    Mechanical and physical performance of the advanced biopolymer-based composites with addition of filler and challenges with additive manufacturing
    (Elsevier, 2021) Hanim, M.A. Azmah; Tahir, S.M.; Jung, D.W.; Calin, R.
    The interest regarding biopolymer-based composites are growing with the aim in mind to improve the quality of life with extended trend of life expectancy. Biopolymer-based composite have the prospect of being the base material for implants, prosthetic limbs, prosthetic organs, drug-delivery system, and others. Aside from synthetic source of monomers, bio-derived or naturally sourced monomer is also the trend to be explored for renewable source of polymers. By doing so, the physical and mechanical aspect of the biopolymer composites need to be look into other than its interaction with the human body. Filler is one way to modify the properties. Additive manufacturing is also a lucrative prospect that will be a big game changer in the biotechnology industry. Combination of renewable materials, filler, and additive manufacturing is the future of biopolymer composite. This chapter briefly discusses different types of synthetic and natural polymers available, current fillers, their effect on some of the mechanical and physical properties, and challenges faced in applying this material to additive manufacturing. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd.

    PLA-based bionanocomposites in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
    (Elsevier, 2021) Azmah Hanim, M.A.; Calin, R.; Jung, D.W.
    Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine explore rehabilitation of the affected human body by guiding the healing process to promote cell regeneration. The procedure reduces the need for multiple invasive surgeries, increases the probability and speed for self-healing, and possibly in the near future, it will also have the ability to replace major organs and tissues that have been damaged without the need for human donors. Other than the structure, the material is an important aspect in promoting the regeneration of cells. This chapter explores the possibility of using PLA and its bionanocomposite polymers as the candidate material for tissue engineering. The different types of nanofillers and their manufacturing methods are discussed to see the different effects they have on cell regeneration. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved.
