Arrieta, Alexandra Muñoz-BonillaBasel, Switzerland :MDPI,2019.1 electronic resource (342 p.)9783038979623 3038979627 This book collects the articles published in the Special Issue "Polymeric Materials: Surfaces, Interfaces and Bioapplications". It shows the advances in polymeric materials, which have tremendous applications in agricultural films, food packaging, dental restoration, antimicrobial systems, and tissue engineering. These polymeric materials are presented as films, coatings, particles, fibers, hydrogels, or networks. The potential to modify and modulate their surfaces or their content by different techniques, such as click chemistry, ozonation, breath figures, wrinkle formation, or electrospray, are also explained, taking into account the relationship between the structure and properties in the final application. Moreover, new trends in the development of such materials are presented, using more environmental friendly and safe methods, which, at the same time, have a high impact on our society.Artificial musclechitosangraphene oxideantifouling coatingstissue engineeringbiodegradablepolymer cross-linkingUV/ozoneinmiscibilitybioapplicationsantibacterialpolypropylenedegradationprotein-repellent polymermicro- and nanopatterned filmsoral biofilmsbio-basedcomposite filmsstimuli-responsive materials/smart surfacessurface modification/functionalizationcaries inhibitionsuperhydrophobicblendsnanosecond laser surface modificationbiofoulingdegenerative disc diseasesurface-attached polymer networktotal disc replacementsurface wettabilitybonding agentspolydimethylsiloxanenatural biofilmsElectrical stimulationmicroparticleshemicellulosessuperhydrophilicfossilsurface segregationhoneycombprolonged drug releasehydrogelconformational entropyElectroactive biomaterialsantimicrobialABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene)intervertebral disccalcium chloridesustainablebiodegradable polymersfriction and wearDrug deliveryalginate modificationbreath figuresspinal fusionblends and (nano)compositescompositesantimicrobial polymerperiodontal pathogenspolymeric compositesscaffoldscorn stalk fiberworn surface morphologyirradiancefriction compositeantimicrobial coatingsgradient wrinklesporous surfacesElectrically conductive polymersoxygen barrier propertyfood packagingspinal anatomySmart compositesrecyclingpackaginghybridsbio-based polymerscoatingspoly(x-chlorostyrene)eco-friendlymultidimensional scale analysissingle-stranded conformation polymorphismBioelectric effectspray dryingherniated discFernández-García Marta1786628Echeverría CoroArrieta Marina PMuñoz-Bonilla AlexandraScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910346680603321Polymeric Materials4318526UNINA
