Abstract
Plant-sourced materials (starch, cellulose, and other polysaccharides), animal products (proteins), and polymers produced chemically from naturally generated monomers (polylactic acid or PLA) are becoming less attractive. Accordingly, the development of nanocomposites by combinations of polymers and inorganic compounds from entirely or partially renewable resources allow exceptional attributes and attracted attention in areas ranging from materials science to biology or medicine. It was shown that nanoscale reinforcements in inorganic composite materials delivered the characteristics enhancement such as decreased hydrophilicity, increased mechanical qualities substantially, and enhanced bioactivity compared to synthetic and natural polymers, which did not display these properties on their own. Indeed, the development of novel biodegradable inorganic nanocomposites has reduced the possible human health risks associated with the pharmaceutical and pesticide sectors through nano-based agricultural commodities and the discovery of enhanced eco-friendly bioactive compounds. The chapter aims to provide details of nanocomposites based on biodegradable polymers and inorganic nanocomposites, preparation methods from wet to dry approaches, and recent applications, especially in the biomedical and healthcare sectors. This emerging idea will enhance the scope of bionanocomposites materials for sustainable products development with improved properties than commercially existing synthetic or natural polymer-based biodegradable materials.
