Beschreibung
Addresses a Growing Need for the Development of Cellular and Porous Materials in IndustryBuilding blocks used by nature are motivating researchers to create bio-inspired cellular structures that can be used in the development of products for the plastic, food, and biomedical industry. Representing a unified effort by international experts, Biofoams
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"...a sound and useful text for novices to the area of foam physics, as well as those wishing to understand particular challenges and characteristics of bio-based cellular materials."-Dr. Jan Engmann, Nestle Research
"...the book considers practically significant, interrelated topics of biobased foams and cellular materials. A similar collection of reviews is not known to me."
-Yury Shchipunov, Institute of Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences
"The structure of the entire book as well as the content of the single chapters is very meaningful. The book is focusing on a hot subject and this book is a high quality work."
-Ingrid Volker Altstaedt, University of Bayreuth
