They each have their properties that render them useful for certain applications such as the water solubility of alginate, the thermo-sensitivity of chitosan, the abundance of cellulose and starch, or the cell adhesion and proliferation of gelatin and collagen. This Special Issue will explore the design, synthesis, processing, characterization, and applications of new functional natural-based polymers.BiochemistrybicsscBiology, life sciencesbicsscResearch and information: generalbicssc2-furaldehyde3D printing4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinolacemannanacetylationactivated carbonadhesive hydrogelsadsorptionaerogelsagro-byproductalbumin depositionalginatealoe veraalpha celluloseammonia oxidase geneanionic hydrogelanisotropyannealinganti-adhesionanti-inflammatoryantibacterial activityantibacterial potentialantimicrobialantimicrobial activitiesantimicrobial activityaqueous mediumAsphodelaceaeBacillus amyloliquefaciensBacillus licheniformisbacterial cellulosebanana peelbio-based polyurethanesbiochemistrybioconversionbiodegradable polymersbiopolymersbiosorbentbirch woodblood circulationBox-Behnken designCactaceaecarboxymethyl cellulosecellulosecellulose acetatecellulose derivativescellulose papercellulose-citratecellulose-derived polyolchemical modificationchicken feetchitinasechitinous fishery wasteschitosancircular dichroismCNCCo NPscold plasma coatingcollagenCoNi nanocompositecontact lensconventional fillerscoppercrab shellscrosslinkingcrystallizationcustomizationcytotoxicitydate palm trunk meshdecolorizationdecomposition mechanismdegradationdielectric propertiesdissolutionDoEdouble-cross-linked networkselectron irradiationelectrospinningelongation at breakemulsion capacityenhanced strainesterification reactionethylene glycoleuropiumextraction optimizationextrusionflexor tendon repairflocculantfood applicationsfood packagingfood qualityfree radical polymerizationFTIRfunctionalized materialsgelatineglutaraldehydeglycerolgraft copolymerizationgraphene oxidehyaluronic acidhydrogelhydrogelshydrophobic modificationhydrophobizationinjection moldingionic conductivityKomagataeibacterlaccaselatexlight conversion filmligninlignocelluloselignocellulosic fiberslignocellulosic wastelubricantlyophilizationMalva parvifloramechanical characterizationmechanical propertiesmelaninmelt processingmethacryloyl mucinmethylene bluemicrobial infectionsmicroflora N cycleMimosa pudica mucilageMnO2model studiesmucilageN-acetyl-D-glucosaminenanocellulosenanocompositenanocompositesnanofertilizernanofibersnanohydrogelnanomaterialsnanoparticlesnatural mediatorsnatural polymersnatural rubberneural networknisinNO-donornutrient use efficiencyoil palm biomass wasteOpuntia ficus-indicaPaenibacilluspectinpectin polysaccharidepectinasepeptidespH and rumen temperaturepH-responsive on-off switchingphenolphysicochemical propertiespoly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoatepoly(lactic acid)polyethylene oxidepolyhydroxyalkanoatespolymer electrolytepolymer-based constructspolymeric matricespolysaccharidepolyurethane compositespomelo albedoporcine gastric mucinpore structurepotato starchpre-treatmentprebioticsprepolymersprocess parameterprotozoapyrolysisquantitative polymerase chain reactionquantum dotrelease modelresponse surface methodologyrheologyrice husk ashsalt crosslinking agentsemisynthetic polymerssensitizationsensorial qualityslow releasesoil N contentspecified risk materialsstabilitystretchable bacterial cellulosesucrolyticsuperabsorbentsurface modificationsurface plasmon resonancesurface roughnessswellingtannintensile testthermal degradation kineticsthermal propertiesthin filmtopical releasetribologyvitamin Cwater-retaining agentwheat branwound dressingswound healingX-ray photoelectron spectroscopyzero valent ironzero-order releaseBiochemistryBiology, life sciencesResearch and information: generalMignon Arnedt1322451Mignon ArnothBOOK9910595079003321Functional Natural-Based Polymers3035022UNINA
