The concept of biodegradable polymer nanocomposites and the role of nanofillers are discussed in detail. Further, the performances and potential industrial applications of these sustainable polymer nanocomposites are also discussed in brief.enNanocompositesPolylactidePolyhydroxybutyrateSustainable polymerBook ChapterBotlhoko, O.
