Abstract

Bio-based materials are renewable and economical in nature for the development of products. Utilization of bio-based materials can be observed in all engineering applications, including packaging, biomedical, separation, etc. These materials can be of different types depending upon chemical structure and origins. This classification of bio-based materials is discussed thoroughly in this chapter. Processing of bio-based materials governs the final texture, morphology, and state of the bio-based materials. In this chapter different processing strategies are discussed, including unmodified, extracted, and derived bio-based materials. Properties of common bio-based materials, such as carbohydrates, proteins, bio-based polymers, bio-based nanomaterials, and bio-derived materials are discussed in corroboration with literature. Finally, a summary and outlook section is appended at the end of the chapter.
