It is useful to scientists, engineers, biologists, medical doctors and provides alternative eco-friendly materials to replace the currently used ones with harmful impact on the environment and life. The chapters present different types of alternative materials in diverse areas, such as food packaging materials, materials for construction and agricultural materials. The principles and types of biodegration technologies are described in depth.PPN: PPN: 192338287XPackage identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-145 | ZDB-2-SXRP | ZDB-2-SXCH | ZDB-2-SLR
