| Sumario: | The aim of this book is to introduce readers to the unique aspects of keratin and inform them of the possible opportunities to develop various bioproducts from keratins. Chapter 1 discusses the structure and properties of keratin from various sources. Specifc applications of keratin extracted from different sources are discussed in Chapters 2-10. Applications discussed include keratins as absorbents, reinforcements or matrices for composites, hydrogels, fbres and even as supercapacitors. Major discussions in chapters are focused on products and their properties and applications. Although this book introduces readers to various bioproducts developed from keratin, the information provides only a 'favour' of the available literature. Readers are encouraged to refer to the cited literature for complete details on processing and development of bioproducts from keratins. -- Preface. |
