The growing global emphasis on sustainability and the environmental challenges posed by synthetic polymers, such as plastics, has created an urgent need for eco-friendly alternatives. Natural polymers, particularly mucilage and gums, represent a promising solution due to their biodegradability, renewable nature, and wide availability. The book Natural Polymers serves as a comprehensive, cutting-edge resource for understanding the full potential of mucilage and gums as natural polymers. By exploring the extraction, characterization, modification, and application of these biopolymers, this book provides valuable insights that span across academic research, industrial innovation, and sustainable development.
