They are currently partially or totally produced using fossil-based sources, with evident issues linked to their end of life, as their waste generates an increasing environmental concern. On the contrary, biopolymers and active biomolecules from biobased sources could be used to produce new materials that are highly compatible with the skin and also biodegradable. The final products can be obtained by exploiting safe and smart nanotechnologies such as the extrusion of bionanocomposites and electrospinning/electrospray, as well as innovative surface modification and control methodologies. For all these reasons, recently, many researchers, such as those involved in the European POLYBIOSKIN project activities, have been working in the field of biomaterials with anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties, as well as biobased materials which are renewable and biodegradable. The present book gathered research and review papers dedicated to materials and technologies for high-performance products where the attention paid to health and environmental impact is efficiently integrated, considering both the skin-compatibility of the selected materials and their source/end of life. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $apullulan 610 $abiopolymers 610 $aexopolysaccharides 610 $abiodegradation 610 $abiocompatibility 610 $apoly(lactic acid) 610 $apoly(butylene succinate) 610 $achitin nanofibrils 610 $astarch 610 $askin compatibility 610 $aanti-microbial 610 $apoly(hydroxyalkanoate) 610 $abiopolyesters 610 $abeauty masks 610 $areleasing 610 $askin compatible 610 $apolyhydroxyalkanotes 610 $asugarcane molasses 610 $aantibacterial materials 610 $aessential oils 610 $acoating 610 $apoly(lactide) 610 $achitin-lignin nanocomplex 610 $agrafting from 610 $alactide oligomers 610 $aplatelet-rich fibrin 610 $awound healing 610 $askin wounds 610 $awound dressing 610 $ahyperspectral imaging 610 $aprincipal component analysis 610 $aspectroscopy 610 $achitosan 610 $apartial least squares regression 610 $anir 610 $aactives substances 610 $acn-nl/ga 610 $askin 610 $aantifouling 610 $aantimicrobial 610 $aantiviral 610 $aelectrospinning 610 $abreast implant 610 $aear prosthesis 610 $abiomedical device 610 $achronic wound 610 $abiopolymer 610 $abio-based 610 $asurface modification 610 $ananolignin 610 $aelectrospray 610 $aanti-inflammatory 610 $ablends 610 $aPLA 610 $aPHBV 610 $ananocomposite 610 $atissue engineering 610 $abiodegradable 610 $ananofiber 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aColtelli$b Maria Beatrice$4edt$01325341 702 $aDanti$b Serena$4edt 702 $aColtelli$b Maria Beatrice$4oth 702 $aDanti$b Serena$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557130003321 996 $aHigh Performance Functional Bio-based Polymers for Skin-contact Products$93036770 997 $aUNINA
