance for compounding, extrusion, injection molding, and thermoforming. Case studies and comparative analyses highlight common biopolymers such as PLA, PHA, PBS and blends, while addressing additives, fillers, and compatibilizers that optimize performance for targeted applications.

Specifically tailored for professionals in packaging, medical devices, automotive components, and agricultural films, this volume balances rigorous theory with hands-on troubleshooting — from scale-up challenges to quality control and regulatory compliance. Internationally aware, it references global practices and standards relevant to Europe, North America and Asia, making it a practical companion for multinational teams and local manufacturers alike.

Imagine shortening development cycles, improving process stability, and bringing compostable or recyclable Books to market faster. With clear diagrams, stepwise processing recommendations, and data-driven insights, this book empowers decision-makers to minimize risk while maximizing sustainability and cost-efficiency.
