Elastomeric Nanocellulose Composites provides an in-depth study of recent developments in this fast-evolving research field. This book covers diverse aspects of materials engineering, surface treatments, and fabrication of green nanocomposites. It consolidates recent studies and qualitative findings on the incorporation of a myriad of nanocellulose variants into various types of elastomer matrices with the main goal of enhancing its mechanical integrity and potentially phasing out conventional elastomer fillers. The current market is likewise discussed in detail. This book will provide an in-depth study of current developments of nanocellulose incorporated elastomer composites and their applications.
The book will be an essential reference resource for material scientists, academic and industrial researchers, and technologists covering all aspects in the field. Carbon black and silica are currently used as fillers in elastomer-based composites, but the use of these reinforcing agents is not sustainable or eco-friendly. Therefore there is a need to look for more sustainable filler materials for elastomers.
