During the last two decades, the physico-chemical modification of biomass via extrusion has become an important field of research with great potential to produce materials with new properties. New technologies that allow for the efficient conversion of previously unstable materials and/or blending of immiscible polymers offer opportunities for developing new bio-based products with unique properties. Some of these technologies should allow for a nice balance between the desired properties and effective methods for processing to be successful. In addition to the academic interest in these kinds of systems, there is industrial interest due to increasing environmental and economic concerns in recent years.
Moreover, replacing existing synthetic procedures with eco-friendly and sustainable processing strategies will open the door to better designed reactors as well as the use of alternative energy resources. One interesting new strategy is to combine supercritical carbon dioxide or irradiation technologies with reactive extrusion to create a wide range of applications in the food and non-food markets. Some examples of applications for biomass-based composites are for filtration devices, membranes, non-woven and paper type products, foams, structural composites, nanocomposites, coatings, fibers, films, biofuels, and electrical devices.
The editors believe that in the future many more extrusion reactions will be developed, and that such reactions will help to simplify existing time- and resource-consuming conventional procedures. Extrusion processes offer the potential to transform the use of biomass to produce renewable, sustainable products in ways currently unreported by conventional processes. The future for the application of the extrusion combined technology looks bright on an industrial scale.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
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 Reader's Corner, Inc., Raleigh, North Carolina, U.S.A., +1 919-828-7024, 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. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
Shipping terms
Shipping costs are based on books weighing 2.2 LB, or 1 KG. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required.
