Synopsis

Provides an authoritative resource on paper-based functional materials for advanced research, engineering innovation, and industrial application

The rapid advancement of paper-based functional materials marks a transformative moment in modern materials science. Once primarily associated with writing, printing, and packaging, paper has evolved into a versatile, multifunctional platform that integrates advances from chemistry, biology, engineering, and nanotechnology. With properties such as high mechanical strength, superior conductivity, flame resistance, and biocompatibility, paper-based functional materials are gaining recognition for their applications in flexible electronics, food preservation, biomedical devices, sensors, and energy storage systems.

Paper-Based Functional Materials: Preparation and Applications provides an in-depth and systematic examination of the foundations, preparation methods, and application prospects of this emerging class of materials. Designed to progress from basic principles to applied technologies, the book covers high-performance starch-based papers, nanocellulose composites, hydrophobic and oleophobic papers, thermal insulating and flame-retardant structures, as well as advanced functional papers for detection and separation. Combining traditional papermaking expertise with cutting-edge functionalization strategies, contributors with direct experience in applied papermaking research and technology highlight the role of cellulose-based materials in meeting global sustainability goals and in substituting petroleum-based plastics.

Uniting theory, methodology, and practice in a single, comprehensive volume, Paper-Based Functional Materials: Preparation and Applications:

Explores cross-disciplinary advances integrating chemistry, biology, and engineering in paper-based functional materials
Details synthesis and characterization methods for high-performance starch, nanocellulose, and fiber-based papers
Highlights applications in flexible electronics, energy storage, environmental remediation, and biomedical engineering
Examines specialized functions such as hydrophilicity, oleophobicity, conductivity, flame retardancy, and filtration
Outlines prospects for replacing plastics with cellulose-based solutions aligned with sustainability initiatives
Features extensive case studies from commercial engineering and industrial practice

Paper-Based Functional Materials: Preparation and Applications is an essential reference for graduate-level courses in materials science, polymer chemistry, chemical engineering, and sustainable design, and can be adopted as a recommended text in advanced engineering curricula. It is equally valuable for researchers, R&D engineers, and industry professionals working in papermaking, biobased materials, and functional product development.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Books-by-Floh, Paderborn, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
