Bio-polymer composites have gained much popularity for the development of eco-friendly devices and biodegradable products. Clean, pollution-free environment and reduction of waste materials is the need of the hour. Being biocompatible and biodegradable, these polymers offer a solution. The utilization of bio-polymer composite is not limited as an alternative to the petrochemical-based material but these are progressively being equipped in electronics, medicine, pharmaceutics, construction, automobile industry, packaging, adhesive industry and so forth. The smart bio-polymers are light-weight, possess higher strength, good thermal properties, low density and require less energy while integrating and assembling. As green technology is the demand of the future, the production of biodegradable composites, bio-binders and bio-fibers is the toughest challenge. This review paper strives to specifically address the mechanical and electrical properties of bio-polymer composites and their applications in electronic and mechanical industries.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
