About this Research Topic
Nanotechnology in the realm of sustainable materials emphasizes the processing and degradation of biopolymeric nanomaterials and green rubbers. These materials leverage unique properties from their nanoscale structure and biologically-derived elements, catalyzing advancements across various sectors such as healthcare, food safety, packaging, and environmental sustainability. Their adoption highlights a shift towards renewable resources and underscores the importance of biodegradability in reducing industrial environmental impact.
This Research Topic aims to deepen our understanding and enhance the technological approaches related to biopolymeric materials and green rubbers. By focusing on the dual objectives of optimizing processing techniques and advancing degradation methods, the research seeks to elevate both the functional quality and environmental compliance of these materials. Key goals include enhancing the precision of extrusion processes for standardized production, and innovating degradation practices to minimize post-use impacts.
To gather further insights in the domain of sustainable material technology, we welcome articles addressing, but not limited to, the following themes:
- Biocompatibility and applications in regenerative medicine.
- Techniques for controlled drug release using biopolymeric materials.
- Environmental impacts and lifecycle assessments of green rubbers.
- Advancements in 3D printing of biopolymers for industrial applications.
- Case studies on the use of biopolymeric materials in automotive parts.
- Research on nanostructured biopolymers for food packaging applications.
